Ye Kai, who boarded the e-419 Pelican troop carrier at 1512 hours on July 20, 2552, looked curiously at the black-haired Asian female officer with a delicate face in front of him.

"I am Lieutenant Hiyoshi Kazuko, the adjutant of Captain Keyes. Captain Keyes sent me to take you to the Third Area Security Research Institute. Colonel Keyes and Dr. Halsey are waiting for you there." Lieutenant Hiyoshi Kazuko said in a rigid manner.

After announcing the destination of his trip to Ye Kai in an inorganic tone, he shut his mouth tightly and began to browse the information on the tablet in his hand.

Ye Kai, who wanted to say hello, touched his chin awkwardly.

"This is the Hammer, Master Chief, welcome aboard, we will take off immediately." The female pilot of E-419 greeted Ye Kai in a cheerful voice. Ye Kai was warmed and cold by this.

The treatment made him feel a little stupid, and he didn't know how to react, so he had to walk to sit opposite the lieutenant.

The Pelican troop carrier quickly sent Ye Kai and Lieutenant Hiyoshi Kazuko to a military restricted area composed of gray high-rise buildings and a white dome test site. Colonel Keyes was waiting on the tarmac in black casual clothes. Lieutenant Riyoshi Kazuko walked off first.

Spaceship, "mission accomplished". Lieutenant Hiyoshi Kazuko stood at attention and saluted Colonel Keyes. Ye Kai followed Lieutenant Riyoshi Kazuko and stepped off the spacecraft.

"Spartan 117 is here to report," Ye Kai also saluted Colonel Keyes.

"Relax Lieutenant, I'm off duty." Colonel Case greeted Lieutenant Hiyoshi Kazuko with a smile. "You are recovering well, Master Chief." Colonel Case turned to greet Ye Kai.

"If you have no other duties, sir, please allow me to take my leave first. The preparations for the Pillar of Autumn have just begun." Lieutenant Hiyoshi Kazuko ignored Colonel Keyes's relaxing remarks and continued to ask for instructions in a serious tone.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, you can leave." Colonel Keyes reluctantly released Lieutenant Hiyoshi Kazuko. The lieutenant saluted again and quickly boarded the Hammer of the Enemy and left.

"Come, Dr. Halsey is waiting for you in her office." Colonel Keys, who was seeing off Lieutenant Hiyoshi Kazuko, turned to Ye Kai who was waiting aside and said.

After being scanned twice and asked to change all their clothes, Colonel Keyes and Ye Kai finally entered the Omega wing of the Third Area Security Research Institute where Dr. Halsey's office is located 20 minutes later.

The doctor is still the same as in the memory, with gray hair neatly combed back, and delicate facial features with a hint of fatigue, but it cannot hide the naughty look between the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, making it difficult for people who see her for the first time to think of her.

Real age. "Long time no see, Spartan 117." Dr. Halsey said hello while adjusting the original holographic model of a certain mechanical device on the desk. Deya, dressed in ancient Greek clothing, was recording something.

"Hello, Dr. Halsey." Ye Kai solemnly gave a military salute.

"Keith, you take care of yourself. The lounge is on the third floor." Ye Kai watched with cold sweat on his face as Dr. Halsey casually dismissed Colonel Case, who had spent 20 minutes sending him here. "You said you came from there.

I read some information about the Forerunners on a piece of black rock." Dr. Halsey looked at Ye Kai with interest. "It's because of this that you got shot stupidly." The doctor's voice was full of ridicule.

Ye Kai's body involuntarily tensed up under the doctor's gaze. Intuition or John's painful past experience told him that it was best not to continue this topic, "That rock recorded a special system called Special Zone 04 by the forerunners.

There seems to be some interstellar coordinates." Ye Kai decided to go directly to the topic to attract the doctor's attention.

"Part of the interstellar coordinates?" The doctor's attention was instantly diverted, "Are you now able to read the knowledge that was instilled during the transformation?"

"It's difficult to read, but specific information can be revealed by seeing the corresponding items." Ye Kai felt relieved...

"Really..." Dr. Halsey casually called up the holographic image of the black rock on her desk, "Come here and try to see if you can decipher all the information on it."

Ye Kai stepped forward and stared at the holographic image of the black rock, but no message response was triggered. "The holographic image seems to be unresponsive. Maybe it needs the original object to trigger it." Ye Kai scratched his head helplessly.

"It seems that there is more than just visual information preservation." Dr. Halsey muttered to herself and then immediately issued an order, "Deya, inform the Military Intelligence Analysis Section to immediately place Spartan 117 on Octaneus.

The rock specimens seized from the Côte d'Azur City, the fourth planet in the δ galaxy, were sent back." Deya's body flashed with green light, which was reflected in her communication. Soon Deya received a reply, "Dr. Andro from the Analysis Class

They said that their analysis has not been completed yet and the rock specimens will not be sent back until tomorrow at the earliest.”

"Tell Andro that if his analysis can't tell us what is recorded on the black rock, don't waste the limited resources of the Military Intelligence Agency and the tax dollars of innocent citizens." Dr. Halsey said disdainfully.

"Are you going to send it like this?" Deya carefully confirmed again.

"Don't change a word." Dr. Halsey confirmed without hesitation and then stared at Ye Kai, "You can definitely decipher the information recorded on the black rock? You won't let me be as imbecile as Andro.

