I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World

Chapter 836: Chapter 501: Space-Time Topology [Requesting Monthly Tickets]_1

Harrison Clark wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn’t speak up.

He was no longer the reckless “grunt” he once was.

His personal safety was tied to too many things, every move he made could have far-reaching consequences for civilization, making true freedom hard to come by.

The Sage Institute even changed its function and dedicated most of its manpower to the newly established Sage Advisory Academy.

The main responsibilities of the Advisory Academy include two parts: the Historical Planning Department and the Contemporary Strategy Department.

The function of the Historical Planning Department is similar to the group of scholars who formulated the Five Hundred Year Plan in the previous timeline. Their main job is to learn from history and formulate a Millennium Plan.

The 500-Year Plan in the previous timeline significantly accelerated the advancement of Earth’s civilization.

When Harrison Clark first arrived, he had regretted seeing the apocalyptic environment of Earth.

At that time, he believed that the meticulous planning affected the flexibility of civilization’s development, leading to its destruction.

So, he had almost completely denied the significance of the 500-Year Plan.

But when he saw the vast Morrowind Empire, he changed his mind quietly.

The power of “Planning” was clearly displayed, undeniable by anyone.

“I was wrong. I repent.”

Harrison Clark deeply realized that when he was scheming alone, he would always face insurmountable difficulties with limited manpower.

No matter how hard he tried, his impact on history would never be satisfactory.

Harrison Clark knew he was not a born omniscient or omnipotent prophet, but reality had allowed him to never make mistakes through trial and error.

He was humble, never complacent, always willing to face his mistakes, and particularly adept at self-examination.

Even if he became a great man, he would never regard his words as the golden rule.

This humility was probably the result of his lowly and impoverished upbringing.

In short, his prophetic “Golden Finger” had always belonged to him personally, not to the entire civilization.

However, when he used the Five Hundred Year Plan to guide civilization’s progress, the true owner of the “Golden Finger” changed–it no longer belonged to him, but to the vast human civilization.

The civilization built a huge think tank around the “Golden Finger,” which increased its effectiveness countless times over.

Harrison Clark himself became part of civilization’s “Golden Finger.”

Compared to the last “Five Hundred Year Plan,” the scope of the “New Millennial Plan” was broader, targeting more macroscopic aspects of civilization’s evolution, manipulating more points, but less intricate, reducing many limitations.

For example, the content of the “Five Hundred Year Plan” focused mainly on the production and scientific research of Earth’s civilization, while the “New Millennial Plan” expanded its coverage to the entire Orion Arm.

It encompassed details like when humanity should begin the great migration to the Orion Arm, the direction of migration and the selection plan for the first group of settlers; the development route for each initial colony, and the specific equipment and experts needed for different characteristic planetary systems.

In this timeline, although the scope of the Morrowind Empire was vast, it had actually taken many twisted paths, venturing into desolate and fruitless star systems, wasting lots of time.

But with the guidance of the Millennium Plan, people in the next timeline can avoid these pitfalls, saving considerable time.

This approach was similar to Harrison Clark’s previous attempts to memorize the characteristics of planetary systems, but the Historical Planning Department executed it much more beautifully, with deeper penetration into the civilization, greater operational flexibility, easier implementation, and more profound and far-reaching impact with every step.

Wendy Brittney, the Director of the Historical Planning Department with her golden hair and blue eyes, assured Harrison Clark that as long as he successfully brings the final product back, it would enable humans in the next timeline to reach the scale of 3000 years by 2800.

The next Morrowind Empire’s territory might then span half of the Milky Way Galaxy.

Humans may even encounter the Edge Ship Fleet halfway.

However, it is still challenging to ensure that people in the next timeline will strictly follow this strategy.

The main difficulty lies in convincing people who have traveled tens, hundreds, or even thousands of light-years away from their homeworld to have unwavering trust in the plan left by their ancestors.

The difference between space and homeworld civilizations cannot be ignored.

The Planning Department presented new requirements to Harrison Clark.

According to Wendy Brittney, Harrison’s achievements in the ninth timeline were still not enough.

“Lord Sage, you have to become a real god. Only the undisputed will of a god can be carried out without compromise.”

Those were Wendy’s exact words at the time.

Harrison Clark silently pointed to the distant starship, “In an age of science, you want me to become a god?”

Wendy: “The end of science is theology, Lord Sage.”

It was apparent that Wendy Brittney was a devout believer in the religious system.

Her personal faith rested on Harrison Clark, and now she hoped to personally shape her faith in the future timeline more grandly.

Harrison didn’t argue with her, but simply replied firmly, “Just do your job well, don’t try to teach me what to do.”

Wendy was overjoyed, “Beautiful, that’s the taste of confidence!”

Harrison Clark: Hiss…

Despite his astonishment, Harrison wasn’t surprised by Wendy’s attitude; he had gradually grown accustomed to this atmosphere where everything he said was right.
