Dimensional Store System In Apocalypse - Chapter 369

From what Zhang Qin Feng was told, it seems that the Cloning Facility in this Programmable Shelter works a little differently from the one they had back in Turbine Town.

Perhaps because they were made with the thought of running it as a test trial, the restriction on the system was also not as strict as the one assembled in Turbine Town.

This allowed the operator to program the machine freely. And the differences alone could create quite a big gap between bulk production and high-end goods.

Although it sounded unethical if heard by those from the modern world, this wasn’t the case for post-apocalypse. After all, there’s no such thing as human rights or humane treatment here. Science had quite a reputation here for being direct, cruel, and conducted for everyone’s good to the people in this world.

Since he wasn’t a local in this world, Zhang Qin Feng does struggle with their state of mind once in a while, even though he didn’t openly express them. And at the same time, he was at ease because of this mentality they had.

At the very least, the thing would be going on a different route in case human right and humility was practiced when they were attacked by the Western Strand Division.

Worst come to worst, Zhang Qin Feng might be captured by his own trusted companion for them to protect themselves and their own selfish interest.

“Hoya, listen to me first before you agree to my request. It was true that I required manpower. But at the same time, activating many clones in bulk wasn’t my only demand.” Zhang Qin Feng said. He had a feeling that he should make it clear before they ended up with more misunderstandings later.

“I… I don’t quite understand your meaning, Boss. If manpower wasn’t all you need from the Cloning Facility, then what else?” Hoya might be intelligent, but his thought was too simple. Perhaps this was where he’s lacking.

While Hoya believes that their decision would put them in a better light in Zhang Qin Feng’s sight, it was an entirely different opinion in the latter’s mentality.

If Zhang Qin Feng’s opponent wasn’t Hoya but those shrewd businessmen from the modern world, won’t they try to open their jaw wide to take a bite off Zhang Qin Feng?

“Listen carefully before you decide again, as you might have a change of mind after this. I need clones to run my organization efficiently, but my sight does not stop here.”

“My aim was to produce super-clones capable of thinking and making decisions on their own. They would also have high resistance to disease and infection, particularly against Seed Crystal Virus. Also, I will try to make them capable of reproduction and succeeding the people of pre-apocalypse.” Zhang Qin Feng said.

“This…” Hoya was speechless after listening to what Zhang Qin Feng had just said.

For the first time in Hoya’s life, the word “heretic” appeared in his mind while he was looking straight at Zhang Qin Feng. But at the same time, he had no idea why he was attracted to this individual.

“I’m sorry to ask, but Boss… On what base do you dare to make such a claim?” Hoya asked. Even he had no idea what motivates him to be so eager to listen to how Zhang Qin Feng might answer him.

“On what base? Well, on the fact that I am indeed the savior chosen to save this world.” Zhang Qin Feng smiled and replied to Hoya.

After making sure that his intention to create the super-clones was disclosed to Hoya, the people responsible for the operation on this facility were called back to work. Their first job was to activate all the ready-to-deploy clones to smoothen the overall process on the Vermilion Empress.

While the task to reconstruct the genetic code and programming the super-clones would be left to Valerian and Carol, his new blood-biologist. Zhang Qin Feng decided to offer some of his own blood as the medium for this cloning to make the miracle possible.

They can be said to be Zhang Qin Feng’s own blood and flesh in a way. And since they were no different from him in a certain way, Zhang Qin Feng made sure he adjusted their appearances slightly. These clones would be loyal to him and himself alone.

It was a costly investment, and this was an entirely new project, even to Valerian, Carol, and Hoya. The resources to make sure the clones grow up healthily and correctly cost Zhang Qin Feng an astronomical amount of resources.

As he would like to see how good they could fare in real life, Zhang Qin Feng decided to set the first two clones born around seventeen to eighteen years old. This would also allow him to oversee their growth from the moment they reach adulthood.

And from the two researcher’s estimations, this entire process would be done in less than two months. To be exact, The maturing tank could accelerate the clone’s growth by one year for every three days they took. This means it would be between 51 to 54 days to produce an adult Zhang Qin Feng clone.

Meanwhile, the progress in attacking the continent has continued without facing any major obstacle. Their situation can be said to be staying at a stalemate situation, where both sides could not overpower the other for various reasons.

Although Zhang Qin Feng constantly had his Duranium Shard stash refilled to the brim, this was not a good thing at all. As for the prototype generator, there have been a few attempts to include them in an application. But while it was working efficiently on full power, they found out that the process to recharge it back to the optimal state was a  hassle and time-consuming.

In a blink of an eye, the fifth month was here.

The time actually passed quite fast as Zhang Qin Feng started to miss the time he shared with Satella. Although he tried to locate her covertly, it always returned with nothing about Wind Base Group. It was like all the officers were killed during the battle half a year ago.

Until a rumor about the leader of Wind Base Group was in captive was heard by one of Zhang Qin Feng’s informants.

“What did you say? The leader of Wind Base Group is still alive?” Zhang Qin Feng sounded emotional as he grabbed the informant on his outfit’s collar.
