Chapter 48 "Decent"
In the No. 7 elevator rising steadily.
Zhou Zhengde rested for a while and then got up and paced back and forth.
Wang Jixuan absentmindedly fiddled with the detector he borrowed from the female officer, thinking about a big question in his mind.
Crystal nucleus.
The crystal core of the low-level blade beast, the spirit gathering formation.
These words kept crossing Wang Jixuan's heart, and his excited Taoist heart gradually calmed down.
For a few moments, he wanted to rush out and hunt down the Blade Beast's peeling crystal core.
According to the rules of the spiritual world, this kind of thing is always claimed to be to eliminate demons and protect the Tao.
But reason told him that he didn't know enough about the world outside the fortress. After witnessing Lingtong's fighting power, Wang Jixuan saw the strength of the blade beast from the side.
And in his previous introduction to Lingtong, he heard a word repeatedly:
Terror mecha.
Lingtong's greatest value is that she is the alternate pilot of the 'Terror Mecha'. What Wang Jixuan saw was not all of Lingtong's strength.
In addition, through some casual contacts, Wang Jixuan has realized that the way Lingtong becomes stronger is an act of overdrafting himself.
[Then can you think of a way to hunt down blade beasts to obtain crystal cores, and at the same time use the technological power here to protect yourself and survive the most vulnerable period of foundation building? 】
Wang Jixuan kept thinking about it.
The new discovery cheered him up, and he suddenly had a clearer goal.
He offered to catch Kong Nu below, but he actually wanted to take this opportunity to enter the psyker's station to find those crystal nuclei.
——Crystal cores are used to infuse materials to produce psykers. There is a set of simple equipment in this psyker station. It is very likely that there are crystal cores that have not been drained of spiritual power!
Taoist Wang looked up at Zhou Zhengde and advised: "Team Zhou, let's take a rest and conserve our energy."
"Mu Liang, I'm thinking about a few questions!"
Zhou Zhengde glanced at the camera in the corner of the elevator and said in a serious voice: "Never take out your paper charms later. Try to keep them for yourself."
"Um?"
"The situation is now out of control. To be precise, it is out of our control."
Zhou Zhengde whispered:
"I was not thinking carefully. I didn't expect Professor Zhuang and Kong Nu to actually set up a secret laboratory under the Black Fire Gang. This matter will definitely involve a power struggle at the war zone level.
"If these alien secrets of yours are targeted by the Psychic City of the Thirteen Headquarters, it will be over. We'd better study them secretly and slowly.
"What Zheng Shiduo just explained is probably not false. I have obtained a lot of one-sided information through my investigation, which can be matched with what he said.
"The psyker rebellion more than sixty years ago, the psionic council composed of SS-class psykers... Lingtong and Zheng Shiduo have so much information that we didn't know before.
"The Thirteen Headquarters in the Psychic Capital, this is a powerful force that my grandfather cannot fight alone."
Wang Jixuan nodded slowly.
If you can successfully use the fortress to shelter for a period of time, it will naturally be the best choice.
If that doesn't work, he can also leave the fortress on his own initiative and enter the realm of the Blade Beast.
Although that would be very dangerous, and he might become the target of attacks by both blade beasts and human armies.
This was his last resort, and he didn't want to take it easily.
Zhou Zhengde walked around for a while and whispered: "I need to contact my mother and the consul. We can't just get rid of Kong Nu."
Wang Jixuan asked in confusion: "What else should I do?"
"How about we fake an death?"
Zhou Zhengde lowered his voice to the lowest level: "You give me a name now, and I will arrange a new identity for you. I will have plastic surgery directly in Shangcheng. Only you and I know about this matter, and Wei Na also has to hide it. ”
"But the smell cannot be changed, and there are also biological waveforms and biological information."
Wang Jixuan shook his head:
"There is no need for plastic surgery or fake death. Just modify Mu Liang's information and change his name to Wang Zheng, Zheng Zheng."
Wang Zheng is his secular name;
Ji Xuan is his Taoist title, and the master gave it to him because he liked refining weapons.
Wang Jixuan added: "If I judge that there is danger here, I will leave Fortress No. 76 myself."
