Chapter Twenty-Eight: Killing

The fourth round of remodeling is aimed at the epidermal tissue. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At the beginning, Yuan Changqing was very idealistic, believing that by adding chameleon genes, Liu Wei's skin could adapt to the environment, that is, automatically change skin color according to the surrounding environment. After in-depth research, Yuan Changqing had to admit that just changing the skin could not achieve this effect.
Chameleons are able to change the color of the epidermis according to the environment and are associated with a unique nervous system, in addition to having unique epidermal cells. To put it simply, before a chameleon can change the color of the epidermis, it must see the background color and then control the pigment cells of the epidermis.
When it comes to the nervous system, or the visual nervous system, Yuan Changqing can't help it.
In desperation, Yuan Changqing could only settle for the next best thing, using the more thoroughly researched shark gene to modify Liu Wei's skin tissue to make it have better cold and heat resistance.
Controlled by gene inducers, the epidermal temperature can match the ambient temperature in a short period of time, allowing Liu Wei to obtain infrared "stealth" ability. Because the heat in the body cannot be dissipated or the epidermis temperature is too high, it can lead to organ failure, so this state lasts for a few minutes at most and cannot be maintained for a long time.
The fifth round of modification is also related to shark genes, namely the ability of organs to repair themselves.
Although many people know that geckos can be reborn after their tails are broken, in nature, sharks have the most outstanding ability to regenerate.
A shark will grow hundreds of teeth in its lifetime and will never worry about missing teeth.
This special ability allows Liu Wei to recover quickly after being injured. Although it is not possible to regrow a severed limb like a gecko, it can allow normal wounds to heal quickly.
Because both rounds of modification involve shark genes, they can be done at the same time.
As with the third round of modification, this time there was no major surgery, all of which was done by gene inducers, and the modification was carried out in a glass container filled with nutrient solution.
After the transformation began, all Yuan Changqing needed to do was to change the nutrient solution every eight hours.
A month later, Liu Wei left the center.
Although Yuan Changqing still has a lot of strange ideas, and he can't wait to use all the transformation plans he thinks of on Liu Wei, but the $300 million fund is almost gone, and Li Tingxuan has already obtained information that after the additional combat troops sent by Ben arrived in Afghanistan, they have been stationed in Tahar Province. The location of the deployment was near the copper mine, less than 100 kilometers from where Liu Wei had been ambushed.
Time is already running out and we can't afford to put it off any longer.
You must know that the main task of the army is to provide logistical support for the coalition forces, and it has undertaken the main transportation tasks, and can easily transport hundreds of tons of goods out of Afghanistan.
According to information obtained by Li Tingxuan, the Air Self-Defense Force sent more than 20 C-130s to Afghanistan.
These transport aircraft have undergone special modifications, and the fuselage fuel tanks have been completely sealed with special composite materials when they are refurbished.
What the little devil wants to do is already obvious.
The gold was dissolved in aqua regia or other special solvents, and then poured into the fuel tanks of the transport aircraft and transported back to the capital, which was difficult for the Afghan and coalition forces to detect.
A C-130 can carry up to 30 tons of fuel, and the return flight is basically empty, so only two-thirds of the fuel is needed to reach the maximum range when fully planted. According to the calculation that 10 tons of gold solution are transported per sortie, the proportion of gold in the solution is 70 percent, and the 24 C-130s fly one sortie every two days, 84 tons of gold can be transported every day, and it only takes one month to wipe out the entire gold mountain.
Of course, the reality is certainly not so ideal.
It's just that copper mines tend to have a lot of associated mines, such as silver mines. While smuggling gold, it is said that the militarist clique can also smuggle silver.
If Afghanistan's gold falls into the hands of the militarist clique, the consequences will be unimaginable.
You must know that as the world's largest gold reserve, the United States only has more than 9,000 tons of gold, second only to the United States France only has more than 2,000 tons, and the mainland's gold reserves are less than 1,000 tons. In addition to the hundreds of tons of gold stolen by the US military, there are at least more than 2,000 tons of gold in Afghanistan's gold mountains.
These precious metals are enough to enhance the strategic strength of the company and make the militarist clique more confident.
"This is a photo taken by a reconnaissance satellite."
"We have reconnaissance satellites?" Liu Wei glanced at Li Tingxuan. Although Liu Wei used satellite photos provided by the Military Intelligence Bureau before leaving K1, all reconnaissance satellites at that time were under the banner of "meteorological satellites" or "resource remote sensing satellites".
"It's the same as ever." Li Tingxuan smiled and said, "Take a closer look." ”
After taking the photo, Liu Wei immediately saw the problem.
"These facilities are all left behind by U.S. companies during the exploration phase." Li Tingxuan pointed to the buildings circled by yellow lines and the engineering facilities placed in the open air, and then pointed to the facilities circled by red lines. "These are the ones that came out recently, just three days ago, and they're built from prefabricated panels. Keep an eye out for the rectangular building, although it is impossible to judge the height from this angle, but judging by the length and width, it should be a large factory. See the big extractor in the north? ”
Liu Wei nodded, and the K1 members would read the satellite photos.
"The building is definitely airtight, and the requirements for air quality are very high."
"What do you mean?"
"Aqua regia used to dissolve gold is highly corrosive and highly volatile. Even wearing protective clothing does not ensure the safety of workers, so it is necessary to exhaust in time to keep the chlorine concentration below the tolerance standard of the protective clothing. Li Tingxuan sighed and said, "It's a pity that our satellites don't have spectral analysis equipment on board, and we can't send reconnaissance planes to the area, so we can't judge the situation in the factory by the exhaust gas." ”
"You can make a judgment when you get closer."
Li Tingxuan nodded and said, "This is your task, and you can only take action after confirming that it is a gold dissolving factory." ”
"What action?"
"Of course?
