Chapter 707: Chapter 435: The Stars in the Galaxy Shine Brightly, One Must Rest Only after Getting Drunk【4300 words】_3
The rate of growth slowed down later on, probably because the colonies in these star systems were just newly established, with low population density, and only in those few minutes was the first piece of information sent out.
Scarlett quickly provided an estimate, “The total number of star systems in the Orion Arm with human activities should be around 14,400. The quantum information flow outside our observable range should come from exploration ships.”
Harrison Clark nodded heavily, “Hmm. Continue analyzing the current human technological level, administrative system, regional divisions, and other aspects. Focus on these people, with these appearances… Report back to me in three hours.”
After issuing the command again, Harrison Clark got up and walked out of the command room, returning to the bar in the living area.
He poured himself a glass of vodka and drank it in one gulp.
He clenched his fist tightly.
Humans occupied 14,400 stars in the Orion Arm, with a vast territory of 5,000 light-years.
He didn’t dare to think about such a scene before.
He had never dreamt of it.
He couldn’t describe how he felt when he saw one star system after another light up on the star map, and lines of information connecting them together to form the web representing the Human Empire’s territory.
Surging?
Yes.

Emotional?
Yes.
Turnaround?
All of it.
Perhaps only the phrase “parting the clouds to see the moon” could accurately describe his state of mind.
Although he had read about the successful establishment of thousands of colonies in historical records, that was still an event from 500 years ago, and no one knew what had happened in those 500 years.
He had imagined that the human territory would be vast, but there was always an uneasiness until he saw it with his own eyes.
He was no longer the age to easily dream of beautiful things.
After experiencing nearly a year of struggle in solitude on Earth, he finally tore apart the veil of mystery and saw the long-awaited truth with his own eyes.
His heart raced, beating strong and fast.
Harrison Clark took another fierce gulp of vodka and recalled the star maps and the web that represented human information exchange in his mind.
He muttered to himself, “I knew it. Humans can do it, really can do it! With time, we can accomplish anything!”
Bang!
He slammed his fist onto the alloy bar counter.
He experienced the feeling of failure when he personally caused the apocalypse on Earth, but now he suddenly found an incomparable sense of achievement.
The fierce clash of these opposite emotions within him caused a momentary emotional loss of control.
Perhaps it was too much alcohol or perhaps his feelings were too strong.
In a daze, he saw the Compound-Eyed Observer’s disgusting fly face again, floating in front of the bar, staring at him with a mix of hatred, fear, and dread.
Smash!
Harrison Clark threw the alcohol bottle against the wall.
“This is the empire I built with my own hands across nine timelines! This is just the beginning! I don’t care if you’re the Compound-Eyed Observer or whoever, all of you must die!”
“Humans! We will never stop moving forward! I mean it!”
Even though he knew it was just an illusion, he wanted to shatter it anyway.
Harrison Clark opened the second bottle of vodka.
The third bottle…
The fourth bottle…
He didn’t even know how many bottles he drank in a row. His constitution, which had exceeded 40% gene awakening, couldn’t bear it and even the authentic Ceylon tea he had personally brewed couldn’t cure his hangover.
Perhaps it was his own choice not to stay sober.
His pressure had been too enormous, only now suddenly releasing.
He chose to get drunk and forget his troubles.
