I, the undead, save the world with the dolls

"...I didn't say I would go out with you!" Antonina was stunned for two seconds before she immediately retorted harshly. Then she realized that her attitude was a bit strange and added another sentence.

"What I mean is, this isn't finalized yet, so don't just jump into it. Don't let your lust get you thinking that any humanoid will want your body. Be more self-aware! You've already established relationships with so many humanoids!"

"I haven't said anything yet. Why did you think of this? When have I ever been greedy for you... No, I don't think you are greedy for me, right?" Sun Yang wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He truly couldn't handle it any more. Speaking of which, it felt like he hadn't interacted with his beloved wives in ages. It was all just fighting and killing. But this place hadn't been a good place for relaxing or chatting before.

Antonina seemed to become a little lonely for a moment, but soon changed her face to a rather indifferent one. However, she basically had this expression when she was not performing social procedures, and Sun Yang was used to it.

"That's what I'm asking for. Professor, I've scanned the global network 2268 times. There's no sign of any avatars or secret gatherings of alien forces. I think it's safe to say that the alien elders are truly dead."

"You're trying to fool me with serious matters...Okay. Since Antonina said so, there's no problem." Sun Yang nodded exaggeratedly.

"You've placed so much trust in me that my cyberstomach hurts a little." Antonina touched her belly, but there were only a lot of cables there now.

"You're truly the most reliable when it comes to information warfare. Don't let your imagination run wild. Even if your judgment is flawed or you get into trouble, it doesn't matter. I'll cover it for you. Who hasn't made a mistake? Don't worry, no matter how many times you make a mistake, I'll continue to trust you."

Sun Yang gently touched Antonina's long green hair. It didn't feel very good, it was very hot, probably about 70 degrees.

"Hmph... This is fine, for now. But it may not be useful in the future." Antonina snorted, but still looked very pleased.

Finally, what does Antonina like? I can't just feed her all sorts of two-person meals, right? Sun Yang quietly made a point of searching for Antonina's preferences. He should probably know by asking Pascal or Croce; they're pretty familiar with each other.

489 Finishing Work (Part )

After appeasing Antonina, Earth's various forces gradually stabilized. Peace seemed to have arrived, and humanity would once again become the masters of this planet... provided that negotiations with the remaining, surrendered alien forces on Earth did not break down.

The mess left behind by the Elders was truly enormous. Humanity was shocked to discover that without the Elders' technology, human civilization would rapidly decline within a few months.

The troops they left behind are also an ultimate threat. The remaining human forces may not be as numerous as these messy aliens!

Furthermore, within the major organizations, a group called "Skirmishers," comprised of rebellious mutants, is actively accepting a large number of mutants who have surrendered. They are actively absorbing the ammunition and troops they are sending. This force is growing at an unprecedented rate. Sooner or later, it will become the representative of the remaining aliens.

The Skirmishers naturally wanted to claim their own place on this planet, but most humans might not think so. However, during the war, these Skirmishers did make enough contributions that people couldn't just ignore those contributions and judge them based solely on whether they were mutants.

Of course, this wasn't the primary reason. The main reason was that without the skirmishers, humanity's combat effectiveness would be significantly reduced. And if the skirmishers, familiar with the allies' combat capabilities, defected at this point, it could truly spell the end of Earth. The people of Earth no longer had the energy or resources to fight another battle. Everyone was exhausted.

If the mutants want to survive, they have to pull all the alien troops onto their own vehicles. Meanwhile, the humans are also worried that their own forces are not enough to destroy the remaining enemies.

So, in this complex and tense atmosphere, the Earth Council called for a meeting to clarify things and stop the frequent attacks. If there is anything, talk it over.

Sun Yang was naturally informed of such a significant meeting that would determine the future of the planet. However, he did not go. He ignored them and ran off to get resources.

***

"Alright, this is the last batch. We can't stay here any longer." Sun Yang placed his hands on several containers and transferred the cargo holds filled with alien alloys and transuranic crystals to the main base. These were strategic materials.

