Chapter 244 Kane and Tiberium Mine
"Advent Children Project? What is that?" After recovering from the influence of a large group of twintails, Josie asked about the so-called Advent Children Project.
Advent Son? How does this sound a bit like a 3D area, oh, it's the story of a certain game of Foot Pot Chicken.
Shinra Research Center, foot pot chicken? It can't be such a coincidence, can it?
"That's it!" Just as Josie was thinking wildly, Yuri moved his hands, and two holographic images appeared on the console in front of him.
Both images are culture pods.
However, one of the training cabins is filled with people, and the other is filled with a huge blue crystal.
However, the person in the training barn is not a long-haired angel with wings as Josie expected, but a bald middle-aged white man like Yuri. At first glance, he thought he was Yuri's brother.
"...This is not your copy, is it? It doesn't look like it!" Josie couldn't help joking.
"...Of course not, his name is Kane—he is an old friend of mine!" Yuri said angrily.
"Wait? You said his name is Kane? Kane, the leader of the NOD Brotherhood?" Hearing the name, Josie was stunned.
Yes, if Yuri hadn't mentioned the name of Kane, Josie would have almost forgotten that the story of the Red Alert series is not just an ordinary earth world that changed history, but another very important series. Prequel, or parallel time and space.
This series is Command and Conquer: Tiberium series.
And Kane is the biggest villain in this series, and his status is comparable to that of Yuri in Red Alert 2.
More importantly, this is an existence that is even more exaggerated than Yuri.
Because of Yuri's main story, the most important thing is Red Alert 2.
Kane, on the other hand, has appeared as a bearded consultant since the first generation of the Red Police in 1950. He has a higher status in Mao Xiong than Yuri, and he instigated the bearded man to launch a world war, and he floated after the war. and go.
When he appeared again, it was already the first story of the Tiberium series in 1995, when Tiberium Dawn happened.
And when the Tiberium story continued until 2062 in the fourth Tiberium twilight, Kane was still active on the earth as the leader of the NOD Brotherhood, and his appearance has not changed much.
That is to say, Kane has lived for at least a century from the 1950s to the 2160s without getting old. This is not something ordinary humans can do.
Therefore, it is not without reason for Cain's followers to think that he is Cain in human legends.
But if the one in this training cabin is Kane, then the one in the other training cabin...
"This thing can't be a Tiberium crystal, right?" Josie looked at the holographic image of the blue crystal, and couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"You really know it!" Hearing Josie call out the name, Yuri nodded without any surprise.
If Kane is the most important character in the Tiberium series, then this Tiberium crystal is an important prop in the entire plot series.
This thing is not a product of the earth, nor is it a regular crystal substance that looks the same on the surface.
Rather, it is a strange non-carbon-based cosmic substance with dual properties of plants and minerals that came to the earth with meteorites. It has various forms such as crystals, plants, and algae colonies—very well, although people are not that person, but things But they all come from outer space.
Because this substance can absorb metals and minerals in the soil for purification, making these substances easier to process and store.
Thus in the Tiberium era, Tiberium crystals became a unique resource at that time.
Kane and the Brotherhood of NOD under his control are able to compete with the Global Defense Organization (GDI), which is jointly formed by countries all over the world, precisely because they have mastered nearly half of the world's Tiberium mines and its development technology. of giants.
However, the use of this peculiar substance is not without cost.
Tiberium substances are extremely toxic, and can rapidly spread throughout the world by relying on self-replication like a virus.
It is precisely because of the appearance of Tiberium substances that the earth in the Tiberium series has only gone to the point where it is completely unsuitable for human survival after only a few decades of development.
It’s just that shouldn’t this thing land on Earth in 95 years? And why was such a hidden boss like Kane locked up in the training cabin by the Sun Empire?
You must know that although the technology of Red Alert 3 is very advanced, the actual age is still in 1989, which is far from 95 years when the Tiberium series started.
But as soon as this doubt arose, Josie thought of a possibility.
"Time machine!" X2 was Yuri who saw Josie's doubts, and said the biggest possibility in a timely manner.
Yes, although Red Alert 1 belongs to the prequel of Tiberium, but in Red Alert 2, because the time machine is constantly being abused, the timeline has actually begun to completely deviate, forming a completely independent new time and space, And Yuri is the most brilliant one in that time and space.
When it comes to Red Alert 3, the history of the entire world has changed beyond recognition.
Moreover, the rise of the Sun Empire in Red Alert 3 has always been a mystery among the Red Alert community.
Especially with such unreasonable black technology.
But this thing happened.
However, if there is an Empire of the Sun who obtained Kane and Tiberium crystals due to the change of time and space, then everything that happened in the world of Red Alert 3 will make sense... The Empire of the Sun has the same feelings as Yuri , also opened and hung up.
It's just a pity that the rising sun empire is not as big as Yuri's.
Now everything in it belongs to Yuri.
"I never thought that this former old friend would actually become an experimental product of the Rising Sun Empire, but it's pretty good, hahahahahaha!" Speaking of Kane's fate, Yuri sighed first, and then What came was incomparable pleasure.
Although the two are old acquaintances, Yuri hates Kane to death.
Because the timeline of Yuri’s rise in Red Alert 2 is the timeline of Mao Bear’s failure after he launched a world war under the leadership of Big Beard, the plot of Red Alert 2 is already Mao Xiong’s second rise and war once again after being dismantled by the United States. The plot, and Yuri, who had been silent for a long time, also took the opportunity to take the lead during this period.
Yuri did not agree with Beard to start the war back then, but the culprit who instigated Beard to start the war and dragged the bear into the abyss of failure was the mysterious consultant of Beard, who is now Kane in the training cabin.
