Trantor: 549690339
It was Harrison rk who first discovered her sessful imntation. That day, as usual, the two yed two games of chess, taking an hour in total. As Harrison rk’s chess skills improved, it became increasingly difficult for Nora Camp to precisely control their games.
It was difficult for her to control her moves as well as she did in the past. Often, she would unintentionally exert too much force while pondering her calctions, forgetting to control the amount of ck she gave him, and quickly defeating Harrison rk within a few moves.
In both games, Harrison rk lost before reaching the endgame.
As they finished, Harrison rkined, “I’m feeling more and more left out of these games. Can you please control yourself a little more, let mest a bit longer?”
Nora Camp shook her head and smiled, checking her watch as she said, “I had good control. You admitted defeat in thirty minutes and eight seconds and thirty minutes and six seconds, respectively.”
Harrison rk was silent for a long time, finally whispering, “You mean you calcted not only the chessboard but also my psychological changes?” Nora Camp suddenly looked up, her eyes bursting with unprecedented confidence, “Yes. I think I had an epiphany yesterday.”
“You had an epiphany?”
“What do you mean by that?” the General frowned.
“No, nothing, it’s just a bit surprising,” Harrison rk managed to hide his astonishment.
He thought that logic and the mysterious epiphany were ipatible, making it strange for someone like Nora Camp to mention it.
It seemed Nora Camp was a bit angry, “If you don’t believe me, I’ll challenge the Intelligent Al again. You should know what level my chess skills were at before, right?”
“You used to lose to Al by three points, no more, no less, with the same result every time,” he said.
“Yes.”
Two hours passed.
In this long-awaited battle between man and machine, Nora Camp lost by just one point.
Harrison rk’s mouth hung open, “Did the Al hold back?”
“Of course not!”
“Then you really have improved.”
Nora Camp snapped her fingers, “Come on, let’s celebrate.”
As she prepared to lead Harrison rk inside, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He broke free of Nora Camp’s hand, “Before we deal with that, you should go check if you’re pregnant.”
After checking, it was indeed the case.
As they left the infirmary, Nora Camp asked Harrison rk how he knew.
He smiled and merely said it was a wild guess.
Of course, he knew the real reason, but now was not the time to reveal it. After returning to his dorm, Harrison rk suddenly remembered that he forgot to do his main task that day.
Since imntation had already urred, missing today’s opportunity meant waiting for the next life.
He felt a bit regretful, but he could still ept it.
Harrison rk began to look through arge amount of information, preparing his persuasive spiel. The uing conversation with Nora Camp would be crucial for determining sess or failure.
Meanwhile, as Harrison rk immersed himself in his schemes, Nora Camp was using her newfound abilities to wreak havoc in the war simtion system training formanding officers.
In addition to holographic simtion training for soldiers, deputymanders, captains, andmanders of fleets also have their own simtion training systems.
Nora Camp’s ranking in themander simtion training system has always been in the top ten, never dropping.
Today, an unsuspectingmander opened the training system to randomly match an opponent, expecting to enjoy a one-sided beating and improve his mood before going to sleep, while also slightly raising his ranking.
He was matched with Nora Camp, who was in the top ten.
Initially, he was a bit nervous, but soon calmed down and felt an intense fighting spirit.
Competing against a strong opponent greatly improved one’s own skills; even a defeat could bring benefits.
Less than 20 minutes into the simtion, the brother, fully focused onmanding his forces, was suddenly dered the loser.
Hismand gship had been destroyed.
It took three or four reys of the footage for him to find the reason.
At some point, Nora Camp had hidden a massive mine in the area of intense engagement between the two sides.
Following that, she fired a barrage of shots, the light and energy fluctuations of thesers masking the mine’s presence, allowing it to stealthily approach. She used the barrage to create interference, disturbing detection equipment and the intense changes in formation to distract the enemy’s attention. Finally the mine, with enough power to destroy a gship, revealed its Trickster Mine-style attack.
The loss was not unjustified.
After watching his own footage, themander returned to the lobby only to receive news of another battle.
