Chapter 564 Weaknesses
Catherine was depressed for a long time, but she also knew that complaining was useless. Now that she survived, she had to cheer up again, especially since Jiang Chanji and No. 15 were here to help her. How could she only care about her depression?

"Where is No. 15? Have you followed Mr. C?" she asked.

"It should be." Jiang Chanji nodded.

"Mr. C is cunning and vicious, she won't be in danger, right?" Catherine worried.

"It shouldn't happen. She is a forbearer. She has gone through a lot of wind and waves. As long as she doesn't cancel her invisibility rashly, I don't think there is any possibility of capsizing in the gutter." Jiang Chanji comforted, "We asked her to follow and Collecting intelligence is not for her to fight."

"It makes sense." Catherine felt relieved, and she would feel even more guilty if the partner who came to help had an accident because of herself.

"Besides, there is a problem with our manpower arrangement today. Don't you think that No. 15's ability is just enough to restrain that... silver man? If No. 15 stays for you and I go to follow up, the situation tonight may be different." reversed."

Catherine thought so too, No. 15's ability restrained almost all melee and long-range physical attackers. If the silver man met No. 15 just now, even though No. 15 was not absolutely sure of winning, at least he would not be defeated.

But it is useless to regret now, no one can predict the future.

"Where did this guy come from? I've never heard of such a transcendent before..." Catherine wondered, "Her features are so obvious, and she is not the kind of transcendent with particularly hidden abilities. It stands to reason It should have been famous long ago.”

Catherine has traveled far and wide and has seen a lot. She has never heard of it, let alone Jiang Chanji.

"I just know she came out of there." He pointed to the container with the door open.

"That's right." Catherine smiled wryly, "Go and have a look."

Jiang Chanji pulled her up from the ground, and the two walked towards the container together.

Catherine used the flash of her mobile phone to light it up, and before she got to the container, she noticed something strange on the ground.

The ground near the door of the container was shining with silver, and the soil seemed to be soaked in some kind of silver-white liquid, and such silver tracks extended into the container.

Catherine held him back, "This thing can't be mercury, can it? If it's mercury, it's poisonous!"

"Shouldn't it be? Just now her sword, spear, and javelin are all solid. Mercury is usually a liquid. It won't solidify naturally at this temperature. It is impossible for her to have the ability to manipulate mercury and manipulate temperature at the same time." …Unless there is someone nearby to help her." Jiang Chanji looked around, but You Qisi did not respond, and he did not see any signs of other people ambush.

In short, it is better to be cautious. In case of mercury, they took a few steps back and took a deep breath, then held their breath, walked to the door of the container and looked inside.

The container was mostly empty, save for a large plastic storage box, the normal kind you would use for out-of-season clothes.

The silver-white track extends all the way into the storage box.

They walked in and glanced into the storage box, only to see that silver-white liquid still remained in the box.

The two couldn't figure out the situation, so they left the container for the time being.

"Go and see that javelin."

The two went up to the roof of the warehouse, and saw that the silver-white javelin was still stuck obliquely on the roof.

Catherine took out a tissue to pad her hands and pulled out the javelin.

"This javelin...is very powerful!"

Catherine knows the goods. It is not so much a javelin as it is a... super long arrow.

Unlike ordinary javelins, this javelin has four long and thin fins in the middle and rear.

The four tail fins are distributed symmetrically in a cross shape, and are also silver-white solid metal.

When the javelin is thrown, the four tail fins slash through the air, causing the javelin to spontaneously start to rotate along the longitudinal axis, maintaining stability during flight, and enhancing the range, accuracy and penetration of the javelin.

The two held their breath and were about to observe further when Catherine suddenly dropped the javelin and pulled Jiang Chanji back quickly.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Chanji thought she had spotted the enemy.

"This javelin... seems to be melting?"

Catherine looked down at her palm in shock, only to see that the top layer of the stack of tissues in her palm had been soaked with some silver-white liquid.

When she was holding the javelin in her hand just now, she suddenly had a vague feeling that the javelin was softening, and she was so frightened that she quickly threw it away. Looking at it now, it was not her illusion.

"You didn't use your ability unintentionally, did you?" Jiang Chanji asked.

