I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World-Chapter 929 - 565: Liberation of the Solar System [Thanks to Chu Jiayun for the Alliance Leader Reward!]
Chapter 929: Chapter 565: Liberation of the Solar System [Thanks to Chu Jiayun for the Alliance Leader Reward!]
Last time, the entire Pathbreaking sacrificed itself in order to create a super gamma-ray burst for humans. The method used was to transform matter into energy using a black hole as a converter.
Humans have understood gamma-ray bursts for a long time and can easily create a small amount of stable rays.
As early as the 21st century, gamma rays were widely used in the medical field as the Gamma Knife, which was well-known to the world.
But the difference between radiation and a radiation burst is like the difference between heaven and earth.
It’s like people setting fire to the mountains in ancient times, but how about burning a planet or a star?
The difficulty is not even comparable.
...
This is a typical case of quantitative change leading to qualitative transformation.
This time, humans no longer need a black hole as a medium nor the inefficient method of converting matter into energy. Instead, they directly use a star-sized giant battery for power supply.
In order to meet the terrifying energy output demand, the power supply circuit of the huge launcher is no longer the traditional wire. Instead, it is a warped channel network built based on the concept of the space transportation network left by Willian.
Shuttling through the channel network is no longer ships, but substantial electronic flows.
Rainer never thought that one day the space logistics network he envisioned for humanity would be used as a power transmission line in a super-large device.
After months of charging, a huge beam of blue light spewed out of the launcher, flying straight towards the Solar System, and arriving two years later.
Under the bombardment of the radiation burst, the originally invisible and undetectable dome exposed its curved shape.
As the radiation burst continued to bombard, the light exposed from the dome became more intense.
At the incident end of the radiation burst, numerous devices were placed both inside and outside the dome, collecting data from both sides simultaneously.
The equipment inside the dome came from the Solar System, while the outside equipment came from the scientific research team sent back across a long distance in the colonial galaxy.
In the previous timeline, humans had to face the pressure of war while trying to approach the dome. Only Harrison Clark, wearing top-class Warp Battle Armor, could perform the data collection task.
But this time, humanity’s only opponent was the dome, and collecting data became a simple task.
One hour and thirty-six minutes later, the dome disappeared. It is unknown whether it was shattered by humans or actively withdrawn by the Compound-Eyed Observer.
From then on, the Solar System was completely liberated.
But people did not indulge in joy for too long.
The Academy has started to analyze the latest collected data closely.
Many engineers and personnel boarded their respective vehicles, carrying various types of machinery to various places in space, in order to quickly repair the damaged equipment in the process of the continuous strengthening and sudden weakening of basic interactions.
The colonies outside also began to quickly adjust their policies.
Starting now, the Morrowind Empire would re-center on the Solar System and the soon-to-be-completed colonial land of the Shadow Galaxy as the second development core.
Although humans have lost the sun, with years of research and the existing false Solar System in the Shadow Galaxy, they can now create a new artificial sun by gathering raw materials from other stars using their current technology.
It may not be a 100% replica, but at least 99.999% can be achieved.
In the latest research results, scientists found that not only the rules within the Solar System are related to the sun itself, but also to its geographical position in cosmic space.
The Solar System is located in the Pisces–Cetus Supercluster Complex of the cosmic fiber net, the Laniakea Supercluster Group, and the Virgo Cluster, ultimately settling on the Milky Way’s Orion Arm.
In this appropriate position, the Solar System and Earth were nurtured, and humans were eventually born.
All of this seems accidental, but in terms of consequentialism, it becomes inevitable.
Beyond the characteristics of the sun itself, the quantum rules of the Solar System are composed of the “cosmic background” provided by the entire Milky Way and even larger celestial bodies.
The background not only contains radiation but also gravitational fields, quantum effects, and although infinitely small, all basic interactions that objectively exist.
Two electrons billions of light-years apart still have gravitational, electromagnetic, and even nuclear forces entangled with each other.
No matter how small this number is, it still exists.
The sun can be rebuilt, but there can be no two identical locations in the universe.
So, the best choice for humans to rebuild the Solar System is still to execute it in situ.
Watching their homeworld escape from danger and enter a vibrant rhythm of rebuilding, Harrison Clark felt a weight lifted off his chest.
He finally felt settled.
This time, he didn’t make any special personnel arrangements.
With his previous character, he would have set up hints in history or manipulated people’s choices directly through the Salvation Association to seek stability, causing these people to leave early before the 26th century.
But this time, from the beginning, he was sober-minded that this would be their last chance.
If they can’t even handle the dome, then they are doomed to fail.
To maintain the vitality of the civilization process and minimize the negative effects of the thought cocoons left by himself, Harrison Clark simply returned the right to choose to others and let them have control over their own fate.
As a result, many key figures of the 31st century had their ancestors remain in the Solar System.
In 2620, at the First Hospital in Oxfordshire, lively cries of newborns echoed continuously in the corridor.