The research dolls will continue to analyze the materials at the main base to see if they can use some alternative materials to produce materials with equivalent or slightly inferior performance.

If this is really impossible, Sun Yang can only equip the most powerful humanoid team with these reserved alien alloys and have them follow him to carry out dangerous missions.

Saturn alloy's high heat storage property may be very suitable for making some special ammunition, but this property is very troublesome as armor.

This means that Saturn alloy can only be used for humanoid bodies or armor. After all, their protective volume is basically not enough to survive when too much heat is stored.

But the problem is that Sun Yang also plans to build new tanks, armored vehicles and helicopter fighters. Does it all rely on this alloy? If this thing is hit by the metal jet of a modern RPG, it will still penetrate.

But that was a story for later. The dolls still had plenty of time to delve into their research, and Sun Yang had the patience to wait. Besides, he hadn't lost contact with XCOM.

"Professor, I've compiled a list of T-dolls heading to the XCOM world. Please review it." Pascal's direction appeared on the communication channel. Then, a document listing thirty research T-dolls and ten combat T-dolls appeared in front of Sun Yang.

"Is Sur the leader of the combat T-dolls? There's no problem here, she's quite reliable. These scientific research T-dolls... basically have no experience or resumes in going out? Are they all promoted from intelligent bodies? Their information in the Oasis has been screened and cleared, right? I don't want the Oasis's technology to be mastered by the locals within a month after a T-doll disappears." Sun Yang flipped through the resumes of the T-dolls who were going to take over the job.

"All the humanoids have been replaced with spare bodies, and the mind cloud maps have been screened. Don't worry, Professor, we are very familiar with these work processes." Pascal explained.

"That's true. Many human clients don't want the dolls to take their experimental data out." Sun Yang murmured, sliding his fingers across the list.

It is impossible for Kroki, Antonina and Drase, whom he brought with him, to stay here for a long time. After all, they are the backbone of the scientific research humanoids in the base and cannot stay here.

Sun Yang also had no confidence in XCOM and its commander, Lena. Although these people were very brave and good at fighting the aliens, things became difficult to say after the defeat.

Although the relationship between Commander Lunna and the members of the Earth Council was tense, and it seemed that conflicts and rifts could accumulate and erupt at any time over time, Sun Yang knew that he could not easily pull Lunna completely to his side, even though he had made great efforts.

After all...Lenna might be more familiar with the Earth Council, and they will live on the same planet after all.

Sun Yang was just a helping hand that appeared out of nowhere. He had no idea what had happened in the past, and if he rashly inserted himself into the political structure of this planet, he might suffer a great loss.

Sun Yang wanted to kill all the people in the council directly, but XCOM here might have a rebellious mentality.

After much deliberation, Sun Yang decisively took advantage of the time when XCOM and the surviving organizations were arguing with each other, and silently followed Antonina's instructions to plunder the supply bases and material storage areas left by the aliens on Earth.

He couldn't be bothered to meet with some inexplicable organization and attend the post-victory meeting—which was essentially the division of spoils based on contributions. Honestly, while Sun Yang was talking nonsense, he was already packing the loot into his bag.

If it were just XCOM, Sun Yang would probably believe that Commander Lunna would side with him. But if you factor in the other scattered organizations on this planet...it's hard to say. There are too many people stirring up trouble, and Sun Yang can't just destroy everyone he dislikes.

As the power of the forces grew, Sun Yang felt that he could no longer tolerate the various clowns hanging around him. If it were the beginning, Sun Yang might have joined in and argued to support XCOM.

But now... Sun Yang wasn't participating at all. You guys can discuss whatever you want, I'll take everything I want. These forces, with only light infantry, can't stop Sun Yang anyway. If the local forces want to take action, then let them fight.

"Maybe it's just my nature that's preventing me from doing a complete massacre and improving the planet." Sun Yang has read the Haihu comics, so he is more or less aware of his own mentality.