"Of course not. If I use the ability, the paper towel will burn first." Catherine shook her head.

Jiang Chanji consciously made a slip of the tongue. It is impossible for Catherine to be unable to control her own abilities, but this fact is a bit evil.

"Let's look around to see if there are any bottles, cans, and the like, put some of this liquid back and ask Zixuan, if we can't find it, just put the lid on that storage box and take it home," he suggested. .

The two searched around, but they couldn't find a container that could be sealed. Finally, Jiang Chanji put the lid on the storage box and lifted it up.

"Let's go back first."

"What about the 15th?" Catherine asked worriedly.

"Send her a message and tell her that we're fine and we're going back first. She's turned off when she's on a mission, so don't worry about exposing her." He couldn't spare his hand and said.

Now no one knows where the 15th has gone after, it is meaningless to stay here and continue to wait, so Catherine had no choice but to send a message as she said, and then returned the same way with Jiang Chanji.

Back near the rental apartment building, Jiang Chanji first waved to the Angel of Light on the top of the building from a distance, indicating that they were all right, then did not go back to the apartment building, but ran to the public bathhouse.

It was already midnight, the bathhouse had already closed and closed, and the surroundings were silent.

Jiang Chanji found the window of Zixuan's room, reached through the anti-theft net, and tapped lightly on the window glass.

The child was sound asleep. It wasn't until he knocked on the glass for the second time that the lights in the room came on, but there was no movement. Zixuan might not be sure if she had heard it wrong in a dream, or thought it was a thief, and was hesitating whether to call Wake up parents.

"Zixuan, it's us, we need your help." He called softly to the window.

Through the curtains, he saw a vague figure lift the quilt from the bed and sit up, then got out of bed, walked to the window, and opened the curtains.

Zixuan was wearing pajamas, and after confirming that it was him and Catherine outside, she opened the window and said sleepily, "Do you know what time it is? Why are you staying awake in the middle of the night? I almost called the police..."

"sorry Sorry!"

Being woken up in the middle of the night would upset anyone, especially children, Jiang Chanji said with a smile: "If it wasn't for something really urgent, we wouldn't come in the middle of the night... I know you must have turned off your phone or turned it on silent when you slept , so I can only wake you up like this."

Zixuan yawned for a long time, glanced in the direction of her parents' room, and said, "I'll open the door for you."

"No!" Jiang Chanji hurriedly stopped, "Let's say a few words through the window and leave. Don't wake up your parents again."

"Okay... what's the matter?" Zixuan looked at the storage box Jiang Chanji put at his feet.

"It's like this... Can you help us identify what is in this box? It looks like liquid, and it looks like metal..." Jiang Chanji carried the box to the window and reminded: "Do you want to go first?" Hold your breath? Maybe it's poisonous?"

Seeing his serious face, Zixuan couldn't help arousing her curiosity, and nodded to him holding her breath.

He opened the lid of the box and let her see the silver-white liquid inside.

"and this."

Catherine brought back the javelin, too, and she wrapped it in layers of rags and plastic, and as she ran, the poisonous fumes from the javelin would be left behind.

Zixuan took a look, then let out a breath, resumed her normal breathing, and said, "It's not dangerous, it's gallium."

"Home? Plus?"

Jiang Chanji didn't understand which word it was.

"Gallium, a relatively rare metal, is non-toxic to humans, and it will be fine if you touch it with your hands casually, as long as you don't drink it in." Zixuan said with certainty.

"But……"

Jiang Chanji didn't explain the specific situation, but only said that some people have played with this metal, and it can freely switch between solid and liquid, how powerful it is.

Zixuan couldn't help laughing and said, "So you're all exhausted, right? But what you're talking about is the property of this metal. Its melting point seems to be around 30 degrees Celsius, so you put it in the palm of your hand, or put it in the on the skin, it will be melted into a liquid by body temperature."

"But...how did it become solid?" Jiang Chanji and Catherine didn't understand this question the most.

"This is a very magical characteristic of gallium metal." Zixuan explained, "When more liquid gallium gathers together, it will form a supersaturated state, and crystals of gallium will be precipitated from it, that's what it is."

She raised her chin for the javelin.

