Thrive in Catastrophe

"It even shuts down the thinking function of the brain." Heine already understood.

"That's right. Strictly speaking, Xiao Yan's brain hasn't stopped functioning now, it's just that he doesn't think anymore."

"So we need to remove this suffix."

"Heine! You used to be a student of the Central Academy of Sciences! Don't you understand what a virus is? Once it enters the human body...it's like a part of the human body! No matter who created the virus, his purpose is It is not the host that kills the virus, so he must have an antiviral drug in his hand! Only this thing can wake up Xiao Yan. Losing the ability to think is not terrible, but we cannot estimate the impact of this neuron termination on his brain. What kind of harm is caused. So the virus maker must be found as soon as possible."

"Jane Wallis."

Lieutenant General Ewell pressed his forehead, "I heard Hitty's report from Admiral Sharif. Jane Wallis took Casey away from the Tide Organization, and they also became the target of the Tide. Jane Wallis is The ideal shell for Valentine, the leader of the Tide. We won't find him that easily."

Heine turned around abruptly.

"Where are you going? Heine!"

"Torture troops."

In fact, since Xiao Yan lost consciousness, Hiti has been constantly reviewing his interrogation process.He wants to know where he made a mistake, and what caused everything now.

He admitted that he was not reconciled, because he still remembered the feeling Xiao Yan brought him.His fingers skimmed the waves, he teased the hermit crabs in the bottle, and even the little-known wildflowers in his eyes had a unique charm.No one has ever looked at the world like Xiao Yan. All the neglected things are infinitely magnified in his eyes until you realize that this is such an interesting or beautiful thing.

He hoped the young ensign would wake up.

At this moment, several armed soldiers of the torture unit were thrown in and fell hard at his feet.

Hiti stood up, without raising his head, he also guessed who the other party was.

"Colonel Burton."

The soldiers who fell got up one after another to guard Hiti.

"I must find out where Jane Wallis is."

"So you want to interrogate the witch Claire. But the last time you tortured her brain and damaged her neurons, I don't think she is capable of accepting your second torture."

"You came to interrogate her, not me."

Hiti lowered her head, stroking the rim of the teacup with her fingers.

"If you get the answer you want from her, will Second Lieutenant Xiao Yan wake up?"

"Yes."

Hiti came to Claire's cell together with Heine involuntarily.

"Turn on the lights, don't you think it's too dark in here. It's not good for your mental health."

Hiti gracefully sat down in front of Claire.

This was not the first time he had interrogated Claire, and every time he was about to get an answer, the woman would kill him brutally, and he always withdrew from her thoughts at the nick of time.Hiti was the only one whose neurons were not damaged among all those who tortured Claire.

Claire raised his eyes and looked at Hiti full of disgust and impatience. Although this guy was not as relentless as Heine Burton, his cunning after several confrontations extracted a lot from Claire's mind. useful information.

The difference between torture and interrogation is that during torture, torture experts will create a series of hallucinations in the tortured mind to torture the opponent's mind.The interrogation is just an ordinary question and answer. The inquirer makes a judgment based on the naturally emerging memory of the inquired, which requires the cooperation of the inquired to achieve the goal.

"I know how much you hate me, and I don't like you very much. Your brain is not a beautiful place. But if you cooperate, I can leave your brain earlier."

Hiti's adjutant injected Claire with double doses of stabilizers and began to monitor her signs.

The neurons of the two calibrated. This time, Hiti lingered on the outer edge of Claire's thinking for almost half a day, which made Claire's defenses more and more exhausted, and Hiti did not encounter much resistance when entering the troposphere of Claire's thinking.

This is to try not to destroy Claire's consciousness before getting useful information.

As Hiti continued to go deeper, Claire really began to resist. At this moment, the image of Valentine appeared in Claire's mind.

"You know what, my boy, you've made too many mistakes."

"Father……"

The moment Claire's consciousness stopped, Hiti entered Claire's subconscious.

There is a strong bloody meaning in the darkness.From time to time, Hiti can understand all the killing training that Claire has received. She did not grow up in a normal environment. All she cherishes are the companions who have endured everything in hell together.

Just as Claire's subconscious squeezed and resisted Hiti's existence, the image of Jane Wallis appeared.

