Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm

Chapter 176: 158, Super Strong Memory Ability



Heard words like "Please remain calm."

The two intelligence agents, Han Chao and Ye Zefeng, demonstrated exceptional professionalism, immediately regaining their composed demeanor.

They didn't look around; instead, they chatted quietly like friends.

Han Chao watched his companion but spoke unrelated words: "Lady Que San, where are you now?"

Earlier, Que San's voice seemed to ring from behind his head, like it came from beside his ear, making it impossible to determine the direction.

This bizarre phenomenon sent a shiver down his spine.

A melodious female voice quickly sounded, "Please return to the small alley where you were earlier, I will meet with you there."

The two exchanged a habitual glance before softly chatting as they returned to the alley.

However.

The narrow alley was empty.

Han Chao looked around a few times, tentatively asking, "Lady Que San, where are you?"

Just as the words finished.

On a pile of debris nearby.

A blue-and-white magpie suddenly jumped slightly.

"Hello to you both!"

It spoke politely with a tone imbued with humor; each word was articulated clearly in Great Xia Language.

This was clearly Lady Que San.

The two intelligence agents were taken aback.

Because the magpie had been there all along, yet they had completely ignored its presence.

It was only when the magpie spoke that they noticed the magpie atop the pile of debris.

At this moment.

The two intelligence agents realized that this must be a very formidable Mutant Bird.

Han Chao's heart started to pound, promptly responding, "Lady Que San, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Ye Zefeng swallowed hard, following up with, "Hello!"

Que San quickly said, "My master, Mr. Spirit Crows, endowed me with an extraordinary memory ability.

"I can memorize every word and punctuation mark of a 100,000-word novel in one minute.

"My master believes this ability is perfectly suited for intelligence work, which is why I am here."

Han Chao couldn't help but praise, "That's amazing!"

Ye Zefeng nodded along, "Indeed!"

He glanced at the pile of debris, understanding that Lady Que San was very modest; her ability was undoubtedly more than just an outstanding memory.

This duo's personality was quite amusing, somewhat like the performers in a comic dialogue.

Que San did not waste words and went straight to the point, "You both must have noticed, quite a few spies have infiltrated Novari Port?"

Han Chao nodded, "Yes."

Ye Zefeng was just about to say, "We've been wandering here for a few hours, seeing five or six fellows who look very much like our peers."

But he reacted half a beat slower, failing to articulate it.

Que San preemptively said, "Based on my observation, it seems there are no less than three hundred spies, certainly at least two hundred."

Han Chao was shocked, "That many?"

Ye Zefeng expressed his inner shock with a face-wide eye-opening expression.

Han Chao was puzzled, "Besides that bunch of white skins, other countries shouldn't have the time to send spies to Shapudian.

"I focused on observing the white faces in Novari Port, and it seems there aren't that many spies."

Que San didn't directly refute but hinted, "Mr. Han, it's the Superpower Era now."

Han Chao immediately realized, "You mean the spies used Superpowers to disguise their true identities?"

Ye Zefeng asked in a supporting style, "Can Superpowers alter physical appearance features too?"

Que San elegantly nodded her bird head, "Certainly!"

It promptly continued, "Mr. Ye, please extend your hand."

This was evidently intended for a demonstration.

Ye Zefeng cooperatively extended his right hand.

Que San swiftly pecked it with her beak.

In the next moment.

The skin on Ye Zefeng's small forearm instantly turned dark, resembling a dark-skinned person's.

No.

It was exactly like a dark-skinned person's.

The two intelligence agents were immediately stunned.

This close-up Superpower demonstration was more astonishing than those seen in videos.

Que San added, "This kind of Superpower technique doesn't worry about exposure during bathing; it can last for a week without difficulty."

Ye Zefeng directly verified it through action.

He vigorously rubbed the skin; the black color showed no sign of fading.

Ye Zefeng clicked his tongue, "Truly eye-opening."

Han Chao realized, "I see! The many natives we encountered may actually be white skins disguised as natives."

Que San stated somewhat meaningfully, "In the Superpower Era, the model of intelligence work will undergo earth-shattering changes."

Han Chao thoughtfully nodded, "Indeed."

It wasn't the first time he heard this; it was repeatedly mentioned within the intelligence system.

But the events before his eyes made him firsthand experience what "earth-shattering changes" meant.

Ye Zefeng humbly sought guidance, "Lady Que San, do you have a plan?"

Que San said, "First find the hiding Carmenia and Southern Cross spies in the port, then create a conflict where one gang devours another, directly eliminating these sneaky fellows."

Ye Zefeng was momentarily stunned.

Earlier, this Spirit Bird gave him a gentlemanly impression; he really didn't expect it to propose such a ruthless plan.

Han Chao uttered an "Uh," "I need to contact the higher-ups."

Soon.

