Translator: 549690339
Something strange happened, and the atmosphere became inexplicably romantic.
When Harrison Clark “died,” Nora Camp felt an inexplicable pain in her heart, as if something had been torn away.
This pain was different from the quiet sadness she felt when other comrades died on the battlefield; it was heart-wrenching and unbearable.
Now, sitting face-to-face with Harrison Clark and realizing he was lost and then found again, her heart started racing uncontrollably.
Since joining the army at the age of eight, Nora Camp had been fighting and risking her life for twenty-four years, never considering personal matters.
Yet now, she seemed to understand this sudden feeling of falling in love.
It felt like destiny, an unstoppable force.
The emotions came on too strong, relentlessly pounding her rationality. She wanted to say something, but the timing didn’t seem right.
The feeling was unbearable and indescribable.
If it were the Nora Camp from the “past,” she would have already confessed her feelings.
But this time, the situation had changed. Humanity had a new formidable foe, radium, and the war had lasted for a century. The overall atmosphere was even more somber and stern than waiting for the invaders in the past. Nora Camp’s character hadn’t changed, but her behavior pattern had – she was no longer as straightforward.
Although she easily fell for Harrison Clark and her feelings blossomed and grew, her first reaction was not action but restraint.
Harrison Clark knew her very well and understood what was going on just by looking at her face.
Oh, the General is about to do THAT again!
It’s happening faster each time!
Remembering the General’s past escapades, Harrison Clark’s heartbeat sped up, but not in anticipation – he was nervous.
I’m used to having you around, but I haven’t made a move this time. How did you fall for me so quickly?
Some of our “activities” could start earlier, which is nice, but…
Harrison Clark glanced down and saw that his body below the neck was still missing.
Although his limbs were slowly taking shape, they were entirely hidden by his neck.
Suddenly, a fragrant scent wafted over, and Nora Camp’s lips approached.
No one used perfume in this era – her alluring scent was natural or possibly caused by eating too many sweets.
Harrison Clark wanted to dodge but had nowhere to hide, so her lips met his squarely.
“Harrison Clark, Needham Brown just said that you like me, and you didn’t deny it. I like you too.” Nora Camp whispered, her face rubbing gently against his, “You’re so outstanding. I can’t even imagine what our child would be like if your 35% awakened genes were combined with mine.”
Harrison Clark couldn’t hold back any longer.
“Captain! Please show some restraint! I haven’t even grown my body back yet! Can you wait a month for me?”
He couldn’t bring himself to say the rest of his thoughts.
I’m still a child! Don’t interfere with my development!
It took a while, but Nora Camp eventually withdrew with a flushed face. “I’ve calculated the time. You’re the same age as me now. In thirty days, you’ll be fully recovered, so in about twenty days, your body will be equivalent to a sixteen-year-old’s, and then we can…”
She raised her hands, her thumbs colliding, resembling Mars crashing into the Earth.
Harrison Clark rolled his eyes.
Hey, 110, there’s a warlock here, come subdue her!
“Eighteen! It’s eighteen before we come of age!”
“I’ll wait for you for three more days.”
“Fine… Okay.”Unconsciously, the battleship returned to cosmic space, drawing a winding arc and heading straight for Mars.
Although the order of the planets’ revolution orbits in the Solar System is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, etc., each planet has its own course, and most of the time they are far apart, not in a straight line.
It takes about ten years before a six-planet string phenomenon occurs, and if you include Pluto, a nine-planet string is even rarer, occurring once every six thousand years.
This time, on the way back to Mars from Venus, there was no need to fly over Earth’s orbit.
In the command cabin of the medium-sized transport ship, Harrison Clark’s culture tank was placed all alone. Nora Camp was responsible for navigating in the command cabin, preventing potential interceptions from intelligent warships.
Harrison’s line of sight penetrated the command cabin’s ultra-tough glass partition, and he could see the unique pale yellow reflection of the Dyson membrane shrouded between Saturn’s orbit and Uranus’s orbit in the far distance.
It was incredibly magnificent and spectacular.
This time the Dyson membrane seemed to be a little darker in color than in the past.
The technology level of this timeline has obviously made significant progress, but the Dyson membrane remains the main source of energy.
Harrison turned his gaze to the projection screen in front of him and began to browse the period information.
The current Dyson membrane was completed in 2687, 68 years ahead of the previous 2755.
It was built by a coalition of countries at that time.
The concept of the Dyson membrane was still proposed by mad scientist Sergey Ponomarenko, who absorbed biologist Willian’s knowledge.
And this time he did the work more meticulously, with a more refined design concept, saving future generations a lot of time.
In the end, the human-made Dyson membrane technology is indeed more advanced than in the past, still possessing biological characteristics, but after growing into shape, it did not stop growing instantly, but continued to grow thicker and thicker before stopping.
In terms of functionality, it means that it has a higher energy conversion efficiency, with an average of more energy per second being converted for human use.
Even after hundreds of years have passed, the total energy utilization of radium and humans combined has barely reached 100%.
For the first several hundred years, the huge electricity and biological batteries produced by the Dyson membrane were mostly wasted.
This guy Sergey was truly a tiger; since he first appeared in historical records, he has become an unyielding nail, each time becoming even more powerful.
Time creates heroes, heroes influence history.
A strong enough person, as long as they don’t die young or experience any overwhelming force, can emit their due brilliance, illuminating the way forward and guiding the direction.
Harrison could not help but feel that the ultimate means of acquiring energy, before humans burst out of the solar system or fully mastered antimatter technology, should be the Dyson membrane. It couldn’t be stronger.
There was something that astonished him.
The Dyson membrane still exists today and has not been destroyed, nor has it been completely controlled by radium, which holds absolute military superiority.
Humans, of course, will not destroy the Dyson membrane. After losing Earth’s fertile soil, no matter how humans transform other planets with their current technology level, they cannot reproduce an environment identical to Earth.
Humans must rely on the energy of the Dyson membrane to mass-produce food using Atomic Instruments.
Radium also needs the energy provided by the Dyson membrane.
The current distribution of Dyson membrane energy supply is as follows.
Sixty percent of the electricity is transported to Earth, and forty percent is distributed to various major bases. The Dyson membrane’s biological battery at the South Pole is under the control of the fleet taken over by radium, and humans occasionally attempt to steal some batteries.
In summary, humans can actually only get about 20% of the energy, while radium controls 80% of the energy.
The two sides have formed a strange tacit understanding, and no matter how fierce the battle, they haven’t targeted the Dyson membrane.
Radium clearly has the upper hand but has not cut off the last hope of human survival.
It neither destroys nor attempts to gain complete control of the Dyson membrane.
It’s strange.
It’s unclear whether radium is incapable or unwilling to do so..
