Chapter 22

2324 year..

Population of Klendathu reached 1x billion...

3x years after making First-Contact with Sangheili Empire..

Human population reached 29x billions with help from John's system..

Human Empire expanded borders with Sangheili by colonizing closest systems to Sangheili Empire.

Humanity's number of systems reaching 30x...\Humans colonies reached number of 400+ colonies..

Reach population is over 1x billion, all military personnel..

Terra's population is now over 3x billions, after much debate between: Emperor, Military Council and Diplomatic Council it was decided to make both Terra and Cadia a capitals of Human Empire and Humanity..

In these 3 years, relations between these two races sky-rocketed, to creating safe-trade routes..

From basic things for trade, to food and even medicine was shared between them..

While actual technology/weapon sharing is still a limit these two race's do not want to cross..

Human medicines were helpful to Sangheili Empire, seeing as they do not have such big grasp on it.. In turn they helped Humanity create new version of AI.. Thus making them independent on John's System..

Sangheili fleet ships:

Phantoms : Dropships

Spirit :Dropships

Light Cruiser : 300 meters long ships..

Ceudar-pattern heavy corvette : 1km long ships..

Destroyer-Class :1664 meters long ships..

Sangheili-Battlecruiser Class : 1787 meters long ship..

Sangheili-Assault Carrier : 5346 meters long ships

Sangheili Empire expanded itself up to 22x systems to counter up humanities border..

(They look exactly same as in the Halo games, i will in future most-likely re-arrange these classes.)

Tourism became another economic factor for both Empires, as both of them would get more informations about each other..

While current tourism is limited to only to Outer Colonies, it was still a beautiful sight for Humans and Sangheilis both to see each others culture in real life, than just videos and pictures shared..

While tourism is invited to both race's with open arms, there were needed some pre-actions to defend peoples of both race's, in this way military presence of two race's were allowed in each other Empires to "protect" tourists ...

West Sector of Human Empire gained a new military colony in case Sangheili Empire attacks, colony contains 100x millions of military personnel.. It's designated as New London..

An actual invicibility/cloaking technology was finally created by Humans..

First set was implemented in Tac-Fighters ,Spartans 1s, ODST, and some very rare Space Marines, PS Troopers...

(M1M2 will be used for normal Troopers with Morita 1 Mark 2, in future.)

Much of the research budget was getting imported into gravity technology, first idea's are gravity hammers, and gravity pulse for starships..

While gravity hammers would be used by Spartans and Space Marines, there are also other ideas for gravity weapons..

Such as gravity dagger, it acts similar to bumerang, it would return to it's owner no matter what, it could thrown into atmosphere and could be controlled by owner... It would have gravity field around it to manipulate it..

This is only current design for possible weapons, there are more, much more..

While Sangheili Empire is superior in space , but that is slowly turning into a tie as humanity is copying and creating new technology each and every day..

And Human Empire is taking , air superiority and ground superiority..

Sangheili fleet is numbering at most at 1,000x ships..

////

Different testings were done with PS Troopers, ODST and Sangheili's..

PS Troopers were worth up to 5 if not more of Sangheili soldiers, because of the rifle, armor and strength that bod inner suit and armor added..

A single ODST is more than enough to take down dozens of Sangheili soldiers, again added strength ,speed, reflex and add experiences from Human-Arachnid War, and they are One Man Armies..

While Spartans 1s seires were un-tested but they are speculated to obviously take down more Sangheili's than experienced ODST..

Space Marines or Adeptus Astartes are in their own league.. A new weapon is developed for them specifically , a Bolter very similar to Warhammer 40k but at the same time different, the design is same, while it still has A. 75 Caliber with bolts that explode and deal same damage, it has generator similar to Morita 4 to generate unlimited number of bolts but again, a problem with heat..

Opinions..

Most Humans view Sangheili as an interesting aspect and possible ally.. Humans hope for a possible peace and prosperity between these two race's..

Most Sangheili view Humanity as something interesting, they are fascinated by Human anatomy, evolution path.

While quite large part of Sangheili think of Humanity as more primitive race rather than equal . But they have quite the respect for Humanity military, as there multiple exercises and operations from both sides to determine actual status of military..

While , Sangheili and Humanity are currently allies in all but in data/paper in future it might change...

......

Spartan 2s were created... They either were pre-echanted Spartan 1s or new soldiers.. They have strength up to 30x average Humans. Better version of armors, designated as Spartan G2..

This version of armor has best shield of all Troopers even Space Marines. They carry different versions of Morita, a Morita 1, bigger rounds, bigger rifle/shotgun, magazines have up to 100x rounds...

But this series of Spartans have very low chance of success in being created, about 30% of people managed to be augmented/upgraded, 90% of Spartans from Spartans 1s survive.. Currently Spartans 1s are numbering in tens of thousands, and Spartans 2s in hundreds...

Current research of creating new super soldiers was soldified in improving Spartans 2s..

.........

Ruins.

Sangheili Empire exchanged informations about ruins they found in their territory, from small artifacts to data and buildings, there were only few actual ruins found in Sangheili space, of which one was in their home system...

They based their technology upon the "alien" ruins.. They referred to this race as Forerunners, , this race was much more advanced than Humanity and Sangheili combined..

They were surprised that Humanity developed on their own...

In these 3x years, Human Empire found ruins on Reach, ruins of the so-called Forerunner race, ruins were found deep underground , while ruins were few buildings and artifacts , they were enough to reverse-engineer , with it, humanity advanced in flying technology...

In this 3 years time-skip, Humanity did not reveal the existence of Q Bombs, it would be Humanities trump card in future, it is to be guarded in ut-most secrecy ...
