Bright Sword starts with the grenade flat.

Chapter 491 They are all young people

What is more crucial is that the gene enhancement drug repaired Qin Huairu's cell mitochondria, allowing the energy supply of every cell in Qin Huairu's body to return to its peak when she was in her twenties.

Therefore, the humans on the Wandering Blue Star today, including Qin Huairu, are all young people, and there is not a single elderly person to be seen. After all, no human on the Wandering Blue Star has reached the theoretical lifespan yet!
Even the oldest person now, Liu Xiu, is only a little over 200 years old, and he still has 70 or 80 years to live to the maximum of 300 years!

Under the influence of genetic enhancement drugs, only when the cells reach the last division will they show signs of aging.

Therefore, once you show signs of aging, it naturally means that your end is near.

Of course, it is precisely because of this that on the Wandering Blue Planet, no matter if a person is a hundred years old or a young man in his twenties, it is impossible to tell their age just by looking at their appearance.

So this solves a problem, that is, there is no problem of relying on seniority. After all, from the perspective of body function alone, the problem of mitochondria has been solved.

Therefore, there is no difference in physical functions whether he is a young man in his twenties or an old man in his twenties.

So naturally there is no such excuse as I have to give up my seat because I am old and in poor health.

Of course, this also brings up a more troublesome problem, which is that the population is somewhat difficult to control.

After all, the physical functions of a 200-year-old and a 20-year-old boy are similar, so you can imagine how great the requirements for reproduction are.

Of course, it's not just men, women are the same as well. It's not difficult to imagine how many children a woman whose body functions almost always remain in her twenties and who can live to three hundred years old can give birth to in her lifetime.

You know, for women who have not been injected with genetic enhancement drugs, the best childbearing age is around 20 to 40 years old.

And considering rest and other things, it is still easy for a normal woman to give birth to six children in her lifetime.

In this way, the population of the Wandering Blue Planet can triple every forty years. This calculation result is naturally proven, such as Li Ding's argument that the population reached 1.2 billion in the forty years from the 1950s to the 1990s.

But things are different now. With the average life expectancy of 300 years and people being able to give birth before they die, if birth control is relaxed, it would be easy for a woman to give birth to a hundred children in her lifetime.

Fortunately, Liu Xiu still had some control over this aspect. After all, if he had so many children, the Wandering Blue Star would be overcrowded.

You should know that there are already nearly 20 billion people on the Wandering Blue Planet.

Originally there wouldn't be so many people, but in order to avoid the explosion of the black hole, the two billion people on the planet Origa VI had to move back to the Wandering Blue Planet.

Fortunately, although the Wandering Blue Planet is crowded with 20 billion people, there is no need to worry about an energy crisis due to energy sources such as nuclear fusion. In addition, there are food synthesis machines, so even if the land on the Wandering Blue Planet does not produce enough food, there is no need to worry about starving to death.

In fact, Liu Xiu also wanted to separate the population on the Wandering Blue Star, but he had no way of finding a suitable planet.

After all, not every star system has planets suitable for human habitation. Some planets are either too small, or there is no oxygen in the atmosphere, or the content of toxic gases is too high.

After all, transforming a planet's atmosphere is an extremely difficult and huge project.

Of course, the more important point is that Liu Xiu discovered that most of the planets suitable for human habitation in this star field have actually been occupied by the Cosmic Alliance. You should know that the current Cosmic Alliance has more than a thousand planets suitable for human habitation, similar to the Wandering Blue Star, and the population on some planets is less than one million, which is really a bit of a waste.

For example, the ocean planet Shansaniya where Qin Huairu is about to participate in the competition is a tourist planet, and its permanent population is less than 10 million.

Of course, this may be because this planet is an ocean planet. After all, unlike the wandering blue planet, the ocean area of ​​this planet occupies 99% of the entire planet, and there are only some small islands on the entire planet.

Although the land area is not large, the temperature on this planet is very average, probably because of the large ocean. Even in winter, the temperature is above 20 degrees, and in summer it does not exceed 30 degrees. The annual average temperature difference is not very large.

Precisely because of the small temperature difference, this planet was developed into a tourist planet by the Space Alliance.

After all, there is no land, so naturally there is no way to build factories or carry out mining. After all, even if we have entered the interstellar age, mining underwater is much more difficult than on land.

Even mining in a vacuum environment is easier than mining underwater. Of course, the main reason is that there are no valuable precious minerals on this ocean planet.

However, unlike Liu Xiu who easily agreed to let Qin Huairu compete, Millie's request to participate was rejected by Kainaer.

But Millie said persistently:
"Why not? As long as I can dominate the competition on this ocean planet Sansania, I will have participated in the competition a hundred times, which will add a glorious page to my experience as the first generation in the universe!"

Kenar was a little confused about Millie's words:

"Participate in a hundred competitions?"

In response to Kaina's doubts, Millie took out her carry-on bag, and then poured out all the certificates in the bag. While pouring, she picked up the trophy and introduced it:

"Look, this is the bronze medal of the Paper Cutting Queen Championship on the planet Gretos, this is the prize of Miss Shaved Ice on the planet Gullpi, and this trophy is the third place of Miss Daruma City on the planet Karalia..."

However, as Millie was talking, she couldn't remember which trophy corresponded to which one. After all, there were ninety-nine trophies! So naturally, she couldn't remember them so clearly.

But when Millie was still thinking about which trophy corresponded to which competition, Kaina projected a virtual screen and pointed at it and said:
"Fuel, food, daily necessities, and various living expenses, our account books are all filled with red ink! This is all because someone got on the spaceship. Do we still have to waste fuel to go to that remote place to participate in a beauty pageant? We don't have the spare money for that!"

Millie could only loudly defend herself against this:
"What does it matter? There has to be some sacrifice! At worst, if you win, I can give you half of the prize money!"

Kaina was worried about this:

"What if we can't win?"

In response to Kaina's concerns, Millie said confidently:

"How is that possible? How can I not win if I participate?"

But in the end, under Millie's assurance, especially if she didn't get the bonus, she would not ask for any wages for future missions completed by the spacecraft!
So after hearing what Millie said, Kenar finally agreed to Millie's request and sent the spaceship to the ocean planet of Sansania to participate in the beauty pageant.
