Video Games: Starting From Resident Evil

After finishing the discussion meeting at the command headquarters, Aiden prepared to get up and return to his residence.

As the commander of the androids, he only needed to make the final decision. The remaining matters naturally had people to handle them, so under normal circumstances, he was still relatively free.

Nowadays, the resistance camp had already taken shape, with the rudiments of a city. The road conditions were also much better than before, the streets were wider and smoother, and he also had his own special vehicle. The driver was a specifically selected YoRHa-type android.

However, the command headquarters wasn't far from his residence. Under normal circumstances, Aiden would choose to walk, mainly because he was being protected very tightly. During this period, he basically hadn't gone far, so he considered walking as physical activity.

The walking speed was naturally not very fast. The special car slowly followed behind him. Fortunately, everyone here was an android. Otherwise, in the real world, even with sky-high connections, this would probably cause a burst of scolding.

After walking nearly halfway, Aiden stopped, hesitating as he stood still. The window of the special car behind him rolled down, and a YoRHa-type B-model android poked her head out and asked, "Commander, are you getting in the car?"

"No." Aiden shook his head. In the end, he still made up his mind and turned to walk toward the tavern in the city.

Calculating carefully, it had been several days since he last saw the twin sisters. Moreover, speaking of it, tomorrow it was their turn to take care of him. He might as well go now and stay over there tonight.

To be honest, today it was originally White's turn. But due to the mechanical lifeforms' civil war, she was busier than usual. And since this matter could affect the battle situation, she, who always considered things like the commander more important than anything, uncharacteristically didn't put down her work. She only said, as Aiden left, that she'd make it up to him properly next time.

As for how to make up for it, Aiden of course understood. But that was a matter for later.

When he arrived at the tavern run by the twin sisters, it was just noon. Naturally, there wasn't a single customer in the tavern. After all, in the whole city, besides Aiden and the twins, there was no one else who liked drinking this stuff.

The twins were extremely surprised by Aiden's sudden arrival, but more so delighted. So Devola stayed to chat with Aiden, while Popola went to prepare lunch.

"Try this."

Aiden had just sat down at a small round table when Devola brought over an oak mug, placing it in front of him like offering a treasure.

Aiden glanced at it. Inside was a golden liquid. He immediately knew it was beer, so he picked it up and took a big sip. Although the taste was a bit bitter, there were ice cubes inside. All in all, the taste was not bad, and it immediately cooled him down a lot.

"A few days ago you said you found something good, don't tell me you found wild wheat?" Aiden looked at the liquid in the cup and asked.

"That's right!" Devola nodded.

She also had a cup of beer in front of her. She took a small sip and continued, "Popola and I kept the best quality grains as seeds, planning to try growing them later. The rest, which weren't as good, were all used to brew beer. But because the quality wasn't great, the taste is still a bit off. Plus, we didn't make much, just a few barrels."

"That's a pity. Compared to high-proof distilled liquor, I still prefer this kind of low-alcohol beverage. At least it doesn't cause discomfort from drinking too much."

Though with his physique, it was basically impossible for him to get drunk, once alcohol accumulated in the body, it still made him feel uncomfortable. He quite disliked this feeling, so unless it was to relax, he generally didn't like drinking.

"It's okay. If there's no more beer, there's still fruit wine. It's also low-alcohol and undistilled. Now that we have a large freezer, we can store it for a long time. Aiden, you can drink whenever you like."

Devola didn't call Aiden "Commander" like other androids, but maintained her previous way of addressing him. To her, calling him "Aiden" felt much more intimate than calling him "Commander."

"We'll talk later." Aiden nodded but didn't continue the topic. He drank the rest of the beer in his cup and then let out a long sigh.

Probably knowing that Aiden had gone to a meeting in the morning and thinking he might be a bit tired, when she saw him sigh and fall silent, Devola immediately stood up, walked behind him, and began gently massaging his shoulders.

