[The last procedure, the black carapace implant, has been successfully broken and can shape the weakened product in equal proportions, and it is not certain whether it is suitable for the body structure of mortals, but without considering the exclusive power armor, the cost performance of the operation is not high. 】

[In addition, there are three additional procedures that have been inadvertently discovered, which are not part of the current Astarte transformation steps, but are quite practical and referenced, and can be partially modified and promoted in the future as appropriate.] 】

[Tendon cables, an ode to the pituitary gland, and something that will be called the Furnace of Belisarius in the future: strengthening strength, strengthening thinking, and strengthening survivability, respectively, it is difficult to imitate, but it is not impossible, and I am thinking about whether it can be weakened and added to the surgical transformation of mortals.] 】

[The Lord of Mankind has long mastered or known these technologies, and he sees their role in the future, and Heydrich, who inherited the Emperor's biological knowledge, is also born to know all this: Until now, I have seen all this, and I have seen the future in disguise. 】

[If it can be weakened, then the reconstructive surgery package originally designed for mortals will have to be recuperated again, and the cost of adding new steps will also have to be considered.] 】

[All in all, everything is going relatively smoothly so far, and it is expected that the goal can be completed before the planned time: the transformation of the Astarte warrior is much easier than I expected, and thanks to the precious legacy left by my ruthless blood relatives, it is relatively easy to thoroughly understand these techniques and all the matters involved in them.] 】

With a soft sigh that seemed to be a smile, Morgan temporarily finished her work, and she tore off her white gloves a little tiredly, and the long research time made the fine gelatinous matter stick to the sweat drops on her fingertips, and she was a little disgusting.

The Lord of the Second Legion at this time was very different from any time she was in the outside world: she wore her hair tied up high and hid her body in a scientist's lab coat, a white, fully enclosed dust-free suit, which she would wear when Morgan began to conduct scientific experiments and biological research.

The clean room, filled with all sorts of sterile utensils and laboratory reagents, was much larger than anyone could have imagined, an empty and terrifyingly silent kingdom where only Morgan and her most trusted Virgo could walk and do the long research and documentation: every break could be dozens of Terra standard hours apart, and the only sound in between was the relentless aggregation of the Spider Queen, the constant rubbing of the tip of the pen against the Virgo's electronic board.

For three years, this had become commonplace in the clean room, with the Second Legion's genetic protogens spending thousands of hours on her blood family's legacy, eagerly learning everything she needed for her career, making countless lists of tasks, and forcing herself to complete them one by one.

So far, everything is going well, so the simple targets at the front are like delicate cogs, completing their historical mission and becoming part of the power of the Lord of the Second Legion, and with the power of this new knowledge, Morgan can further expand his power in the real universe, so as to plunder more resources to support her experiments.

A virtuous cycle: the Spider Empress can't help but be happy about it.

[Tell me about the recent progress of the experiment, Virgo.] 】

"Yes, sir."

"Blade of Brutality, completed."

"The overall study and in-depth analysis of Astarte's reconstructive surgery has been completed."

"Further research on [the original cast] is largely completed."

"The [Nun-type Power Armor] specially researched and designed for female mortal auxiliary army units, the prototype of the armor you wore during the First Legion period is almost complete."

"Systematic body enhancement surgery for the Mortal Auxiliaries is underway."

"Basic Technical Guidance for Think Tanks" is ongoing."

"A new generation of Stellar Handmaidens: Reserved for the Lynx who specializes in tracking and combat, and the Ophiuchus who specializes in scientific research, are underway."

"For ...... named Super Raven Guard"

The cold cardamom voice of Virgo echoed through the icy purgatory-like laboratory, presenting an eerie contrast, and Morgan squinted his eyes as he listened to the maid's report as he completed the last bit of the experiment at hand.

[Have you ever thought about why I put mortal transformation surgery in such a high position? Virgo. 】

The maid's pupils flashed a few hints of metallic color, and then she shook her head honestly.

"My memory chip doesn't store your commands for this part, my lord."

[Forced by the situation. 】

Morgan shook the test tube, staring at the rippling liquid, her blue pupils flickering with a flickering light, she didn't pay much attention to Virgo's answer, because she knew that what she was doing was actually talking to herself.

[Although I have thoroughly understood all the steps of the Astarte Modification Surgery, I still haven't figured out the reason why my Gene Seed Ratio is so low, and now I have to suspect that the real reason lies with me, and the real reason is a factor related to metaphysics and subspace: that would be too bad, it means that I can't do anything about the Legion's predicament in a short period of time. 】

[Unless I can break the technology called the primordial mother in Heydrich's memory, but it is clear that those technologies can only come from my genetic father, and even I have to admit his power in this regard: it may take me a long time to reproduce this technology, because I am missing a crucial core item.] 】

[If this is the case, all I can do is to continue to reclaim the world externally, expand the conscription area, and retain more troops internally, so as to ensure that my legion will continue the Great Expedition while maintaining a low battle loss ratio, so as to achieve a situation of slow accumulation of troops. 】

[According to my thousands of calculations, at the rate at which I am now expanding my legions, if this great expedition is to be completed in one hundred and twenty years, the Second Legion will have about thirteen to sixteen Astarte warriors, a number that should be sufficient, but it cannot withstand heavy losses: my legion will take ten times as long to heal as the other legions, or even more, and I will be absent from the entire war with only one medium damage. 】

[I can't accept this result, because it means that when the time comes, I still don't have the strength to confront my father head-on, and I don't expect to defeat him, but I've had enough of him and other things in my head.] 】

Therefore, when this great expedition is finally over, and when the real war is about to begin, I must hold on to a force capable of self-preservation: if my legion alone cannot do this, then I need to prepare more back-ups. 】

"Mortal auxiliaries?"

