"By the way, there is also the New Humanity Project. Today's children are genetically modified before they are born. It is said that their IQs are much higher than ours, and they can kill tigers and lions with their bare hands." Wilson continued.

"What? How can this be possible?" Taylor almost knocked over the table in front of him after hearing this. This was so shocking.

In the era when he was hibernating, gene editing on humans was a heinous crime, and the governments of many countries had specifically legislated to prohibit this behavior.

"It's a very common thing. Have you always thought that children's eyes are strange? Let me tell you, their retinas are the opposite of ours." Wilson said.

"Who is the child?" The nurse said dissatisfiedly: "The hibernation period does not count your age. You are much younger than me."

However, Taylor did not pay attention to the dispute between the two. He keenly discovered one thing, that is, humans have carried out large-scale gene editing on themselves, correcting retinal defects.

"How can this be done? Genetic optimization is likely to be monopolized by a small number of powerful people for future generations. It is nonsense to say that all people are created equal! This is shaking the foundation of democratic politics!" Taylor thought about it and said in surprise.

After hearing this, Wilson also felt something was wrong. If gene editing is monopolized by a small number of powerful people or ethnic groups, it means that the hereditary system and racial discrimination are science.

You must know that when he was hibernating, the United States was claiming to be the "city on a hill" and the "beacon of freedom". How come it actually allows this kind of thing to happen now?

But he had been awake for five or six days, and he didn't feel that there were no new nobles here, and everyone was very friendly.

"This gentleman is the one who thinks more. He must have been a knowledgeable social elite before hibernating, so he would consider such social issues." The nurse said with a mixture of laughter and laughter.

Then she explained seriously: "Your worries are completely unnecessary. Before gene editing was carried out on humans, there was no such thing as family and marriage, let alone family and hereditary inheritance."

"If there is no family and marriage, how do humans reproduce the next generation now?" Taylor asked curiously.

"Everyone is born in an artificial womb and receives unified public education. Private childbirth is illegal in this era. As for the family, it has long ceased to exist." The nurse said with a smile.

"Oh my God." Taylor sighed with emotion. He knew that human beings would definitely change greatly in two centuries, but he still couldn't accept such big changes for a while.

"Let's stop thinking about these messy things and talk about some exciting and good things." Wilson said carelessly: "Didn't I just say that the human space fleet can already defeat the Trisolarans? This is nothing!"

"Ah?!" Taylor was confused after hearing this. Those world-destroying Star Destroyers and space battleships are not powerful, so what can be considered powerful?

"What's really powerful is actually the Great Interstellar Wall designed by a scientist named Cheng Xin, which is the modern solar system defense plan, which is divided into a galaxy defense system and a planetary defense system."

"The first is the planetary defense system. The eight major planets in the solar system have their own planetary defense systems. I don't know the alien defense systems. I only know some information about the earth's defense system."

"The Earth Defense System consists of 13,000 space defense platforms. These defense platforms are located in near-Earth space, and the entire defense network covers the entire earth."

"Each space defense platform weighs 100 million tons and is equipped with various powerful super weapons. The firepower of a space defense platform can destroy the earth's surface in ten minutes."

"One hundred million tons, more than 10,000 pieces, can this resource be consumed?" Taylor doubted. This is even more exaggerated than the super fleet Wilson just mentioned.

"This is nothing. The eight major planets in the solar system now have such defense systems. What is really powerful is the galaxy defense system. That thing is centered on the sun, and its radius is within a certain number of astronomical units."

"The defense radius of the galaxy defense system is 30 astronomical units." The nurse reminded from the side.

"Is the defense area of ​​the Great Interstellar Wall so large?" Taylor asked quickly.

"It's not bad. With the sun as the center, the galaxy defense system can actually only cover the position of Neptune. If the Trisolaran fleet is beyond this distance, it will have to rely on the fleet to attack it." The nurse sighed.

"This is amazing. In my time, it was impossible for human manned spacecraft to cross such a gap, but now such a long distance is a defensive zone." Taylor said with emotion.

"I told your friend before about the strike range of the galaxy defense system, but he didn't seem to be as surprised as you." The nurse on the side said with a smile.

"He was the kind of person who was technologically immune and indifferent to any technological wonders, so he couldn't appreciate this era very well," Taylor explained.

"Hehe." Wilson laughed and said: "This era is really amazing. I can really appreciate it. Since you are curious about why the galaxy defense system can hit so far, I will tell you."

"Because the galaxy defense system is three defense circles surrounding the solar system like an asteroid belt. The main body of these three defense circles consists of more than 400,000 defense platforms and space stations."

"The defense platform of the galaxy defense system also weighs hundreds of millions of tons and is thousands of meters in diameter. It is equipped with various weapon modules and is a giant weapons launch platform."

"A defense system surrounding the solar system? Is this a God's project?" Taylor was shocked when he heard this. Although he had been surprised countless times during this period, he had never been so out of control.

"So I don't encourage you to exchange realistic information." The nurse complained: "The person who was revived in the front couldn't calm down for many days after knowing this, which is not conducive to recovery."

"What's the point of being happy?" Wilson said disapprovingly: "Alice, you have to let me tell you about the spectacular scene of the galaxy defense system to this person."

(Alice is the nurse's name)

"Of course." The nurse known as Alice nodded and said, "But don't tell us any more information. It's not too late to let this gentleman slowly understand the new era after he recovers."

"Of course, of course." Wilson then turned sideways and said: "And in addition to the basic defense platform, the galaxy defense system also has hundreds of giant anti-ship guns, thousands of space fortresses and weapon base stations on satellites."

"Let me tell you how powerful those giant anti-ship guns are. The power of one of their guns is more powerful than ten Star Destroyers, and their effective killing range is tens of billions of kilometers."

"These giant anti-ship guns are deployed near the sun. They are the innermost strategic weapons of the galaxy defense system. It is said that they seem to be relatively close to the production base of some material."