"Aiden, if you ever feel tired, just come to us. Popola and I are good at many things, we can help you relieve fatigue in all kinds of ways!" she said as she massaged.

In terms of taking care of people, the twin sisters were indeed much better than A2 and the others. They could also make tasty food and refreshing drinks, making Aiden often want to move in permanently.

But his current residence was one he had found with A2 and Yakor, and it had been renovated very well. All kinds of furniture were complete, and they even opened up 2B's room.

The area had doubled, and several new beds were added. At least 11B didn't have to sleep on the floor anymore, and Yakor didn't have to sleep on the sofa.

He didn't agree, but he also didn't refuse. Aiden only smiled at Devola and asked, "Then what's the best way to relieve my fatigue?"

Devola glanced at Popola who had just come out of the kitchen, then leaned down and whispered in his ear, "Aiden, do you want to try the twin flowers?"

That was indeed a very tempting suggestion. Aiden nodded immediately without even thinking.

So Devola waved at Popola. "Popola, come here for a moment."

Popola was setting dishes on the table. When she heard this, she walked over.

"Sis, what is it?"

"Come a little closer." Devola waved again, signaling her to come nearer.

Popola had no choice but to walk in front of Devola. Then Devola whispered her purpose in her ear.

After hearing what Devola said, Popola glanced at Aiden a little shyly, but didn't object. She gave a slight nod.

The elder sister made the suggestion, the younger sister didn't object, so everything afterward followed naturally.

After lunch, they chatted together all afternoon, had dinner, then Aiden took a bath early and lay down in bed.

To be honest, while in bed, Aiden reflected slightly on whether he had been living too extravagantly and decadently recently, with his will almost worn down.

However, as the twin sisters entered the room wearing thin gauze, Aiden felt his earlier reflection was a bit foolish, wasn't this kind of life exactly what he wanted most?

Although Aiden did not have the androids interfere in the civil war of the mechanical lifeforms, that didn't mean they just sat on the sidelines. On the contrary, taking advantage of the mechanical lifeforms being too busy to care, they accelerated the pace of expanding new territory.

This kind of aggressive approach caused the android-occupied territory to grow at a geometric rate. The war between androids and mechanical lifeforms was unlike that of humans, no need to consider the opinions of local populations or make policies. To androids and mechanical lifeforms, it was simply you die or I die.

And the occupied land was quickly put to use. If a place already had a mechanical lifeform factory, it was directly converted and fully used to produce androids.

If there was no factory but there were resources, they would extract them like draining a pond to get the fish, no environmental groups or resource management bureaus would fine them anyway.

As for places with nothing at all, they didn't care, just left a small number of androids there to set up an outpost.

During this period, the mechanical lifeforms did launch several proactive attacks against the androids. But things weren't like before. Without alien creatures commanding them, the mechanical lifeforms were completely scattered.

After rebelling against their creators, they had once suppressed the androids with numerical advantage. But now the androids also had the numbers, and with tactical coordination, each mechanical lifeform offensive ended in failure.

After all, war still values command. Although N2 and the brothers Adam and Eve could control the mechanical lifeforms via the mechanical network to carry out actions according to their will, they were too powerful to micro-control every individual. In the end, it was like playing StarCraft with a mass F2-A-move.

Just like that, several months passed. The mechanical lifeforms finally finished their civil war. Those who developed self-awareness were almost entirely wiped out. It seemed they now had the strength to deal with the androids.

However, during these few months, the number of androids had increased by dozens of times compared to the beginning. Though this came at the cost of draining several mining zones, tens of thousands of androids were still being produced every day.

After all, making androids didn't necessarily require mining. The mechanical lifeforms themselves were the best resource.

Every part of them was valuable, their cores could be used to make black boxes, their internal components reused, and even their outer shells melted down to form android bodies.

The only trouble was the synthetic skin, which required more craftsmanship. So only YoRHa-type androids were fully equipped; other models were more like Terminator-style robots, just metal skeletons.

