Chapter 41 The Role of Complete Survey

"Theresa." Xia Ling hurried to the bridge: "What's the situation now?"

"A very small-scale, but extremely high-energy-level Honkai Impact broke out in the Oceania branch." Theresa frowned, "According to current observations, the peak energy level of this Honkai Impact is even close to 4000 HW. This basically means that a Herrscher must have been born in the Oceania branch."

"Four thousand?" Xia Ling's eyes shone. This number has greatly exceeded the energy level of Wendy in the original work.

"Yes, it's nearly a thousand higher than when Mei was there." Theresa nodded: "Xia Ling, I remember you have been in touch with Wendy, has she done anything unusual recently?"

"A Herrscher has appeared in Oceania. If nothing unexpected happens, it is most likely Wendy who has been implanted with the Desire Gem. But how could she suddenly lose control?"

Xia Ling thought for a moment and replied, "Based on the last few communications, she is in very good spirits, and so is her companion named Hai Mo."

"Hai Mo, is this the Pseudo-Hermitor who specifically invited you to conduct research?"

"Yeah, they're really attached to each other, probably...similar to Mei and Kiana."

"Hmm..." Theresa obviously thought of something and her expression turned grim.

"Isn't it going to be like the second collapse?"

"You mean... because of Hai Mo?" Xia Ling pondered for a moment: "I think it's very likely."

"Wendy's emotions have always been very stable. I can't think of any other reason why she would suddenly have such a big reaction except for this situation."

At this time, Theresa's terminal rang again.

Theresa picked up the terminal and looked at it carefully. After a moment, her expression became a little... puzzled.

"what happened?"

"I suspect..." Theresa said with a strange look on her face: "We guessed right."

"I just received a report from headquarters. Although the level of this Houkai is very high, the affected area is extremely small. The location where the Houkai broke out, that is, the Oceania branch, was basically wiped out."

"Herder of the Wind... No, let's just call her Wendy."

"She has now created a small whirlwind and is looking for something in Oceania."

"To be precise, she is probably seeking revenge. Once she meets her target, she will use her power to cut the opponent into small pieces in an instant, and then throw them into her blood-stained whirlwind."

"So far, dozens of people have died in such revenge. According to statistics, almost all of them are from the Oceania branch."

Hearing this, Xia Ling fell silent for a moment.

"So...what's the headquarters' attitude?"

"Although Wendy didn't hurt any innocent people, the social impact she caused is really scary." Theresa spread her hands. "Grandpa meant to try to communicate and comfort them, but it's not clear yet whether her revenge is only against these people or against the entire destiny."

"If it's the latter..." Xia Ling's voice revealed a hint of worry.

"If it's the latter, we should prioritize protecting ourselves. Yulandel and Rita will be here soon."

Theresa felt helpless.

"I don't believe that Wendy has completely lost her mind. Anyway, as I said before, we will stabilize the people while trying to find Wendy. Xia Ling, you are the one who has the best relationship with Wendy here, and you are much faster than us."

"So, you can move freely. We will synchronize our findings to you in real time and try to find a breakthrough before Yulandel arrives."

"Otherwise... once the people from headquarters and Anti-Entropy arrive, it will most likely end up in chaos."

"I understand." Xia Ling nodded heavily: "I will go to the ruins of the Oceania branch first to see if there are any clues."

"I'll keep you posted if I need any help."

......

With Ji Zi sailing at a very fast speed without caring about the consumption, Hyperion soon arrived at its destination.

After placing Xia Ling near the Oceania branch, Ji Zi turned the boat around and began to deal with the follow-up along Wendy's route.

After confirming that Hyperion had left, Xia Ling also released Hai Mo from the system space.

"Time is running out, lead the way quickly."

"Okay, I'll give you the coordinates directly."

Xia Ling grabbed Hai Mo's arm, and her figure disappeared in an instant, appearing several hundred meters away, and then moved to the next target without stopping.

Although Xia Ling could have reached the destination in one go, the concentration of residual Honkai energy in the Oceania branch was extremely high and there was a high probability that the transmission would be disrupted, so Xia Ling decided to take a safer approach to hurry on.

Not long after, the two arrived at the former Oceania branch. Of course, it had become a ruin at this time.

"Tsk tsk, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect you are already here..."

Hai Mo shook his head and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Then, she took Xia Ling to find the ruins of the original experimental building.

This seems to be the place where Wendy is living. It can be seen that the damage to this building is the most serious, because the two of them can't find where this building is at all.

It seems that the degree of disintegration of this building is much more serious than that of Haimo.

"Sure enough, although I didn't have high expectations before, I can only confirm it after a field investigation. It turns out that it is impossible to find clues by manpower."

Xia Ling stood on the ruins of the laboratory building, trying to sense downwards.

"I can't help it. It's obvious that Wendy destroyed the data on purpose."

"But the good news is that she definitely still has self-awareness. She must have obtained the personnel list of the Oceania branch from here, and then began to take revenge."

"Then don't waste time and just use the cipher board."

Hai Mo directly took out a cipher board with blue patterns.

Xia Ling also took out a cipher board with green patterns and put it together with the cipher board in Hai Mo's hand.

【Beginning Announcement】

【What I saw, knew, and sought was in the darkness. I climbed a tree during the day and looked out at night, holding a fire to guard the tribesmen.】

That’s right, this time, Xia Ling rarely used the cipher boards to form a coordinated language, but instead chose to combine two separate pieces.

【Eyes】 and 【Patrol】.

As the name suggests, this duo is dedicated to maximizing their intelligence gathering capabilities.

