I REALLY DIDN'T MEAN TO BE THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD

Chapter 918: Chapter 554: The Spirit of Doubt_1

When humanity first destroyed the Prism Ship, the stepping-stone of the Compound-Eyed Observer had already been stepped on.

Harrison Clark’s attention had shifted by then.

He started to seriously think about higher-order civilizations.

Up to now, he had never truly dealt with higher-order civilizations, only indirectly guessing their characteristics through unconventional means held by the Compound-Eyed Observer.

He didn’t even know what the higher-order civilization looked like, let alone their technological level.

The only two things he could ascertain were:

First, their hostility.

Second, the products they casually bestowed upon the Compound-Eyed Observer, like the Song of the Wilderness, the Dome, the Star Destroyer Cannon, and the unreasonably superior sublight travel at 500 times the speed of light.

But now, with the advent of the Quantum Virus and the Methuselah Star coming into view, Harrison Clark had a vague guess about the identity of the higher-order civilization.

The core idea of the higher-order civilization’s arsenal is the application of laws.

They don’t worship creating explosions like humans do to destroy the physical structure of the universe with brute force, but instead, they prefer to use skillful application of laws.

Even with the seemingly destructive explosion caused by the Star Destroyer Cannon, its essence is to stimulate the inherent self-dissolution properties of matter.

It seems like the Compound-Eyed Observer has absorbed the ideas of higher-order civilizations.

Physical toxin-type weapons have played a significant role in the hands of the Observer across multiple timelines, becoming the nightmare of humanity.

The essence of physical toxins is also the application of laws.

Harrison Clark had read all the research reports on the Quantum Virus.

Although there was no clear evidence, he believed that the Quantum Virus, suspected to have originated from the Methuselah Star, was related to the laws of the universe.

It would take ten years for the Bonnie Fleet to arrive at Methuselah Star. Harrison Clark quietly observed the situation, unable to see any immediate results.

Meanwhile, in the Solar System, with the Advent of the Dome, human strategy changed drastically, and the camouflage plan was launched.

The progress of applied technology was rapidly stagnating, with more and more of humanity’s new achievements confined to laboratories and theoretical academic levels.

Moreover, the many ultra-high-tech products built by humans before the 26th century were also recalled and hidden.

This was to prevent the Compound-Eyed Observer and the higher-order civilizations from seeing through the true technological power of humanity through the Dome’s cursory observation, and thus setting up overly powerful new measures in advance.

Pretending to be weak to trick the enemies was an idea that had once occurred to Harrison Clark, but he did not leave any forcible orders to execute it.

He simply made a suggestion and then returned the choice to the successors.

After a comprehensive assessment, the successors firmly implemented Harrison Clark’s proposal and began executing it in 2500.

The Space Transportation Network could have been upgraded to a stable curvature capacity of twenty times the speed of light but was halted at the sub-light speed level.

Anyway, the distance to transport materials was not so far away; as long as the logistics pipeline continued to be connected and operated, a slightly slower speed would not greatly affect the efficiency of society.

…

“Dr. Willian, we have received your application report. I would like to hear your explanation and clarification. If possible, I hope you retract this insane idea. You are only sixteen, and you have a bright future ahead of you. I hope you can value yourself more. We are well-prepared this time, and we don’t need people like you to take such a huge risk.”

In the dean’s office of the Summit Research Institute, the then-dean Maxwell Owen looked at Willian with a serious expression, speaking very gravely.At this moment, Willian, only sixteen years old, finally showed the assertiveness unique to young people and was no longer precocious for his age.

He declared resolutely, “If no one ever took risks, primitive humans would have never tried to preserve fire, humans would not have cooked food, and there would be no today.”

Maxwell Owen could not help but laugh, “You little brat, trying to out-talk me. If it were anyone else, I might agree, but you…”

“I know I am the ‘historical’ Oliver Walton. I am very important.”

Willian suddenly interrupted Maxwell Owen.

The “Oliver Walton” he referred to was the 26th-century super-scientist in Harrison Clark’s “Compound Eye Crisis” series and Leonard Lewis’s “Lover” series, which was Willian’s “pseudonym.”

As the dean of the Summit Research Institute and one of the rotating members of the World Government Science Executive Committee, Maxwell Owen knew the truth.

As for Willian, some information was deliberately withheld from him, but it was only a matter of covering his ears while stealing bells; it could not deceive him.

“Knowing that, you still dare to take such risks? Aren’t you afraid of destroying yourself? And what makes you think you can create the ZS Bacteria ahead of time? You even told me you have completed the replication of the Superpower Bacteria, and you have already planted it in yourself? You even dare to be vaccinated with the ZS Bacteria? Don’t you fear that it will spread and cause the demise of the Solar System by your own hands? You are too arrogant.”

Willian’s plan was in line with Harrison Clark’s plan in the outside world.

He could no longer obtain a sample of the Quantum Virus, but he did not give up his research.

He planned to vaccinate himself with Superpower Bacteria and the recreated version of the ZS Bacteria, as well as the pseudo-Quantum Virus that he personally reconstructed based on other people’s analysis reports. The person to be vaccinated was himself.

“Dean Owen, I have decided to establish a Subspace Laboratory, seal myself and the Quantum Virus, ZS Bacteria, and other substances in an isolated space, so as not to spread them. We can’t let the enemy know through the Dome that we have found a way to deal with the ZS Bacteria. From the moment I decided to do this, I was doomed to be alone from now on.”

Willian spoke at length.

Maxwell Owen frowned slightly.

The “Subspace” that Willian mentioned was a new concept proposed by Maxwell Owen himself in a paper just a few days ago.

After the arrival of the Solar Dome, Maxwell Owen analyzed a large amount of test data, combined the Grand Unified Theory with Triple Space Theory, and proposed a new space concept that was different from Triple Space and only existed under the Dome.

According to the knowledge left by their sages, people knew that the risk of jumping under the Dome was significant.

But people only knew the consequence and not the cause.

Maxwell Owen believed that this was because the Dome forced a fourth layer of space, in addition to Triple Space, into the same region of the universe.

Maxwell Owen named it the Sub-Three-Dimensional Space.

Its characteristics were very similar to the original three-dimensional space, but it was completely separated from the original three-dimensional space like Curvature Space and had very stable properties.

“But my subspace is just a theory…”

Maxwell Owen thought for a moment and said.

Willian decisively said.

“Ten years from now, in 2510, Dean Owen, you will complete the first-generation Subspace Device, and I will complete the reconstruction of the ZS Bacteria at the same time. The timing is just right. We have put on many disguises, but we should not underestimate the enemy’s intelligence. No one can guarantee whether this Dome will bring new and more terrifying weapons. From the beginning, we must trample the ZS Bacteria underfoot and turn it to our advantage. This is my analysis result…”

After Willian finished speaking, he listed a long series of data tables and introduced them one by one.

“After a thorough comparison, I found that the total amount of energy contained in the Dome we are facing now is 110% of what is recorded in ‘historical records.’ Doesn’t this extra 10% of energy seem unusual? The wise men of the past must have considered this, so they did not force us to carry out the security plan. What they needed was for us to break through all shackles and provide the greatest assistance to the wars outside in the 31st century. Our current approach may seem safe, but it may not be correct. Even if we want to disguise ourselves and hide our clumsiness, we should run unscrupulously in the Subspace. We cannot put shackles on our own hands.”

Maxwell Owen was stunned.

He suddenly realized that this Willian was really like the “historical records,” full of doubt and skepticism about everything.
