The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

Therefore, Pennsylvania was detected by Lin Shen the moment he entered the detection range of his soul network.

Lin Shen was watching their actions with the eyes of God in the absolute sense.

The same is true for Little Swan's actions.

As long as he is within the coverage of Lin Shen's soul network, he can grasp all the information with 100%.

He was well aware that it was easy to create blind spots when relying on passive instincts.

I've suffered a lot from this kind of problem before...

That's why he didn't leave everything to his instincts later on.

No matter when, you must take the initiative.

Only when the initiative is in your hands can you be qualified to negotiate.

Otherwise you can just go with the flow.

Just like them in Pennsylvania.

They have quite sophisticated stealth skills.

And everyone’s training level is very high.

High level of practice, coupled with a cautious style of action that plans before acting.

The capabilities of this group of people should never be underestimated.

But they still can only go with the flow.

Because they put the final decision-making power on humans.

This is not advisable, at least in Lin Shen's eyes, this is absolutely stupid behavior.

But...it's not incomprehensible.

If Lin Shen himself did not have the advantage of being a time traveler and the trump card of soul power, then based on rational considerations, he would probably do the same as Pennsylvania.

These are just “ifs” though.

If something didn’t happen, if something didn’t exist.

So he has to do what he can't do.

It's different from Pennsylvania.

……

"Welcome back."

"Why are you so enthusiastic all of a sudden?"

When Lin Shen walked into the coffee shop again, he found that Lydia was the only one left there.

And she was making coffee.

Although it was just hand-brewed coffee made from coffee powder, for Lydia, who rarely received guests, this was already a very high level of recognition.

"I'm always so enthusiastic about the higher-value fighters."

"Okay." Lin Shen nodded, not caring about it. He sat down and asked casually, "When will the money arrive?"

"In two days, once the funds have been circulated, the money will be credited to your account."

"Row."

Lin Shen took out the USB drive from his pocket and placed it on the table.

"Let's take a look at what's inside. I hope there's something I need. Also, give me an estimate of the price. Regardless of whether it's more or less, you have to give me four hundred thousand."

"I'm not one to break a promise."

Lydia calmed herself down and took the notebook from the side.

What happened today has exceeded her expectations, and probably also exceeded the expectations of that guy in Black Horn.

Then I have to ask him what he really means.

Now, the real thing is to see what is inside the things you have worked so hard to get back.

Lydia inserted the USB drive into the port, then quickly opened it and flipped out all the files that had been stored in it.

There is a lot of content, such as all the important data backups of the Deep Blue Assembly base...

Lydia took a look at the exaggerated capacity of more than one terabyte and immediately felt that Lin Shen might have brought back something quite extraordinary.

"It may take too long to read all these files." Lydia said, "If you don't mind, I can have someone sort them out. There are a lot of folders stacked up here, and many of them are encrypted. It will take some time to decrypt them."

"..." Lin Shen was silent for a moment, then replied: "Make a backup copy."

"Okay." Lydia started copying directly, but the whole process was very slow.

"..." The two of them just watched the long progress bar move forward little by little.

"Why is it so slow?"

"Maybe there's something hidden inside that's been compressed by special means."

I don’t know what can be found out of this.

But it has nothing to do with Lydia anyway, and she is not the one responsible for processing the data.

"How much do you know about those mutants?"

While waiting, Lin Shen asked about something that he was a little concerned about.

"Everything you need to know is known."

"Talk about it."

"That mutant organization is called 'Night Embers'." Lydia held the coffee she had made and sorted out the information about this organization in her mind. "It is the only mutant organization active in Bingye. There don't seem to be many members. I haven't investigated the exact number, so I don't know. What this organization does is similar to the Golden Holy Wings, but..."

"only?"

"They are 'specialized' action groups in certain areas."

"Because the mutant's individual combat capability is strong enough."

Lin Shen answered as expected.

"That's right. The biggest advantage of mutants over replicas is that they can handle complex things on their own. They have the same IQ as humans, but are much stronger than humans. They are not restricted by soul contracts and specialize in handling difficult and dirty work for big customers who are willing to spend money."

Having said this, Lydia paused for a moment before speaking in an emphasizing tone.

