Elderly Armament War Gods_l

Over 90% of the animals in the entire Solar System were basically infiltrated.

Z Bacteria became ubiquitous in Earth’s atmosphere, soil, and oceans.

On every planet, in every settlement, space station, and even within human battleships, Z Bacteria were already present everywhere.

Ants, mosquitoes, locusts, flies, rats, snails, slugs, leeches, shellfish, earthworms, lions, tigers, elephants, whales…

All creatures, big and small, had almost no chance of escaping.

The time had come.

In 2558, a sudden catastrophe descended upon them.

The more concealed their hibernation was, the more violent the outbreak

would be.

What humanity had to face this time was an army of massive, extinct animals

— countless and omnipresent.

The war, while anticipated, had begun without warning.

Under the background of the 26th century, this was a war whose threat level was no less than Harrison Clark confronting the spherical battleship.

From the very beginning, it was a fierce fight, and humans were instantly pushed toward the brink of extinction.

In the historical records, this war was named the Great Extinction.

A powerful civilization could destroy a lesser one in a myriad of ways.

There was no need to come personally- just let an insignificant individual within that civilization far away press a button or turn a switch.

The world of lesser civilizations would then be enveloped by endless darkness, under the threat of doom.

Before opening this thick volume of war history, Harrison Clark’s fingers trembled slightly.

He knew that many people would die.

It was hard for him to control his emotions.

He had tried his best to avoid such a situation, but it had still happened.

He didn’t blame the programmer named Panda.

He blamed himself.

In order to increase the probability of hatching stars anew and reduce the potential threat of stars, he had advanced the development of human artificial intelligence capabilities. At the same time, he had made many comprehensive indirect influence equipment.

Looking back from the 31st century, he had indeed done so. But he subconsciously neglected another issue.

It was an unintentional mistake, but one couldn’t have it all.

In the previous timeline, Sergey’s encryption algorithm had indeed remained until the 31st century.

But in this timeline, the technological context of the era was changing. The computer systems were being upgraded, and the top programmers were also changing.

The once-invincible algorithm was no longer unbeatable, and it made sense for people to crack it ahead of schedule.

It was only logical that Mason Howard and other civilization leaders of the time would make that decision.

Putting himself in their shoes, if he stood in that position, he would likewise be unable to resist the temptation to prepare the S Bacteria Vaccine in advance.

Harrison Clark sighed. This was ultimately my mistake.

I’ve been lulled by the pleasure of achieving phased victories, and my alertness has decreased.

Alas.

At the time, humans had not yet mastered the Dyson Membrane or Matter-Energy Conversion Technology.

Although humanity had been preparing for war in full gear for 58 years, it was far from enough.

This was not a mistake, this was helplessness.

After the S bacteria failed to show up on schedule, even the smartest scientists couldn’t give specific advice.

Everyone knew they should set aside the war that was to take place five hundred years later and prioritize solving the current problem.

But what was the problem?

In which way would the invaders strike?

No one knew until the outbreak.

So all they could do was consider all possible aspects in an all-round and multi-angle way.

Develop medicine and biology vigorously, taking infectious diseases as the main prevention targets.

Strengthen the popularization of “Morning Wind” for all, watch people’s psychological conditions at all times, and prevent the logic of thinking from taking over as a secondary prevention target for possible mental infiltration.

As a long-term plan, moderately develop large warships and heavy space weapons based on conventional space warfare thinking.

Moderate, not full-scale development, was due to the energy production limits imposed by the Dyson Cloud and the scarcity of materials under the background of not being able to skillfully master Mass-energy Conversion Technology.

After all, no matter how large the current war tools are produced, they will probably only become scrap iron after five hundred years. Recycling them would waste a lot of energy, and some rare non-renewable resources would be even more so.

Furthermore, between 2468 and 2500, humanity had consumed a vast amount of relatively scarce natural metallic resources from the solar system while manufacturing nearly 100,000 large-scale expeditionary colonization ships. As a result, they could not mass-produce top-tier equipment despite wanting to. Lastly, there would be no more wars within humanity. Instead of exhausting military resources at present, it would be wiser to focus on technology development, only produce experimental obsolete equipment for continuous improvement, and provide technical guidance.

Equip appropriate basic military gear, and when the time is right, decisively ramp up production capability.

This was the best strategy.

The lurking crisis was dangerous, but the impending doom in five hundred years would be even more menacing—some balance had to be struck.

In summary, considering various factors, the enemy was too strong, too cunning, and too ferocious when they attacked. Humanity, inadequately prepared and armed only with conventional military equipment, quickly fell into a state of helpless resistance.

The Extinct Animals army not only possessed terrifying destructive power but also strict organization, excellent command, and meticulous arrangements after so many years of preparation. They crafted a grand and precise war plan. The powerful Extinct Animals had combat power comparable to Harrison Clark’s use of the Azure Dragon Armor.

Humans at the time had equipment close to the Azure Dragon Armor that Harrison Clark once wore but had not mass-produced it..
