Xilin, Ci Jincheng, and Feng Haichao returned along the original route. Before taking action, they had planned several retreat routes. If they were discovered or for any other reason, they would have a way out, so they would not panic when the time came.
However, it has been more than ten minutes since Greer returned to his office. He has not responded at all, has not sounded the alarm, and has not sent additional personnel to check. It seems that Greer has not found anything abnormal, or has not found anything unusual. Didn't find anything in time, or is there some other reason?
It¡¯s not that Xilin was paranoid, he always felt strange in his heart. There was no sense of success in completing the task, and there was nothing to be happy about.
Strange¡¡
No matter what, there is indeed no alarm behavior in this experimental base. Ci Jincheng also took the time to notify others to evacuate, fearing that the alarm would sound the next moment, which would cause a lot of trouble.
The instruments carried by Knight and the others will automatically copy all the information that can be stolen in the area they are in. As long as they are not discovered, Knight and the others only need to move around. They do not need to deliberately crack the passwords of those databases themselves. This is somewhat practical. If the confidentiality level is too high, they will also struggle. The main task this time is to see if the "Dream Tapir" experiment is being carried out here and some related information. The rest is just incidental. Once Xilin and Ci Jincheng are discovered, others will create chaos everywhere to attract attention and share the pressure on Xilin's side.
Now it seems that things are going well.
After receiving the retreat message from Ci Jincheng, Knight took the other two people in his group to retreat according to the planned route. In this line of work, he saw a lot of research progress in fields related to the Sixth Army. It seemed that there was nothing particularly outstanding or advanced, which disappointed Knight. However, the news from Xilin diluted this disappointment.
Any information about the "Dream Tapir" is exciting. Now we are getting bit by bit. There is really too little information about this thing.
After rendezvous at the planned location, several people still left the same way they came before, waiting for incoming cargo ships or carrier aircraft, etc., found a suitable place to sneak in, and then left.
Somewhere outside the boundary of the Sixth Army's area, Conman was driving an aircraft and waiting with several others. After a Sixth Army cargo spacecraft left, Conman and his aircraft emerged from stealth, and In the sky not far away, a cat was dragging a few people flying towards here.
"That cat" The person next to Kang Man hesitated, with a very troubled expression on his face.
I didn¡¯t expect cats to have such uses.
Kangman shook his head, pressed the button, opened the hatch, and let people outside in.
"How's it going?" Before Xilin and the others could stand still, Kangman and others ran over and asked.
Ci Jincheng made a "success" gesture, and Conman also showed joy on his face. He ran back to the cockpit and started to return at full speed. He couldn't wait to know the information about those things.
Although this line of work does not seem very exciting, the information found is enough to excite everyone. With this information, the research on "Dream Tapir" will accelerate progress, and perhaps the expected catastrophe will be resolved in the near future.
Knight and others have already begun to rest. During this period of action, their nerves were tense. Even when being dragged by the gray cat, they were nervously alert to whether something would suddenly appear around them. Now that I'm finally back, I have to quickly regain my strength.
Ci Jincheng didn't rest and looked at the information in his hand. Because he was in action, he didn't have much time to look at this information, especially the core information about "Dream Tapir" that Xilin had obtained. Ci Jincheng quickly flipped through it. these research information.
Ghost Claw has found a place to hide and sleep, and Li Ci Jincheng is not far away. If the cat comes to bully it again, it can seek help from Ci Jincheng as soon as possible to avoid being plucked again.
In fact, the gray cat has no intention of caring about Ghost Claw. In its heart, Ghost Claw is not qualified enough. If it wants to fight, it should go to that smelly mouse anyway. If it wants to tease a pet, it must be of Blue Skin's size. Big guys who can play upright. If you want to play games, of course they are the ones like Xiying, Sigma, and Ayue. Therefore, no matter what the gray cat thinks, Ghost Claw is not within the scope of its consideration. When he has nothing to play with and nothing to eat, the gray cat has no choice but to sleep.
The gray cat, who was sleeping on Xilin's lap, did not sleep well. It could feel Xilin's mood, and such an aura was not suitable for sleeping.
"What's wrong?" The gray cat stretched out its claws and scratched Xilin's pants.
Xilin, who was thinking about it, looked down at the gray cat with a curious expression on his face and scratched its chin, "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about something, and I haven't figured out some things yet."
?"You humans just like to think blindly, and you can easily become an idiot if you think so much." The gray cat said seriously.
Xilin smiled and did not answer.
It¡¯s not easy to be heartless.
Xilin had a feeling that was very strange, but it wasn¡¯t a good feeling anyway. Although Greer has not had any abnormal reaction after learning the latest news, Xilin has always had a lingering weirdness. Whenever I close my eyes, I think of Gleier's office. Then the brain will replay the previous actions one by one.
Until now, every detail of this action has been replayed in Xilin's mind.
