Chapter 24

Chapter 24

"..." It should have been a ridiculous guess, but when everyone saw this scene on the screen, no one refuted it.

"God, what's going on in this world..." An official with a weak psychological endurance has already begun to make the sign of the cross - his faith is about to collapse.

Everyone just watched through the camera, watching this aerial fortress quickly rise to hundreds of meters in the sky within ten seconds, and then seemed to turn into a phantom, becoming blurry and transparent, and finally completely disappeared from everyone's eyes. Within sight.

"...disappeared?" The president turned back to look at the others with a dazed expression.

"……Disappeared."

Someone replied subconsciously.

"Optical invisibility...how is this done? Is it really alien technology?" The generals in the military had the biggest hearts, and they were the first to recover, so they brought this up.

"...it's definitely not earth technology anyway!" one expert replied.

... Just as all the witnesses recovered from the shock and started discussing, inside this "flying fortress", which had been transformed into the core area of ​​the bridge, Fang Yuan was sitting upright on the captain's seat, looking around him. The outside scenes are projected on various large screens.

"[Ether], how much fuel is left? How long can this ship fly?" "The fuel remaining is 43%, and it can continue to fly for 15 minutes."

AI reported such a sad number.

Yes, this is the reason why Fang Yuan didn't build this ship at all after he designed it - the voyage was too short! After all, his knowledge reserve is still somewhat insufficient. Although he can build an intra-atmospheric spacecraft that can be regarded as alien black technology in any country on earth, the problem of flight time cannot be solved.

No matter how much he optimized and modified the design, the spacecraft could only fly in the air for no more than 45 minutes, even with the energy, fuel, and cargo compartment empty.

It's not that Fang Yuan has never thought about using nuclear power, but this is not just a matter of power, the key is the engine problem - non-jet engines such as propellers cannot carry such a large ship, while jet engines, rocket engines and the like The amount of fuel that the refrigerant engine needs to consume every moment is really too large.

——Unless he or [Ether] refines a batch of fuel every half an hour or so, but that would be too low and completely inconsistent with the cool appearance and style of this spacecraft.

This is a limitation of the earth's technological level, and it cannot be changed by Fang Yuan, an alchemist and a super artificial intelligence alone.

"Maintain stealth and drive to the James River [Note 1]. Let's go underwater!" Fang Yuan issued the command. Under the control of [ether], the spacecraft flew silently to the top of the river not far away, and landed on a The uninhabited area descended to the water surface, and the sea valve was opened. The unseen spaceship sank silently and slowly, only splashing a little inconspicuously on the river bank.

Fortunately, this ship was designed with the issue of water navigation in mind. It can be used as both a surface ship and a submarine. The length of hundreds of meters is not too large. Inland rivers like the James River can barely sail in it. Navigate inside.

And because it entered the water, it no longer had to bear the heavy burden of lifting the thousands-ton hull into the air. The energy consumption of the entire ship was suddenly reduced to a very low level. Fang Yuan could even rely on the remaining three Less than one-third of the fuel was driven directly from the James River into the Atlantic Ocean.

"Finally done..." After the spacecraft entered the water, Fang Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to his AI: "[Ether], contact Alice through an encrypted channel and ask her to go to Norfolk [Note 2] She needs to know these things!" As he said this, Fang Yuan looked back at the hundreds of hibernation pods densely arranged behind him.

... ... ... ... Two days later, when Alice followed what was written in the encrypted email and came alone to an uninhabited beach near Norfolk Port, and then saw the science fiction-class ship that appeared out of thin air. , her mouth opened wide, and she remained silent for a long time.

"...Fang, are you really not an alien?" When Fang Yuan appeared, Alice came up and said this.

"..." Fang Yuan blinked, and then said seriously: "I told you, I am a magician! Don't look at this ship that looks so high-end, but it was all made by me with magic!" This is the truth, except that the "magic" is actually alchemy.

"...Okay, magic..." Alice's face was full of disbelief. She was now more inclined to think that Fang Yuan was an alien hiding among humans. Judging from his performance, this was much more reliable than magic. ! "Why did you call me here mysteriously? You want me not to tell anyone about my whereabouts..." When talking about the business, Alice was a little confused, but when she was taken by Fang Yuan to fly into the ship When she was on the sci-fi-class ship, some inexplicable feeling made her shut up and stop talking.

