He flipped the switch, and the feeling of the toilet flushing immediately hit him.
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare
62 Wow! It’s a civilized world!
"A father shouldn't lose his son. It goes against the laws of nature. Without descendants, there is no future. I have spent my entire life fighting against ignorance and cowardice, just for a better world."
"There, good people can develop and prosper without fear. I know how high the cost is, and I can accept it, but I cannot accept this fact."
"Will's tragedy will not be in vain, I promise you that. His death is not the end, but a beginning."
A man with extraordinary aura stared directly at the camera, speaking forcefully to the countless people outside the camera.
The screen shook and flashed a few times, the video ended, and automatically played to the next related video.
In the new video, a reporter is reporting the latest news.
"...After two days of bloody fighting, the U.S. Marines finally drove North Korean forces out of Seoul. With the arrival of more reinforcements, we can finally see peace and stability restored to the region..."
"Full of fucking bullshit."
Sun Yang turned off his phone and stretched.
When he first arrived in this world, Sun Yang thought he was dazzled. The surrounding buildings were not fantasy backgrounds, nor were they shabby, but complete modern buildings.
He landed in a small alley in a slum, surrounded by garbage bags with sewage flowing in. One bag was untied, and rusty metal needles and spoiled food were scattered all over the floor.
But at least there are still people throwing garbage, and the building next to it is not even half gone.
Long live the civilized world! Sun Yang, wearing power armor, quickly changed on the spot, changed into a coat suitable for the outside temperature, put on a soft bulletproof vest under the coat, and waded out from the sea of garbage bags.
He then walked around the slums, pulled out his gun and exchanged blows with three or four thugs who were about to rob him, forcing them to hand over their cell phones and money.
While browsing the fresh and unfamiliar city around him, Sun Yang took out his mobile phone to collect information about the world.
Then Sun Yang happened to see a breaking news recommendation on a certain video software.
The Atlas boss appeared on screen, his grief evident.
Sun Yang clicked on the video and recognized this imposing man at a glance.
Irons, the main character of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. A charismatic boss, nicknamed "Godfather" by players.
Sun Yangyun had played this game once before, and he felt the flow of the game was a bit strange. How could the boss, who was so powerful at the beginning, suddenly become so weak later on?
Irons possesses the most advanced war equipment and the world's largest standing armed force even in the early stages of the game. Furthermore, this armed force does not belong to any country. It is a force that can be hired.
In addition to having a strong armed force, Atlas has also built infrastructure in South Korea, Syria, Sierra Leone and Nigeria to help local people rebuild their homes.
Sun Yang had searched on his phone and found reports of these events in the news. He searched for information from locals in these countries and discovered that after only a few years, Atlas had redeveloped the region, and life quickly returned to normal. Living standards improved noticeably.
From this perspective, the company's efficiency is actually very high.
{The following content contains spoilers for the original plot, about a few hundred words, so if you don't want to know, you can skip a few pages.}
In the original game, the plot can be simply summarized as the protagonist Mitchell, who lost his arm, joins Atlas and is given an experimental neural prosthetic arm, allowing him to rejoin the battle.
The main storyline focuses on dealing with KVA terrorists and eliminating them. In the middle part, Mitchell learns that his boss is secretly engaged in biological and chemical weapons, so he directly rebels against his boss and rejoins the US military.
Let's be honest, you've been bullying other countries before. Are you so anxious about researching biological weapons? You dare to say that the Americans haven't developed biological weapons? That's incomprehensible!
As a result, Mitchell ran away without saying a word and opened fire on his former teammates in an instant. It's really unheard of.
What follows is that the protagonist follows the orders of the US military and tries to destroy the biological and chemical weapons, but it is useless. Irons still goes to attack the Golden Gate Bridge of the United States and uses an elite team to severely damage the aircraft carrier fleet.
And then? Then, inexplicably, Atlas was about to be surrounded and attacked. Where was the most powerful standing army that was promised?
Atlas' headquarters was in Baghdad. Not long after it was rebuilt, the US military rushed in and bombed it to pieces.
Seeing that Baghdad could no longer be defended, Atlas released the DNA virus in his own city - please note that the company's employees and local citizens were not in any trouble, only the attackers were defeated.
To be honest, when watching this passage, Sun Yang felt that there was nothing to say about its use. This was used to resist enemy attacks, not to kill civilians.
After all, both sides of the conflict certainly have biological weapons, so we can only evaluate the methods and purposes of their use.
Then...the protagonist and his teammates drove two castrated versions of ASTs back into Baghdad and took down the Atlas headquarters...a very American heroic plot.