He might, possibly, probably, be gradually developing into a magnetic field lunatic. When one possesses infinite and supreme power, it is difficult to tolerate unpleasant things happening in front of him.

"Hold on, Sun Yang, you need the scientific researchers here. If you don't make friends with the local forces, do you have to rely on yourself to train and abduct the population? Don't go to that step, the humanoids won't agree." Sun Yang took several deep breaths in succession to expel his somewhat dark thoughts.

[Professor? Professor? What's wrong with you? You seem to be mumbling a lot of disturbing things to yourself...] Pascal asked worriedly from the other side of the screen.

"I'm fine, don't worry. Maybe I'm just a little stressed out from fighting the aliens here," Sun Yang stroked his chin and looked at Pascal, who was still looking anxious across the screen. "Pascal, do you know what humans do when they're stressed out?"

[Hmm...sleeping, smoking, drinking, and getting a massage... Professor, would you like a professional massage package? Even an undead person can enjoy it! ~Strider orders an ultimate package every week.] Pascal searched the internet database for data and listed it for Sun Yang.

"Huh? There's such a thing?" Sun Yang was completely baffled. Although he knew that Strade had asked the doll to give him a SPA and massage when he first arrived, he never expected that this guy was so addicted.

"Loosening up your muscles is good for humans. Strider is quite old, after all. Following you around everywhere, even the strongest soul-fortified ones will eventually have to accept their age." Pascal continued.

"No, no, no, my way of relieving stress is... you guys." Sun Yang threw a very conspicuous wink at Pascal.

"Ah... well... I understand. Can we talk privately?" Pascal looked as if she was about to agree, but she silently turned her camera around. A large group of humanoids were around her, conducting operations at the base. She was still at her work station.

"Anyway, when I get back, just wash up and wait for me." After reading the list and making sure there was no problem, Sun Yang started to return to the XCOM spaceship.

They were probably arguing over there. If it was finished, fine. But if it wasn't, don't blame me for being impolite. Sun Yang had no intention of abiding by local rules. He only respected the will of the XCOM commander. After all, this was the only organization worth associating with. Anything else...no need.

[The body needs regular maintenance and cleaning every week... Hmm? I'm the first one?] Pascal pondered for a moment before finally understanding Sun Yang's subtext.

"Let's go back and get intimate, hahahaha~ Okay, I'm busy here too, let's talk later." After Sun Yang finished speaking, he hung up the phone casually.

Pascal, who was maintaining operations in the main base, tilted his head. These words could be spoken privately or publicly, but why did the professor say them now? Was there some deeper meaning behind this?

"Why do you want to say it now?" Pascal pinched his chin, staring at the operation of the base while muttering to himself.

"Pascal, the professor may just be eager to find you SOX, there is no other meaning." said the humanoid who was not wearing any skin and operated purely by a mechanical body.

"You haven't experienced it..." Pascal said unhappily. She was rarely angry.

"I know. I have a copy of the data of the New Vegas Wasteland Machine. The robot was sold to cowboy bars and had sex with various men and women, so I know what it looks like when a man can't wait." The humanoid said dryly.

"...Send me a copy of the information." Pascal decisively asked for a copy of the information to learn about the achievements of the old and new eras.

490 Finishing Work (Part )

The venue for the meeting was chosen to be the United Nations headquarters in New York. After the end of the war with aliens, the headquarters underwent minimal renovations and was finally able to accommodate representatives of various forces, factions, and races to come in for discussions.

After the war, the various factions that had originally been united under the pressure of the alien war soon began to harbor their own ulterior motives. Around this meeting, there was no organization that could represent the official.

All the factions dispatched different levels of troops according to their relationships and combat effectiveness, occupying the advantageous battle terrain around the meeting. Although most people were tired of the endless war, they were also accustomed to solving problems with weapons in their hands.

The military force is stretched thin and the crisis is imminent.

This meeting was mainly composed of the human faction led by XCOM, and the mutant and alien factions led by the Skirmishers.

