Chapter 548 EASA

In the vast underground space, an array of spacecraft units stood erect, forming what looked like a shallow grey steel forest.

Among them were not only spacecraft but also various space stations and rockets.

Sun Jack noticed that the style here was clearly different from the outside, seemingly more reminiscent of the Previous Era's design.

It was even possible that this place, like Lan Meng, originated from the Previous Epoch.

With flames blasting from his back, Sun Jack entered what seemed like a museum of spacecraft units, observing everything before him.

Clearly, now on Earth, aside from Lan Meng who still lived in space, basically no one needed so many flying units anymore.

"AA! Tapai! Get it up and running for me! The quicker, the better!" As AA and Tapai approached, they hacked simultaneously, both online and offline.

While they hacked, Sun Jack wasn't idle. Guided by the nanoworms, everything underground was revealed in his system, including those EASA employees who were rebelling.

Sun Jack began to swiftly eliminate these internal rebels of EASA.

Facing enemies who were significantly more powerful than they were, these people still refused to surrender, resisting by every possible means.

Even when their Combat Prostheses and large combat machines were hacked, they still pulled out guns and kept firing.

Various smart bullets hit Sun Jack without causing the slightest ripple on him.

With a swift motion, Sun Jack swung the weapon in his hand, decapitating two men.

Against Sun Jack, who was experienced in combat and fully armed, these people were no match.

When Sun Jack grabbed a high-ranking manager from next to a console, he didn't bother to waste words. He directly pulled out three data cables from behind him, inserted them into the man's nape, and began brutally extracting memories.

He wasn't the only one doing this. Soon, with the patching together of various memories, the entirety of EASA gradually became transparent to Sun Jack. "There's a central command center! Right near the Radiation well!"

Although EASA's defense system was strong, it clearly couldn't hold up against the surprise attack, and all areas were swiftly overtaken.

The moment Sun Jack breached the central command center, EASA's entire defense system was effectively dead in name and in reality.

As various sensing wires on Tapai's body quickly connected, Digital Personalities and AIs acted at once, swiftly taking over EASA's network and main system.

Just then, a spacecraft began to hover under the influence of the Gravity System, and its electrical systems also progressively activated, entering a standby mode.

Then Sun Jack heard Tapai's voice. "Jack! It's okay on this side! We've reprogrammed it. We can control all spacecraft units now."

"Good, send one up to scout ahead first!" A hundred Clone Sun Jacks swiftly boarded, ready to serve as cannon fodder.

Soon, under the influence of the Gravity System, the colossal Spacecraft Carrier began moving toward the launch well, as wireless charging rapidly provided the energy needed to break Earth's gravity to the spacecraft.

Clearly, this spacecraft was electric, not fueled by oil.

"Stop all meteorological weapons outside! Don't interfere with the launch!"

"5.4.3.2.1." With the countdown ending, the gigantic spacecraft swiftly took off. To everyone's anticipation, it flew into the clouds like a small sun.

Sun Jack, slightly relieved, watched the spacecraft climb higher and higher, finally having the time to light a cigarette. "We've finally..."

However, before he could finish, a fierce laser shot from the left side of the spacecraft, piercing straight into that sun. The next second, the small sun in the sky burst open, forming an even larger fireball.

Under the stunned gaze of all, several Spacecraft Carriers emerged from the clouds, with Sky-base Weapons and various flying units hovering around them.

As the Spacecraft Carriers appeared, Sun Jack, who just occupied EASA, became gradually surrounded, and all the surrounding units bore the FFP logo.

"What's going on! Wasn't Rome under attack by the Himalayas? Why did their corporate troops come here as reinforcements?!" Sun Jack hastily asked.

"Not from there. The combat units of Rome are engaging with Himalayas; Rome is on the verge of falling. They can't possibly send reinforcements here!" Upon hearing this from the Himalayas Think Tank, Sun Jack's heart seized.

If it wasn't reinforcements from Rome, where did these forces come from? There were no reinforcements nearby when he scanned the area before making the move.

"You pull out from there; we suspect it's—fuck!" Communication from the Think Tank cut off abruptly.

"What happened? What's going on in Rome? Answer me!!"

Sun Jack urgently asked what was happening in Rome, but there were no more responses.

And at that moment, the system showed that the global network had been disconnected; the entire network had been completely blocked. The whole area was completely cut off from everywhere else.

At that moment, with EASA at the center, nearby cement cities began to fracture, and silver Liquid Metal surged out like a turbulent tide, completely engulfing them from the surface as well.

"Fuck!" As Sun Jack's system screen quickly compared the current battle data, the launch rate dropped drastically. Launching now was akin to inviting destruction, with each vessel being shot down as quickly as they were launched.

"Sun Jack, I didn't expect to find you here; that saves me the trouble of searching," a mechanical voice sounded in Sun Jack's ear, the system displaying the ID: it-z.

"Don't bother contacting the Himalayas, they've got a big surprise waiting for them too."

At that moment, the figure's image popped up—a dog's face, to be precise, pixelated facial features projected on a triangular screen with translucent dog ears floating in mid-air.

"The bounty the corporation has put on you is quite high; to think I'd be the one to claim it, I really am lucky," it-z exclaimed with evident excitement upon seeing Sun Jack in the video.

"Cut it out, you're probably celebrating too soon; I'm just a Clone," Sun Jack said, feigning nonchalance, while his mind raced for a way out.

"It doesn't matter whether you're a clone. If not here, then in Rome, either way, it's my credit, you can't escape."

As it-z waved his hand lightly, the surrounding Liquid Metal surged like a tide, flooding the interior of EASA's Radiation well, as the Spacecraft Carriers launched a full-scale attack around them.
