"Sir Godfather."
On the morning of the fourth day, Chen Chen was woken up by Little X again. When he opened his eyes, he saw Little X's somewhat serious expression.
"Something new happened yesterday..."
Little X said solemnly, "There are new deaths in Detroit. The number of the dead is as many as a hundred people. These people died in the same way as before, all of them died of blood and internal organs being drained."
Chen Chen's heart sank when he heard this. Sure enough, the situation he least wanted to see had happened. He asked without thinking, "What about the headquarters in Northern America, didn't they send the psionicist boy there?"
"They've moved him. I haven't found the specific location yet. The only news I know is that because this person is too dangerous, Northern America has given the psionicist boy a deep anesthetic to suppress his ability to dream."
"If they've moved him but there are still deaths in Detroit, then the situation is a bit intriguing..."
Chen Chen stood up and paced a few times, murmuring in a low voice.
"The strangest thing is that this psionicist boy isn't on the list of people we injected with the L compound at all."
Little X also said, "There are only two possibilities in this situation. Either he was injected with the L compound by chance or he's the descendant of a psionicist, but I've checked his parents and they're not psionicists. So, is there only the first possibility?"
"No, maybe there's a third possibility."
Chen Chen interrupted Little X. "That is... He naturally awakened his psionic powers."
Little X was taken aback. She did not understand why Chen Chen would have this idea.
"Do you remember the psionicist who was born in the Ares Science City on Mars?"
Chen Chen asked rhetorically, "When the baby was born, I actually sensed the aura of the subspace. At that time, I had a hunch that maybe this mysterious power of psionic power is really related to the subspace...
"And now that I think about it, the time when the baby was born was the time when we sent the Blacklight colonial spaceship into the subspace. Maybe it was at that moment that we opened a Pandora's Box and the power of the subspace has officially connected with human beings..."
Hearing Chen Chen's words, Little X's heart trembled. For some reason, she could vaguely hear a hint of blood and fire in Chen Chen's words.
Just as the two gradually fell into silence, Little X suddenly received a communication request. She looked at it and then said, "01 is contacting you, do you want to respond?"
Chen Chen thought for a moment and nodded. "Connect to 01."
With that, the view of Chen Chen's bedroom suddenly flashed and turned into a conference room. 01 was sitting upright at the table.
Although it was just a silhouette and the other party's expression could not be clearly seen, Chen Chen immediately discerned the other party's actual strength from the shape of the body.
"05 …"
Seeing Chen Chen's appearance, 01 immediately said, but the words were stuck in his throat.
"I know why you came to me."
At this time, it was Chen Chen's turn to sit at the table calmly. He tapped the surface of the table lightly. "Did something happen to the foundation's Northern American headquarters?"
"You found out so quickly?"
01 stood up abruptly.
"I don't need to know. I can figure this out with simple reasoning."
Chen Chen's tone was indifferent. "The first accident of the psionicist boy was three days ago. At that time, only two people died, his mother and lover. The second accident occurred in the orphanage two days ago. Hundreds of innocent people died in the orphanage.
"And just the day before yesterday, it was the third accident. Because the location where George was detained was located at the foundation's headquarters near task force five, the next day it was found that task force five was completely wiped out and dozens of researchers were also killed...
"Then yesterday, you transferred George, thinking that you could remove the danger, but I just received the news this morning that hundreds of people died in Detroit overnight. I can almost guess the result."
After a pause, Chen Chen judged, "If I'm not mistaken, since there are still people dying in Detroit, then there should be more deaths in the foundation's Northern American headquarters."
Hearing Chen Chen's judgment, 01 had to fall silent.
After a long time, he nodded. "You guessed right. Last night, in the Northern American headquarters, except for a few psionicists who survived, everyone else has died... including our task force three."
Chen Chen narrowed his eyes when he heard this. Although he thought that the loss in Northern America should be very serious, he did not expect it to be this serious. After all, task force three was a task force composed entirely of psionicists. Without the use of the reality anchor, it was an existence several times stronger than task force five.
"So I came to you this time to borrow the reality anchor."
01 continued to speak, his voice a little dry and hoarse. Obviously, with his status, he rarely begged others so humbly. "We must seal the power of that psionicist boy, otherwise the situation is likely to get worse."
"I remember you didn't say that yesterday."
Chen Chen showed a kind smile when he heard these words.
"I hope you can look at the big picture, 05."
01 continued, his voice sincere. "If there's a need for an exchange, we can work with you to study the power of the psionicist boy."
Chen Chen's heart moved when he heard this. Indeed, there were many strange powers among psionicists. Some were useful, some were useless, and the useful ones, like the subspace navigator Shaw, were enough to affect the historical process of human civilization. Obviously, this psionicist boy had another kind of ability.
"In that case, it's a deal."
Chen Chen replied, "But there's one thing I need to agree with you. The reality anchor is extremely precious, so I won't give it to you directly. Instead, it will be carried by the task force members under my command. At the same time, these task force members won't listen to your orders and we'll act on our own."
"No problem."
01 secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "As long as it's not disrupting public security on our side, when will the task force members arrive? I'll send someone to get in touch with them. "
"No need, we're going to Northern America and we won't use the conventional way."
Chen Chen waved his hand and said, then turned off the communication.
"Sir Godfather, are we really going to help them?"
Little X said a little unhappily, "When there's benefits, they monopolize them, but when there's danger, we have to take their place. How can there be such a good deal in this world?"
"For the time being, we're still allies who share weal and woe. We'll naturally help when it's time to help."
Chen Chen smiled. "Otherwise, if the situation in Northern America gets out of control, even we'll suffer losses."