When she was taken to a cabin and saw everything before her eyes, she was so shocked that she could not recover for a long time.

"Fang, what is this?" Alice's expression at this time was very complicated, including shock, confusion, confusion, anger, and an inexplicable sadness.

"These are your clones, which I brought out from the secret laboratory of the Sanlian Group..." [Note 1] The James River is a river that runs through the city of Richmond. It can be said that this city is Built on this river.

[Note 2] The Port of Norfolk is a very important military port on the east coast of the United States and is also the entrance to the James River.

It’s also a new book, about traveling through infinite worlds, but it seems to focus on the everyday world. If you like it, you can check it out.

Alice naturally knew that Fang Yuan had been attacking the Sanlian Group in the past few days. Although she did not fully agree with this high-profile approach that caused a lot of collateral damage, in terms of attacking the Sanlian Group, she was Extremely agree.

Having experienced the Raccoon City Incident and having been a member of the Umbrella Company herself, she was very aware of the urinal nature of such large monopoly pharmaceutical companies. Since Fang Yuan had attacked them so harshly and decisively, it must have been something they had done. Things that violate the bottom line.

However, she never expected that she would actually have a part in it! "...This is...I..." Looking at the faces that were exactly the same as hers, Alice was speechless.

"They are all clones based on your genes, and they have been modified with LasP-lagas from the embryonic stage."

Fang Yuan took out a tablet and showed Alice the documents he had found earlier.

Alice flipped through the documents page by page, her expressions changing as she saw more and more cruel truths - anger, sadness, hatred, self-blame... "They have powerful powers just like you. , even more powerful than you! But similarly, because they are highly integrated with LasP-lagas, they are very susceptible to manipulation by superior individuals, and their personality integrity is also very problematic.

To be honest, I still dare not wake them up, for fear that they will start fighting as soon as they open their eyes - there are so many powerful versions of you, and I can't beat them! "Hearing Fang Yuan's words, Alice paused while flipping through the documents: "Have you... ever fought against them? "One of them was awakened by the person behind the Sanlian Group to deal with me. I had no choice but to kill her... Sorry!" "Fang Yuan said to Alice.

"...Don't be sorry!" Alice shook her head and said, "I should thank you for saving them from the fate of becoming experimental subjects and biological weapons..." "..." Fang Yuan did not dare to say. The clone's soul had become his experiment, and he could only change the subject: "So, what should you do next?" "..." Alice lowered her head and was silent for a while, then raised her head and said: "I will wake them up!" "Are you sure?" "I'm sure!" Alice's answer was clear and firm.

"...Then now is how to ensure that they don't lose control when they wake up...Do you have any ideas?" Fang Yuan knew that there was some kind of connection between Alice and the clones in the movie. Judging from her performance just now, This was indeed the case, so he guessed that Alice should be able to effectively control these clones that might go berserk at any time.

"...I don't know how to describe..." Alice's expression was a little confused, as if she didn't know how to formulate words: "...I can feel them, as if we are one, I am them, They are me... Maybe I can control... That's not right, it's not control, it's... I don't know how to say it!" After hearing Alice's somewhat confusing description, Fang Yuan understood that the relationship between the original body and the clone body was different. Psychopathy indeed exists. Even though the brain structures of these Alice clones are very different from Alice due to their high integration with Las P-lagas, the core connection still exists.

"Don't worry, I'll try waking one up first, and you do your best to keep the other one from losing control - I can still handle it if there's only one!" Alice considered Fang Yuan's proposal for a few seconds. Queen Zhong nodded and agreed.

Seeing this, Fang Yuan asked [Ether] to control the sleep cabin closest to them and start the wake-up procedure.

"Beep--" After a beep, you can see through the transparent sleep hatch cover that the transparent liquid filled inside is being discharged.

When all the liquid is drained, there is only a "click" sound and the sleep hatch cover opens.

A few seconds later, the Alice clone that looked like Sleeping Beauty suddenly opened its eyes.

Fang Yuan: "..." Alice: "..." Clone: ​​"..." The three looked at each other, and after a long silence, the naked clone suddenly smiled: "Don't worry, I won't Like the sisters before her, she was violent and hurtful.

Also, can you give me a piece of clothing? It doesn’t feel good to be naked—although I don’t mind showing off my body!” As she said this, she deliberately straightened her chest, causing the pair of weapons that were much larger than the real body to shake, and the waves were surging, and the white waves were rolling, which made Alice’s eyebrows jump.

