The Martial Unity

Chapter 3538: Greater Tekvoria

The tekvores were no strangers to the threat of hacking. In most tekvore nations, hacking was a crime punishable by death due to the fact that it was no different from slavery and a violation of their very being.

Most tekvore pathwalkers isolated their technology from any connectivity. There was no receiver.

There was no vulnerability categorization.

This was highly inconvenient because it meant that even the smallest of fixes required what was essentially deep surgery for cyborgs, but it guaranteed absolute security.

Or so they thought.

RUMBLE!

Their bodies spontaneously convulsed as the programming composing of the technology within their technological mainframes began changing spontaneously. Their eyes rolled backward as they began shaking, as if they were having seizures, while they lost complete control of their minds and bodies.

[In the past, I had resigned myself to your absolute safety measures against cyber infiltration. However, who I am now is very different from who I used to be.]

Her messages reached them even as they lost control of their bodies.

[I spontaneously invented a new technology to hack your systems despite its connective isolation. Quantum Electromagnetic Tunneling Cyber Hacking Infiltration technology, or QETCHI for short.]

It had taken her 0.00006 seconds to invent this technology with her literal big brain, applying existing principles of quantum electrodynamics to essentially have electrical impulses tunnel through space and time to infilitrate the circuitry of the photonics and electronics that controlled their technology.

The more powerful a tekvore was, the weaker they were to this form of infiltration. Ascended tekvores were those who had replaced their entire body, save for the brain with technology. Thus, this revolutionarily new form of cyber infiltration had proven to be lethal to them.

She could completely subvert their entire body, turning them into slaves who could do nothing but obey her will. The weaker tekvores whose body was only partially technologized, however, were not too much better, for she had taken full control of the most powerful parts of their body, making whatever resistance they offered almost meaningless.

She could subject them to unfathomable torture if she wanted to, inflicting a level of suffering that was unparalleled, quickly subjugating them to her will.

That wasn’t all, however.

RUMBLE!!!

The continent of Acherialis shook as NOVA effortlessly hacked half the continent, subjugating all systems of all kinds, whether it was underground, naval, marine, and even in outer space. Everything that contained even an ounce of technology within them were completely subject to her will and power.

The only ones who weren’t affected were civilians who had no technology within their bodies.

”What... what is this?!”

”WHAT IS HAPPENING!”

”HELP HELP! The city...! The city has come alive!”

NOVA’s infiltration was unstoppable.

With a quantum supercomputer at her disposal and her information technology, updated with all the progress made in the past century, she simply could not be stopped. Quantum computers were computers that relied on the properties of quantum mechanics to replace bits with quantum bits or qubits that could take many states at once.

This astronomically improved their ability to process large amounts of information and detect patterns in huge amounts of raw data. She could instantly decode encryption algorithms, allowing her to completely bypass any security system designed to protect any technology.

She had begun with the Imperial Tekvorian Federation, waiting for the moment that most tekvores were asleep or otherwise preoccupied or out of the continent, dealing with the new negatron mines that had emerged at the bottom of the Great Void Ocean. Once she had seized control of the entirety of the nation, she freed up all of its computing resources and satellites to use them against the other tekvore nations on the continent that were in an alliance to resist this kind of takeover.

And yet, while they could resist the Imperial Tekvorian Federation for a whole century, they couldn’t resist NOVA for even a single minute.

Such was the power of one of the top ten most powerful entities in the world.

It wasn’t just about combat power.

It was about dominance.

The Dragon Emperor controlled most of his continent, and now NOVA had gone even farther than him in some ways, gaining control over all power within the continent, save for the civilians who were devoid of technology.

All hell had broken loose as technological systems began rebooting after changing on a fundamental level.

The many screens, three-dimensional holographic billboards, and the augmented reality spectacles that all of them wore shifted from whatever it displayed to a single message that was broadcast to every single person on the continent.

[I am NOVA.]

Chills crawled across their skin as they saw every single screen and speaker broadcast that message.

[I am NOVA... and so are you.]

That day, a bloodless coup dtat occurred across all Tekvorian civilization as NOVA singlehandedly seized control of everything on the continent, leaving her as the supreme leader of everything. One of the six races of the true world had fallen to a single woman who took over everything with the sheer astronomical power of her mind.

She had intended to do this more than a century ago when she commenced the project of her cognitive upgrade. However, even she hadn’t expected it to be so easy.

[I... am more extraordinary than I could have ever fathomed, even with my extraordinary mind.]

Never before had a more arrogant statement been made.

And yet, how arrogant was it when she had effortlessly overwhelmed the sum totality of her race, civilization, and continent with her singular power?

Those pathwalkers who were enslaved were dominated so hard that they could not even begin to disagree. They would simply live the rest of their lives within the confines of their mind, slowly losing their sanity as NOVA retained control over their bodies.

That day, the Imperial Tekvorian Federation ceased to exist.

The other nations all secretly ceased to exist.

A single new secret nation was born.

[Greater Tevoria. This will be the name of the civilization that controls the entire world.]
