I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World - Chapter 201
Chapter 201: Chapter 16o: Extinction of Master Mode
Translator: 549690339
In the following two hundred years, human civilization’s technology developed rapidly.
Although the solar system was sealed off, leaving humans unable to venture outside, leading to a slightly distorted technological development, human beings reached the limit in exploiting internal resources.
Last time Harrison Clark came, he didn’t react until the end that the solar system was compressed, and the speed of light was lower than 300,000 kilometers per second.
But this time the situation was completely different. After building the Dyson membrane, humans realized the change of light speed and space.
However, this didn’t cause any trouble to human technological development as Harrison Clark had once worried.
Earthlings’ adaptability was much stronger than Harrison Clark imagined.
Carrie Thomas once advised Harrison, “Don’t treat civilization like a baby; it doesn’t need to be carefully protected.
The current situation perfectly verifies Carrie’s words.
Scientists naturally adapted to the new cosmic rules under the changed speed of light and encountered no problems.
Now everyone knows that mankind is indeed struggling in the chessboard drawn by the invaders.
Since the cosmic rules have been changed, humans have to develop technology under the twisted rules set by the other side. Theoretically, no matter how hard humans try, they cannot escape the shackles drawn by the invaders.
If it weren’t for the great disaster of S-bacteria tempering human resilience, perhaps everyone would have collapsed when they realized this.
But they continued to move forward in the face of adversity.
S-bacteria almost destroyed the entire civilization, but it left valuable spiritual wealth for humanity by an odd twist of fate.
Even if it’s a fight of trapped beasts, humans still want to break off two of the invaders’ teeth.
Harrison Clark could feel the world’s spirit and was intoxicated by it.
Having finished reading history, it’s already four in the morning, and Harrison stretches and lies down on bed.
But he doesn’t go to sleep immediately; instead, he raises his pillow and analyzes all the information he has collected so far.
The value of reading history is not for entertainment but to explore useful information and objective laws from past events, providing a theoretical basis for future planning.
Sergey’s judgment is entirely correct.
The birth of S-bacteria is a remedial action taken by the invaders after they found out that the mental infiltration of Song of the Wilderness had failed.
Perhaps the invaders didn’t expect that such a malicious plan would be foiled by the united resistance of humanity.
Humans paid a heavy price, but they didn’t fall as a result. Instead, they developed even better.
This shows that although the invaders are incredibly powerful, they can still make an unsatisfactory move.
Harrison Clark’s confidence was greatly boosted.
In his mind, the invaders were no longer so hopelessly powerful.
The S-bacteria strategy didn’t work for the enemy, revealing another weakness of the invaders.
The 500-year gap between the arrival of the Solar System Barrier and the arrival of the invader warships is fixed.
Before their warships arrive, they can only rely on remote control of the Solar System Barrier to play some “tricks.”
Their actions are not unrestricted; they must have limitations.
Otherwise, the S-bacteria should have been stronger.
Or they wouldn’t have to go to such great lengths to use Song of the Wilderness and S-bacteria.
There is a hidden paradox in this.
The Solar System Barrier is so terrifying that it appears without warning, even compressing space and carrying an incomprehensible level of technology.
Yet the invaders themselves are extremely afraid of direct contact with humans.
And they watched as the S-bacteria strategy failed, and humans became stronger because of it, but they did not speed up their arrival.
Going back in time.
Theoretically, the most likely situation is this: the invaders’ detectors captured the data of a Voyager probe and sent it back to their base.
The base responded by deploying a stellar system-level blockade, sending warships this way.
The blockade realized a near-instantaneous, ultra-long-range travel, arriving in 2500 and began to capture and seal off the Solar System.
However, the warships were left behind, and they couldn’t eliminate the 500-year travel time difference.
This is too unreasonable.
A civilization with technology on the level of the Solar System Barrier shouldn’t be so easily restricted by spatial distance.
Their main combat units should have opened a faster-than-light wormhole outside the solar system long ago, almost simultaneously arriving with the barrier.
Now, the only explanation is that there is a huge technological gap between the Solar System Barrier and the invaders’ warships.
Harrison Clark drew a conclusion.
The Solar System Barrier is incompatible with the invaders’ own technological system!
This doesn’t belong to their civilization.
The entity that created and manufactured the barrier belongs to an even more powerful and advanced civilization.
The situation is somewhat similar to when Europeans landed in America and intervened in the wars between two native tribes, providing one tribe with guns and cannons in exchange for food and building materials.
Harrison Clark is thrilled once again.
This is another massive weakness of the invaders!
Yes, put it on the list.
His thoughts return to another matter.
Previously, the invaders used mental infiltration to hide ultrafine particles in the commanders’ personal mementos.
At the critical moment of the Great War, they activated these ultrafine particles, transforming the mementos into antimatter bombs and instantly destroying the huge human fleet.
Later, Harrison convinced Martha Owen to name it.