“…Here, your clothes…” Although he was a little surprised by the behavior of this clone, Fang Yuan was very gentlemanly and made a dress and handed it to this “Sister Alice”, and turned around tactfully—although he had already seen what he should and shouldn’t see.

While waiting for the lady to change clothes, Fang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

It seems that his guess was right. Alice can indeed have some positive influence on the clone.

With the first successful example, the next step will naturally be easy. Fang Yuan started hibernation one after another. cabin, and Alice tried her best to use her telepathic superpowers to communicate with these clones at the deepest level.

All Alice clones did not show any hostility after waking up, and their words and deeds were very normal. At this time, they even gathered in twos and threes, curiously observing the various facilities in the spacecraft while discussing something with each other. Everything seemed normal.

But it was a little too normal! Fang Yuan had read all the information about the Alice Project and knew that these clones were cultivated as experimental subjects and biological weapons. The people of the Sanlian Group did not intend to instill complete personality memories into them - what they needed was a weapon that was easy to use, not a weapon with its own thoughts that could be used at any time. A time bomb that will rebel.

Therefore, these clones should be like the first one, a silent killing machine! 　　But what is the situation now? 　　Each of them seems to have become a replica of Alice, no, even in terms of personality, these clones are more lively and cheerful than Alice herself, and can even be called naughty... 　　Perhaps, this is because of their special soul structure.

Fang Yuan has some guesses.

It has been two days since he got the soul of the previous Alice clone, and naturally he has observed and studied her soul condition.

Unlike the complete soul of an ordinary person, and also different from the extremely shattered soul residues of those zombie-like humans, the soul state of Alice's clones is... Very special.

On the one hand, her soul maintains the integrity of the whole at a macro level, so when she wakes up, she has enough reason and wisdom to speak, understand orders, and even create the most appropriate fighting method by herself in battle.

However, on the other hand, her soul has a certain discreteness - part of her soul can be easily separated from the main body and transformed into another wave-like form.

And this separated part is not just consumed. When the process is reversed, it can be restored to its original appearance, making the soul complete.

This separability gives the soul of Alice's clone another property - extremely high plasticity.

')088'\u003eChapter 87 The Birth of Alice's Legion

Just like the artificial intelligence [ether] created by Fang Yuan using the zombie soul residue, the soul of Alice's clone can be easily changed by external forces to change its own form, memory, emotions, and even thinking patterns.

Of course, the "external force" here is not just any kind of force, but only some specific homologous forces - for example, the soul fluctuations of other clones; for example, the orders issued by the superior individual of Las P-lagas; for example, the power from the source of all clones, the real Alice.

Theoretically, when Alice connects her mind and thoughts with these clones, it is indeed possible to influence or even cover the consciousness of these clones with her mature personality and thinking mode.

Judging from the behavior of these clones as ordinary people as soon as they wake up, this is indeed happening.

Fang Yuan even speculated that if Alice wanted, she could further transform all these clones into her avatars, share the same memories, emotions, thoughts, and even consciousness with her, and finally completely merge into one individual on the spiritual level.

In fact, this influence and fusion should be two-way. Alice herself, who has also perfectly merged with the T virus and was once infected by Las P-lagas, should have a soul state similar to that of the clones, and will also be infected by the consciousness of these clones when their minds are connected to each other.

But there is a huge gap between the two in terms of personality and maturity of thinking - one has been an experimental animal since birth and does not even know common sense; the other has been through many battles, has a perfect personality and sufficient life experience, and it is self-evident who will influence whom and who will cover whom.

However, looking at the behavior of these "Alice sisters" now, it is obvious that they have not developed to this point.

Maybe Alice herself is unwilling to do this subconsciously, or maybe she does not realize that she can do this. In short, at present, all "Alice" are still independent individuals, but if they keep their spiritual connection, Fang Yuan is not sure what they will eventually develop into.

... Due to the sudden increase of hundreds of people, the cabin of the entire spacecraft suddenly seemed crowded. Fang Yuan had to take action to break down all the dormant cabins that took up too much space into raw materials to replenish other parts of the spacecraft.

After that - "Ladies!" Fang Yuan clapped his hands to let all "Alice" notice him.