Irons then captured Mitchell. Although he had killed a large number of his own men, Irons did not kill Mitchell out of nostalgia and chose to let him fend for himself.
At the end, Mitchell catches up with Irons, cuts off his own arm, and lets Irons fall into the sea of fire. The play ends.
To be honest, compared to Mitchell from a certain perspective, Sun Yang feels that Irons is more responsible and has more backbone.
Ains, the literal boss of Atlas Corporation, controls the most powerful mercenary company in the world and has technology that is more than ten years ahead of the outside world.
What's even more exaggerated is that these technologies have not even leaked out. The Atlas company has not been interfered with by other powerful military groups, and all power is firmly controlled by Ains.
But Sun Yang valued the cities governed by his company more than anything else: the people there were living quite well. At least in Baghdad, the people seemed to be doing quite well. They had been well governed for just two years.
Not to mention rebuilding the infrastructure of the destroyed cities... There must be no vested interests involved in this matter, otherwise the American capitalists would have put on a good show and sent people in to do the work.
In the original work, a character who was defined as a villain was actually able to properly build infrastructure? How could such a person be labeled a villain?
Look at what Irons prepared for the protagonist: an experimental arm worth millions. And what about the US military? They just retired it.
Sun Yang has seen enough of the miserable lives of American veterans. He wonders if things will change in this world dominated by American influences.
"...The US military, oh US military, you have to stand up for yourself. Otherwise, I might have some special ideas... To be honest, I have some ideas now, but I am somewhat hesitant... What if you become human beings?" Sun Yang muttered to himself and searched for content related to veterans and retired soldiers.
"Veterans' parade...Retired soldiers died from drug overdose...Disabled veterans picked up scraps..." Sun Yang searched for a long time, but could not find any news that could help the veterans find a place to rest.
Late or delayed subsidies are simply not enough to live on. Veterans who have lost a limb can only do simple tasks, are ridiculed by others, and eventually commit suicide at home.
So the military-industrial interest groups have not changed at all... As expected, no matter how the world changes, no matter how the media whitewashes it, the facts are there.
I continued to scroll through the news. The rest of the news was about a wealthy businessman holding a grand party with extravagant scenes.
These people raised their glasses to each other and laughed heartily, as if something good had happened.
Sun Yang searched again for news about reconstruction in the war-torn areas. Nothing. No restoration of livelihoods, no post-war reconstruction.
It can't be blocked. These wealthy businessmen are running a fake charity event, spending more on publicity than on donations, and they're just trying to gild their own reputation.
So, the truth is probably very simple. These people did nothing.
A small amount of anger spread in Sun Yang's heart. He couldn't describe this anger. Before his mind could organize the words, this anger was ignited.
Who made these veterans homeless? Who bullied them? Who broke their promises? Who promised to take care of them and now is breaking their promise?
There are some people, a group of people, who regard soldiers as wealth. They write lists that include thousands of dollars for a cup of coffee, but are unwilling to use the money to help the soldiers fighting for freedom and democracy.
Some people send soldiers out just to get budget kickbacks, orders, and gain greater benefits.
Besides? There's no other reason. This is just bullshit for the little brats. Profit, profit alone, is the driving force.
These people, with high-sounding words, shed batch after batch of lives in foreign lands, and when these remaining lives returned, they were thrown away like rags.
They were never important; there, they were just batches of insignificant pawns, just a link in a cycle, a part of the price that could be paid.
The harvest was swallowed by some people, who nodded in satisfaction, threw the rag to the side of the road, and asked for a new piece of cloth.
These people who control huge wealth are high above, looking down on everyone else. Sometimes they compete, but more often they work together, acting for bigger, longer-term, and more favorable interests, carrying out one dirty business after another.
But such an understanding is too superficial. The faces of those who boast openly are disgusting enough, but there are still countless people who have not been exposed by the media and are manipulating countless amounts of money behind the scenes.
However, they are unwilling to hand over their profits to the groups that generate profits for them. Of course, why would they be willing to do so?
Their lower-level employees are not capable of fighting against the huge group, and those at higher levels are already sharing the residue that leaks out from between their fingers.
Those who got to eat the leftovers were naturally extremely satisfied. They spontaneously safeguarded the interests of the group and became loyal dogs.
It's not just the military industry, there are many, many more... Exploitation and monopoly are emerging in all walks of life, and the people at the bottom can only live in dire straits.
To be honest, Sun Yang didn't understand the messy economics. All those charts, trends, and analysis were enough to make his head spin. He just needed to understand one thing.
The interest groups get everything they want, while the people who generate the profits only get a little. The value they create far exceeds the wages they receive.
