Now that the commission has been established, and Kiriko has already paid the price, while putting on the maid costume, she also put on a collar with a bell and cat ears and cat tail (the price of the probe commission is very small, plus the friendship price, and finally Kiriko only needs to wear this costume for a week during the maid time), Chrissy turned around, re-operated the virtual keyboard, and began to operate the T.P.H.E. working platform floating at an altitude of 30,000 meters.

"Let me see what's ...... in the forest to the east," Chrissy operated a working platform directly above Kawagoe City, turning the various detection probes loaded on it to the eastern forest outside Kawagoe City.

Kawagoe City can be said to be the city where Yukikaze and others temporarily exist as a base camp, and there is also the only roadbed signal tower in the city. Therefore, it is only natural that there will be a working platform in the sky above Kawagoe City that is ready to stand by at any time.

However, including Chrissy, Yukikaze and the others are not interested in snooping on other people's privacy at all, so this work platform is generally used as a symbolic existence, except for scanning and detecting the general situation of Kawagoe City according to the predetermined procedure, it is to act as a small transit platform in the entire communication network.

And now, under Chrissy's operation, this working platform has been "awakened", "looking" at the area designated by Chrissy, and at the same time "telling" the detected data to Chrissy and Kiriko in the basement of the City Lord's Mansion.

Today's weather is very good, although it is not yet cloudless, but it is only a few clouds, and only thin clouds. Even an ordinary optical lens can see the earth at a glance.

The first thing that appeared in front of the two of them was the top layer of the dark green dense forest that appeared as the camera zoomed in. As a primeval forest, the extent of the trees is not at all to be overstated. So if you just have an optical lens, you can't know what's going on underneath that dark green.

Chrissy and the others were not disappointed by this, or this was the most normal situation, if they could know what was happening in the forest with the help of an optical lens, then there was definitely something terrible.

Momoe, who went to the depths of the forest to investigate, carried a communicator developed by Yukikaze and others, and was able to communicate with Kiriko with the help of a signal tower in Kawagoe City, and at the same time, Momoe was able to find the signal of the communicator through the T.P.H.E. work platform, so as to find where Momoe is now.

Although in modern civilization, positioning through mobile phone signals is generally done through base stations and triangulation, but this is a means of accurate positioning. Now Chrissy and Kiriko only need to find the approximate location of Baihui, so there is no need to pinpoint where Baihui is now.

Since Baihui has already fought with the black twisted monsters, and has found traces of the movement of a large group of monsters nearby, finding the approximate location of Baihui means finding the location of that group of monsters.

Soon, as the lens continued to move and focus, the signal emitted by the communicator on Baihui's hand was marked with a red dot on the screen, and at the same time, the image taken by the working platform was also fixed in this area.

After finding Baihui, along with Chrissy's operation, this negative film with an optical lens is like wearing a variety of eyes, constantly changing colors, and at the same time, there is a scene on the picture that is covered by dense trees.

The appearance of these scenes is naturally the result of Chriss's continuous scanning of the area with detection probes of various types and targets.

Just when Kiriko didn't know what kind of detection method was used, except for several picture changes such as thermal infrared, she didn't know what the meaning of the picture presented on the screen was, Chrissy, who used information detection as the main means of observing the outside world, seemed to have discovered something, frowned and said, "There are indeed traces of large-scale monster groups passing by, but ...... Where the hell are they? ”

"Huh? Aren't there monsters in the forest? They're not ......," Kiriko, who at least could still read the thermal image, asked curiously.

"Yes, they're not the monsters we're looking for. The reason is simple, because they are just ...... "seems to know that Kiriko can't understand the meaning of some of the images, and Chrissy resets the picture back to the thermal image.

"It's just a corpse."

"Corpses!?" Looking at the picture in front of me, the three and three converged in twos and twos, but the total number was incomparably huge, almost occupying the full screen of the dark red image (common sense knowledge does not need to be explained, right?). Kiriko cried out in surprise.

"That's right, it's just a corpse." Chrissy nodded calmly and said, "Didn't you notice?" These beings have not moved for a moment. ”

Kiriko, who calmed down his mood, also discovered this.,Those image blocks representing monsters on the screen,Don't move.,No matter how low the resolution is.,After such a little time,In addition to the latent monsters,Other monsters should also move their positions.。

As for all the monsters within the range of this forest, they are latent...... That was never a possibility in the first place!

Well, there are very few answers left, the least likely, but the most likely possibility in today's world, is that they have all become motionless corpses.

"But why do they ......?" Kiriko asked suspiciously.

"That's what I'm wondering about." Chrissy frowned and switched several screens, but the monster corpses on the screen were still motionless, and even in a few frames, the color of these monster corpses did not change significantly. (It's not the color change that occurs when you switch screens, it's the color change under the same screen!) ）

"If it is not a strong person whose strength has reached a certain level, and the energy in his body has become a semi-solid state, and he has not taken any special measures, and even the place of death is not abnormal, then after death, no matter what kind of existence, the energy in his body will be quickly emitted into the atmosphere." Chrissy said as if explaining common sense, "But the strange thing is that the dead monster corpses in these areas, including the heat that is most easily dissipated, have the same energy emitting speed in their bodies as when they were still alive, and even slower and more stable than when they were alive, so it can be said that they have not changed with movement or other circumstances at all. ”

That's right, the images that Chrissy switches to are the ones that can be detected by scanning the energy emitted by living beings. And the accuracy is not high, which means that the existence of all energy sealed by such as magic crystal ore cannot be detected. Although it is impossible, it also excludes the possibility that all the other party has something similar to the magic core.

