Chapter 798 - 383: Jialanluo Clan (Part 2)

The Jialanluo Clan is one of the few interstellar species within the interstellar alliance that still possesses a Royal Family. Commoners follow the orders of the Royal Family, and those born into royalty are deemed superior to commoners from the start, with a higher talent baseline... Many intelligent beings in the interstellar alliance cannot comprehend this reality, and some even consider the Jialanluo Clan as a symbol of backward thinking, believing they inherently possess a servile nature!

However, the truth is quite the opposite. Not only are they not backward, but they are incredibly advanced and developed, possessing top-notch technology and research in the entire universe, contributing indelibly to interstellar progress. Why then does such a species still have a Royal Family?

Many intelligent beings cannot comprehend this, and the Jialanluo Clan themselves rarely mention it. Even when asked, they remain highly secretive. This actually relates to the secrets of their heritage: once the Jialanluo Clan loses its entire Royal Family, extinction is not far away.

Even the well-informed Su Jiameng doesn’t know this secret; she only knows the Royal Family is extremely important to the Jialanluo Clan. As for how deep this importance runs and why it’s so crucial, she is entirely in the dark, completely blind.

Outsiders know of the Jialanluo Clan’s strength, but they are unaware of the deadly genetic defect present within this species!

Every Jialanluo knows that if this defect fell under external control, the consequences would be catastrophic, at best leading to manipulation by others, at worst leading to extinction! This is also why they never mention this defect to outsiders! Even those who betray the Jialanluo Clan never leak a word of it, keeping the secret from the day they know it until it’s taken to their grave.

The Royal Family, the pinnacle existence of the Jialanluo Clan, those at the top of the pyramid, are also the key to suppressing the genetic defect. Every new Royal Family newborn inherently carries a genetic code that mitigates the defect, and only then can commoners dare to give birth to that generation’s children. The Royal Family’s genetic code spreads horizontally to suppress the defect...

This way of inheritance is unique among all interstellar species. While it has significant advantages, it also comes with considerable drawbacks. Once all the Royal Family perish, even if a new generation is born, they would carry severe genetic defects, lacking the previous enhanced talents and combat power, no longer possessing such astonishing gifts and starting points...

Though it seems like a risky bet, the advantages are notable. The Jialanluo Royal Family are universally recognized as having excellent genes, or rather, they are the most perfect living genetic database! After a newborn is born, besides spreading the genetic code horizontally, they also pass on a small segment of superior genes to the new life of the same generation, elevating their genetic level...

No matter how outstanding the union of a man and a woman, they might still bear disappointing offspring, but such troubles almost never occur with the Jialanluo Clan. With such a phenomenal trump card, their genetic level naturally ranks among the top in the universe, undoubtedly reigning supreme.

However...these Jialanluo Clan remnants are facing a very desperate situation. Due to the betrayal by the Divine’s Remnant Clan and hostility from other species, their Royal Family numbers reduced by ninety percent at the beginning of the upheaval. The few survivors also passed away one by one for various reasons, and the appearance of new Royal members halted, meaning no new life had appeared for a long time.

Now, only one seriously ill Royal member remains, and before the upheaval, this person was on the fringes of royalty, unaware of many secrets or how to deal with this situation. In other words, the Jialanluo Clan now truly faces the predicament of extinction, and even despite attempts to give birth to new life, various genetic defects were present, and children would frequently die young.

Utterly despondent, the Jialanluo Clan remnants have lost hope for their race’s future, harboring tremendous resentment towards the Human Alliance for watching them die without offering help, even adding insult to injury! Because of this anger, they joined in the warfare against the stationed brigade.

Yet, fortune still smiled upon them, as they discovered a pure-blooded Royal among the brigade’s warriors! Such a pure and enticing bloodline, intoxicating to behold, carrying a pedigree far nobler than the bedridden Royal...

While elated at the Royal’s continued existence, they pondered another detail. Why would a member of the Jialanluo Royal Family appear in the Human Alliance’s stationed brigade? Even assisting this brigade in combat? Some twisted minds quickly imagined a scenario, suspecting that the Human Alliance had seized the opportunity amidst chaos years ago to deliberately steal the Royal bloodline, attempting to crack their species’ secrets!
