Hurt Stream pressed the communicator and kept the radio silent.

He folded the base of the crystal pillar in his hand and inserted it into his right hand, protecting the crystal pillar above it in the palm of his hand. At this time, the moon is high in the sky, and the fine silver glow is sprinkled all over the earth, and the whole wilderness has a quiet and solemn atmosphere, and even the most discerning photographer has to admit the mystery and beauty of nature at this moment, which is difficult to reproduce with human power. And all that was made up was an empty wilderness, a soft moonlight, and a few scattered ruins in the wilderness.

Waiting quietly in the shadow left by the substation, a heavy dark cloud was slowly advancing from northwest to southeast, covering the moon in a short time, as if the curtain had fallen on this side of the world, and all the ugliness and beauty were hidden into the darkness by a black line that was rapidly eroding against the ground.

At the moment when the black line overlapped with the shadow of the substation, Wounded Liunian's legs shot out with great force, almost clinging to the ground and running forward, like a black panther haunting the night. By the time the moon smiled shyly again, he was already clinging to the walls of the factory ruins.

Wound Liunian slowly adjusted his breathing, feeling the touch of the rough wall against the thin tights and his back. At this time he was like a young beast lying at the feet of a giant beast. The great ruin was now showing its majesty in the moonlight, and there was a huge gap in the broken roof, the edges of the gaps of the canine teeth were like closed fangs, and they cried silently into the air.

It's not that I'm too cautious in the year of injury, it's really that S City is not a safe place in the first place. In the Ministry, combatants of this level are rare, and they are generally chosen as priority in such important areas. It's okay if there is no problem, if something goes wrong, it is often a big problem, before he pretended to be very relaxed in front of Shangguan Shanshui, but his heart was under huge pressure.

There are a total of eight locations that need to be investigated under the order of the ministry, and two of the locations marked as E-level have been investigated, and the places that need to be checked tonight are marked as B-level, and at this level it is almost synonymous with a certain problem. And the intelligence mentions that every time abnormal fluctuations are detected, it is after 10:00 p.m. and before 3 a.m., generally speaking, the probability of naturally generated catalysts being detected throughout the day is relatively high, but this kind of catalyst that fluctuates regularly at night is often accompanied by the possibility of human manipulation. Not only did he not breathe a sigh of relief when he failed to detect the anomaly near the substation just now, but he felt more dangerous, and compared to the ruins of the factory with a complex environment, he still hoped to find a catalyst here in the substation.

The B-level catalyst fluctuates, and the probability of misjudgment is already very low, he understands the reason why Shangguan Shanshui asked him to evacuate, and it is too dangerous to probe this level catalyst alone.

"But if you go back like this, it's not easy to write a report, and you won't have to run in the middle of the night in a few days, but spare me......" Hurt Liunian sighed secretly in his heart. He opened his right hand and looked at the crystal pillar stuck in his palm, but still didn't react at all.

"Hey, is the information accurate......" Wounded Nian grumbled silently, moving quickly along the shadow in the corner, and soon circled the entire ruins, but the crystal pillar still didn't respond.

"Good water, good water, I'm Liunian, can you hear it?" Wound Liunian pressed on the communicator and said, the microphone was a thin ring made of synthetic material, which was attached to the jaw and extended backwards around the neck. Even a small voice can clear the jaw and larynx, and the vibrations of the jaw and larynx are accurately captured.

"This is good water, please tell me." The sound of good water sounded in his ears

"Are you sure it's here that B-level fluctuations are detected? I didn't find any fluctuations. ”

"What? Do you want a strange beast to pounce on you in the face, or an inhuman to jump out? Shanshui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that he hadn't found any unusual movements, and his tone became relaxed.

"Don't you think it's strange? This kind of ruin, which has been abandoned in the wild for so long, coupled with the fluctuation of up to B-level that has recently been detected by Skynet. Even if the catalyst is alive and has been transferred, then at least some traces should be left, right? It's not surprising to find the fluctuation of the E-class, but there is no reaction...... "I feel that something is wrong."

"Maybe there's something wrong with Skynet?" Shanshui doesn't seem to be interested in this

"Skynet is forgivable for misjudging below the E level, but the possibility of misjudging the B level is very small. I suspect that the agent is either an Inhuman who has initiated a revelation, or has been controlled by the Adventists. Hurt Liunian said his own reasoning

"If that's the case... Then the matter is serious, can you be sure? Shanshui's tone also became cautious

"I'm going to go in and check it carefully, and if I find evidence, then the next thing is not something we can deal with, and we still need to report to the ministry and the local government to solve it."

"It's too urgent, the ministry stipulates that unrelated personnel and institutions must not be involved unless they are forced to do so..."Shanshui said hesitantly

"I know, of course, I have to get evidence, I'm telling you this now to tell you about the current situation, if there is any accident..."

"There will be no surprises! Don't say anything unlucky! Shanshui interrupted him harshly

"What if, just in case. Okay, I'll hang up on this side first. Hung up the line, looked up at the ten-meter-high ruins, and sighed, "This job is not done alone..."