What¡¯s wrong?
where¡¡
Xilin closed his eyes and replayed the scenes in his mind. Greer's chair appeared in his mind for a long time, and then he went down the passage and reached the underground laboratory. Invisibility, passing through those busy laboratories, then to the passages, and then to those guard bugs, Xilin can clearly feel the tentacles on the tips of the guard bugs' noses.
There is definitely something wrong with those guard bugs!
Every person who passes through the passage, whether familiar or unfamiliar, will cause the guard bugs to react, but familiar people will not cause these guard bugs to issue warnings. And the guard bugs Xilin saw were too comfortable. It feels as if it has not been stimulated by smell for a long time.
Isn¡¯t that the core laboratory? Shouldn't Greer go there every day and take a look? Even for Glaer, the familiar smell should stimulate the stress response of those guard bugs, but the current situation of those guard bugs is not like this at all! In that situation, it was as if he had not been stimulated by foreign smells for at least five days.
Xilin was thinking about what was wrong with this. He was thinking so deeply that he didn't notice that the fingers that originally scratched the gray cat's chin were already tugging on the gray cat's beard. The gray cat looked at Xilin who was immersed in thinking and flicked his ears. , forget it, let him hold on for a while, and when he comes to his senses, he must extort a batch of compensation!
When Xilin and the others left the area of ??the Sixth Army and headed back to Ci Jincheng, inside the base, in Greer's office in the third experimental area, Greer sent a message: This place was finally discovered.
After turning off the communicator, Greer looked at his chair with a strange smile on his face. At this moment, the chair has been dismantled, and there are some scratches on the bottom of the chair. Every time it is lowered, there will be an undetectable scratch on the bottom of the chair, and Greer's daily habit is to count these. scratches.
It is hard to imagine that in a place filled with all kinds of advanced instruments and equipment, where even the dead skin shed by natural metabolism on the human body can be detected, Greer would use this primitive and simple physical method to know Did anyone go into the underground laboratory?
In fact, in the entire experimental base, what Greer values ??most is not the underground experimental area or the core laboratory, but the distance from the ground to the underground where the chair passes. During this process, the tiny scratches on the bottom of the chair were what Greer was waiting for every day, and every time he went out, Greer would habitually count these scratches.
"Finally, we've waited, haha." Greer was lying on the table with his whole body shaking with laughter, looking like a mentally ill patient.
¡¡
After Xilin and the others returned to Ci Jincheng¡¯s place, and borrowed Ci Jincheng¡¯s equipment, Xilin contacted Nata. Nata was also one of the targets who was assassinated by "Mist" some time ago, but Nata was lucky and was only injured, and he has almost recovered now. Xilin went to visit Nata after that double-team battle, and there was no fatal danger. Although Nata is not the top among the top leaders of the vanguard, his alertness and self-protection ability can definitely be ranked first, otherwise In that assassination, two senior officials who were stronger than Nata were unfortunately killed, but Nata only suffered a minor injury.
Xilin and Nata occasionally contact each other. Xilin doesn't know many senior leaders of Pioneer. Sumba Leruo, Bart and Nata are relatively familiar people. These three people also help Xilin a lot, so Xilin will be fine. I would also contact them from time to time, but most of the time, no one had much free time.
"Hey, why did you think of contacting me?" On the screen, Nata looked in good spirits.
"Let's see how you recover, and also verify some things by the way." Xilin said.
"Oh?" Nata raised his white eyebrows, "Tell me, if you can answer, I won't hide it."
"About Senior Chamunidin." Xilin looked at Nata, "I want to make sureFor a moment, have you given me all the records of Senior Chamunidin on parasites, as you said before? "
Nata is not surprised by Xilin's question. There is a faint sense of uneasiness in the Star Alliance now. They also know some rumors, and as a senior leader of Vanguard, Ji Feng will also tell them some top-secret information.
After a moment of silence, Nata stared at Xilin again, and then sighed: "I promised him that I would not take it out easily. Even if the leader speaks, I will not take it out casually. . Chamunidin said that in the hands of some people, that thing will become a big killer."
When Nata said these words, he also observed Xilin's facial expression and speculated on Xilin's inner thoughts. However, what surprised Nata was that Xilin was very calm, as calm as if he had already guessed what he was going to say next. .
"What do you know?" Nata asked.
Xilin shook his head, "I know some of the things you know. When the time comes, once a disaster breaks out, whether the regiment is prepared to stay away from crowded areas or abandon the original base, no matter what, I am prepared to stay. So, I need some records from Chamunidin senior.¡±
¡°That¡¯s fine, if you find a solution, we don¡¯t have to look for an escape point anymore,¡± Nata said.
Although Nata said this, in fact, Ji Feng had already chosen his evacuation points, which are some remote planets, and even some planets with C-level habitability. Even if the living environment is not good, it is better than suffering in the central area. . Not only the vanguard, but several other hunter groups have probably already chosen their retreat. The planned purge in the hunter world gradually subsided due to unknown news received by all parties.
