Colonia Storm Tour

Before this, she and Odin appeared underground across the Antarctic mountain range—at that time, Odin was just an artificial intelligence and had not yet acquired a physical body.

When she first appeared, the eerie green holographic projection in the command room and Odin's flat, monotonous voice startled her.

"Odin System Online, Weclome Back LastBastion Backups Subterranean Base, Final Commander."

This sentence wasn't difficult for her, a CNC player, to translate into Chinese: "Odin System online. Welcome back to the Last Fortress Backup Underground Base, the Last Commander."

For her, who was playing online with her weird best friend from the Last Fortress and teaming up with the freaks on the flanks of Colonia, not only was Odin's voice frightening her, but the fact that she had suddenly traveled through time and ended up in the Last Fortress's backup underground base and had become the final commander also startled her.

Shocked and speechless for a while, she finally came to her senses and asked Odin about this and that to confirm that it was true. Another day passed before she woke up in the commander's dormitory.

Upon discovering that the changes in his body and strength, as well as everything around him, were not a dream, he finally chose to accept the reality.

As for why Odin and she were here, even Odin, who should have known, said he didn't know. She had just woken up and discovered that the only online commander of the Burning Wind in the database was Alice in the command room.

Therefore, she was initially referred to as the final commander, which later evolved into the title "Master," referring to the commander with the highest authority.

With the thought that she could never go back to the past and that she might as well make the best of it, she abandoned her original name and changed it to Alice, accepting everything she had and trying to understand it.

Needless to say, she knew she was a 145cm A-cup loli, and was even wearing a witch-style outfit that looked somewhat alluring and erotic. But she was used to it and didn't feel anything special. She attributed it to her creepy body and, after getting used to it, she didn't pursue it any further and just accepted it.

Once she understood her body, she had to start understanding her own power. The first power she understood was not her final stronghold, the underground base, but her ability to sense the airflow brought by the ventilation fans and heating.

Then, the knowledge stored in her brain immediately made her understand something, and she almost instinctively manipulated the airflow, naturally forming a pressure sphere surrounding herself...

The move of the Apostle of the Air Pressure Ball on the flank of Colonia was something she didn't hesitate to realize for long; it was the signature feature of the Apostle of the Air Pressure Ball on the flank of Colonia.

Then she looked down and realized that her boots were completely on the air balloon, which meant that she could not only use the air balloon to gain the acceleration effect of the vortex, but also float on water.

Odin's words further confirmed that she had become the Apostle of the Air Pressure Ball, which excited her greatly. After manipulating the airflow for a while, she slowly began to understand what the Last Fortress Backup Underground Base contained.

Aside from the fact that he was the only living person there, this last fortress base was almost completely intact. What was even more astonishing was that it still retained all the Epsilon genetic technology data, as well as all the genetic facilities and all the mental technology data and some mental facilities of the Psychic Legion.

This was a godsend for her, as she had learned about the benefits of Epsilon's genetic technology data and facilities from her eccentric best friend who was clearly suited to join EP but surprisingly ended up joining the Burning Wind.

Not only will all human diseases be solved with Epsilon's gene technology, but it will also enable perfect genetic plastic surgery. This means that everything you gain through genetic plastic surgery, such as appearance and physical qualities, that can be passed on to the next generation will be reflected in your offspring, without any problems that would cause fertility difficulties. This is far superior to the technology of South Korea and Thailand.

For men, it not only extends lifespan and makes them stronger, but also allows them to create girls to their liking at any time, just like playing with a 3D custom maid, so they never have to worry about masturbating all day long.

Furthermore, when the pinnacle of Epsilon's psychic legion's research into psychic technology was combined with the pinnacle of the headquarters guards' research into genetic technology, a great achievement combining cloning and psychic technologies was born.