As he said this, he looked at the report sent by Little X again. After reading it, he suddenly thought about it. "My guess is the same as in this report. I also guessed that the dream of the psionicist boy seems to have the ability to kill people and at the same time, it also has the power to stay in reality for a long time. Not only that, but my bigger question now is... Did those monsters really appear in the dream of the psionicist boy?"
"Didn't they?" Little X was a little puzzled. The answer had always been obvious. She did not understand why Chen Chen asked this.
"Then, how do you explain the sulfur smell that only exists in the subspace?"
Chen Chen glanced at Little X. "This is an aura that only exists in the subspace. The last time I sensed this aura was when I was in the Ares Science City. So, where did this psionicist boy bring the subspace aura?"
Little X shook her head innocently when she heard this. Of course, she did not understand.
"Maybe, that's the case. I have a bold guess..."
Chen Chen's expression suddenly flickered and he faintly thought of a possibility.
...
In a large industrial park in the suburbs of Washington, five workers with stern expressions and tall postures walked out of it.
This group of people wore dirty work clothes, but under the work clothes, black tights could be faintly seen. Each of them carried a thick package on their back.
This was a task force team belonging to Blacklight Biotechnology.
"How fast..."
A boy who seemed to be only seventeen or eighteen years old whistled and looked at a tall figure in front of him and laughed. "Boss, this kind of teleportation is really amazing. In the blink of an eye, we're tens of thousands of kilometers away. It would be great if we could use this method of teleportation to travel."
"Walter, stay alert. Don't forget that we're on a mission."
The tall figure turned around and glared at the boy with dissatisfaction, then walked toward the gate.
When they walked out of the industrial park, there was already a temporary car waiting in front of the gate. As everyone got in, the car drove in the direction of the foundation headquarters.
Halfway through, everyone changed cars twice again and changed into casual clothes. Then, they swaggered in front of the gate of the farm.
As everyone stopped, several guards dressed as farmers came up and the captain took out his ID. "Task Force One, Team Eight, I'm the team leader, Alex."
"You guys came very quickly."
A farmer glanced at the crowd in surprise. He had almost just received the order that someone would arrive today or tomorrow and the other party had already arrived in the next moment.
He took the other party's ID warily, then walked to the phone booth next to him, scanned it with a laser, then walked out and nodded. "Let them in."
Then, the other farmers welcomed the five people into the farm.
When the elevator door opened, all five people's expressions changed. Their psionic powers sensed a strong smell of sulfur almost as soon as the elevator door opened. Although it was the first time they smelled it, this smell was mixed with strong ominous and malicious intent, causing the five people to be a little dazed.
"Welcome, warriors of the Special Task Force."
A pale-faced man in a white coat greeted them. He squeezed an ugly smile on his face. "Everyone, I'm the temporary person in charge here. If you have any questions, you can ask me. I'll tell you everything I know."
"Is this' temporary 'because you just escaped from the hospital?"
The teenager could not help but tease.
The team leader glared at the teenager again, then reached out and shook hands with him. "I'm Alex. How's the situation here?"
"As you can see..."
The pale-faced man smiled bitterly. He pointed to the corpses that were constantly being transported by the roadside. "Last night, more than half of the people in the headquarters were killed. We really need the equipment you brought to solve the problem, otherwise, we'll have to abandon this place completely."
"Who's the enemy?"
Alex could not help but ask, "Is it safe here during the day?"
"We don't know who the enemy is..."
The man shook his head. "What we know is that the surveillance cameras and eyes can't see the enemy. The enemy seems to be invisible and formless. Even a fully enclosed prison can't stop them. But as the information says, it's safe here during the day. All the deaths happened in the evening, late at night, and early morning."
"That's good."
Alex and the others relaxed a little. "Then, lead us to the center of the headquarters. We'll activate the reality anchor, but we have a condition. Apart from us, no one is allowed to come within ten meters of the reality anchor."
"We understand."
The other party nodded and said gratefully, "Do you need lunch before we start?"
"No, let's start now."
Alex waved his hand. "We're only responsible for guarding the equipment. Once the equipment is activated, you'll have to deal with the suppressed enemies."
The two parties conversed for a while before Alex and the others were led to the center of the headquarters. Seeing this, the five people immediately untied the bags on their backs and took out pieces of equipment that had been dismantled into parts.
"Crack... Crack..."
"Crack crack crack..."
The five of them moved with practiced ease. In a matter of minutes, a reality anchor that was as tall as a man and half a meter thick was installed. In the next second, Alex raised the half-ton instrument and plunged it into the ground!
"Buzz!"
An invisible wave swept out, instantly penetrated the wall, and shrouded the entire base!
It was a small model of reality anchor.
According to the specifications, reality anchors could be divided into four types: "miniature reality anchors", "small-scale reality anchors", medium, and large. The radius they could cover ranged from five kilometers to fifty kilometers. This was the small-scale model that could cover all psionic activities within a radius of ten kilometers, which was three hundred square kilometers.
Moreover, on Blacklight Biotechnology's side, reality anchors were also very rare. The most precious of them was the kind of zircon that was infiltrated with element 126. These zircons had to be synthesized artificially and the element 126 inside was the most precious substance in the world. One gram of element 126 could cost tens of billions of dollars in manpower and material resources, and one gram of element 126 could only make one medium-sized reality anchor.
As for the giant reality anchor that Chen Chen obtained back then, it required at least dozens of grams of element 126.
At this time, as the wave spread out, all the psionicists in the headquarters felt an inexplicable sense of stagnation at the same time, but at the same time, the pungent smell of sulfur was instantly dispelled!
"It's working!"
At the same time that the smell of sulfur dissipated, the person in charge suddenly looked overjoyed.
