Chapter 378 Pirate Guard
Polaris is a very special star system.
Here, the Jupiter Third Empire built a special prison, in which some special prisoners were imprisoned.
When God's Stick and Relax and Relax were escorted to this star system, they were sent to a space station called the Polaris Group Plantation.
This seems to be just an ordinary plantation space station, but it is actually the prison with the highest security level in New Eden.
Because the prisoners in this space station are all a group of immortal criminals.
For example, for clone pilots like God's Stick and Relax and Relax, death is the beginning of their freedom. They can easily transfer their consciousness and activate a new clone body in the outside world.
In New Eden, it is not only clone pilots who are immortal.
On the contrary, there are many ways to achieve immortality.
For example, members of the mysterious "Undying Cycle", for example, the top leaders of various pirate forces, the top leaders of major empires, and of course, the worst influence is a group called clone mercenaries.
These people are not the same as clone pilots.
Over the past few decades, clone pilots have been the most famous people in New Eden, but a whole new type of clone has been born.
They are highly neural-enhanced surface warriors who originated from a program called "Templars" of the Emmara Empire.
This is a super warrior program developed by the Emmara Empire based on the hibernation capsules of the Hibernators.
These clone mercenaries are extremely powerful and can even fight against thousands of ordinary warriors.
Many people are confused about the nature of clone mercenaries and clone pilots, thinking that there is no difference between the two.
However, this perception is completely wrong.
Both belong to materialized virtual consciousness, but they are completely different humans.
Every time a clone pilot is reborn, he will restore himself completely, or restore himself as completely as possible. Every piece of neural data and brain structure will be completely scanned, transferred, and copied.
Clone pilots pursue the real feeling and real scene in experience. Some memories may be lost during the process of consciousness transfer, but this is irrelevant.
Clone pilots are considered to be at least a complete person.
Clone warriors and clone mercenaries are different.
In order to meet the needs of combat, they underwent physical transformation, greatly enhanced physical fitness, and even the brain structure has completely changed to meet the needs of cloning technology.
Their personality has been transferred from the brain and stored in the database.
This is everything about clone warriors, and everything else has basically been abandoned.
The clone pilots retain their consciousness, memory, and personality completely, while the clone warriors only retain their personality.
If the clone pilot dies, he will be reborn, and the clone warrior dies, it is just a new personality that gets a new body, and the original consciousness and memory will be lost.
It can be said that these clone warriors are digital personalities.
Their personality, that is, soul, is stored in the database of the command center, and there is also a clone resurrection unit.
Every time they die, the clone warriors will get an update file of personality data, and consciousness, memory and other things will be abandoned.
This situation makes these clone warriors uncontrollable, and the instability in their nature is soon exposed.
These super warriors gradually lost control.
They are just a group of souls imprisoned in the database.
The Amarr Empire feared a rebellion by these super soldiers, and the plan was deemed a failure. An order was issued for a full orbital bombardment to ensure that no evidence of the experiment would exist and would not be investigated by the Concordat.
This was the first generation of clone warriors, and later, the Amarr Empire developed a second generation of clone warriors, which were less aggressive than the first generation of clone warriors and did not need months to recover after being transformed like the first generation of warriors.
Gradually, this technology spread to other empires, and the other three empires began to develop their own clone warriors.
A long time passed.
However, Caldari Executive Hayes encountered an attack while attending a rally on New Caldari Prime.
The attacker subdued more than a dozen of Hayes's well-trained bodyguards with just physical combat. You know, these bodyguards were selected from the Caldari President's Guard and were the strongest warriors of the Caldari.
In the end, the attacker was subdued and it was finally confirmed that the attacker was a clone soldier.
After reawakening, Hess ordered a purge of clone warriors in Caldari.
Other empires also purged clone warriors in their territories.
However, these super warriors were not so easy to deal with.
They resisted hundreds of attacks from various empires.
In the end, they were forced to sign a bill to establish the status of clone warriors. This bill gave clone warriors a status similar to that of clone pilots and became an independent political entity.
Of course, the support of some forces was indispensable, such as the Mordu Corps, Guristas, the Serpentis Group, and the Angel Group, all of which provided help to these clone warriors, which was the key to these clone warriors escaping the empire's purge.
If clone pilots are just ordinary people who have gained immortality, then clone warriors are a group of immortal supermen. Of course, they are difficult to survive in space due to the range of consciousness transmission.
However, on the ground, these clone warriors are all independent supermen.
And now, in this plantation space station, there is also a clone warrior named "Temple No. 1".
He is the first clone warrior born, and was once thought to have died completely in the purge of the Emma Empire.
The Astro also entered this galaxy with the World Ark of the Three Gods.
After entering this galaxy, the Astro activated the stealth device and then jumped to this space station.
In the space station, the special prisoner called Temple No. 1 seemed to have noticed something after seeing the two clone pilots with big eyes entering the space station.
However, he chose to crash into the specially reinforced wall without hesitation.
With a "bang", the metal wall made of special materials was dented, and he himself was hit on the head and bleeding.
Then, the second and third hits, until he could no longer move.
On the Astro, a dormant clone finally opened his eyes.
"Welcome, Temple No. 1, the Undead Loop welcomes you to join."
And the Jupiter people in charge of the space station looked at this scene without any ripples on their faces.
In the Zarzak galaxy, the mysterious organization called the Undead Loop also received good news from the Astro.
This is a special rescue organized by their organization.
