Captain wakes up 100,000 year later

[Operation in progress.]

Images flow very quickly from the HUD made of glass. It was a process of recalling the images that the brain remembered.

Ixa recounted all of those memories and rebuilt the interconnected information whether she recognized them or not.

Although it was said to be an artificial intelligence, Iksa was not a self with 'epic functions' such as Tyrant.

Artificial intelligence with a narrative identity was the highest grade of artificial intelligence, an individual capable of production only by consuming large amounts of special particles.

That level of artificial intelligence was able to recognize itself and place itself in a 'story' that traveled back and forth between the past, present and future.

In other words, Tyrant was someone who could say "I".

Ixa, on the other hand, was the best form we could make in the environment, but never reached that level.

Ixa provided virtual reality to all of its accepted brains as a kind of simulation game machine. It was a world where the brains said "I", not a machine.

It was a big data reader that allowed living brains to rebuild the reality they felt and experienced in the virtual world in just a few days, and countless processors read the ripples of dreams and fantasies and read and decode the context between the information.

It was a moment when science was able to realize the question of old philosophy, the brain of genealogy.

But at the same time, if it wasn't for this kind of technology, could we find context between rapidly spinning sounds and massively scattered images?

"Wow, this is how you do it."

In-depth memories that cannot be remembered unless they are themselves overlap with multiple identities, and as they melt, a single person video containing all the privacy flows quickly from the screen.

Combat and learning, conversations, relationships with lovers, friendships and brotherly friends all build up in life and run through the screen at incredible speeds.

It's a kind of synesthetic video. It's not the same as what we see on the screen or with our own eyes.

because in this video there was information about smell, information about wild sexual tension, even adrenaline and cortisol spilling into the blood vessels.

Krasus looks through countless clips of speeding glass. But I couldn't fully understand either.

It was because a hundred layers of images were developed simultaneously in the screen. Soon the captain closed his eyes and rested without looking at the screen.

"Look at this? Some of them use Hechling's heart?"

Some wizards are pouring out memories of the Witch Kivale who used the Heart of Hechling in Illuvelas Castle. After the incident, the tower was a video of evidence that the fortress was designated and managed as the highest-risk facility. Krasus enjoyed classifying the images without much effort with the dragon's vision.

Soon several faces were extracted from the middle of the image and began to be drawn on the screen on the right. And the thin solid lines and lines were drawn between each of the faces and a report on the relationships between them.

Approximately ten minutes after the analysis, Ixa submitted a report.

“Captain! It was the Horse Tower. ”

The captain slowly opens his eyes.

The elders' faces are massively displayed on the UHD. The screen shows their relationship, skills, and who led the operation, centered on the face of the Great Wizard Criteras who attempted the operation in secret.

After the analysis, Crassus was curious.

“How dare lower life? ”

The captain gets up from his seat and stands beside Krasus looking at the screen.

“I see. Do you know a face? ”

“There's no habit of remembering a human being. Just tell me who to kill. ”

The captain read the report that popped up on the screen.

“Ops designer. Archaeologist Criterias. Major Executive Organizations. Horse tower female. Overview of the operation. The Berry Gulf River in Khra Forest has been spatially removed from the atmosphere."

"I see. It wasn't rainwater, it was a river. I thought it tasted like fish."

Crassus takes in a lot of water as he flies through the clouds. The captain nods and finishes his reading.

"Operational objectives. Collapse of Illuvelas Castle and accept building of the Captain King's Tower. ETA 21 hours to complete operation. Estimated population damage, water damage, and infectious diseases, amounting to 19,000. Attention. This operation is a covert order and is not authorized in the official meeting of the Senate. If the operation fails, the tower will deny all operations. ”

The captain, who had read Ike's report summarizing the key contexts, looked at the gray-haired Grand Wizard called Chryteras. He had a big scar on his forehead and a lot of knife marks on his face, so he was not a wizard, but a man who lived with a sword in the back alley and lost.

“Tyrant. Not only is it more organized than I thought, it's incredibly disrespectful. Is it really that important to build a Horse Tower in Territories? ”

[According to Iska's analysis, the Tower is a system that requires obedience to the positions of major factions, rather than the conscience and judgment of individual wizards, to provide magical power and training. because they know that the magical power is manifesting from the terrain of the earth and from the minds of the inhabitants.]

"Land and population is power."

[Obviously, as long as the Psychic Matrix, the Great Crystal, operates around human spirits, the majority of the population will need tower management. And sometimes, when the competition in the organization gets too hot, it does this. It may be that after a few iterations of this, the entire continent was under magical control.]

Krasus grins.

“Kuhahaha! Even these wizards had their fair share. ”

The captain glances at Krasus for a moment and says,

“Illuvelas attacked, leaving the Hoimam dragon running wild. The primary goal of armed struggle is to curb war and nuclear weapons are the flowers of the art of deterrence, but these guys probably didn't know it. ”

[Obviously, from their point of view, we must be fools to suddenly challenge the Hegemony of the Tower, Captain. I'll think of it as some farmer on his land declaring independence and declaring the barn my territory.]

Krasus smiles and says.

“Captain! The continent was drawing imaginary lines for frightened lower life to find its way around. What do they call it? Yes · · · · · · Border! Those poor beasts didn't want to leave a crack like you in the middle of a battle over the entire continent in their calculations! ”

“Thanks for the explanation. Krasus.”

"Heheheheh. So, do I have to kill this criterion?"

