In the Taishan area, inside the headquarters of Shenzhou Jieyi Society, Hong Siya, the president of this generation, hung up the communication with Jiang Zisheng and immediately came down from the building.
Her office area is on the top floor of the building. Originally, there were multiple exits from the top floor, two high-speed elevators, and five ordinary electric elevators.
But just as Hong Siya gave instructions to her secretary, packed her bags and brought her knife, and was about to leave the office, she saw a figure in white on a tall building opposite from the floor-to-ceiling window.
She changed her mind, opened a glass door on the floor-to-ceiling window on the top floor, and stepped out.
From the top floor of this building, there is a high-altitude corridor directly connected to the rooftop of the shorter building opposite.
This long corridor suspended in the sky is like a long bridge, spanning a distance of several hundred meters. Except for support points at both ends, the middle is completely suspended, but it is very stable.
The bottom of the corridor is made of a black high-performance material. The sides and top are also made of the same material, but they are transparent, allowing the outside to be seen.
The mist in the sky is misty, leaving meandering traces of water on the transparent outer wall of the corridor.
When Hong Siya walked on this high-altitude suspension bridge, it was like walking in a tunnel in the clouds. And when she walked through this corridor and reached the rooftop opposite, the person she saw was like an ancient philosopher emerging from the clouds.
"Mr. Fifth, why are you here?"
Standing on the rooftop is a young-looking man with gentle eyes. He has white eyebrows and white hair, and a flame-like pattern between his eyebrows. The pure white robe on his body is quite classical. Although the color is simple and elegant, it is not luxurious, but the style is complicated. , girdle the waist inside, wear a robe outside, and take care of it meticulously.
There is also a long string of glass beads wrapped around his wrist. The pure beads are passed through by white thread, wrapped around the wrist, and hung between the fingers and palms. There is still a large section hanging down, accompanied by white tassels, hanging in the air. .
This person looks and dresses like an ancient person, but he is very harmonious with this vast and mottled metropolis. He is one of the three most powerful people in the coalition regime. His surname is Fifth and his given name is Mingjing.
"President Hong."
The Fifth Mirror put one palm up in front of his chest and said hello. His eyes were still looking from the rooftop to the outside, as if he was looking for something.
"President Hong should also be aware of the recent attacks on official TV stations, construction teams, and large factories in several major cities."
"These things were initially regarded as cases caused by extremists, but their leaders could not be caught many times. The scale of the cases became larger and larger, and the emergency level was raised all the way. Now it has been handed over to me."
"I found something and traced it here."
Of course Hong Siya knew what he was talking about.
Twenty days ago, a large city in the southeast of the coalition government was preparing for a television celebration of the success of the "Sixth Phase Plan for Urban Population Distribution and Housing".
On the day of the live broadcast of the celebration, the TV building was attacked. Less than ten TV station staff and guests participating in the celebration survived, and all others were infected by an unnamed virus.
This virus will form blue-purple crystals on the surface of the human body. When the staff uses psychic energy or comes into contact with psychic energy-related equipment, the growth rate of the crystals will double.
When the TV station was attacked, someone tried to activate the psychic resonance shield inside the building. As a result, 99% of the people in the building were completely frozen by the virus crystals.
The second case, less than five hours apart from the first case, occurred in a large city in the northwest.
Because that place was located in an earthquake zone during the disaster-prone period, and was on the verge of a desert, with strong sandstorms, etc., it was extremely damaged. After many local organizations were taken over by the coalition government, the coalition government has been repairing and rebuilding it. Work.
The members of the construction team include strong laborers selected from the local area, as well as people directly dispatched from the coalition forces. They all have good psychic potential, so they can easily use psychic resonance technology to control some large machinery.
As a result, after encountering the crystal virus, the construction team in the Northwest suffered heavy losses. More than 2,000 people were covered in crystals and fell into a critical state like a vegetative state. About 4,000 people were also covered in virus crystals to varying degrees.
In the following period, similar cases occurred frequently in various places, all using the same type of virus.
Several large factories under the Shenzhou Jieyi Society that produce psychic projection learning glasses were also attacked, with varying degrees of losses.
Projection learning glasses are the top priority of many industries of the Shenzhou Jieyi Society after the catastrophe, and they have received the full support of the coalition government.