Because the consciousness transmission distance of the clone warriors is limited, they cannot transfer consciousness across countless galaxies like clone pilots. The consciousness transfer of clone warriors does not use quantum entanglement, and the transfer range usually does not exceed the distance of the galaxy surface.
This requires that a command center must be deployed within a very close range to transfer.
It is not easy to enter the North Star. You must have a special password from Jupiter to enter the galaxy.
Outside the Jupiter Third Empire, only the Rational Thinking Society knew the password to enter the galaxy.
If there was no resolution by the Unification Department to temporarily detain Songsongsong and God's Big Stick, they would never have the chance to enter this galaxy, nor the chance to rescue "Temple No. 1".
In the Zarzak galaxy, the mysterious leader of the Undead Cycle spoke after learning that "Temple No. 1" had been rescued.
"We immortals should have united. Now is the time. Those corrupt empires are not worthy of ruling New Eden at all!"
"It's time to blow the horn of our counterattack!"
As he pressed a button.
In the Zarzak galaxy, the four Jupiter star gates that had been silent for a long time were lit up again.
These four star gates lead to the Coles star field, the Venar star field, the Turrule galaxy and the Osawinlun galaxy respectively.
The Zalzak Galaxy, which had been separated from New Eden for many years, returned to the embrace of New Eden again, and with the help of these four star gates, some areas of New Eden were reconnected.
"Also, it's time for you to take action."
He said to the two holographic figures.
These two people are representatives of the Guristas Group and the Angel Group.
These two pirate groups have long been allies with the Undead Cycle.
"Don't worry, it's time to fight back against these arrogant empires."
The representatives of the two pirate groups have been waiting for this day for a long time.
In this way, the two pirate groups that have been silent for a long time finally began to act.
The Angel Group and the Guristas Group have organized large fleets respectively, and their fleets will attack various empires.
The first to bear the brunt is the battle zone between Emma-Minmatar and Gallente-Caldari, that is, the Guard Zone.
They also formed their own guards: the Guristas Guard and the Angel Guard.
This is a long-planned pirate rebellion.
One after another, the pirate frontline combat bases of Angels or Guristas were deployed, after which the pirate ships launched raids on targets in the galaxy.
Various space buildings, mining barges, and targets in space were all targets of their attacks.
Similarly, the Pirate Guard will also open its arms to clone pilots.
The Undead Cycle hopes to unite all the immortals to overthrow the rule of the four empires together and make these immortals the true rulers of New Eden.
And clone pilots are naturally the forces they need to win over.
They know the characteristics of clone pilots, so these pirate guards offer very generous rewards to clone pilots who help them.
All clone pilots who join the Pirate Guard can freely enter and exit the Zarzak galaxy and dock at the giant Jupiter building called "Fulcrum".
Moreover, the two pirate groups also offer generous rewards to the members of these Pirate Guards.
Helping the Pirate Guards to fight for control of the galaxy can earn loyalty points.
And these loyalty points can be exchanged for some special spaceship blueprints.
For example, Gustave's Alligator-class battlecruisers and Mamba-class destroyers, and Angel Group's Mekuba-class destroyers and Kizril-class battlecruisers.
And these two forces provide more than just these things.
These two pirate groups basically took out their most valuable products to attract clone pilots to join.
Guristas' Komodo-class Titan and Angel-class Titan.
The Komodo-class Titan is just a product of Guristas' transformation based on the Caldari's Leviathan-class Titan.
The image of the Angel Group's Azaliel-class Titan is completely different from the Minmatar Titan.
This is a semi-circular Titan with the Angel Group's unique jump speed bonus, which allows the Azaliel-class Titan to escape danger or join the battlefield in a shorter time.
At the same time, the output capacity of this Titan is also extremely high, second only to the Conqueror-class Titan of the Serpentis Group, and has extremely powerful output capacity.
This is a Titan with extremely high potential and can kill all around.
The blueprint copies of these two Titans can also be exchanged with the loyalty points of the Pirate Guard. Not only can they be exchanged for blueprints, but they can even be directly exchanged for ships.
Once the news of the Pirate Guard was announced, those low-security players were simply like crazy.
"Titan! Titans can be exchanged directly!"
Who doesn't have a dream of owning a Titan?
However, the manufacture of Titans requires a sovereign star system, and the material cost, manufacturing skills, and manufacturing time of high security have stopped most people.
And now, they found that as long as they work for these two pirate guards, they can get a Titan of their own!
How can such a situation not make them crazy?
With the appearance of the Pirate Guards, these low-security legions joined the Pirate Guards without hesitation.
For a moment, the original four imperial guards were immediately defeated.
And the 2V Alliance naturally joined the Gustas Guards nearby.
Now, the entire alliance is leaderless, and the two managers, God's Big Stick and Relax, have been imprisoned, and the original preparations have been suspended.
Fortunately, the two German alliances and the October Alliance, which have become hostile, have also stopped preparing for war because of the appearance of the Pirate Guards, and they also desperately hope to obtain these Titans.
With the appearance of the Pirate Guards, the focus of the four empires has shifted. They no longer regard the Three Gods as the main threat. Now these Pirate Guards are the most difficult targets.
If these pirate groups rely on their own strength, it is naturally difficult to compete with the major empires. Even the imperial guards are enough to deal with these pirate guards.
However, the addition of clone pilots has completely turned the battle situation to the side of the pirate guards.
Seeing the flames of war everywhere, Mona Sabati, the leader of the sisterhood, sent a message to Emma and the Gallente ambassador.
"Everything is going according to plan."
