From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star

In the timeline of the previous life, there was a part of the story about the Black Feather Spirit that Lu Heng didn't know.

And no one will know about it in this life, because it didn't happen.

Yuan Yaoyao in her previous life was recruited for the first time.

Her father, Yuan Hecheng, ran around trying to buy a skill core for his daughter, but in the end he did not buy a high-level core, but only a D-level core, which had little skill effect.

However, Yuan Yaoyao did not die when she entered the abyss battlefield for the first time.

But she died during the second call.

The second time she was recruited, she entered the same world.

When Xavier Matrix was captured by the military, she went into battle as the Black Feather Spirit and cut out all the drones like she did in this life.

But she was no match for Alex Austin, and in the end she was destroyed by Alex Austin in order to cover Xavier Matrix's escape.

After Xavier Matrix escaped, he recaptured the fragments of the Black Feather Spirit from the military, and then rebuilt the second generation Black Feather Spirit.

Therefore, the Black Feather Spirit that Lu Heng saw in his previous life was the second generation Black Feather Spirit. Its appearance was basically the same as the first generation, but it was no longer the same one.

In this life, because Lu Heng appeared and blocked Alex Austin, Yuan Yaoyao survived.

Therefore, what happened in the previous life did not happen.

Lu Heng will never know what happened in his last life, and questions about the Black Feather Spirit will remain in his memory.

…

At this moment, Yuan Yaoyao is introducing how powerful the optical brain chip she implanted is.

She also put away her visor to reveal her face, which was indeed its original appearance, but it was unclear whether it was bionic skin or whether her face had not been modified.

Lu Heng was thinking about other issues, pointed at her and said, "Take off the outer armor."

Yuan Yaoyao puffed up her cheeks and muttered: "No."

"What's wrong?" Lu Heng frowned. If her whole body had been transformed, she didn't know how to tell Yuan Hecheng about it when she returned.

Yuan Yaoyao pouted and muttered: "No clothes... only a vest and..."

"Forget it." Lu Heng simply asked directly: "Besides implanting the chip, what else has been modified?"

Xavier Matrix basically analyzed the reasons why humans have a psychological burden on mechanical transformation, and explained:

"Perhaps you have some misunderstanding about mechanical transformation. Mechanical transformation is not for the sake of transformation, but to improve individual operating efficiency.

“Only when the mechanical body is more efficient than the main body, the main body will be replaced by the mechanical body.

"The Black Feather Spirit's body has the ability to change the ductility of metal materials.

“The intensity of this ability is related to the total amount of source energy, which is related to the total amount of cells in the body.

“So, by retaining more cell tissue, you can gain stronger [Fluid Metal] ability, and at the same time, it can also improve the efficiency of [Mechanical Heart] and [Metal Ion Reduction] abilities.

“Therefore, there is no need to replace the limbs at this stage. We will wait until a mechanical body that can replace the limbs and improve efficiency is developed in the future.

"Currently, the transformation plan I have designed is to gradually replace the bones with metal to improve the body's ability to resist blows..."

Lu Heng raised his hand, not wanting to hear his transformation plan.

At present, Yuan Yaoyao has not been forced to reform, so the problem is not big.

Since there are only four days left before the return, the remaining challenge tasks need to be completed as soon as possible.

After two contacts, plus the memory of the previous life.

One thing is certain, Xavier Matrix's technical power has indeed reached a level that Sykes Civilization officials can't do anything about him.

Only one day had passed since he was hunted down by the military, and he settled down again in a courtyard planted with many plants.

It is estimated that even the research project has not been delayed much.

Relatively speaking, working with Xavier Matrix is ​​more efficient than working with other factions.

Moreover, because of Yuan Yaoyao's relationship, there is a natural connection with Xavier Matrix, which is more stable.

…

Lu Heng directly started the most important topic and asked: "Yuan Yaoyao, what is your second challenge?"

Yuan Yaoyao looked at the mission panel and replied: "Find the source of the abyss pollution and remove it."

Lu Heng turned to Xavier Matrix and said, "We may need your help, okay?"

"Of course." Xavier Matrix agreed simply.

"Does Professor Xavier have any clues about the source of the abyss pollution?" Lu Heng asked directly.

Since Xavier Matrix can move freely when wanted by the military, his authority in the central system must be very high, and he can naturally obtain a lot of information that others cannot.

"There are multiple signs that the Adventists' laboratories are studying demons on a large scale, and even mechanically transforming demons. If this is related to the abyss pollution source, then there is more than a 70% probability that the pollution source is within the jurisdiction of the Adventists." Xavier The matrix combines the acquired information to make a judgment.

"Are there any targets that need to be investigated? We are responsible for investigating." Lu Heng then asked.

"Yes. After investigating these secret bases of the Adventists, we may be able to know the answer."

Xavier Matrix gave the coordinates of several Adventist secret bases and stated that he could provide system network support, block signals, and even disrupt Adventist communications.

Lu Heng looked at the electronic map, studied the locations of the secret bases of the Advent Sect, and thought about how to conduct the investigation.

After discussing the action plan, Xavier Matrix took the initiative to say: "I can provide you with some equipment and mechanical modules. Is there anything you need?"

