Ships of all sizes drifted through the skies above Karamat.
With the surge in resources, planetary defense systems had been constructed around Karamat and Gamma World.
Electromagnetic railguns over a thousand meters long lay hidden within dark fortresses. Their anti-inertia and kinetic systems were enough to ensure the fortresses would not be sent flying by the railguns' recoil.
A constructed ringworld structure encircled Karamat's companion star. It was both a megastructure and a wonder of the world, as well as a barrier and ring of security protecting the orbit from enemy occupation.
Concealed space mines and spatial supergravity wave traps had also been deployed around Karamat, serving as security beyond the planet itself.
Any vessel passing through without authorization would be unable to cross this world safely.
Together, these measures would safeguard the world.
Meanwhile.
Karamat.
Underground gene experimentation facility.
Large numbers of expeditionary soldiers were being activated.
These cultivated seeds, carefully selected by Karamat, underwent the strictest monitoring. Their Gene-seeds required long-term observation and multiple rounds of testing. Only qualified subjects would be infused with complete souls, and at every step, someone personally scanned them with a Warp Distortion Detector.
Scarlet beams swept across them one after another.
"Teacher, no Warp energy detected."
"Even if none has been detected, we still need to remain vigilant. Abnormal energy can seep in anywhere. It may be hidden within these unencoded genes. Gene-seeds are good things, but unfortunately, we lack a perfect control group. Our research is still limited to the Salamander Gene-seed template." A researcher picked up a Gene-seed with tweezers, placed it into the test subject's body, and observed the reaction.
"If we had a perfect Gene-seed for reference, producing these conquerors for the expeditionary army would be much easier—and much safer."
"How about asking the Governor for some perfect
