Chapter 193 - 193: 155: The First Five Hundred Years 2
You can ruin yourself, but don’t ruin others. That’s too much.
In short, with the support of “Morning Wind,” “Self-Combustion,” “The Fire,” and many subsequent songs, Carrie Thomas’s artistic status was firmly established in the top ten for a millennium without any doubt.
Another person whose fate was changed by Harrison Clark was Rainer. Rainer.
In his early years, in addition to participating in the creation of “Morning Wind” and deducing the impact of sound waves on the human body from the aspects of biology and mathematics, Rainer never slackened his work in applied physics.
He accepted the sponsorship of Summit Ventures and made crazy progress in human technology innovations in material science and energy science.
He demonstrated several conjectures and completed several achievements in just a few decades.
The ultra-high-energy-efficiency and ultra-high-durability solar cell membrane were his research achievements.
Moreover, since 2047, when he was 56, Rainer made a grand turnaround with Harrison Clark.
Rainer, one of the ten greatest scientists of the 21st century and one of the too greatest scientists in human history, suddenly abandoned all research progress in applied physics and mathematics and joined Harrison Clark’s mad plan as the chief engineer for the development of a super-large spacecraft.
Rainer’s efforts were indispensable for Harrison Clark’s successful launch of the two big fireworks.
Of course, this also caused Harrison to be scolded even more.
Many people firmly believed that if it weren’t for Harrison dragging Rainer down, causing him to focus solely on aerospace research after the age of 56 until his death at the age of 70 in 2061, he would have had a chance to be among the top ten scientists in a millennium.
Another reason Harrison was criticized by the world.
He personally promoted and saved Carrie Thomas and Rainer but also held them back.
He personally ignited the sacred fire of the Renaissance, but he stopped beating the drums and raising the flags when the world needed his inspiration the most.
He was great, but not perfect.
His reputation was mixed.
If it were not for the numerous inexplicable actions of Harrison Clark being rediscovered in the 26th century, his historical status would have been almost unattainable.
Among the changes that occurred within Oxfordshire, besides Harrison Clark and Carrie Thomas, Ward Owen’s destiny changed again.
Ward Owen eventually returned to Whale Group, a decade later than the last time.
Two top-tier albums, especially the new folk style of the second one, firmly established his reputation.
It was not until he was over sixty that Ward Owen reluctantly returned to the helm of Whale Group.
But after all, he was getting older and lazier, handing over more decision-making power to the vigorous and professional management team he hired.
Thanks to his delegation of power, he didn’t make so many foolish decisions.
This time, Whale Group walked further and better, developing and successfully promoting more new technologies.
The things left behind by Whale Group were more, and thanks to Harrison Clark’s assistance in the aerospace industry, the positive impact lasted for hundreds of years.
Although human beings could not leave the Solar System before the 26th century, they created a large spaceship decades ahead of schedule and established Mars Base 50 years earlier in 2387.
Of course, the beginning of all new things is always simple at first.
Due to external constraints, the initial resource utilization efficiency on Mars was extremely low, difficult to achieve self-sufficiency, and still required Earth to continue burning resources to sustain the economy.
From an outpost that could only accommodate tens of people to a large ecological base with self-improving production capabilities, there was a long distance to cover.
It took humans nearly another century to develop a large Mars Base composed of several blocks in the 60s of the 25th century.
Each block on Mars Base could accommodate nearly a million people, allowing them to live, rest, and reproduce.
From then on, a new “ethnic group” called Martians was born.
Human development seemed to be on the fast track, believing that it would not take long to leave the Solar System and set foot in the Milky Way.
Time continued to move forward, and in 2473, Frankie’s modified Ganymede began to release its frequency band, broadcasting “Morning Wind” throughout the Solar System.
In 2500, the signal of “Morning Wind” disappeared out of thin air.
That same year, a new unmanned heavy cargo rocket called Noah One disappeared on the edge of the Solar System.
According to the original plan, Noah One would reach Proxima Centauri b, build a detection base and return enough data; humans would then send the first interstellar colonization advance team in history.
People found that some invisible changes were happening quietly and instantaneously.
Humans were blockaded.
At the same time, the high-level officials of various countries received warning messages from the universe.
They were panic-stricken and desperate.
But with strong willpower, they remained calm in public.
They sealed the news for the first time and began planning countermeasures.
The burgeoning World Government ideology was instantly recognized, and countries began to rapidly comprehend the peaceful evolution.
If everything goes as expected, the New World Government, which pursues absolute efficiency and optimal resource utilization as its core concepts, will be formed within 30 years and implement a series of seemingly more efficient administrative strategies to quickly enhance the military power of human civilization.
Under this objective law development, the final world government system formed would be highly similar to the militarized system Harrison Clark encountered when he came last time.
Each person holds their own belief, society lacks variables, and people no longer talk about emotions, only interests.
Even the choice of a partner for marriage could only be made to produce genetically optimized offspring.
No passion in a marriage, only mechanical, organic combinations.
People in slums lived miserably, and the middle and upper classes fell more rapidly when their capabilities declined.
The survival of the fittest presented itself in a more ruthless manner.
But in the end, that didn’t happen.
All the changes originated from 2520 when a sweeping revolution occurred involving all humanity.
The fast track of civilization was cut off in half.
Later generations called that event the “Great Disaster.”
There are many different opinions about the cause of the Great Disaster, and there is no clear conclusion even now.
But Harrison Clark knew clearly.
It was a disaster artificially created by invaders who remotely controlled the situation.
The reason for the disaster, in the final analysis, was twofold. First, it was because he had sent two brocade guards who didn’t complete their mission.
The brocade guards got lost in the vast space, and they didn’t catch the two travelers.
The invaders still found information about Earth.
Secondly, it was due to the “Morning Wind” created by Carrie Thomas and
Frankie’s uninterrupted playing that overtook “Song of the Wilderness.”
The invaders changed their strategy, trying to use more direct and fierce means to erase humans from Earth.
The unacquainted invaders seemed to avoid meeting humans at all costs..