When Claire instinctively thought that this image was a hallucination, everything around her turned into Jane's room.

Jane was lying on her own bed with a book covering her face.

"Hey, I just love these old things. Holding a book feels so much better than a terminal system."

Claire stepped forward step by step and sat down beside Jane.

"Why am I here..."

"It's about why you came to my room." Jane turned over lazily.

"It's great... I can still see you." Claire lay down beside Jane wearily.

"Hey, I forgot to tell you, Valentine is preparing to take my body."

"……what should we do?"

"Well... me and Kathy and Jerry are getting ready to get out of here. What's your decision?"

"Of course I'm walking with you! Only you are my family."

"But where are we going? We can't let Valentine find it, it's too troublesome."

"There is a place called Tahiti..." Claire closed her eyes with a face full of comfort, "I heard that the pearls there are very beautiful..."

"Ah, you can have a bunch of jewelry and dress up like a normal woman."

As Claire's subconscious gradually sank, Hiti knew that she couldn't continue, otherwise it would be even worse once her consciousness collapsed.

Fortunately, he got a lot of information about Jane and Valentine from Xiao Yan's memory, otherwise he really didn't know how to set a trap for Claire.

When he left the interrogation room, he saw Heine leaning against the wall with her arms folded.

"Tahiti. You can see if you can find Jane Wallis there."

Hai Yin immediately left Shire, and the aircraft waited for a long time outside the headquarters of the torture force. Major General Hiti lamented Hai Yin's mobility.Apart from Liv and Mark, Major Ling Xiao's troops followed him.

"Take care of Xiao Yan for me." Heine pulled Maya's collar.

Maya nodded clearly, "Don't worry, he is my brother."

Shire's medical team was on guard at all levels. On the night of this day, General Sharif came to Xiao Yan's ward in person. Outside the ward was the stern-faced Major Maya, while inside the ward was the head of the hospital. Lieutenant General Ewell was very distressed.

"Your Excellency!" When Ewell came to his senses, Admiral Sharif had already come to the isolator.

He turned his face slightly, and looked at Xiao Yan, who had calm brows and eyes, very absorbedly.

"It was this young man who made Hein lose control."

Ewell tensed up, not sure what Admiral Sharif meant.The news that Heine led a special forces team to leave Shire should have reached the ears of Colonel Sharif.Almost only the upper echelons of the military knew that Heine Burton was the only son of Admiral Sharif.Hai Yin was promoted to major general based on his military achievements and abilities, but Hai Yin refused the promotion.

"But I'm very grateful to him. He made Hein...look like an ordinary person. For the first time, I felt that Hein had the will to get what she wanted."

"Your Excellency..." Ewell breathed a sigh of relief.

"I recall three important research projects to this young man's name."

"Yes, the first one is the research on surge biochemical weapons. The project has ended. The second one is on the research on the tagged virus. Although the project is not over yet, according to Major General Hiti's report, Second Lieutenant Xiao Yan injected himself with the tagged virus. And it played a very important role in the process of escaping from the tide organization. The third one is X-2. As far as a single individual is concerned, Second Lieutenant Xiao Yan has also succeeded. The problem now is to conduct research on the universal synthesis of this virus , Once successful, the special task force will be greatly expanded, and it will play a decisive role in cleaning up outside the wall and chasing the tidal organization.”

"So ironically, he's still only a second lieutenant."

"We just want to protect him."

"No need now, almost the entire military department knows that there is a genius second lieutenant in the Central Academy of Sciences. You are right, we need hope, whether it is for the special mission forces who regard every day as doomsday or the Central Academy of Sciences with heavy losses. If he wakes up, make him a major, he deserves the respect of all."

"Your Mightiness……"

"You think the rank of major is too low, don't you? But I don't want this kid to soar into the sky, and he will easily forget who he is if he climbs too fast and goes too high."

Sharif smiled, got up and left.

Ewell looked at Sharif's back and sighed deeply.

"Are you worried? Casey is now with Jane Wallis. Heine will confront Jane, and it is very likely that he will also confront Casey head-on." Major General Gordon came behind Ewell at some point.

