Chapter 320: Collaborating with General Zheng Again
Chapter 320: Collaborating with General Zheng Again
"All of humanity must unite!"
Zheng Qi blurted out without hesitation. He understood that this was far from a battle fought by one person, and all of humanity needed to cheer up and work together to resist the invasion of star creatures.
"General Zheng, I suggest that we first obtain specific information about the Holy Temple and the souls of the space creatures before considering whether to spread this news."
Lin Xiaoxiao, who originally wanted to unite everyone to launch a counterattack, hesitated because past historical experience told her that human hearts are the most unpredictable thing in the world. She didn't want anyone to alert the enemy before she had the specific information about the Starry Sky Soul.
"No, we can spread this news in a small circle, like a seed planted in people's hearts. When we achieve our first victory in the battle against the starry sky, this seed will take root and sprout.
There's no need for the authorities to spread this news; it's best to guide the public to reach this conclusion spontaneously. As for the investigation of the Holy Church, leave it to me. I'll contact the spies I planted in the Wang and Gu families. I'll contact you as soon as I have any news."
Zheng Qi had secretly arranged secret agents in several major families in order to more accurately grasp the information of other forces in the shelter, but he did not expect that they would come in handy at this time.
Lin Xiaoxiao was not satisfied with this answer. Based on her understanding of Zheng Qi, it was impossible for him to have done nothing during this period and let the people from the Holy Temple act tyrannically in the shelter. Lin Xiaoxiao even felt that Zheng Qi had already grasped a lot of information about the starry sky, but he said nothing.
Alas, trust is the most precious thing in the world.
Sighing quietly in her heart, Lin Xiaoxiao leaned back on the sofa: "Uncle Zheng, I believe you must want to drive out these invaders and save our homeland more than I do. You also know that I always regard you as a trustworthy elder and a reliable comrade-in-arms.
So I will stand with you on this matter without hesitation. After all, helping you is also helping myself."
After a pause, Lin Xiaoxiao realized that Zheng Qi had no intention of speaking, so she didn't delay any further.
"Since I captured these two star souls, I did get some information. First of all, these creatures from the starry sky can not only parasitize humans, they can also parasitize objects and environments rich in spiritual energy.
For example, mutated animals and plants, and some minerals affected by abnormal energy. However, the conditions for the parasitic shells they require are also quite harsh. In addition, their arrogant character should not allow them to parasitize on low-level mutated animals and plants.
Secondly, these star souls do not seem to need to communicate through sound. They seem to be able to transmit messages to each other through some kind of spiritual energy and can even directly obtain information from the human brain. However, this seems to be limited by distance. I suggest that you must have a psychic person as protection when you come into contact with the star souls.
Finally, I hope that both you and I can start experiments on the starry sky souls as soon as possible, so that we can find a way to deal with them sooner."
Except for the part about Ling Hao, Lin Xiaoxiao told Zheng Qi almost everything she knew about the Starry Sky Soul. At the same time, she also brought out the ultimate goal, which was to use Zheng Qi's more talents and forces to study the Starry Sky Soul as soon as possible.
Although she had asked Dr. Zhu to lead Ling Hao to establish a project team, it would be quite difficult to obtain corresponding experimental results with only such a small number of people.
So she placed her hopes on the official shelter, and with Zheng Qi leading the project, she believed it should be able to proceed smoothly.
They say that kindness is rewarded with kindness. Zheng Qi, who had been silent until now, finally spoke: "Okay, I will have someone quickly advance the experiment.
The Temple has recently sent Wang Luo from the Wang family to the wild to establish a Temple branch. According to my speculation, they should be planning to use the various Temple branches to establish a city communication network.
Another point is that the Sanctuary has weapons to deal with high-level mutant plants and animals. I heard that the team Wang Luo sent out to establish a Sanctuary branch this time was equipped with such weapons. Otherwise, they would not be able to guarantee that those controlled people could survive in the wild and establish the Sanctuary.
Hearing this, a big smile almost immediately appeared on Lin Xiaoxiao's face. Only then did she realize that she had imagined that the guys like Xingkong were too powerful.
Even if each of them can control the masters among humans, the number of humans is far beyond their reach, so their sacrifice plans still need to be implemented by humans themselves, which means that when they need humans to work, they need to provide corresponding weapons and resources.
Brainwashing ordinary people through the influence of the Temple cannot be achieved overnight. It also takes time, which gives Lin Xiaoxiao and all human beings a chance to breathe.
Standing up to stretch her numb shoulders, Lin Xiaoxiao said goodbye to Zheng Qi with a bright smile, "Uncle Zheng, let's have a pleasant cooperation. I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."
Recently, he was extremely busy with the affairs of the Holy Church. When he heard Lin Xiaoxiao's cheerful voice, Zheng Qi couldn't help but curl his lips: "Okay, happy cooperation."
As a law enforcer who has worked for many years, Zheng Qi always subconsciously suspects the purpose and motives of others approaching him, which has also made him develop a cautious character, so he did not tell the news he knew just now.
But Lin Xiaoxiao, a twenty-year-old girl, was much braver than him. Even when he was extremely cautious and did not provide any information, she took the initiative to show her sincerity in cooperation.
Taking a sip of the strong tea in the cup, Zheng Qi handed the communicator used to contact Lin Xiaoxiao to the secretary waiting beside him.
"Zhenglin, am I too old to be as ambitious as a 20-year-old girl?"
The bitterness of the strong tea spread in his mouth, and Zheng Qi couldn't help but ask his most trusted subordinate about his worries.
Although he had managed to keep his army of psychics during this period, he did not dare to contact anyone else. Every day he could only stay in his own sphere of influence under the protection of heavy troops. The control methods displayed by the temple forced him to test them cautiously.
When he received a call from Lin Xiaoxiao today, he was still hesitating whether to answer it. Thinking of the word "hope", he finally chose to answer it. The good thing was that through this contact he finally had an ally and another information channel.
He believed that there must be something special about Lin Xiaoxiao, a girl who dared to build a shelter in the dangerous wilderness and hold on to it until now. Lin Xiaoxiao's revelation that they had captured two star souls made him more determined to cooperate.
Secretary Wang Zhenglin refilled Zheng Qi's tea with a pair of sincere eyes: "How could it be, General, you are right to be cautious. Without your caution, I am afraid that our official shelter would have been under the control of the Holy Church long ago.
Miss Lin is also a bold and careful person, otherwise she wouldn't have come to test whether you were controlled by the Holy Temple. If she hadn't confirmed that you were not controlled, Miss Lin wouldn't have told you the news she knew, right?
Zheng Qi did not dwell on this issue for too long. He regained his composure under Wang Zhenglin's admiring gaze.
"Go ahead, get the research team up to speed, and activate our former undercover agents. A new war is about to begin."
