The planet where the Supermoder HQ is located.

The day of the implementation of the second thought imprinting plan.

That's it, that's it?

When Catherine walked out of the Super Transformer Central Lab, she felt like she was walking in the clouds.

She felt that there was something ridiculous about the whole thing, a ridiculousness that could not be described in words.

Since the last physical examination, after four galactic days, to today's official second thought imprint, she has been like walking a tightrope in the gravitational zone, and every step she takes is very difficult, but there is always a big hand behind her to support her and protect her all the way.

The second thought imprinting experiment just now turned off most of the functions of her brain chip, and only kept the chip's self-cleaning and rejection-free system.

And then

There is no then.

She stood in the sealed cabin of the Thought Imprinting Instrument for five minutes, and in the holographic helmet she was wearing, melodious music was always playing, and there was no infrasound wave that made her feel a little upset when she was first thought imprinted.

The radio disturbances that should have occurred did not occur;

The strong psychological cues that should have happened didn't happen.

Catherine listened to two pieces of music when two lines of small print popped up in front of her eyes.

[Congratulations, you have completed this branding, and the Empire is proud of you.] 】

[Let your people stay silent, there was almost a mess before, just walk back to your lounge quietly, and I will protect the loyalists for you. 】

That's all she went through in the Thought Imprinting Ritual.

She didn't know who wrote the last two lines of small print.

On the buildings on either side, hundreds of remodelers were staring at Catherine, and several sniper rifles were aimed at Catherine's tall and slender figure.

The on-site commander, Captain Gris, was frowning and staring at Catherine at the moment.

Grace, of course, knew that Catherine was the girlfriend of the White Ghost, and that he had eaten all kinds of dog food with mixed flavors.

But one of the most confidential tasks that Grace was given today was to beware of a small group of superalters led by Catherine, who rebelled against the second ideological imprint and started a riot.

In Grace's previous judgment, the most dangerous moment today was actually before Catherine entered the experimental center.

He was extremely impressed with Catherine's prowess.

However, no conflict erupted in the process, and Catherine, like the twenty or so super-modifiers they had previously focused on, successfully completed the second imprint.

This made Grace breathe a long sigh of relief.

But then, Grace faintly sensed that something seemed to be wrong.

The reason why so many ordinary reformers have been mobilized above should not be explained by a sentence of 'taking precautions'.

The above should have gotten the exact information.

But now, nothing has happened.

The main mission target, Captain Catherine, did not have any mood fluctuations throughout the whole process, and completed the thought imprint very calmly, and there was almost no reaction before and after the imprint, indicating that she recognized the content of the thought imprint in her heart.

'Do you want to take the initiative to ask?'

This dry thought flowed through Grace's heart.

Suddenly!

Buzz, buzz!

Grace's watch trembled continuously, and a message jumped out, and the avatar of the sender of the message made Grace subconsciously raise his eyebrows.

One by one, the portrait is a black historical photo left by the white ghost during the 'Famous Mouth Hui Saka' period, combed with a medium haircut and an exaggerated expression.

Grace glanced at Catherine's back, which had already walked away, and clicked on the message.

Hanton (White Ghost): How's my girlfriend? Did the branding experiment go well? 】

Grace motioned for the people around him to lift the guard, waved his hand to the side, and sent a voice message to the side.

"Lord Earl is truly powerful, how do you know I'm here? This is a confidential operation. ”

[Hanton (White Ghost): You are now a sweetheart of the military department, who will do this kind of work if you are not allowed to do it? I should have persuaded her that she wouldn't make any trouble. In about five minutes, a group of overmodifiers will enter the experimental center, and they should all have problems. 】

Grace glanced left and right and began to type in reply.

[Grace (Vice President of the Support Association): What you say sounds very connotative, how do you know the price? Are the sources of intelligence reliable? 】

[Hanton (White Ghost): This involves a factional struggle within the Superalters, and someone wants to borrow the hand from above to get rid of the more obnoxious Catherine Squad, but I can't go directly to the Superalter Center because of my sensitive identity, so I can only ask you for these things. 】

This guy is lying.

Grace quickly came to his own conclusion.

But then, Grace found that he didn't want to expose the white ghost, and even subconsciously felt that this matter had nothing to do with him.

The Overalters and their secret forces at Wrath Fortress weren't originally a system, and Catherine herself didn't resist the branding experiment......

Grace decided not to ask about Catherine.

[Grace (Vice President of the Support Association): Go back and invite me to drink. 】

[Hanton (White Ghost): No problem. 】

Grace turned around and walked back to the edge of the building, and said into the headphones:

"The squads brace their spirits, ruling out the possibility of Captain Catherine starting a rebellion, and continue to lock on to the next batch of targets.

"Yes!

"Captain Grace, don't worry! Who dares to really do it to Captain Catherine, this is also a fierce man who tears the mother worm l9

"Let's just say, how could the girlfriend of the hero of the empire betray the empire, this matter has to be known to the person concerned, how chilling it should be."

Grace smiled.

In fact, judging from Lao Bai's words, Catherine had a problem before, and it was eighty percent true.

