Getting a Technology System in Modern Day
chapter-204

This new piece of news which included Eden's press meeting stating the truth and their conditions for sending back the soldiers of Esparia was immediately fanned by the news agencies that continuously kept releasing article after article with headlines that attracted people's attention to the situation even more.

@BreakingNewsAlert: Explosive audio evidence surfaces in the Eden-Esparia conflict! Watch the shocking footage of the missile attack on the Esparian fleet. Tensions escalate as Eden demands full control of the shared island border. #BreakingNews #WorldConflict

@AnalyticalInsight: Eden's bold move demands complete control of the island border. But will Esparia accept these "Non-negotiable" terms? The footage of the attack leaves us horrified! Where does this conflict go from here? #GeoPolitics #WarOnWater

@MilitaryInsider: That missile strike was next-level! The power and precision displayed by it is unparalleled. Speculations arise on the weapon's origin and its potential suppliers. Questions abound! #AdvancedMilitaryTech #WarfareEvolution

@CNNnews: Strong words from Eden's President, Alexander! Will Esparia yield to their demands? Negotiations seem tense, and world leaders are closely watching. #InternationalRelations #DiplomacyInCrisis

@CuriousCitizen: What kind of missile caused such a massive explosion? This raises concerns about the accessibility of such powerful weapons. The world needs stricter arms control regulations! #ArmsProliferation #GlobalSecurity

Thanks to this, every reader of this topic found themselves thinking that they were experts in the citation and started laying out their ideas and assuming as to how the situation would be going to follow from now on, some even coming up with good assumptions, some completely got deviated and entered the realm of science fiction.

@HistoryBuff101: Tensions between nations are nothing new. Let's take a deep breath and reflect on historical conflicts that eventually led to peaceful resolutions. Will Eden and Esparia find their own "Cold War" détente? #LessonsFromHistory #HopeForPeace

@CrazyConspiracies: What if this whole thing is just a distraction from an even bigger conspiracy?! Alien invasion, anyone? Share your wildest theories and let's keep an open mind! #BeyondTheSurface #TruthUnveiled

And among many of the discussions, one of them attracted a little bit more attention as it seemed that Twitter was very good at sowing conflicts between people with different ideas about the situation, leading to heated arguments about the situation.

@WarOrPeaceExpert: The Eden-Esparia conflict got me thinking! Diplomacy will win the day. Both sides need to sit down, talk it out, and find common ground. No need for war when dialogue can lead to peace! #DiplomacyFirst #WarOrPeace

@MightyWarrior: You're kidding, right? War is inevitable! Eden already showed their strength in this small-scale fight. Esparia is clearly no match for them. Victory is on the horizon! #UnstoppableEden #WarIncoming

@WarOrPeaceExpert: Oh, please! A small skirmish doesn't decide the outcome. Esparia may regroup and retaliate. It's crucial to prevent further violence and aim for a peaceful coexistence. #OptForPeace #WarNotTheAnswer

@MightyWarrior: Wishful thinking! Eden had indeed gotten the upper hand and they wouldn't back down. Esparia will crumble under the pressure. Mark my words! I choose strength and power! Eden has got the edge and that's the reality. Esparia better watch out! #EdenSupremacy #WarriorsRise

@WarOrPeaceExpert: War is not a game! Innocent lives are at stake here. Let's put our efforts into de-escalation and finding common ground for peace. #ProtectLives #WarNotTheAnswer

While most of the online netizens were discussing the events that had occurred one after another, but at the same time, inside the earth 2.0

Soldiers could be seen engaged in a war against a country that possessed more advanced technology compared to them, and they were having their asses handed to them by their enemies.

They had been here for more than seventy-five days, and during this period, other than training, they had faced nothing but war, briefing about their mistakes before they were returned back to war, again and again, to get their asses handed once more before they were shown their mistakes once again in a continuous loop, with their enemies also continuously getting stronger just like them.

However, thanks to their mistakes being shown and being returned immediately with that fresh knowledge to the fight, the lessons were etched deep into their brains, never to be forgotten again.

They were receiving first-hand experience in all situations. Like how to fight as a small group, as a medium-sized group, to fight as a massive group against a small group of enemies, to medium, to a massive group of enemies, getting experience in every aspect of war.

On the first day they entered the simulation, they were asked to choose which branch they wanted to be specialized in and be a part of.

After the selection, they were assimilated with the knowledge of that specific field, making them a super expert in that particular field while also receiving combat training with it, no matter what field they choose, even if they had opted to be a military spokesperson.

Following that, they were sent to a massive military school where they practiced the knowledge they were assimilated with, to ensure nothing had gone wrong during the process.

Soon after, they were immediately attacked by an enemy nation in a surprising assault, serving as the start of their test, being graded based on every action they took from that point until the last day of graduation. The final results would decide what position one would be assigned on the graduation day, meaning that one who was just a new soldier after entering the simulation could excel if they did very well and received high marks from Athena, starting their military career by becoming a Commander right away.

With the soldiers now informed about the benefits of earning higher points, they started working harder than when Athena had forced them. Forcing someone to do something without an endgame was difficult but when they learned that there are benefits in having higher points than others, this boosted their motivation to strive harder than their friends and through that camaraderie, a healthy competition started between the soldiers as they strived to gain higher marks so that they could start their lives with a high level in the military, knowing that they couldn't resign with the substantial amount of investments that was being spent on them.

A massive military with all of its soldiers having their bodies genetically enhanced and having received first-hand experience was thus born. The existence of this army remained as a well-kept secret with only a few handful of people being aware of it. This was an army that was capable of terrorizing the planet or beyond and was now taking its first step towards its formidable future.
