Alien Omega, Black Shark Base.

Sitting in the quiet gray-and-white lounge, Diana Lance picked up the teacup in front of her in a trance, and poured herself several sips of black tea to suppress her shock.

The leader sat across from her and asked calmly, "So, do you have any other doubts about crystal particles?"

"No, cough...!" Diana choked on a sip of tea and said in a panic, "No, no more!"

Sylph: "That's good. So, do you need a little more time to digest the above information?"

Diana: "No, no, no need!"

"Diana, relax a little bit." Sylph smiled at the corners of her eyes. Today she did not wear a black hood, revealing silver-white hair, blue eyes, and a wrinkled but still elegant face.

"Then let's continue talking about the White Bird Project." She said, "Because the news must be blocked, very few people know the truth about the White Bird Project, only a few senior researchers at the Black Shark Base, the Emperor, Marshal Chen, and othersThere are Speaker Haraji of the Glorious Dominion, Deputy Speaker Luna Lopez and others."

Diana quickly put down her teacup, pursed her lips, and her heart was beating fast. She knew that now she was also a member of the world's secrets.

"The White Bird Project has two branches, and the White Bird Expedition is one of them."

The leader sighed softly, "The emperor and Marshal Chen—of course, there are also those Yin Beidou generals who don't know the truth, but because of their aggressiveness towards the universe or their instinctive sense of crisis, they have been supporting the march—Undertook the pressure on the surface."

"As for the Black Shark Base, in addition to being responsible for daily research, the more important mission is to take the spiritual consciousness projection technology as the core and be responsible for executing another branch of the White Bird Project, the Matrix Project."

"Basic plan..."

Diana pinched her fingers. She thought of the large number of human bodies she saw in the base's top-secret laboratory last time, and sat upright in her seat.

At this time, someone knocked on the door, and the leader turned around and said, "Come in."

"Leader." A male base researcher came in, walking quickly to Sylph with an excited and serious expression, and said something in a low voice.

A few seconds later, Sylph nodded in relief, "Is that so, has the empire decided yet?"

Researcher: "Yes, as you expected."

Sylph hooked the corner of her mouth: "I see, you go out first, notify the base, and hold a plenary meeting in two hours."

"Yes, leader!" The male researcher turned around and went out, glanced at the embarrassed Diana, and carefully closed the door.

"Well, Your Excellency..." Diana vaguely heard some shocking keywords such as "all-out war", "announcement", and "dominion", and became even more restless. "Excuse me, it is the empire. What happened to the empire?"

"There's no rush to say this, it's just that something that will come sooner or later happened." The leader calmly made a gesture of pressing down, as if nothing happened, and continued to explain to her.

It turns out that when the White Bird Project was formulated, Emperor Kaios also anticipated that the White Bird Expedition would be difficult to sustain. Over time, it would inevitably exhaust the elite combat power of mankind.

The Matrix Project is a research project intended to assist the expedition.The ultimate goal is to use the latest spiritual consciousness projection technology to project the warrior's consciousness into the matrix, and then send the matrix instead of the original body into the crystal nest.

In this way, if the crystal nest kills the matrix, the consciousness projection will be pulled back into the original body, avoiding direct death.

Although it is difficult for the human spirit to withstand multiple projections, even if it can only be projected once, it is equivalent to an extra life per person... If this plan can be successful, the support it will bring can be said to be earth-shaking.

Speaking of this, Sylph, who had talked too much, lowered her head and drank tea to moisten her throat. Diana was stunned for a while, unable to recover for a long time.

In just half a day, the leader told her too much information. If she didn't have a lot of relevant knowledge, she might have fainted by now.

"But, but...Your Excellency, Chief."

After thinking hard for a long time, Diana suddenly showed confusion, and couldn't help but whispered: "Isn't the consciousness projection technology at this stage still unable to carry the memory of the main body? His Royal Highness, Lai An, doesn't remember Jiang and me."

In this case, how can the soldiers with a blank memory go to the front line?

"Ah." But as soon as she finished speaking, Diana covered her mouth, secretly thinking that something was wrong, revealing that Jiang Jianming had asked her related questions before.

