Super Dimension Technology Era

On the northwest coast of Los Angeles City, there is a small community in the suburbs - Green Community.

At this time, this is the temporary settlement area for survivors. More than a hundred survivors are concentrated in this small community. Most of the survivors are young people in good health, and there are relatively few elderly and children.

The community is surrounded by barbed wire and wooden posts, and the survivors are like animals in a zoo.

After encountering an unprecedented biological crisis, most of these survivors are in extremely poor mental condition. Coupled with the recent extreme weather effects, everyone appears listless.

In the evening, the sun has not yet completely sunk below the horizon.

The thin ozone layer has reduced the thermal insulation effect of the atmosphere. The high temperature of 38 degrees Celsius during the day has dropped rapidly, and now it is only about 24 degrees Celsius. By the middle of the night, the temperature will plummet to 15 degrees Celsius.

Without the ozone-breeding bomb of the New Humanity, the weather in Los Angeles would be even more extreme.

A food supply truck drove into the community not far away, stopped and pressed the bell.

Ring ring ring…

The survivors walked out of their houses and lined up numbly, ready to receive food.

The food supply truck opened the side compartment, and inside was a row of large stainless steel barrels. The chef in charge of cooking shouted loudly: "Get in line and start collecting food."

The survivors are divided into groups of 10. They live in the same house and are assisted and managed by the group leader.

Everyone is holding stainless steel lunch boxes, stainless steel chopsticks, spoons, or knives and forks they found in abandoned houses.

Luna Brut, who brought her younger brother with her, received food for the two of them. Everyone's dinner consisted of mashed potatoes, ham sausage, boiled eggs, fried carrots and squid, as well as a fresh tomato and a bottle of purified water.

Everyone was eating on the table in the open space. Many survivors were very hungry. Mainly because the new humans only served lunch and dinner a day, and there was no breakfast.

Originally, Luna Brut wanted to ask about her father, but the food truck left in a hurry today.

After she and her brother finished dinner, they saw an off-road vehicle entering the community, and three men in black got out of the off-road vehicle.

There was an armband hanging on their clothes, with a blue star symbol on it (similar to the United Nations General Assembly logo) and a circle of words around it. Luna did not understand Chinese.

The words in that circle are: [New Human Universe—Supreme Will—Service Committee]

The three of them negotiated with the new human being responsible for the management of the survivor community for more than ten minutes, and then took out some documents and signed them while discussing.

After a while, all the survivors were gathered together, and everyone became uneasy. This was the third time they were gathered together since they came here.

The man in black looked at these sluggish survivors, frowned, and then said in English:

"Hello, I am a clerk at the Civil Affairs Department of the New Human Services Commission North America District in Los Angeles City. My name is Zhang Xiangdong. I have a few things to announce today."

All the survivors waited quietly.

"First, children who are under 12 years old and have no living relatives have two options: accept adoption or be centrally adopted by our service committee. Of course, you also have a third option, which is to refuse."

This incident was a fateful choice for Luna, her brother Kang Ning, and the other three children.

"Second, the rest of the survivor community, starting next week, canceling the free food offerings..."

Before Zhang Xiangdong finished speaking, a group of survivors started to make a noise.

"NO..."

"You can't do this."

"No food? What to do?"

"Shet!"

"You are discriminating..."

"Ruined!"

Zhang Xiangdong, who looked calm, knocked on the table: "Quiet down, if you don't want to lose this week."

The survivors suddenly stopped making trouble.

"We will distribute emergency food to you for a month at a time. You can find a job in Los Angeles within a month. There is a job recruitment list here. Each team leader will pick up a copy later."

After hearing these arrangements, the survivors felt relieved.

"Third, your identity registration and learning Chinese..."

The survivors do not have a new human identity, but a temporary identity, which is a person without political rights and social benefits.

In fact, in addition to these old human survivors, there are also some quasi-new humans who had been rescued by the new humans and had biological computers injected into their bodies, but they were not fully activated.

There are approximately 14.47 million of these quasi-new humans, only a small number of whom have obtained new human status, and the rest have temporary status.

The main reason why they have not obtained the identity of a new human being is that these people are hostile to the new human beings and the supreme will in their hearts, and may have anti-social personalities, cult members, etc.

For these people, the Supreme Will has decided to carry out ideological remolding and labor reform. If they are hopeless, they will continue to be reformed through labor for the rest of their lives.

Moreover, the biological computer has locked their reproductive ability, and temporary identities are not qualified to reproduce.

To obtain the status of a new human being, the basic requirements are level 8 in Chinese language and level 8 in Chinese culture, a certain degree certificate in natural sciences recognized by the Science Committee (at least a bachelor's degree), and an ideological consciousness consistent with the new human society.

There are also a series of other miscellaneous things. Of course, if you are a female temporary status holder, there is a shortcut to marrying a new human male.

However, even if you are the marry-in type, if you want to unlock the right to marry and have children, you must pass the ideological awareness that is in line with the new human society, otherwise there is no need to discuss it.

As for the married type who wants to apply for new human status, the criteria are level 4 in Chinese, level 4 in Chinese culture, and some kind of natural science degree certificate recognized by the Science Committee (at least high school).

In this way, these old humans with temporary identities are gradually transformed. As for the stubborn ones, let them fend for themselves and be eliminated by society.

Judging from the population composition within the new human universe, the total population is 1.54 billion, including more than 1.52 billion new humans and about 15.42 million old humans.

Among the new human beings, Chinese people have an absolute advantage, reaching 1.44 billion, Asian people (yellow people except Chinese) 36.97 million, Latinos 14.36 million, and Europeans 28.69 million.

In fact, the concept of sub-ethnic people is a very vague division. With the strong rise of the Chinese as the main ethnic group, the Japanese, Vietnamese, Thai, Inuit, Koreans, etc. among the sub-tribes will be completely assimilated.

After all, the official languages ​​of New Humanity are only Chinese, English and other languages, which are generally not used internally. Whether online, academically, socially, or at work, Chinese has become the general trend.

This subtle influence, coupled with the terrible assimilation ability of the Chinese people, even the Slavs, Germans, and Anglo-Saxons among Europeans will be diluted and assimilated.

Although a small number of people are opposed to this kind of cultural unification, the Chinese, as the subject of the highest will and with the historical tradition of great unification, will not allow this kind of cultural separatism.

Therefore, a series of targeted plans were launched by the supreme will.

This includes allowing new Chinese people to adopt other ethnic groups and providing comprehensive Chinese education and training for those children.

For example, the Luna siblings were either adopted by Chinese new human families or intensively trained by the service committee.
