Only the top echelons of the "One Wing" organization can possess it.
Soon, the man located the target medal at node G06...
Chapter 467 Fan Xiao's Identity Exposed
Node G06, partition 019.
Huiying used the instance's random entry function to transfer his students from Base A9 to Base A1.
Before parting ways with Cassandra, she subtly inquired about how Cassandra was getting along with Van Helsing—mainly to find out if the two had discussed any private topics involving personal information.
She was a little afraid that her compatriot might make a move on her student.
Of course, she wasn't worried that the two of them would develop any romantic feelings for each other.
Cassandra is an A-level psionicist—she fears Van Helsing might try to kidnap her.
The One-Winged Organization has two attitudes toward non-psychic psychics.
Lower-level psionicists will have their memories directly manipulated and their loyalty brainwashed and interfered with.
As for advanced psionicists... especially the extremely rare and exceptionally rare A-level psionicists, the probability of these individuals becoming top A-level players is, to say it's 100%, an exaggeration, but it's definitely very close.
Among them, those with high intelligence, outstanding abilities and temperament in all aspects... even have the potential to become S-rank players.
Interfering with the memories of such a person, who is favored by God, is an extremely dangerous act.
Because it will sow the seeds of future trouble, ultimately backfiring on you.
Memory interference is not a panacea.
The rules of certain copies can restore the modified memories.
Besides dungeons, the game also features a variety of bizarre methods targeting memories, including but not limited to talents, psionic powers, items, and so on.
The higher the player's level, the greater the chance of recovering their memories.
The stronger the player, the more serious the damage they can cause to "One Wing" when they retaliate.
Therefore, "One Wing" usually tries to win over advanced psionicists by offering various benefits.
Huiying was a little worried that her student had been kidnapped.
Cassandra is of paramount importance in her current plans, and she cannot afford any mishaps.
“Teacher, I told him about some of my past, which laid the groundwork for expressing my immense gratitude.” Cassandra replied, “Yes, immense.”
“The past…” Huiying sighed softly, “You’ve had a tough year, Cassandra.”
“No, this is the responsibility of all members of our Holy Sword Alliance.” Cassandra shook her head. “There’s no hardship involved.”
"Hmm...you're becoming more and more sensible." Huiying nodded and asked, "By the way, you didn't tell Mr. Van Helsing about your specific strength, did you?"
"...I mentioned that I am the strongest in the Holy Sword Alliance, does that count?"
Cassandra asked somewhat guiltily.
“That’s nothing,” Echo said. “The main thing is that you can’t easily reveal your psychic abilities to others. Although Mr. Van Helsing is an ally, and I’ve vetted him, there’s nothing wrong with him, but… you still need to be careful. We need to guard against any unexpected situations that might arise.”
She paused for a moment, then reminded him, "Always keep something in reserve; that's always been my teaching."
“Don’t worry, teacher.” Cassandra nodded and said, “A-level psionic energy is too rare, so I naturally won’t reveal it.”
“Hmm,” Echo instructed, “Don’t use your psionic powers in front of him, lest he notice something amiss.”
“I understand, teacher,” Cassandra assured her. “I will be careful.”
……
After sending Cassandra back to Base A1, Echo breathed a slight sigh of relief.
My student is very obedient and well-behaved, so I don't have to worry about her being outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant.
Van Helsing's arrival was unexpected, and his purpose was unclear... What exactly did the bigwigs of the "One Wing" organization have in Division 019 that they would care about?
Huiying was very puzzled by this.
She ruled out Cassandra first.
Cassandra was the most successful test subject—a fact she reported to Dr. Zhuang 10 years ago.
Dr. Zhuang instructed her to continue observing and quietly wait for the experimental subject's subsequent changes... that is, to see what kind of spiritual energy the experimental subject would awaken.
In other words, her student was already practically a pre-selected member of "One Wing".
The meaning of "half" is that if the test subject does not successfully awaken psychic abilities, the project will be abandoned.
Cassandra ultimately lived up to her expectations, awakening the A-rank psionic ability, Silver Court, after becoming an evolved being.
This is how the game Evolution names psionic abilities.
Huiying has some guesses about the meaning of this name.
The Silver Garden—a courtyard of silver, representing the realm of moonlight.
The moon is like a mirror, reflecting the sunlight and creating the night world, where everything is like a reflection of the day.
Reflections... they sound like illusions, but in reality, it's just a change in the light that surrounds the world; the world itself is still the same world.
Cassandra's psionic effects fit this theory very well.
She essentially draped the world in a layer of false time of her own making, temporarily replacing real time. The state of the world remained unchanged; mountains were still mountains, and water was still water.
Besides its practical significance, the moon also carries some theological and philosophical conceptual meanings.
It is often used as a metaphor for a person's "self-nature".
The Silver Garden, in a sense, represents "the realm of self-awareness and thought."
In one's own domain, one should naturally make all the decisions.
Therefore, in a false time, Cassandra can rewrite the state of the world by consuming her lifespan, making reality operate according to her will in certain aspects.
Silver Garden—this spiritual power is extremely rare and precious even among A-rank abilities, and its priority is much higher than other A-rank abilities.