Lu Heng waved and called the mechanical tiger Anka over: "Do you have an anti-gravity module?"

Xavier Matrix raised his eyebrows and said: "I do have an anti-gravity module, but your mechanical fighting beast is very heavy. Even if you use the same anti-gravity module as the Black Feather Spirit, you can't fly at maximum power."

"It can reduce the impact of gravity and increase running speed." Lu Heng can understand that different weights of the body have different power requirements for the anti-gravity module.

The weight of the Black Feather Spirit is estimated to be only one-tenth of the mechanical tiger. The anti-gravity module used on the Black Feather Spirit is installed on the mechanical tiger, so it naturally cannot fly.

Xavier Matrix used electromagnetic signals to notify the housework robot to take out an anti-gravity module from the basement.

Lu Heng took it and looked at it. It was a rectangular module. From the outside, there was nothing special about it.

He handed it to the mechanical tiger for adaptation.

The mechanical tiger was installed under the liquid metal shell. After the adaptation was completed, the anti-gravity module was activated, and the weight was reduced to 36% of the original.

It was only the weight that was reduced, not the mass.

On Blue Star, mass is often equated with weight, but the two are actually different.

Xavier Matrix looked at the effect and said, "If there is a chance to meet again in the future, I can make an anti-gravity module for your mechanical beast alone."

Lu Heng was very happy to hear this promise.

However, making an anti-gravity module is definitely not something that can be completed in a few days, so the "chance to meet in the future" he said refers to the next time he is recruited.

So, whether there will be a chance to meet in the future is really hard to say.

...

In the next three days.

Lu Heng began to investigate several secret bases of the Advent Sect around City No. 3.

In terms of reconnaissance, Su Muyu is naturally the best.

For most of the Adventist bases, you only need to send the Divine Feather Eagle to fly in stealthily, and everything will be clear.

Only when you encounter a base that the Divine Feather Eagle cannot enter, you need to think of other ways.

Usually Lu Heng uses the illusion orb to transform into a member of the Adventist, and then enters the base to investigate.

Three days.

After investigating five secret bases of the Adventist, a laboratory for studying mechanical demons was discovered, but the source of abyss pollution was not found.

The challenge task requires finding the source of abyss pollution, and finding the mechanical demon laboratory is useless.

Instead, the investigation data can be handed over to Ye Lianna Sykes, and Sykes civilization can solve this problem by itself.

On the third night.

Lu Heng and the other two, plus Yuan Yaoyao, began to investigate the sixth secret base of the Adventist.

Xavier Matrix provided the coordinates of a total of seven Adventist bases, so there are still two left to investigate.

The sixth one in front of us, if the source of abyss pollution cannot be found in this base, then there is only the last target left.

Of course, it is also possible that there is no source of abyss pollution in the Adventist.

If that's the case, then this challenge mission can't be completed.

Because time is running out, there is only one and a half days left before returning.

...

As with the previous plan, Su Muyu will release the Divine Feather Eagle for reconnaissance.

After reconnaissance around the periphery, Su Muyu said: "The guards of this base are more stringent than the previous five bases. I can't get in at all unless I break through by force, but that will alert the enemy."

Lu Heng stood up and said: "Then I'll do it."

The four of them waited outside the base for a long time. Lu Heng needed a guard to come out, then change into a guard, and then enter the base.

However, no guard came out at all.

This pyramid-shaped base is like a tomb. After squatting for three hours, no guard came in or out.

Moreover, because it is a robot, it doesn't need to eat, drink, defecate or urinate.

Charging can even be done through a wireless charging network, so there is no need for any contact between the inside of the base and the outside.

Lu Heng thought for a moment and said: "In that case, I'll use Shadow Travel to go in directly."

This is actually a bit dangerous.

Because [Shadow Travel] is usually used as a means of escaping danger, once you enter, you can immediately withdraw once you encounter danger.

However, if you use [Shadow Travel] to enter, once you encounter danger, you have no means to get out.

"Is this too risky?" Su Muyu was a little worried.

"Don't worry, I'll go around and see, and come out in 15 seconds."

Lu Heng gave her a reassuring look, then used [Shadow Travel] to drill into the ground, rushed to the base at the fastest speed, and counted the time silently.

Since [Shadow Travel] only lasts 15 seconds, it means that you have to turn around and return in 7.5 seconds at most.

Under the dual acceleration of Shadow Travel and Wind Walker, Lu Heng rushed into the base at a speed of 260 meters per second.

Under the shadow vision, after approaching the base for 30 meters, he saw the building structure underground.

Just one look, it was found that there were at least six floors of buildings underground.

This is the most underground building floors among the many Adventist bases investigated.

Lu Heng circled the underground building for a third of a circle, saw some situations outside, and immediately turned back at the 8th second. In the last second, he rushed out of the ground and ended the reconnaissance.

"How is it?" Su Muyu asked with a burning goal.

Huh!

Lu Heng exhaled and replied: "There are six floors of buildings underground. I feel that this base should be what we are looking for, but the source of the abyss pollution has not been found yet. I have to change direction and try again."