In the game, the role of [Patrol] is to completely survey node intelligence. In reality, after being combined with [Eyes], this pair of cipher boards can directly extract intelligence from a certain area.

The blue light emitted from the cipher board quickly expanded and then enveloped the entire Oceania branch.

Countless data and light spots converged on the cipher board. Finally, the light turned into a diary and two USB flash drives and fell into Xia Ling's hands.

"Diary? I don't remember Ryan having this hobby?"

Hai Mo pinched her falling hair, feeling a little confused.

"No normal person would write a diary, especially one in his position. This thing is probably the survey result of the cipher board, but it is just integrated in this way for us to read."

Xia Ling opened the diary.

"Come on, let's see what exactly caused Haimo's death?"

Reward 2.0

Ahem, I originally wanted to post a bounty notice at the end of the chapter, but I remembered that many people voted too early last time, so I only posted a short notice and set a scheduled release time of 12 noon.

As the title says, I have accumulated some manuscripts recently. Actually, there are not many, but my group friends insisted that I offer a reward, so I did it. Hey hey.

Then the following is the reward content:

One more chapter will be added for every 1,000 votes.

One more chapter will be added for every 100 monthly votes.

One more chapter will be added for every 50 blades or 5000 rewards. These two can be counted together.

The bounty will still last for one week, with a cap of ten chapters.

As for the boxes...

Gold boxes will add 16 chapters, and silver boxes will add 5 chapters. These are not included in the bounty cap and will be calculated separately.

However, since I don't have that many manuscripts in stock, I will have to return the additional chapters in the box slowly. I hope you guys will go easy on me.

I will post the picture when the time comes, but due to the delay, you may have to refresh tomorrow to see the picture.

Oh, and by the way, let me mention something about the plot. Actually, there is a reason for the sudden increase in Wendy's strength. I will talk about this later. I also took the opportunity to explain why Wendy was so weak in the original work. There may be some private setting.

that is it.

The following is a screenshot of the data at 7:4 on July 0th

Chapter 1: Sea Foam Research Log ()

I opened the first page of the diary and saw the date on it was... no date?

"Well... it's normal that there's no date. After all, this thing isn't a real diary."

Skipping the blank date column, the two continued reading.

【Sea Foam Research Log 1】

[So far, I have not made any breakthroughs in my research. This is not normal, or rather, this result is not normal.]

[There are so many suspicious points about Hai Mo that I can't even count them all. It's really outrageous. How could such a pseudo-hermssider be born in the world? She has no power, no strength, and the only difference between her and the dead soldiers is that she is alive and has human consciousness and can think like a human.]

[If her physical fitness and recovery ability had not really reached the level of a Herrscher, I would have suspected that someone was pretending to be a Herrscher to trick me.]

[In short, we need to continue to observe. ]

【Sea Foam Research Log 2】

[After thinking about it carefully, I have ruled out the possibility that she is someone pretending to be a Herrscher.]

[The reason is simple. I really can't think of what there is to be plotted here that would be worth someone sneaking in as a test subject and not revealing any flaws for several months.]

[The only thing that meets this value is the Desire Gem, but whether it is Destiny or Anti-Entropy, there is really nothing they can do with it, otherwise the headquarters would not let Wendy be the humanoid container to contain this Herrscher Core. ]

[And this Hai Mo... Excuse me, it seems that she is more interested in the Desire Gem Container than the Desire Gem itself. It's impossible that she came here just to pick up Wendy, haha.]

[However, this did give me some inspiration. I assumed from the beginning that Haimo would cooperate with my experiment, and in fact it seems to be true. She doesn't care about herself to the extreme, and it even makes people doubt whether it is her body. ]

[It is this attitude that has kept me from subconsciously thinking about a possibility: Is Haimo...really cooperating with me?]

"Although I don't know when this diary entry was written, it turns out that you have already revealed your flaws." Xia Ling looked at Hai Mo speechlessly: "I thought you disguised yourself well?"

"Uh..." Hai Mo said innocently, "I cooperate with him in his suspicion. If I don't cooperate, he will be even more suspicious... This seems like a dead end."

"Forget it, let's continue reading." Xia Ling turned to the next page: "Let me see what direction he is guessing."

【Sea Foam Research Log 3】

【Today's experiment has made a breakthrough. 】

[Oh, to be precise, this progress has nothing to do with the experiment, but comes from the summary of the experimental results. ]

【The conclusion is that the drug resistance of this sea foam is very abnormal. 】

[Her drug resistance is actually selective.]

[It's like someone is weighing the pros and cons. She will develop resistance to anything that will cause significant damage to her body, and she will ignore anything that is insignificant or beneficial.]

[This also means that most drugs can only kill her at first sight.]

[Because there has never been such a detailed drug experiment on a Herrscher sample before, I have always thought that this is one of the Herrscher's properties, but today an assistant reminded me, what if this is not the Herrscher's property? ]

[I immediately tried it in an environment without Honkai energy, and found that even when the Honkai energy in her body was almost emptied, this evolution would still occur. This evolution may not come from Honkai energy or power, but from her body.]

[It's just that... she doesn't seem to want me to get this thing that can bring her evolution. I tried to extract this... let's call it evolution factor, but I have never succeeded. ]

【Sea Foam Research Log 4】

[Interesting, really interesting.]

【I seem to have found a bug. 】

[In previous experiments, because Haimo claimed that she could block pain on her own, and the actual situation was indeed so, I never anesthetized her. ]

[However, when I was conducting anesthesia experiments today, I found that she did not seem to have evolved resistance to anesthetics and fainted directly.]

[So I immediately conducted an experiment and took a blood sample from her to try to find out what the evolutionary factor was.]
