Chapter 375 - 257: Stubborn Child_l
The purpose of making all these preparations was only one – whether or not the fleet could withstand the invaders, once the Solar System barrier was lifted, 5,000 Fire Dragon Giants scattered near the opposite corner of the position where the Invader Warships would arrive would immediately disperse and flee, making the greatest effort to preserve the seeds of Earth’s civilization. October 26, 3020.
The vast human fleet hovered silently at the edge of the Solar System barrier.
Space was quiet and solemn.
Harrison Clark stood by the command window of the Commander’s Flagship, his hands behind his back, looking at the position where the Invader Warships were about to arrive in the void ahead.
He turned his gaze and looked at the countless combat units in the three-dimensional star map again.
Unknowingly, his heartbeat began to quicken.
He looked at Nora Camp beside him, as well as the three great leaders and forty senior commanders in the leader-level command channel.
From the flagship’s porthole, twenty-four huge War Fortresses looked like bright moons in the sky.
The 10,000 Main Ships, which were randomly arrayed in an irregular composition, resembled dazzling stars.
One million large battleships, in groups of ten or up to several hundred, were stationed at certain intervals, each large battleship accompanied by several medium escort ships and hundreds of small battlecruisers.
Such a large-scale fleet suspended in an entire expanse of stars gave an incomparably magnificent impression.
Who could believe that Earth’s population of 5.7 billion people would have such a unique population distribution ratio?
The Military System accounted for a total of 2.65 billion people, most of whom were here.
Everyone with combat power, from ages of 160 to 10, had come.
This was obviously an extremely distorted social development model, even in ancient times when households were left without men due to war, the proportion of soldiers had never been so high.
This also reflected the incredible adaptability of human civilization.
As long as there was a need, the entire civilization could so resolutely turn to the pure war mode with ferocious fangs bared.
In addition, there were a total of too million workers and accompanying technical personnel in the fleet.
The remaining three billion humans had all boarded the Fire Dragon Giants.
On Earth, there was no one left except for a group of communication network and electronic equipment maintenance personnel who had voluntarily stayed behind.
Harrison Clark clenched his fists tightly, his heart whispering, “I’m back again!”
Once again, I am standing in front of you with a huge fleet that has never existed in the Solar System before, a super quantum intelligence in theory.
This time we have become much stronger.
I won’t…
Forget it, I believe that this time we will definitely lose.
I will strive to lose more gracefully.
Harrison Clark, who had learned a lot from his previous failures, finally became smarter and decided not to set any more flags for himself.
Maintaining a good tradition, as long as I don’t want to win, I didn’t lose.
Just then, Martha Owen, the technical director of the flagship, came forward and said, “The latest sunspot explosion rays have already left the Solar System, and now we can activate the invisible transmission force field shield.”
Nora Camp nodded, her right hand spread out with all five fingers, connecting to the general communication channel of the entire army.
“All battleships activate invisibility shield! Power output 45%!”
As the voice fell, two seconds later, the huge human fleet suddenly disappeared in space, leaving no trace.
Today, integrating Radium’s stealth battleship technology and with the full support of Star, who no longer needed to analyze Harrison Clark’s gene information, the stealth level of human battleships has been greatly improved.
Especially the functional battleships in the major fleets – the Jellyfish-type Medium Warships, their specially designed force field shields can spread over a vast area, covering hundreds of thousands of battleships, with even stronger concealment effects under the protection of the Jellyfish shields, not even creating ripples from the starlight transmission.
Everything returned to silence, leaving only the soaring killing intent.
At 1 a.m. on October 27, 3020, in the Commander’s Rest Room on the Commander’s Flagship.
Harrison Clark wiped the sweat from his forehead and turned to look at Nora Camp who was sleeping soundly beside him.
Under the faint light, Harrison Clark’s gaze followed her undulating body down, landing on her flat belly.
Harrison Clark sighed deeply, not knowing what his feelings were.
“Don’t bother looking. It’s not easy to get pregnant at this time with your last-minute efforts,” Star’s voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
Harrison Clark’s mouth twitched, his heart cursing, “None of your business.”
“It’s all your fault. I’ve calculated it too, it’s indeed a 1 in 9,703 chance. You two only do it 2.7 times a day on average for this year, not even 1,000 times in total. How can you expect to get pregnant? You should work harder a few more times every day, maybe you would have succeeded a long time ago.”
Harrison Clark just felt annoyed, only God knew how many ancient network terms Star had learned lately in his spare time.
He pretended not to care, thinking, “It’s better not to be pregnant, so I don’t have to feel sad.”
“But you actually hope she can enter that state, so she can gain the powerful emotional ability that suddenly erupts in post-pregnancy female mammals. At the same time, she can accept the baptism of the Song of the Wilderness without any side effects, gaining the ultimate calculation ability. Considering both aspects, you will have a second commanding companion at the Galactic Human level besides yourself. There is no point in lying to me.”
