140 Wave Viruses
Cain approached the auditorium and saw Lurin and Ophelia waiting at the entrance. When the duo saw him, they began to wave their hands.
He was a little surprised as they never agreed to enter the class together, but he still smiled and walked toward them.
“I am glad to see you two. How are you doing?”
“Very well, thanks.”
“Everything is great.”
Lurin and Ophelia answered with large smiles before the trio entered the auditorium. The mont they did it, everybody focused on them, or more specifically, on Cain.
As the N°1 Cadet, everything Cain did beca a source of gossip among the other cadets, with most of them already knowing of his involvent in the Assassination Military Specialization.
Cain did not bother with their stares and just went to his usual seat, with Lurin and Ophelia sitting by his side.
Ophelia would glance at Cain from ti to ti, but unlike the other cadets, the light in her eyes was much softer.
.....
Cain noticed the woman’s eyes but did not say anything. He was not oblivious to her feelings, but they barely knew each other, and she was just going through an infatuation, nothing more.
“By the way, I again apologize for sending the Sinar’s Genetic Coder Guide so late. However, I could not do it without my father’s permission. He had just returned from a mission yesterday, and before that, there was no ti to focus on anything that was not military-related.”
“Don’t worry about it. I really appreciate your help.” Cain imdiately cald Lurin’s worries before expressing his gratitude.
Lurin smiled when he saw the easygoing attitude of Cain and relaxed. He knew that so people would grow extrely arrogant and narcissistic as their fa and power rose, and he was happy that Cain was not one of them.
“Did you have the chance to glimpse the file before the class?”
“Yes, I studied it in detail. It was a very encompassing to and taught a lot.”
Lurin’s eyes widened when he heard that. It would not be hard for soone with the cognitive abilities of Cain to read the entire Sinar’s Genetic Coder Guide, but reading and understanding were two very different things.
Lurin found it hard to believe that Cain could internalize anything from the guide if he read it so fast, but it was not his place to question how others study, so he did not push the subject.
The trio made small talk for a few minutes before a woman began to walk toward the podium. She was one ter and seventy centiters tall, with black hair, blue eyes, and a voluptuous body.
So of the young n in the auditorium showed lascivious stares toward the woman, but it did not last long as they all looked away once she unleashed her aura, making it clear that she was a powerful Wave Champion.
Cain’s eyes narrowed as he felt the strength of the woman. He could not say with certainty, but her cultivation seed to be higher than Major Luma.
Nevertheless, there was sothing that drove Cain’s attention. His eyes glowed with red light as he focused on the teacher.
‘I can barely perceive the true might of her cultivation base, but her Ego Wave seems to be in disorder. It seems that her willpower reached the Late Wave Champion level thanks to her cultivation, but she had yet to enter the First Realm.’
Cain figured out that the woman had yet to find her true nature, so her Ego Eternal Path of Power could not enter the First Realm. Still, since she took so long for it, her Ego Eternal Path of Power would forever take an auxiliary role in battle.
He did not waste too much ti in those thoughts and focused on the woman. Even if what she would teach was already explained in Sinar’s Genetic Coder Guide, a live teacher would always be better.
“My na is Camil, and I will be your teacher for the Genetic Coder Class.”
Camil’s voice was loud, and once total silence reigned in the auditorium, she carried on.
“Genetic Coding can easily be considered the most challenging Profession. We can do wonders as we manipulate the building blocks of life, but a mistake could destroy everything, with people’s lives on the line.
I will not tolerate any incompetence or distractions in my class. If I find one of you not giving your full attention to this class or my teachings, even if it is just one ti, I will expel you on the spot.”
A tense atmosphere inundated the auditorium when the cadets heard Camil’s words. They did not doubt the woman had the power or the intent to carry on with what she had just said. Any mistake, and she would expel them from the class, with the military credits they used to enroll going to waste.
Camil felt the tension and softly nodded. She needed these cadets to understand just how hard becoming a Genetic Coder was and that there would be no room for mistakes in their craft.
“A Genetic Coder can manipulate the fundantal blocks of life, aning the DNA, and they do it through the use of Wave Viruses. We act on an individual’s genes, enhancing their senses, intelligence, emotion control, and even lifespan.
Once you reach a high enough realm, you can generate Wave Viruses capable of granting unique abilities like diamond skin, dragon wings, fire breath, and many more.
Like our cultivation and almost everything else, Genetic Coding is divided into ranks. The key determinant of our rank is the cultivation of the people on whom our Wave Viruses can act.
Every ti we go through a major cultivation breakthrough like the rise from Wave Warrior to Wave Champion, it is not just our physical strength and abilities that are enhanced, but our entire geno as well. That is why we experience holistic improvent and our lifespan obtains such a massive boost.
The first rank is Elentary Genetic Coder, and they can generate Wave Viruses capable of affecting Wave Warriors. The effects of the genetic alterations made by an Elentary Wave Virus are not permanent and can not cause a drastic change to the geno, aning they can only enhance what is already there.
Next cos the Grand Genetic Coder. Those are masters capable of generating Wave Viruses that can alter the geno of a Wave Champion.
Grand Wave Viruses not only can ingrain new abilities and traits into an individual’s geno but can even make them everlasting.”
All the information that Camil was sharing was sothing that Cain had already learned from Sinar’s Genetic Coder Guide, but he still paid full attention to Camil. One never knew when a new piece of information could arrive, not to ntion that even if it was the sa topic, two people could teach it very differently.
“As all of you should have already deduced, the key to our craft is the Wave Virus. They are the ones that will infiltrate the target’s body, reach the DNA, and generate genetic alterations.
To be considered an Elentary Genetic Coder, you must be able to create an Elentary Wave Virus.”
Camil waved her hand, and dozens of tal plates erged from her space ring and floated toward each cadet.
As soon as the plates reached the tables, they expanded, becoming small chambers roughly ten centiters wide and thirty centiters tall. There was a green liquid inside it, and so of the cadets with better sight could glance at extrely tiny things floating in it.
“Those are Genetic Chambers and is where a Genetic Coder makes a Wave Virus.
It would be asking too much for any of you to create a Wave Virus during your first day, but I will need you to build a Vector today!”
Cain’s eyes narrowed as he heard those words. According to what he learned from Sinar’s Genetic Coder Guide, a Vector is responsible for bringing new genetic information to the cells, acting basically as a vehicle that will transport the new genes to their target.
“Vectors are the part of the Wave Virus in charge of the journey. Since they are responsible for the voyage of the new genetic information through the body, a failure ant that the entire Wave Virus would go to waste or, even worse, reach the wrong target.
Genetic Coders classify Vectors into Bronze, Silver, and Gold according to their efficiency and flaws.
Inside the Genetic Chambers are the materials to create ten Elentary Bronze Vectors, which are the easiest ones. Of course, they are also the most inefficient, and no one would buy a Wave Virus with a Bronze Vector. Still, for this exercise, it will be enough.
Today, you must build at least one Elentary Bronze Vector. If you fail to accomplish that, you will be expelled.”
If before the cadets were tense, now they were so anxious that they could barely breathe. That forced them to push their focus to the absolute limit.
“I will now explain the parts of the Vectors and how to build them. You can ask as many questions as you want during your work, but after failing ten tis or if ti is over, I will expel you.”
A virtual screen appeared above Camil the next second with a complete Vector in it and each of its parts by its side.