He thanked me, but I told him to stop talking. Crassus smiles, smashes the lid of another bottle of wine brought by his servant, and sniffs with glass powder. A dark red wine flows through the cracks, and a rich aroma of grapes floats through the air.

“If the enemy's goal is to dominate the earth's surface, there must be a coffin that conveys its energy. As Clausewitz said, there must be a weakness at the center of their power. Find out what Iksa needs. I will seize that spot, pull out the Criterias, and then I will give you a thorough humiliation."

"Why do you choose such a bothersome way? Why don't you come with me and kill the Wizard?"

"The way to control the magic of the continent is useful. It was more effective than I expected, even putting a massive hand in this way. I think it would be better to pick up and swallow this rather than have a Wizard organization in our metropolis to replace this system."

Soon, Iksa returned to present the key points by simulating the brains of these poor victims. Five facilities were revealed on the map on the screen. It was a large-scale horsepower central processing facility that passed through empires and secret locations around the world.

[Captain, it works like a grid. Magical forces are being transported through five major branch centers, but they all function at the same time as a kind of safety net. Only one line remains to function unless you destroy them all. There may be more reserve lines out there, but for now, this is the most important grid line that Iksa can identify.]

The captain nods and commands.

"An eye for an eye, and a tooth for an eye. I'll blow up four of them with nuclear weapons, one by force, take down the tower and take it down. Fire the hydrogen bomb."

[Copy that, Captain.]

Wherever you are in Metropolis, that's where the captain is.

Soon, several screens showed a slowly opening missile silo in the center of Metropolis.

[Restricted Alarm Appointment. Launch ICBM. Repeat. ICBM Launch Restricted Alarm.]

A limited alarm was triggered only within the facility used to launch the ICBM. Most of them were automated, android-managed facilities, and there was no need to inform many outsiders inside Metropolis.

Soon, four intercontinental ballistic bullets (ICBMs) lay dormant in a giant missile silo on the screen. Silo reaches straight through the outer wall from the center of Metropolis.

[ICBM count. 3, 2, 1. Fire.]

Four hydrogen bombs, four ICBMs, were finally launched. The ion engine flashes blue and launches a long, thick missile into the sky. The ICBM broke through the atmosphere in an instant with an off-white aerial footprint and climbed into space orbit.

In orbit, the orbital regulator emits a blue ion light to adjust its position, and the engine starts up a second time and the ultrasonic ICBM plunges down towards the trench like a bee.

[Satellite video.]

The facilities the satellite was observing were remote islands, summits of high mountains, swamps, and barren valleys. A large number of defensive horsepower troops were stationed in a secret, central processing station.

"Oh, I miss you. I may have been a land of mayhem a few times, but destroying that castle is not easy. A well-designed facility designed to withstand the arrival of monsters that cannot be hunted, or to escape."

According to Krasus' assessment, there were six layers of enchanted barriers, surrounded by the towers of Wizards, a base facility, using protective magic.

A long barbed wire fence, a thick wall, and the top of the central magical processing facility were covered with dozens of M thick magical bricks. It appeared to be an impenetrable facility with a distraction in front of it.

[Initiate ICBM bunker burster mode.]

But destroying such facilities is a bunker buster.

Immediately, the front of the ICBM clicked and opened. Then, the shield covering the body opened, and superoscillating columns, like a white tungsten pillar, mounted in a cluster, spilled down with electromagnetic acceleration. A bunch of hydrogen bombs then start pouring down in time.

"Hostile! Activate defensive magic!" "

Magically detecting something faster than a dragon approaching from a distance alarms the wizards, but the tungsten pillars are already pouring through the last line of defense.

The entire enchanted dome glowed blue, and a myriad of magic spilled from the ground towards the ICBM. However, the superoscillating columns falling from the ICBM were much faster. Already columns of speed, each with dozens of machinery, bombarded the surface with forces similar to the rail guns.

The thick shield breaks and the stone wall cracks, and the ultraviolet pillar dug in where it cracked starts to split apart as it pounds and digs.

"Oh, oh!"

The ceiling thumps and shakes, dropping dirt and debris, and swiping gold. Finally, it collapses. While I didn't know how the wizards would react to the scene, the ultravibrating column became empty, tongue-tied, and fell down into the interior facility and worked again to grind the surroundings.

"Aah! The pillars!"

A huge void below, a three-dimensional magic circle painted uncomplicated in an empty space, and the wizards in matching hats saw dozens of meters of tungsten vibrational columns falling and smashing down the magicians and expensive facilities, screaming in horror.

"Stop him!"

"Aaaah! It's going to explode! Lower your energy output!"

"Go, go, go! Report that the third facility is under attack!"

"All facility alarms! Your place was attacked simultaneously... Aah!"

Soon after the flames erupted, the cracks in the building were swept by the columns, and the wizards rushed to recover their control in a frenzy of death.

Finally, a cluster of hydrogen bombs plunges into the place where the pillar precedes and penetrates.

"What's that?"

It exploded inside an internal facility.

I looked at the light for a moment.

That was their last light.

The underground facility boiled to a crisp and vanished.

The ground shakes, the ground cracks and Magma rises.

The enormous power generated by the hydrogen pressure fusion warheads destroyed four magical facilities in an instant. Looking down at the satellite, dirt from the explosion under the ground scattered into the sky. Four facilities were completely destroyed and dust was scattered around the hidden facilities.

[Confirm Destruction. The enemy's remaining Magical Central Facility is now in close Empire territory. Captain.]

"Fine. Let's go occupy."

The captain is standing by.