That is the "Phoenix Technology". The Phoenix Technology allows a person to clone two to three bodies that are exactly the same as the original except for the soul. Then, an extremely tiny psionic chip is implanted in the brain of the original body. Once the original body is determined to be dead, the psionic chip, which integrates the pinnacle of mental research technology, will immediately cause the body to spontaneously combust violently without leaving any trace. At the same time, the person's "soul" or "consciousness" will be transferred back to the prepared clone to be reborn. The clone that contains the original body's soul will also become the second original body.

Generally, the Primarch is kept in a secret, designated location, and then the soul within the Primarch is transferred to a clone that becomes the second Primarch.

If you're still confused, just learn about EVE's cloning technology. Those cloned pilots are resurrected after death using similar technology. However, Epsilon's technology differs from EVE's; EVE's technology is more materialistic. The key factor in their cloning and transplantation is a brief image of the brain at the moment of death. This image is then sent to the cloning station to activate the new clone. Therefore, the scanner responsible for recording this image must be present with the pilot at all times. The comprehensive brain scan performed at the moment of death is like taking a snapshot of the brain; it must be extremely precise, with no room for error. Such high-intensity scanning damages gray matter, causing irreversible damage to the brain. Therefore, it can only be performed when the user is about to die. Furthermore, before the use of hydrostatic escape pods, this technology was completely unreliable. Only after using and modifying Jupiter's hydrostatic pods did this technology achieve a success rate of over 99.7%. However, regardless, the brain implant and the thing behind the neck still somewhat affect the aesthetics.

Epsilon's technology is even more idealistic, requiring no scanning equipment or lying in a hydrostatic escape pod; all that's needed is to implant a psionic chip representing the pinnacle of psychic technology in the brain.

If what was said earlier is true, but here it's a bit more complicated: once the psionic chip determines that you are dead, it will immediately cause your soul to leave your body. Then, the psionic chip will immediately self-destruct in your brain, causing your body to burn up without leaving any trace. Then, your soul will be guided through a psionic technology system called "Lazarus" to be resurrected in a pre-prepared clone.

Compared to EVE cloning technology, this has one advantage and is more of a metaphysical and idealistic aspect: unless someone can directly kill your soul, methods like blocking brainwaves cannot directly prevent your resurrection.

Of course, like the former, this technology has a distance limitation. EVE's clone pilots can be reborn in facilities several light-years away after they die. However, Epsilon's technology cannot reach such a distance. The farthest distance is 1 AU, which is only one astronomical unit, that is, the current distance between the yellow dwarf Sun and the Earth in the habitable zone.

If the distance exceeds one astronomical unit, the Lazarus system will be unable to guide your lost soul, which was blasted out by the psionic chip, into the clone. It will have to drift in the subspace until your soul can be guided by the Lazarus psionic system. This difference in distance is due to the difference in the means of transmission and the matter being transmitted.

In the vast universe beyond imagination, EVE's cloning technology is the most suitable technology for humanity, while Epsilon's technology seems to offer little benefit other than being aesthetically pleasing and mysterious.

However, these were things to be discussed in the future for Alice. Having been reborn and treasuring her life, she immediately transformed herself into a phoenix and sealed her true form inside a bird egg in an underground base called the Phoenix Nest.

After Odin obtained two soulless clones based entirely on the body data she had acquired, he immediately subjected the two clones to two consecutive levels of genetic modification and enhancement.

That is a comprehensive Archer-level genetic modification enhancement. After the physical fitness is greatly enhanced, and it is confirmed that there are no problems, the Elite-level genetic modification enhancement will be carried out immediately.

Compared to the Archer-level genetic modification enhancement, which significantly improves physical attributes, the Elite-level genetic modification enhancement has a less noticeable effect on improving physical attributes, but it greatly enhances mental strength.

Ultimately, both levels of genetic enhancement experiments were successful on the clones, so she was relieved to keep her original body in the bird egg and then slept in the psionic facility for a month.

