"What?!"
Everyone in the room looked stunned. Headquarters had picked up a signal from beyond Earth—did that mean... aliens?
The young executive from earlier leaned forward, curiosity written all over his face.
"Richard, that alien signal... what exactly did it say?"
"After decoding, it turns out the alien species is friendly," Richard replied. "They said they want to help us fight the zombies. And they've sent us a piece of advanced tech—something way ahead of anything on Earth. It's the core technology behind the fifth-generation Cyborgs: the NeuroCore™."
"Holy shit!" gasped one of the execs, echoing the shock rippling through the room. No wonder this was top-level classified.
The fourth-gen Cyborgs were already at their peak—powerful enough to take down most Zombie Kings. And now they were already working on Gen Five? It was hard to even imagine how powerful that would be.