[Yes, they're a ready-made option, aren't they?] 】

[The cadets in the Academy of Loyalty are still a few years away from graduating, but after I send someone to rectify the elites of those conquered worlds, I still have a sizable number of mortal auxiliary troops, and it is expected that in the Far Eastern Frontier that I am about to recover, there will be at most many elite troops like this, and a considerable number of them will even be less fortunate enough to be materials for Astarte warriors. 】

[The question now is how to transform these abundant military resources into practical and powerful combat effectiveness: logistics, organization, and experience are not things to talk about, and all I can do is to determine a feasible process for selecting talents, and then shape a more affluent paramilitary society, so that these mortal soldiers have the determination and belief to fight. 】

[Otlama is a pretty good ready-made case, and on this issue, we really need to refer to the Otlama model. 】

The Lord of the Second Legion curled his lips into a mocking smile.

[If he lives in a society where heroes are worshipped, if his military status makes him highly respected, if he is treated best in the army, if behind him is his family and hometown, and beside him are the commanders who fight side by side and sufficient supplies, if he knows very well that once he dies in battle, all his family members will have no worries about food and clothing in this life, and his statue will stand in the small square of his hometown and become a new hero. 】

If all this really happens: in other words, if we convince him that he has a home country worth protecting. 】

[Then even the most cowardly mortal should fire two shots on the most terrible battlefield and resist. 】

[It's not difficult, is it?] 】

[Life is not priceless, but there are too many people in high positions who think that they can squander their lower peers for free, and are not even willing to pay the smallest reward. 】

[I'm different, for the sake of their bloodshed in the necessary moments, I don't mind being a little more generous and generous in the previous decades. 】

Virgo tilted her head and blinked her eyes.

"So, my lord, are the elites of the mortal auxiliary army the beneficiaries of this mortal transformation operation you have studied? Are you planning to create your own Solar Auxiliaries? ”

[Maybe stronger: if I can do it.] 】

Morgan snapped her fingers, and the miniature projector displayed in front of her a variety of anatomical and experimental data for her to pick out the slightest mistakes and opportunities.

[You know, even among the mortal auxiliary army, there are too many gifted and cherished talents, and it is really a waste to let them be consumed along with other big soldiers, so I have to form all kinds of elite mortal auxiliary army units. 】

[And the most elite of them, their soldiers are often those who can survive the Astarte selection, but have bad luck on the issue of genetic seeds, such characters are naturally worthy of a set of transformation operations. 】

[I took the transformation surgery of the Astarte warrior as a blueprint, deleted, deleted, and subtracted, and made necessary weakening and modifications, streamlining a set of systematic enhancements to the mortal body, that is, when we recruit the best mortals into the best mortal auxiliary army, we can strengthen and transform their bodies in a unified way. 】

[Although the result of this operation is far inferior to that of Astarte warriors, and it is likely to be inferior to semi-modified Astartes like Luthor, but for mortals, it is enough, and their strength and body will be greatly strengthened, and then form an advantage in absolute numbers. 】

[Eventually, they will become the most powerful and fanatical mortal legions, they will be the second only power in my hands after the Dawnbreaker, and they will be for me, for Avalon. 】

[Willingly acting for the tiger. 】

"You've figured it out?"

[It's pretty much done, isn't it?] 】

[When the technology is mature, I will personally perform a corresponding transformation operation on Luther, and then, I will tell him that in gratitude for his dedication and command of the mortal auxiliary army units in the past few years, this systematic transformation operation will be named:]

[Luthor's Nirvana.] 】

“…… You always seem to like to bring up Luther's things, my lord. ”

[Because he's going back, things that don't happen in a few years, don't mention it now, don't use it now, and there will be no chance in the future.] 】

Virgo blinked, and she thought of the information she had collected earlier.

"You don't seem to know much about Luther, my lord, he won't give up on the fight."

[Nope.] 】

Morgan smiled and touched his maid's little head.

[It's that you don't understand Johnson.] 】

“……”

"Understood."

"But I have one last relevant question, my lord."

[Say it.] 】

"Your plan is so grandiose, not only with a large subsidy for the Second Legion, but also with a lot of dispatch for the mortal auxiliaries, and an ambitious ship-building plan."

"But how do you plan to supplement the [hard power] needed for these plans? Where do you plan to find enough productivity to complete your reinforcement of the various armies? ”

"Both Reza and Tigrus have partnered with you, but one is too far away, the other is not too large, and it's even more difficult considering that many of your plans will have to bypass Reza."

[Straight to the heart of the question, my Virgo, you have found the point. 】

Morgan smiled, she waved her hand, and all the experimental data turned into a star map of the Far Eastern Frontier in an instant.

[Do you know how many Casting Worlds will exist on my way to the Far Eastern Frontier? 】

"I don't know, sir."

[Eight, counting Tigrus, that's nine.] 】

[Corinth, Berus, Karagat, Gulgrad, Loxar, and Galatea, Farr, and Tulle in the triple galaxy.] 】

Most of them are so weak, so weak that they don't even have their own Titan Legions, but because of this, they give me the opportunity to master them thoroughly, and when I set up the Gears Council of the Avalonian Federation, when I can centralize all their resources and productivity, their weakness doesn't matter. 】

[In any case, they are all casting worlds, and when the nine casting worlds are in my hands, all my desires will not be in the air. 】

“…… There's a problem, my lord. ”

"The Triple Galaxy is a very powerful and arrogant galaxy, and they may not be on their knees at your feet."

[It doesn't matter. 】

[The Far Eastern Frontier is mine. 】

All will surrender. 】

And some people just need some small means. 】
