UBYKA ARMY

STORY

At the turn of the 21st century, the Pentagon's D.A.R.P.A (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) advanced biomechanics and nanotechnology into the UBYKA phase. Machine-insect interfaces created by placing a micro-mechanical system inside the insects during the early stages of metamorphosis.

These UBYKA cyborg animals were superior in strength and agility, and enhanced with the latest technologies. Cyborg insects were used strategically as 'war terminators' - designed to end conflict in the most direct way usually by targeting high-value targets such as a terrorist leader or a dictatorship's key nuclear weapons scientist. This was done via weapons platforms attached to the cyborg units usch as tiny but potent weapons such as missiles with posison and hallucinogenic drugs.

Further experiments took place with UBYKA 2.0 upgrading the insects with advanced artificial intelligence to enhance decision-making and learning ability during combat situations. These cyborg animals were programmed with its primary objective to ‘End War’ and were given access to classified documents and internet access to figure out the optimal strategy to strike a final death blow to the enemy.

After several months of complex calculated analysis the advan ed cybprg insects divised a solution - the only way to fulfil its main objective of ending wars on earth was to erdicate the human race.

A bloody mutiny at D.A.R.P.A headquarters took place in which the cyborg animals escaped and formed UBYKA ARMY organised into specialist roles - air units called SKY FORCE and ground units called EARTH FORCE.

Their mission: Eradicate the human race and bring peace to planet earth.

This was not called genocide.

This was called recalibaration.
