A room full of wires. The lights emanating from the monitors filled in here and there brighten the room even without lights.
An empty lot where not a single person can be seen. A strange noise resounding from there, like gears turning.
In the meantime, only inorganic phone calls regularly fill the silence.
Amidst the beeping noises that had been blazing for a long time, a calm voice suddenly began to emerge.
[Signal Lost Confirm. My companionship with No. 8 ended here.]
Immediately after that, various voices erupted here and there from the other monitors.
[What? is it real No, it hasn’t even been three days since we arrived in the Balkans. Is it already broken?]
[All data transmission is lost 10 minutes after the report of encounter with lightning. In fact, there is no conclusion.]
[The simple space implementation function is a technology that cannot be used by anyone. When are you going to find a ‘suitable person’ again and put your skills into it.]
Gearside’s technologies have long since surpassed the level of external magic engineering, but there are not many cases where those technologies are fully utilized.
A group of madmen willing to accept any conditions and penalties in order to reach the technological singularity.
Technology that transcends the concept of magical engineering is transformed into a supernatural ability that is more like an imprint rather than a technology that can be used by everyone.
Versatility reduced to the limit. As a result, there comes a point where qualifications are needed rather than research to properly implement technology.
At some point, remodeling one’s entire body to acquire a skill became a daily routine.
However, even after going through the ‘modification’ stage to accept the technology, there are only a limited number of suitable people who can use it properly.
That is why, among the researchers at Gearside, only a few were given a proper ‘body’.
[It can’t be helped. There aren’t many Numberings with combat abilities like No. 8… … Even among us who remain, we must finish the plan.]
numbering. Those who are successful in receiving Gearside’s technology are given a ‘number’ in that order.
No. 8, which dealt with fastness, was one of the masterpieces completed in a fairly sophisticated way among such numbering.
It was not too difficult to assess how difficult the adversary this time was, since such a suitable person could not last even 10 minutes and was completely destroyed to such an extent that it was impossible to even transmit data.
[Could the consciousness of No. 8 be restored?]
[The accident data that was backed up on the network is almost half destroyed. If I just fix my body in this state, I’ll become an idiot?]
At the declaration of the voice that opened his mouth for the first time, the audience fell silent.
It was not difficult to understand the meaning of the words.
Except for Numberling, who was given a body, most of the Gearside researchers are only floating in consciousness in the brain space.
However, isn’t that saying that even the wanderers of the cyber world, who have escaped the shackles of reality, can’t guarantee their survival against the dog?
[You are saying that if you run into a dog, you can’t actually come back alive. This is a bit dangerous.]
[The power of the intelligence unit that was collecting data is also on the verge of collapse. In fact, no further progress can be expected.]
[The target achievement rate is currently 78%… … . It’s a pity, but it would be nice to finish collecting data at this point. Should the remaining 20% be reduced through trial and error?]
[That would be nice. Because there are plenty of samples. All it takes is time.]
Beep beep, beep beep.
A huge cavity seen under the glass window in the room.
The appearance of countless National Guard soldiers lying on hundreds of bunks placed in a common area.
A long plug cord burrows into the back of their necks, sending a huge amount of data through their spinal cords.
“Turn it off, billion… … !”
“Kreukreuk!!”
The processing speed and capacity of the human brain are unacceptable. Someone who couldn’t stand it bleeds profusely from Goku and has seizures.
The researchers whispered as they looked down at the scene through the camera installed in the cavity.
[Forced fitter adjustment experiment through combat data injection. If successful, it is not impossible to mass-produce number rings.]
[There aren’t many opportunities to experiment with this amount of superhuman power. It would have been much easier if it hadn’t happened in the North Continent.]
[The agent’s hyeongung is also vacant because such a big person has emerged. It is not inconvenient.]
These are not empty words. Because of the sudden abnormal phenomenon that occurred in the northern part of the continent, most of Gearside’s core numberings were having difficulty moving.
Several number rings, including No. 8, were summoned in a hurry, but considering the fact that they had to deal with the dog, it was a daunting task.
[In the end, it’s up to Vice Admiral Treppen’s will. Are you still watching the progress of the situation at the drying yard?]
[To think that the success or failure of this plan should be left to that indecisive old man’s decision. It’s not something I really like.]
[The Lieutenant General will also positively review it if we successfully complete the fitter adjustment experiment we are proceeding with. If you’re an elderly superman struggling at level 7, there’s no way you won’t be tempted by our proposal.]