Harrison Clark finally burst into anger, “Shut up! At least I don’t have to lose my child again this way!”
Yes, there were some things he really didn’t know how to handle, he could only blindly rush forward, taking one step at a time, no matter if the outcome was good or bad, he would bear it.
Because such results could not be said to be good or bad.
Not getting pregnant could be more relief, but there would be one less help.
Getting pregnant would eventually lead to more sadness but could get better assistance in the war.
From a personal standpoint, Harrison Clark could bear any outcome.But from the standpoint of civilization, he was willing to bear more regrets with Nora Camp.
“Wait.”
Star did not obediently shut up.
Harrison Clark: “What’s wrong?”
“Already… your X chromosome gene is combining with her egg cell. Her hormonal situation is clearly changing!”
Harrison Clark’s eyes flashed, “Hmm?”
He would have never thought that the nearly one in ten thousand theoretical probability would be reached every time within less than a thousand pairings.
This stubborn girl, who had not yet been born, seemed as determined and resilient as Nora Camp in the course of history.
She was so obstinate, so strong.
In each timeline, she had endured countless hardships and never gave up the hope of coming into the long river of history.
She was also fighting, perhaps in another world.
Harrison Clark even felt that his probability of having offspring with Nora Camp was not one in ten thousand, but one hundred percent.
Even without meeting her, Harrison Clark could still imagine what a tenacious and persistent heroine their daughter, who had inherited both his Galactic Human genes and Nora Camp’s unparalleled combat talent, would be.
Ding!
The personal medical check wearable wristwatch on Nora Camp’s hand gave a crisp sound.
Nora Camp, who had just fallen asleep recently, suddenly opened her eyes, looked at her wristwatch, and then turned her head to the side.
Her face lit up with joy, “It worked.”
Harrison Clark nodded slowly, “Yes, it worked.”
She smiled, “Congratulations, you’re going to be a dad.”
Harrison Clark also smiled, “And congratulations to you on becoming a mom.”
The four hands of the two people clasped together.
Nora Camp: “We have another reason we can’t afford to lose.”
Harrison Clark clenched his teeth, “Anyway, I’ll do everything to help you escape.”
Nora Camp shook her head fiercely, “Impossible! No commander will desert in the face of battle!”
Harrison Clark was stunned, “What if all the comrades have already died?”
Nora Camp thought carefully for a moment, “I can accept leaving with the last escape pod, like last time.”
Harrison Clark’s heart sighed.
He didn’t find Nora Camp’s choice too strange.
She was just that kind of person, and that was her greatest charm.
Nora Camp jumped out of bed and walked toward the small audiovisual room next to the Rest Cabin.
After taking a few steps, she turned back and said, “I’m going to listen to the Song of the Wilderness. You go to bed early and don’t worry about my situation. Rest up. That’s an order!”
Harrison Clark was about to retort, but suddenly remembered that a few days ago at a high-level meeting, he had relinquished his position as the supreme military leader and conferred full command authority to Nora Camp without limit.
He himself only served as the commander of the Special Fleet and the Sky Eagle Legion.
To completely consolidate Nora Camp’s position as the commander of the United Fleet, he had personally vowed not to take matters into his own hands and to follow her orders unconditionally.
Well, now he really had to listen to her.
Harrison Clark did not hesitate, lay down, and fell asleep within a minute.
Nora Camp smiled contentedly, walked into the audiovisual room without looking back, and put on a fully enclosed listening helmet.
The melody of the Song of the Wilderness began to echo in her mind incessantly.
The next morning, at eight o’clock, Harrison Clark, who had slept well in the flagship’s rest room, woke up on time.
Now, he didn’t need an alarm clock.
Others might toss and turn under the pressure of war and eventually suffer from insomnia, but he didn’t. He still slept as naturally as ever, his biological clock ticking like a quartz watch.
He looked at the empty bed next to him.
After eating a hearty breakfast, he went to the corner and opened his personal equipment box.
Already loaded with twenty new miniature curvature engines and eight miniature medium engines, the components of the Ultimate Divine Eagle Armor flew out and converged on his body.
With the gear in place, Harrison Clark looked in the mirror.
The Divine Eagle Armor, with its deep blue hue similar to the cosmic background, flickered with dull, faint light in front of the mirror, exuding an aura of extreme solemnity and killing intent.
Clap.
He saluted the mirror in the 21st-century military style and turned around to leave.
The mighty human fleet was still lurking in the universe, with an hour and thirty minutes left before the Advent.
With the experience of the previous time, Harrison Clark could once again exert great influence among the humans. The human fleet changed its ambush strategy, no longer prematurely approaching the Solar System Barrier to attempt a sneak attack, but maintaining a distance of one hundred thousand kilometers from the barrier’s edge.
Since last night, the entire army had been arranged in formation beforehand, without the need for mobilization.
At 9:45 am, Harrison Clark led several elite Sky Eagles to quietly emerge from the flagship.
At 9:50 am, the alarm sounded, and the Advent began!
