"The criminal handover is complete," a tide of humanoid combat chs defended Major Li of the Fire Owl special forces and the mission target as they began to withdraw. The top-tier "Dragon King" assault-type heavy armor warrior who had boarded the mobile base vehicle earlier was mixed among them, serving as a command node for the battle team.
This courtyard was not their destination; the true location for receiving the mission target lay elsewhere.
The combat chs, controlled by a high-level derivative AI from "Cybertrom," perhaps didn't match the individual combat capabilities of the top human elite warriors, but their team combat ability was not to be underestimated. In fact, the more there were, the greater their advantage beca, and combined with human soldiers, they could maximally leverage a synergistic effect far greater than the sum of the parts.
The motorcyclist had already removed her helt, revealing that she was actually a strikingly beautiful mixed heritage girl with chestnut hair and eyes shimring with beautiful peacock green.
She signaled to the "Dark Night" special operations officers and soldiers who had stayed behind, along with Chen Fei and Mr. Ye, an S-class psychic ability user.
"I'll take you to the camp, then wait there for new orders."
"Thank you!"
Officer Yuan Zheng saluted and turned to his C Squad, shouting loudly, "Everyone, get on the transport!"
The old driver Chen Fei started the vehicle.
The barracks assigned to C Squad and Chen Fei were located on the edge of the small town. Just a few steps away, one could see the river near the barrier.
Mr. Ye, an S-class psychic ability user, got off the vehicle halfway; after all, his accommodations were there, and it would not make sense for him to cram into the barracks with the rank and file soldiers, even if the conditions were quite decent.
His destination was a posh-looking hotel, probably assigned and managed by soone specialized.
Rarity creates value. Although the indigenous population base is large, the number of S-class psychic ability users is still not high. It is noteworthy that many sovereigns don't even have an S-class psychic ability user, so having so special treatnt is justified.
A two-story building was allotted to C Squad and Chen Fei, temporarily assigned to them, while the mobile base vehicle was parked in the parking lot.
The local microclimate inside the barrier was quite comfortable and pleasant, with temperatures around 15 degrees Celsius above zero and humidity maintained at 55%. No wonder, during the dry and cold winter, the plains adjacent to this Gobi desert were covered with thick snow, yet this place still remained lush and green.
Minus ten degrees Celsius would be enough to turn a Pure Light Sparrow into a frozen bird instantly in an area it's forbidden to enter.
Although the temperature within the barrier wasn't as warm as spring, it was sufficient for Little Bird to leave the mobile base vehicle's cabin and fly freely outdoors.
"...Chirp chirp... chirp chirp..."
"...Chatter chatter..."
"Chirp?"
"Chatter chatter!" ×n (n>30).
The sparrows felt their territory had been invaded and tried to drive away this uninvited guest.
The little guy got into a dispute with a group of local sparrows, causing a cacophony in the trees, on the ground, and in the sky.
It's not that a mighty dragon doesn't cross rivers, a dominant dragon suppresses the local snakes; a one-against-many battle had begun.
A group of sparrows fighting was hardly anything to write ho about; it wasn't even close to a real skirmish. Aside from the incessant noisy clatter that could give one a headache, the damage they could inflict on each other was almost negligible.
Although a Pure Light Sparrow was one of the weakest magical beasts, it wasn't sothing ordinary birds could bully, especially when Xiao Jiu could cast spells.
With a magic shield over itself, it darted and crashed about; when tired, it would cast a "Light Healing Technique" on itself to recover, and the battle continued. The group of sparrows was truly unlucky, scattering repeatedly, unable to organize a counterattack.
The sustainable combat power of a light-elent magical beast was second only to that of a wood-attribute magical beast. It truly didn't fear a group battle even when outnumbered, never losing any ground.
Bang!~
A dull sound echoed.
Chen Fei, who was busy maintaining the mobile base vehicle in the parking lot and paying no attention to the sparrows' skirmish, looked up to see a plu of white smoke rising in the distance.
What was that commotion? Could it be that Hablav City, the location of the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee's headquarters, was not so peaceful?
"It's the testing field; they often conduct practical experints on equipnt or skills there, and sotis it can get quite loud,"
A voice ca from the side.
Chen Fei turned around to find the female motorcyclist who had led them earlier pushing her motorcycle towards him. She had left the parking lot for a while, but now she had returned.
"Hello, I'm Chen Fei. May I ask your na?" Chen Fei nodded in greeting.