Zhou Zhengde was stunned for a moment: "Leave? Where else can you go? The fortress is our last home."
"Hide to other forts. I remember that there are material transportation paths between the forts."
Wang Jixuan smiled peacefully:
"Don't worry about me, Team Zhou, you have helped me a lot, and I will definitely repay you.
"Team Zhou, do we want to go directly to the upper city now?"
Zhou Zhengde didn't care about the word 'repay'.
He said quickly: "I need time to arrange it uptown, and these elevators can only reach the seventh floor. From the seventh floor to the sixth floor, you need to go through a checkpoint."
"Okay, then I'll go back and change my clothes. I'll at least put on my combat uniform and helmet. Can you help me get that big sniper?"
"Well……"
Zhou Zhengde was a little hesitant: "Shangcheng is a training base for soldiers. We can't easily start a war in Shangcheng. There is almost no way to cover it.
"I'll try my method first. If it doesn't work, I will support you to do Kong Nu.
"Also, Mu Liang, if my method can't solve him, I must let me fire the last shot that killed Kong Nu.
"The auxiliary chips on these senior researchers will capture images through their visual nerves and automatically upload images of the killers to the Psychic City. This is also a means of deterring psykers and others."
Wang Jixuan nodded lightly.
He looked at the right hand stretched out in front of him, chuckled, and shook Zhou Zhengde's hand tightly.
…
after an hour.
The third level of the fortress is the home of the psykers.
Kong Nu's fingers were trembling a little, and he repeated the action of taking off his glasses twice before barely completing it.
This past week, he seemed to have aged more than ten years.
The psyker's home is the general name for the psyker's residence in the fortress. It is located in the northwest area of the third level of the fortress. There is a large restricted area that the residents of the upper city are not allowed to approach. However, it is prohibited to build any fortifications here. It looks like a beautiful area. villa area. Although the third level of the fortress is still more than a hundred meters from the surface;
Thanks to the ‘sunlight transmission’ devices throughout the upper city, there will be sufficient light here during the day.
The 'big villa' for offices where Kong Nu was currently located was bathed in warm sunlight.
More than a dozen psykers stood and sat everywhere outside the office with their mouths tightly pursed, and many of them had injuries on their bodies.
More than a hundred guards recruited illegally by the House of Psykers are currently ambushing the entire area with guns and ammunition, closely monitoring the movements everywhere.
This area is extremely depressing.
First, the Battle Girl suddenly appeared in the lower city and completely destroyed all their arrangements;
At this moment, just outside the psyker's home, more than 20 armored vehicles blocked all the entrances and exits on the surface.
Heavily armed warriors wearing exoskeleton armor, carrying powerful electromagnetic guns, set up snipers at commanding heights everywhere. Although no heavy firepower was seen, these crossfires could easily kill these D-class and E-class psykers. .
This is the fighting force mobilized by the fortress archon.
The method mentioned by Zhou Zhengde.
Now, Zhou Zhengde is trying hard to persuade the consul to directly issue an attack order, while the consul and ministers are still waiting for orders from the war zone.
The air pressure in Kong Nu's office was extremely low.
Ye Ye, who had put on a red dress, was being pulled by a plump middle-aged woman and sitting on the sofa in the corner of the office, with two older young girls beside her.
They are Kong Nu's family.
Or a new family member recognized by Kong Nu.
jingle!
Kong Nu grabbed the phone on the corner of the table, and the psychics outside the office looked in at the same time.
A tired old voice sounded from the receiver:
"Lingtong has found out. The people I sent were restrained by Lingtong. You are so ridiculous, Kong Nu, you don't even have that kind of laboratory." Install a self-destruct device!”
Kong Nu's Adam's apple trembled a few times: "The self-destruction device at the bottom may destroy the protective structure outside the fortress...Professor Zhuang...and I installed it, but the signal was lost, a few months ago..."
"Very good, well done! They now have a perfect handle on me. I just handed over the control of the psykers in the D5 War Zone! Now I am just a bad old man who is purely engaged in scientific research!"
The old man opposite sighed:
“I admit that the experiments I conducted were unethical and a little risky, but this is the price that must be borne for the advancement of psychic science.