Compared to the convenient and quick EVE cloning technology, the psionic facilities in Epsilon's Phoenix technology require more time to "extract" a person's soul for the first time, and the soul needs to be transferred out intact.

Furthermore, based on the soul information, a clone and the original must be created with unique soul imprints for the Lazarus psionic system to identify and implant a psionic chip with the corresponding soul imprint, along with other complex procedures.

During this time, she learned from Odin that the base was located underground and that no exit road had been developed to the surface. So before she fell into a deep sleep, she asked Odin to develop a road from the underground base to the surface.

This decision led to a huge misunderstanding, and Alice lost the opportunity to contact her eccentric best friend, who was still working alone in 4V.

After being trapped in the phoenix egg for more than a month, she awoke from her clone, dressed herself, and adapted to her new body.

The battle in Tibet has ended, and the death contest between Lin Haiyuan and Artemisia in 4V Keelung has also come to a conclusion. Lin Haiyuan suffered fatal injuries, and Artemisia fell into a coma due to Lin Haiyuan's mental power. The DEM warship, which was stopped by time, crashed into the sea forever, and the remaining magician troops were all captured.

The underground tunnels dug by multiple troop carriers controlled by Odin extended to the surface, and the explosive trenches built by nano-drones for snow melting and de-icing emerged from underground. By the time the cheers on the surface came, it was already the day after the end of the Tibet campaign.

“Odin, where are we now? Does this look like the North Pole or the South Pole? Are we in the Arctic Circle part of Alaska?”

Alice asked Odin beside her, but even after being fed a lot of knowledge by the memory recorder, she still couldn't analyze her position from the scene in front of her because it was too monotonous.

"I don't know, because I haven't connected with the GLONASS satellite system yet. The relevant equipment is almost ready for export."

As Odin said this, a four-tracked vehicle that looked like a tank or armored vehicle without a turret drove out of the open tunnel hatch.

Driven by the powerful Tesla engine, the four tracks rolled over snow and ice, and after reaching a certain location, the unmanned vehicle raised the placed detection antenna and then lowered four supports to secure it to the ground.

As the unique ringing sound of the mobile acoustic wave detector's electronic equipment rang, electromagnetic waves invisible to the naked eye were emitted from the top of the antenna.

"Based on our initial assumptions, we should have arrived in a strange world. Although it's still Earth, this Earth should be very different from the Earth I know..."

Odin looked around and, like Alice, could only see ice and snow, the blazing sun, and the azure sky; he couldn't see anything else.

"Yes, there are neither Allied troops rushing forward nor Soviet troops galloping across the snowfields, nor Epsilon troops defending their year-round frozen strongholds. This is not the MO world."

Alice gazed into the distance, her dark purple eyes gleaming with an inexplicable light, as if she were looking towards the future—in fact, she was using her mental powers to temporarily transform herself into a clairvoyant observer of everything around her.

There was nothing but ice, snow, and sunshine...

At this moment, the specially modified mobile acoustic detector reacted.

"The mobile acoustic detector has successfully connected with the GLONASS satellite system!? Awaiting verification..."

Odin made a very unexpected sound.

"What? It's connected to the GLONASS satellite system?! Wasn't the GLONASS satellite system supposed to be non-existent? How did it connect?"

Alice stared in astonishment at Odin, who was completely dumbfounded.

"To be precise, this world, which isn't where I was originally born, shouldn't have the GLONASS satellite system, but I did connect to the GLONASS satellite system and even had a verification process that I was very familiar with..."

After Odin finished speaking, he immediately began to verify the information through the invisible GLONASS satellite system in orbit.

Odin was originally the shipborne AI of the Paradox Engine. Later, when the Colonia Flank was established and transformed into the Colonia Flank Air Base, the WalkerNet AI took over the Colonia Flank Air Base, while Odin was put into a dormant state and transferred to a backup underground base for preservation. This is why Alice woke up to find Odin instead of the WalkerNet AI.