The instructions from above came down, "Follow Que San's plan; this time, you must heavily strike Carmenia and Southern Cross people.

"The action department's personnel are rushing over urgently, everyone follow Lady Que San's command!"

Han Chao responded, "Yes!"

He sneaked a glance at Lady Que San and suddenly realized that this Spirit Bird's energy seemed quite immense.

With the usual style of Great Xia's intelligence agency, they generally wouldn't resort to such violent methods lightly.

Yet after Lady Que San proposed the plan, the higher-ups agreed without hesitation.

*

Ten minutes later.

The two intelligence officers finally witnessed what is meant by "superior memory ability."

"Stop!"

Lady Que San called out.

The video being played on the tablet immediately halted.

A plain indigenous face appeared at the center of the screen.

If such a person stood amongst a crowd, no one would take a second look.

The two intelligence officers were equipped with mini high-definition cameras, capturing every face they encountered.

Lady Que San stared at the screen and said, "This guy has a slightly inconspicuous mole on his right cheek, which reminds me of a spy from the Southern Cross Alliance."

Han Chao looked again and again, and indeed couldn't see the resemblance.

Ye Zefeng immediately started typing away furiously, entering the Great Xia intelligence department's database.

Lady Que San craned her bird head to glance at the laptop, tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, "In the Southern Cross's Zelot Kingdom, there should be a guy with the code name Black Wood."

Ye Zefeng quickly found the target: "There indeed is such a person; Great Xia only knows his code name, not his real name."

Han Chao said, "Enlarge the face image of Black Wood."

Ye Zefeng complied.

A blank-expression Caucasian face was magnified several times.

Due to insufficient pixels, it didn't appear very clear.

Han Chao took a serious look: "Black Wood's right cheek does seem to have a mole."

But he felt that relying solely on such ambiguous information to conclude it's Black Wood seemed a bit too presumptuous.

Lady Que San issued a series of commands: "Change skin color to white, extend the distance between eyebrows by five millimeters, shorten the chin by three millimeters, make the nose slightly larger."

Ye Ze quickly processed the image, and a Caucasian face appeared.

Han Chao gasped: "It's so similar!"

Ye Zefeng was equally astonished: "This surely is Black Wood."

Han Chao looked at Lady Que San and truly felt impressed.

Just a minor insignificant trait was able to identify a foreign intelligence agent; such a skill is truly remarkable.

Ye Zefeng looked in admiration: "Lady Que San, in our Great Xia, you must be one of the most formidable Spirit Birds, right?!"

Lady Que San shook her head, "No, the master has sixteen Spirit Beasts under him, and I'm only among the weakest ones."

Ye Zefeng was a bit speechless.

This Magpie is already so powerful, yet among the weakest? How formidable must your master, Mr. Spirit Crows, be?

It's truly unimaginable!

Lady Que San continued, "Once we find five more targets, we should be able to pinpoint their base according to their activity range."

This port city has quite a few cameras, and Great Xia has sufficient authority to access the relevant data.

Fifteen minutes later.

Ye Zefeng said excitedly, "We've found their base! It's actually next to the detective bureau; they really have some nerve."

Han Chao grinned viciously, "Let's finish them off!"

*

An hour later.

"Boom!"

Only heard a loud noise.

A five-story building collapsed abruptly, with thick dust rapidly spreading.

Several pre-set loudspeakers emitted a loud sound.

"A Jia, you robbed our Black Sand, today you must die!"

To those unaware, this undoubtedly seems like a gang warfare.

With the current chaos in the port, various forces are showing their prowess, and no one would find it odd.

After all, gunfire has been frequent lately; this time the scale was particularly grand.

"Da! Da!"

"Bang! Bang!"

Amidst the dense gunfire, occasional explosions sounded.

Several indigenous-looking guys, fortunately not blown up, yet died in the ambush.

Han Chao holding a petite binocular with one hand, looked at the chaotic ruins, and excitedly pumped his fist.

Ye Zefeng exclaimed directly: "Damn satisfying!"

Great Xia People might appear restrained on the surface, but inherently prefer such violent methods.

At this moment.

Han Chao suddenly exclaimed, "What the hell is that thing?"

Through the binoculars, he clearly saw a creature rushing out from the ruins.

The creature appeared humanoid but looked anything but human.

It was wearing jeans, completely bare-chested, with its skin surface covered in patches of black scales.

This thing's shoulders carried two massive black tumors each.

Its face was utterly distorted, eye sockets devoid of eyeballs, only writhing tumors.

Such a scene seemed like a horror film, vividly playing out in reality.

At this moment.

A thought flashed through Han Chao's mind: "Lady Que San suddenly appeared, she must be after this thing!"

Their stealth mission was against the enemy's spies.

Lady Que San's covert operation was to hunt down the monster created by the enemy.
