Warhammer: Empire Reboot

Finally, the cell suturing technique was added, extracted from the memories and samples of the Dark Eldar Blood Gate Master. Researchers on the dark side of the Empire used this technique to repair rejections between different genetic systems.

The three technologies ultimately formed the finished product we see today.

The data bars project a series of physical indicators.

From embryonic development to delivery, the new human takes only three months.

Around the age of twelve, their bodies reach full maturity, and their nerve responses, muscle density, and skeletal load-bearing capacity are already close to those of Astartes reserve recruits, even without combat training.

They eat normally, grow naturally, can reproduce, and retain the complete emotions and creative abilities of ordinary humans.

An Astartes is selected from thousands of teenagers, consuming a large amount of precious organs and resources, and undergoes many years of training before it can become a combat force.

The new humans can be mass-produced through a complete industrial system. As long as they are provided with nutrition and education, they will become adult warriors who are two meters tall and can withstand the load of heavy exoskeletons in a dozen years.

Isa walked slowly along the incubation chamber and gave a very objective commentary.

"Your anthropologists have created a miracle, but... it is missing the last piece, and the most fatal piece of the puzzle."

"Cloned and pieced-together genes will inevitably lead to genetic collapse after dozens of generations of reproduction, as they lack a source anchor."

Lawson laughed: "This is one of the main reasons why I was willing to go to war to take you back from Nurgle Garden. Now, tell me your plan."

"Your blood."

Isa pointed to Lawson's heart: "Take a drop of your primordial blood and infuse it into the underlying genetic chain of these 30,000 people. You will become their physical and conceptual 'genetic father.' Then, I will bless them with my life-giving divine power."

The combination of these two factors not only ensures that their genes will not produce any adverse mutations for three hundred generations, but more importantly, they will possess the seven emotions and six desires and creativity of ordinary people, but deep within their genes and souls, 'absolute loyalty' will be etched into them.

Swarm intelligence uses Isa's suggestions to deduce and verify.

After confirming that it was in line with the current plan, Lawson lightly traced a line with his fingertip across his palm, and a drop of blood spilled out, instantly transforming into 30,000 genetic factors that were invisible to the naked eye, which were precisely injected into each culture chamber.

At the same time, Isa crossed her arms in front of her chest.

Emerald green life force spread out from beneath her feet.

The life fluctuations within the culture chamber rapidly intensified.

Some of the gene chains that originally had slight deviations began to correct themselves, and the interfaces between the soul and the body that were not yet fully aligned closed again under the nourishment of the life force.

The two forces formed a complete cycle within the base.

Lawson's bloodline establishes the racial origin, while Isa's authority determines the genetic future.

Swarm intelligence is responsible for recording all changes and deleting any structures that might cause subspace contamination.

Ten minutes later, the central data column issued a notification.

[Gene base anchoring complete.]

[The structure of soul affiliation is stable.]

[Mother template consistency rate: 100%]

At almost the same moment, the depressurization sounded in all 30,000 culture chambers.

laugh--

The dark blue nutrient solution was rapidly drained through the bottom pipe, and the transparent hatch slid open to both sides.

White water mist gushed out from the ring-shaped matrix.

Thirty thousand new humans opened their eyes one by one.

They were just born, but their brains were already programmed with basic language, body control, and how to use swarm networks.

The brief confusion after waking up lasted less than a second, after which I simultaneously perceived an incredibly clear presence in my consciousness.

Lawson is their creator and the ultimate source to which all genes and souls ultimately point.

Immediately afterwards, 30,000 new humans knelt on one knee.

"Father God."

Isa watched this scene quietly.

She could sense their loyalty, and also their independent and complete souls.

"A truly perfect creation."

Isa reached out and touched the forehead of the female new human at the front.

A moment later, a strange look appeared on his face.

"Their genetic dominance is stronger than I expected."

"As long as the races that mate with them can reproduce normally, the genes of the new humans will become absolutely dominant."

Isa withdrew her hand.

"When a child reproduces with an ordinary human in the Empire, the child will directly inherit the complete template of the new human, while the superior traits of the other parent will be retained as secondary fragments."

