Delta: I have a 1-Haf Coin instant kill system!

Rometheus opened his mouth, only to find his throat was dry.

He wanted to refute this, to say that Relink brain-computer interfaces were originally intended as a bridge connecting human intelligence and breaking through the limits of the physical body.

But he swallowed the words back when they reached his lips.

Because he knew better than anyone else,

What did Fuke do after obtaining this technology?

Experimental subjects, control chains, and individual fitters whose personalities have been erased.

"so......"

Rometheus's voice was even lower than before.

"From the very beginning, you never intended for Relink to become a tool of Hafk?"

"I intend to make it my tool."

Zhang Zhao said frankly,

"It still is, except now it serves the R organization, not Hafk."

He paused, then took half a step forward.

"Jiefeng has already relayed what you said to me."

"If you want to research those special equipment, Organization R will provide you with this platform, but on one condition—your research must not be revealed to anyone!"

Rometheus was silent for a moment, then slowly pushed up his glasses.

"Can I continue researching preserved eggs?"

"Okay," Zhang Zhao replied quickly.

"Not just preserved eggs, you can research all of the R organization's special equipment, as long as it's not leaked."

"But there are two things you need to remember—first, the research results belong to Organization R."

"Secondly, if you try to send any information out, I will know immediately."

Rometheus gave a wry smile.

"Who can I, someone abandoned by Hafk, treated as a burden by Reis, and hidden away in Bakshi for half a year, pass on to?"

He turned around, his gaze returning to the holographic projection.

The three-dimensional structure diagram of the preserved egg is still slowly rotating.

"I need time; these things are completely different from any existing technology I've ever encountered."

"You have plenty of time, and the R organization has no shortage of patience."

After Zhang Zhao finished speaking, he did not linger any longer.

Black mist silently surged from beneath his feet, rapidly spreading over his entire body under the watchful eyes of Rometheus and Gekko.

Gekko remained slumped in his chair, tossing and catching the bolt in his hand.

He glanced sideways in Rometheus's direction.

Seeing that the other person had already buried themselves in the data stream again, I didn't say anything more.

He simply tossed the bolts onto the table, closed his eyes, and pretended to doze off.

......

Zhang Zhao's figure re-emerged on the second floor of the administration building of Dam Zero.

After he stopped, he didn't rush to look for anyone, but first stretched his shoulders and neck.

Although the two consecutive teleportations do not consume much energy, the mental adjustments always require a few seconds of buffer time.

Footsteps came from the stairwell, unhurried and slow.

"I was wondering why the air upstairs felt different; it turns out it was you."

Saeed emerged from around the corner.

He wasn't too surprised to see Zhang Zhao; he simply tilted his head slightly towards the chair by the window.

"sit."

Zhang Zhao sat down by the window and pushed the half-open window open even wider.

"I'm going to AZ3 tomorrow." He didn't beat around the bush.

Saeed paused for a moment.

"AZ3? Hudson's lair?"

"The last core industrial area of ​​Hafk."

Zhang Zhao said, "There are unusual signals coming from over there. We're not sure if it's internal turmoil or if Hafk is up to something new."

Saeed did not respond immediately.

He walked to the table, sat down, placed his teacup on the surface, and remained silent for a few seconds before speaking.

"What do you need me to do?"

"You don't need to make the trip yourself for now, but there might be a chain reaction at Dam Zero."

Zhang Zhao leaned forward slightly.

"If something really goes wrong with AZ3, Hafk's reaction could have repercussions for the entire Asara region."

"Dam Zero may become one of the targets of attack."

Saeed's gaze narrowed slightly.

Do you think Hafk will take action against Dam Zero?

"I'm not sure, but we need to prepare in advance," Zhang Zhao said.

"Reinforce the defenses, double the patrol frequency, and increase supplies by at least 30%."

"In case things really get chaotic over there, this place needs to be able to withstand a siege for at least a week."

Saeed nodded without asking for further details.

"Okay, I'll make the arrangements first thing tomorrow morning."

Zhang Zhao did not rush to end the conversation.

He leaned back in his chair and glanced out the window.

"There's one more thing."

Saeed raised his eyes. "You speak."

"If I gave you a set of special equipment, would you use it?"

Saeed's hand, holding the cup, paused in mid-air for a moment.

"Special equipment? Like the Raven's?"

"Similar, but not necessarily related to Venom."

Zhang Zhao said, "The R organization is gradually equipping its core members with exclusive equipment, and you are ranked relatively high in the hierarchy."

Sayed put down his teacup, his fingertips unconsciously circling the rim of the cup.

He was clearly thinking about this issue seriously.

"If my equipment could improve my frontal assault capabilities, I would be much stronger than I am now..."

He paused, "But if the equipment is too complicated and requires a lot of time to get used to, it might actually slow down my combat rhythm in the short term."

"Understood." Zhang Zhao nodded.

"I will prioritize solutions that fit your current fighting style."

Saeed did not ask for details, but simply nodded slightly to confirm.

Zhang Zhao stood up and stretched his neck.

"Then I'll be going now. I'll leave the Zero Dam area to you."

"Don't worry." Said also stood up.

"As long as I'm here, Dam Zero will remain."

Black mist surged up from beneath his feet once more, quickly engulfing Zhang Zhao's figure.

......

The sea breeze was blowing in from the direction of the dock at the space base.

Zhang Zhao's figure was gathered in the center of the office, where Demulan was sitting behind his desk, flipping through the maintenance progress report.

She didn't look up, but simply turned a page and slowly began to speak.

"Have you been using teleportation as your daily commute lately?"

"It's faster than making a phone call, and you don't have to wait for a signal."

Zhang Zhao pulled out the chair opposite her and sat down.

Demoulin snorted and put down the report.

"Speak, what is it? You don't usually come here for no reason."

"I'm going to AZ3 tomorrow," Zhang Zhao said without beating around the bush.

Demoulins's hand holding the cup paused for a moment in mid-air.

"AZ3? Hudson's territory?"

"Hafk is the last core industrial area in the east."

Zhang Zhao said, "There are abnormal signals coming from over there. The specific reason is still unclear, but GTI's senior management has already taken notice of it."

Demoulin placed his hands on the table, crossed.

"Are you going alone?"

"Nameless and Liquid Nitrogen will go together; the rest of you will stay in Zadeh City."

Demoulan nodded slightly, without asking for further details.

"What preparations need to be made at the space base?"

"Just like Dam Zero," Zhang Zhao said.

"If large-scale unrest does occur in AZ3, Hafk's reaction could have repercussions throughout Asara."

"The space base, as a key port and communication node, may become a target for capture."

"I will raise the security level at the dock by two levels," Demoulins said.

"Supplies have also been restored to above normal levels, and it shouldn't be a problem to last for a while."

"Gheros is still with me, so there shouldn't be any major problems..."

"There's one more thing," Zhang Zhao said, leaning back in his chair.