Shangguan Shanshui, who had returned to the stronghold, stared at the display screen like water, which showed an aerial photo of S City. There are eight red dots on the map, two by the sea, four in the city, and the remaining two in the suburbs. The two red dots on the beach have been changed to green, one of the two red dots on the outskirts is the area where Wound Liunian is now, and the huge red dot on it has been changed to green by Shangguan Shanshui. At this moment, she let go of the finger pressed on the communicator, and was silent for a long time, with a helpless look on her face. She took out her phone and dialed a number, and when she connected, a low, soft voice rang out from the other side

"Hello."

"I'm Shangguan Shanshui..."

……

Wound Liunian cautiously placed his left palm facing forward in front of him, and walked in through the wide open factory gate. When the contents of the factory were moved, a number of things were moved, and the things that were abandoned here in the next few years were moved by nearby residents. Even the red bricks that built the walls, the damp-proof asbestos tiles and the exposed steel bars have been removed. From a distance, the ruins are still a little imposing, but when you go deeper into them, you will find that the beast is in fact full of holes.

Walk along the flat factory compound, and you can see the entire main body of the factory after stepping into the factory area. From the outside, the main body of the building is more than nine meters high, and the inside is divided into two floors. Most of the space in the middle was supposed to be the main processing workshop, and the upper and lower floors were all opened up to the dilapidated roof, and the second half was divided into three floors, connected by overhanging corridors, presumably office areas. The equipment inside has long been emptied, and it is not clear what it was doing for the time being.

Wounded Liunian cautiously pushed inward against the base of the wall, and the moonlight shone through the dilapidated ceiling, and the whole space was as bright as day. Wound Liunian stepped up the suspended iron staircase, inspected each room one by one, and soon he made a discovery. In a room on the second floor, the crystal pillar in his hand reacted extremely faintly, and the gray light flashed away. However, this did not escape the eyes of the injured people who had been staring at him, he walked around the room with the crystal pillar, and finally stopped by the windowsill, although the light emitted by the crystal pillar was extremely faint, but it was indeed stable and bright.

"Class F fluctuation remnants... I wonder if it's really a living thing......" Wound Liunian felt a little headache, he searched the rest of the room again, and found two faint reactions in different places, this reaction was evidence that the mid-level catalyst had stayed here for a long time. It seems that Skynet did not misjudge, and it is very likely that a D-class catalyst has appeared here recently. He only hoped for this to be an accidental revelation and awakened, but it was troublesome enough in either case. Wound Liunian walked down the stairs to return to the base, and this time it was confirmed that the entire factory was empty, so he did not walk along the base of the wall, but directly through the middle of the factory.

Walking and walking, the injured year couldn't help but stop, under the illumination of the moonlight, the ground of the factory was unexpectedly dazzling, and the angle changed like a diamond. He crouched down and touched the ground, and found that it was sprinkled with a thin layer of fine sand.

"Are quartz and mica flakes reflective? This sand is spread so evenly......" Wound Liunian suddenly stopped talking to himself, he stretched out his left hand and slid sharply on the ground to gather the fine sand, the fine sand on the ground was spread very thinly, and he paddled for a long time before gathering a small pile. Looking at the pile of sand shining in front of him in the moonlight like a crystal clear miniature carved pyramid, Wounded Nian's face turned iron-blue. The ground was not paved with fine sand at all, but a whole layer of modified crystal chips, which converted the fluctuations emitted by the catalyst into light, greatly weakening the remnants of abnormal fluctuations, no wonder he hadn't detected them at all before.

Wound Liunian took out a piece of cotton cloth from his waist bag, held it in his hand and carefully wiped it on the ground along the center of the factory, and soon the cotton cloth was stuck with a heavy layer of crystal crumbs, and he turned around a few times to clear a circle with a diameter of about three meters in the middle of the workshop. At this time, the cotton cloth in his hand was already stained.

"What a big deal!" Hurt Liunian got up and looked at the ground of nearly 1,000 square meters, and was secretly frightened, he carefully wrapped the cotton cloth and put it in the mezzanine of his waist bag to store it. He took off the crystal pillar and stretched out his right hand to press on the center of the circle cleared on the ground, and with a slight force, when he raised his hand, there was a circle hole on the ground with a diameter of five centimeters and tens. The surface of the round hole is extremely smooth, as if it had been turned out little by little with the most precise CNC lathe. Wound Liunian turned the crystal pillar he had just taken off upside down and inserted it into the hole, and soon the crystal pillar lit up.

"E-class fluctuations! I don't know how long these crystal sand have been sprinkled, but this catalyst is at least B-grade! Hurt Nian couldn't help but be shocked, the other party scattered such a large piece of special crystal to consume and cover up the remaining abnormal fluctuations. But now there are still fluctuations on the ground that are up to E-class, either the catalyst has stayed here for too long, or this catalyst is probably more than B-class! And what worries him the most is that the other party has the ability to sprinkle such a large piece of special crystal sand to cover up the traces, obviously it is not a small organization, which means that a certain Advent faction has intervened!

Wound Liunian pressed the communicator as he ran towards the evacuation point of the spare car

"Good water, good water, I am the year of flow, I am the year of flow! Hear it, please answer! We're in big trouble! ”
