So fast? !
Just in the past week, have you finished writing
Jason looked at the manuscript that Cortana handed over in surprise, and subconsciously took it.
You know, in his mind, Cortana would not be able to write the first draft until next month at the earliest, and he promised the editor to hand in the draft at the end of the month, so naturally he had to find a way to delay the draft.
Excuses such as a bad stomach, a sick cat, and a dog needing to change its teeth have been used, but they can still be used at critical moments.
But Cortana's speed was astonishing.
Even more astonishing is the quality of the manuscript.
Jason sat on the sofa and flipped through it.
Almost after reading a page, he was completely attracted.
Shua, Shua.
Soon, in the living room, only the sound of pages turning was left.
After a full hour, Jason let out a long breath and put the book down.
how to say
It is obviously the same story, he wrote it like a running account, but Cortana wrote it is thrilling and wonderful, every line of text attracts people to read it, and they will not come back to their senses until they see the last page.
No need to modify, you can directly edit it!
Jason came to this conclusion.
Then he thought about his own level—
Sure enough, my talent for swordsmanship limited my writing skills.
Jason thought with certainty, without any negative emotions in his heart.
He knows very well that even a 'god' cannot be perfect.
What's more, is it human
No one is perfect.
Jason remembered this sentence from his hometown.
Now that he has a good appetite, he can't expect to have good cooking skills, can he
"Excellently written!"
Looking up, Jason looked at Cortana, speaking the truth.
Cortana, who had been waiting for Jason's evaluation, let go of her long-sustained heart after hearing Jason's words.
When she promised Jason to help complete the new book, she felt uneasy in her heart. She was afraid that the writing would not live up to Jason's expectations, and she was also worried that it would affect Jason's reputation.
After all, Jason is a famous writer.
Therefore, she really tried her best to write, to learn those writing skills, and even used a little bit of her "natural ability".
This made her feel even more tired.
However, after hearing Jason's evaluation, Cortana thought it was all worth it.
"As long as you are satisfied."
Cortana laughed.
Then, she put the metal box beside her on the coffee table.
"This is the 'Spartan Potion' that you exchanged for with meritorious service."
"Two!"
Cortana restrained her smile, looked at Jason with an extremely serious expression, and reminded: "Master Chief, your physical fitness is among the best among all the people I have seen, but the 'Spartan Potion' is still dangerous. You definitely have no problem with the first and second ones, but please use the third one with caution, be careful!"
The adjutant reminded again and again.
Jason nodded.
Jason would not refuse a kind reminder from others.
Of course, Jason is also very curious about how many people have taken the 'Spartan potion'.
In his guess, the 'Ground Reconnaissance Bureau' should have a special army that has taken the 'Spartan Potion'.
"Have many people taken the 'Spartan Potion'?"
"If it involves confidentiality, there is no need to answer."
Jason added.
"There is no confidentiality involved."
"Actually, it's a half-open secret."
"When the 'Ground Alliance' was not established at the beginning, all the governments on the ground were afraid of the existence of the 'mysterious side', especially the actions of the members of the 'Golden Wind', which made everyone Some governments have started research on 'super soldiers', and 'Spartan Potion' is one of them."
"However, taking the 'Spartan Potion' does not mean becoming a real Spartan."
"A qualified Spartan warrior needs carbonized ceramic bones, strengthened muscle fibers and superconducting nerves, and then cooperates with the 'Spartan potion' to be a trainee Spartan warrior."
Cortana shook her head, did not refuse to answer, she described in detail about the 'Spartan potion' part.
"Apprentice?"
Jason was taken aback.
"Well, trainee."
"A Spartan needs one more thing: the heart of a human being."
Cortana nodded, emphasizing her tone.
"The human heart?"
Jason repeated the words in a low voice.
Although it was just a simple sentence, Jason was keenly aware that there were some not-so-good stories in it.
However, Cortana didn't say anything, so Jason naturally wouldn't ask.
Jason had a good impression of the female adjutant who helped him complete the main mission.
"Are there any super soldiers besides Spartans?"
Jason changed the subject.
This time Cortana didn't answer, but just looked at Jason with a slight smile.
That meaning is naturally more obvious.
There are certainly other types of super soldiers besides 'Spartan'.