Although she was autistic, she was not stupid. When Jiang Jianming asked, it was hard not to think of something when he saw the crown prince who had died for three years and then suddenly came back to life.In addition, Diana herself is a nobleman, and knows that there are many secrets hidden in the empire that will not be mentioned on the surface.

After a little reasoning, she guessed that the present Crown Prince was the projected base body.The leader didn't care, just smiled at Diana, put down the teacup and explained: "Your guess is correct, Leian Keos is indeed a projection of spiritual consciousness."

"The history of the Matrix Project is as long as the White Bird Expedition. We explored it bit by bit. Among them, the 000 and 001 Matrix were born under special circumstances. In an emergency, we had to temporarily adopt immature technology."

Diana suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."

In fact, she wanted to ask what was the emergency and who was being projected, but she couldn't muster up the courage to interrupt, so she had to hold back her curiosity.

Sylph continued: "No. 002 is the first formal experimental subject. At that time, a researcher proposed the idea of making the matrix into a human-shaped tranquilizer weapon, hoping to bring the suicide attack style of the White Bird Expedition to the extreme and give the crystal nest moreBig blow."

"The base voted to pass this proposal, and the Glorious Dominion undertook the work of observing the conditions of the experimental subjects."

"It took almost another two decades, and it wasn't until five years ago that the data on the new matrix was finalized and it went into mass production, which is exactly what you saw that day.

Diana couldn't help but let out a small "ah". At that time, she felt creepy when she saw the dark environment and the human body in the training warehouse.Now after hearing all the causes and consequences, all that remains in my heart is the shock like a huge wave.

Sylph said with a heavy face: "There is only the last step of the spiritual consciousness projection technology left. The time so far has been won by the heroic souls who sacrificed in the White Bird Expedition. We must not let it down."

"...Yes!" Diana bit her lower lip, she had unconsciously clenched her hands, knowing that this was the reason for her being here.

For the blood of the martyrs, for the future of the empire, for the continuation of mankind... and also for the sleeping brother to wake up and return with a new body.

"Very good." The leader smiled slightly, "Now that you have made up your mind, start working from tonight, and I will find someone to take you."

"Yes!" Diana nodded like a chick pecking rice, her eyes were clear, and she knew nothing about the future that she was about to be crazily squeezed...

When it came to the end, Diana still couldn't hold back, and whispered, "Boss, then... who are the substrates 000, 001, and 002?"

The leader was silent for a while, stood up, and said slowly: "000 and 001, you will know soon."

She picked up the black mask that was placed next to her, and put it back on. The metal covered her face, and the electronic voice replaced the original voice.

"As for 002, he's nothing special."

"He's just a base researcher, not even one of the most talented."

"He said to me that day that since there are still uncertainties in technology, the elites cannot be allowed to take unknown risks."

"So he volunteered to be a test subject... that's all."

"Is...it's me...?"

In the middle of the banquet hall of Bai Emerald Palace, a trembling voice came from Hara Nagasawa's mouth.

His face was pale, "You said, the first formal experimental body of the Matrix Project, the human-shaped tranquilizer weapon that can effectively attack the crystal nest, is me!?"

At this moment, it seemed that all the lights above his head were shining on this frail young man, making Yuan Nagasawa's eyes turn pale and he had difficulty breathing.

The substrate plan that His Excellency Lopez described just now is enough to make him dizzy, not to mention the final hammer blow.

He couldn't accept why, in just a few words, the human empire, which had been thriving, fell into a precarious situation; they, who had been enjoying peace and prosperity, became poor people colonized by the crystal particle race?

The past years are suddenly filled with the frozen blood and tears of the ancestors, and the future is infected by the long night, with no end in sight.

And for a long time, as the son of the speaker of the Dominion, he lived a good life and was the "light of the disabled" who was touted and loved by the people... he had another identity.

Is he dreaming?If so, this is really an absurd, bizarre and shocking dream!

Looking up suddenly, the dream has not woken up, no, this is not a dream.Hara Nagasawa found that other people were looking at him.