"At this moment, I still believe in Casey. This kid always wants to prove something in front of me. Especially my trust in him." Ewell turned around slowly, leaned against the wall, and looked at Gordon Major General, "What about you, Gordon. Do you still have confidence in Jane Wallis as always? You lent Xiao Yan to him, but now the results show that he has betrayed more than 90.00% of your trust in him. "

"I have never had 60.00% trust in Jane Wallis, not even [-]%. I only trust a little bit. He wants to subvert the tide more than I do."

"Then we'll wait and see what explanation he has for the virus in Xiao Yan's body."

An hour later, the aircraft of the Special Task Force came over the South Pacific.

"Target confirmed, Tahiti."

Below them are islands like pearls in the sea.

Major Ling Xiao ordered a scan, and the system found an underground building.Ling Xiao led his team members to land.

"Boss, do you think Jane Wallis is really in that underground base? It's Casey who is following him! Maybe they will release biological and chemical weapons in the base..." Mark looked at the beautiful building. Tropical islands, hidden murderous intentions under the calm natural scenery.

"You and Liv are on standby in the air."

Heine came to the hatch.

"Boss!" Liv grabbed Heine, "I don't believe Major Ling Xiao! After all, he used to be Jane Wallis' subordinate!"

"He passed Hiti's interrogation."

After speaking, Hein stepped out of the cabin and fell straight down. When the rope was pulled up to the limit, he landed on the beach of the island.

"The boss chose the wrong landing spot?" Mark watched Heine walking on the beach unhurriedly.

"He never misses."

At this time, Major Ling Xiao led his subordinates to blow up the entrance of the underground base, and when they entered, they found that it was empty.

"Jane Wallis! Get out of here—Jane Wallis!"

At this moment, something is projected on the dark wall.

Jane Wallis's sluggish face is projected onto the screen.

"Hey, let me guess..." Jane folded her palms together, her fingertips resting on her lips, "It should not be Colonel Burton who is known for his calmness, but my old subordinate Ling Xiao who rushed in."

Ling Xiao raised his head, squinted his eyes, and then noticed that there seemed to be a machine running on the opposite side of the wall, and it emitted light to form images on the wall.

"I like all retro things, including this thing, 200 years ago, people called it a projector. Very good, right. Ling Xiao, I know that because of me, you were questioned by the military department, and it hurt you as a soldier dignity, but if it wasn’t for me, you might never have the experience of being tortured in your life, it’s a unique experience.”

Jane Wallis had a "you gotta thank me" look.

Ling Xiao gritted his teeth for an instant, raised the blade and was about to swing it at the projector.

"Hey! It's an antique! Don't destroy it."

The more Jane expected Ling Xiao's reaction, the angrier Ling Xiao became. The projector was pierced by the blade and fell apart.

Heine, who was walking on the beach at this time, stretched out her hand and watched the sun pass through her fingers and cast shadows on the gravel with a blank expression.

In the distance, the figure of a man lying under a palm tree facing the sea.

It was Jane Wallis.

"I didn't quite understand why Xiao Yan liked to lie on the beach and bask in the sun so much, doing nothing for a day."

Jane's elongated voice echoed the sound of the waves.

"Give me the antiviral."

The coldness in Heine's eyes and the warm sea breeze here are like two worlds.

"You know every time he comes back to me it hurts me because he keeps getting sunburned. Red patches on his arms and legs. I have to be very careful rubbing the medicine on his skin , otherwise he will frown, even if it hurts, he won't tell me."

Jane propped up her upper body and patted the gravel on her body against the palm tree.

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense."

"Come on, Colonel Burton. We didn't talk much when we were in the same unit, and there were even so many people who saw me as your successor. Of course, since you accepted X-2, this Successors are clearly redundant."

"All of this is your trap. Your goal is not Xiao Yan, but Tide Surge."

"Aha, it seems that Major General Gordon told you everything. I tried my best to take Xiao Yan away from Shire, just to use his brain speed to deal with Valentine Sheen. But I didn't expect to inject him Xiao Yan's X virus was tampered with by Valentine."

"If you don't have antiviral on hand, tell me where Valentine is."

Jane didn't answer Heine's question, but lazily raised another question: "Why are you sure I'm not in that underground base, but by the sea?"