"Now that everyone has woken up, the next question is how to arrange for you -" Fang Yuan looked around at everyone: "Do you have any ideas? Should you follow Alice, or follow your own wishes? To other places? ""...Follow me...How should I conceal their identities?" Although Alice is willing to let all "selves" stay together, she cannot ignore the practical issues—— Hundreds of beautiful girls who look exactly the same appear together, no one believes them even if they are not clones! "How about I help all of you fine-tune your appearance?" Fang Yuan put forward such a suggestion, and as expected, it was opposed by all "Sister Alice".

"I don't want to be anything else!" "That's right, this face is the proof that we are 'Alice', how can we throw it away casually!" "We and Alice are one, we don't need to Become someone else!”……These are the words of the “Alice sisters”. It seems that they are not willing to give up the identity of “Alice” - or in other words, in their consciousness, all of them add Alice's identity is a unified individual! It seems that the previous judgment was wrong. These Alices seem to have a somewhat unusual sense of identity and are very persistent in the identity of "Alice".

Perhaps, Alice's assimilation and fusion of the clones had already happened unknowingly, and she might even have unknowingly integrated into this group of "Alices"... He didn't know what this was all about. Is it a good thing or a bad thing, but at least one thing is clear to him. It is impossible for these Alices to change their faces and identities.

"What should we do? Or you can go to different cities in different countries around the world. If you are careful, you won't be recognized..." Fang Yuan first made a suggestion, and then rejected it the next moment: "No, Forget it, Alice, you are already under the radar of many forces. Organizations like Umbrella and Sanlian Group are not the same. Doing this will expose you faster..." "..." "... …” “…” Many Alices looked at each other, and then one of them said: “Why don’t we simply form a force and directly fight against those organizations that covet our power?” Fang Yuan: “…! "How dare you say that! Does this mean that we will directly start a war with half of the world? This is not an exaggeration. If all the Alices are really formed into an army and go to war head-on with those large pharmaceutical companies that are engaged in illegal research and human experiments, it will definitely alarm the governments of various countries.

And with the urinary attitude of those politicians, seeing the situation of Alice, you can imagine what will happen next with your knees! But... Judging from the fighting power of the previous clone, it's not really impossible... Fang Yuan, who was almost kicked in two, knew very well how strong these Alice's fighting powers were.

If they are given a period of training to master telekinesis to the point where they can do whatever they want, no army except nuclear weapons can stop them—hundreds of them can fly, are not afraid of conventional weapons, have a strength measured in kilotons, and a speed exceeding With the speed of sound, a tank can be twisted into knots with a single thought, and a superwoman can lift a destroyer at full power. Which country can stop her? ! Of course, the Alices are not without their weaknesses.

For example, T-virus inhibitors. Although only Fang Yuan currently knows how to prepare this kind of thing, there is no guarantee that someone will develop it in a while. This is a threat to Alice, whose superpowers basically rely entirely on the T-virus. Bigger than a nuclear bomb.

Another example is the unknown Las P-lagas parasite that still exists. For all Alice clones, this power that can control them from a spiritual level is also a huge threat, even more threatening than a simple T-virus inhibitor. Even worse.

Perhaps, we need to spend some time in the future to help them solve these hidden dangers... Of course, it is still too far to think about this now. After carefully considering the Alices' proposals, Fang Yuan had to admit this. Quite feasible.

He turned to look at Alice, who was looking down in deep thought: "What do you think?" "...I think..." Alice raised her head, her eyes sharp, and a cold smile on her lips: "I think this proposal is good! In other words, it couldn't be better!" Fang Yuan saw the burning anger and fighting spirit in Alice's eyes at this time - it seemed that what the Sanlian Group had done had completely angered her.

After provoking such a, no, more than a hundred superwomen, it's time to give those with evil intentions some warning...')089'\u003eChapter 88 The Nature of Telekinesis \u0026 The Beginning of the War

It is certainly not an easy task to form an Alice Army.

First, they need a secret base.

After all, this is not the end of the world in the movie world. The whole world is still generally in order. Without a sufficiently secret base, it is not easy to hide such a large group of clones who look exactly the same.

This is a very difficult thing for Alice, who has no money, power or influence. After all, opening a secret base these days is not something you can do by just finding a cave and digging a cellar.

They need a piece of land, which belongs entirely to them.