It's just a matter of confidentiality, so there's no way to say it clearly.
Jason didn't ask any questions before, now? Of course not.
"What about the national conscription?"
For a week, Jason didn't know about the outside world. Even if he heard about it, he only heard a few words from Cammy who delivered the food occasionally.
Very grand.
Many people go to join the army.
That's how Kemi describes it, and it fits 'a few words'.
As for more
That's a good benefit.
It's really good, not only has a high salary, the 'Ground Investigation Bureau' also gave the conditions for contacting the 'mysterious side'.
This is a public announcement.
In newspapers and on TV.
And Jason wanted to know some private information.
Cortana didn't disappoint Jason.
"About a million have been conscripted."
"Among them, about 2,000 people passed the test and entered the 'Bronze Indomitable' barracks in various places. We contacted the three masters of 'Silver Glory'. These three masters said that they have no energy to teach more people, and, They all said that they had descendants—although in our data, this was not shown.”
"'Golden Wind' asked for more active forces, but was rejected by General Rael Funo, and declared that 'Golden Wind' was not allowed to participate in this conscription."
"As for 'Diamond Unbreakable'?"
"They are still the same, they have kept silent, maybe they will only appear at the most critical moment."
Cortana frowned slightly when she said 'Diamond Unbreakable'.
If the "mysterious side" is already unknown, mysterious, and immeasurable to ordinary people, then the "unbreakable diamond" is the "mysterious side" of the "mysterious side".
Even the 'mysterious side' had difficulty reaching people in that organization.
According to rumors, the 'Liu' who summoned the meteorite before came from this organization.
"There are also those scattered 'mysterious people', some of them also chose to join the 'Ground Investigation Bureau' after the Sabi star attack."
"It gives us more vitality."
A smile crept across Cortana's face as he told the news.
No one understands the value of a 'mystery side' better than she does.
Whether it's a frontal battlefield or some small-scale battles, a group of 'mysterious people', as long as they are properly arranged, can turn the tide of the battle.
"Where are the Sabi people?"
Jason continued to ask about things he was interested in.
"very quiet!"
"They appear to have gone silent after the raid a week ago."
"Not only are there no scouts everywhere, even the attacks on the 'moon' battlefield have stopped."
"The staff think that this is the calm before the storm, so everyone is ready to fight at any time, while the troops stationed on the 'moon' have strengthened their defenses and started to build more fortresses."
Cortana, who was smiling just now, turned sad now.
The existence of the Sabi people is like the sword of Damocles hanging above their heads, which really makes people unhappy.
"How did that small battleship appear before, have you investigated it clearly?"
Jason continued to ask.
"No."
"We used a variety of means to search the area thoroughly, including the help of some special people on the 'mysterious side', but nothing was found."
"It's as if it just appeared out of nowhere."
"and… "
Speaking of this, Cortana's voice couldn't help but pause, and there was more anxiety on her face.
After a full pause of two or three seconds, Cortana continued: "Besides, a master divination man vomited blood and fell into a coma when he was doing divination there, and he hasn't woken up until now."
"According to the inspections of other professionals, it can be determined that this divination master encountered interference and attacks during the divination."
"And the way of interference and attack is not any kind they are familiar with."
Jason listened, and unconsciously sat up straight.
"That is to say..."
He looked at Cortana.
"The Sabi Stars should also have a method similar to the 'mysterious side', but it is different from what we understand. During the inspection of the small battleship, we have gradually confirmed this."
"Because that battleship seems to be 'alive'!"
"A lifeform we don't know about."
"Although it is mostly metal, we can be sure that this battleship is definitely not the only one."
Cortana's voice dropped.
This is now the top secret in the 'Ground Investigation Bureau'.
Why tell Jason
Because, Jason had said, he felt that the battleship was a 'living' word.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Cortana found that after she finished saying this, Jason's eyes lit up in front of her, as if... swallowing saliva
Not the nervous kind.
But hunger
Cortana froze.
She felt that her thoughts could not keep up with Jason's rhythm.
Even if those battleships are alive, they can't be eaten, right
How should metal be eaten
Put it in your mouth and chew it
Is it impossible for an individual to do it
Jason noticed the strangeness in Cortana's eyes, and he didn't explain, let alone add anything, but asked without a trace: "Where's my Thor's Hammer standard armor?"