It’s embarrassing in front of you, right?”

Faced with Dr. Halsey's threatening eyes and tone, Ye Kai almost subconsciously began to nod quickly. At this time, Deya received a reply, "Dr. Andro said that he is waiting to see your wonderful analysis. The rock specimen has been

Transferred back to the laboratory, eta time 1607 hours.

"It will take a while." Dr. Halsey's expression suddenly became serious, "Spartan 117, you are here just in time. Your new armor has reached the final testing stage, but there is a new technology that still needs a volunteer tester."

"Spartan 117 volunteered to complete the test." Before Ye Kai could react, his mouth had subconsciously spoken words of agreement.

"Very good." Dr. Halsey stood up and walked to the small elevator on the right side of the office and motioned for Ye Kai to follow her. The high-speed elevator quickly took the doctor and Ye Kai to a huge laboratory, where various parts of the Thor armor were stored.

Fixed among dozens of constantly running instruments. Dr. Halsey walked to an operating area equipped with shadowless lights, reached out and patted the white operating table to signal Ye Kai to lie down on the table. A very unpleasant feeling made Ye Kai

Kai had many thoughts of running away, but in the end he lay down on the operating table obediently.

"I have invented a new mental connection technology that allows you to directly use your mind to communicate with AI. Now I will implant you with this new mental sensing chip that uses new technology. It will upgrade your neural sensing signal system.

." Ye Kai felt a stabbing pain in his neck.

"It hurts. I'm sorry. The good news is that I've run out of anesthesia. You who are brave enough to pick up the Covenant's ion cannon must be able to endure this slight pain easily." She was indeed angry about the mission in Côte d'Azur City.

, Ye Kai was highly focused and quickly analyzed the doctor's emotional changes under the stimulation of pain.

"But this is just the beginning. The bad news is that my medical consultant said that without anesthesia, this chip will make people feel worse than death when it is activated and upgraded!" Dr. Halsey said in a light tone,

A severe stinging sensation accompanied by severe nerve burning spread throughout his body. Ye Kai, who boasted of having a strong talent for resisting pain, fainted as soon as his vision went dark.

When Ye Kai woke up, he found himself lying on the sofa in Dr. Halsey's office. The wound on his neck was still tingling. Stimulated by the familiar heat, Ye Kai regained his ability to move. He gently used force to change his position.

After sitting on the sofa, he saw Dr. Halsey sitting on the sofa opposite, looking at him playfully, gently throwing the black rock he brought back from the Côte d'Azur in his hand, "I woke up very quickly.

Well!"….

"Did the experiment succeed?" Not daring to discuss his recovery ability with the doctor, Ye Kai hurriedly changed the topic to the experiment that had just made him miserable.

"Deya, prepare to connect." As if thinking that Ye Kai had learned a lesson, Dr. Halsey easily let go of the nervous Ye Kai. Then Ye Kai felt a cold wave pass through him.

There was a slight pain in his mind. Ye Kai could feel his thoughts connected with another consciousness.

"You're a little nervous." Deya's voice seemed to come directly from Ye Kai's mind.

"Connection successful." This time Deja's voice came from the direction of Dr. Halsey's desk.

Dr. Halsey handed the black rock into Ye Kai's hand, "Try to read the information on the rock and try to keep your emotions stable. Deya will read the information you read simultaneously."

"Okay," Ye Kai once again held the black rock in his hand. Almost as soon as he focused his eyes on the peculiar texture on the rock surface, a huge flow of information began to pass through his consciousness. Ye Kai could understand

There are just a few simple file headers such as Civilization Road Monument, Special Zone 04 Record, Weapons, Research, Response Plans, etc. All that is left is a data packet recorded in a way that he cannot understand, although Ye Kai cannot understand the contents of the data packet.

, but the Forerunner civilization inheritance in his mind seemed to tell him that it was the specific coordinates of Special Zone 04.

"The data was read successfully. According to the consciousness feedback analysis of Spartan 117, the Forerunners called this rock that records information a civilization monument. This monument records a weapons research system called Special Zone 04 by the Forerunners and the instructions for going there.

The specific coordinates, but because they are different from our human habit of writing coordinates for interstellar jumps, the specific coordinates need further analysis." Deya reported to Dr. Halsey while doing data analysis gleamingly.

"Contact General Roland Fremont of the United Nations Space Command, contact Military Intelligence, we have caught a big fish." Dr. Halsey said excitedly. "We are going to start formulating a new plan to deal with the Covenant people right away. As for you

." Dr. Halsey turned to Ye Kai, who was still a little dazed by the huge data flow, and said: "I'll give you a new task. There are a large number of relics of the Forerunner civilization that have been excavated over the years. You have to cooperate with Deya to deal with those ruins.

The wreckage will be analyzed and data recorded to see if there are any such civilization monuments inside."

"Yes, ma'am." This was punishment. She had not calmed down yet. This was Ye Kai's first reaction after hearing a large number of adjectives representing huge numbers. Then Ye Kai finally began to doubt that he had found Dr. Halsey to try to change the future.

Whether the plan was a mistake or not, regardless of whether it changes in the future, when Ye Kai saw that the Third District Security Research Institute could only count the remains of the Forerunner civilization in tons, he felt that his recent period must be bleak.
