655: Chapter 299 Field Investigation · Hero ver 655: Chapter 299 Field Investigation · Hero ver Yuki’s mood was really at its worst now.
After a group of guys, who were troublemakers as kids and still pretty troubleso now, brought him in front of a pile of wreckage, his impatience began to show gradually.
Not only Liu Ri, but even the rather unfamiliar Han Zhun and so novice workers could see it.
With so concern, Han Zhun looked at Yuki, “Are you okay?”
“Not really,” Yuki deliberately put it this way, “What the hell is this?
You call this good stuff?”
“Hey, listen to you talk,” the forr Child King Yuan shook his head, “This was a famous Green Forest, right?
Should be very famous…
Anyway, its shell is high-level.
This guy sneaked in so silently, most of us didn’t even notice him!
Isn’t that impressive?
Definitely not so nobody.”
The pile of wreckage in front of the three was indeed left by Lev’s partner, “Vigorous Kui.”
The cause of Vigorous Kui’s death was “fire.” He was first hit by Xiang Shan’s Inner Strength attack that caused mory loss, enduring his proudest skill.
(Honestly, if Xiang Shan’s mory had been a bit more intact, he wouldn’t have died from such a “basic skill” of his own.) After this, Xiang Shan shot through his armor from the firing port, smashed his interior, caused the battery to ignite, and ultimately burnt everything combustible.
The forr Child King Yuan said, “What about it, this thing can definitely…”
“Spit,” Liu Ri had started speaking, “Dynamic Optical Camouflage is inherently fragile, and after being burnt, it’s ruined.
Even if it weren’t this advanced optical camouflage but a more simple alloy…
unless it’s a specialized high-temperature resistant alloy, most alloys will degrade in performance after being in a high-temperature oxygen-rich environnt.
As for this thing…
you can’t really dismantle anything from it.”
Han Zhun also shook his head, “I think, if there was sothing to dismantle, it would definitely have already been taken apart by people from your town and sold.”
A puzzled look ca over the forr Child King Yuan’s face, “Ah?
Really?
But many people in town said this thing is a treasure.”
Seizing the opportunity, Liu Ri said, “Speaking of treasures, that stick planted outside your town is indeed a genuine treasure.
Too bad you won’t sell it.”
The forr Child King Yuan also looked sowhat confused, “This…”
Liu Ri asked, “What?
Is there a problem?”
“Everyone thinks it’s not feasible…” replied the forr Child King Yuan.
Liu Ri continued, “Could also be that the price isn’t high enough?
Your doctors don’t even want to hear our offer.”
The forr Child King Yuan just shook his head, “Then you guys definitely can’t offer enough.
The doctors wouldn’t make a mistake.
This is for your own good too, city folks.”
In the midst of the conversation, his tone had beco a little less friendly.
Yuki and Liu Ri exchanged glances, What the hell are you up to?
Gathering information, gathering information, Liu Ri replied.
According to the stories his grandfather had told him, this was also sothing the heroic heroes of ancient tis often did.
When they arrived in a place, they would understand all sorts of things about the surroundings, comprehend the customs, and people’s inclinations, either to leverage them or to build an organization.
However, after the Fourth Martial God, such activities had gradually decreased.
The actions of King Aqini made both the heroes and the Protectors realize that the governnt would resolve these kinds of troubles with thods like “massacre.”
Nowadays, when heroes conducted such assessnts, the aim was less about “organizational developnt” and more about “gathering information.”
Yes, that’s right, gathering information.
In this era of massive AI surveillance networks, not all information can circulate online.
Certainly, heroes were adept at hiding information in the corners of the internet, even inventing countless sches specifically to deceive AI, but ordinary people likely didn’t have such ans.
Many local rumors widely circulated in the area couldn’t spread online.
Moreover, the form of “ntorship” in small-scale teaching is also a way for Jianghu to remain vibrant.
Many old Heroes found their successors through such activities.
Although Liu Ri and the others were far from the level of “ntoring”, this skill of “gathering information” still needed to be mastered early on.
It was only then that Yuki realized, as if waking from a dream.
Perhaps because he had grown accustod to this town, he had skipped so thinking steps earlier.
Instinctively, he felt that the place was too insane but had stepped into a blind spot in his thinking without knowing it.
——Right…
this place is indeed crazy.
But it is precisely because it’s extraordinarily crazy that one needs to think…
Yuki’s mind revisited what his ntor had told him: “Think more, Yuki, I can only tell you to think more before that…”
Although the ntor had never explained what the so-called “that” referred to, or what it was about.
But it seed Yuki understood.
He nodded to Liu Ri.
Liu Ri took another look at Yuki and transmitted the ssage: “I think this kid might not completely believe what the doctor just said.
But since most people around believe it, he has to convince himself to believe.”
“What does that an?”
“How should I know?”
Yuki quickly replied: “Perhaps there’s a fact that makes him disbelieve?”
Liu Ri did not reply.
After all, both of their Inner Strength were still very low.
They couldn’t, like Xiang Shan, output large chunks of text in the middle of hand-to-hand combat.
But Yuki and Liu Ri almost instantly had an answer.
The guy with the gun had said earlier, “The nearby towns have already been robbed by the Green Forest.”
The townspeople were perhaps not just in a state of fervor.
They were also very uneasy.
Then, the forr Child King Yuan led Yuki and the three around the town.
Recycling Station Town neighbored the crash site of Yawgmoth’s flagship.
The most valuable parts of that Emperor Shitian-level warship “Lamark” had already been dismantled by governnt officials.
Only the part containing the bridge, after being severely twisted, was buried deep underground, like a pyramid tomb inverted into the ground.
Such a level of wreckage would inevitably contain a massive amount of intact parts.
These things were too fragnted for the governnt to bother to collect, and even heroes might not be willing to do such inefficient work.
Many residents had a bit of intact planks and parts in their hos.
These odds and ends were considered a fortification for the Prosthetic Body.
Soon, Liu Ri indicated that the three brothers on his side had already gathered the needed parts.
This statent, to soone educated in chanical engineering, seed sowhat dubious, but the forr Child King Yuan was clearly not such a person.
Liu Ri aningfully patted the shoulders of this novice worker, saying, “You’ve helped us, and we thank you for that.”
The forr Child King Yuan wanted to say sothing, but Liu Ri quickly added, “But, we still have one thing we’d like your help with.”
“Help us figure out a way to get that stick, and we can promise you any favor within our abilities.”