"Mainly postpartum care 'Commander'."

Lin Shen's expression remained unchanged.

"I know. I've seen it before. Their stealth skills are excellent. This is not the first time they have done something like this."

"..."

Lydia pondered over Lin Shen's words and asked.

"Have you noticed their approach?"

"They were able to sneak in smoothly only because they relied on the blind spot of the soul network. I always pay attention to the slightest movement around me. I knew it the moment they entered the coverage area of ​​my soul network."

"Then you still..."

"If we don't release them, some things can't be completely confirmed."

"I thought you were into mutants."

Lydia took a sip of coffee and glanced at the three ship girls sitting in the back.

"I really like it."

Lin Shen replied without changing his expression.

"But just like those soldiers who defend their country really like the people they protect. Even if they care about it, there are always people who want to stab them in the back."

"…The Deep Blue Assembly is engaged in a variety of research. According to the information we have obtained so far, the focus should be on two aspects. One is about the control of mutants, and the other is about the transformation of sirens."

This kind of thinking is really too obvious.

Just like people, some people have no money and will try every possible way to make money.

When you get more money, you will start to seek power.

When one has more power, one starts to seek fame.

Until he has fame, power and money, he sits on the throne like an emperor.

That's perfection for some people.

So a long time ago, many people were vying for the position of emperor.

"Besides the Deep Blue Assembly, are there any other institutions in the North City area that are doing related research?"

"...Yes, there are a lot." Lydia knew what Lin Shen was asking, and she slowly replied: "It's just that the research directions of these institutions are different and very messy. But they are all under the name of an organization, and they have financial support far beyond that of the Deep Blue Assembly."

"What organization?"

"The giants united."

"Giant Alliance?"

Lin Shen had never heard of this name.

Although there are so many things he doesn't know.

"When you first came here, the mission I asked you to perform was related to the research institute under the name of Giant Alliance."

"So those are all owned by Juqing United?"

"That's right. These people have money, skills, and abilities, so I strongly advise you not to take action against them."

"Could it be that all the institutions under his name are linked to each other?"

“That’s about right.”

"Nothing happened last time."

"Last time it was because of the special nature of the organization, and also because the target's forces were not strong. But according to the intelligence you gave me before, the person you are looking for is likely to play a very important role in the Giant Alliance. Even in a base as large as the Deep Blue Assembly, the total number of mutant combat forces used in it does not exceed fifty. Hundreds, or even tens of thousands of armed forces... do you know what that means?"

"..."

Of course Lin Shen knew it, but after today's comparison, his understanding became clearer.

If that Giant Alliance organization also had weapons, it would be difficult for even him to cause trouble.

The military uniform is really too bad...

"Is there any other information you can let me know?"

"You haven't given up yet?"

"I can't give up. That's what I have to do. No matter how difficult the goal is, I can always find a way to achieve it."

"Then you are really optimistic." Lydia took a sip of coffee slowly, and then continued: "The research institutions of the Giant Alliance are obviously large and small, and the people in them come here for various reasons and join the Giant Alliance. Some are for special purposes, some are just for interest, some are because someone behind the scenes wants to make something, and some are for financial support. In short, the strength of the institutions in the Giant Alliance is also strong and weak. I hope you are not looking for the most difficult ones, otherwise... we will probably meet as enemies."

"thanks for reminding."

Lin Shen remained calm.

Lydia could tell at a glance that he wasn't listening.

This guy is really stubborn. I don't know why he has to go head-to-head with the stone.

Was it because of me? No, could it be because of the mutant?

Lidya couldn't understand Lin Shen.

"Don't always do things that are like eggs hitting stones. This is the only advice I can give you." Lydia said: "But - if nothing unexpected happens, even if the organization wants to deal with you, the person sent to do it will most likely not be me."

"why?"

"Because of this mission, the Donghuang military seems to be particularly unfriendly to us."

"The Donghuang army will arrive tomorrow."

"Yeah, so if you have something to say, just finish it today. You probably won't be able to come to me again after tomorrow."

"Golden Holy Wings are going to evacuate Bingye?"

"It's not just the Golden Saint Wings. Many shady people and forces have to think about leaving Bingye."
