Chapter 1015: Chapter 625: Unexpected Complications_3 Chapter 1015: Chapter 625: Unexpected Complications_3 Along the way, there had been countless hardships and dangers, but Quentin Cooper, the backbone of the group, had never faltered. He was always diligent, calm, and composed, with an iron will and impeccable judgnt.
However, this ti the devastating news had almost completely destroyed his will.
The blow was too heavy, even heavier than when the enemy’s reconnaissance force had directly penetrated the core area of the fleet.
As soone well versed in history, he knew the significance of Nora Camp to the people of the 31st century, especially to the sages.
The Empire’s headquarters also understood this, otherwise, they wouldn’t have taken the risk of sending two consecutive data packets.
The second data packet only ntioned this particular matter.
“General, our mission is destined to be a one-way journey. We can’t possibly take Nora Camp’s ancestors to their deaths, can we? Shouldn’t we send a fast ship to deliver the baby back now?” Erson suggested.
Quentin shook his head, “Impossible. The distance is too far, and we have a number of pursuers behind us. Sending a single ship will never make it back to the Empire safely.”
“Then… do we all have to return?”
Quentin continued to shake his head, “We’ve already covered over half the journey. There’s no way we can turn back now.”
Quentin scrolled down the second data packet, and after a while, he slowly stood up.
“The Empire’s headquarters has made a decision.”
“What is it?”
“We will continue to move forward. anwhile, the main brain Star has already begun to gather a large amount of resources according to your previous concept, just like when the embryos of the sages were compiled. They will rewrite a set of genes that can match the mutant baby. This will be the second artificial human creation in human history. The Empire has nad this plan the Protheus Project.”
Erson: “Protheus?”
“A myth from the United Kingdom.”
Erson: “Oh, I see. However, when compiling the embryos of the sages, at least there were existing primitive gene information available, which only required ticulous duplication. But this one, sigh…”
“We can’t give up. We will protect Nora Camp and, at the right ti, let her beco the Fleet Commander. We have to believe in one thing.”
Erson: “What’s that?”
“Nora Camp, who has been a perfect general in multiple tilines, will beco the best commander of the Naless Fleet. Under her leadership, the fleet will not only complete the mission but also return safely!”
“I hope so. I’ll get everything ready then. Oh, there’s one more thing.”
“Tell , Erson.”
“The Protheus Project will definitely continue until the end of the 30th century, and the workload of artificially compiling the embryos and constantly recording the data is enormous. It will occupy a large amount of computing power and also require the assistance of many experts in the field of genetics. I need more talents in biology, so I hope you can authorize increasing the speed of cultivating the Third Generation of Humans. Otherwise, I’m worried that I won’t be able to complete the task. I know this will bring certain risks and cause trouble for you, but that’s not my concern. My job is to ensure the success of the project.”
If it had been before, Quentin would have flatly refused.
But the situation had changed now.
With a bitter smile, Quentin nodded, “Alright, let it be. I’ll provide you with more biologists, geneticists, and Actual Energy conversion apparatus operators.”
History’s undercurrent was becoming increasingly turbulent and irreversible.
Society’s essence is an organic, flowing, and changing whole.
Every major decision at the top-level structure will have a far-reaching impact on the era.
This is particularly evident when the decisions involve changes in population ratios.
