In the culture vessel, there was an infant with silver-white short hair, namely the OriginalBody that was once the Emperor's son, acclaimed as the "Perfect Phoenix" Fogrim.
In the culture vessel, there was an infant with silver-white short hair, namely the OriginalBody that was once the Emperor's son, acclaimed as the "Perfect Phoenix" Fogrim.
At this moment, as one of the earliest to join…
It should be said that he was 'forced' to join Sui Bian's faction, yet he devoted all his heart and soul to the OriginalBody and Astate plan, having made outstanding contributions, William BoKen gazed at Fogrim, unable to restrain himself, revealing a manic demeanor, and muttered to himself:
It should be said that he was 'forced' to join Sui Bian's faction, yet he devoted all his heart and soul to the OriginalBody and Astate plan, having made outstanding contributions, William BoKen gazed at Fogrim, unable to restrain himself, revealing a manic demeanor, and muttered to himself:
"Not bad for the chairman! He actually managed to rely on the G-virus as a basis to cultivate… no! To create such a perfect organism… a perfect race……"
BoKen, who lies between genius and madman, mentioned using the G-virus as a basis to cultivate the next generation of OriginalBody, and that is indeed correct, after all, with the G-gland, Umbrella got its ten OriginalBody and ten Astate legions, plus millions of reserves.
"But BoKen director…" However, just as BoKen's mad words fell, Alekxia raised her hand and smoothed her golden ponytail, correcting: "Using the G-virus as a basis is correct, but don't forget, the next-generation OriginalBody is the crystallization of the company's collective effort, and moreover, it was the doctor who provided crucial data in this project."
"I'm right, doctor." After saying that, Alekxia turned her gaze to the rarely silent plague doctor.
Alekxia is likewise one of the top researchers who earliest joined Sui Bian's faction, but the biggest difference between her and Rebecca and William BoKen lies in…
She is the "Flame Queen," a perfect match for the T-Veronica virus anomaly, and at that time she had undergone memory erasure and modification, making her unstable, so initially Sui Bian ordered Umbrella to implant a micro bomb in Alekxia's skull.
Once she recalls her past and directs her hostility toward company personnel, Hong Hou will detonate the bomb without hesitation.
In the early 21st century, Umbrella lacked somewhat in individual combat strength, having no OriginalBody nor Astate, and even Sui Bian had not yet acquired the "Father-Son Link" and "Spiritual Energy Plunder" abilities, so they had to impose the highest precautions on Alekxia.
However, as Sui Bian became the strongest Spiritual User among humans, even capable of releasing Spiritual Energy to influence the thought patterns of surrounding humans and creatures, to eliminate hidden dangers, Sui Bian told Alekxia the truth 160 years ago, including the fact that she had a bomb implanted in her skull.
In this regard, deeply affected by Sui Bian's Spiritual Energy, plus Sui Bian's actions considering humanity as a whole, made Alekxia, the Flame Queen, even though she knew everything, still willingly work for Sui Bian, pouring all her talent in biology and chemistry into the cause.
Most importantly, Alekxia retained the surname "Reich" that Sui Bian gave her, completely bidding farewell to her past "Ashford" family.
But Alekxia essentially, like the Red Queen and White Queen, indeed contributes to humanity, provided Sui Bian remains unharmed, and her loyalty is solely to Sui Bian.
And after regaining her past memories, Alekxia also regained her arrogance; moreover, she has the capital for it, so she sometimes greatly dislikes William BoKen, who claims to be a genius, but she gets along very well with the humble Rebecca.
Just now, hearing William BoKen seem to attribute the merit of the next-generation OriginalBody solely to the G-virus, this provoked Alekxia's "correction."
"Hmm..." The plague doctor, who noticed the topic had turned to himself, kept his gaze on the culture vessel the whole time, pondered a moment, then replied in his rather magnetic voice:
"All this work and research is for fighting and curing the plague; why make such a clear distinction? But these days have indeed been draining my energy; as a trade and reward, I hope Mr. Sui can approve, 'introduce' a new batch of D-kids, how about that?"
After saying that, the plague doctor finally shifted his gaze to Sui Bian standing in the center of the crowd.
"Of course no problem."
