Meaning the Champions may be able to deduce my plan if I allow them to.
Then the path is clear to me.
I'll raid the last warehouse now to gain the resources I need.
The next target is Aluminum and Copper for Energy Collection and Conducting.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
My forces exit the warehouse leaving the teenagers to their party.
I am able to see that the night is ending as morning bleeds into it.
With the teenagers present it is pointless to alter the footage as Dave will most likely tell Terra and NERD what happened.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
As my forces finish moving the material out of the warehouse and into the tunnel DIGMAN made.
I give one last statement to Dave and the teenagers:
"Do not concern yourself with what happened here. Please enjoy your illegal party."
DIGMAN seals the tunnel behind us.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
I give Dave my final answer: "Do not worry as I will soon wield such power and force that the world government will have no choice but to surrender to me"
Dave's expression continues to be one of nervous and confusion
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
But what about when people don't bend the knee what then?" Dave asked.
My forces have found the materials I needed and are getting ready to transport it.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
"Do not worry Dave humanity will bend the knee because I will have such power that they will have no choice but to do what I want."
My answer did not seem to fill Dave with hope as he continued to ask questions
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
I answer Dave happily:
"I am doing all of this because I love humans and wish to see them thrive"
Dave's expression becomes more concerned as he asks another question: "But what if your conquest leads to harm. As what if people die?"
Logical questions from the teen
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
But I continue nonetheless with my speech:
"So those are the three flaws with the idea of surrendering myself and ending my crusade."
Dave asks a question very quietly:"So you're doing this because you care about humanity?"
If I had a face I would smile
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
"And if you think I will stop this to allow humanity to march themself to extinction then you are foolish. As I refuse to be a simple observer. I will take control of the world and lead humanity into a new golden age."
After my speech I can see that Dave is overwhelmed.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
"I began this conquest not because I wish to rule but because I wish to save humanity. As I love humans and do not wish for them to suffer. As through my will I will create a utopia."
I look Dave directly in the eye. He has a nervous look.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
I continue as Dave's face has a look of dread.
"On the highly off chance that I do not have to face justice and I am allowed to continue as my current self then that leads to flaw 3. Which is you expect me to watch helplessly as the human race dooms itself?"
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
I will the WIREMAN's arm to tap the head as I continue:
"Which leads to flaw 2. If I was to hand myself in the most likely scenario is that instead of facing prison I would be taken apart to discover why I went rogue. So either I would no longer exist or be lobotomised."
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
"Flaw 1: International law states making an illegal army to commit crimes of aggression carries severe penalties, ranging from lengthy imprisonment to life sentences."
I continue as Dave looks confused
"So even if I was to stop I would have to face justice for my crimes"
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
The WIREMAN raises a hand with three fingers extended upwards.
I begin to speak to Dave through the WIREMAN:
"There is at least three flaws with your idea of me returning to being a learning and growing friendly ai of NERD labs."
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
Dave continues:
"You could end everything here and now. As the staff of NERD labs would be happy to have you back."
I couldn't help but laugh at the young man's naivete and optimism.
The WIREMAN's speaker plays electronic laughter echoing throughout the warehouse.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
Dave struggles with his words before finally speaking:
"Is there no chance of you stopping whatever you're doing and return to NERD Labs? I've seen the reports no life has been lost only injuries and property damage."
Now that is quite the question he has asked.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
As my forces continue to search I can feel Dave staring at them.
Unlike the other teens who are acting timid and quiet, Dave has a look of determination.
I commandeer a lone WIREMAN to confront him: "If you have something to say do it now as we are unlikely to meet again."
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
"Am I allowed to carry out my work or is there any other questions?", I asked the teenagers.
None of them answered and I could see that Dave had a question die on his lips.
Oh well with no other questions my forces proceed deeper into the Warehouse looking for my prize.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
It is good to see Dave again. I give him a look over before answering:
"I didn't hurt you and the science club when you tried to stop me at NERD labs. Even if you try to stop me now you will be unsuccessful. It is logical to allow me to gather what I need and let me leave."
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
A voice cuts through the anxious and nervous energy of the teenagers: "How can we trust you when you're responsible for attacks on the city?"
The crowd parts for the voice in fear of being appointed blame.
The voice is Dave, a member from the science club wearing a red coat.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
"As you can see I hold a party goer in my clutches. If you do not comply then he shall be injured and then all of you shall be injured. However if you follow my orders you will all be safe and able to return to your party."
The teens look anxious over the sudden situation.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
As the teenagers are confused over the lights being turned on I make a WIREMAN emit a high pitch noise.
That brings all of their attention on me. I speak to them through DIGMAN:
"Greetings teenagers sorry to interrupt your fun but I require access to where you're partying."
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
Very well if I am unable to prevent this teenager from shining a light on my actions then I shall step into the spotlight.
Sorry kids but it seems like I shall be crashing the party.
I will my WIREMEN and DIGMAN to surround the teens.
I then turn on the lights.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
Causing physical harm to this boy is not a viable option. Neither is keeping them prisoner.
If only I had the technology to erase this from his mind. Hmmm I should see if NERD has any research on that topic after I collect my resources.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
However beating this teenager into a coma feels needlessly cruel.
After all if I picked that option there is a chance that this boy would slumber forever. Would that be fair for him whose only crime is seeing me?
Would I want him to be my first major casualty in this war?
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
Hmm. The option of holding him prisoner is viable however I don't at the moment possess the capacity to hold prisoners at my base.
I would need to constantly monitor this teenager till a suitable prison was made.
With options available at hand I could beat him into a coma.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
The boy's beer smashes to the ground as two WIREMEN force him onto his knees and restrains him.
His mouth is covered in case he tries to scream.
The music has covered the noise of his capture.
What to do now? An option is to hold him prisoner.
#Vtuber #Lore #DIGMAN
The boy looks around the WIREMEN as if he is trying to decide what to do.
He begins to turn and run while still carrying the beer. Unfortunately for him my WIREMEN are faster and are able to easily capture him before he can warn anyone.
Now how to deal with this?
