When he was in Fengri City, Shen Hao was sitting in the public room directing the people in various places to carry out errands. Although there was no lag, there were some situations that he still needed to see with his own eyes before he could rest assured.
Blackwater is crucial in the Black Flag Battalion's system, and Blackwater's biggest mission right now is the "Primarch Plan." This is also the first time Blackwater has done a similar task. So Shen Hao arranged time to come over and have a look after his business trip.
Now that I have come to take a look, I feel confident.
In terms of security, there is a main battalion of the Jingxi Army and four commanders. Most situations can be dealt with calmly.
And the station construction of the entire original body plan was not much better than Shen Hao expected.
But there are also surprises. From Wang Jian's previous report, Shen Hao only knew that those survivors who had taken "Red Evil" had the ability to erode the soul energy and vitality of living creatures, but this statement was somewhat false. Now after personally contacting those survivors, Shen Hao discovered that the other party's corrosive ability had obvious characteristics, and was very similar to an evil spirit he had encountered.
When he was ambushed and killed by the evil monks before, Shen Hao saw the powerful methods of the evil monks: "the evil spirits of his own destiny", and the evil spirits also had a field that eroded the energy of the outside soul and eroded the vitality.
People also have evil spirits...fields?
Field is a collective name for a continuous range of magic means. Previously, Shen Hao had always believed that taking "Red Devil" was a kind of "ability" produced by snakes, just like snakes can capture odors by relying on phosphorus, and bats can send and receive ultrasonic waves.
But now it seems that we can't draw a conclusion on this.
We ate in the valley at noon. There was a canteen in the "garrison area". Even the style of the food was similar to that in the Black Flag Camp in Fengri City. Shen Hao was naturally used to it, especially Black Flag. Ying's specialty is braised pork, and he can cook a large bowl of it by himself.
In addition to Hou Yinghan, those who ate together were the three alchemists and doctors who Shen Hao had treated to hot pot before in Fengri City.
After finishing the meal, accompanied by the three alchemists and doctors, they walked around the "Forbidden Area One" and "Forbidden Area Two". Finally, he sat down to rest in Hou Yinghan's public house.
"Three of you, the progress of the reverse recovery of "Red Devil" is gratifying, and the three of you have contributed a lot!" Shen Hao took a sip of tea and directly expressed his affirmation of what he had seen in the "Forbidden Zone One" before. It is surprising that over time, nearly 50% of the effects of "Red Evil" can be restored in reverse. It's not an exaggeration to say this is "super fast".
Hearing what Shen Hao said, the three people in charge of the main research on the opposite side were also happy and said with a smile: "This is not all our fault, the brothers from the Black Flag Battalion also helped a lot.
Everything is going well so far. As long as we continue to observe and summarize the trial results of imitation products, we feel that there should be a big breakthrough before the end of this year. "
the end of this year? It's only early January, so this statement leaves enough room for caution.
"The three of them are experts in elixirs. I would like to ask, are the changes in the survivors who swallowed the "Red Evil" really the "ability" produced by special alienation?" General Shen Hao He asked the doubts in his heart. This didn't exist before he came, but after personal contact, doubts arose again in his heart.
However, the answer Shen Hao got did not change from before.
"Why did Mr. Shen say this? Those survivors are currently in a stable condition. The special changes in their bodies are indeed caused by the "Red Evil", and they are the same twelve hours a day. There is no change. That is It is said that even when they are sleeping, they are still spreading corrosive power around them.
However, magic methods must be realized with active consciousness. Therefore, we put the changes brought about by "Red Evil" on "ability".
Master Shen doesn't need to worry about this. "
When Shen Hao asked, the alchemist opposite smiled and gave an explanation. It was obvious that they had also studied Shen Hao's concerns and came up with specific results.
In response to the other party's answer, Shen Hao could only nod, but didn't say much. How could he not know that magic methods require conscious guidance? But the problem is that he always feels that something is wrong.
After thinking about it, Shen Hao continued to ask: "I once fought with a cultivator who had evil spirits. It was so dangerous at that time that I still remember it vividly. I went to the residential area in the morning and met many survivors. , personally experienced the corrosive power on their bodies, and found that the corrosive power on these survivors was very similar to the corrosive field on the evil spirits of the evil monks.
That's why I asked just now. Please ask three of you to clarify your doubts. "
"My destiny is evil?" The three of them looked at each other, doubts suddenly appeared on their faces, but they shook their heads after a while. One of them said: "Master Shen, although this thing of destiny is mysterious at present, there are few such things in Xuanqing Guard. Records. However, everything remains true to its origin. Even the field is a category of magic means, and it also requires conscious guidance before it can be used.
Those survivors didn't know any magic at all, and there was no sign of consciousness pulling them, so even if they were similar to the original evil erosion field, it should be just a coincidence. After all, both the original evil spirit and the "red evil spirit" were created by evil monks, so it is normal for them to be similar. "
This explanation makes sense, even if Shen Hao thinks about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with it.
Maybe I really got it wrong? Shen Hao couldn't help but think of this.
After coming out of the valley of the original plan, Shen Hao temporarily suppressed the thorns in his heart. On the carriage, he asked Wang Jian and Zhang Liao about Heishui's recent situation and the problems they encountered.
Fortunately, Wang Jian is seen often. Zhang Liao is now in charge of the Impermanence Department, but Shen Haoke has not been seen for a long time.
"Sir, Blackwater has currently expanded its manpower by 20%, and the follow-up can be completed before July this year. At present, the main focus is on laying the groundwork for missionary teams in various places. Those who have been transferred are all veterans, and the new recruits are filling in. The vacancies for those veterans who were transferred away.
However, the current situation in various places is not very good. "
Wang Jian first talked about the overall situation, and then Zhang Liao, who was in charge of the Impermanence Department, took over and continued: "Because there was a breakthrough in Jingxi before, the evil monks are now shrinking everywhere, and their counterattacks are fierce. . The spies would have to turn in if they were not careful, and the missionary team behind them also encountered great resistance. Basically 60% of the villages had direct confrontations and there were many casualties. It may be difficult for the people's emotions to change in a short period of time. Change.”
The Impermanence Department is responsible for "operations", so the Impermanence Department also participates in the early intelligence collection for various places and provides military support. Therefore, Zhang Liao has a deep understanding of the situation in various places.
To sum it up in three words: it’s not easy to handle.
