"This is intelligence."
Gavin took out a note and put it on the table, pressed it with his fingers and gently pushed it in front of the girl.
He got three banknotes from Gina, which contained information about Valentine, Balrog and Rhode Island.
Night Owl came to Siesta because of Valentine, so she only needed to know this part.
It was Gavin's job to deal with the other information.
Perhaps because his voice was too soft, Ye Xiao didn't react at all, still staring at the golden and blue outside the window.
From the moment Gavin entered the room to now, she has maintained this posture without blinking her eyelids.
It seemed as if everything around him was just air, and even the sour feeling in his eyes was false.
Gavin was already used to this.
This is what Night Owl, or people like her, look like.
…
Behind Rhine Life is the Colombian government, which has long been a secret known to everyone. As the top biological laboratory in Terra, this group of mad scientists can do anything they can imagine with their toes when they get together.
In 1079, with an order from the Colombian government, the humanoid weapons project was officially launched at the Rhine Life Laboratory.
It's just that the level of technology at that time was not as good as it is now, and it was the first time for scientists to set foot in the field of human body modification, so the plan didn't seem so tragic at the time, and it was more suitable to be called the perfect soldier training plan.
But perfect soldiers are not what the Colombian government wants.
What that group of politicians want is a "weapon" that has unimaginable power and wisdom, can influence wars by one person, and absolutely obeys orders.
The important thing in the name "Humanoid Weapon" is the weapon, not the human form.
It doesn't matter what you look like as long as you meet the requirements.
Therefore, after cultivating several warrior kings whose physical fitness far exceeded that of ordinary people, the plan entered the second stage and truly entered the right track of "humanoid weapons".
It's just that at this stage, Rhine Life focused too much on combat ability and neglected the mental part. As a result, the experimental subjects all turned into lunatics or monsters with excellent destructive capabilities, causing even greater losses than the later "Fire Demon Project." .
Then the congressmen were not happy again. Allocating so much money to you is to allow you to develop a god of war who can bang and smash the enemy on the battlefield, not to create a bunch of lunatics who can bang and smash their own things.
What's going on?
It was at this time that a researcher named Andrea came up with the "key" and brought the plan into the third stage.
"Isis" Valentine, "Dragon" Xing Yihuang and "Fire Demon" Ifrit are the products of the third phase of the humanoid weapons project.
Then came the story of Isis's escape, Andrea's murder and the Balrog's rampage.
But no matter how much the loss is, as long as there are no orders from above, the humanoid weapons project must continue.
The remaining researchers improved the key through the information left by Andrea, increasing its output but reducing its effectiveness.
In particular, the side effects of the drug are weakened. After taking the drug, it will not cause too painful mental torture to the experimental subjects, but will disintegrate their inner world in a peaceful way.
Like a knife cutting through butter, slow, gentle but sharp.
Night Owl is the result of this phase.
Rhine Life erased most of her original personality and created a brand new personality that met the above requirements.
Because he is positioned as an assassin, Night Owl has become as cold as ice.
But as long as the task requires, she can transform into a woman with any personality in a second.
In addition, her body has also undergone several transformations, becoming extremely suitable for the title of "Assassin".
Today's Night Owl is not so much a human as it is a machine loaded with almost all efficient killing methods and human emotions.
There is no pain, no sadness, there is always only the task in my mind.
When the fully formed Night Owl appeared in front of Colombian senior officials, she was honored to be recognized by the other party and given a new title with an oriental style.
Death warrior.
…
Gavin left because there was really nothing more to say.
As Night Owl's partner, he knew this beautiful girl well. Humans and machines have no common language, even if the machine is also a human.
The door closed and silence returned to the room again. After a long time, Night Owl reached out to touch the note.
Didn't pick it up, just slowly ran my fingers across the surface.
The lines on the banknotes are fine and complex enough to prevent counterfeiting. But if it is modified, this pattern can also become a carrier of intelligence.
Just like reading Braille, Nite Owl did not use his eyes to see, but only used the tactile feedback on his fingertips to get the content.
She also instantly constructed Valentine's information grid in her mind.
In addition to these, the intelligence also mentioned that there was an operator in Rhode Island who was instigated to rebel, who could help her in the operation.
But this information was selectively ignored by Night Owl.