XCOM is the main force against the aliens, with Commander Renna and her elite subordinates carrying almost all the weight. They have the most elite troops and technology, and their military achievements make them the leaders of a certain faction.

XCOM's counterpart is the Skirmishers, a group that harbors rebellious mutants. They're happy to accept more aliens of various races. It's precisely because of this organization's acceptance of alien renegades that the remaining alien forces on Earth are so weak. After all, why fight to the death when you can just surrender and live?

Therefore, if they rashly went to war with the skirmishers, those troops, whose fighting spirit was already low, might launch frantic retaliation in a last-ditch fight. This was something the remaining Earth forces did not want to see.

Apart from these two opposing organizations, the rest are relatively minor organizations.

The largest number of rebels support XCOM because, in their view, it is XCOM that has been making every effort to provide the rebels with various combat supplies and medical supplies, the intelligence needed for guerrilla warfare, and even prepared humanoid combat robots to provide protection for each gathering place.

Although these were actually provided by Sun Yang, if Sun Yang and the humanoids didn't tell them, the rebels would have no idea where the source was. They only knew that XCOM really helped them a lot in the war, and they had to support XCOM for both emotional and logical reasons.

The Death Faction and the Templars had other plans. Neither of them was willing to submit to XCOM or the Skirmishers, and both wanted to have their own territory or a say in future meetings.

Finally, there is the Earth Council... This faction mainly focuses on the legitimacy of the XCOM organization and whether each organization is an illegal armed force.

This organization is a faction that is quite adept at stirring up trouble. They are known for their eloquence, strong lobbying skills, and the ability to paint a rosy picture, successfully fooling some people into following them. After all, our ancestors also have legitimate power.

Now these organizations are arguing over the future of the Earth, the division of world territories, and the attitude towards the remaining aliens.

At least the Skirmishers genuinely didn't want to treat the aliens and mutants too harshly. Once they started, it was only a matter of time before they were burned. They had to eliminate the possibility of persecution from the outset and draw all the aliens to their side.

***

When Sun Yang tidied his clothes and headed to the meeting place leisurely, the various factions were still arguing over their contribution to the war, post-war resources, and the distribution of power.

Even before Sun Yang entered the meeting room, he could already hear the chaotic shouting and debates, the din rivaling that of a dozen vegetable markets. It was hard to believe this meeting had already been going on for days. If it weren't for the bald figure from the Earth Council, who had been providing intelligence support to XCOM, presiding over the meeting, the meeting would have been paralyzed.

"Who are you?!" Several scattered mutants holding magnetic rifles pointed their guns at Sun Yang, but the defenders from other factions around them immediately pointed their guns at these mutants.

"Put your gun down, you bastard!" Several members of the Resistance and XCOM shouted at them. "You're pointing a gun at our hero! Just pointing a gun at him is reason enough for me to kill you!"

Sun Yang looked at the magnetic rifles pointed at him and shrugged nonchalantly. He could stand there and let these stragglers fire a volley of bullets without dying. And the outcome wouldn't be pretty—at least then, Sun Yang could legitimately start slaughtering these mutants.

"The situation doesn't look good, but I arrived in time. Guard, are you sure you want to point a gun at me? Do you want to try pulling the trigger? I guarantee that what happens to you and your faction will be very interesting." Sun Yang pointed at the mutant guard's weapon.

The guard seemed to have just joined the battle and was unaware of Sun Yang's fame. Unable to withstand the pressure from the surroundings, he decisively lowered his gun and dejectedly stepped out of the way.

"You made a wise decision." Sun Yang's gaze swept over this mutant and the team around him. Every mutant warrior felt the pressure on him doubled.

Sun Yang did not continue to embarrass these people. He walked across the road in front of the headquarters under the watchful eyes of the human guards. The guards opened the doors for him one after another, fearing that they would stop him for even a second.

Not long after, Sun Yang arrived at the gate in front of the meeting. He straightened his clothes and pushed the door open.

Noisy waves came from inside the conference room. Sun Yang took out the holy bell and condensed a dazzling sunlight gun.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle——!!