It can be considered the most top-tier support ability.
Yes, support.
The "Silver Garden" itself has no offensive power. The extent to which it can be used depends mainly on the user's own strength, such as mental fortitude, lifespan, talent, items, etc.
If a psionicist's attack power is high enough, it's not impossible for a C-rank player to kill an A-rank player... as long as they can afford the cost of their lifespan.
In this respect, Cassandra lived up to expectations, awakening a D-level talent from the start. Now, after upgrading to a C-level player, this talent has been upgraded to B-level, allowing her to forcibly inflict a fatal weakness on the target.
This talent, combined with the "Silver Court," makes Cassandra arguably the strongest assassin.
Cassandra's acquisition of the assassin profession was a result of her deliberate manipulation.
She took the initiative to contact the other party when he had just become an evolved being and awakened his psychic powers. She gradually learned about his psychic abilities and then... she felt that this kind of psychic power was more suitable for developing into an assassin profession, so she guided Cassandra to complete several assassinations.
Having an assassination experience in one's life increases the probability of developing an assassin career and acquiring talents suitable for assassination.
So far, her mentoring of Cassandra has been very successful.
The other party was also following the path she had designed.
It's almost a certainty that her student will become a member of "One Wing"... or even a core member.
Now, One Wing suddenly sends Van Helsing to make a move on Cassandra... Isn't this just pointless and unnecessary?
Unless... things are not peaceful inside "One Wing" either, and Dr. Zhuang has a dispute with a certain senior executive, and they are scheming against each other.
Then Van Helsing was sent to bring Cassandra into the camp of the bigwigs who were opposed to Dr. Jong.
Huiying felt that this possibility was very small.
She hasn't reported Cassandra's awakening of A-level psychic abilities yet.
Unable to contact Dr. Zhuang, she could only wait for him to reach her.
The intelligence hadn't even been transmitted, so how could the power struggle among the big shots have spread to her side?
"No, that's not right... Van Helsing said he came to Division 019 based on a revelation of fate... a revelation of fate... perhaps that important figure who is opposed to Dr. Zhuang locked onto Cassandra in this way?"
"That's a bit... ridiculous. If the higher-ups at One Wing really had that kind of ability, they wouldn't need to run around all the time nodes trying to find an S-class psionic potential user."
"The revelation of fate should have limitations, such as not being able to pinpoint the target precisely, but only locking the range... This range locking should not be 100% accurate, otherwise they would have found the S-class psionicist long ago."
Huiying made some speculations.
If that's the case, then what Van Helsing said to her before makes sense.
This guy doesn't even know what he should do or how to do it; he can only passively wait for everything to happen... which is basically relying on luck.
In that case, she'd better hide Cassandra well, lest this guy discover anything.
There's nothing for the Holy Sword Alliance to do right now, but they can send their student into a dungeon to avoid risks.
Of course, Huiying admits that she might also be outsmarting thin air.
Van Helsing's purpose in coming to Division 019 might be to obtain A-grade items.
That retired A-level player at Base A1 does indeed possess a very powerful A-level item.
Grade A – In evolution games, this is considered the pinnacle of items.
S-rank items are extremely rare and cannot be obtained through normal dungeon rewards.
Therefore, even S-level players wouldn't have too many A-level items, and it's not surprising that important figures would be tempted to snatch them.
After pondering for a while, Huiying finally decided to send someone to monitor Fan Xiao.
We need to send someone with exceptional stealth abilities...
Suddenly, Echo received feedback from the secondary item, the Bird Angel Medal—a message had been transmitted.
Her mindset immediately became serious.
She is currently in an independent space-type instance. Although the instance is not open and is not completely isolated from the outside world, there is always a spatial barrier between the independent instance and the outside world.
She typically only receives information transmitted from other users on the same node when she opens a random portal and connects to reality.
The current situation... is definitely not because Van Helsing wants to contact her, but because a high-ranking member of "One Wing" is using a high-ranking medal to contact her.
Dr. Zhuang!
Huiying suddenly felt a little flustered.
She kept a lot of information from Dr. Zhuang!
The other party suddenly contacted her... Could it be to confront her?
Although hesitant and conflicted, Huiying dared not delay and quickly took out the medal to check the information.
“I will be coming over soon. Tell the experimental subjects who have become players to stop going into dungeons for now.”
The worst has happened!
Huiying felt a chill run down her spine.
Dr. Zhuang is coming early... Her plans aren't finished yet...
Huiying forced herself to calm down.
The only thing we can do is speed up the process and get everything done before Dr. Zhuang arrives!
Thinking of this, she edited a message and replied, "I understand, I will arrange it for you."
After sending the message, Huiying thought for a moment, then edited: "Doctor, are there any high-ranking members in the organization who are against you?"
"Oh? Why do you ask that?"
"Is such that……"
Huiying recounted in detail her encounter with Van Helsing and mentioned some of her own speculations.
……
Node B02.
On a time-traveling train.
The man, with a thin face, a high nose, a kind expression, and wearing gold-rimmed glasses, looked thoughtful after seeing the transmitted information through the Bird Angel Medal.
He is Dr. Zhuang.