Because after the great catastrophe, human beings were scattered all over the place, working on their own affairs, and created countless new organizations, of which the good and the bad were mixed, and many of them were simply the methods of gangs and warlords.
Humanity's technology has not been lost much, but cities have been destroyed, the population has been severely damaged, almost the whole world is in turmoil, and the degree of civilization of people's hearts has been set back by at least two centuries.
In just a dozen years, in some remote areas, there have even been cases where young people are illiterate and people with ulterior motives regard psychic technology as a miracle for them to worship.
When the coalition government is formally formed, the survivors' cities will be brought under their control one by one, and education will be popularized again and moral and legal awareness will be established.
Shenzhou Jieyishe's projection learning glasses are cheap and high-quality. They can easily help people strengthen their memory and learn a lot of basic knowledge. I don't know how much teaching staff is saved.
After those large factories were hit by the virus, not only did Shenzhou Jieyishe lose its own profits, but the original supply chain also became tight. Many orders had to be rushed and rushed, and other workers were asked to increase their wages and work overtime. Able to barely deliver.
Hong Siya has been worried about this matter recently. When she heard about it, she couldn't help but get angry and asked, "Has Mr. Fifth found out the traces of the culprit?"
Fifth Mirror has a very high position in the coalition government, but he has no airs. Hearing this, he said directly: "I just have some clues."
"The group of extremists who used the virus to attack seemed to be vigorous and powerful. They were able to be distributed all over the place, echoing each other and taking actions one after another."
"In fact, after careful inspection, most of the members they have shown up are bionic robots designed with intelligent programs. With the cooperation of a few bewitched fanatics and internal personnel who were blackmailed and did not know the truth, they created a human Numerous, the illusion of a large organization.”
"Some insiders don't even know about the virus attack. Basically, their family members are missing, being threatened, and doing some small actions that seem insignificant to them. People who threaten them often pretend that they want to take revenge and suppress their Be wary."
When Fifth Mirror said this, he couldn't help but shook his head.
After his recent investigation, he found that in more than twenty large-scale cases, the methods used to threaten internal agents were all the same. Even the information used to blackmail them was copied entirely, with only two or three words changed.
It was precisely this monotonous method that caused so much damage.
Moreover, if it were not for the Fifth Mirror, it would be difficult for other investigators to distinguish among the many victims the existence of "inside agents" who have also been harmed by the virus.
"If this series of cases is actually investigated, it is almost certain that the organization behind the creation of the virus has very few members, because in many places, if it is done by humans, it will do a much better job than those guaranteed robots with only intelligent programs. .”
Fifth Mirror said, “There are only two things this organization really relies on. One is their crystallized virus, which we currently have no effective means of containing. The other is that the technology of their bionic robots is extremely advanced and they are simply amazing. It is so seamless that unless there is a certain period of face-to-face communication and the dullness of the intelligent program is directly discovered, it is impossible to tell whether those bionic robots are humans or machines with just some scanning equipment."
Hearing this, Hong Siya thought thoughtfully and said: "The virus may still rely on individual genius inspiration, but the overall bionic robot technology involves all aspects and must be supported by a complete research system."
"Currently in the world, the one with bionic prosthetics that clearly surpasses the coalition government is Baye's side."
Fifth Mirror nodded: "They seem to treat these cases as experiments. After obtaining the experimental data, each time the virus used has undergone some fine-tuning compared to the last time. In the recent cases, this kind of fine-tuning has The phenomenon no longer exists, indicating that they have reached a bottleneck or are close to the completion state. If there is the shadow of Eight Leaves behind them..."
Then at this time, it is time to send this technology back to Baye.
The base stations and satellites within the coalition government are all under their own strict control. People in Baye have no way to carry out remote data transmission within the territory of the coalition government.
The most reliable method is to provide human escort to leave the coalition power and enter Baye.
Before Fifth Mirror finished speaking, he suddenly rolled up the sleeve of his left hand. At some point, an ant crawled onto his sleeve.
"I felt some clues and guessed their possible route, and then I arrived in this city."
He pinched the ant with the thumb and middle finger of his right hand, his fingertips were red and his nails were crystal clear, and he flicked it.
Under the building, three thousand meters away, a big tree next to the road suddenly shook violently.
There seemed to be something behind the tree, which was hit by a huge force and made a clicking sound.