Any explanation begets more explanations.
Supplements are even more suspicious.
At this time, it is the best way to frankly ask what you deserve.
Immediately, Cortana's attention was drawn.
"It's in the final stages of production."
"Moreover, because of your performance this time, Master Chief, in addition to exchanging two 'Spartan Potions', General Rael Funo specially strengthened your armor."
"From the ordinary standard type to the enhanced elite type, on the basis of the original, it has gained the ability to fly and dive, and can also fight in space for a long time."
Cortana's words made Jason's eyes light up.
You know, his biggest shortcoming now is that he does not have effective air-to-air skills.
If it can fly, it will solve this shortcoming.
Even if it is a temporary solution with the help of external force, Jason is happy.
After that, the conversation revolved around this set of enhanced elite armor.
From the extra weapon to the basic painting, until half an hour later, Cortana got up and left.
"Master Chief, please contact me if necessary."
"I'm here anytime."
Jason escorted Cortana out of the safe house, the female adjutant said before getting into the car.
Jason nodded with a smile in response.
After watching the other party leave, Jason turned around and returned to the underground activity area, picked up the phone directly, and called his editor Lavin.
"LaVine, it's me, Jason."
"Of course I know it's you, I can hear your voice."
"I also remember your promise to me before that the manuscript will be delivered at the end of the month."
"And now there are 5 more days!"
"Don't use the excuse of an alien invasion to say you don't want to write!"
"Tell you!"
"Even if aliens invade and the world is doomsday, you still have to submit the manuscript on time!"
As soon as the call was connected, the editor spoke with a serious tone and stern words.
"Well, I'm just talking about the delivery of the manuscript."
Jason said.
"Submission?"
"Are you finished?"
The editor on the opposite side raised his voice involuntarily, and his voice was full of disbelief.
"It's finished."
Jason said truthfully.
Idea writing is also writing.
When it's done, it's done.
After silently saying sorry, Jason began to think firmly.
"Then fax it over."
"Tell you, if you dare to use waste manuscripts to fill in, I will go directly to you and stare at you every day. Either you hang yourself at your desk, or I hang you at your door!"
Before hanging up the phone, the editor spoke harshly again, no, it could already be called dangerous.
Obviously, he should have a 'criminal record'.
"Don't worry, it won't happen."
Reassuring the other party, Jason hung up the phone and began to fax the manuscript.
During this period, two 'Spartan potions' were consumed directly.
Accident? die
Jason said that for him whose talent is on the line, these things don't exist.
[Swallowing the special potion 'Sparta', judging...]
[Judgment passed!]
[Strength, Agility +0.1]
…
[Swallowing the special potion 'Sparta', judging...]
[Judgment passed!]
[Strength +0.1]
…
The effect of the first potion is the same as the previous 'Spartan potion'.
And on the second branch, the agility buffs start to disappear.
"Have you reached the limit of the potion?"
Jason thought.
This was something that had been expected long ago, and it was not surprising at all.
Jason wondered if he was taking the fourth potion, would it still be effective.
Or…
Will super fighters from other paths have any effect on him
With this in mind, after Jason faxed all the manuscripts, he walked towards the ground.
Outside the safe house, John, Brian, and McCall had already been waiting here with the notification from Jason just now. When they saw Jason appearing, the three of them immediately greeted each other.
Moreover, all three of them had double swords in their hands.
The steel sword is the same as the silver sword.
It was made in the style of Livia's notes with modern craftsmanship.
Although Jason didn't give any instruction within a week, the preparation work did not fall behind, and, during this week, the three of John had already mastered the sword technique of 'Glory of Silver'.
This is not difficult for the trio at the peak of mortals.
The trouble is, the next thing—
"In Livia's notes, there are two parts recorded, sword skills and seals."
"In terms of swordsmanship, with your physical fitness, you have already started."
"Now? Let's talk about the seal."
As Jason said, a flame appeared in his hand.
call!
The flame danced, and the orange-red light dyed the afternoon with a layer of gorgeous color, and also made the eyes of John, Brian, and McCall brighter.
this,
It was the moment they had been waiting for.
Sorry, Fat Dragon is not in good health
I'm on bed rest again today, I'm sorry everyone, I'm sorry!