However, once the ghost thing of the thought brand is marked, it can instantly modify the thoughts and cognition of the branded, and now Catherine's mind should have returned to the right track.

Minutes and seconds passed.

Nearly five minutes later, more than a dozen superalterers appeared at the bottom of the building, most of them looking a little nervous, and entered the door of the experimental center together.

Lao Bai said that the time is so accurate?

The corners of Grace's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked up at the sky.

Beyond a thick layer of atmospheric clouds is a planetary defense system as tight as an iron barrel.

A little further away from the planet, Dongfeng is lurking in a meteorite belt.

Da!

Yang Luo buckled the shell-shaped communicator and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"That's it."

Grace is the most difficult character to deal with in today's plan, and now it seems that he can almost stabilize him.

Later, give Grace some meat to eat, let them establish a little merit here, and complete the counterattack of the 'ordinary reformers' against the 'super reformers', which can be regarded as a reciprocation.

"Boss!"

Ritsu's figure appeared aside:

"The Superalter Center has been deployed, and the fourteen Superalters marked by Bligh have entered the experimental building."

"How's Bligh going over there?"

"It's not exposed, but it's sure to leave some traces."

Lil said softly:

"The hidden danger we need to worry about now is actually my senior, the Empire's Entire Territory Defense System.

"If she makes a move, we'll lose all the games in an instant, and if she doesn't, I'll be sure to finish the sweeping steps and get rid of all traces."

Yang Luo exhaled softly.

He smiled: "This is a risk that cannot be avoided, when the gap in hard power is too large, all calculations and plans pale in comparison."

Lu also said: "According to the details before and after the incident of Emperor Xing's forced palace that you recounted, it can be judged that my predecessor cannot act freely now, otherwise the contemporary emperor would not be so restricted." The difficulty with the current plan is that we don't know how much information the emperor already has. ”

"Wait and see, be patient."

Yang Luo lay on his back in the captain's seat, closed his eyes comfortably, and tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest.

He seemed to be able to see what was happening in the gray-toned building.

The dozen or so superalterers who had been marked in advance by Bligh had arrived at the Imprint Lab, and they were randomly divided into three batches of five or four people each.

They kept exchanging glances, and their expressions became more and more nervous.

These were all members of Catherine's secret group chat.

Although 'A01' had sent a message last night telling them that 'everything is going to be fine';

Moreover, in the past few days, the physical examinations and inquiries they participated in have finally landed smoothly without any trouble;

But at this moment, approaching the moment of real branding, they still can't help but sweat.

Actually, there is nothing to hesitate about.

The worst outcome of accepting the brand is to continue with their previous lives, become the sword blades of the Empire, perform small tasks on weekdays, and wait for their own ascension experiments to come.

honk

The green light came on, and the first group of five people entered the single passage in front of them and walked towards the five single cabins.

The instrument started up smoothly.

The branding test officially began.

Somewhere in the experimental center, Bligh looked down at the five single cabins at his feet, and the corners of his mouth were a little weird

Suddenly there was a muffled grunt and a low roar from below.

The sounds lasted for a short time, and the rapid breathing of the five superalters gradually calmed down.

A few minutes later, the words "Successful Branding Experiment" appeared on the projection screen in front of Bligh.

Bligh opened the button for the branding information, glanced at the contents, and saw a series of bright red 'death' characters, and raised his hand to modify the content of the brand.

He loves the game.

Bligh changed the stigma to 'Damn the Empire', 'Overthrow the Imperial Despotism', 'Never Be a Captive'.

It's so funny.

The first five superalters left the single cabin, their heads down and retching, their eyes bloodshot and their muscles bulging.

Immediately several medical robots stepped forward and injected tranquilizers into each of them.

The reaction of each superalterant to receiving the imprint varies greatly.

However, most of the super-alterers who have received the imprint today are as calm as Catherine, because the content of the second imprint they received is not much different from the content of the first.

The first imprint is [Loyalty to the Sherman Empire, Dedicate Everything to Yourself].

The second imprint is [Loyal to the Sherman Empire and His Majesty the Emperor, and dedicating everything to the Ascension Experiment].

This kind of 'adaptability' in itself is not too bad.

Of course, the five people in the lounge were branded as [Dead and Dead], which was difficult for them to accept, and it was normal for them to react bigger.

A few minutes later, five more superalters arrived in the break room, each breathing heavily, but their eyes were determined.

After another similar amount of time, the remaining four completed their rendezvous.

The fourteen superalters regrouped, each with a greater or lesser reaction.

"What about the exit?" One frowned and asked.

There was a sudden sizzling sound in the corner next to them, and clumps of cyan mist quickly rushed to the soles of their feet.

"Poison gas! It's a neurotoxin!"

"They're going to kill us!"

"Let's go!"

One of the superalters' muscles bulged violently, grabbed a medical robot and smashed it into the glass directly above, shouting at the top of his voice:

"Overthrow the tyranny of the Empire!"

Of the remaining thirteen people, four shouted excitedly at the same time, and the other nine looked confused.