This place must be secret enough, and the terrain must meet all the requirements for building a base, such as a large area, a stable foundation, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and convenient evacuation.

Then, they also need to have enough money and manpower to help them build the base.

After all, Alice and her friends are not cavemen, and it is impossible for them to live in the original caves and grottoes. It is necessary to invest a lot of money and resources to build a modern base.

Then, they also need a stable source of income for funds and materials.

After all, guns and ammunition don't grow out of the ground, and food and medicine also need to be purchased from somewhere... In short, it is not so easy to build a permanent base that can be used by hundreds of people.

Of course, the above is all without Fang Yuan.

If an alchemist who can refine any substance at will is added, the situation will be completely different.

Yes, Fang Yuan, who has long been an international wanted criminal, has also joined the newly established Alice Corps and become the most important logistical supporter and chief researcher.

He directly took many Alices across the Atlantic by boat and came to the chaotic West African region. He found a country where warlords were fighting, opened mountains and moved stones, moved water veins, and pointed to the ground to make steel. He easily built an underground base that should have taken hundreds of construction teams several years to build.

First of all, it should be stated that Fang Yuan joined the action of Alices not because there are hundreds of D-cup blonde beauties here.

In fact, it was not just him. Gil, Carlos, Nicola, and Chris all joined the legion indignantly after learning about the clones.

Because they found out that the B.S.A.A. they had been working for was actually the mastermind behind the research and development of biological weapons, which immediately reduced their trust in the organization to the lowest level.

It can be said that they are now wary of unfamiliar teammates behind them every time they perform a mission, and almost everyone looks like an eyeliner and a ghost sent in by those malicious pharmaceutical consortiums.

At this time, the Alice Legion, an extralegal organization that is absolutely incompatible with those large pharmaceutical companies, is a force that makes them absolutely assured.

Of course, for Fang Yuan, he joined this organization for another purpose, which is to thoroughly study the true nature of telekinesis! Although it is very pleasing to the eye to have beautiful young ladies with great figures walking in front of him every day, Fang Yuan still remembers his job. He is an alchemist whose primary goal is to explore the truth! It is impossible for Fang Yuan not to be curious about telekinesis, an ability that can seriously interfere with or even block his alchemy.

Moreover, after fighting with the clone of Alice that he killed with not-so-glorious means, Fang Yuan became more and more jealous of telekinesis, a superpower that is so convenient and easy to use that it is almost like cheating.

In fact, when studying the soul of this clone of Alice, Fang Yuan has already discovered some clues.

As mentioned earlier, the soul of the clone of Alice presents a unique discreteness, which can arbitrarily separate part of the soul and transform it into a special "wave", and can also arbitrarily reverse this process to restore the integrity of the soul.

This makes the souls of these clones have a unique high plasticity, which is also the main reason why the Alice Legion was born.

However, in addition to this, Fang Yuan also found that it is this soul material transformed into a wave form that makes Alice and her clones have powerful superpowers.

There is no need to say more about abilities such as telepathy. The soul in a wave state itself is easier to spread in space, just like Fang Yuan transforming his mental power into a wave state, the principle is roughly the same.

But the more critical thing is the telekinesis that can interfere with reality with thoughts and block the penetration of mental power at the same time, which is also the direction that Fang Yuan is most concerned about.

A pure wave-state soul does not have the ability to directly interfere with reality, nor does it have the characteristics of blocking mental power.

Fang Yuan has already experimented with the soul of Alice's clone - even if the part of the soul transformed into a wave state is released to the outside world, there will still be no observable physical force.

As for the latter, in fact, when the soul is transformed into a wave state, it is easier to be guided and operated by Fang Yuan's mental power, just like the powdered soul that constitutes [ether].

However, when this wave-state soul comes into contact with the cells that perfectly integrate the T virus, a miracle happens! 　　A real force field appears in the material world - the nature of this force field is very, very strange. It can not only exert physical force in any direction on matter out of thin air, but also serve as a special medium to block the penetration of mental power. It has both materiality and spirituality. Fang Yuan's current knowledge cannot be fully analyzed.

More importantly, Fang Yuan discovered that when this change occurred, this part of the wave soul was also completely consumed - this shows that the process of launching telekinesis is essentially no different from consuming souls to create matter in alchemy. It is also a special transformation between soul and matter, but one is the transformation from soul to material mass, and the other is the transformation from soul to force field that can affect matter.