The branches rustled and leaves fell.
Under the light, the shadows of the trees were mottled and swaying. Suddenly, under the sparse light spots, there was a complex and classic white dress.
Green leaves fell on the shoulders, and the white tassels of rosary hanging from the Fifth Mirror's wrist were still swaying gently.
After a blink of an eye, Hong Siya, with short hair, glasses, a black casual suit, and a knife in her left hand, also arrived.
Xiaoshuting app
"That's it."
The bark of the big tree was black and had many cracked folds. The Fifth Mirror picked up a small spider from the folds behind the tree.
The spider had eight black legs and looked unremarkable. Its back was even slightly cracked, and a thick serous liquid oozed out, as if it were the tissue fluid of an arthropod.
After Hong Siya reached out and took it, she realized something was wrong.
The body of this little black spider is unusually strong.
You know, she is a seventh-level psyker. Even the gold and titanium alloys used in aerospace materials can be kneaded in her hands like plasticine with a slight push of her fingertips. .
But this spider couldn't be pinched, and she had to exert serious force to break it open with her nails.
"This is also a bionic machine. Although the material is extraordinary, its real strength is detection."
Fifth Mirror said, "I noticed the existence of this kind of thing near every crime scene. I didn't know why at first, so I captured some. Later I discovered that the biggest use of this kind of thing is to escape from the coalition government. The radar independently detects the presence of psykers of level seven or above within two kilometers, and transmits the coordinates back to the main body that releases these bionic mechanical bugs."
Hong Siya's heart skipped a beat and she said: "Within two kilometers, it can detect the presence of psychics above the seventh level. Once it is detected, it will be able to maintain sufficient strength no matter where the psychic goes. Keep up the distance?"
The Fifth Mirror nodded: "Powerful psykers usually do not move too fast for no reason. This bionic spider has the function of tracking. This kind of robot bug has no ability other than detection, tracking and reporting. The lethality and concealment effect are extremely high, even with your strength, President Hong, you cannot easily detect it."
"However, if the person who releases the mechanical bug wants to receive the weak signal from this mechanical bug under the satellites of the coalition government, his own spiritual attainments are also extraordinary."
"If this inference about the support of Yaye behind the virus organization is true, then the person who released the mechanical bugs should be one of the four mountain masters of Yaye, the Dakini who specializes in intelligence."
Dakini has no shadow in the realm of form and can see all appearances.
Hong Siya's brows furrowed, and a burst of fire erupted from her fingertips, burning the remains of the bionic spider alive.
"This thing can only report a general direction, and cannot report too specific information. The Dakini scattering this kind of thing everywhere should be to avoid the powerful people who are pursuing this series of cases as much as possible."
Fifth Mirror sighed, "Although I got rid of this spider outside its detection range, I'm not sure if there are other bionic mechanical bugs with the same effect around."
Hong Siya said decisively: "Then we have to pursue it. The five cities of Mianshan have been occupied by Baye. Now it seems that this action, in addition to expanding the territory and robbing the population, may also be to make it easier to meet the dakinis."
"I happen to be going there. Mr. Fifth, please come with me."
Her eyes moved slightly, and a cluster of flames rose from her fingertips. Between the cracks in the bark, an ant slowly crawled out.
Fifth Mirror quickly stopped and said: "This is just an ordinary ant. Although it tried to bite me, I used it to get rid of the harm. The cause and effect has been repaid, so it is not possible to harm its life."
The ant crawled out, shaking its head, and seemed a little dizzy.
The straight-line distance between the building and the tree is about three kilometers from the ground, but when Fifth Mirror popped up the ant from the top of the building, the ant flew even further.
And it was the force carried by this ant that penetrated the tree body and destroyed the bionic spider.
Hong Siya looked at the ant crawling on the tree with great vigor, and couldn't help but admired: "Mr. Fifth's ability is getting better and better."
"Old Yan and Brother Hei are wise as saints on the inside and as soldiers on the outside. I'm just playing tricks on them."
Fifth Mirror said, "There are so many talented people here at Mount Tai that we should not ignore them. I have gotten rid of many bionic bugs, but it is becoming more and more difficult to get rid of them completely. I really should try to find the true body of the Dakini."
"Without further ado, let's head to Mian Mountain."