"So they're still alive?" Kiriko was completely confused.

"No, it's already confirmed that they're all dead." Chrissy cut back to a picture on which there was no movement except for a ripple at the red dot, like stagnant water.

"What is this?" Kiriko's head is full of question marks.

"In language you can understand, in simple terms, it's the Mind Wave Detection Circle." Chrissy said solemnly, "Although because it is a test model, the accuracy is extremely low. Moreover, in order to use it as a detection circle, the result of forcibly spreading the range leads to the inability to accurately locate and at the same time, there is no way to get more results than the intensity of the fluctuation of thoughts. ”

This is a by-product of the brainwave operating system, a detection circle completed with the help of mystical side technology. In the end, it was installed on the T.P.H.E.'s platform for experimentation, but it didn't really work, because everywhere you think of it might be used, there are better alternatives. On top of that, the original development was designed to read a wide range of thoughts, but in the end, due to technical reasons, only the intensity of the thinking fluctuations could be detected. Therefore, it was beaten into the cold palace by Xuefeng and others, and it is estimated that it is unlikely to be used again until the technology reaches a certain level.

Hearing the first half of Chrissy's sentence, Kiriko was indeed taken aback, but Chrissy's later words also succeeded in calming Kiriko down: "In other words, they are now in a state of brain death?" ”

"That's right." Chrissy nodded, indicating that Kiriko's statement was correct.

Even if a person is asleep or in a meditative state, there will still be thoughts and fluctuations, after all, emotions and feelings are also a kind of thinking to some extent. Only creatures in a state of brain death will have no thoughts at all. Of course, the difference in life forms will also cause the Mind Fluctuation Detection Circle to have no effect on this. And the number of these life forms is not small, and even includes several common life forms such as the automatons, so this is also a major reason why this circle is recognized as a failure.

"It's not uncommon for monsters to cause brain death, or mental monsters are actually quite common. Moreover, some sufficiently high-level spiritual power barriers can even shield most of the perception methods, thus forming a stealth-like effect. Chrissy switched out another picture and continued to explain to Kiriko, "But, look, there is no sign of mental power fluctuations at all. ”

At this point, the picture is cleaner than the last, with nothing but the negatives.

No, it's not nothing, in this picture, there are still some pigmentations, darker colors than other places.

"The only thing that cannot be isolated from the spiritual power barrier is spiritual power, and in addition to the spiritual power of some special attributes, the residual degree of spiritual power can be compared to blood. But looking at this picture, it is clear that it is not a spirit monster that is being killed. Chrissy explained while sorting out her thoughts, "Where the color should be dark, it means that there is a residue of mental power, but it is obvious that this is not the remnant of the mental power of the perpetrator, but the victim." And the scope of the impact is not large, and it can even be said to be very small, so the strength of the perpetrator is definitely beyond the monsters in this forest. However, seeing that the victim has time to release mental power skills, the strength of the perpetrator has not reached the level of crushing, if the perpetrator does not have a game mentality. ”

What this conclusion means, for Kiriko, couldn't be clearer......

"In any case, the other party is indeed an extremely dangerous existence for you." After Chrissy came to a conclusion, she asked Kiriko, who was already nervous and anxiously clenched her fists, "Isn't there any more information from Baihui?" ”

"Nope." After taking a few deep breaths and carefully recalling the scene, Kiriko said, "During the call, Baihui seems to have confirmed the location of the other party's large army and is in the process of tracking. But after just saying some information, Baihui seemed to have encountered something and hung up the communication directly. ”

Luckily, the red dots on the screen are still changing during the conversation between Chrissy and Kiriko, but generally moving at a fairly steady pace through the forest, which means that Momoe is still surviving and continuing her reconnaissance operations.

However, because now communication is likely to lead to some tragic results, such as being discovered, and being discovered, and being discovered. What do you worry about when you go out covert? Quite simply, your phone rings......

So even if Chrissy and Kiriko were completely confused now, they didn't make a phone call to ask a certain audience member at the scene what the current situation was.

"This is the last detection probe, I didn't expect it to be used. Now in this situation, I really don't know if I should hope for it to ......" As Chrissy spoke, a new picture appeared on the big screen in the basement again.

Because there are no satellites in this world, and there are no eyes all over the continent, Xuefeng and the others almost regard the T.P.H.E. working platform located at high altitude as a reconnaissance satellite (or spy satellite...... ) is fitted with almost all known types of detection probes that can be found and manufactured.

No matter what you want to do, intelligence is the most important thing!

However, the number of these detection probes is limited, and after switching one by one according to the degree of common use, it is finally the turn of the last detection probe.

And just as the T.P.H.E. working platform transmitted the image of the detection probe back to the basement, accompanied by Kiriko's exclamation, Chrissy sighed helplessly:

"It seems that there is no need to worry about it, but in the end, should I say that it is really ......" (To be continued.) )
