Interdimensional science and technology starting from cyberpunk

The Atlas Group had launched brain-computer interface devices as early as four years ago. These implanted devices were first promoted among disabled people, with few normal people receiving implants.

It wasn't until more skill chips were developed, better exoskeletons and other technologies requiring brain-computer interfaces became a reality, and more useful medical technologies emerged that people began to implant brain-computer interfaces.

Although Leer has been actively trying to get countries to incorporate such devices into social security systems, the idea of implanting an incomprehensible gadget into one's body, especially one that directly accesses the brain, makes everyone think twice.

This has resulted in the number of people with brain-computer interfaces in Europe being far smaller than expected, despite its large population.

Of course, this is only relative to Europe's large population base.

And his workload during this period was enormous, so much so that even rogue AIs rarely wanted to do it—

Large data volume, large operation volume, and large network coverage area mean that the more distortion occurs during information transmission, the more likely it is to trigger systemic problems.

Moreover, he had to maintain human emotions that contradicted this vast rational calculation.

Sixteen hours had passed. Millions of workers entered factories, and millions of soldiers across Europe completed screening and reorganization. Countless legal amendment orders were issued. The continent hadn't operated so busily since World War II.

But this also brought new problems.

After the break, Leer opened the tactical map:

He couldn't engage in a brute-force build-up of troops against Ultron. Taking such measures against an enemy with a tendency for destruction would be suicidal, especially since the enemy was a pure AI.

The problem now was that Europe was indeed united, but Latvia's standing army and engineering teams had to stay in Europe to continue accelerating this process. The military machines and weapons produced were endless, but the manpower for offense was insufficient.

He had to face the entire Middle East plus the North African region. The Iron Riders were indeed powerful, but they could only be considered special forces. To gain a decisive advantage, a large number of combat personnel and war machines were needed.

The forces Leer could muster were difficult to cover the entire combat area, but Ultron might be able to, having occupied that territory for who knows how long.

So, there was only one method left:

A raid on Ultron's central hub.

Ultron's most prominent characteristic was also its greatest weakness: it was an AI with an excessive ego. This meant it was difficult for it to handle distributed problems like the Illuminati AI, naturally making it inferior in the construction of distributed factories and networks—

This meant that destroying its core area would inflict enough damage to allow the EU's production capacity to exceed its industrial capacity at some point, and during this time, completely crush those robots with overwhelming force.

At this moment, in cyberspace, Leer faced the entire European Parliament:

Although it was no longer 720 representatives, it was still the same European Parliament. This European Parliament was holding its breath, waiting for Leer's next instruction.

All the members of parliament and national leaders in attendance felt that the world was changing so quickly. Initially, Leer was an excellent entrepreneur, and they wanted to introduce some policies to the Atlas Group.

Later, Leer was a fugitive, which the European Parliament found troublesome. Then, he became the leader of a resistance army in a remote small country, and the European Parliament collectively decided to use his country as a strategic buffer and extract benefits.

But later, things began to get out of control. They found that they couldn't live without Leer, without his technology, without his protection, and even more without his decisions, his every word and action...

Until now, if Leer had a breath, they would do everything to hear every breath Leer took—

This is law.

[Leer: We will adopt a carpet bombing approach, sweeping from the Middle East all the way to the North African region, clearing and occupying every place where Ultron might be.]

Everyone gasped:

Perhaps politicians didn't understand what this concept meant, but military officers immediately understood.

The width of the battle line that Leer had planned for them was at least 3000 to 5000 kilometers, and could eventually far exceed the most tragic battles of World War II!

Honestly, their thinking was still somewhat misaligned: whether it was the American split or the Ultron robots, they only felt it was an unprecedented crisis.

But when the detailed battle plan was in front of them, they realized that this was already a super-large-scale battle that would only occur in a world war!

However, in Leer's estimation, once all the production technologies were implemented, such a large-scale battle would end in one to two months—

This was too fast!

Such complex terrain, such a wide front...

Perhaps modern warfare can really be fought on this scale.

But soon they realized one thing: this actually depended heavily on the overall industrial capacity of society.

Could they beat the robots?

The answer was that Leer really didn't have any hope for this, so they had to fight for it.

[Leer: I don't know Ultron's production capacity, but it's likely stronger than ours.]

[Leer: Our only chance is one: a raid. The King's Seat will launch a raid 6 hours after resupply, targeting this location—]

[Leer: My reconnaissance Iron Riders have observed giant factory facilities here. Based on my judgment, Ultron's central hub is here.]

[Leer: We need a round of precise and rapid raids to gain a leading position. Once the raid is successful, we can create a gap in production capacity with Ultron.]

[Leer: This little bit of gap will allow us to continuously expand our gains on the front lines. Ultron's industrial capacity will therefore be difficult to recover, and we will thrive, eventually eliminating all carriers that may contain its data.]

[Leer: In general, this is a race, and we must win.]

This was a world war-level strategic advance, a global-level war conflict.

A strange idea arose in the hearts of the parliamentarians: as Leer took over the whole of Europe, the industrial capacity improvement brought about by a series of high technologies such as information technology, cyber technology, biotechnology, etc., was like an industrial revolution.

But whether this was a real industrial revolution would be tested by a product that truly belonged to the next era—

The fact was that it was really difficult for humans to outrun Ultron, difficult to outrun that machine that was single-mindedly bent on destruction, without emotion, extremely rational, extremely cruel, and would never argue or be tripped up by emotions.

But their bravest man would take the lead in launching an attack, delivering a fatal blow to Ultron in this darkest moment, and plunging it into the abyss before it devoured the entire world.

But there was still a problem.

[Speaker Schulz: I want to know... If our raid is successful, but Ultron's industrial capacity is still above us?]

Leer didn't have detailed data on Ultron, so the European Parliament couldn't see these comparisons, only knowing the core ideas of the entire strategy.

In response, Leer's answer was cold, like the temperature of reality:

[Leer: Then we will lose.]

Before the dust settles, no one can be sure that doing something will definitely lead to victory.

Just as humans, even with absolute courage, unwavering will, and brilliant minds, cannot transcend the laws of physics.

Faced with reality, people only felt a bitterness in their mouths.
