Chapter 221: Chapter 219: Heart Speaker
Hearing Fogen say that, the others were also somewhat shocked, but there was nothing they could do about it.
After all, no matter the reason, using such extermination-like methods would definitely leave ammunition for political enemies.
However, the most fatal issue would come from foreign powers; they would manipulate the media to attack the Fogen Government, instigate a color revolution within the country, subvert the regime, and help their own forces come to power.
Fogen was aware of how great the cost of such actions would be, and he said, "This is a last resort in the worst-case scenario, Wei, don’t do it lightly unless absolutely necessary."
Wei Tianyang nodded; he didn’t want to exterminate humanity. Casualties of civilians in combat were one thing, but taking direct action against civilians was another.
"You just mentioned that the pharmaceutical companies had sealed off the Heavenly Falling Objects, and I want to ask, which company was it? And what ability did the Heavenly Falling Objects provide?" Wei Tianyang said.
Fogen was taken aback and said, "That’s top secret information for every country, do I have to tell you, too?"
"I don’t know what I will face, and I’ve dealt with two pharmaceutical companies in Chicken Snake Country, so I’m very aware of how low their bottom line can be. You said you’ve already lost a Trinity-level superpower user, logically and emotionally I must know any detail related to superpowers; I don’t want to face such a high risk unprepared," Wei Tianyang leaned into the sofa.
Fogen nodded and glanced at Xue Bi.
Xue Bi said, "I can’t disclose which pharmaceutical company it was for the time being, and it’s not convenient to tell you the intelligence concerning the Heavenly Falling Objects... but I can give you detailed information about that Trinity individual. I believe he and the source of the disease will be the biggest threats in your operation."
"It’ll have to do," Wei Tianyang said.
He watched Xue Bi turn around and ask the man in the back seat for a laptop, but his mind was preoccupied with other matters.
Wei Tianyang wanted to obtain the Heavenly Falling Objects of the Libitelli, and for some reason, he felt an urge inside him; he wanted to devour these things as much as possible.
In Chicken Snake Country, that urge was still vague, and killing people provided some relief. Afterward, the compulsion became more concrete, and it wasn’t until he encountered that living spider in the Seychelles Waters with Spencer that he was certain a new instinct had emerged within him, just like that spider, to devour more of the Heavenly Falling Objects.
Xue Bi pushed the laptop in front of Wei Tianyang, and on the screen was a detailed document starting with a photo of a Caucasian female, about 27 years old, with skin as frighteningly pale as Yaha’s and equally white hair, but her eyes were a light purple, and she wore an indifferent expression.
This woman’s codename was "Heart Whisperer," with the ability to hear the mental activities of all humans within a 20-kilometer radius, and moreover, by making physical contact with an individual, she could retrieve all of that person’s short-term memories from the past two days and long-term memories from the past two months. And most twisted of all, she could plant a somewhat short piece of short-term memory into the person she touched, causing them to mistakenly believe it was their original intent.
At this, Wei Tianyang was somewhat astonished, and Zhao Ling was also very surprised, whispering, "The Trinity of every country is indeed no trifling matter..."
Wei Tianyang asked, "This seems like a superpower suited for specialized interrogation; why would they send her in?"
"Because she can indirectly change people’s minds by implanting short-term memories, that’s why we sent her in, along with two special forces units for protection and a medical team providing antidote support. The mission of this force in the quarantine zone wasn’t to kill but to convert..." Xue Bi said.
"That’s too optimistic. She’s just one person, and yet you expect her to convert a whole city of patients with this method?" Zhao Ling said.
"We didn’t make assumptions; before sending her in, we conducted experiments. She could hear these people’s heartbeats and indeed could change their minds. The patients whose memories she implanted, although they couldn’t recover, were emotionally stable and willingly stayed in the containment facilities for treatment," Xue Bi said.
"She’s inside... If she’s also infected... that would be the biggest trouble," Wei Tianyang said.
"Her combat ability is limited, just a standard special forces level. Compared to you, I think she would be at a disadvantage," Banlangen said.
"You don’t understand, she can hear the thoughts of all humans within a 20-kilometer radius, which means I can’t sneak up on her," Wei Tianyang shook his head.
"People’s minds are always thinking of something, either talking to themselves or continually analyzing the current situation. Language doesn’t necessarily have to be spoken out loud," Zhao Ling nodded.
Fogen let out a sigh and said, "I’m very aware of the risks of this operation, otherwise, we wouldn’t have rashly activated you, Wei."
"What about the other Superpower Special Forces?" Zhao Ling asked.
"We originally planned to send a Triangle-shaped level superpower squad for the rescue, but Xue Bi discovered the contagion’s method of spreading, so we called off the operation, changed the plan, and started the lockdown of Lusimin," Fogen explained.
"Good, I only need to deal with her. And that thing which may or may not exist," Wei Tianyang nodded.
Now, the situation was clear, the biggest threat being the Telepath. She was practically a human radar, and with her whereabouts unknown, there was no way to strike first.
Wei Tianyang considered infiltrating Lusimin in the shadow world, but with the Moth Shape severely damaged, he could only rely on walking.
"Here is the complete map of Lusimin City, all versions: satellite, navigation, military... they’re all here for you. Your weaponry will also be provided by us, we will also provide aerial reconnaissance support and transport, and if necessary, long-range artillery support. I authorize you to open fire in Lusimin City, and if necessary, to kill... no matter what the identity of the person was before, as long as they attempt to harm you, you’re cleared to shoot," Fogen said.
"Give me one night to prepare," Wei Tianyang said.
Fogen nodded and replied, "Then... as soon as possible, that city... won’t last much longer."
The covert meeting thus concluded, Fogen was unwilling to share this operation with the other members, perhaps out of fear of the Telepath’s ability...
After all, it did sound terrifying, with everyone having no more secrets to hide from her.
The President and his team would stay one more night in the Jade Pavilion, and tomorrow, Wei Tianyang would accompany them to Libitelli.
At the moment, Wei Tianyang and Zhao Ling were walking side by side in the glass corridor of the Lingxiao Palace.
For some reason, Wei Tianyang felt the urge to kill the Telepath...
"No, this isn’t right..." he shook his head, patted the back of his own head, not knowing how such a malicious thought had arisen, but... it was indeed a sudden thought of his own, he wanted to kill the Telepath, to take away her ability.
Seeing that he seemed preoccupied, Zhao Ling did not inquire, instead, she clasped her hands behind her back and looked toward the other side.
Wei Tianyang suddenly stopped and said, "I’ll be going to Libitelli with them first thing tomorrow morning, but before that, you must take care of the murder case for me."
Zhao Ling smiled, nodded, and said, "Don’t worry, I’ve already called the Chief Officer of the Lower Prosperity District. If there are any miscarriages of justice, or using vigilante actions, I’ll straighten it out from top to bottom. But the fact that the youth committed murder is true, he can’t escape criminal law."
