“You know what this means.”
Quentin Cooper raised his right hand, rubbing his temple, which was slightly aching.
It was really true that misfortunes never came alone. An unresolved problem was followed by another thorny issue.
Emerson pulled up a chair and sat down, “Of course I know. We first need to determine if this is inevitable or accidental. If inevitable, it’s terrible. This would seriously damage the Empire’s expeditions, meaning human civilization could not leave the Milky Way Galaxy. If accidental, we need to figure out the probability of it happening.”
Quentin lowered his hand, “We are not currently the farthest fleet away from the Solar System. There are some fleets moving in a direction completely perpendicular to the Ecliptic Plane, but they have not encountered this situation.”

“That’s because they don’t have the innate conditions we do, and they don’t have as many top-tier warriors providing high-level gene pools. Their demand for top-tier individual combat strength is far less than ours.”
Quentin nodded, “Yes.”
Emerson: “Regardless, our experiment was successful. It took humans hundreds of years and great effort to train Instructor Bell, and her existence elevated human combat strength as a whole. Just a few decades have passed, and we’ve obtained another cutting-edge combat resource. Isn’t this exactly what you military people have been dreaming of? General, you should be even happier. Once we share the experimental data with the Empire, the Empire might even have a chance to mass-produce these super soldiers.”
Quentin shook his head, “The risks are too great. What has supported humanity all this way is not merely technological progress or the increase in gene awakening, but absolute unity. The baby has only become reproductively isolated from humans, but that doesn’t mean it has no reproductive capacity. Mass-producing this baby’s kind would create a new race with higher potential than us but completely different, causing humanity to split and ultimately leading to destruction. We haven’t dealt with the enemy in front of us yet; if we cultivate a new enemy, it may cause us heavy damage, similar to the radium in the history of nothingness. We can not bear this potential risk.”
Emerson: “But there’s also the possibility of using the new race to our advantage, right?”
Quentin did not deny it, “Yes, so this matter is difficult to handle. Dr. Emerson, you go back to work first, find out exactly what’s going on with this baby, and decide how to deal with it.”
“Alright.”
Emerson led the team to conduct numerous analyses on the newborn baby.
First, they confirmed the accidentality of the event and that the probability is extremely low.
Multiple extreme conditions were satisfied simultaneously, ultimately leading to the irreversible mutation.
Extreme conditions included the new basic quantum laws in the outer Milky Way space environment, the gene association of both parents, an accidental event during embryo cultivation (leaking radiation on the embryo), and countless other factors.
At first, the embryo had a fatal mutation and was about to die. The cultivation group staff, with the mentality of trying everything to save it, placed the dying embryo in a simulated nebula of the Methuselah Star, and also applied the top-secret new technology – Virtual Energy Transformation. Miraculously, the embryo survived.
“Although this accident has some replicability in theory, it is difficult to achieve. The main difficulty is not in replicating external conditions but in the embryo itself. The same two people’s chromosomes form a gene combination that cannot be identical, just like identical twins will have differences.”
“What about cloning?”
“It’s also not feasible.”
“At the first mitosis of every fertilized egg embryo, the underlying information of Real Energy has already begun its first directional mutation. Even if cloned, the embryo wouldn’t grow into an identical baby. This is the same rationale as the difference between identical twins.”
“Oh, I see.”
Quentin and Emerson looked at each other, sighing with relief and a slight sense of frustration.
“I’ll continue to analyze the embryo’s characteristics. So far, we’ve only analyzed the embryo’s combat potential, but we need to do more in-depth research.”
“Go ahead, and take care.”
About sixteen hours later, Quentin received a report.
In the report, Emerson pointed out that he had extracted the underlying information of the embryo and simulated pairing with a large number of samples, including the data of everyone in the entire fleet and the even larger gene reserve database stored on the ships.
In the previous first-round pairing results, ten thousand failed pairings led Emerson to initially conclude reproductive isolation.
Now, with the sample size expanded to tens of billions, pairing still fails, so the conclusion of reproductive isolation basically holds up, but it leaves a glimmer of hope.
No one can determine whether, if the sample size is continuously enlarged to hundreds of billions, trillions, or even infinitely large, the seemingly impregnable isolation barrier could be broken without any attack.
Unfortunately, there are no experimental conditions now.
Emerson: “Actually, I have thought about a plan.”
“What is it?”
“The resurrection embryo of the sages, do you know about that?”
“Of course.”
“We can simulate the approach of the Earth Life Science Academy in synthesizing sage embryos, programming at the level of Real Energy precision bit by bit to write another set of chromosomes corresponding to the mutant baby. We might be able to try to continue the baby’s genes and use time to eliminate the imagination of reproductive isolation.”
“How many years would it take to see the results at the earliest?”