"Even if we combine with the Ark Eldar, the outcome will not change much."

Interest appeared in Lawson's eyes.

"Are the children born a new kind of human?"

"Their physical structure, soul affiliation, and main racial characteristics will all lean towards the new humans."

Isa looked at him helplessly.

"They may retain the Eldar's longer lifespan, more acute senses, and pointed ears, but their life essence belongs to the race you created."

Lawson quickly thought of another use: "The Eldar on the Ark have always had a very low birth rate, haven't they?"

Isabella immediately had a bad feeling.

Looking down at the 30,000 tall, healthy, and powerful new humans, Lawson smiled.

"In that case, we can encourage Eldar women on the Ark to marry new humans."

"The Eldar solves the population crisis, and the Empire's dark side gains better offspring; neither side suffers a loss."

Isa gave a wry smile.

"If the children ultimately belong to the new humans, will those arks still be considered Eldar arks after several generations?"

"Why not?"

Lawson smiled quite frankly.

"The pointed ears will still be there, the lifespan will be longer, and the psionic talent may also be retained. At most, they will switch to the Imperial language, receive hive education, and incidentally change their allegiance to me."

"They can live in a world that is not directly threatened by Slaanesh, with stable food, industry and army, which is much better than drifting in the Ark."

Isa had already understood the true meaning of the plan.

Intermarriage is only superficial.

The new humans' extremely strong assimilation ability will gradually change the population structure of the Ark Eldar over several generations. Those proud ancient bloodlines will still exist, but will be incorporated into the new racial system created by Lawson.

Guns and cannons did not penetrate the ark.

The warships did not need to force the Eldar to surrender.

As more and more Eldar women choose new human partners, time itself will allow Lawson to complete its conquest.

Looking at Isa's slightly complicated expression, Lawson added, "The dark side of the Empire has rules; these things are entirely voluntary."

Isa sighed softly.

Given the current situation of the Eldar in the Ark, so-called voluntary participation is likely to be more effective than coercion.

The new humans are physically strong, their lifespans are continuing to increase, and their souls are protected by the swarm and Lawson, so they don't have to worry about falling into the mouths of Slaanesh after death like ordinary Eldar.

Once the first batch of hybrid offspring are born healthy and show a growth rate far exceeding that of the Ark infants, many Eldar women will make their own choices.

Isa could not deny that racial integration was at least more acceptable than complete extinction.

The extensive blessing she had just received had exhausted a great deal of her divine power, so Lawson arranged for his guards to take her back to her crystal palace to rest.

After Isa left, Lawson checked the data that Swarm Intelligence had just generated.

[A direct bloodline carrier of the host has been detected.]

[Life Template Stability: Absolutely perfect.]

[Soul's affinity: 100%]

The target population has met the basic unit replacement requirements.

Lawson's gaze suddenly froze, and more information unfolded.

The underlying system summoning logic is being refactored.

Refactoring complete.

The default carrier template for the cornerstone sequence has been updated.

[Former vehicle: Imperial standard human.]

[Status: Deprecated.]

[New Vehicle: The Empire's New Humans.]

[Basic physical fitness: Astartes reserve level.]

[Neural reflexes, skeletal load-bearing capacity, mech compatibility, and battlefield survivability have been recalculated.]

Lawson stared at the interface for a few seconds, almost bursting out laughing.

He finally understood just how much benefit Isha's proposed bloodline anchoring had brought.

In the past, the Cornerstone sequence was the largest source of basic troops for the Empire's dark side.

They can summon an unlimited number of bees and quickly undergo swarm training, but their basic physical bodies still belong to ordinary humans.

When facing Chaos Space Marines and Advanced Tyranids, the only way to make up for the gap is through combat formations, mech formations, firepower density, and numbers.

The original new humans belonged to a separate population cultivated by Bayer.

The system will only classify it as an auxiliary population and cannot directly replace the summon template of the cornerstone sequence.

A drop of Lawson's primordial blood changed everything.

Thirty thousand mother plants became his direct descendants.
