Enforcer's Handbook

For Falena, there is nothing like becoming a member of a swarm to understand the process of being "infected" more intuitively.

This was completely different from what she had imagined.

She originally thought that her consciousness would fall into chaos, or disappear completely, becoming a walking corpse controlled by her mother. However, after the assimilation process was completed, she found that her memory and consciousness had not been eroded, and she still had the ability to think independently. Ability, the only difference is that a device similar to a communicator appears in her head.

She can hear the voices coming from her mother and between different individuals.

At this moment, the voice in her head was calling her to return to her mother's side.

This aroused Falena's curiosity. As a researcher, she was also eager to see the true face of her mother.

…

"The Shadow Guard has grown stronger again."

After Falena and the humanoid weapons from Uni-President Technology left, Song Lan spoke.

The number of members has increased from the original two to more than a dozen, and each of these team members has a specialty, which is the advanced unit he mentioned before.

With greater combat capabilities and healing capabilities than special operations teams, law enforcement agencies can solve situations that are different from ordinary crime situations.

But the more important harvest is the humanoid weapon with unified technology.

Since the Abandoned Bones' chip is equipped with the Union Government's positioning system, they will not be able to study it even if it contains many secret technologies of the Union Government until this problem is solved. However, the emergence of humanoid weapons has brought new opportunities to their research. direction.

Overload the system.

A simple time acceleration system, which is tantamount to a dimensionality reduction strike for most enemies.

The dynamic vision of ordinary humans is simply not enough to capture people who have activated the overload system, and the addition of Falena allows them to master the secrets of this technology faster.

The two did not go home immediately, but went to the garbage dump and attended the orientation party.

While welcoming Falena to join, it is also to celebrate the official establishment of the Shadow Guard. With a dozen people, an organization has begun to take shape.

These former cyber lunatics came from all walks of life in District 17. When there was no mission, Lu Xiang allowed these people to temporarily return to their own lives.

After the orientation meeting, there was a seminar on the overload system. Under the auspices of Medel, the four research giants formed by Dr. Bai Zhu, Falena and Gefu participated in the discussion.

Lu Xiang, as the leader of the insect swarm, listened in.

"The adaptability of the overload system is extremely demanding. Even in the company, there are very few experimental subjects that can adapt to this technology. It not only requires a dedicated operating system to make real-time judgments during the overload process, but also whether the human body can withstand the overload system. The load that comes with it is also key.”

As the top manager of the branch in District 17, few people know this project better than Falena. “In addition to the adaptability of the operating system, users of the overload system must also replace the spine, vital organs, and neurofeedback devices. , and circulatory system, the estimated transformation value of the complete project is 46.7%.”

Those who can transform the prosthetic body to more than 40% already belong to the category of three-star rescuers. This value allows them to find a good job in any core area, and the overload system allows them to have Stronger explosive power than prosthetics of the same level.

For those who do not understand the overload system, the "first sight kill" benefit brought by the overload system is obvious.

This is undoubtedly one of the greatest research achievements of Uni-President Technology in the past ten years. It is precisely because of the birth of this technology that the company has an extremely stable position in the coalition government.

"If the spine is not replaced and important organs are transplanted, the load brought by the overloaded system will quickly collapse the human body. In previous experiments, side effects such as spinal fractures, organ failure, or blood vessel rupture have occurred."

If you want the human body to keep up with the speed of an overloaded system in a short period of time, you need to pay a corresponding price. All the values ​​​​and parts that need to be replaced by Uni-President Technology are obtained after countless failures. the result of.

There are at least hundreds of experimental subjects who died because of the overloaded system. Because of their existence, the trump cards of the current branch companies in various regions were born. "The company calls the individuals who have successfully transformed as "transcendants". They have more abilities than the awakened ones." Stronger performance, the company created them for the purpose of dealing with the rebellion of the Awakened."

The awakened people who were the successful subjects of the experiment still retained their autonomous consciousness after being highly transplanted with prosthetic bodies.

Human free will is tantamount to a double-edged sword for the company. While it allows the awakened to abandon the side effects of cybermaniacs, it may also give rise to the idea of ​​betraying the company.

After all, not everyone is willing to stay in the company after becoming "developed" to pay off the loans owed by their military-grade prosthetics. There will also be people who adapt to the power brought by military-grade prosthetics. , and had the unrealistic idea of ​​​​confronting the company.

On this issue, individuals who share the same mind as their mother will never have the idea of ​​betraying or rebelling against the insect swarm.

Falena believes that the swarm consciousness is an excellent research object, because to a certain extent, it is also the most ideal way for the company's rulers to rule.

"The Devourer in District 17 is an exception."

Medel poured cold water on her. Genetic engineering is her best field. She was originally responsible for researching the entire Devourer project. “The vast majority of Devourer individuals do not have an active sense of autonomy. Although they do It has the ability to learn, but it cannot suppress the biological instinct, which is reflected in constant devouring and assimilation.”

If a Devourer is left alone, the most likely result is that it will gradually devour the entire city.

The biggest difference of this Devourer is that it can suppress instincts and even conduct rational research and thinking. To a certain extent, it is somewhat similar to artificial intelligence.

Madele felt that this was probably related to Song Lan.

Because the latter has always been the object that Devourer learns to imitate.

Song Lan is also the only person she knows who can ignore the intrusion of the mother's consciousness and communicate with it. If it had been anyone else, they would have been assimilated into the mother's body the moment they touched it in the underground waterway.

"But for individuals assimilated by Devourers, the side effects you just mentioned are almost negligible."

Graf expressed his opinion, "The healing ability of infected bodies allows them to repair damaged parts in a short time, so what we have to do next is to find a way to implant the overload system into the brains of the Shadow Guards. By the way, what do you think of ‘Chrono-Space Infected’, ‘Infected Guard III’ or ‘Rapid Infected’? I think these names are pretty cool...”

"This is indeed our next research direction."

As the main leader of the research team and the one who knows Gefu best, Medel said, "But please don't put those tasteless names on them."

She felt that there was definitely something wrong with Gefu.

After all, how could anyone call the king of hornworms "cute"?

She would get goosebumps every time she caught Gurfu whispering to his "little cutie".

Thinking of this, she looked at Falena, the new member of the research team, and said seriously, "You should try to avoid discussing the issue of hornworms and infectious agents with him in the future, because he will drag you to discuss it for an afternoon or a whole day. sky."

Coupled with Gefu's crazy tone, it will definitely leave an indelible bad memory.