As long as this point exists, any other reasons are pale and powerless.
Some things used to just be vented to the air, or typed away on the keyboard, outputting completely useless words and grievances. Often, in the end, it only tortured one's spirit in vain.
What's the reason? Perhaps it's because I can't do anything except talk about it. Because, because...
Because you can't kill them all.
"I understand..." Sun Yang was filled with anger. Some frantic thoughts emerged in his mind.
What can I do? What should I do? What do I need to do? What are my thoughts?
What should I do to follow my heart about these extremely evil people who directly and indirectly caused the deaths of a large number of people, these incompetent people, these arrogant and annoying nobles?
Sure enough, he still has to be killed.
There's no need to lie to yourself and say you want to go somewhere else. Maybe what the news says is fake.
I just don't like them!
I must kill them!
Sun Yang's mind was distracted for a while. If he could make use of the power of the humanoids on his side, such a thing could be done.
At least, killing hundreds of them would be no problem. The most important thing was the preliminary preparations, to come up with a list of those to be killed, as well as their social circles and schedules.
Fortunately, I have a network security expert who is ahead of this era, and M4, the electronic expert.
Besides that, they also needed someone who could reasonably protect the local people. Although Sun Yang wanted to kill them all, he also knew that if he killed all the leaders, society would be in turmoil.
Sun Yang knew full well that he had no management skills and was prone to getting people executed in a fit of rage. Rather than leaving a mess behind, it would be better to find someone willing to shoulder the responsibilities before starting anything.
Hmm? Speaking of which, it seems Irons originally intended to target the US. I heard the plot was changed, but if he also wanted to target the Americans, then that would be a deal.
Irons is a man who will actually attack infrastructure; he wouldn't kill or injure civilians to achieve victory. So there's still something to discuss.
It had to be Ains. He had to get in touch with him first. It wasn't too late. There was still a chance to save the world. There was still something he could do.
Sun Yang left the slums, and he needed to make some preparations. Fortunately, he knew how to contact Irons - if he could share some technology or introduce a few powerful soldiers, he would probably be interested.
It seems that Irons' robotic arm is still under development. I think the high-tech prosthetic arm in the KENSHI world can be arranged soon.
63 Anton A Dream! Save me!
Even though you might talk big and think big, you still have to eat your food one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. Foreplay is necessary to enjoy the moment, and even the most impressive plans are planned.
Many things require preparation, and the preparation for preparation is to get some money.
This is a bit of a dilemma. Where can I find some money? It seems that no matter which one I choose, it will be very troublesome and difficult to deal with.
Isn't there a quick and easy way to do this without getting caught?! I'm already guarding so many cute, pretty, and gorgeous dolls!
[So this is why you, Professor, asked us to print fake money?] The portrait of Antonina, the Oasis cybersecurity expert, appeared in the window.
There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version
"Theoretically, that's real money. They're mainly buying daily necessities, new game consoles, and books. I'm sure everyone has a lot of things they want to buy. The girls and boys at home are currently using things they found in the trash. I think this is terrible."
"After all, there are so many things missing from the base right now. Look here, you can buy anything."
"Wouldn't this risk exposure? Professor, if you were wanted here, it would be very troublesome. You can't just fight your way out all the time."
"These are minor matters. Prison is not a big deal. The main issue is that the only thing to drink on the base is cactus juice, which is really weird."
"You're right, Professor. I'm deeply aware of the importance of this matter. Professor, please give me the local currency and the local communication equipment first." Antonina, who had no desire to drink the cactus juice at all, reached out to Sun Yang.
Sun Yang threw the change he had just received and his cell phone to Antonina and asked another question.
"By the way, Antonina, with your ability, it shouldn't be difficult to get some money from the electronic bank, right?"
Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to erase traces like in some novels. Taking money is a small matter, but erasing the record of theft is difficult, and it would be very troublesome if the authorities could track the whereabouts of the money. It would be better to print some money and spend it quickly.
Antonina looked at the banknotes for a few seconds, then picked up the phone and operated it skillfully.
[Although I have seen this many times, Professor, your body is truly amazing. You will not believe that I can search for information about your world using my phone.]
"I think some of you mentioned before that my body can transmit signals across the world or something like that."
To explain it in terms that ordinary people can understand, your body is like a tiny hole connecting two worlds. The only things that can pass through the hole are things like electromagnetic signals.
"Wait, won't our base be discovered by the people here?" Sun Yang panicked when he heard about the interconnection. He hadn't had to worry about these issues in the world of the end of the United States he had visited before, but this world was a very normal modern society.
