Steel steam and flame

In the next two days, continuous experiments brought Cassia's grasp of body information to about 78%. I have a completely new feeling about myself, as if I have just come into contact with this special body. Cassia doesn't care much about the growth of strength and the like. The previous limitations have disappeared, and subsequent practice will make it grow even more.

What is interesting is that in terms of perception, the acuity and range have been greatly improved. The sound wave detection has been greatly enhanced due to the information capture of the body tissues around the throat. In addition, the tissue structures related to hearing are synchronized and linked together, and attacks such as low-pitched waves can achieve most of the effects of the scaly state in normal times.

The detection radius limit of acoustic pulses continues to grow to nearly six kilometers. In Cassia's view, the huge range is currently not practical. It was tested on the mountains, and the huge consumption meant that it could only be used at some special moments. After maintaining it for thirty seconds, Cassia had to withdraw from it due to dizziness. As the distance increases, within a limited range, such as detection within two to three kilometers, the sound capture becomes more refined. Cassia has the illusion of being able to integrate perception into sound wave pulses. The pictures that were previously purely drawn with lines are constantly evolving towards real scenes.

It was planned to continue to increase the information capture ratio to around 95%, but around nine o'clock in the morning on the sixteenth day, a communication came from Waters. Cassia immediately stopped the experiment, buried everything and returned directly to Waters' residence. When he arrived there in the afternoon, he and Winifer were already waiting there.

Having already learned some information in the communication, Cassia did not speak, went to sit down next to the two of them, and picked up the information on the table to read. A few pieces of printing paper and two photos. What was written on the paper was more like a list, recording what the other party wanted from Winifer. At the end, it was like writing a contract, indicating their side's bargaining chips. .

"April David." There was only such a person's name written down, nothing else.

Among the two photos, one was a necklace, and Cassia recognized that it was exactly the same as the one on Winifer's micro-control core. The other picture was taken in an unknown town - there were no high-rise buildings around, and the ground was a very simple stone road. Two-thirds of the photo is taken up by a small two-story building. There is a garden in front of this small building. In the garden are clusters of half-withered flowers, and a woman is bending down and doing something in it.

Although the female member in the photo only had a profile face, it was too easy for Winifer to identify who she was.

"The other party gave us a week to put the things at the designated location." Waters added details, "They hired people to spread this information. There are many people who have the same information. It is almost impossible to track the enemy from them. It's possible. And the employers of these people are also intermediaries in the black market. The enemy finally got this information into our hands after several layers of contact."

"Then there are a few important points. First, why is it the Chil Kingdom? The approximate scope is basically accurate. We placed the suspect on the pharmaceutical expert. Because the bounty hunters and mercenaries hired by neighboring countries , I also use an intermediary, and the only time the location may be exposed is when the sample is sent for testing."

"It's too far and there's not enough time." Cassia shook her head, "The pharmacy expert can't possibly know more information."

"The second one is my own intuition. Judging from the other party's methods, he is very familiar with this place. It doesn't just refer to the Kingdom of Chir. I think that the other party has been investigating Mr. Winifer's matter, so there is a special The person in charge has stayed in this small country all year round. In other words, the other party has arrived in the Chir Kingdom in the past two or three weeks. The reason why they did not take immediate action is because they are waiting for the support team."

"By extension, they have now mastered the distribution of power in the Qil Kingdom. We should also be one of the targets. However, looking at it this way, there is good news."

Waters nodded: "Assuming it is true, the other party is somewhere inside the Chir Kingdom at the moment. It's just not clear whether the location they mentioned is a reference."

"The remaining key points need to be answered by Mr. Winifer for us." Waters and Cassia both looked at Winifer, who was silent. "What is the importance of April David? Can she give up? Or, ensuring her survival is the highest priority. And who she is, and why the enemy is so confident that she alone can exchange the items on the list."

Silence was natural, the three of them didn't speak for a while, and everyone in the room seemed to be gone in an instant.

After a while, Winifer glanced at the two of them without any expression, knowing that silence could no longer replace an answer at this moment. He spoke with a complicated tone: "If the other party really abides by the agreement, I will immediately exchange the information." It was like expressing his determination.

"But the chance that the other party will abide by the agreement is almost zero." Cassia said, "You know best, Mr. Winifer. You can choose some information to tell us, not all the information that can remind us, so that we can There’s some judgment involved.”

"We are classmates. She has also participated in the research of kinetic energy armor, but it is not the company I work for, but a research institution of the national army. She works as the secretary of a professor there." At this time, he took out the micro-control core , "This core is actually not complete. It would be more accurate to say it was a failed test. There is also a lot of technical information she brought to me. She also learned it from the research institution and then told it to me."

"Then something happened to me. At that time, I didn't think too much. I thought she would also be a target, so I let her escape with me. But the pursuit never stopped. I knew that one day I would be caught up, so I let her leave midway. But looking at it now, it would have been better for her to stay in the military research institution when I escaped by myself. Without evidence, and the big family blocked the information, the military would not know that anyone had leaked it. I learned some information about kinetic armor. Although it is not very important, even if it is exposed, at most I will lose my job." Regretful and helpless, Winifer believed that this decision was very wrong, but no matter what time, he could not make up for it.

"Does the other party also know her identity?" Cassia asked.

"I know, but because she escaped with me, she is no longer a member of the research organization. Her identity is probably the same as mine, and she will work as a mechanic in the future. I taught her a lot before letting her leave. But about kinetic armor I have all the information here. There is so much information that it can’t be remembered by just one person’s head.”

"It's difficult to handle. The other party knows the relationship between you two, and the initiative is now on their side." Cassia said thoughtfully, and then looked at Winifer, "Mr. Winifer, I want to say something else first. Things." Looking into Winifer's eyes, Cassia continued, "If you think nothing will happen to Miss April, you must obey our arrangements in the next plan. At the same time, you must also understand that without our help , you go there by yourself. The best outcome is that you will be imprisoned and tortured continuously to force you to hand over the information. The worst outcome is that you and Miss April will both die and the information will go into the hands of the enemy. No matter what the situation, I You don’t even want to accept it, right?”
