A Core Ship From The Start-Chapter 361 - 280 Purification_2

Chapter 361 -280 Purification_2

Now, this world no longer has any stored energy reserves.

What’s next? Either they must revert to felling trees and mining coal as in the Middle Ages, or they’ll have to focus on developing renewable sources like wind power, hydroelectric power and solar power. Don’t even think about oil or nuclear power stations now. The raw materials have been exhausted long ago, leaving nothing leftover. As all of this world’s devices were previously driven by Imu Energy, this means that those once-useful machines… are now nothing more than scrap.

After all, Imu Energy itself was destroyed, wasn’t it?

What the future holds is anyone’s guess.

With that thought, Duanmu Huai took his eyes off the horizon and looked at the system interface before him.

[Hidden Mission “Survival and Destruction” complete]

...

[Mission Evaluation: Calm and composed]

[For humans, the end of one hardship is the beginning of another, but humans will not stop and continue to move forward]

[Acquired Random Gift Box +1]

The mission evaluation was not very high, perhaps because Duanmu Huai did not discover the presence of the Imu contaminant in time and only dealt with it after it had turned into a plague. Well… indeed, by the standards of the Tribunal, Duanmu Huai’s actions were barely satisfactory. After all, a Judge should investigate any threats to humans on each planet, and Duanmu Huai clearly did not realize the hazardous potential of the Imu substance. His belated remedial act… an average evaluation can be justified.

According to the style of operation of the Tribunal, they ought to nip dangers in the bud. For instance, if they find someone attempting to mislead the masses somewhere, they will definitely hang him on the spot instead of waiting until he had manipulated a flock of followers.

However, even though the mission evaluation was just average, Duanmu Huai was thoroughly satisfied with the training outcome. Not only did the Star Realm Army enhance its capability for joint ground operations, but they also gained valuable experience in combat within the body of a giant beast. The next step is to upgrade the level and let them experience a Star War first-hand.

There was no need to go hunting around this time, as Duanmu Huai had already located an area of civilization. Despite its advancement to the level of cosmic warfare, the civilization had yet to reach the heights of the Chaos Legion, rendering it a perfect battleground for training the Star Realm Army in space warfare.

However, before we move on to that, Duanmu Huai needed to deal with a few things.

“Well done, Miss Rebecca, Sherry.”

Duanmu Huai looked at the two and nodded.

“Our partnership ends here. What are your plans?”

“Uncle Tall, what do you plan to do next?”

Sherry looked at Duanmu Huai curiously and asked. Pondering for a while upon the question, Duanmu Huai answered-

“We will proceed to another battlefield to help humans fight against the Alien Invaders. As I have said, the purpose of the Tribunal is to protect humans, to eliminate all threats to humankind.”

“Alien Invaders!”

Upon hearing this, Sherry’s eyes sparkled immediately. She had grown up watching similar movies, naturally, she was quite keen on this matter.

“Uncle Tall, I also want to join the Tribunal! Can I?”

“You??”

After hearing Sherry’s request, Duanmu Huai gave it some thought… well, the Tribunal indeed lacked a biologist. Although Sherry may not be a mechanic, Duanmu Huai could ensure her purity and loyalt based on her past experiences.

“Of course, as long as you understand that this is not a simple matter. As a member of the Tribunal, you must obey orders completely, even those that seem irrational. This isn’t easy-street, at times, to destroy the roots of evil, we might even have to kill tens of thousands of innocent lives, can you accept this?”

“Well… this…”

A bit lost, Sherry was now hesitating.

“I am not sure…”

“Good.”

Duanmu Huai smiled back at Sherry.

“You have qualified.”

“Eh?”

Sherry was shocked to hear his unexpected response, and Duanmu Huai reached out to pat her head.

“That was also a test, indeed, the Tribunal does make sacrifices, but such sacrifices are never made casually or easily. Those who keep the idea of ‘this is a necessary sacrifice for a brighter future’ often fall into the Abyss of darkness.”

Duanmu Huai snorted. He had come across similar situations plenty of times when he was a player undertaking missions. Many times, even the BOSSes had committed heinous acts, only defending them saying “sacrifice is necessary for a great future, something they were compelled to do.”

Players had often debated whether it was really necessary to achieve their objectives by any means, or they should make choices even for the sake of objectives.

Take drug experiments for instance, according to the “ethical guidelines”, animal experiments should be conducted to test if the compound is harmless, which only after clinical confirmation is permitted for human trials. Only drugs that pass human clinical trials can be brought to market.
