Chapter 172: Mission Screen



Delon answered honestly, revealing the existence of unmanned Data Trains.

These specialized trains were built for fast travel and served one purpose: updating data every week.

To steer clear of attracting Corrupteds, these trains transported no humans and were quite compact.

Moreover, this compact data trains traveled underground just beneath the railings because they were small, reducing the risk of attacks since Corrupteds were drawn to human presence.

In Tier 4 cities, data updates occurred only once a week.

However, in higher-tier cities, particularly Tier 1 , updates happened as frequently as every hour.

Larger cities needed faster access to information to ensure they weren\'t caught off guard by Corrupteds Invasion which was pretty common and almost nonstop on this location called [Corrupted Main Zones]

Reign leaned back in his chair, processing this new information.

"Unmanned Data Trains, huh? Interesting. It makes sense now how you got my information despite the miasma." He responded.

"The Data Trains are quite helpful considering how hard it is to transfer data ," Delon explained.

"But why not use wired lines ?" Reign asked, expressing a long-standing curiosity. "Couldn\'t they just use fiber optics to connect each city?"

"What\'s \'Fiber Optics\'?" Delon asked, puzzled by the term.

"Oh, yeah, sorry about that," Reign sighed, acknowledging his mistake.

He had forgotten that some terms was bound to be different here because this was another world.

"So, it\'s basically a technology that uses thin strands of glass or plastic to transmit data as light pulses. It\'s like sending messages through beams of light instead of traditional electrical signals."

"Oh, you mean Light Signals!" Delon chuckled, finally understanding what Reign was talking about.

"Yeah, that\'s it!" Reign forced a smile along with Delon. "Light signals, laser signals, same idea. It\'s all about using light to transmit data."

"The government did try that, but for some reason, Corrupteds could sense anything outside the barriers that send signals, and they always got destroyed." He paused to catch his breath.

"I heard rumors that the repair costs for each destroyed lines were too high because of how frequent it was, so they ended up scrapping the whole idea. Now, light signals are only used inside the barriers." Delon added.

"And they haven\'t figured out a way to fix this?" Reign asked.

"Of course not! Whoever can invent such a thing would be the richest person in the world. Imagine how easy the lives of humans would become with that type of technology" Delon chuckled aloud, finding the idea pretty much impossible.

And he had good reasons to do so.

If it were that simple, the brilliant scientists of this world would have already discovered a way to fix this connectivity issue.

This civilization isn\'t lacking in technology, so the absence of city to city internet just shows how difficult the miasma problem was to overcome.

"I see," Reign nodded, this explains a lot. HDD and SSD don\'t emit anything when they are not being used so they were safe for transport.

Plus, it would be more cost-effective to use that rare metal to conceal the signal of the machine operating the Data Train, rather than building an infrastructure made of the same material that could span thousands of miles, and cost billions of credits .

This made fiber optics not viable, rendering any type of wired connectivity impossible outside the barrier.

"You\'re pretty interested in this technology stuff," Delon remarked casually.

"Yeah, I\'m the curious type of person," Reign answered nonchalantly .

But deep inside, his mind raced with possibilities, and possible advantage he could get with this new information.

The existence of Data Trains opened up new avenues for his future plans.

By knowing their exact schedule, he could come up with a strategy that would utilize the delay in the transport of data.

He could even prevent data from being transferred from another city by destroying it directly.

"Thanks for the info," Reign bid his farewell, and exited the room.

Next, he headed to the lobby where the other Veiled Nights members were chilling out.

A large monitor displayed available missions, but it was mostly for show, as most members checked using the app

"Hey, you\'re that new guy, right?" A woman in her 30s walked over to Reign, her attire exuding a suggestive message.

She wore a tight denim skirt that barely reached mid-thigh, a red jacket draped over her shoulders, and a black T-shirt underneath with bold lettering that read, "I like it long and hard."

Her makeup was heavy, emphasizing her smoldering gaze and scarlet lips, while her dark brown hair cascaded in loose waves, adding to her sexy demeanor.

Reign turned his gaze towards her briefly before returning his attention to the monitor, seemingly indifferent to her presence.

The woman was immediately offended, feeling mocked by his dismissive behavior.

"Hey, don\'t you know it\'s rude to ignore someone talking to you?" she spat out, her tone tinged with irritation.

Reign\'s continued silence only seemed to fuel the woman\'s frustration. She persisted in trying to engage him, her voice growing louder with each attempt.

"Seriously, what\'s your problem? You think you\'re too good to talk to me?" she demanded, her hands planted firmly on her hips as she glared at him.

The surrounding members began to take notice of the escalating commotion, their curious gazes turning into amused smirks and stifled chuckles.

It was evident that Reign\'s refusal to acknowledge the woman was becoming a source of entertainment for them.

Undeterred by the lack of response, the woman pressed on, her voice laced with annoyance.

"Fine, be that way. I don\'t need your attention anyway. Plenty of other guys here who actually know how to satisfy a woman with my caliber."

As she stormed off, her pride wounded, the laughter from the other members grew louder, magnified by a few snarky remarks exchanged amongst themselves about the encounter.

\'Did a fly just fly by?\' Reign mused to himself, a hint of amusement in his tone.

Despite her frustration, Reign remained fixated on the mission display, seemingly unaware of the woman\'s walk out drama.

Returning to the monitor, he noticed a mission that piqued his interest.

It was a Gold Rank Mission with a huge reward, but that wasn\'t the sole reason he was so invested.

Instead, it was the content of the mission: "Steal a Special Type of Virus" from a particular research center.

Seeing the potential benefit, Reign quickly picked up his phone and accepted the mission to access more details.

======

Mission Details:

>Location: Research Facility Lica, on the outskirts of the city - South West

>Place: The facility is a sprawling complex surrounded by high walls and guarded by advanced security systems.

>Type of Virus: "SARVS-35" - a highly classified and experimental strain designed to target specific genetic markers in human DNA, with potential applications in medical research and biological warfare.

>Owner of the Research Facility: BioGen Corporation - a powerful Tier 1 corporation known for cutting-edge biotechnology research.

\'This job is made for me,\' Reign chuckled to himself, contemplating the upcoming mission.
