Several days later, the "Goddess of Dawn" project officially began.
"Mr. Miles, there are a few things I need to explain to you first."
Dr. Helen Cho had changed into a one-piece sterile research suit. As she carefully checked the equipment settings, she spoke to Miles, who was changing beside her.
"First, even assuming every step goes flawlessly, cultivating a brand-new body will never be quick. We are not simply cloning something—we are building a stable, healthy life system from scratch. Conservatively speaking, it will take at least several years to bring this body to the stable level of a normal human."
She paused, then added, "And that is under ideal circumstances."
"I can find a way around that," Miles replied. "As I said before, I would like to temporarily join your engineering team. I am confident I can shorten that time to a few months."
"Are you sure you are not joking?" Dr. Helen Cho asked in surprise.
Reducing a biological engineering cycle of several years to just a few months was no longer a technological breakthrough. It was practically mythological.
"You will find out soon enough whether I am joking," Miles said.
He truly needed to work with Dr. Helen Cho on how to integrate a "digital life-form" into a "living body." But if it was merely a matter of accelerating the growth of a biological organism, it could not have been easier for Miles. The information in his mind showed that both Obadiah and Stasis excelled at such things.
The root cause of a Chimera's genetic collapse lay in the conflict between multiple Mutant abilities. Setting aside the influence of Mutant powers, Nathaniel's lineage had nearly reached the limits of modern technology in the field of pure genetic cloning.
Dr. Helen Cho fell silent for a moment,
