Chapter 394: Mission Update
Chapter 394: Mission Update
"What kind of assistance?"
Su Chen was curious. Could he really summon his subordinates here?
He wondered whether Tanya and Boris existed in this world. If both sides encountered each other, it would be interesting.
"The master can choose to increase the difficulty of the mission, and thus selectively summon Red Alert units. Of course, the rewards will also increase accordingly."
Su Chen's lip twitched. Wasn't this just asking for trouble?
To be honest, Su Chen felt that protecting Alice alone was indeed quite challenging. His current strength was only at the pinnacle of the Seventh Order, while the Superweapons were capable of killing eighth-order experts. If the other side went crazy and decided to use a Superweapon to deal with him, Su Chen didn't think he could withstand it.
His only advantage now was that Alice's identity hadn't been exposed. The opponents were merely after him.
Summoning Red Alert units could provide him with assistance, but it wasn't necessary at the moment.
"Can I choose to summon them during the later stages of the mission?"
"Yes."
Su Chen decisively chose not to summon them. It wasn't necessary at this point. However, at that moment, he sensed something unusual. A considerable number of Allied Forces soldiers were actually surrounding the area!
"Have I been discovered?" Su Chen was quite surprised. He believed his concealment was flawless. How could he be found so easily?
Then he realized that it was likely due to some inherent technology of this world.
After all, this was the world of Red Alert 5. If the technological level was too weak, Su Chen would be contemptuous.
Alice also noticed the situation. Remember, she was an artificial intelligence, and she still had a certain degree of control over the surrounding surveillance systems.
Su Chen was curious about Alice's current state. She was originally an artificial intelligence, yet she had constructed a body for herself and transferred her data into it, forming an entirely new entity similar to a soul.
In fact, Alice couldn't explain it herself. Her current state was a result of her longing for freedom. She had wanted to leave the virtual world, and unexpectedly, she had succeeded.
Even after becoming human, she could still access the network. This situation was quite strange.
"Uncle, the Allied Forces soldiers have discovered us," Alice looked at Su Chen with concern.
With no combat abilities of her own, she could only rely on this mysterious uncle.
"Alice, it's time for you to make a multiple-choice question. Do you think we should boldly walk out and defeat these soldiers on the spot, or should we sneak away quietly?"
Alice blinked. "Can there be a third option?"
"What?"
"Let them go back on their own."
As her voice fell, the entire city's alarm sounded, indicating that there were enemies approaching the city!
Instantly, the Allied Forces soldiers were stunned. Should they catch the fugitive or return to defend the city?
"Order them to return and defend!"
With a single order from above, the Allied Forces soldiers quickly withdrew.
Su Chen was speechless. He had initially wanted to impress Alice, but unexpectedly, the tables had turned.
"Was that alarm just now your doing?" Su Chen asked.
"It was and it wasn't. There really are military forces coming. They're from the Empire of the Rising Sun."
Su Chen was somewhat disappointed. He couldn't open a map here to see the strength of the Empire of the Rising Sun and the Allied Forces.
"Wait a moment, I don't know, but Alice should."
Su Chen was overjoyed and quickly asked Alice about the situation.
Indeed, Alice knew. She said, "In terms of technological power, Allied Forces currently have the strongest technology. However, the Empire of the Rising Sun is catching up, and the difference between the two is minimal. The Soviet Union is actually the weakest, but relatively speaking, the Soviet Union has a powerful subsidiary faction known as the ZG faction. No one expected this subsidiary faction, which wasn't prominent before, to suddenly explode in power. Their technological level has skyrocketed. It's said that the person with the most credit for this is a girl."
Su Chen's expression became odd. He thought of someone. "What's that girl's name?"
"I believe her name is Yun Ru."
Su Chen was speechless. As expected, that name. He hadn't anticipated that a formerly unofficial version of a superunit would appear in the official version.
Of course, it was also possible that in other worlds, Yun Ru was already an official version of the superunit.
From Alice's words, Su Chen learned the general situation of the three major factions. Overall, they were all devoted to developing ship technology. This meant that progress on the surface in terms of various weapons was not as significant as he had imagined.
The three major factions had initially completed their research on ship technology and were currently constructing their first ships. This was a massive project, and given the existing power of this world, it would probably take some time to complete.
Realizing that the surface strength wasn't as formidable as he had imagined, Su Chen felt a sense of relief.
He was grateful that the Yuri faction didn't exist in this world; otherwise, dealing with the Psychic powers of the Yuri faction would be quite tricky.
"Let's go."
Su Chen led Alice, eluding the patrols of many godlike soldiers, and arrived at the edge of the city. However, the Allied Forces soldiers were already on high alert here, and he needed to break through.
Su Chen hadn't forgotten that his mission here was to protect Alice for seven days. Once that was done, he could complete the mission, return to his own world, and obtain the battleship factory building.
Forcing his way through was the lowest-level approach. After thinking for a moment, Su Chen decided to summon some help.
"System, I want to summon Red Alert units."
"Please select the units, and based on your summoning choices, the System will adjust the task content and rewards accordingly. The mission objective remains as Alice."
"Select units, Number One Spy!"
At this moment, the Number One Spy, currently posing as the Mirror King, suddenly disappeared and reappeared in front of Su Chen.
While Number One Spy was inwardly puzzled about how he had arrived here, he didn't show any signs of inquiry. Instead, he saluted directly. "Reporting, Commander."
"Very well. I'll explain the situation here later. For now, tell me how we can get through the blockade ahead?" Su Chen pointed to the situation in front of them, then realized something. "You should change your appearance; there are no mutants here."
Luckily, Su Chen had been wise enough to send Alice away first. Otherwise, Number One Spy's current appearance wouldn't appear remotely human.
Number One Spy's body flickered slightly, and he transformed back into his original appearancea middle-aged man. This was Number One Spy's true appearance.
After Number One Spy had left, the System's voice sounded, "Mission updated: Protect Alice for 15 days and ensure that Alice doesn't sustain serious injuries. Upon completion of the mission, rewards include the battleship factory and scanning simulation imaging technology." (To be continued...)