Now, the force Aiden commanded was already shockingly large. Even in the real world, a few million androids would be enough to eliminate a mid-sized country in a short time.

And all these androids belonged to him, only obeying his orders. Moreover, the number was still increasing daily.

Besides mass production, research and development of equipment hadn't lagged behind either. Before, due to resource shortages, more than a dozen bases only had small transformable fighters and some transport aircraft.

But now, by utilizing database materials and the research efforts of scientific androids, they had begun producing large transformable fighters and bombers. Though few in number for now, they were reserved as strategic weapons.

Even so, Aiden still felt that when facing the mechanical lifeforms, his forces might not be enough. But he also knew they couldn't delay any longer.

So, shortly after the mechanical lifeforms finished their civil war, Aiden made another public address, declaring that the androids were entering a full-scale counteroffensive stage.

After the announcement, Aiden returned to being idle. After all, he didn't have to go to the front lines. Even if he wanted to, the androids wouldn't allow it. So in the days that followed, his life remained largely unchanged, circulating between several women.

Of course, not everything remained unchanged. He also added a new daily routine, listening to battle reports. And after listening, he still had to give motivational speeches to encourage the frontline androids. So, he was still quite busy.

But compared to the androids at the front, his little bit of effort didn't count for much. He didn't even need to think too hard, just wait for good news to arrive.

If nothing unexpected happened, this kind of life would continue for a long time, until the war ended and the androids achieved complete victory.

Aiden was very optimistic about that.

In contrast to Aiden's optimism, N2 and the brothers Adam and Eve were not doing so well. Even though they were mechanical lifeforms, and were born within the mechanical network, they still produced a feeling called a headache.

When facing the organized counterattack of the androids, they had absolutely no way to respond. The messages they received most often every day were that the mechanical lifeform tribes there were wiped out, and factories occupied.

After finally organizing several large-scale offensives, they were crushed on the tactical level, and combined with the fact that they truly could not operate so many mechanical lifeforms, each time ended in a crushing defeat.

Moreover, their control over the mechanical lifeforms required server support.

After the androids gained numbers, they carried out several large-scale orbital drop operations, sparing no cost to destroy many of the mechanical lifeforms' large-scale servers.

And after losing the support of large servers, many mechanical lifeforms were unable to receive their commands, and the final result was being gradually eaten away.

In this situation, the defeat of the mechanical lifeforms had already become inevitable.

However, as mechanical lifeforms with independent thinking ability, they would not just accept defeat like that. They wanted to turn the tide, and what's more, opportunities did still exist.

Because the place they had previously lived in had already been occupied by the androids, N2 and Adam and Eve were now at a location where a large server was placed.

If A2 were here, she would definitely be very familiar with this place, this was clearly the location where she had once participated in the Pearl Bay orbital descent operation.

N2, who could only appear in the real world as a virtual projection, sat on a chair that was also a virtual projection. They looked at Adam and Eve in front of them and, in unison, spoke the plan they had thought about for a long time.

"We will gather all aerial forces that we can currently gather, to assist you in entering the city where that human is. At that time, you will split into two routes, one will go to assassinate that human, and the other will try to destroy the androids' database."

"Also, regardless of whether the assassination succeeds or fails, it doesn't matter. What's important is to draw the guarding forces over there. As long as the firewall of their database is destroyed, we will be able to invade their master control center and release the logic virus."

"Of course, if the assassination succeeds, that would be best..."

[T/N: I came to know, via Patreon, that you can't find the new novels I annouce, in my account. The thing is, WebNovel allows maximum 20 WebNovels to be published by an account. Due to which, I can't post anymore novels through this account. So, I had to create another account(Ambitious_Guy) to continue publishing novels. So, when I am annoucing new novels, you can search them by their name and read it, or just check my other account(Ambitious_Guy). I hope it clarifies.]
