Chapter 1001 - 46: Otherworld Coalition Forces, Incarnation of Annihilation (Double-Length)

~5 min read 880 words

"Damn..."

Even Hansen, who has participated in the Unified War, also known as the Metal War, has never seen such a scene!

Overhead, combat robots filled the sky, their artillery completely covering the sky, with burning metal rain continuously falling...

And the sky, the sky still shrouded in high temperatures, black smoke, and updrafts left by that massive explosion!

"Is this still Earth?!"

Bam!

An Ultron combat unit shot Hansen’s head, the fear of being infinitely close to death was completely displayed in Hansen’s mind!

"Ha—"

Hansen’s synthetic lungs inhaled like it was the last breath of his life, and when his body realized he wasn’t dead, it slowly turned to heavy breathing.

The HUD showed that his physical state had almost completely overloaded, nearly causing sudden death in the pod, and upon closer inspection, he wasn’t the only one experiencing this; more than half of the entire training camp was in this state, with some even having collapsed, forcing the training pods to initiate emergency CPR as medics hurriedly carried people away.

It was terrifying!

Before delivering these devices, Lille warned him that the realism was top-notch, but he didn’t take it seriously:

Whether it’s Military Technology or Arasaka, facilities used for training soldiers in bulk focus on muscle simulation, lightly simulating some emotions through brain-computer interfaces and hormone controllers...

The value of realism is hard to quantify, but by the commonly accepted calculation method, the lowest level soldiers using training chips directly in the brain, limited by prosthetics and hardware conditions, usually have realism below 30%.

Generally speaking, the realism provided by Black Superdream ranges from 30% to 50%, but Black Superdream breaks hardware safety locks to replace them with direct current stimulation for things that cannot be simulated, making the mortality rate and stimulation degree difficult to compare with military equipment.

But the bulk training cabins are already high-level equipment, with realism not exceeding 60%, beyond which is used by pilots and astronauts.

But just now...

Hansen felt that it was real!

For some reason, he was a bit angry, mixed with confusion:

"Even facing the main forces of Military Technology, it’s impossible to have so many enemies; training like this, is Burger King crazy?!"

After confusion, only anger was left: creating such a monstrous battlefield thinking it would scare him, who do they look down upon?!

Thinking of this, Hansen glanced at the V-dedicated room, and sure enough, there was no movement inside, so he decisively re-entered the pod—

...

[V: Damn, this is awesome!!!]

Boom!

Merely colliding could punch a hole in a fortress-like wall, and the force generated at the moment of impact made V feel invincible!

Indeed, V was now controlling Lille’s body!

Honestly, Ultron’s judgment was not wrong; Lille was indeed not good at combat, and in recorded battles, his performance was not strong, relying on Spiderman to stop the Lizard Man, mainly relying on equipment to stop the Vulture, and hacking techniques and equipment flexibility to penetrate the aircraft carrier!

However, being an AI has its perks: humans would never voluntarily give up control of their bodies, neither technically nor emotionally supportive, but Lille can—

At this moment, V was completely his driver!

The "Spiderman" Si Anweisitan and little octopus on V could completely convert action signals 100% and almost feel the same, while the enhanced neural response and adaptability instantly allowed her to adapt to this super body that is practically a humanoid tank!

As for Lille, he could put all his computing power into the fire control system and data knife, making his limited computing power fully capable of exceeding Ultron’s estimated combat ability—

This body does not contain one person, but two, so Ultron would obviously miscalculate!

An armored vehicle rushing into Mechanical Nest City, Hansen had just connected with mechanical soldiers when he saw Lille directly smash through the wall ahead—

Of course, he didn’t know it was Lille, but his intuition told him it was V!

The mechanical body jumped down from the fast-moving armored vehicle, Hansen sprinted and ducked behind cover, starting to shoot while cursing:

"This is what you call her training?! Giving us these things, and giving her that thing?!"

Hansen had just emptied a magazine and ducked to reload when his lack of fire made him instantly a target for Ultron combat units...

Boom!

The second unit exploded, leaving Hansen dizzy and with a pounding headache as he returned once again to Night City.

Back in reality, Hansen looked speechlessly at the training control system display, which showed that nearly everyone in Night City had been battered in and out, with many already hospitalized.

Hansen pinched the bridge of his nose, returning to the training pod in defiance, but this time, he had some different thoughts:

He had used the last two connections to adapt to the battlefield and died on the spot, but the third time he had to have a bit of professional demeanor, not just be a fool sent to die pointlessly.

An individual couldn’t survive long in that environment, but since it’s a fully immersive environment, he must find work he’s proficient at:

He would become the battlefield commander!

Although commanding those madmen of Night City is extremely difficult, perhaps the "NPCs" in those training spaces could communicate?