As a staunch supporter and admirer of Beard, how could Yuri not hate Kane?
Red Alert 2 Yuri's revenge is not his own revenge, but the revenge of the bearded man who was defeated and killed, and Mao Xiong's first destruction.
"Congratulations, you finally got revenge!" Josie, who knew the specific situation, congratulated at the right time.
"I still have to thank you, if it wasn't for your reminder, I wouldn't have encountered such a big fish!" Yuri said with emotion, "How is it? Are you interested?"
"Speaking of which, what's so special about Kane? It can't really be Cain, right? And what is this so-called Advent Children Project?" Josie couldn't help asking.
"It's really special. Don't look at his appearance, he seems to be about the same age as me, but according to what I have collected and the information obtained by the Sun Empire, he has lived for at least several centuries, and has super physical strength and strength. Combat power, and the Advent Son Project, in fact, is the same as the Yuriko Project, it is a human strengthening plan, but the difference is that the Yuriko Project is a copy, while the Advent Son Project is a gene transplant!" Yuri explained.
"Gene transplantation? Why not clone like Lily?" Josie was puzzled.
"Because it can't be cloned. Unlike Yuriko, who has a strong mental ability, his body genes are not much different from human beings, and it is relatively easy to clone. Although Kane also has certain mental abilities, he is essentially a genetic enhancer. His genes are very special. , it’s not just that the Sun Empire’s technology can’t do cloning, I tried it before, but it didn’t work, basically the clones will start to collapse at the initial stage.” Yuri shook his head and said.
"But transplanting is possible?" Josie took the conversation curiously.
"That's right, although it can't be cloned, the Sun Empire has also discovered that by mixing his genes with a substance of this Tiberium crystal, there is a certain success rate of being able to transplant his genes Into the body of ordinary people, let ordinary people also have superhuman strength. I have verified its level, which is stronger than our super soldier potion. They may have to suffer a lot from their actions, and there is a special benefit that I think may exist..."
"Live long?" Josie asked tentatively.
"That's right!" Yuri confirmed, "It's just that the earliest successful transplanted experimental body is only three years old, so it can't be fully verified yet."
"...It sounds wonderful, but I guess this has a certain success rate, maybe it's not high at all?" Josie said with a half-smile.
"Hahaha, you guessed it right, just like the original super soldier potion, the success rate of this kind of transplant is terribly low, almost one in ten thousand, and I don't know if it's because Kane is white, Basically all successful subjects are also white, and one of them named Claude was able to adapt to Kane's genes almost perfectly." Yuri nodded and confirmed, "It is precisely because of this that Shengyang After the Empire launched the war, it captured a large number of white people from various countries as experimental subjects—especially Judah, tsk tsk, speaking of which, you didn’t see that scene.”
"I didn't see it, but I can think of it!"
Hearing Yuri talk about this, Josie immediately remembered what the foot pot chicken did during World War II, and a cold look appeared on his face.
"By the way, let me tell you another thing. I am in the Sun Empire, but I have dropped more than twenty nuclear bombs...all of which are of high yield, but this is the limit. If there are more, not only a few islands If it can’t be kept, it will affect the surrounding area.” Seeing Josie’s expression, Yuri also said at the right time.
"Really? This is the best news I heard today!" Hearing that Yuri said that twenty high-yield nuclear bombs had been lost, Josie immediately became interested.
"Hahahaha, I know you like this, I'll trade the video to you later." Yuri laughed.
It can be said that because of what happened in the Red Alert world, both Josie and Yuri were extremely happy today.
"But to be honest, you have to be careful with this Tiberium mine, or the consequences will be unimaginable... This stuff, it shouldn't have been leaked, right?" After talking about the happy things, Josie returned to the whole, looked at The eyes of Tiberium crystals brought a trace of worry.
"The bad news is that it has indeed been leaked, but there is also good news, that is, the scope of its spread is not large, and it is only limited to the mainland of the Sun Empire, and my behavior of dropping the nuclear bomb has affected its spread to some extent. It has been suppressed—the environment after the nuclear explosion, its vitality has been reduced to the extreme, and the Sun Empire has developed some methods to detect and control it, after I conduct upgrade research, it should be able to control it!" Hearing Josie's words , Yuri said indifferently.
But Josie could still see a trace of hesitation on Yuri's face.
Obviously, the proliferation crisis of Tiberium mines may not be as simple as Yuri said.
"Actually, don't worry too much. With your help, I have already mastered the long-distance spaceflight capability. Even if I really can't restrain the spread of Tiberium, I still have enough time to build new human settlements on the moon or Mars. Even discover new things about the planet where human beings live." Yuri added that he is quite optimistic about this matter.
Josie heard the same thing. With the continuous application of Cybertron technology, their technological level is already sufficient for initial interstellar migration. It is just because of the lack of planetary transformation technology that the cost of this initial interstellar migration will be high. And it won't be very comfortable.
But survival, there is still no problem.
It will take at least seven or eighty years for Tiberium to spread until the environment is completely destroyed, which is enough for Yuri to do a lot of things.
It really doesn’t work. Isn’t there still a trader here? Can Josie help me with plane migration?
"By the way, I just talked about my affairs, and I haven't asked why you are looking for me!" After talking about his own affairs, Yuri asked Josie.
"I have discovered a new plane, a plane with extraordinary potential, but now my trading partner is in a little trouble, so I need to borrow a few people from you...the absolutely reliable one!" Josie said that he introduced the Star Wars plane and Anakin's situation in detail.