For this small request, Sui Bian is still very generous; as for the D-kids the plague doctor mentioned, they are demonic creatures and chaotic Astate captured by the various legions.
Moreover, the plague doctor's research on demonic creatures has also yielded considerable results, with many good and very "novel" ideas, prompting Sui Bian to wait for the OriginalBody and Astate to complete large-scale "renewal," then prepare to arrange for the plague doctor's latest research findings to be applied across the legions, diversifying them.
Needless to say, this top-tier, oldest-in-age researcher, the plague doctor, is truly a fortune and blessing for Umbrella, the main universe, and humanity as a whole.
The old saying goes, "A family with an elder is like possessing a treasure"; describing the plague doctor this way seems quite fitting.
"All right." Sui Bian waved his hand again, preparing to walk out of the cultivation chamber, and instructed everyone: "These children still need some time to be weaned off the nutrient solution; before that, please take care of them."
"Don't worry, this is what we should do." The most lively Alekxia immediately responded, then made a pose with arms crossed over her chest, chuckling: "Besides, I haven't taught young OriginalBody in ages, ahaha~ I'm practically itching to do it."
"." As a friend, Rebecca gazed with her eyes at the chairman, whose stature had grown much more imposing than before, and involuntarily nodded.
"Ah... perfect G..."
As for William BoKen, he remains in a state of self-indulgence; there's no way around it, the next-generation OriginalBody is flawless in every aspect, which has caused this "old fogey"-level researcher to experience a second spring of creative and research passion.
"Please rest assured, Chairman." Then the daughter of A-1999, Zigler Kechi, reported: "Once the OriginalBody are free from the nutrient solution, we will implant them with dedicated nanorobots to ensure each OriginalBody undergoes a complete metamorphosis."
"Just follow the plan." Sui Bian replied in a low voice, then turned and passed through the security gate and decontamination passage, completely disappearing from everyone's sight.
Leaving the cultivation chamber, Constantine and the White Queen waiting outside immediately followed him as they headed out of the building.
Next, the first matter to be addressed is preparing for a second surgery on the "master" of the Indestructible, namely the OriginalBody Rog, who also wields the Glory Iron Fist.
Besides that, Sui Bian not only needs to consider making his offspring stronger, taller, and sturdier, but also the overall physical quality of humanity.
Although he has selfish desires to give everything best to his children, the Three-Zero Emperor has entrusted all of humanity to him, causing Sui Bian to gradually shift his thoughts and mindset from disliking, or rather feeling unworthy of the so-called "Lord of Humanity," to truly becoming the Lord of Humanity.
Then, humanity as a whole must also undergo "evolution."
Currently, the human zeitgeist is rather martial, and the Zero One and Zero Two universes, under the influence of the main universe, have also begun to be "rich in martial virtue."
In dealing with alien forces, we will only negotiate once: either ally with "us," gradually becoming a vassal of "us," then accept human education and lifestyle influences, and fully integrate into human society.
If a single talk fails and they hold an hostile attitude toward humanity, then "we" will exterminate "you," employing various levels of extermination measures as the situation demands.
If they retain hostility, and their behavior, language, attitude, etc., make humanity feel disgust……
The grand installation will not be stingy at all.
Moreover, the manifestation of humanity's "rich in martial virtue" is not only mental and ideological but also includes the "physical" aspect.
Thanks to the proliferation of nanotechnology, lifespan is no longer a shackle for humanity; any disease caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, or parasites at the microbial level cannot threaten humanity.
In terms of physique, it has reached an unimaginable level.
Saying that physical quality has reached its limit, one cannot directly perceive how humanity's physique has improved; take an analogy: a present-day 187-centimeter, 80-kilogram twenty-year-old male who has never received martial arts, combat, or military training, placed alongside a male of the same conditions and age but from the early 21st century, the outcome is certain: the modern man will win.
And it will be a victory by overwhelming superiority.
Even an ordinary resident of the present era can completely dominate in every aspect, let alone UNSC and auxiliary military personnel.
In other words, nanotechnology makes present-day humanity, when placed in the past, each individual a long-dreamed-of "super soldier" for governments and militaries, nearly the peak state of humanity.
However, Sui Bian is far from satisfied with this.
