Chapter 829: Chapter 824 Activation (Part 2)_1
The Aitken Family’s economy could only be described as average, so there were not many Gene Warriors in the Aitken Family. They had only 20 million active duty Gene Warriors and an additional 30 million sealed and cryogenically preserved, ready to be deployed at any moment. Finn Lewis’s target this time were these Gene Warriors.
The minds of these Gene Warriors were filled with injected knowledge, including those who were cryogenically frozen; though their bodies were in a frozen state, their consciousness was active, existing within a virtual mental world similar to the Luna Starfield Network.
Finn Lewis’s fleet appeared directly outside Star Harbor after a warp jump. Finn had already acquired all the rights and privileges over the Aitken Family’s territories, so everything here belonged to Finn. Luna had long since taken over the base’s defense system, and when Finn arrived, an officer promptly came forward to greet him.
“Your Highness, my name is Matthew Carlos,” said the officer, giving Finn a military salute with respect. He certainly knew who now held the supreme ownership of the entire territory, and Finn’s series of actions had already made him a staunch supporter of Finn. As for the Aitken Family, well, they could go wherever they were meant to go. He was done serving them.
Hearing Carlos’s name, it was clear he was not from the Aitken Family. Hence, Finn smiled, nodded, and said, “Officer Carlos, you have worked hard. I will need your assistance with the affairs within the territory from now on. Someone will contact you regarding the governance of the entire territory. The military will operate outside of the official sector; these two are no longer part of a unified system.”
Only by keeping the military out of politics could the purity of the entire army be ensured.@@@@

The Gene Warriors at Finn’s level could see him, and those on the levels below could also see Finn. These Gene Warriors were arrayed in tidy squads of 10,000, such as the group standing in front of Finn, made up of noticeably different physiques.
“Your Highness, this squad and the ones behind are Gene Warriors who have undergone gene fusion with bear DNA. They possess immense strength, three to five times that of a normal human, and are typically equipped with heavy weaponry. In the middle here, we have those fused with cheetah DNA, their speed, agility, and response capabilities among others are quite superior. Naturally, their strength is also greater than that of a normal human,” Carlos explained the genes within these Gene Warriors to Finn—bears, leopards, wolves, and various other animal genes were all present. However, what slightly moved Finn was that the genes Carlos mentioned were all from animals commonly found on Earth.
They were not genes from animals that Finn had never heard of. Although Finn didn’t know why—perhaps the same animals existed on other planets too—he didn’t ask, and Carlos likely wouldn’t know either, as Finn’s previous research showed that Gene Warrior technology had existed in the Galactic Federation for over a million years.
The exact reason wasn’t something Carlos could fathom.
“Ladies and gentlemen,” Finn nodded and then gestured for Carlos to turn on the speaking device in front of him. Finn then addressed all the warriors below.
With a “swish,” there was the uniform sound of saluting.
“I am here to announce a decision,” Finn spoke, pausing, then continued, “As of today, I will destroy all Gene Warrior production lines within my territories. We will no longer produce any Gene Warriors; that’s the first point. Second, I will release the Gene Lock within all of you, meaning as of today, you will have lifespans just like ordinary people.”
Finn said this, and there was silence below, not a sound to be heard. He paused, then continued somewhat helplessly, “Thirdly, I will grant you the same civil status as other humans, meaning from today on, your rights and responsibilities will be the same as other human residents in my territories, without any difference. No one is allowed to discriminate against Gene Warriors. You will have your welfare guarantees, your salaries, and your own identity documents.”
