“Have you seen this?” Vortison asked as he barged into Brad’s office, holding up a data pad.
“If that’s the overview Radonon provided, yes, I’ve skimmed through it,” the trailblazer said casually. “Was there something significant that I missed?”
“What’s not significant?” the medtech said, pulling up a chair and sliding a chip into Brad’s desk so they could get a fuller view with a meter high hologram popping up in between them as the nighttime cityscape was splayed out behind Brad through the wide window. “First off the length.”
“I only looked through the summary,” Brad admitted. “Too long?”
“He practically wrote a book detailing lizard genetics…and one that the V’kit’no’sat could learn from. A lot of this is over my head, but I’ve learned more in the past 9 hours about their coding than I have in the past 9 centuries.”
Brad raised an eyebrow. “Useful then?”
“As in developing a superweapon against them, no, but in understanding their coding. The genetic stranglehold on their individuality is plain as day to me now. Unfortunately there’s nothing we can do about it once they’re developed…short of cutting out chunks of their brain, programming wise, which Radonon spelled out how to do. We technically have a way to free them from it, but at a loss of a significant portion of their knowledge and abilities. They’d still be functional, not a vegetable, but I don’t see how that’s of any use to us. My point is I can see it now, and I can vouch for the Chixzon’s biotech superiority. They are far more dangerous than I had given them credit for.”
“Did he give us anything practical to use?”
Vortison frowned. “You still don’t get it. He gave us everything about them. They’re an open book now, granted a very complex one.”
“But can we use any of that knowledge in the short term?”
The geneticist sighed. “Militarily…I don’t know, but as far as advancing our understanding of genetics he just gave us a very valuable addition to our database that we will be learning from for centuries to come. It may not help you when you invade their core worlds, or maybe it will. There isn’t a weapon I can give you now, but when you want to do something in the future, something specific, well, let’s just say we have a lot more options now.”
“He also outlined the bioweapon,” Brad added.
“Actually,” Vortison said as he reached across the desk to the trailblazer’s side and sifted through the holographic menu until he found a specific list, “he created, or perhaps recreated, 7 different bioweapons that could be used against them, one of which would render them in a coma-like state.”
“I didn’t see that.”
“We can’t use it…or at least I didn’t think you’d want to. If we didn’t recover those infected they’d starve to death while asleep. You said something a long time ago about what constitutes an ‘honorable’ death, and I’m pretty sure that doesn’t apply.”
“No, you’re right,” Brad agreed. “If we have to kill them it’ll be in battle.