[I hope so. Aside from that silly demeanor, Lieutenant General Treffen’s talent is genuine. If he accepts ‘adjustment’, he might really be able to reach level 8.]
At the same time as the calm voice, the camera lens watching the cavity slowly rotated.
The mana emanating from the soldiers reflected through the lens was slowly changing into something different.
[It’s artificially reached level 8… … . If we can reproduce the Ascension Gate’s epic failure with our own hands, isn’t that bad?]
* * *
After it was confirmed that Aris Richellen had joined the operation, the operation to attack the mobile fortress began to progress rapidly.
Lennok, Ilya, and Aris have reached level 7 and built their own image.
Agents with comparable organizational skills, field response team members and team leaders from each department. Finally, freelancers and mercenaries in the underworld.
The most important thing is to block the advance of the mobile fortress entering the undeveloped district and to deal with the main forces of the National Guard.
30 minutes after most of the power is sent to replenish the required power in the process.
Dozens of people who had been separately drafted followed suit in a spacious command vehicle.
Lennok and Ilya, freelancers who have reached level 6 and a handful of skilled mercenaries.
Even the figure of Aris, who climbed on top of it at the very end.
“Nice to meet you, professor. I never thought I would see your face in a place like this.”
“I’ve heard rumors that a genius resides in the Sinclair Magic Tower. I wish you well in the future.”
As soon as she climbed into the car with her golden hair brushed up with a cold face, greetings poured in from all over the place.
Being the head of the Mage Tower and holding a great position as a chair professor at the university, her participation was very reassuring just by her existence.
“thank you. I will do my best not to get in the way.”
Aris accepted the greetings one by one calmly, then glanced at Lennok and sat across from him.
“… … .”
It was a different scene where Aris, who was still greeting others, did not say a word to Lennok.
At that attitude, which was somewhere cold, other people also noticed the unusual atmosphere and kept their mouths shut.
“… … Do you know the sign?”
“You don’t look very friendly.”
“Quiet. If you don’t want to get caught up in the midst of those monsters and explode.”
Lennok thought, ignoring the muffled whispers coming from all directions.
‘Do you know? It’s not impossible.’
Aris Richellen is virtually the only opponent who knows Lennok’s real face and name and contacts him regularly.
No matter how thoroughly Lennok distinguished the identities of Ban and Lennok and built an alibi, there is a possibility that he could not hide everything from Aris.
But isn’t Aris’s response too cold for considering Ban as Lennok?
‘It’s difficult… … ‘
I never thought there could be anything more difficult than reading and destroying the other person’s mind at the last minute in a life-and-death workshop.
Aris, who was staring at Lennok’s thoughtful face, suddenly untied her arms and held out her hand.
“We met at the demonstration hall of Dyke. long time no see.”
“… … Nice to meet you.”
I once met Aris, who was visiting Dyke Corporation with undergraduates from the university for a field trip, with a class face.
At that time, I had a simple magic sparring with Aris at the suggestion of President Dyke, but it seems that Aris also remembered that day without forgetting it.
Lennok naturally greeted her, but Aris didn’t stop there, staring into Lennok’s face.
“… … .”
“… … .”
An awkward silence drifting inside the command vehicle.
Lennok, impatient, opened his mouth again.
“What business do you have with me?”
“… … no. But the last time I saw you, I thought you were working for a company on the Dyke side. I didn’t expect to see you in a place like this.”
“A lot of things happened. Aren’t they all like that in this city?”
Aris laughed at Lennok’s plain reply.
“is that so?”
“… … .”
Could it have been a mistake?
The conversation between them was not about asking anything in particular, but just saying hello to what happened in the past.
However, a lot has happened since meeting Aris for the first time with Ban’s face, and both of them have changed a lot from when they were standing in the venue.
That’s why Lennok couldn’t easily read what Aris’ answer meant.
“Why is this atmosphere like this? You didn’t even fight in that moment, did you?”
Palad, who had entered the command vehicle belatedly, looked around and tilted his head.
“I hope you will restrain yourself until you see Vice Admiral Treppen’s top. Because there are so many things to do.”
“… … .”
“Quickly get to the point. As many talented people gathered in one place prior to the fortress attack operation, there is something worth trying at least once.”
Pallad opened the operation table installed inside the vehicle and spoke.
“It’s because of that that I took you out. For more details, let’s hear directly from the congressman.”
ugh!!
A blurry mana surges above the strategy table, and Mayer’s face appears as a hologram.