A top-five-ranked expert in the entire army had also been defeated.He checked the time, only fifteen minutes had passed.
This expert had lost even faster than him.
So, the two of them studied the video together.
Twenty minutester, another top ten excellentmander in the army also quickly fell.
The three of them exchanged their findings and discovered that Nora Camp’s tactics for defeating opponents were different each time.
Her style ofbat had be more diverse, sometimes fierce and sometimes vicious.
She was not only able to use exquisite operations to quickly erode her opponent’s military strength in frontal battles, but also deploy precarious troop maneuvers to make her own gship appear suddenly in the heart of the enemy’s formation, annihting themand battleship with a single blow. Nora Camp’s personal strength seemed to have broken through the bottleneck overnight, bing as unfathomable as Harrison rk, who was unparalleled in the field of individual soldier strength.
Subsequently, the threemanders simply formed a team and jointly challenged Nora Camp.
One hourter, they looked at each other in disbelief.
They attacked Nora Camp with three times the military strength, but in the end, thebined r<sub>5</sub>o battleships of the three were all annihted. Nora Camp only lost 13 ships destroyed and 17 damaged in the process.
But it didn’t stop there.
Nora Camp immediately issued a public challenge, inviting teams of four to fight against her with four times the military strength.
The simted battle continued.
Eventually, Nora Camp lost to an opponent with seven times her military strength.
This was an unprecedented situation since the invention of themander simtion training method.
The next day, Harrison rk had just gotten out of bed when he was called by Nora Camp who was waiting outside his door. The two of them took a shuttle to the space station located on the outer edge of geosynchronous orbit.
The giant space station, which can amodate millions of people, exhausted human resources and was the highest technological achievement of mankind. It is also the true headquarters of the military and the World Government.
The two of them were received by the leader and promoted at the same time.
Harrison rk was promoted to Colonel, while Nora Camp became the youngest Major General in decades.
Harrison rk was confused the whole time until Nora Camp casually showed him the appointment letter, only then did he find out what had happenedst night.
He couldn’t help but secretly marvel at what she had done to others.
General Camp’s improvement was too terrifying.
Just by slightly awakening her emotional instincts, hermand ability had soared to such an extent.
Humans truly have amazing potential for war.
In the lush-tree-filled residential area of the space station, the two of them sat together on therge terrace of a cafe.
Down below were peopleing and going.
Aircraft shuttled to and fro in front of the terrace.
Above the transparent canopy was the eternal and glittering starry sky. Gazing at an oblique angle, they could see the massive sun and Mercury, and Venus.
The sunlight was not dazzling, as a sr energy transmission film as thin as a cicada’s wing but incrediblyrge, covered the sky of the space station.
Further out in space, there were evenrger sr energy films.
This film wrapped around the Earth in aplete circle, its orbit almost perpendicr to the Earth’s orbit.
From a distance, the film appeared to trail backward, looking like a stretched and deformed Saturn ring, or aet tail that had been chopped down to only half its length.
The sr film technology, which is a culmination of Dr. Sergey’s research achievements, haspletely reced fossil fuels and nuclear fission and fusion energy sources, bing the most important primary energy supply source for humans.
“A friend of mine ising over soon. She wants to talk to me. We’ll go back to the base together after our talk. The fleet will set off next week, so we won’t be able to return to Earth by then.”
Nora Camp took a bite of her sweet and gooey strawberry cheesecake, flicked with her fingers, and a holographic chessboard appeared on the table, “Take advantage of this free time, want to y another round?”
Harrison rk shook his head, “No.”
“Why not?”
“I won’t be ying chess with you in the future.”
“What do you mean?”
“You shouldn’t y chess either in the future.”
“Hmm?”
Harrison rk leaned forward, looking down at her, “The friend who’sing to see you should be Martha, right? She’s noticed your change. I think you should also be aware of your own transformation. You’re not the same as before.”
Nora Camp was silent for a long time, “Yes.”
“Think about your old self, and think about the defeated opponents of the past few days. What’s the biggest difference between you and them?”
Harrison rk began asking questions one after another..