"Rona. I've heard your ability is industrial-grade tal elental psychic power. Can you... replicate this motorcycle?" The female motorcyclist pushed her bike next to the mobile base vehicle, hefted the rear of the bike with effort, stepped back, and hoisted it up impressively.
At a glance, the roofed motorcycle seed to weigh at least close to five hundred pounds. If one didn't have a good amount of strength, this move wouldn't be easy to execute—most could only let down the side stand.
Chen Fei asked curiously, "How did you know about my ability?"
He had never spoken about his abilities carelessly. Boss Hana had once warned that the skills of a supernatural power user are like trump cards; the less exposed they are, the more lives they can save when it really counts. If one's life was gone, even the most powerful special ability would be of no use.
The mixed-race female rider with green eyes and chestnut hair picked up the helt hanging from the rear-view mirror and toyed with it while speaking, "Authority! I have higher authority than you, so of course I can access your personal information. Before sovereignty, all secrets are no secrets."
"Replicating this motorcycle shouldn't be a problem, but you should be ntally prepared."
A straight talker, Chen Fei readily admitted his own ability.
"Are you talking about 'Sacrifice'?"
It seed that the female rider Rona truly knew the na of Chen Fei's industrial-grade skill.
"Yes, it will first disassemble the tallic parts of this motorcycle, but it's powerless against non-tallic parts. So, replication is relative. 'Sacrifice' only requires a complete set of tallic material templates, just like this one."
Chen Fei slapped the side of the Mobile Base Vehicle, which he had indeed put a lot of effort into piecing together.
He couldn't just conjure things out of thin air. The so-called "Sacrifice" was actually a fusion of three skills: "tal Devouring," "Physical Evolution Database," and "tal Shaping|Replication|Material Simulation," including crystal phase forming to simulate heat treatnt effects. In essence, the evolution process practically made no significant difference in the actual outco.
"This motorcycle cost three million Star Yuan!"
Rona hesitated, as there were still many non-tallic parts on the motorcycle.
"'Sacrifice' carries risks, replication requires caution."
Chen Fei tactfully gave a warning. Although his tal Elental Psychic Power had so far been very reliable, anything could happen, and it was always good to be cautious about that slim chance.
Three million Star Yuan. He couldn't afford to compensate for that, as the sum was enough to buy a house.
Money is the courage of a man; the truly poor can't afford to gamble.
"Do it, just replicate," said the female rider Rona, waving the helt in her hand. She hadn't co to Chen Fei to satisfy her curiosity about his industrial-grade tal Elental Psychic Ability.
Rather, it was because of a practical issue.
A motorcycle worth three million Star Yuan surely looked cool and impressive, but there was no after-sales service here at all.
If a problem or damage occurred, well, at least six months would be needed before replacent parts could be obtained. After all, not just anyone could enter this place; people and resources coming in and out had to go through strict scrutiny.
Even for "Dark Night" Squad C, carrying an important escort task, and Chen Fei, who had been conscripted halfway through, they were still placed in barracks on the periphery after handing over their task and couldn't get close to important or central areas.
"Then let's give it a try!"
The thought of having a new batch of samples in the "Physical Evolution Database" made Chen Fei utterly unceremonious as he reached for the motorcycle.
The next second, various non-tallic parts clattered to the ground, while all tallic parts disappeared without a trace.
The tal content here was probably not even enough to fill a gap in the "tal Devouring" skill's teeth!
The Dog System didn't even give 1 Energy Point, the stingy miser with no butt-eye, risking system crashes and data loss.
"It's gone?"
Though she had braced herself, Rona was still greatly startled.
"Gone. Prepare about ten to twenty tons of tal, preferably alloy, even scrap tal would do. I can help restore it for you, but limited to one complete motorcycle, since I have no way with those non-tallic parts," Chen Fei said, putting his hands on his hips, pretending to be very tired.
In the distance, there was another earth-shattering clang, and nurous sparks shot towards the sky, providing a very tily sound effect.
He felt that he shouldn't make the "Sacrifice" skill appear so effortless, because if soone were to order him to replicate a Magic Cube Warship one day, it would really cost him his life.
Such a massive thing made his head spin with dizziness, and it was simply unbearable.
"Just ten to twenty tons?"
Rona wasn't worried at all about the other party standing her up.
This was Hanhai Central Base where people can't easily co and go. If he couldn't revert her motorcycle back, his big vehicle could also be taken to settle the debt, equally impressive.
"At least, the more the better!"
When Chen Fei heard there might be extras to gain, he considered it labor compensation.
Energy Points were hard to co by, after all. To not take advantage of available benefits would be a sin. An, an, Madam, please proceed!