[Nice to meet you. It’s been quite a while since I’ve seen your face like this.]
He looks a little emaciated from the heavy work. He slowly inspected the inside of the car with a tired expression, and greeted Aris first.
[Professor Richellen. Thank you for deciding to participate in this operation. Considering the position of a professor, it must have been a difficult decision. I will definitely repay you for your hard work for the safety of the Balkan citizens.]
“I just thought we needed to get ahead before the chaos escalated.”
Aris replied with a cold face.
“I’m fed up with the city council’s attitude of still hiding such an important situation… … . There will be nothing wrong with the people who live in this city.”
A businesslike attitude that is completely different from the lively faces I have seen in the lab.
That resolute attitude, leaving no room for a response, clearly reveals the fact that Aris did not come here with goodwill.
However, Mayer nodded obediently, not caring about that cold reply.
[That word itself proves how noble the professor’s disposition is. There must have been a cold judgment that no one other than himself would be of much help in this matter.]
“… … .”
[Relax. I swear by my parliamentary seat that I will never again use a professor’s abilities in this way. Anyway, this case is only an exception.]
Even after hearing Mayer’s words, Aris kept her mouth shut with a calm expression.
In fact, she, who has no major ties to this city, came forward directly because there was a reasonable judgment that there were very few powers that could solve this situation now that the prohibition law was not resolved.
Because she was clearly aware of that fact, Aris could not refuse the earnest request of the agent and city council member and decided to contribute to this task.
While watching her reaction, Mayer immediately changed the subject.
[There’s no time, so I’ll just check the business quickly. While you all went out to the undeveloped district where the Mobile Fortress was advancing, I managed to gather information from Cybrid Echo and secure a list of the members of the council who conspired to assassinate me in this case.]
“That is fortunate.”
The eyes of the others turned to Illya, who was looking away for a moment.
In the end, Ilya persuaded the Cybrid Eco leadership through a deal with Lennok, and handed Mayer a list of factions that demanded sabotage of the operation in exchange for their involvement in the operation.
[From now on, based on the evidence we have secured, we plan to appear at the central council and formally demand punishment for those who interfered with this agenda. So before that, I need to tell you the facts I know in advance.]
There is little room for him to be of help in the field, as he has no physical strength or special operational command skills.
Since Mayer himself is aware of it, is it a judgment that he will reduce the bad variables in this work by making a decision at the central council close to his stage and dragging other members in his mouth?
It is unknown how much the power struggle between city council members will be, but the war of nerves between politicians at the top of the megacities must be considerable.
Mayer is stepping out to tie the knot himself in the area that is difficult for Lennox to immediately guess.
While lost in thought, Mayer’s words continued.
[It’s not just abandoned ruins in undeveloped megacities.]
He met the gaze of the surroundings with calm eyes and continued to speak.
[Twenty years ago, when this city flourished without knowing the end, officials in key positions in the city have gone through a lot of trial and error. To get out of the increasingly cramped city center, to move and hide the city’s power and secrets a little more outside.]
“That means… … ?”
[Various secrets hidden in the areas designated as closed areas escaped to the undeveloped districts along with the expansion plan. Nuclear power plants, human experiment sites, landfills, military bases… … . There have been many attempts regardless of the type and type of secret, and all of them have been buried in darkness with the abolition of the expansion development plan.]
[Now, only traces remain. However, the Defense Forces Command read something different from that past.]
Understanding the meaning of the words, Lennok let out a small sigh.
“You weren’t lying about wanting permission to enter the closed area.”
[okay… … Contrary to what is left in the records, it must have succeeded in moving some of the secrets that actually existed in the Closed Zone out of the Undeveloped Zone. That must be what Commander Lieutenant General Trepen is aiming for.]
They declared war pretending to want the secrets that existed within District 13, but in fact, did Treffen know that the secrets had already been transferred outside?
It is impossible to know how many people were directly or indirectly involved in this if the Defense Force Command were aware of a fact that even Mayer, a member of the city council, had only vaguely guessed.
“You will need information about the closed area facilities that the city council was pushing to relocate at the time. Are you going to get it from now on?”
“… … .”
If you take three superhumans who have completed the hierarchy and set off separately, and according to the explanations you have heard so far, there will be only one purpose.
Palad smiled and nodded.
“I feel good. That’s what it says. From now on, we are going to rob the database where all the data of the urban expansion and development plan from 20 years ago are stored.”
“… … What did you say?”
