Wasteland Border Inspector - Chapter 755

Chapter 755: Chapter 251: Fire Researcher, Yu Yong’s Threat!_2

Cheng Ye’s eyelids twitched as he pursued the previous conversation: “Is he a researcher from Firewood Shelter City?”

“That’s correct.” Yu Erlan nodded, “His condition is somewhat similar to yours. Both are rare entities who retain independent thought after symbiosis with the Mother Source. However, the difference is that the Mother Source within you was catalyzed by an external force for evolution, inherently a benign infection source. On the other hand, he completely endured the impact of a malignant Extraordinary Mother Source to become the way he is now.”

As she spoke, she lightly tapped her Defense Communication device.

The next second, Cheng Ye’s Defense Communication at his waist started vibrating; he took out the device to look, and the screen displayed a brief intelligence report on C35:

[Infected Body: Yu Yong (Extraordinary Mother Source)]

[Code Name]: C35 (Source: Firewood Shelter City)

[Current Status]: Person on Firewood Red Wanted List

[Experience]: Firewood Level-4 Researcher, Main Research: Source Introduction Technology, Source Rail Technology

[Symbiotic Infection Source]: Ghost Shadow Spider

[Infection Method]: Can parasitically infect via biological shadows; once a shadow is occupied by it, the host will gradually lose independent consciousness, becoming a puppet under its control, acting according to predetermined instructions; maximum control number: 250,000 people

[Containment Method]: Eliminate all clones (infected body) beyond the Ghost Shadow Spider’s main body

[Extinction Conditions]: Simultaneously erase all clones and the main body

…

“Is that all?”

Cheng Ye pointed at the experience section on the screen, frowning deeply.

This intelligence report is too brief, only marking the identity of a Level-4 researcher and research direction, with no key information about Yu Yong’s life experiences, family and relatives, residence, character traits, etc.!

And these are exactly the core breakthroughs in interrogation. Without this information, must we rely solely on coercion during interrogation?

But the Yu Yong before us is a symbiote with an Anti-state Extraordinary Mother Source; can ordinary punishment work on him?

“Firewood Shelter City has extremely strict control over researcher information, especially at the level of a Level-4 researcher. We can’t obtain detailed content, only roughly these kinds of information.”

Yu Erlan explained, “Moreover, he is himself a runaway from Firewood. When Firewood sends someone to complete the exchange, we must hand him over. So in principle, we don’t have full interrogation rights, but Firewood doesn’t restrict us from conducting some inquiries now, as a reward for capturing him.”

So that’s how it is.

Cheng Ye instantly understood, equating it to assisting in capturing a case; temporarily unable to transfer the caught criminal, conducting inquiries while they are with us to obtain partial information sounds reasonable enough.

“So our current goal is to obtain the Source Rail and Source Introduction Technology information he possesses?” Cheng Ye thought aloud, a barely visible gleam flashing in his eyes.

The opportunity to closely interact with the Extraordinary Mother Source with the research institute’s assistance doesn’t come often.

Such existences, each one could be a “city-destroying” level threat.

And Yu Yong, clearly is of the most malignant kind; if his abilities unfurl, he could effortlessly destroy a Shelter City, like C35 Satellite City was a perfect example.

However, comparatively, the broader the attack scope for an infection source, the weaker its capability on single-pollution.

Since the research institute already has the intelligence on the Ghost Shadow Spider, perhaps they might allow him close contact and possibly gain some… features?

“Dream on! No one in this world has the right to judge me!”

Yu Yong suddenly sneered sinisterly, his tone filled with sleaze and provocation, “Want the technology? You have to trade for it! Yu Erlan, just accompany me for one night, and I’ll tell you one B-level Source Rail Technology. How about it? Quite a good deal, right?”

“This is currently the situation.” Yu Erlan seemed not to hear his foul language, her expression remained calm, “We’ve tried all means we’ve had over this period. He’s actually a pushover, but the malign Ghost Shadow Spider infection source continually restrains him, preventing him from revealing any key information.”

The moment “pushover” was spoken, Yu Yong’s face instantly changed, abruptly about to retort with a yell.

But before he could react, Cheng Ye curiously interrupted him: “Then can we go in? To have a face-to-face conversation?”

“Theoretically feasible.”

Yu Erlan nodded, “The terrifying aspect of infection sources lies in the unknown, but in dealing with infection sources of known traits, even if the Ghost Shadow Spider has reached Anti-state, the risk remains controllable. Its infection method is shadow parasitism; as long as you wear special gear to eliminate your shadow, face-to-face contact won’t cause infection. It’s just…”

“Then let me go in and have a chat with him.”

Cheng Ye interrupted her again, a smile finally flashed across his face that had been constantly surprised since entering the Extraordinary Mother Source Containment Room.

Great, finally encountered a professional fitting scene.

Thinking carefully, how long has Inspector Cheng been away from interrogation scenarios, dealing with “infected bodies”?

The last time had to be traced back to Mu Shuang, prying out a ‘Hundred Martial Students’, definitely helped a lot.

Facing a symbiote with an Anti-state level Mother Source now, there could possibly be more valuable traits and intelligence to dig out?

Just thinking about it made him somewhat unable to suppress his excitement.

“Alright, I’ll have someone get the protective gear. Do you need me to accompany you inside?”

“No need.”

Cheng Ye shook his head, squatted slightly to face Yu Yong in the containment room, “I have my ways, let me try first.”
