Chapter 1028 - 70: The All-Out Assault Begins (Double-Length) (Part 2)
"I said, stop fantasizing..."
[Lille: As per available intelligence, Crystal Palace will be heavily guarded -- maybe not numerous, but certainly elite soldiers.]
[Lille: We all know that two Moon Colonies are controlled by High Knights who rebelled decades ago; Europeans have fought them in the skies and have more extensive experience.]
[Lille: Some of you might wonder: Can we ally with the High Knights, since they are rebels too?]
[Lille: The answer is, don’t fantasies; the High Knights’ economic lifeline is controlled by the European Union. Over the years, they’ve become more like a "province" of the European Space Agency with significant autonomy on the Moon.]
[Lille: However, if we win, they might lean towards us... but before winning the war, they remain potential adversaries, so regard them as such in the meantime.]
Brick had a sudden thought: "High Knights? Aren’t they basically space gangsters?"
The leaders of Night City’s major gangs crowded into a room.
Brick from the Vortex Gang, along with Jostar and his mom; Sergeant from the Six Street Gang; Gustavo from Valentino; Su Xi from the Mox Gang; Maekawa Takeshi from Tiger Claw Gang; Wild Man King from Animal Gang...
As soon as this was spoken, everyone turned their heads: The thick-skulled Brick from the Vortex Gang seemed to have made a valid point!
Among them, Gustavo from Valentino was a new face—Valentino doesn’t have a meaningful leader, only a few gang heads of roughly equal power.
The other leaders were either restless in the past two years, or lacked the guts or capability to join this operation...
Only him.
"...Space gangsters... after this gig, who dares challenge me for leader?"
The sergeant laughed upon seeing Gustavo like this: "Haha! You little bastard, if you come back alive, even a mayor’s position won’t be out of the question for you!"
Maekawa’s gaze sharpened: "You’ve said too much. That’s not your decision to make."
"Uh..."
[Lille: Once we get what we want in Crystal Palace, we’ll immediately head to the Tycho Colony on the Moon—if you’re still alive.]
[Lille: Explosion is always the first choice, so if you only achieve a Pyrrhic victory, you might bury yourself in space along with the world’s most luxurious base.]
The Wanderer led by Pan’an and Sol, Sol adjusting equipment while muttering: "I said you shouldn’t have come..."
"Get over it, old man. It’s not your era anymore; we’re all newbies in this space raiding business."
"I mean, Adkaduo needs you." Sol seriously looked at Pan’an, "If..."
"If everyone in this mission dies, Adkaduo will also perish; if someone survives... Lille will definitely be one of them. He lives, and you’re worried about the clan?"
Pan’an shrugged indifferently: "As long as we win this battle, Adkaduo will start anew on the revived lands, guided by the sun, wind, and rain, just like in the books."
Sol paused, chuckled, continuing his tasks: "I’m actually being lectured by you; you’ve somewhat scared me of dying."
"You’ve always been scared of dying, strong as a bull, cowardly as a fox; you should’ve been interrogated long ago..."
Sol didn’t argue, knowing he wasn’t scared of dying; he was worried about his people not surviving.
But... Pan’an indeed made him fear death for a fleeting moment:
Adkaduo is one of the few groups still using books to transmit knowledge and educate people in this world; of course, he had heard the stories of those once-existed worlds.
Who doesn’t want to live to see victory?
"I’m not afraid of dying, you’ll see."
[Lille: For those remaining, we need to charge towards the Tycho Colony on the Moon, completely dismantling the European Space Agency’s rule.]
[Lille: If possible, feed them their own manufactured stones.]
[Lille: Your combat skills are somewhat pitiful, rocket production requires time, and in this final stage, everyone must meet the virtual training standards.]
[Lille: Those who don’t meet the standards go back to the basement and obediently tighten screws.]
Those chosen weren’t cowards; even in training, they would risk their lives adapting to their new Prosthetics, preparing for the final battle.
[Lille: Training ready.]
Bang—
The entire underground city shook violently again.
...
Marvel World, Africa.
[Illuminati: What kind of training technology is this? Their state is too... realistic, not to mention those strange autonomous robots displaying abnormal intelligence.]
[Illuminati: What are you concealing? A world?]
The final accomplishment of the European Union was perfected by Lille and Munemasa:
Utilizing technologies from cell cultivation, cloning, cybernetic enhancements, quantum computing, and so forth, combined with European Union and Fei Meng’s technology, Atlas Group recreated synthetic human technology.
Based on each participant’s cells for the final battle, Lille cloned synthetic human Prosthetics belonging to them here—
Perhaps he couldn’t shape a human using biotechnology like a creator or simulate human senses purely with mechanics for 100% lifelike control, but the combination of the two was absolute realism.
Clone cells continuously formed in molecular-level weaving technology, this advanced bioprinter printed human-lizard muscle cells and organs, assembling limbs and drive units with organic macromolecules, interconnected mechanical Prosthetics sketching a complete human figure...
The ark reactor flickered, sensing information flows crossing indescribable dimensional distances to reach another world.
This was the final piece of the cross-dimensional production technology puzzle, or rather, now the cross-dimensional was not only production machines and equipment but also true human consciousness.
[Developed Technology: Cross-dimensional Hybrid]
[Description: Synchronize all technologies between two worlds, simultaneously transform and produce two bodies, obtaining matching bodies in different worlds, consciousness spanning time and space.]
[After years of effort, the two worlds that have always supported each other no longer limit themselves to manufacturing rigid mechanical bodies but have sensed another world in the perceptual sense.]
[Reward Technology Points: 20000]
[Current Technology Points: 50000]
Zhuya City, the headquarters of Atlas Group, the latest synthetic human woke up in the pod—
Lille watched all this, seeing the system window only he could see.
Previously, he spent some technology points transferring nuclear fuel, and now he transferred some of the Night City warrior’s biological tissues for cloning their cells, along with the newly rewarded 20000 points to round up the balance.
Meanwhile, he was assessing the scale of cross-dimensional production:
[Current Cross-dimensional Production Scale: Third Level]
[Cyberpunk World connected life forms: 2.3 million]
[Marvel World connected life forms: 4.4 million]
[Acquired new ability: Energy required for production can be directly replicated between cross-dimensional production lines, reducing macro production energy consumption by 1%]
[Acquired new ability: Energy can be directly distributed between two worlds.]
[Acquired new ability: Two worlds are closely linked; material transmission costs are 80% of the normal required points.]
[Acquired new ability: Your individual energy loss will be reduced by 20%.]
[Quantum Resonance Ability has been enhanced, now directly reflected in lowering defect rates.]
[Current joint production energy consumption reduction: 20%]
[Current defect rate reduction: 67%]
[Material transmission cost Technology Points: 80%]
[Note: After rounds of battles and collaborations, both worlds formed massive production teams for coordination, the unity of will in the real world transforming into tangible excellence.]
[Only one step away, maybe even the production materials will be materialized in another world.]
[No time left, act now.]
Before Lille, V and Jack opened their eyes.
On the horizon, the sun rose, countless transport planes taking off from military bases, ships departing for distant lands—
This was both training and real battle, Lille would capture the United States, simultaneously connect to Atlas Group in the U.S., elevate cross-dimensional production to the fourth level, boost production speed to the limit, before the European Union’s orbital bombardment crushed Night City, before Rocksen Group blew up Earth, dismantle them simultaneously.
Two worlds, launching full-scale assault on oppressors of the same nature.