Martha and Harrison named them Particle-interference Particles.
This time, the commanders’ personal mementos are gone.
On the one hand, the infiltration has failed, and on the other hand, Harrison believes that there should be no Particle-interference Bombs this time.
Because interfering with human destiny through remote control of the Solar System Barrier consumes some kind of energy.
The energy is limited.
So, either they could play the “Song of the Wilderness” and hide a
Particle-interference Bomb near the commander.
Or, they could cultivate and catalyze the S Bacteria.
But they could only do one of these things!
The third crucial piece of information was teased out by Harrison Clark through his analysis.
Harrison’s deduction deepened.
Where did the previous Particle-interference Bombs come from?
How did the Solar System Barrier silently interfere with and affect the basic particle laws on Earth, creating the Particle-related phenomenon?
Why weren’t the Particles spread evenly across the globe but concentrated near the battleship captains and numerous military commanders?
What was the connection between the construction process of Particles and the hobbies of these commanders?
What changed in the human brain’s thinking pattern when a person liked something or saw something?
If someone’s mind was intruded and disrupted initially, would a special kind of quantum fluctuation emerge alongside the brain’s thought process, focusing on their object of interest and ultimately catalyzing the formation of Particle – interference?
If Harrison understood the whole process, could he reverse-engineer its principle and create the Particle-related phenomenon, then find a way to activate it?
Couldn’t we learn from their own methods and use it against them, just like how the Murong family did in ancient China?
Amidst the haze of speculation, Harrison finally fell asleep due to exhaustion.
This sleep was particularly sweet.
Because even when he entered deep sleep and dreamt, he was still deducing the seemingly impossible answers within his dreams.
After coming to this time, Harrison lost his previous physical advantages and was unwilling to let his fate fall into mediocrity, so he pushed himself to think harder.
It made his previously rusty brain due to reliance on physical strength more active.
So, human potential was always unlimited.
Without pushing oneself, one wouldn’t know how useful their brain could be.
“Ahem.”
The next morning, Harrison woke up in the detention room.
This so-called detention room was more like a standard suite with all the necessities than a place to be locked away.
Their treatment was even better than when Harrison quarantined himself in his house to avoid catching infectious diseases a thousand years ago. At least he didn’t need to cook or wash dishes now.
After having a full breakfast, Harrison entered the Holographic Space a few minutes in advance to listen to Mr. Owen’s lectures.
Before the class started, he opened the information system and started browsing contemporary news casually.
As he was browsing, he sighed.
What a wonderful time it was.
Full of vitality.
Despite facing the end of days, people were more determined than ever.
Technology progressed rapidly, with new tech being developed every day.
The decision-makers also became completely human-centered.
Every citizen had the right to vote on any critical decision.
As long as you wanted to be involved, you could open your personal neural terminal and vote anytime, anywhere, in any area that you were interested in or knowledgeable about.
Even Harrison, who had been locked away in detention, could vote.
In voting, there was no differentiation between the poor and the rich.
Decisions for the whole society were no longer made by the thoughts of just a few people, but by the collective intelligence formed by everyone’s thoughts.
Moreover, the high education level of the population due to the popularization of the education system made the collective intelligence wise and cold, rather than being ignorant.
The World Government had transformed into a purely service-oriented government.
This fascinating structure was born out of many coincidences.
Harrison was unsure if humans would still face the S Bacteria next time or if they could form a structure like this again.
But even if he only experienced it once, he thought it was worth living.
“Ahem.”
For some reason, his throat felt itchy, so he coughed again.
Just then, Martha Owen’s figure appeared.
She frowned slightly, “Did you catch a cold?”
Harrison shook his head, “No.”
“That’s weird. Many people only catch a cold once in their lives. With the constitution that got you through the volunteer test, you shouldn’t catch a cold easily. I didn’t realize you were so weak.”
Harrison awkwardly laughed, “No, I’m not. Don’t talk nonsense. I’m super strong, okay? Back in the day…”
“Back in the day, what? You, a bottom-ranked, held-back rookie soldier, what back in the day?” Martha sneered at him while using her authority to access the records of what he was doing yesterday.
“Tsk, I knew it. You really can endure it, reading those historical materials until four in the morning. You deserve it! How did you even grow up? What did you do during all those years in your childhood? Forget it, forget it. I won’t talk about you anymore.”
Martha seemed irritated by him.
Presumably, she felt he had wasted his good looks and name.
“Let’s cut to the chase. You won’t get to experience my hands-on tough love in your lesson today. I’ve got things to do, so I can only use a simulation of my image to teach you.”
Harrison smiled, “That’s alright, I’ll work hard. You don’t need to go out of your way to tell me.”
“No, it’s necessary.” Martha grinned devilishly, “Because the simulation I set up for you is the strictest ‘Extinct Mistress’ mode. Good luck! Goodbye!”
Harrison: “WTF!”
