Whether you know it or not (1)

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 anti, only inorganic phone calls regularly fill the silence.
Amidst the beeps that had been blazing for a long ti, a calm voice suddenly began to erge.
[Signal Lost Confirm. That was the end of my companionship with No. 8.]
Imdiately after that, various voices erupted from other monitors.
[What? is it real No, it hasn’t even been three days since we arrived in the Balkans. Has it already broken down?]
[All data transmission is lost 10 minutes after the report of the encounter with the lightning. In fact, it’s as if a conclusion has been reached.]
[The simple space implentation function is a technology that cannot be used by anyone. When will you find a ‘suitable person’ again and insert the technology?]
The technologies possessed by Gearside 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 madn willing to accept any conditions and penalties in order to reach the technological singularity.
Technology that transcends the concept of magical engineering is transford 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 cos a point where qualifications are needed rather than research to properly implent technology.
At so point, remodeling one’s entire body to acquire a skill beca a daily routine.
However, there are a limited number of suitable people who can use the technology properly even after going through the ‘modification’ stage to accept the technology.
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 the remaining of us have to 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 those numberings.
It was not too difficult to assess how difficult the adversary this ti was, since such a suitable person could not last even 10 minutes and was completely destroyed to the extent that data transmission was impossible.
[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 beco an idiot?]
The audience fell silent at the declaration of the first voice.
It was not difficult to understand the aning 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 bondage of reality cannot guarantee their survival against the dog?
[You are saying that if you run into a dog, you can’t actually co back alive. This is a bit dangerous.]
[The spy force that was collecting data is also on the verge of destruction. In fact, you can’t expect any more progress than this.]
[The target achievent 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 ti.]
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 dug into the back of their necks and hamred a huge amount of data through their spinal cords.
“Billion… … !”
“Kreukreuk!!”
The processing speed and capacity of the human brain are unacceptable. Soone who couldn’t stand it bleeds profusely from Goku and has seizures.
The researchers whispered as they looked down at the scene through the cara installed in the cavity.
[Forced fitter adjustnt experint through combat data injection. If successful, mass production of number rings is not impossible.]
[There aren’t many opportunities to experint with superhuman powers of this size. It would have been much easier if things hadn’t happened in the North Continent.]
[The agent’s Hyeongung is also vacant because a big man like that has erged. It’s not inconvenient.]
These are not empty words. Most of the key numberings in Gearside were having difficulty moving due to the sudden abnormal phenonon that occurred in the northern part of the continent.
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 the decisions of that indecisive old man. I don’t really like it.]
[If we successfully complete the fitter adjustnt experint, the lieutenant general will also consider it positively. There is no way that an elderly superman who is struggling at level 7 would not be tempted by our proposal.]
[I hope so. Aside from that foolish deanor, Lieutenant General Treffen’s talent is genuine. If you accept ‘adjustnt’, you might really be able to reach level 8.]
At the sa ti as the calm voice, the cara lens watching the cavity slowly rotated.
The mana emanating from the soldiers reflected through the lens was slowly becoming heterogeneous.
[It’s artificially reached level 8… … . Is
n’t it bad if we can reproduce the Ascension Gate’s epic failure with our own hands
?
Lennok and Ilya Aris, who reached level 7 and built their own images.
Agents with comparable organizational skills, field response team mbers and team leaders from each departnt. Finally, freelance rcenaries from the underworld.
The most important thing is to block the advance of the mobile fortress entering the undeveloped district and deal with the main force of the National Guard.
30 minutes after most of the power is first sent to replenish the power needed in the process.
Dozens of people who had been separately drafted followed suit in a spacious command vehicle.
Lennok and Illya Freelancers who have reached level 6 or a few skilled rcenaries.
Even the figure of Aris, who climbed on top of it at the very end.
“Nice to et you, Professor. I never thought I would see your face in a place like this.”
“I heard rumors that a genius resides in the Sinclair 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 Magic 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.
“… … .”
Aris, who was still greeting others, did not say a word to Lennok.
Sowhere cold, the other people 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 na 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 mont 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 t at the demonstration hall of Dyke. long ti no see.”
“… … Nice to et you.”
There was one ti when I t Aris, who was visiting Dyke Corporation with undergraduates from the university for a field trip, with Ban’s face.
At that ti, at the suggestion of President Dyke, I had a simple magic sparring with Aris, but it seems that Aris also rembered that day without forgetting it.
Lennok greeted her casually, 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 ?”
“… … no. But the last ti 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, since eting Aris for the first ti with the face of Ban, so many things have happened, 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 ant.
“Why is this atmosphere like this? You didn’t even fight in that mont, 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. There is sothing worth trying at least once, as these talented people gathered in one place before the strategy to attack the fortress.”
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 et you. It’s been quite a while since I’ve seen his face like this.]
He seed to be sowhat emaciated from the heavy work that followed. While slowly examining the inside of the car with a tired expression, he 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.]
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 that leaves no room for a response clearly reveals the fact that Aris did not co 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 judgnt that no one other than himself would be of much help in this matter.]
“… … .”
[Relax. I swear by my parliantary seat that I will never again use a professor’s abilities in this way. After all, this ti is just 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, ca forward directly because there was a reasonable judgnt 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 mber and decided to contribute to this task.
While watching her reaction, Mayer imdiately changed the subject.
[There’s no ti, so I’ll just check the business quickly. While you guys went out to the undeveloped area where the Mobile Fortress is advancing, I managed to gather information from the Cybrid Echo and get a list of the mbers of the council who conspired to assassinate in this case.] “That’s fortunate.
”
The eyes of the others turned to Illya, who was looking away for a mont.
In the end, Ilya persuaded the Cybrid Echo leadership through a deal with Lennok and handed over to Mayer the list of factions that demanded sabotage of the operation in exchange for their involvent in the operation.
[From now on, based on the evidence we have secured, we plan to appear at the Central Council and formally urge the punishnt of the lawmakers 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 judgnt 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 mbers in his mouth?
It is not known how much the power struggle between city council mbers will be, but the war of nerves between politicians at the top of the gacities must be considerable.
Mayer is stepping out to tie the knot himself in the area that is difficult for Lennox to imdiately guess.
While lost in thought, Mayer’s words continued.
[It’s not just abandoned ruins in the undeveloped districts of gacities.]
He continued to say, making eye contact with his surroundings with calm eyes.
[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. In order to move and hide the power and secrets of the city more outside the increasingly cramped city center.]
“That ans… … ?”
[Various secrets hidden in the areas designated as closed areas have escaped to various parts of the undeveloped district along with the expansion plan. Nuclear power plant Human body test site Landfill site Military base… … . Many attempts have been made regardless of the type and type of secret, and all of them were buried in darkness with the abolition of the expansion and developnt plan.] [
Now, only traces remain in place. However, the National Guard Command read sothing different from that past.]
Understanding the aning of those 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 so of the secrets that actually existed in the closed area out of the undeveloped area. That must be what Commander Lieutenant General Treffen is aiming for.] They
declared war pretending to want the secrets that exist in District 13, but in fact Treffen also knew 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 mber 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 ti. Are you going to get it from now on?”
“… … .”
If you took three superhumans who had completed the hierarchy and went off on their own, and according to the explanations you’ve heard so far, wouldn’t that have only one purpose?
Palad smiled and nodded.
“I feel good. It’s true. From now on, we’re going to rob the database where all the data on the urban expansion and developnt plan from 20 years ago are stored.”
“… … What did you say?”
