Faced with the choice between Claire and Yu Qingxue's immediate safety and his own future situation, Yu Zhesen finally chose the former.
He unreservedly shared everything he knew with Mercer in the virtual space, and the amount of information was basically equal to what Yu Qingxue obtained when he used mind reading on him.
As a cybernetic who has undergone the transformation of a sophisticated electronic brain, Messer's ability to process information is much more efficient than Yu Qingxue's.
Almost as soon as Yu Zhesen finished sharing, he immediately grasped the key points and did not show much surprise at these counter-intuitive things.
"Thank you for your honesty and cooperation." Messer nodded to Yu Zhesen, and then ended the connection in the virtual space.
Both of them returned to reality. Mercer was already standing outside the door of the confinement room, his face wearing an eye mask facing Yu Zhesen, as if waiting for him to come out of the room.
Yu Zhesen asked hesitantly: "Can I leave the confinement room now?"
"If you don't leave the solitary room, who will be responsible for rescuing Claire Hathaway and Yu Qingxue?" Mercer asked in a matter-of-fact tone.
Yu Zhesen's heart moved, and he strode out of the door of the solitary room. The guarding officer on the side maintained a meticulous posture and bowed his head slightly to greet Moses.
"Although you are the person sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to investigate me, I am not sure whether you have the authority to let me carry out the rescue mission now." Yu Zhesen said cautiously.
"If I didn't have this authority, would you just stand by and watch this happen?"
"Won't."
Moses shrugged: "Isn't that okay? Since you have already realized this, why do you need to think about these things behind your life?"
"Isn't that how things are used after death?"
"Just take it literally." Moses laughed, "Now let's find a way to travel through the void."
"Do you know how to travel through the void?" Yu Zhesen was already having a headache about this matter.
Although judging from the previous experience of escaping from that research institute, Jin Guozheng's superpower is not the only way to go to that world. The "void" used as a connection can be created by artificial simulation.
It's just that last time they succeeded in opening the artificial void storm with the help of the equipment in Tang Suguang Research Institute. That level of technology may not be achievable in the world here.
Messer motioned for Yu Zhesen to follow him, and under his guidance, the two of them sailed smoothly on the cruiser Jin Ge.
Soon, they arrived at the command room on the bridge and met An Zhitian here.
"Old An..." Yu Zhesen was stunned.
He didn't expect An Zhitian to be on this warship. It seemed that after Vice Admiral Morris died unexpectedly, An Zhitian temporarily took charge.
"It's an honor to meet you, Director An." Messer put his left hand on his chest and bowed slightly to An Zhitian.
An Zhitian nodded and turned his gaze to Yu Zhesen: "The plan failed to keep up with the changes. I should have kept you in confinement for a few more days."
Yu Zhesen didn't know what expression to use to face these words, he pursed his lips and stood straight.
He thought this was a very serious occasion. An Zhitian in front of him was his boss first, and his adoptive father second.
And now, it is time to take orders in the critical moment.
Therefore, Yu Zhesen did not answer the call casually as he usually did at home, but quietly waited for An Zhitian to issue the mission order.
"Have you thought about anything seriously during these two days when you were alone in the solitary room?" An Zhitian's words surprised Yu Zhesen.
These words revealed an elderly father's concern for his children, which immediately broke his previous perception of "serious occasions".
"No..." Yu Zhesen shook his head honestly.
He really didn't think about anything profound during the two days he was imprisoned.
If the vivid time mind in the past was still there, it might have guided him to think diligently, but now when he is free and bored, he can only do some exercises to kill time.
Messer interjected from the side: "Have you never considered finding a way to replenish energy for your secret weapon?"
Yu Zhesen was stunned for a moment, and quickly realized that he was referring to the Platinum Age exoskeleton armor that had fallen into a state of energy exhaustion.
He had few secrets from Moses due to previous information sharing.
Then of course Mercer also knew that it was not that he did not want to replenish energy for the armor, but that he had no clue about it.
"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't, right?" Mercer touched his white eyepatch, "Investigating the situation of the Platinum Age armor is the main purpose of my trip. I will truthfully report your situation to you later.
"
An Zhitian said: "Since the armor has exhausted its energy and cannot be used, there is no need for special measures to be imposed on Asen, right?"
"Of course." Mercer replied very readily. "Although the Administration believes that the existence of the Platinum Age was a mistake, since the service life of the armor itself has been exhausted, it does not pose a threat."
"What's more, Commissioner Yu Zhesen's previous actions were based on maintaining the order of Iron Dome. As for some minor errors in details, why bother to delve into them?"
Mercer opened his hands and said: "If you can travel through the void this time to confirm that the research institute has been destroyed, bring the absconding criminals to justice, and rescue the kidnapped Commander Hathaway and the City Hall's think tank, Ms. Yu, your merits will be great
Even comparable to your parents."
"These are three tasks." Yu Zhesen felt the pressure.
"It's three goals for a mission." Mercer corrected, "It's difficult for ordinary people, but it's just like that for you, right?"
"Where does your confidence in me come from?" Yu Zhesen was puzzled.
Messe glanced at An Zhitian meaningfully.
Yu Zhesen frowned slightly: "Because I am the adopted son of Director An?"
"Because he is Tang Suguang's student." An Zhitian took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.
When Yu Zhesen was surprised by this, Messer added: "As the teacher's assistant, I participated in the superpower gene improvement project led by him. Ms. Chen Huaixia, an elite member of the Xingzhou City Security Bureau, volunteered to assist in this research at that time.
One of them."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "My mother was... a volunteer at the time?"
"At that time, this project received the full support of the administration, and the first batch of volunteers were all outstanding people selected from the Security Bureau or the National Defense Forces."
Yu Zhesen felt his scalp numb: "What is the purpose of this engineering project? To improve the superpower gene? Is it to solve the special diseases that occur with the widespread spread of superpower genes?"
"This was the teacher's original intention, and it was also the way to publicize it to the outside world." Mercer turned his back, "But later the administration put forward higher requirements, which in layman's terms is to create gods."
Yu Zhesen felt a nameless fear. For some reason, when he heard the word "creating gods", he imagined a scene of strange powers and chaos in his mind.
The fusion gene monster that was defeated two days ago also flashed through many thoughts.
Mercer turned around and suddenly said in a somewhat nonchalant tone: "By the way, I fell in love while assisting the teacher in observing the volunteers, and I became hopelessly obsessed with Miss Huaixia."
Yu Zhesen looked confused: "???"
"But it's a pity that if this relationship is discovered by my teacher, I will definitely be expelled and kicked out of the team." Mercer smiled bitterly, "Between pursuing a future and pursuing love, I chose the future. This is what I have been comparing for the rest of my life.
Something to regret.”
Yu Zhesen, who felt uncomfortable in his heart, attacked him with words: "Save it, even if you chose to pursue love at that time, my mother probably wouldn't choose you. You should know my dad, right?"
Moses answered without anger: "Yu Yashu, my junior brother, of course I know."
Yu Zhesen tilted his head and once again showed a dazed expression as if he could not understand what Moses said.
"Don't you know that Yu Yashu worked with my teacher for two years before going to the Security Bureau?" Messe turned to An Zhitian, as if wondering why An Zhitian didn't tell Yu Zhesen this.
But he soon understood it himself, and sighed in frustration: "Yes, the Administration has done its best to eliminate traces of the teacher's existence. You were still young in the past, and Director General Security certainly wouldn't mention this to you.
