Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 172 Spy
The source of the intelligence was not the long-fallen Siberian Federation, but a spy from the United States - to be precise, the descendant of a spy from the United States.

In the 4598th year of the lunar calendar, the construction project of the Nameless Island Research Institute was finalized by the top leaders of the two political systems under a highly confidential state. Immediately afterwards, intensive preliminary preparations began - a large amount of materials were concentrated in Jingu City from all over the federation, and the four largest ports in Jingu City were completely blocked on the grounds of "major military operations". Tens of thousands of staff members signed their names on a confidentiality agreement of more than twenty pages.

However, there is no wall that is impenetrable. Even if the Xiazhou Federation and the Siberian Federation did a good job of keeping secrets, it was impossible to hide such a huge amount of material transfers from the eyes of United States intelligence personnel. The plan of the Nameless Island Research Institute soon reached the ears of the United States top brass.

But this time, the United States did not choose to alert the enemy.

……

In the early spring of March in the year 4599 of the lunar calendar, Professor Anatoly Ichi Pavlov from St. Petersburg University boarded a special train bound for Jingu City in the Xiazhou Federation.

Sitting next to him was his newlywed wife, Vera Kulikova, who was nearly 40 years younger than him.

Three months ago, Professor Anatoly's original wife was unfortunately involved in a traffic accident while out purchasing food. She died despite rescue efforts. During that period of great grief for him, it was this young, beautiful and considerate female student who accompanied him... The last layer of window paper between the two of them was soon broken. After Vera climbed onto the single bed in the office for lunch naps, Anatoly realized that she was not only considerate, but also caring.

The old professor, who was over 60 years old, fell in love again. He felt that his life had blossomed into a second spring, as if he had returned to his youthful days full of vigor and vitality - until a month later, he received a secret letter from the top leaders of the Siberian Federation.

As a professor of biology and strange creature research at St. Petersburg University, Anatoly was selected into the first batch of researchers at the Nameless Island Research Institute. The federal government asked him to complete the handover of his work as quickly as possible and prepare to go to the Nameless Island.

The two people who were inseparable naturally did not want to be separated. Fortunately, the secret letter also mentioned that since the research work on the island would last for more than ten years or even decades, the selected researchers would be allowed to bring their families to the island.

Professor Anatoly did not hesitate at all. The next day after receiving the secret letter, he took Vera to register their marriage.

However, what Professor Anatoly would never have dreamed of was that this beautiful girl who grew up in St. Petersburg was actually a senior spy of the United States.

After landing on the Nameless Island, Vera began her intelligence gathering work... Compared to collecting intelligence, it is much more difficult to transmit the intelligence out of the Nameless Island - the security measures of the Nameless Island are extremely complete. People leaving the island must not only undergo a detailed and outrageous body search, but also have to take a full-body X-ray. Even the intelligence hidden in the body cannot escape the X-ray.

United States intelligence personnel came up with an extremely risky method of transmitting intelligence: using ocean currents and tides.

On the 18th of every month, spies would throw out bottles containing intelligence at the southeast corner of the island. After drifting for about four days, these bottles would arrive at the coast of southern Fuso. At that time, Fuso was still under the control of the United States. The United States used military exercises as an excuse to evacuate all residents on the southern coast in order to intercept these bottles from the nameless island as soon as possible.

However, man proposes, God disposes. After completing several intelligence transmissions, a strange sea beast passing through the nearby waters changed the direction of the ocean current and pushed the most important piece of intelligence Vera obtained in her spy career to the east coast of Xiazhou continent.

And that was the last piece of information Vera passed on, because the day after she threw out the drifting bottle was the day when the Nameless Island incident occurred.

This incident should have been buried in the dust of history with the fall of the United States, but someone recorded it.

He was a United States intelligence officer stationed in Fuso. After the fall of the United States, these secrets had lost their meaning, so he recorded them truthfully in his diary.

The descendants of this intelligence officer are one of these Anglo-Saxon hunters.

The subsequent plot development is very clichéd - during a move, the hunter discovered this diary, and with the convenience of his position, he collected a series of information including weather records and hydrological reports of that year... Through careful calculations, he deduced that this information that failed to reach the southern coast of Fuso was most likely drifted to the Longkou Port area.

With the idea of ​​giving it a try, he found a few hunters he was on good terms with and organized a special "treasure hunt".

It was not known whether this guy was lucky or his ancestors appeared - they actually found the lost information in a small fishing village near Longkou Port.

Although it is a message in a bottle, what Vera actually used to hold the information was not a common glass bottle, but a metal tube filled with a large amount of foam.

The villagers in the small fishing village didn't know what this thing was used for, but in that era of scarcity, such well-made sealed metal containers were rare. The villager who picked it up hollowed out the foam inside it and kept it as a wine jug.

The descendants of the intelligence officer bought the metal tube for two thousand dollars on the grounds of archaeology. The intelligence that had not been delivered to the intelligence officer more than a hundred years ago was hidden in the interlayer of the metal tube.

As the memory scene continued to progress, Sun Hang and the group of Anglo-Saxon hunters who had gathered together held their breath and slowly unfolded the yellowed paper scroll.

The information was written in cipher text, but the translation manual of the cipher text had already been memorized by this descendant. He took a deep breath, with an expression of horror that was hard to conceal on his face.

"The Nameless Island Research Institute... they... they found an embryo of a strange creature." He swallowed hard and continued, "A primary embryo."

"That's impossible!" another hunter shouted in a loud voice, "There has never been any sighting of a primary monster! Who would believe a primary monster embryo if you told them that?"

"This is a human embryo, but the meme that infects the embryo comes from the original primary weird creature..." The man continued reading, "The most crucial point is that the embryo's weird transformation process has reached 100%, but no mutation has occurred. In other words, this original primary meme has the possibility of coexisting with humans!"
