Back to the present, Nouel and Yelena, who stood up again after appearing helpless, surprised Volkov. He never expected something like this to happen. Volkov had no idea that the chip implanted in Nouel’s body had been modified, which rendered the previous control ineffective.Volkov received signals indicating that it was working, but he was unaware that the signals were fake, as a result of the modifications made by Yelena and Nouel earlier.“I knew that would be the reaction.” Nouel smirked mockingly.“And my idea worked, didn’t it?” Yelena replied, seeking praise from Nouel.“Yeah, quite impressive.” After saying that, Nouel’s attention shifted to Volkov, who still looked very surprised. His main plan to take over Nouel’s body had completely failed.“Volkov, did you really think you could defeat us just like that? I told you, no genius emerges without making some preparations.” Nouel spoke, flexing his right hand’s joints. This made Volkov snap out of his surprise.“What do you me
Vera and several cyborgs fired at Nouel and Yelena. To counter this, Yelena immediately activated her shield, while Nouel used his sword to block every attack. Then, he leaped, delivering a kick towards Azrael, who was aiming, grabbing the body of one of Azrael’s subordinates and hurling it towards Vera using his left hand.Nouel switched back to using his sword to deflect the rapid fire shots unleashed by Azrael, while Veliant and several other cyborgs attempted to attack Yelena, who was still protected by a transparent blue shield around her.“I didn’t expect that our final opponents would be all members of your team.” Yelena commented, focusing on her surroundings as her shield continued to receive attacks.“I anticipated this.” Nouel replied casually, parrying every shot from various directions.“And you’ve prepared for it?” Yelena guessed.“Not really.” Nouel responded nonchalantly.“What? Why?” Yelena asked.“Because I know how to handle them. Anticipation or any kind of plan is
The weeks following the creation of the chip implant were quite eventful, resulting in significant changes in the city of Lycaelus. Nouel, a special forces captain, was accused of rebellion due to the murders of five civilians holding key positions in the city. Upon his arrest, he managed to escape, prompting the city to be put on high alert.For hours on end, the search continued with no results whatsoever, dominating the news headlines. The following day, news of a conspiracy involving officials aired massively and could not be canceled. This momentarily restored Nouel’s reputation among the populace, but it was soon overshadowed by a new crisis where numerous rebels attacked NewTech Industries.The large-scale warfare caused partial collapse of the main NewTech building, dealing a significant blow, especially when it was reported that Nouel had once again assumed the role of captain, only to perish in the incident after his name had been cleared. Eventually, the rebel onslaught was
Arc 02 – The BeginningThis is a prequel story, the beginning of events where everything started. The story takes place before the Wolf Team Arc.For the record, I apologize if when mentioning names, I as a writer sometimes write the names of the characters in the story with their full names, sometimes with their first or last name, even the main character is written with a nickname. All of this was done to make it easier for me as a writer to remember names and to make it easier to type each name in the story. I hope that those of you who read this story don't mind this.This is a prequel tale, the inception of everything, occurring several years before the Wolf team Arc.The world is advancing and evolving rapidly, in 2025, humans vigorously developed all kinds of technology. Those years were a period of technological advancement worldwide, even in 2040, it was the golden age for the world, a time of glory as humans lived alongside advanced and sophisticated technology. Unfortunatel
In 2074, after a year of enduring life within domed cities, humanity faced a dire challenge: a food crisis plaguing every settlement. Livestock was scarce, limited to creatures like fish and sheep. Some fish survived the war’s devastation in the oceans, as did the sheep in mountainous regions outside the war zone.Currently, scientists grapple with addressing this food crisis, urged on by government leaders to find a solution before protests erupt among the populace.In a specially designated meeting room, ten scientists gather around a round table. Their faces bear wrinkles and tired eyes, reflecting the heavy burden they carry. The table, also a screen, displays a map of the world scarred by the wounds of war, symbolizing the global devastation.Among those attending the meeting are the young Volkov, along with Dimitri and Makarov, who at this point are not yet familiar with each other and have not engaged in conflicts. They appear eager and spirited about their respective projects
After being given permission, he began addressing all the attending scientists. “Everyone, we already have domed cities as shelters, but we all forget that before this, we had bunkers as our living quarters for over a decade. These bunkers were not only shelters from post-war dangers, some humans attempted to develop farming and animal husbandry within them.”Indeed, the fact remains that since humans found new shelter, namely the domed cities in four different locations, the bunkers, which had been used for a considerable time, were abandoned and no longer operational. No humans managed them, leaving all the bunkers in a state of neglect. Of course, the bunkers remained sealed, with no systems damaged. Even the electrical systems still functioned well, so all the abandoned bunkers remained in good condition and well-maintained, untouched by the radiation filling the outside world.Many people are aware that the bunkers, which provided protection for humans during the war, are now no
“To bring all this into reality, we simply need to leave everything to the agricultural and agricultural experts. This system is guaranteed to succeed.” Dimitri concluded the discussion on the farming system, and then…Dr. Rajes Kapoor also spoke up, immediately pointing out a hurdle they faced with this system. “However, there’s one long-standing issue we’ve been pondering. That is the transportation route isn’t easy. The distance between the bunkers and the city is quite significant. Fuel might not be a problem, but transportation routes plus sterilization systems need to be upgraded.”In fact, the bunkers previously used by humans as shelter had quite a distance from the four cities. Perhaps compared to Lycaelus City, the distance is still very close, but when it comes to Edelirus City, the distance is truly far and would complicate transportation routes.“For this issue, we just need to discuss everything with construction experts who have been involved in building our dome cities
With everything agreed upon, the fieldwork team began their work. The technical team designed optimal solar panel installations. They mapped out the areas most exposed to sunlight inside the bunker and calculated the daily energy needs to support farming and plant lighting. The solar panels would be positioned to maximize solar energy utilization throughout the day.Another team began designing the vertical hydroponic system. They created detailed designs of the structure and water flow, considering the water needs of each plant, and devised contingency plans to address potential technical disruptions. Small-scale experiments were conducted to ensure that this system could be successfully implemented.In another area, the lighting specialist team tackled the task of installing special lights to integrate LED lights with solar panels. They determined the most effective light spectrum to support photosynthesis and calculated the number of lights needed to cover the entire farming area i