Coming to her senses, Alice racked her brains and thought, "Could it be that other factions of the Burning Wind faction also came to this world with me?!"

"Based on the current situation, it is highly likely... Verification complete. Welcome to connect to the GLONASS satellite system to inquire when the satellite system was established and when it officially began operation."

“本卫星系统本卫星系统重建于2014年1月1日9点45分30秒，正式运作时间2014年1月1日9点46分01秒。”

"Who are the entities and sub-factions that approved the rebuilding of the GLONASS satellite system? From where will the satellites be launched?"

"Supreme Commander Lin Haiyuan, Sub-camp is the flank of Colonia, launched from the Colonia flank air base."

The entire question-and-answer process was conducted by Odin himself, which made it appear to an uninformed person as if he were asking and answering his own questions.

"Lin the Madman?!"

With an incredulous expression, Alice revealed the nickname that everyone who knew the person in question would instinctively use upon hearing that name.

"Unbelievable! The Colonia flank air base has also come to this world, and there's even a supreme commander with the same authority as Alice named Lin Haiyuan... Lin the Madman, Master?"

In the end, Odin consciously reverted to the honorifics that were logically necessary.

"Lin Haiyuan, that name is definitely right! It's absolutely Lin the Madman!"

Alice is 100% certain that Lin Haiyuan, the supreme commander of the Colonia flank, is his eccentric best friend, Lin the Madman or Lin the Madman.

"Master, there is no information about him in my database."

Odin reminded her that there was no data on a commander named Lin Haiyuan in the database.

"Now we just need to verify the communication and we'll understand. Odin, go and contact Colonia's flank air base!"

Alice couldn't wait to contact her friend and give him a big surprise.

"Yes, Master."

After receiving the order, Odin immediately contacted Colonia's flank air base.

"AI identification code ODIN, base identification code FLBSBB0009, requesting contact with Walknet AI, AI identification code VOLKNET, formerly Paradox Engine identification code ALIEAPE, now Colonia Flanking Air Base identification code FWOCMAB, requesting... Verification password passed, contact successful."

After Odin finished speaking, Walker.com's AI voice immediately came through the earpiece she was wearing on her right side.

"Welcome to VOLKNET, this is WalkerNet AI, the original Paradox Engine's onboard AI Odin. Your appearance truly surprises me."

To be honest, I didn't hear any surprise in the deep male voice of Walker.com's AI.

"Walker.com AI, I'm also surprised by your appearance. What exactly is going on?"

Odin was also completely baffled.

"This question cannot be answered in a few words. The data to answer this question is currently being transmitted to the database of the FLBSBB0009 base via the mobile acoustic detector."

Walker.com's AI directly transmits data to Odin via the GLONASS satellite system.

"Receiving and reviewing..."

Oudin replied.

"I have the same question as you. Please upload your answer data."

Walker.com AI requested.

"Okay, the data is being uploaded..."

Odin also transmitted the answer data to the relevant questions to the GLONASS satellite system via a mobile acoustic detector, and then relayed it to the air base on the flank of Colonia.

“Let’s go back to the command room first, Master Alice, so that you can better understand the situation of Commander Lin Haiyuan and Colonia’s flank.”

The reason she said this was to give Alice a more intuitive understanding of the situation, and that required a sufficient number of holographic projections.

"Ah."

Alice walked towards the open hatch and returned to the underground, while Odin followed her in.

At this moment, two unmanned four-wheeled vehicles with rotating illusion cores on their heads swayed and passed Odin and Alice one after the other—these unmanned four-wheeled vehicles with illusion cores are called Mist Motor Vehicles.

The only situation where you can use a vehicle that functions like a Mirage Core is when you can't build a Mirage Core or want to deploy a Mirage Field to a remote location to hide and ambush troops.

In the game, two fog vehicles cannot become invisible to each other after deployment, but that's for game balance. Now, Alice and Odin, equipped with Epsilon Headquarters Guard equipment, don't have that problem at all.
