From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars

To be honest, if life is still short and limited after becoming a digital life, some people, including Sainz, may still choose to leave this world.

But the temptation of "immortality" is too great for carbon-based creatures with limited lifespans.

This is why so many people have been trying to pursue immortality from ancient times to the present.

This is also why Frederico, the old emperor of the Star Dragon Empire, coveted the "eternal cells" developed by the Forerunner civilization.

Although choosing to become a digital life also means continuing to work for the Atlas Group - the working hours have been extended to 3 times, and even after retirement, there is no real freedom, but the pie that Amber painted is really impossible for everyone not to fantasize.

What if one day in the future, digital life can really come to the fore?

What if?

"After all your teaching team died at that time, you became the first batch of "immortals"?" Sainz suddenly asked.

Grace nodded: "Yes."

"Why. Don't you want freedom?"

"Of course we do, but we are also very clear that if it weren't for Boss and Lilith, we wouldn't have the opportunity to become digital life and embark on a path close to immortality."

Grace didn't seem to be answering this question for the first time, so she answered without thinking.

"Even if we continue to work in the Atlas Group?"

"Anyway, we have nowhere else to go, right? And at that time, everyone in our teaching team died a little hastily, and our lives should have ended on Robert IV. It was Boss who brought us out one by one.

So if we can continue to do what we are familiar with in Atlas and don't have to worry about life danger, our teaching team is very willing to follow Boss and watch him complete his grand plan. This matter is still very meaningful to us."

Grace's answer is also the common answer of the teaching team or the 'elders' of the Immortal Corps. Everyone has similar ideas. After becoming digital life without so many shackles, they actually think more clearly.

These people all fought their way out of the sea of ​​blood and corpses, and they learned all their skills by fighting and killing. The biggest advantage of becoming a digital life is that they don’t have to worry about dying on the battlefield.

Since there is such an ‘invincible cheat’, why not let your skills shine and heat more?

After listening to Grace’s answer, Sainz fell into silence again. After a while, he clenched his fist as if he had made an important decision, and then said:

“I am willing to become a digital life and continue to work for the Atlas Group.”

“Uh, do you want to think about it again?”

Grace obviously didn’t expect that after learning the truth and the choice, Sainz still made a decision so quickly. He scratched his head and continued:

“Boss also said that he hopes you can consider it carefully. After all, you will basically not feel tired after becoming a digital life, so the working hours will increase a lot. Boss also said frankly that he will ‘exploit’ us more.”

“Then will you feel tired after becoming an ‘immortal’?” Sainz asked back.

"To be honest, I have forgotten what fatigue feels like after such a long time. In addition to missions and training every day, I spend most of my time learning things I have never learned before, such as studying the history of human art recently."

"That's it, I am willing to join the 'Immortal Legion' and continue to serve the Boss. I can't wait to travel in the virtual space~"

"."

Grace was stunned for a moment, then looked at the others.

"What about you? What are your plans?"

"What else can I say? Of course, I will join the 'Immortal Legion'. It's better to live in a different way than to die~"

"That's right. I haven't driven enough battleships yet. And from what you said, I won't die even if I'm hit by the main gun of the enemy ship. What should I be afraid of?!"

Grace: "Well, generally speaking, I won't die"

"That's needless to say, count me in!"

"Count me in too!"

"Yes, we will regroup together and the ship will be called 'Immortal Winged Hussar'!"

Although Grace knew very well that 99% of the employees who died in the battle would eventually choose to transform into digital life and continue to serve Atlas when they made their choice.

But the crew of the Winged Cavalry is still somewhat abstract, and it is estimated that it takes the shortest time to complete the multiple-choice questions.

"Well, since you have all made your choices, I will register them all. You can't regret it after you make your choices."

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

"."

Such scenes are happening simultaneously in dozens of independent virtual spaces opened up by Valhalla. The "first generation" of the Immortal Legion has basically become "newcomer guides" at this time, responsible for guiding these reincarnated people who died in the battle of the "Pillar of All Life" but successfully uploaded their personal data.

No mistakes in one post, one content, one book, one bar!

Just as Grace knew, waves of reincarnated people finally chose to transform into digital life after coming to the virtual space.

After all, not everyone has the courage to face death directly-especially when they have seen another "road to immortality".

The ‘multiple choice question’ that Amber gave to everyone essentially only had one answer. The two options he gave were actually completely unequal. Rather than a multiple choice question, it was more like a direct path for the reincarnated.

This also caused the number of the Immortals to surge during this period, and a large number of combat fleet members, HCP pilots, and heavy armored combat boat drivers also joined the Immortals’ combat sequence.

This also means that once a large number of warships, HCPs and other combat units suitable for the Immortals are manufactured, the mission of the Atlas Immortals will gradually transform from the current special operations such as decapitation, battlefield node destruction, infiltration and reconnaissance to frontal combat.

“It seems that the deployment of such combat units will also be put on the agenda.”

Looking at the recent construction status of the Immortals reported by Baninger, Amber also realized that the Immortals were gradually approaching their initial goal of building them.

Baninger: "But it will take some time for each equipment manufacturer to readjust their production lines. I have confirmed this with Eugene and Director Orns."

After thinking for a moment, Amber said, "We can allocate some of the existing equipment first, and then make temporary modifications. After all, Orns and his team have made similar modifications several times before. In this way, we can also pull out some units for adaptive training."

"No problem, I'll arrange it now, Boss." Baninger suddenly smiled, "I didn't expect that this legion was really built by you, Boss. I am more and more curious about what it will be like when the immortals appear on the front battlefield."

"I am also looking forward to it~"