“But you went too far, Kong Nu.
"Is an E-class psyker worth paying such a high price? You went so far as to threaten the grandson of the Commander-in-Chief.
"I'm really confused, Kong Nu. I'm a bad old man on the front line. I don't know where the Commander-in-Chief's family is. You're in Fortress 76, and you don't even know that their mother and son are there! You didn't give them to you. Did the consul give a toast?"
Kong Nu smiled miserably: "So, Professor, I, Kong Nu, have worked hard for more than thirty years, but I finally lost to these powerful people, right?"
"Whatever you want to understand, do you think the Commander-in-Chief is just a powerful person? He has saved one-twentieth of humanity many times."
The old man over there said helplessly: "I can understand your mood of wanting to enter the spiritual capital. That is your ideal, although it is an ideal born after being brainwashed.
"For the sake of our friendship for so many years... let me give you another reminder.
"Don't go on that plane you called for, the war zone is ready to kill you in the air, that plane is locked.
"An air crash is the easiest way to erase all traces of a senior researcher, and it is also difficult to investigate in the Psychic City.
"You go to Fortress 82 to hide first. Go to your old lover. Those psykers from Fortress 82 are waiting for you at Gate 9 of the fortress. You have a way to get there, right? I'll get it here The intelligence shows that you are surrounded. I am helping you delay them, but I don't dare to say anything now. I can't delay it for too long.
"The Commander-in-Chief will really beat me to death!" "What else do you know about that E-class psyker, the Mu Liang you named Black Storm?" "
Kong Nu whispered: "Professor, I only know that he is definitely not a psyker from our Thirteenth Order."
"It's interesting. The military has made a breakthrough in infusion technology? Then we are all doomed."
The old man smiled bitterly:
“Over there in the Psychic City, they are planning to express their strong dissatisfaction with the massacre of psykers in Fortress 76.
"They should probably take action on this E-class psyker, but it has nothing to do with me anymore... I'm really convinced!" "Kong Nu, how much of the funds I gave you have you embezzled? Can you cut corners on the self-destruction device in the laboratory? You are so greedy my student! I suddenly had nothing! I!
"Forget it, I wish you peace, your academic level is still good."
The other side hung up the phone.
Kong Nu lowered his head and rubbed his brow, winked hard, and looked up into the corner.
"Honey, take the children to Gate No. 9 and go there immediately. Someone will take you to Fortress No. 82."
"Lao Kong," the middle-aged woman asked in a low voice, "What about you?"
"I'm waiting for the plane locked by the missile."
Kong Nu whispered:
"Where else can I hide? Without Professor Zhuang's secret, what value do I have?
"Originally, I wanted to use the following places to threaten Professor Zhuang and ask him to protect us into the psychic city. It's useless now.
"The biology director of Fortress No. 76 deserves the last dignity."
He looked at Ye Zi whose face was full of confusion and sighed softly:
"Sorry, Ye Zi, I can't take care of you anymore."
The middle-aged woman held Ye Zi and her two daughters in her arms, sobbing softly.
The leaves' eye circles are slightly red.
There was no unnecessary inseparable link, Kong Nu pressed a button, and several psykers came in from the door, and quickly left through the secret door with his family members.
Kong Nu said again: "Everyone, please go back to your residence. Don't worry about the follow-up. I ordered you to do everything. Don't resist the search... It's been a hard work working together over the years."
The psykers outside the office didn't say much and dispersed silently.
"well……"
Kong Nu sighed, opened the drawer, took out a treasured cigar, lit it with familiar movements, and placed a photo in front of him, which showed an old woman wearing a red sweater.
He smoked his cigar silently, with a bit of nostalgia in his eyes.
Ding ding!
A text switch vibrated.
[Mr. Li: The arrangements have been made, come quickly. 】
Kong Nu squinted his eyes and put the cigar on the table to let it smolder slowly while grinning.
He picked up the briefcase hidden under the chair and stood up quickly, walked to the bookshelf aside, and pushed the bookshelf open to reveal a narrow passage diagonally downwards, with a ventilation duct diagonally upwards connected to the back.
"Fuck decency."
Kong Nu rushed in and quickly took off his suit.
