As the Legion's main forces entered the territory controlled by the Vax Corporation, the corporation indeed offered no resistance. Meanwhile, an answer had arrived regarding Infiltrator 0-8. Through the Legion's exclusive communications network, two pieces of intelligence were laid before Cheng Yu.
First, the reason Infiltrator 0-8's messages had failed to get through was precisely the third possibility they had previously analyzed: the enemy had used an unknown method to cut off Infiltrator 0-8's Subunits inside the Vax Corporation.
Second, immediately after the Legion entered the Vax Corporation's territory, its communications network had also come under attack. Guardian 0-9 was now fulfilling his role.
Cheng Yu froze. Were they really that brazen? The enemy had actually struck first?
Following his usual routine, Cheng Yu asked Conductor about the Legion's current "battle situation."
Conductor replied.
"Reporting to the Deputy Core: we are currently allocating additional computing power to Infiltrator 0-8. Intelligence on the structure of the enemy network is being collected, and Infiltrator 0-8's capabilities are steadily improving.
"Meanwhile, on the perimeter of the Legion's communications network, Guardian 0-9 and an unidentified network intrusion have begun an offensive and defensive engagement. Guardian 0-9 currently retains an overwhelming advantage, but the unidentified hostile network's capabilities are also growing. Some of the Z-Series Wisdom Units under this unit's command have already transferred their consciousnesses into the network. They will serve as Guardian 0-9's commanders.
"In addition, the research institute's K-Series Wisdom unit, Codename White Coat, has led a group of Wisdom units into the Legion network. They will finish gathering intelligence on the enemy network as quickly as possible."
Cheng Yu nodded slightly. As mentioned before, the greatest loss the Legion had ever suffered came when the Ancestor of Wizards infiltrated its interior through the network and then carried out a decapitation strike
