The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly-Chapter 1035 - 396: Interstellar Survival Live Broadcast (Part 20)

Chapter 1035: Chapter 396: Interstellar Survival Live Broadcast (Part 20)

"Tao Yao, I, my Genetic Chain seems to have stabilized!"

Tao Yao discovered something good and naturally wouldn’t keep it to herself. She quickly ate a few more and then picked a small basket full.

Back at the camp, she distributed the blue fruits to all members of the team.

Everyone trusted Tao Yao greatly, and Tao Yao was the most famous "gourmet" on this live adventure broadcast.

If she claimed the ingredients were good, then they must be really good!

Without hesitation, everyone picked up the fruits and started biting into them.

Uh, this taste... it’s not exactly terrible, but to say it’s delicious would be a stretch.

It was like biting into a mouthful of water.

But just as everyone was feeling a bit let down yet not entirely disappointed, the mixed-race man in the team suddenly shouted.

His name was Allen, and he was once a soldier in the Royal Corps.

With advances in technology, research into the human body and genes had reached a very high level.

Not only had they developed miraculous healing chambers, but they could also maximize human potential, making genes more and more perfect.

But, as the saying goes, "too much is as bad as too little." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Or "blessings and curses go hand in hand."

As humans maximized their own potential, it also triggered a terrifying "incurable disease"—the gene disease.

Once the human body is pushed to the limit, without other aids, its own Genetic Chain is likely to collapse.

At best, unstable genes could turn the originally mighty into weaklings.

At worst, the Genetic Chain could disintegrate, leaving a person crippled or leading to direct death!

Allen was among the first to be diagnosed with "gene disease."

Once the cause was identified, Allen was forced to retire, and the shock greatly disturbed his mental state.

In his twisted state, he even began to want to take revenge on society.

Of course, Allen’s violent acts were stopped, but he was nonetheless sentenced to prison for jeopardizing public safety.

His sentence wasn’t long, only fifteen years.

In the Interstellar era where human lifespan had been extended to one hundred and fifty years, fifteen years was just a small segment of the long river of time.

But Allen still chose to join the adventure live broadcast.

He wasn’t doing it for clemency; he wanted to earn more money to buy gene-targeted drugs.

While these drugs couldn’t completely heal the defects of the Genetic Chain, they could slightly alleviate the condition.

Allen hoped he could hang on for a few more years, survive long enough until technology advanced to a point where genetic diseases could be cured.

Unfortunately, this hope seemed rather slim.

So, Allen was the person in the team with the most unstable mindset.

He was both hateful and pitiable, honest with his teammates yet inexplicably jealous—why did no one else have gene disease, but he was so unlucky?!

Luckily, he met Tao Yao, a girl six years younger than him, who not only gave him a bit of redemption through food but also infected him with her kind and positive emotions.

Allen was no longer as resentful at the world as he had been initially; at most, he would occasionally complain.

But this was within the normal range and wasn’t considered abnormal.

"What? You say your Genetic Chain—no, how do you know it’s become stable?"

Tao Yao was a bit surprised, but her rationality led her to question.

"I, I can’t exactly explain it, just a feeling. Oh, my hearing seems to have improved a bit!"

Allen was too excited, stumbling over his words.

After he got gene disease, his originally normal hearing started to deteriorate.

Without any warning, his left ear went deaf.

The doctors said it was just a precursor to an unstable Genetic Chain.

If it continued to worsen, his brain nerves could be affected too.

A patient diagnosed with gene disease at the same time as him was in the worst condition, becoming brain dead instantly.

Other than breathing, he was practically a living corpse.

At this moment, whether it was an illusion or not, Allen faintly felt his left ear could hear sounds again.

Upon hearing this, Tao Yao exchanged glances with Qiao Hu.

Qiao Hu flipped over, stood up from the ground, picked up a stone, and went to Allen’s side.

He gently tapped a dagger on Allen’s left and right sides with the stone.

Ding!

Ding!

The two soft and crisp sounds made Allen even more excited.

"I heard it! I really heard it! It really seems like my gene disease is improving!"

Allen was laughing and crying, like a madman, though he was a man in his twenties.

"No way! Can gene disease really be healed?"