As one of the most perfect results of the humanoid weapons project so far, Night Owl is very aware of its capabilities. If the target of the assassination claims that it is difficult to deal with, she will need one or two cannon fodder.
But judging from the intelligence, Valentin just has a strong vitality and nothing else outstanding, so she can complete the task without any helpers.
The fewer people involved in an assassination, the fewer uncontrollable factors.
The operator who was incited to rebel was Gavin's only thing to worry about, she just had to raise her knife.
After the information was loaded, Ye Xiao took back his hand.
And the moment her fingers left the banknote, the tabletop seemed to come alive and swallowed up the banknote, leaving no trace behind.
Ye Xiao was still looking at the sea outside.
--------the other side--------
After handing over the information, the mission of the two sisters Jina came to an end, and they could finally have fun without any pressure.
In the afternoon, they visited some of Siesta's most famous attractions, and in the evening they had a seafood meal on the beach and had a great time.
What surprised Nancy the most was that her stingy sister didn't want to go back to Rhode Island to spend the night. Instead, she found a luxury hotel with a reception hall several times larger than their home.
Even Jina's hands didn't shake when she swiped her card, and she didn't look like her usual thrifty self at all.
After checking in, when Nancy asked why, the other party just handed over a bookmark.
It was the one Gavin gave her when she bought the book.
The style of the bookmark is relatively simple, with only a few English letters composed of lines and color blocks. Nancy didn't understand what it meant at first, but when she saw Gina lying on the sofa and turning the pages of a book, an idea came to her mind.
She recalled the decoding method inside Rhine's life and deciphered the meaning of these letters.
"Lang Ting".
Exactly what this hotel is named for.
"Follow-up tasks?"
Nancy put down the bookmark and whispered to herself.
She wanted to ask Jina if she had deciphered other information in the book, but she saw the "Old Man and the Sea" fluttering from her hand and floating in the air.
"Sister...has your Origin Stone skill been upgraded?"
This shocked Nancy.
Jina's Origin Stone skill is very strange, and she named it "Pathfinding".
She can use her Origin Stone skills to roughly determine the direction of a person or object and find a route to her destination. The deeper the understanding of the target, the more precise the direction and route will be.
In addition, she can also mark the end point for a smaller object, use Originium skills to quickly reach the end point, or return it to the starting point.
This is how the stone that tripped passers-by appeared this morning.
This Origin Stone skill looks magical, but it's actually not very useful. Pathfinding is very practical, but it requires a sufficient understanding of the target, otherwise it can only be used to point the direction.
Although it can move things, it can only work on very small objects, not slightly larger ones.
Just like the book floating in front of Jina at the moment.
And the fact that it can fly means that Jina's Origin Stone skills have been upgraded.
"right."
Recalling the scene in the bookstore in the afternoon, Jina nodded slightly.
She didn't expect that that immersive imagination would actually open the door in her heart and deepen her understanding of Origin Stone skills. Not only did the objects she could control become larger, but she could also control them more freely.
Just like floating.
Calibrate the end point of the book and give instructions to maintain the state when it reaches the end point, and the book will float.
If the end position is frequently changed, floating becomes flying.
If the ability is more detailed, the controllable things are replaced by molecules and atoms...
That Origin Stone skill becomes a miracle.
This is also the most recognized theory of Source Stone skills at present, that is, when all different Source Stone skills develop to a sufficient depth, they will become indistinguishable.
There are countless starting points, but only one end point.
The one who reaches the end is the god.
A deity as defined by the Lateran Church.
As for the existences called gods in other places, they are just people who have gone farther.
According to their standards, Valentine at this moment can also be called a god.
And Raphael was born a god.
…
"Then what do we do next?"
As soon as she saw the book, Nancy's mood suddenly changed.
I thought I could have a good rest after delivering the information, but I didn't expect that I still had work to do later.
And I don’t even know what the job is.
"Wait."
The book slowly lowered and fell into Jina's hands. She pointed to the bookmark that Nancy had just thrown on the table, and manipulated it to clip it into the book.
The movements were very slow, and Jina was getting used to this feeling.
Because of her undercover mission, she could not use a staff in the traditional sense. Instead, she used a silver bracelet wrapped with the Source Stone as a medium for casting spells.
The thing was currently being worn on her wrist.
"ah……"
Nancy wailed and fell down on the bed-like sofa.
Her travel plans were completely ruined.