His Majesty the Emperor looked at him, Deputy Speaker Lopez looked at him, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at him, and His Highness Jiang also looked at him.

——Since it is part of the basic body plan, and it is still a new type of weapon basic body that has successfully survived to the present, it means that this pampered former little prince is not only the subject to be observed.

He will also be brought to the battlefield, thrown like bait to the crystal nest full of unknown fears, to complete his mission as a weapon.

Everyone was looking at Yuan Nagasawa, and the emotions in those eyes were too complicated: hardness, guilt, coldness, intolerance, pity... and waiting, waiting for Yuan Nagasawa's final reaction.

Hara Nagasawa lowered his head, black hair covering his blue face.

"Is that so...it turns out." He moved his Adam's apple and muttered softly.

Slowly, his palms clenched and then loosened, loosened and clenched again, repeatedly tormenting.

Suddenly, this crippled human youth from Starling raised his face.

There was a smile on his face, and the light of surprise flashed in his eyes, like little fireworks.

He exaggeratedly waved his hands and sighed: "God! It turns out that I once said such handsome words!!"

Lopez was slightly moved, and saw Yuan Nagasawa's cheeks flushed with excitement, and said quickly in a low voice: "Leading the soldiers and dedicating heroically! Oh my god, is this me? It seems like the protagonist who will only appear in big movies."

His eyes flickered: "I am a secret human-shaped weapon. May I ask if it is the magic weapon? Will it be written in textbooks in the future?"

He spoke incoherently: "Oh, and it's the first official experimental subject. Yes, in the settings of big movies, Unit 1 is often the strongest..."

"Can I be like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? My God, this is...it's like a dream...so good, so good."

Hara Nagasawa blinked quickly and kept talking, but it was more like emphasizing it to himself over and over again than talking about it.

"Nagasawa."

Lopez suddenly called out to him.

Hara Nagasawa's voice was cut off all of a sudden, he pursed his mouth tightly, trying to maintain the curvature of that smile, but there were already tears in his eyes.

He looked down and saw himself shaking.

His legs trembled intermittently.

Hara Nagasawa hurriedly pressed his knee hard.He was trembling with fright even before he was out of the battle. This is too uncool, and it doesn't fit the cool concept of a humanoid weapon at all.

But the legs are completely out of control.Gradually, his whole body began to tremble, and his teeth rattled uncontrollably.

"...Hehe, there's just one thing that's not so good," Hara Nagasawa clenched his molars, holding back his sore nose and forced a smile, "...Father should train me as a real humanoid weapon. If that's the case,It won't be so embarrassing now..."

Lopez walked in front of him, with distressed eyes, "I'm sorry, Mr. Yuan."

She stroked the child's face and said guiltily: "Over the years, the speaker has really treated you as his own son. Before the envoys set off, he lost sleep all night because he couldn't face you and tell the truth in person."

Hara Nagasawa threw himself into Lopez's arms, and he couldn't bear it anymore, crying bitterly.

In front of His Majesty the Emperor, on such an important and confidential occasion, this is undoubtedly very rude.

But no one interrupted the crying, neither the iron-fisted empress nor the cold and arrogant crown prince spoke.

Hara Nagasawa didn't even know how long he had been crying, until it gradually subsided, he felt someone gently patting his back.

Jiang Jianming walked to Yuan Changze's side at some point, his brows were a little sad, but deep in his expression was very calm.

His voice was gentle: "It seems that the little boy is still a little away from the humanoid weapons in the big movie."

Hara Nagasawa choked up and said, "I will train hard."

Lai An also came down and stood beside Jiang Jianming.

"Are you afraid?" His Highness asked lightly.

Yuan Nagasawa cried and nodded, he choked up a bit, with a strong nasal voice: "But I will train hard."

Lai An glanced at Yuan Nagasawa, then exchanged glances with Jiang Jianming, who nodded slightly.

So the crown prince raised his eyes, and said unquestionably: "In the future, you will act with us. Before going to the far interstellar, learn not to cry."