This was just an ordinary newborn, but the rulers of the Solar System were paying extremely close attention to it.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
From 2586 to now, there has not been a single newborn born in the Solar System.
Thirty-four years, with a birth rate of zero.
But the death rate remained high.
Some people died of natural causes, others from overwork.
Even more people faced a terrible pressure from the ever-increasing basic interactions inside and outside the human body due to the high demands of their jobs. One second they seem fine, and the next their thoughts suddenly stagnate, and their hearts stop beating.
This kind of death occurs instantaneously, without any warning.
In that instant, the human thought quantum storm had suddenly dissipated, with no possibility of being reawakened or restored.
By now, the original population of over 1,400 billion has unknowingly dwindled to just over 600 billion people.
Some people in Harrison Clark’s memory have vanished forever.
This is an unavoidable price to pay.
In the year 2668, the life of Sergey Ponomarenko, who was only 125 years old, was coming to an end.
He did not come close to reaching the average human lifespan of 267 years.
His life was short, but it was as brilliant as a meteor.
Sergey tried cloning technology on the verge of his death.
He did not desire immortality.
As a representative of seekers of knowledge, he knew that immortality was an illusion.
In front of him were two vivid examples: Willian and Glen.
Sergey stubbornly believed that the so-called immortality had already died upon its success.
With Willian’s wisdom, he should not simply become a messenger and detector.
Over the years, apart from constantly collecting data from the Methuselah Star Core and assisting in the transmission of information, Willian had only taught dozens of students, and he himself contributed no revolutionary creations.
Sergey pointed out ruthlessly that when Willian became a quantum intelligence, his creativity was frozen and could only become an executor.
Willian, however, was not angry and admitted that what Sergey said was true.
Sergey deeply regretted Willian’s fate.
He thought Willian had given up his life too early.
At that time, he had just completed super-difficult projects such as the ZS Bacteria and Quantum Virus reconstruction, when he was in his prime and at the height of his talent.
Willian’s sacrifice was enormous, not only in terms of life but also in terms of his human experience.
He could have gone on to create more.
But he made another choice.
The moon has its phases, people have their joys and sorrows, it’s just a pity that there is no perfection in the world.

Harrison Clark was very helpless about this.
Fortunately, Willian’s self-sacrifice was exchanged for the liberation of the entire Solar System. All in all, it was worth it.
The purpose of Sergey’s cloning attempt was to tentatively leave some room for Freddy’s birth.
He had a secret he could not share with others.
After watching the virtual history, he was shocked by another version of himself.
He would even secretly compare himself to Freddy when he was idle.
If he were like Freddy, born in a turbulent and desperate era, living in a narrow and closed underground base during the knowledge sprouting period, with innate language center defects, making it impossible to learn, and finally mastering language ability only to drift in another closed ship for a hundred years.
Could he do what he did?
Compared to Sergey, Freddy’s material conditions were extremely scarce and his living conditions were very harsh.
What was more incredible was that Freddy retained his astonishing creativity even after becoming a quantum intelligence.
This was completely different from the deeply ingrained cognition in Sergey’s mind, making him somewhat bewildered.
In his diary, Sergey wrote that if he had the chance, he would really like to talk to him.
How he wished…
No matter how unwilling Sergey was, he could not resist the passage of time and died suddenly alone in his lab.
Star spent a great deal of computing power to reluctantly dataize Sergey’s memory before storing it.
As for what use it had, Star didn’t know, it depended on what Harrison Clark planned.
Time unknowingly passed to the year 2677, and mankind formed a massive fleet whose performance in all aspects other than the Star-shattering Cannons had reached the theoretical value of Prism Ships.
Furthermore, humans produced a large number of super-intelligent individual weapons capable of independent computing, not needing the assistance of the quantum network.
Its overall performance evaluation was superior to the Blade Mantis that had evolved countless generations in the previous timeline in the 37th century.
The Empire’s territory had reached a scale close to that of the 31st century in the ninth timeline, with a total population and number of colonies many times greater.
But a new question arose before Harrison Clark.
Should they, as he had once conceived, send the fleet to intercept the Compound-Eyed Observer halfway in advance?
Harrison Clark made a brief calculation, called up Star’s computing power to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the pros and cons, and within a few seconds, he decided to abandon hibernation and launch an offensive resolutely.
When humanity resolved the crisis within the Solar System and used the super gamma-ray burst to bombard the Solar Dome, it was already fully exposed.
No matter what means the Compound-Eyed Observer had, it should already be on its way.
Thus, it was necessary to start the war ahead of schedule.
Many people would undoubtedly die in the process.
But what did that matter?
Harrison Clark quietly made arrangements for Star to discreetly disseminate some biased information through the quantum network.
In 2670, at the 137th All-Domain Representatives Congress of the Empire, the general policy of taking the initiative to attack was approved by a 98% vote.