He stepped forward step by step and came under the sun.

His unrestrained and unruly attitude is in stark contrast to Heine's coldness and unshakability, like two extremes.

"Because Xiao Yan likes the sea. And Xia Erben is underground. You have stayed underground for too long, and you are unwilling not to see the sun."

"You really know me."

Jane chuckled, and at that moment, Heine's figure suddenly came in front of him. The sharp blade cut through the sunlight and touched the skin of Jane's neck. And the movement of him pulling out the dagger on his leg was so fast that the following sight almost shattered.When the tip of the dagger was about to touch the back of Heine's neck, Heine suddenly turned around and struck sideways, only to hear a very sharp metal impact, and Heine's sharp blade blocked Jane's dagger.

"Aha, X-2 makes you much stronger than before." Jane touched her chin, "It is indeed Xiao Yan's masterpiece."

A shadow shrouded them. Even without raising Heine's head, Heine knew that above his head was an aircraft with a silent engine. It was Casey's masterpiece at first glance.

"You don't want him to sleep forever." Heine's voice was abnormally cold under the scorching sun.

"Yes, I don't want to. So Heine Burton, I don't need you to pay too much. I only want one thing. Your blood sample."

Jane threw a blood sample container at the opponent, and Heine grabbed it firmly.

"Xiao Yan is very stubborn. He will not disclose his research to anyone, even his friend Casey for many years. We need X-2, as long as we give Casey the opportunity to study your blood samples. Don't worry, we have no plans Go to Shire and mess things up again."

Heine's blade slashed across his palm, and the blood flowed into the bottom of the container.He tosses it back to Jane.

"Thank you for your sponsorship, I believe we still have a lot to do together."

As soon as Jane's finger pressed, the rope rushed to the sky and connected with the aircraft. When he ascended to a height that Heine could not reach, a glass bottle fell down.

"I miss him very much." Jane paused in mid-air, her hair being pulled by the wind, "Protect him. I don't want to regret returning him to Charles."

Heine stretched out her hand, without moving half a step, and firmly grasped the glass bottle.

As soon as Jane's aircraft was about to leave, Ling Xiao's troops chased after it.

It was a wild bombardment at sea, and five or six missiles were fired.

Heine returned to the cockpit indifferently.

"Boss! Are we going to hunt down Jane Wallis too?" Mark asked loudly. Seeing Jane Wallis, he couldn't help hating his teeth, wishing he could send him an atomic bomb too.

"Cover Major Ling Xiao."

Although Mark didn't understand Heine's order, he never doubted it.

They followed Major Ling Xiao's three aircraft.

Sure enough, after Jane's aircraft performed a rapid maneuver, it finally launched a missile.

But the missile suddenly disintegrated in the air, turning into a group of extremely fast small missiles, scattered in different directions, but aimed directly at Ling Xiao's three aircraft.

Almost at the same time, Hai Yin's aircraft suddenly came to the top of the sky, and fired a row of missiles in front of Ling Xiao's aircraft. The accuracy of the shooting was astonishing. The row of small missiles were completely hit and exploded in the sky. Come.

"Oh—" Casey in the cockpit let out a cry of surprise.

"You will suffer a lot if you underestimate Colonel Burton." Jane rubbed Casey's head with a smile.

Casey instantly increased the power of the engine and flew away at double the speed of ordinary aircraft. The air fluctuations during acceleration even pushed the chasing aircraft away from the course.

Just like that, Jane Wallis disappeared out of Ling Xiao's attack range.

"Damn it!" Ling Xiao's fist almost smashed open the hatch.

"Turn back." Hein gave the order neatly.

"Colonel Burton, we may never have a chance to lock down Jane Wallis again." Ling Xiao's extremely disappointed voice sounded through the communicator.

"You still have a long time in the future."

Heine's words are very meaningful. Ling Xiao and Wen En are the first special forces to accept X-2 in the special task force besides Heine.

At this moment, Jane propped her chin with one hand and looked at the blue sea outside the window.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I miss Xiao Yan." Without the cynical expression, Jane's side face was even a little lonely.

Casey gave him a blank look.

"I don't even know how you came to like him."

"Isn't it all your fault?"

"My fault? Who do you like, it's none of my business!"
