The office was filled with all kinds of instruments, screens, and electronic equipment. Besides that, there was also a partitioned area.
Looking through the floor-to-ceiling window that divided the office in two, one could see two cribs, with Sanguinius and Roboute lying in them.
Perhaps because they had eaten and drunk their fill, or perhaps because of the comfortable environment provided by the mattresses and bedding, the two children slept soundly.
Outside the partition.
Sui Yang, still dressed in casual business attire, stood beside the desk, talking with a blonde female researcher in a white coat who sat behind the computer.
This researcher had tied her long hair into a ponytail. Even in work clothes, they did little to conceal her impressive figure. Her name badge read: "Alexia Ashford / Head of Atlas Bioengineering Department."
"..."
After learning the test results from her once again, Sui Yang could not help turning his head toward the partition, his brows tightly furrowed.
Or rather, ever since the Space Gate had opened, frowning had long since become a habitual action for Sui Yang.
What a headache...
He was Chinese, clearly with black hair and black eyes, yet somehow he had inexplicably gained two blonde sons? And sons whose genetic markers were 99.999% identical at every point?
But those were secondary concerns, because the two sons who had "fallen from the heavens" were Primarchs!
If the God-Emperor of Mankind from "Warhammer 30K and 40K" was compared to a god, then the Primarchs, as his direct offspring, were demigods. The Astartes, the Super Soldiers created based on the Primarchs, were angels who stood above mortals.
Anyone unfamiliar with "Warhammer 30K and 40K" would think that picking up two Primarch sons was an absolute "sure win."
But the truth was that half of the Primarchs were either deceived and corrupted into Chaos, or chose rebellion because of their own twisted, childish temperaments. As a result, humanity, which had originally had a chance to escape the shackles of the Warp and enter a new age, was once again plunged into a dark mire.
The final fate of the God-Emperor of Mankind was to sit upon the Golden Throne and illuminate the Astronomican by burning his own being. This allowed humanity to find its bearings while navigating the Warp, while also providing Holy Terra with a Psychic Barrier to prevent monstrous entities from sweeping everything away.
Although the Emperor remained active within the Warp, in the Physical Universe, the Emperor had already become a "living corpse" on the brink of death.
So how could Sui Yang not be worried after learning that his two sons were Primarchs?
Fortunately, his two "fine sons" were not members of the rebellious faction from "Warhammer 30K and 40K," but Sanguinius and Roboute of the loyalist faction.
After personally caring for the two little fellows for three months, Sui Yang had developed some affection for them. Of course, that was inseparable from the two Primarchs' obedient personalities. If they had been Perturabo...
"."
Thinking this far only gave Sui Yang an even worse headache.
The researcher named Alexia seemed not to notice her boss's troubled expression. She continued looking at the computer screen and reported:
"Based on three months of observation and records, as well as the full-body examinations conducted every week, Boss, these two children are growing far faster than ordinary humans.
"Although the current data shows that they are still far inferior to you, Boss, perhaps they will surpass your strength and speed once they reach adulthood? Who knows?"
After saying this, Alexia shrugged, then continued operating the mouse and keyboard to record the day's test results.
In truth, the head of the Bioengineering Department was also a "special" person. She was the Boss of "Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles 2: Code: Veronica."
In the game, Alexia was a genius girl created through genetic engineering by her father, Alexander Ashford. She had graduated from the University of Cambridge at the top of her class at the age of ten.
However, when a child's intelligence surpassed the boundaries of humanity, it could very likely lead to a distorted personality, such as arrogance and paranoia. Alexia, in particular, had also been burdened with the hopes of those around her and the heavy responsibility of reviving her family.
When she learned that she was a product of genetic engineering rather than some "chosen daughter of destiny," she instantly turned evil and murdered her "biological" father.
She eventually injected herself with the Veronica Virus she had developed and voluntarily entered refrigerated hibernation for fifteen years, allowing the virus to slowly and safely fuse with her body.
Unfortunately, due to a series of external upheavals, she had no choice but to awaken four days early. As a result, Alexia failed to evolve into a perfect individual and ultimately died to the Linear Launcher developed by Alexander.
However, the Alexia Ashford of the Main Universe was also a genius. She had become a doctor of biology at sixteen, but she had been born into an ordinary family and was an only child.
Not long after The Times published an article about Alexia's academic achievements, she was hired by Atlas with a high salary and smoothly promoted into the company's core ranks.
Impossible.
After hearing Alexia say that the two Primarchs might surpass him in the future, Sui Yang silently rejected the possibility in his heart.
--
Your dad will always be your dad--
When Sui Yang had successfully absorbed all of Omega's blood and completed [Reset], he could clearly sense that his physical body and Psychic Power had been strengthened.
Therefore, Sui Yang speculated that he possessed some sort of [Plunder] ability. In other words, when he killed a high-value target, he would seize the other party's abilities for himself and thereby grow stronger.
However, he still could not determine whether his troops would likewise trigger [Plunder] after killing a high-value target. But for now, he and Atlas still had plenty of time to experiment.
Moreover, Sui Yang had reason to believe that whenever he increased his own abilities, Sanguinius and Roboute, as his sons, would also be strengthened.
After all, judging from the two children's current data, even if they reached adulthood, they would still fail to meet the minimum standard for a Primarch.
At the same time, Sui Yang felt fortunate that he had once been a gaming enthusiast. When facing all sorts of troublesome problems and phenomena, the gaming experience that had been denounced by so-called "parents" and "experts" had instead provided him with considerable help after he transmigrated into this world.
As the ninth art, games were not what made children addicted. Rather, it was growing up in an environment filled with neglect, blame, mockery, bullying, and a lack of affection, where only immersing themselves in the game world could give them the security and comfort they needed... Of course, perhaps some people were born "evil." Anything was possible, and one could not place all the blame on a single factor.
"."
At some point, Sui Yang had walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window. He was watching Sanguinius suck on his right thumb and Roboute, who preferred to sleep on his stomach.
The experiences of his life after transmigrating had long since made him give up on raising children through ordinary means. But at this moment, Sui Yang silently made a decision in his heart: he absolutely could not allow his sons to grow up in an environment filled with negative emotions.
After a moment of silence.
"If..." Sui Yang put forward an idea to Alexia, who was sitting behind him, one that had lingered in his mind ever since the Space Gate opened:
"Using my genes and those of Sanguinius and Roboute, could you and your team cultivate Super Soldiers apart from Universal Soldiers—ones that could also be mass-produced?"
"Mass-produceable Super Soldiers?"