"What are you going to do?"

"We are on the side of the Empire! We've got the news to the Imperial authorities that we don't need to participate in this uprising!"

"Are you looking for death? Don't take me with you if you're looking for death! Bastard!"

But as if they were stunned, the five people jumped up one by one at this moment, smashed a path above, and quickly assaulted the weapon laboratory under the experimental center.

The poisonous gas below chased after them, and the remaining nine super-reformers could only jump out.

The central laboratory alarm bell sounded.

The secret troops of the Heavenly Fury Fortress, who had been waiting for a long time, swarmed up from all directions.

Is that all right?

Catherine still hadn't come to her senses.

During this time, Catherine felt exactly a force surging in the shadows.

That force was out of her sight, rapidly eroding the core system of the entire Superalter organization.

She could even perceive that there were many staff members who were not familiar with her at all and had only met her, and their eyes were a little more enthusiastic when they looked at her, and the corners of their mouths would unconsciously show a smile.

Like now.

Catherine was about to arrive at a sliding glass door, and two young girls in white coats walked forward quickly, quickly pushing the glass door open, and smiled sincerely at Catherine.

"Please come in!"

"Thank you."

Catherine whispered, burying her head a little lower, and hurried towards the floor where her break room was.

Boom One

The building shook suddenly, and small cracks appeared in the outer layer of the floor-to-ceiling window glass on the side.

Catherine looked up in the direction of the explosion, and all she saw was a high wall, and she immediately rushed to the side of the safe passage.

Half a minute later, Catherine appeared on the observation deck on the sixteenth floor, looking in the direction of the central laboratory.

There were puffs of smoke surging upwards.

A swarm of drones hovers in the air, a large number of mechanical guards set up weapons and equipment everywhere, and a modified warrior equipped with a flying backpack shuttles back and forth.

Explosions followed.

Catherine suddenly thought of something and turned on her communicator.

She was just about to determine who was conducting the experiment now, when a chuckle suddenly sounded from the side.

Several projection balls floated over, and Bligh's holographic projection appeared below.

Bligh asked softly, "Captain, who do you want to contact?"

Catherine frowned and looked at Bligh, and was about to speak, but Bligh blinked slightly.

She understood, and whispered, "Bligh, why are you here?"

"Watching the show," Brewin chuckled, "Actually, I got an order from Director Reva to keep an eye on you... Isn't it ironic, you have been staring at me for a few years, but I didn't expect me to be staring at you now. ”

Catherine clenched her fists slightly.

Bligh sighed: "Everyone wants to find a tree to lean on, so that they can enjoy the shade, keep out the rain, and shelter from the wind."

Catherine heard a hint of sarcasm in his words.

Bligh continued: "Some people are like this, they don't dare to confront the big tree head-on, so they take the initiative to hide under the big tree and betray their team."

"Is there any evidence?" Catherine asked.

"Evidence? You can't ask me," Bligh said, "I've just heard them talk about it, and I think it's very interesting." ”

Catherine suddenly understood.

If she wanted proof that those people were traitors, she could go to the tree she was backing to One by One.

"Alright, it's over."

Bligh said slowly:

"Get some rest, Captain Catherine, and you'll be watched.

"I didn't expect that the factional struggle within our super-reformers would be so fierce, but you didn't do anything, and successfully completed the second brand, writing [loyalty to the Sherman Empire and His Majesty the Emperor, and dedicating everything to the ascension experiment] into your subconscious, and the empire should not continue to doubt you.

"I still have a lot of work to do, alas, what a hard life."

Catherine immediately jotted down the contents of the New Thinking Imprint.

Bligh's projection vanished, and the three projection balls also turned around and flew away, quickly disappearing.

Are those people traitors in their own team?

Catherine stared at the flames coming from the Central Laboratory building and remained motionless for a long time.

Extraplanetary.

The Dongfeng quietly sailed away from the meteorite belt and secretly sailed into deep space.

Yang Luo heard what the law said, 'The traces have been cleared', and the boulder suspended in his heart finally fell.

In the past few days, with the efforts of him and Bligh, he has successfully screened out the traitors in Catherine's small team, helped Catherine keep the basic team, and successfully survived this crisis.

He had to help Catherine get here.

As for whether Catherine can be a qualified leader, it's up to her.

By the way, Yang Luo also got a little bit of power expansion, that is, Bligh eroded the level of most of the upper echelons of the super-reformer organization.

"Boss, we still have a few days to spare, should we visit the Valkyrie, or go back to the Dark Star?"

Yang Luo said: "Then let's go and see Po Sa."

"Uh," Ritsu said, listening, "I'd suggest you go back to the Dark Star." ”

"What's wrong?"

Ritsu smiled: "I just checked the news, Miss Hera's formation has begun to return, because there is an exact route and continuous jump coordinate points, and it will be able to reach the Dark Star II base in about a day."

"Go back and see, wait."

Yang Luo thought carefully, a little doubt crossed his eyes, and said in a low voice:

"Pick it up and go back and have a look."

"Yes," Ritsu's expression suddenly became much more serious.
