Myriad & Level 8

Enlightened,.Resistance. It doesn't matter. Myriad must be defeated. Take down the barrier.

Those were Calvin's last few words before being decimated into shards by Nemesis. But what is the nature of the Myriad Anomaly? Maybe what Calvin said to Lightman previously on the urgency to develop NIA's simulacrum RPE tech can shed some light and present a clue.

If you recall, Calvin warned Lightman that he must quickly develop the RPE tech. And when asked by Lightman, the reason Calvin gave was shrouded in a code-phrase. Level 8. Nobody knows what it means. And Calvin has brought its secrets to the Substrate, literally speaking.

But those of us from 1218 know of another Level 8 event. We read it in Felicia's Ingress: Level 8. She is probably a powerful sensitive or entity who can perform a high level RPE to view and reconstruct the entire event at CERN from multiple vantage points when all three XM corporations converged to take down the Niantic Project and retrieve all the high value personnel and a corpse from its facilities. Even the AI-enhanced 855 joined in the party in his quest to take out ADA using Bowles.

Is Felicia's Level 8 from 1218 similar to Calvin's in Prime?

• Could it be that Calvin knew that NEMESIS' barrier is the weapon stopping the Niantic Project simulacra from recursing?
• Is NEMESIS acting like the XM corporations from 1218 on the night they infiltrated and attacked the Niantic Project facilities to shut it down since NEMESIS have already made it obvious that they will destroy the Niantic Magnus in a leaked intel?
• Will agents from both factions be forced to set aside their differences and tasked to work together to bring down NEMESIS' barrier, thus allowing the Niantic simulacra to recurse once again?

Perhaps Lightman already completed the Simulacrum RPE Tech for Calvin. Taking down the barrier will allow the simulacra of Niantic Project to recurse easily in disposable simulacrum bodies in the Ingress Multiverse when worlds are linked by Anomalies.
