Chapter 239: Chapter 204: Someone Takes the Blame_1

Feeling hunger so quickly also meant that the amulet Zheng Yichen had given her really seemed to be effective. Realizing this, she quickly checked the spot on her body where she had a band-aid, which was a scrape left from being careless during her busy time. After peeling off the band-aid, the tiny scrape had completely disappeared.

Human healing abilities were what they were; even the most minor wounds would normally take a few days to fully disappear.

And yet, in only a matter of hours, the wound had completely healed. What kind of black technology was this amulet? Before Zheng Yichen had returned, she had repeatedly examined the amulet and could only confirm that the material of the amulet seemed to be some kind of serpent’s exuvia?

It was just that the thickness and texture were too peculiar. She had Doris help analyze it a bit, and the simulation results suggested that this thing likely came from a snake not less than seventy meters long?

"I’m so hungry," Chiang Wei said, looking at the piece of meat skewered on the black spear in Zheng Yichen’s hand. Even looking at raw meat made her feel her saliva secretion speed up. She had eaten some emergency food from the game, but it seemed to be ineffective now.

"What about hot pot?"

"Yes!"

Eager, Chiang Wei nodded her head in a rush. During the meal, she noticed that the pallor on Zheng Yichen’s face had completely recovered.

After the hot pot meal ended and it was deep into the night, Chiang Wei was operating a projection screen in the modified small base vehicle. There used to be physical keyboards, but those had been burnt out.

"I’ve dug up a part of the information you wanted, it’s over there; go take a look for yourself."

Chiang Wei pointed to a projection screen not far away. Zheng Yichen walked over, trying to raise his hand and touch the air above the projection screen. He was curious about how the touch feedback was achieved, but the touch indeed had an effect.

Information on the Eye of Time and Space research, detailed opening year, and some progress records were displayed, but these records were very incomplete. Chiang Wei could investigate the information stored online, but there was nothing she could do about the information not stored on the internet.

"Things like supply information, just forget about it. It would be useless even if we dug it up; once they detect that, they will definitely change it."

"In fact, in order to dig up this information, the Shell System belonging to the Eye of Time and Space has already started to counteract me."

"So, we won’t be affected out here in the wilderness, right?"

Zheng Yichen glanced at the sky.

"Of course, we would. As long as our location is determined, satellite positioning is so simple. Unless we’re lucky enough to encounter a downpour, there’s no escaping."

At this point, Chiang Wei laughed, "But when hacking into the Shell System of the Eye of Time and Space, I used my old captain’s information..."

"What the fuck? Weren’t you and your old captain in a good relationship? How could you do something like that?" Zheng Yichen was shocked by Chiang Wei’s move.

Chiang Wei snorted, "Our information was so completely exposed, I dare not even think about the old captain’s current situation. If the project team of the Eye of Time and Space could find the old captain, it might actually be better, and at the same time, make those chasing after me suffer a bit."

"I don’t think they just feel bad."

"It’s better if they’re finished!" the woman with black hair said viciously. This way of thinking was, of course, the result of careful consideration; all methods capable of deeply digging out secrets from other people’s minds are cruel, including those that involve literally taking the brain out to make a ’brain in a vat’.

The old captain was unaware of the Eye of Time and Space matter. Such behavior was akin to framing. Even if the research team of the Eye of Time and Space found the old captain and confirmed the situation, they might not let him go free, but it was also very possible that they would deal with him in another way.

Top-tier hackers are scarce resources after all.

Anyway... the old captain’s situation couldn’t get any worse.

"Alright, you get some rest, and I’ll go to sleep after I finish looking at these," he said.

"...Okay," Chiang Wei yawned as she turned off the projection screen. The artificial intelligence named ’Doris’ beside her raised a small projection board that read ’Goodnight’, and then the projection vanished.

Zheng Yichen was seriously looking at the information that Chiang Wei had dug up. The most useful was the partially complete schematic of the fortress; it wasn’t entirely complete, but it gave him some knowledge about the place.

There were also details of the defensive forces – these were clearly annotated by Chiang Wei. She had used camouflage and cover when stealing some of the information, so it seemed likely that the theft had not yet been noticed on the other side.

Overall, it was a deliberate ploy to let the Shell System of the Eye of Time and Space discover some of the operations to conceal the deeper ones.

Details of the fortress’s interior structure are something that, even if discovered, could not be altered quickly. The personal information of the fortress personnel was also valuable.

Chiang Wei had previously unearthed the identity information of three people and now, building on that foundation, she had extended further, digging up more information on people from the same department, their relationships, and had created a relationship diagram.

Looking at Chiang Wei, who had already fallen asleep, he thought that, although this world had a rough start, he had encountered some very reliable people, not like those three kids from the last world. He planned, after the current operation was over and the fortress issue resolved, to ensure Chiang Wei’s affairs were well handled.

"Tsk, tsk, I’m glad I didn’t try to dig my way in," Zheng Yichen remarked as he looked at a key piece of information highlighted on the intelligence report. The fortress had a sensitive aerial surveillance net and equally impressive underground monitoring equipment that would react to even slight subterranean disturbances.

Details regarding the various supply channels into the fortress were clearly marked as unusable. As for the people who could enter the place, they all had to pass through several strict checks, and each person had a special chip implanted that was bound to their personal DNA information.

Impenetrable and impossible to fake.

Some pieces of information were even directly marked ’false information’ – these were internal to the Shell System and intended as bait. After reviewing the intelligence that Chiang Wei had uncovered, it had gotten very late. He quietly left the small base vehicle’s carriage.

After checking the motorcycle’s extended camouflage system to ensure it was functioning correctly, he sat down on a rock. The mechanical armor he wore was not particularly restrictive, but it maintained temperature very well, so he didn’t feel cold. This gear was designed to forcibly lower the abnormally high temperature of his body.

Especially on the parts where there were wounds, those areas were given special care. With the aid of this gear, he no longer felt any burning warmth in the places affected by the Red Star Rock.

Maintaining this state, he could presumably hold out till the maximum time limit, right? Half a month had already passed on his end, and there was still plenty of time left.
