Chapter 999： snow (1/2)

For a long time, Cecil and Typhon have taken different technical routes-the former has opened a new magic technology route, while the latter is pushing the potential and applications of the transcendent to a higher level. In the short term Look, the advantages of the two are still inextricable, and Gao Wen never thought that the two technical routes will cross one day.

It’s a pity that, making a fuss about the talents of extraordinary people, trying to select "weakly gifted people" from ordinary people, and using potions, rituals, and training to catalyze them into extraordinary people with a narrow application range but genuine quality. This has always been Typhon's expertise, Cecil's research in this area is zero.

The Order of the Eternal Sleeper has always been active in Enhancement, so when faced with the dilemma of the lack of quality of the psionic singers, Wendy immediately thought of Enhancement's alchemy and catalytic technology, but when it came to these technologies The real details... Obviously it is impossible for her to know.

"These things are military secrets. The medicine is in the hands of the Typhon royal family and several major military aristocrats. The specific catalytic technology is the same, and even if these things are mastered, there must be matching training methods, otherwise the testers are very likely to happen. Dangerous," Yuri came from the Typhon nobleman. Although he had already left that noble circle when Typhon's mass-produced transcendent technology matured, he had had contacts after all. Some internal information he clearly knew better than Wendy. , "I don't think we can get this information in a short time..."

Gawain's expression became serious, he rubbed his chin, and Hetty next to him said softly, "You think there is on the 25th..."

Gao Wen thought for a while and shook his head slowly.

He did think of Daniel, who had already reached the top level of Typhon for the first time. As the most successful spy in the current Cecil spy system, Daniel is indeed qualified to have access to many unimaginable secrets, but it is precisely because of this that he can Inquiry news will also have a very strong domain, and will bear a higher risk of exposure. Daniel's current areas are basically under the name of Typhon’s "Imperial Industrial Manufacturing Association". In addition to relying on personal connections to inquire about some rumors between upper-class nobles and wizards and scholars, from a normal logic , He is unlikely to have access to extraordinary mass production technologies that have nothing to do with his research field.

Of course, you can take some risks and let Daniel steal this information, but Gawain believes that the hidden dangers of doing so are too great-Typhon’s rogue agent is not an idiot, and Rosetta Augustus is even more so. A cautious person. Recently, with the tension in Aldernan, there have been many spies working for Cecil, and even the liaison officer who entered the "Track" plan was arrested by the Typhon authorities, and Amber even had to cut off the data. This line of intelligence, in such a tense situation, Gawain couldn't let an irreplaceable spy like Daniel risk his life and steal a recipe.

In thinking, Heidi suddenly thought of something: "By the way, I thought of someone..."

"You mean our'guest' who is a guest in Solinburg?" Gawain raised an eyebrow. "I don't think she is willing to cooperate with us in this matter. Surrendering for justice and betraying the country are two different concepts. ."

"...Or her father?" Heidi thought again, "Bad used to be..."

"Please allow me to interject," Yuri said on the side. "First of all, the Wendell family is indeed Typhon's most important military aristocracy. The family leader and heir must have access to this part of the secret, but I don't think Pakistan De Neng can help-he left Typhon more than a decade ago, and the technology for mass production of Transcendents was far from mature. In the following many years, Bud was locked in In the biochemical laboratory, he shouldn't have access to this information..."

"Let’s discuss this matter later," Gao Wen thought briefly and shook his head. "This topic is a long way off-we should focus more on the normal research route. Heidi, you can try to arrange people to contact Let’s take a look at Wendell’s father and daughter, but be careful not to cause adverse effects. Before that, Wendy and Yuri, you still follow the previous plan, first select some matchers from the mages for training. During the war, our mental protection unit It must be put into use as soon as possible, even if only a small amount of elite is invested, it can also increase the survival probability of frontline soldiers."

After arranging things properly, Gao Wen didn't stay in the laboratory any longer-before the evening, he had to preside over a meeting of consuls.

Leaving the research facility, Gawain and Heidi were walking on the way to the parking lot. A cold wind blew, causing Hety, who had not turned on the breeze shield, to shrink his neck subconsciously.

Gao Wen raised his head and saw that the sky had become gloomy for some time. Lead-colored thick clouds covered the earth. The turbulent cold wind ran through the clouds. Some crystal clear snowflakes fluttered in the wind. The ground fell down.

"It's snowing..." Heidi also raised her head, and the snowflakes falling from the sky reflected in her transparent eyes. She stretched out her hand. A snowflake touched her fingertips, but it turned into a drop of water within a few seconds. The first snow in the southern border this year came really late..."

“It’s snowed in the Holy Spirit Plains last week,” said Gao Wen. “The Bureau of Astronomical Studies has compared the patterns of rain, snow and temperature changes over the years, and believes that there may be a cold winter this year... than every one of the past two decades. It’s cold in winter."

"The textile trade with Typhon has been suspended due to the impact of the war. At least until the end of the war, it is impossible for us to get cheap textiles from the East," Heti said seriously. "Fortunately, our large purchases last year and the western plains The cotton spinning production that has always been maintained has accumulated enough stocks, and there is no need to worry about the supply of cotton clothing this winter. Of course, if the war continues to continue like this, we have to consider expanding the scale of cotton spinning production-this year’s baby boom has brought a lot of The new population requires additional supplies of textiles, medicines and food. In this regard, the Ministry of Agriculture is already formulating corresponding plans."

"...Is the impact already beginning to show... Typhon people should not be much better this winter. Many of their railway lines are still unable to operate independently. A large number of factories are waiting for our finished parts," Gao Wen shook his head. " This will be a test of the new international rules and the first test of the two settlement areas. Typhon people will definitely find a way to maintain their market in the southern part of the mainland, and our trade with the western part of the mainland must continue as usual. News of the war should have spread to all countries by this time, and steady and normal trade activities can enhance the confidence of our allies-and also ease our pressure."

Heidi lowered her head: "I understand, ancestor."

...

While the first snow of this winter fluttered and fell in Cecil City, another snow soon visited Aldernan in a foreign country.

Compared with Cecil City, which is more northerly, the snow in Aldernan seems to be softer, and scattered snowflakes fall on the earth in the gloomy sky and thin mist, with a kind of innocence. It took me a long time to spread a thin layer of white on the wet urban ground.

Perdinan Wendell walked out of the porch and stood in the snow in the courtyard. Some dreamily looked at the luxurious courtyard, which was elegant but empty and deserted. His attendants and maids were standing not far away, but he felt that there was only I'm alone.

A year ago, Andesa stood here to watch a snow with him. Ten years ago, he was surrounded by Bud and his daughter-in-law who had not died at the time. Twenty years ago, there was a swing not far away. Next, next to that beautiful fountain, there is his always smiling wife—and this year, he is the only one here.
