wonder if we are on a final arc already.

 

[furiant]

It'll be interesting to see what they come up with in regards to the cryogenic pods.

You'd think with the level of technology they have access to there'd be dozens of methods to repair his body.

 

[Miskatonic81]

I wonder if his wife would get in a pod at some point too, or if he's leaving her behind.

I thought they did try with everything they had access to, but it proved resistant to all treatment.

cold sleep ? Interstellar movie moment ? smell timeskip upcoming then happy ending, i think.

thank you for translating

 

[JoeyKicks]

It would rock cock if he was killed off and the rest of the story followed cleria.

Unfortunately this is just your average wish fulfillment fantasy, ain't nothing gonna happen here that elevates it above the thousands of other similar shounen manga. And that's okay too.

Edit: They could just create a clone of the MC

 

[Sylveran]

My guess is that he ends up in cryogenic sleep... but periodically awakened for short periods every few decades to assess the current situation and make necessary adjustments to keep the plan rolling forward. That or they clone him a new body somehow.

 

[RolandMayfield]

Thanks for the chapter!

Welp at least we are seeing the end of it(?), no idea how they are going to talk about him being reborn later or not.

 

[Maverun]

If that poison somehow managed to do this, I wouldn't be surprised if there is equal is cure bullshit somewhere in the world

MOAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I want a whole division of empire galactic team composed of alan's seeds!

Pulling Alan out of the story at this point makes sense, regardless of where the story is headed next there's about 0 tension left anymore in the short term. The empire is now obviously by far the strongest force on the planet and the bugs are potentially hundreds of years out so something has to fill time here. Outside of some complete switch in direction like fighting an evil god or something there's only really few ways to move forward at this point. You either kill Alan off or more likely put him in some cryopod so he can keep popping up later in the series and maybe show up in the finale and then do one of these things:

A) you end the series with some montage style view on the planets development, show how few of the characters did and how Alan's line does perhaps ending in the bugs attacking and being repelled as a sort of couple chapter send off to the series.
B) continue into the next story arcs as usual that basically follow A's story but flesh it out with several full arcs and multiple characters with time skips between major events. For instance we could have an Cleria arc here on how she handles things without Alan, then some post Cleria internal division arc where Alan's grandchildren fight it out between themselves when Cleria dies and then few more arcs in same vein with some kind of crisis that disrupts the plan (people losing faith in the bug killing mission, a civil war etc.) and how it's resolved, bit like how Foundation books go really, which then again ends when the bugs show up and get defeated. Alan can come up from the pod every now and then in this scenario, play the part of Hari Seldon dispersing wisdom and restoring faith in the mission before going back to cold sleep. If they really wanted they could invest into this whole humans turning into bugs thing too, perhaps as one of the later arcs or as the final arc post bug contact.

I could see either one happening, or really B pivoting into A as soon as the sales drop off. I suppose it ultimately depends on the series sales.
I really hope this isn't setup on Alan being the gods emissary and then fighting an evil god though but I give that solid 5% chances too.

 

[Kovin]

Freeze him and grow a clone of him to transplant all infected organs and tissue with freshly grown ones.

 

[AMicrowave]

the start of the chapter made me think this was a reupload of and old chapter, like why is it that they had her back when she was missing an arm and leg

Cloning is taboo in the star empire and he ordered Iris to never do it again back in ch17. Also, there's no evidence they can transfer consciousness even if they did.

I'm guessing the author was going for an RPG adventure type novel but went to the overpowered base camp too quickly. At that point, the only real choices were pivoting to political consolidation and kingdom building. The author had writer's block at that point, probably from not wanting to make that type of novel in the first place.

What the author probably should have done to keep the adventuring theme is drastically slow down the building of the new camp. Fetch quests in dangerous areas to gather rare materials to rebuild the technology of his world. Maybe ruins have magic artifacts that can improve their technology. And finding clues to answer the question that came up near the beginning of this story- how and why did this world develop magic?

 

[Serverclosed]

Of fucking course. I honestly was expecting for this series to end soon. The story gives for hundreds of chapters.

I mean YES, but it still feels like a cop out. They can completely regrow limbs, so they should also be able to grow new organs. Whatever he has going on SHOULD be able to be fixed. Grow him a new body, swap his brain into it. I get that with such high technology it's difficult to put the protagonist into any real, permanent danger, but it feels cheap to just say they can't fix him.

Project: King Under the Mountain

 

[Phoenix_treaty]

are they going to entomb him into a machine body like a dreadnaught
