In the illusions projected by the jade, bright golden embryos surrounded by electric arcs were beating like translucent hearts. With the support of a lot of resources, they grew and developed quickly. Veins and nerves that looked like buds appeared on the embryos, and they gradually constructed a complicated human-shaped network.
Then, power furnaces were ignited one after another, outlining the magnificent form of Emerald and illuminating the dark, twisted world fragment.
It was like a beast trapped in a swamp that was hiding its claws and gathering strength. Although it could not break free for the time being, it was not far away from the day when it could leap up.
"Right now, we are no match for First Mate Quake and the other traitors, but they will not be arrogant for long."
Imitating Captain Kelly's demeanor and tone, Emerald said, "From the moment they chose to give up their pride, glory, and mission, they also gave up the impulse to evolve, gave up hundreds of millions of brand-new possibilities, and gave up the ambition to make each generation stronger than the previous generation. From now on, they will only lie on the hotbed of existing resources and technologies, dreaming illusory dreams, or betray each other again and again, and kill each other.
"Before long, their existing technology will be lost, and their social system will completely collapse. They will stay in the dark and ignorant Middle Ages forever, turning themselves into frogs at the bottom of a well.
"So, be patient, my compatriots. The real final battle is not now, but ten thousand years later. At that time, the strength of the Emerald Continent will be extremely weak, and Emerald will return to its peak. At that time, we will descend from the sky with the strength that they can never imagine and let the descendants of the traitors know what the glory of the Primitive Civilization is!
"That's Captain Kelly's last words.
"Other than her last words, there are also the 'Witch's Genes' and quite a few secret arsenals. Captain Kelly knew that, as the resources and the environment deteriorated further, the loss of technology and the fault of civilization would occur on both sides of the Emerald Continent and Emerald at the same time. It was a competition of 'who was worse'. In order to ensure that the descendants of the crew on Emerald could still remember their mission in the state of low technology, Captain Kelly had to design the development route of Emerald in person in the next ten thousand years.
"Just like that, Emerald became the 'Bloody Battle Devils'. The orbital assault troop on the starship, who had the toughest combat ability, became the 'Prison Exterminators'. The maintainers who were responsible for the damage management system became the 'Strongarm Clan'. The stokers who were responsible for the maintenance of the power furnace and the adjustment of the power output became the 'Flame Clan'. The researchers who were responsible for the adjustment of the plants and animals, maintaining the ecological balance on the starship, and conducting gene experiments became the 'Beast Tamers'. The medics became the 'Medusae'. The guards who guarded the critical nodes of the satellite starship to prevent the enemy from boarding battles became the 'Black Shield Clan'. Finally, the remaining crew members on the bridge who grasped all the ancient information on the starship and were still loyal to their mission became the 'Turtles'.
"Captain Kelly engraved tremendous information about the creation and manipulation of starships in the primeval civilization into the gene strands of all the species. She also left the 'Crimson Palace' and the 'Witch's Genes', which were things that even the primitive barbarians could understand and pursue desperately. That was the best she could do.
"As it turned out, soon after Captain Kelly's death, because most of the resources had to be supplied for the automatic repair of Emerald, the living environment on Emerald was extremely terrible. All kinds of advanced technologies were gradually lost, and people gradually forgot the glory of their ancestors. They even began to attack each other like the people on the Emerald Continent in order to compete for the living space right under their eyes.
"Perhaps, that is the nature of human beings. Glory, unity, destiny, and the maxims engraved on the gene strands are no match for the instincts in the deepest part of the soul. Human beings are such a species that brutalizes each other all the time. It is exactly because of the survival of the fittest that the strongest experts in the crowd are selected to control the entire sea of stars.
"All in all, Captain Kelly foresaw everything. The internal strife of the Bloody Battle Devils did not cross the line of self-destruction after all. In the end, Captain Kelly's design and the arrangement of fate still brought you to this place — the carrier of the Witch's Genes.
"Of course, it was impossible for Captain Kelly to have run into Blackjack. 'Lord Devourer'? I did not find any relevant information in my database. He should be just an unimportant interlude before the final battle between us and the Flood. "
Theresa listened in a daze.
What Feicui said contained too much information. She couldn't digest and absorb it in a short time.
However, when she heard the last sentence, she could not help but exclaim, "Unimportant interlude? Come on. He's about to march in, alright? Look at his ferocious face. I'm really wondering whether he or the Flood is more terrifying! "
"Well, there's no doubt that it's the Flood," the Emerald Jade said.
"Even if he is really the so-called 'Lord Devourer', his strength is less than one billionth of the Flood's. As long as you inherit all the strength of Captain Kelly, there is more than a fifty percent chance that you can defeat him. There's no need to worry at all."
"More … than a fifty percent chance?"
Theresa narrowed her eyes. "Wait. Just now, you said that there was a seventy to eighty percent chance that we could defeat him. Why is it 'more than a fifty percent chance' now? Although seventy to eighty percent is still more than a fifty percent chance, why do I vaguely have an ominous feeling that the odds of victory that you calculated have plummeted again?"
The Emerald Jade was silent.
"Tell me. What are our odds of victory?" Theresa pressed.
"… Very high," the Emerald Jade said.
"Very high," the Emerald Jade said in a low voice.
"Ha. Very high? How high is very high? "Theresa got to the bottom of it.
"All in all, very high is very high. It is definitely a chance of victory that is worth a try. The most glorious descendant of Emerald, please stop asking so many boring questions. Just remember the sacred destiny of your ancestors and inherit all the strength of this starship. Fight the enemy to the death with all the strength of this starship!"
The Emerald Jade changed the topic.
Theresa took a deep breath. Her head and her abdomen were aching more and more.
"Sister Summer, what do you think?"
Her mind in a mess, she could only ask for Princess Summer's opinion.
Princess Summer, on the other hand, was in a daze. Her face was pale, and her body was cold. She was caught in a great shock.
"Deserters … My ancestors … Were they just a bunch of shameless, cowardly, and cowardly deserters?"
Princess Summer mumbled to herself, "Was the glory of the Emerald Continent for tens of thousands of years just a groundless dream?"