Jiang Chanji and Catherine looked at each other, they remembered how the silver sword grew out of the silver man's hand, which seemed to confirm Zixuan's explanation.

"How to deal with this thing?" Jiang Chanji asked.

"It's afraid of heat, it softens and melts when it encounters a higher temperature heat source."

Catherine suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the silver man never confronted her head-on with weapons in battle. It turned out to be the reason... But being afraid of heat doesn't seem to be a particularly fatal weakness. As long as the opponent avoids contact with her cross sword like tonight, she There is still nothing you can do about it, and if the cross sword really melts the silver man's weapon, it may not be a good thing. It would be uncomfortable to be thrown on the body and face by the hot liquid gallium...

"What else?" Jiang Chanji asked.

"Others...Of course it is also afraid of the cold. If the temperature of liquid gallium is lowered rapidly, it will quickly solidify and lose its fluidity." Zixuan said.

Jiang Chanji and Catherine thought of Aurora. Since the silver man is covered with liquid gallium, if Aurora cools down the surrounding temperature, he can restrict the silver man's actions... But there is a problem that the silver man can run far away when he senses the temperature drop. She wouldn't just stand there stupidly, and Aurora was not good at melee combat, so letting her get too close to the opponent would put her in danger, maybe a javelin would be thrown at her.

The silver man probably took advantage of the characteristics of gallium to unlock the lock from the container. Taking advantage of the different volumes of its liquid and solid states, he injected liquid gallium into the lock cylinder, and when it crystallized, he pushed the lock cylinder aside, or simply destroyed the lock cylinder.

"Are the other weaknesses gone?" he asked unwillingly.

"It's a kind of metal, it has only characteristics, where's the weakness?" Zixuan said helplessly, "It's people who have weaknesses. Instead of looking for the weaknesses of this metal, it's better to find the weaknesses of people."

This was a big truth, which left Jiang Chanji and Catherine speechless.

"Okay, it's too late, go back to sleep, we won't bother you anymore," Jiang Chanji said.

Catherine thanked Zixuan and walked towards the rental apartment.

Jiang Chanji walked a few steps, and suddenly remembered a very important question, before Zixuan closed the window, he ran back and asked, "Zixuan, you said this kind of metal is rare, so...is it very valuable? This small half box and that javelin add up, can it be worth 80 million [-]?"

Zixuan was speechless, "What are you dreaming about? Gallium is a rare metal, and its reserves on the earth are also very rare, but rare does not mean precious. Apart from being fun, it has very few other uses. I don't even know it. What is the meaning of its existence, its functions can basically be replaced by other metals or alloys, so... unfortunately, it is worthless, otherwise I will let you meet and share half of it."

"..."

Jiang Chanji poured cold water on his head, extinguishing his enthusiasm. No wonder the banker used gallium as if he didn't spend any money and threw it away whenever he wanted. The little devil is so big, he actually wants to pluck the wild goose?

Zixuan closed the window and went back to bed. Jiang Chanji and Catherine went back to the roof of the rental apartment. Although gallium was not worth much, he could not litter the garbage and cause trouble for the sanitation workers, so he also brought the storage box and the javelin to the roof.

"What Zixuan said makes sense, let's look for people's weaknesses." Catherine said.

"But we don't even know who that person is." He put down the storage box.

"You can pay Ninja Academy to check, but..."

Jiang Chanji understands Catherine's concerns. She is afraid that the information will be leaked again, and now she doesn't even know the source of the leak.

"Well, tomorrow you can ask Ouyang Caiyue to see if she has heard of a similar transcendent, and I will also ask the teachers." Jiang Chanji said.

Catherine nodded.

[Have you encountered a difficult enemy? ] Michelle wrote.

"Fortunately, it's not too difficult. We just want to find out the origin of that person." Jiang Chanji hurriedly explained, "When we need your help, we will definitely not be polite."

Although if Michelle makes a move, no matter if it is the silver man, the golden man or the eighteen bronze men of Shaolin Temple, they are all free, but the matter has not reached that point. Tonight is an unexpected encounter. As long as No. 15 helps, we can deal with the silver man However, protecting the dean is Michelle's most important task.
