Chapter 885: Chapter 534: Dominating the World_1

Recovering his emotions was the very state Harrison Clark had been seeking.

He wanted to leave behind a stronger will to resist, and provide more materials to unite the spirit of future generations in the evolution of civilization for the next thousand years.

But he would keep such thoughts to himself.

Anyone who knew of these ambitious aspirations would surely laugh their teeth off at him.

But now, he discovered that the combination of truer emotions and higher perspectives was actually a new kind of torture, quite similar to the eternal loneliness of becoming quantum intelligence.

He knew too much, yet he easily empathized with others’ joys and sorrows, causing his emotions to be constantly unstable and uncontrollable.

...

He hadn’t expected this.

Over the years, as the Salvation Association’s organizational structure grew stronger and work was more clearly divided among different sectors, a vast amount of information would always find its way to him, ranging from the state of the world to intimate details of key figures.

Sometimes he even had to remind himself not to pry too much, yet when something was reported to him, he couldn’t always take his eyes away.

Therefore, he gradually developed a habit of talking to himself at his grandfather’s grave whenever he felt tired or weary. He took it as his personal method for balancing his emotions and condition, with the assurance that no one would hear him.

It was his secret, known to no one besides Carrie Thomas, not even Avril Green.

Now he and Avril weren’t as close.

It could be Avril’s choice, or perhaps Harrison’s inner emphasis on shaping personal will had become more intentional, or possibly his determination as a “human” grew stronger.

Quiet changes were taking place.

He knew that as the power in his hands grew stronger and unchecked, if he didn’t do something, his prolonged existence in the 21st century would eventually be corrupted by power.

Moreover, this time, he intended to extend his lifespan as much as possible; he would live a long time.

He had to be vigilant, constantly reminding himself.

He would often engage in self-examination, asking philosophical questions like, “Who am I? What am I going to do? Where am I going?” Only through daily introspection and remembering his historical mission could he avoid indulging in power, becoming a stumbling block for civilization, and ruining all his efforts.

Thus, he couldn’t afford any flaws to maintain his unblemished state of mind and would never compromise his original intentions just to please someone else.

Even if that someone was Avril Green.

But on this matter, it was Avril who spoke up first.

She openly admitted her feelings for Harrison Clark.

Now that things had developed this way, with Avril’s political advancement, her thoughts had changed.

Embarking on a political career was different from ordinary people; one couldn’t have obvious flaws in their life, as it would affect their final success.

Therefore, Avril believed it was time to publicly break off their engagement.

Otherwise, the world would think they were married, with Harrison Clark constantly in the company of Carrie Thomas.

A divided family would become a “blemish” for her and negatively impact her political career.

In the past, when she only wanted to sing and didn’t care about public opinion, it didn’t matter. But now it was different.

At the time, Avril never imagined Harrison would progress so quickly. In just a few short months, he no longer needed her protection.

She didn’t feel any significant regret, just smiled and said,

“I once thought I understood life, but looking back, I was still naive and ignorant back then.

I had always planned to remain alone for the rest of my days; having met you is already a great fortune.

I know your pursuit.

To be your most trusted comrade and work alongside you is already more than enough for me in this life.

We are both perfectionists.

This time, since you’ve decided to keep moving forward, I will not be a burden to you.

I have no regrets, only the desire for a clear conscience.

As such, it’s unnecessary to possess what we love.

Being together would amount to nothing more than a physical exchange, which is meaningless.

Instead, I’d rather join hands with you and work towards the same goal wholeheartedly.

As a so-called politician, I’m fully aware of the consequences.

That way, you’ll be unburdened, and I’ll be undistracted.

From now on, you don’t have to worry about anything with me.”Avril Green’s seemingly equivocal words made the physical distance between the two infinitely distant, but the distance between their souls infinitely close.

She finally understood Harrison Clark.

She saw through everything, no longer wallowing in self-pity or secretly admiring Carrie Thomas.

Everyone has their own fate.

She chose to walk on her own destined path, putting down all burdens and focusing wholeheartedly on moving forward.

After speaking, Avril smiled confidently, turned and walked away.

Her figure was brisk, and her steps were light.

Harrison Clark watched her walk farther and farther away.

After a long time, he touched his own face and realized he was smiling as well.

Harrison admitted that his happiness and relaxed feeling after being dumped was quite unique.

In 2026, the second year when Avril decided to devote herself to politics, she was promoted to a key position in the domestic technology sector department.

Soon after, Harrison decided to personally lead the upgrade of the initial Human Scientists’ Living Security Association into the Global Technology Alliance.

In this new alliance, he opened the doors not only to his close supporters but also to his “rebels.”

The alliance did not involve any scientific concepts. Harrison allowed to agree to disagree, and he personally approved the idea to treat different concepts equally.

He would do his best to assist any person or team with difficulties in academics, whether it was in terms of money or knowledge.

At first, people didn’t believe it, but as years went by and more and more people received his guidance or funding, innovative projects that were originally stuck made successive breakthroughs, and people believed.

From 2040 onwards, more and more scientists and technology companies announced their joining the alliance.

Compared to the original Security Association, the Technology Alliance was more binding for its members, which raised the alarm for some due to the delivery of many stakes.

But then Harrison released some information.

He had completed the crude version of the Azure Dragon Armor and recorded a two-hour-long operation demonstration video.

Though the material and energy technology in the 21st century, his crude version of the Azure Dragon Armor couldn’t be compared to the original one. With a larger size and less precision in components, it was vastly different.

However, the four key points were enough to astonish people.

First, he installed a controllable nuclear fission power core in the Azure Dragon Armor and created an ultra-high-efficiency circuit system.

Second, he consumed a large amount of laboratory-scale resources to create an amazingly efficient self-sustaining Medium Engine in the atmosphere that could break the sound barrier at ten times the speed of the current fastest fighter jet, with a maximum cruising flight speed of 80 Mach.

Third, he placed the first-generation Artificial Intelligence Assistant “Star” in the crude Azure Dragon Armor, which had a powerful comprehensive information analysis capability, helping him attack up to a hundred targets simultaneously.

Fourth, to test and prove the defensive capability of the crude Azure Dragon Armor, he cooperated with the domestic military authorities to conduct a small-scale nuclear test and personally walked out of the epicenter wearing the armor.

From then on, silence prevailed, and world peace was achieved.

This year, governments around the globe found themselves speechless.

The whole world had been dominated by one man.

People looked down at their wearable projection watches, gazed at the magnetic levitation channel shuttles flying all over the sky, then looked at the Compound Eye Crisis game that 80% of the total population played, and watched Summit Ventures dominating various fields like movies, music, and animation. Finally, they counted everything around them, and over 95% of all things had Summit Ventures products or technology.

This time, it took Harrison only twenty years to infiltrate his influence into every inch of civilization.

Many of the things Harrison had said before quietly spread out.

He never intended to hide it.

The end of the world was not out of reach.

Of course, this wouldn’t cause any social unrest.

Because all of it was conjecture, believe it or not.

He brought the large-scale questionnaire survey on social experiments he and the Oxford Professor completed back then into reality.

“What would you do and choose if you were faced with the end of the world in a thousand years?”

The answer lies in everyone’s heart.

Harrison didn’t care what other people thought.

With a thousand years to go, nobody could live that long, and there wouldn’t be too many people panic-stricken over this.

Even if there were, it wouldn’t be a big problem.

Such “inferior” genes with self-destructive tendencies should be eliminated by time.
