"By the way, does Staff Officer Qi have an intelligence report to give you?" After discussing the issue of Bloodline Transformation, Li Guining beckoned Qi Jinhui to come in. Qi Jinhui handed an intelligence report to Lu Heng and explained, "This is intelligence gathered yesterday. There is a spy investigating a scythe and has found out that this scythe appeared at Quenching Castle before. I believe what he’s looking for is the Death God’s Deputy." Lu Heng showed interest upon hearing this and asked, "Where is this spy now?" "He’s already been secretly controlled, no information has leaked, we’re using a Spirit Controller." Qi Jinhui didn’t mention the Spirit Controller’s identity, as that person was an important figure in the Southern War Zone Intelligence Department. Spirit Controllers, a type of Superpower User, are too powerful when it comes to intelligence work. It’s said to have overturned previous methods of intelligence operations. As long as the spy is found, the Spirit Controller can extract all secrets from him. Lu Heng opened the dossier, skimmed through the intelligence documents, and asked, "Why is this person searching for the Blood Scythe?" Qi Jinhui shook his head and answered, "There’s no answer to that question because this person is only responsible for locating the scythe, and the task isn’t to take it, just find out whose hands it is in." He paused and then queried, "As far as I know, that scythe should be in your possession." Lu Heng didn’t respond to this statement. Regarding the Blood-colored Scythe, Death God’s Deputy, Lu Heng didn’t intentionally keep it a secret, nor could he hide it. Because the Death God’s Deputy class originally belonged to Ke Yiming. Ke Yiming was to be planted as a secret line within the Creator Organization; the Southern War Zone’s intelligence department needed to know all information about Ke Yiming to proceed with their work. Therefore, the intelligence department already had information on the Death God’s Deputy class and the Blood-colored Scythe. However, when Lu Heng was in the Elf World, he melted the scythe, which led to the forging of the SS-level Aurora Blade. This was only known to Lu Heng, Su Muyu, and Master Gulu, and no one else was informed. Therefore, according to the Southern War Zone’s intelligence department, the scythe should still be in Lu Heng’s possession. After all, an SS-level weapon wouldn’t be discarded so easily. Lu Heng then asked, "How did this spy know the Blood-colored Scythe appeared at Quenching Castle?" Qi Jinhui replied, "On page five, a month ago, someone saw Master Gulu researching a scythe." Lu Heng thought for a moment and then questioned, "Who sent this spy?" "This person was originally an economic spy, a habitual offender who steals intelligence for money. He only contacted a middleman and didn’t know the buyer behind it, but based on our analysis, we believe the behind-the-scenes buyer is likely the Berg Family." Qi Jinhui gave an answer that was not entirely certain. Lu Heng was not surprised upon hearing this answer. Because many characteristics of the Blood-colored Scythe perfectly align with the Bloodline Clan. In other words, this scythe is likely related to the Bloodline Clan. And in the Berg Family, there might be a Prince of Blood or someone serving a Prince of Blood. No matter the situation, the Berg Family is most likely to be probing the whereabouts of the Blood-colored Scythe. Lu Heng remembered another key point, before the Blood-colored Scythe was melted, the Death God’s Deputy class was with Ke Yiming. When Ke Yiming died, he no longer had the Death God’s Deputy. And he was already enslaved by the Prince of Blood at that time, unable to hide any secrets. In other words, he would tell the Prince of Blood when his Death God’s Deputy class disappeared. Now, the Berg Family is searching for the Blood-colored Scythe. It means they don’t know the Blood-colored Scythe has been melted. Combining this information, a conclusion can be drawn. The Prince of Blood in the Berg Family believes the Blood-colored Scythe is still intact; he’s searching for it, ultimately looking for the owner of the Death God’s Deputy class. If the Blood-colored Scythe is related to the Bloodline Clan, then the Bloodline Clan likely possesses the ability to control the Death God’s Deputy. In other words, as long as the Prince of Blood finds the owner of Death God’s Deputy, he can control this person and make them his servant. In this way, an information gap emerges. Lu Heng understood this logic, stood up immediately, and said, "I have some matters to attend to, I need to leave. Concerning the intelligence on this scythe, I hope the war zone can block the news. Do not let a fourth person know besides the three of us." Qi Jinhui couldn’t make the decision on this request, so he looked at Li Guining. Li Guining wasn’t sure what Lu Heng was planning, but he trusted Lu Heng completely. Besides, the request was merely to block intelligence, not a difficult matter. So he nodded in agreement: "Alright, this intelligence will be placed in the highest security level archives." "Alright then, I’ll be on my way." Lu Heng said as he prepared to leave. Li Guining hurriedly said, "You’re quite impatient; there’s one more thing I haven’t mentioned." ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet Lu Heng stopped and turned, asking, "What is it?" Li Guining said, "Do you remember the Superpower-guided Perceiver you met in the White Eagle Federation last time?" Lu Heng nodded, "I remember." Li Guining continued, "Our advisory committee analyzed the characteristics of this ability; its potential is very high, so we’ve selected a group of Perceivers in the military to train on the Superpower Guidance route." Lu Heng evaluated, "That’s a good thing, Superpower Guidance is definitely an ability well-suited for coordinating military operations, especially for the rocket forces." Li Guining continued, "The problem is, after testing the Superpower Guidance ability on the selected Perceivers, the effect is not very satisfactory." Superpower Guidance is indeed a high-potential ability, but this ability is not solved by one skill. Superpower Guidance firstly requires a Perceiver, and they need strong Perception Ability, especially a large perception range. A ten-kilometer perception range is just the starting distance, especially for coordinating with missiles and rockets, ten kilometers is not far at all. However, from the Perceiver’s perspective, a ten-kilometer perception range is a terribly high number. Take Su Muyu, for example, she is already one of the strongest Perceivers among humans, but even she can only achieve a three-kilometer perception range. Of course, using the Qingluan Divine Bird’s flying speed, this range can be extended. Additionally, Su Muyu is not on the Superpower Guidance route, hence she hasn’t pursued the limit in perception range. Perceiver’s various ability metrics need trade-offs; if the perception range increases, the perception intensity will relatively decrease. Superpower-guided Perceivers go for the large-range perception route and have lower demands on perception intensity. Moreover, Superpower Guidance requires Perceivers to connect with missile radar systems, and this connection method needs to be solved through a skill. Overall, achieving the Superpower Guidance effect requires at least three or four skills or class abilities to accomplish. Hence, cultivating a Superpower-guided Perceiver is not easy. Li Guining selected a group of Perceivers from the war zone for training in this aspect, but the training effect was not ideal, which led him to think of Lu Heng. "What are your plans, Chief?" Lu Heng directly asked his thoughts. Li Guining chuckled and said, "I want to send several Superpower-guided Perceivers to your special forces for some advanced training."