It¡¯s just calm on the surface. When Ji Feng held a high-level meeting not long ago, he had already decided to take action to seize a batch of resources before the disaster broke out. Vanguard and Blue Butterfly will attack Yushengtian in the short term. None of this is known to outsiders. What outsiders know is that the hunter group received the news and was ready to run away.
Nata left for a short while, and when he reappeared, he had a record book in his hand.
"This is another record book besides the "Parasite Code". Originally, Chamunidin was going to record all of this in the "Parasite Code", but later he chose to record it separately." Nata said , while opening the record book, showing it to Xilin page by page. In fact, this record book is not thick, so I turned it over page by page and finished it quickly.
"How do you feel?" Nata looked at Xilin with a smile, trying to see some annoyance on Xilin's face. However, when he found that Xilin still had that calm expression on his face that made people couldn't help but slap him a few more times. , Nata¡¯s originally prepared words of ridicule stopped abruptly.
Nataken took out the record book that Chamunidin specially asked. One of them is to hope that Xilin can find a way for the vanguard to better avoid this disaster. If Xilin succeeds, it will definitely be a good thing for the vanguard. It's a great thing, and its influence in the hunter world can be imagined.
The second reason is the record book itself. Nata had read this record book many times, but still found nothing and could not understand it.
Yes, I can¡¯t understand. Nata also knew a little bit about parasites because of Cha Munidin, and he could understand a little bit by looking at Cha Munidin's previous notebooks. However, he absolutely didn't understand anything in the notebook here! Because, it¡¯s all code!
Chamunidin said that this is the life code he recorded. Whoever can read his "Parasite Code" should also be able to understand this one.
So, Nata often wonders, haven¡¯t I understood ¡°The Parasite Code¡± yet? It is estimated that among the entire vanguard, except for Xilin, Nata is the most familiar with the "Parasite Code". Who would have thought that Nata could not understand the other notebook left by Zhamunidin?
"That's all?" Xilin asked.
"That's it. There are also some specimens. You know, although you didn't take them all, you have seen them all. Now I really tell you everything." Nata closed the book in his hand and read this record Originally, he would not give it out. It can be shown to others, but it cannot be leaked out, at least not now. If it was lost or used in a wrong way by someone, he would be very sorry to Chamunidin. Ji Feng asked him but he didn't give it, he just glanced at him. The result of Ji Feng's glance was that his face was full of annoyance and distortion, just like Nata's expression when he saw this record book for the first time.
No matter how important something is, it is in vain if you cannot understand it.
"That's it. You have a good rest. No more nonsense. We will contact you next time." After saying this, Xilin did not wait for Nata to get angry and disconnected the communication.
Nata¡¯s face twitched as he faced the communicator that had lost its signal connection. Does this count as throwing away after use?
He is reallyI really want to twist that guy Xilin over and kick him hard. Moreover, Nata's heart is scratching like a cat's claws now. Looking at Xilin's behavior, he must have understood, right? right? should be. But why didn¡¯t Mao say anything?
The troubled Nata hesitated for a moment, but still did not tell Ji Feng, so as not to be happy in vain.
On the other side, Xilin entered Ci Jincheng¡¯s laboratory area after imprinting the information recorded in the record book that had been secretly kept in Nata¡¯s hand in his mind. There, Ci Jincheng arranged a laboratory for Xilin.
Gray Cat squatted on the table next to it, watching Xilin enter a long string of unknown characters, and then intercepted some of them, put them together, and then converted
This kind of work has been carried out many times, and the gray cat almost fell asleep looking at it, and Xilin's hand movements showed no signs of slowing down. After yawning, the gray cat came to the laboratory and lay down on a counter near the door, closing his eyes to rest. With it here, no one can come in and disturb me at this time.
Xilin's hands moved quickly. Although they were repeating similar tasks, the sequences they spelled out were different each time. There were already more than a hundred sequences on an instrument next to them, all of which were spelled out by Xilin's group. Yes, this number is still increasing
When Xilin saw the characters on the record book, he didn't understand it at first, but after recalling some of Cha Munidin's notes and key points in "The Parasite Code" that he had read before, and looking at these characters, he could There are some hints from the characters, just hints, Xilin will have to confirm them later.
After putting together several sequences, Xilin confirmed his thoughts.
Every sequence he decoded was a gene sequence from a certain parasite. Decoding these is only the first step. After the assembly is completed, Xilin needs to screen and intercept these sequences again. This is a huge calculation and analysis process that cannot be done by a computer alone, because it also needs to be combined with some "Parasite" Password".
According to Xilin¡¯s prediction, when all these are decoded, the final result will be the original form of the ¡°Dream Tapir¡± without any genetic information from the time of modification! .