The tens-meter-long beam of sunlight that gathered together did indeed stop everyone from arguing. After all, such a bright and large lightning bolt being held in someone's hand was clearly dangerous.

"Thank you all for giving me the opportunity to speak instead of taking the opportunity to yell and shut me up. Has everyone reached any reliable consensus these days?" Sun Yang walked into the meeting room and said sarcastically as if no one was around.

"Sun Yang, thank you for participating. But we seem to have a rule that anyone who fails to arrive after the participation deadline will be automatically deemed to have waived the qualification to attend this meeting." The bald head of the board of directors greeted Sun Yang with a tired look.

"Really? You have to understand that this means I don't have to abide by the long, boring rules you are about to draw up. None of you here are stupid. You know what I can do. It's no use holding me to rules that I don't participate in."

Sun Yang looked around at the people sitting there. It was obvious that the people from XCOM and the Resistance were very excited when they saw Sun Yang come in, and seemed to welcome him.

The Skirmishers had a look on their faces that said, "What the hell are you doing here?"

The attitudes of the Grim Reaper and the Knights Templar were also acceptable, neither welcoming nor rejecting.

The people of the Earth Council looked constipated. All of them had been beaten by the humanoids provided by Sun Yang. And they had all been beaten at least three or four times. Only the bald man had not been beaten hard by Sun Yang's humanoids.

"Hey...just say it. Who can stop you?" The bald man also gave up and transferred the power on the scene to Sun Yang.

"Before you start arguing, I need to sort things out with XCOM. Are my alien alloys and transuranium crystals ready? I haven't had the chance to hand them over yet." Although Sun Yang had already secretly taken a lot of crystals from the warehouse during the meeting, this didn't prevent him from taking bribes a second time. This was all necessary procedure.

"Don't worry, we have prepared our share for you." Commander Lena said. Her face was full of fatigue, but she still forced a smile when she saw Sun Yang.

"Very good, then we can continue our transaction. I have a new list here. These new researchers will be transferred to your spacecraft later to continue their research mission... New technology, a new future..." Sun Yang hadn't finished speaking when he heard an interruption from the Earth Council.

"I want to inform you that XCOM is an organization authorized by the United Nations. It does not have any independent—"

"Quiet! It's not your turn to speak yet. Also, remember to raise your hands next time you want to speak. Have you thrown all your etiquette to elementary school teachers?" Sun Yang fired a soul gun, directly shattering the table in front of the speaker. The speaker's expression immediately turned ugly.

"The world's pattern has long since changed. You no longer have the power to dispatch large quantities of supplies. Besides, I can kill all those who oppose me here, and you will have no ability to resist." Sun Yang looked at these people from the Earth Council. They were the remaining high-level personnel of various countries and were basically the remnants of the old United Nations.

But in the final analysis, they can only operate with their previous identities. They have no personnel, no supplies, no influence, nothing. They can probably act as a stamp machine or be responsible for running an organization.

"But I don't plan to do that right now. I won't do anything to you. There are still many good people in this world, and I respect their beliefs, so I won't take the initiative to clean you up."

"And everyone on the Earth Council, according to records, you haven't successfully won over mutants and aliens, nor have you made any achievements on the front lines. And your rhetoric... is only at the level of boasting in battle reports. So I don't agree with what you say now, do you understand?"

Sun Yang turned his head and looked at these people who were once arrogant but now trembled in fear of death. No one dared to object, which meant they had agreed.

"I don't care what your subsequent regime does. I only care about researchers and technology. So, XCOM, I will continue to cooperate with you, and I also need you to protect all post-war scientists. As for you aliens and mutants... you have two choices."

"First, I and the robot army I brought with me killed them all. Don't even think you can defeat me. I can defeat even the elders. How can you defeat me without the help of the XCOM commander?"

"Second, build a city and make all aliens and mutants live there. Anyone who dares to escape will be killed without mercy. You make your own choice. Of course, not making a choice is also a choice in itself."