All Astate?
This is highly unrealistic; don't look at Umbrella possessing nearly five million Astate, but first, five million is negligible compared to humanity's population measured in "trillions."
Even if the G-gland is mature and stable, the requirements for compatibility have never been lowered in the slightest; moreover, due to hormonal issues and the fact that the original G-gland came from Sui Bian (male), only males can become Astate.
Looking at this alone, although Umbrella's Astate represent one direction of human evolution, their inclusivity and compatibility with humanity as a whole are too poor; only an extreme minority of elites can become the "Chosen Ones."
Therefore, Sui Bian needs to open up an evolutionary path distinct from that of the Astate.
Adopting increasingly mature and perfected nanotechnology is indeed a viable path, but he still needs a new plan, especially the legion auxiliary forces that accompany the Astate in conducting combat operations.
He who has obtained all the knowledge of the Zero Three Emperor already has a corresponding plan in mind; combined with exchanging from the system that can still be used normally but whose cold-toned reminder voice has completely disappeared, he obtains biotechnology from the Halo (Superweapon) series, enabling Sui Bian to smoothly embark on another new path.

…
"All personnel, please note: this ship has passed through the star gate and entered the gravitational field of Gustwa; we expect to reach the surface in fifteen minutes, dock at the urban starport, and complete berthing. Please check your personal belongings and prepare to disembark."
In cabin 06, the reminder from the bridge resounded, and the people seated in the spacious seats—most of whom wore the black training uniforms of Umbrella's armed division—talked to each other, eyes full of yearning, and were quite young, looking like newly graduated lieutenant‑rank officers fresh from intensive training.
Just by looking at their attire, rank insignia, and chest badges, one can infer they are junior officers heading to the Gustwa colony to serve as auxiliary troops for the legion, ready to apply what they have learned.
These are all part of the routine "internship" process; among this group of young officers averaging about twenty‑five years old, a legend like Andre might yet appear.
However, the heights and physiques of these officers are far from "ordinary."
Even while seated, it's easy to guess they stand around two meters tall, with well‑proportioned, sturdy builds—not the look of a "clumsy giant."
Meanwhile, the few formally dressed "civilian staff" in suits, though of standard stature, clearly have also undergone professional military training, yet remain at normal human height.
Obviously, these young officers have undergone some kind of modification surgery, turning them into these "little giants"…
They are called "little giants" because, compared with Astate, they are still merely "child's play."
In fact, all these young officers hail from Minos Island, supervised, instructed, and taught personally by Hank, former Alpha team leader of the former U. S. S. (Umbrella Rapid Response Force), now an admiral who also bears the nickname "Reaper."
Minos Island, located on Earth, has long been reclaimed from the sea, its scale now more than a hundred times its original size, and from the era when humanity could not explore the Solar System to the age of interstellar multiverse travel, it has never been decommissioned, continuously supplying Umbrella and the UNSC with outstanding young officers.
Intelligence officers of the Intelligence Department and agents of the Oversight Department likewise receive professional training on Minos Island.
Moreover, even Ghost agents—high‑clearance, covert "assassination" and "stealth" units—are all Minos Island alumni.
Being personally overseen by an Umbrella senior‑rank general does not make these young officers' status special; they have simply undergone a standardized modification surgery, essentially a mass‑produced, "cheap" version of a super‑soldier.
They do not, like Astate, possess the thunderous moniker "Astate"; they only have the project name "Orion Project."
Nevertheless, they do not need a moniker, because future legion auxiliary troops, as well as UNSC Army, UNSC Marine Corps, UNSC Special Command, and all military unit members, will undergo the Orion Project's surgical modifications.
And they are also the ones Sui Bian, twelve years ago on the Zero Three Universe Never‑Defeated, prepared to launch another evolutionary path for humanity.
Twelve years ago, the Halo (Superweapon) biotechnology that Sui Bian exchanged from the system was precisely the Sparta II, III, and IV super‑soldier programs that run through the entire Halo series.
However, Sui Bian did not copy it verbatim; he applied his own knowledge, combined with Umbrella's two‑hundred‑plus years of data, samples, and figures, to improve it, greatly simplifying the procedure and the physical and genetic requirements.
