Warhammer: Starting as a Planetary Governor

Chapter 164 - 165: The Unspectacular Gene-Seed

Chapter 164: Chapter 165: The Unspectacular Gene-SeedUnder the gleaming sunlight, the Bioengineering Re

The first batch of clones, all based on Eden's genetic template, had been instrumental in stabilizing the initial gene-seeds.

Under normal conditions, a Space Marine could only produce two gene-seeds over a decade: one after five years, and another after ten.

But under the institute's controlled environment and Sacred Sun-enhanced energy, this timeline had been halved.

The clones could produce their first gene-seed in just three years and their second in six.

Moss led Eden into the storage room, where rows of living tissue chambers preserved the harvested gene-seeds.

Each biovault kept the seeds active and ready for implantation into new warriors.

The seeds, however, carried no significant traits from original Primarchs like Sanguinius or Guilliman. Instead, they were uniformly stable and entirely derived from Eden's genetic code.

"These gene-seeds lack extraordinary features," Moss admitted.

Eden, however, saw this as an advantage.

Unlike the flawed gene-seeds of other Primarchs, which often came with dangerous side effects:

Blood Angels succumbed to bloodlust and madness.

Ultramarines developed obsessive adherence to hierarchy and perfectionism.

Dark Angels were plagued by paranoia and secrecy.

Eden's gene-seeds were stable and free from debilitating traits.

"We don't need superhumans," Eden mused.

"I'll take dependable, balanced warriors over unstable berserkers any day."

With this method, Eden could mass-produce Space Marines efficiently.

"Quantity over quality," he declared. "Let the galaxy tremble before our endless legions!"

Turning to Moss, Eden gave the final order.

"Begin the implantation procedures. Let's bring our warriors to life."
