Chapter 248: Privilege Escalation



Chapter 248 Authority Enhancement

"Me?"

Chen Fan stared blankly at Song Ziliang with thick eyebrows and big eyes in the holographic interface. He couldn't help but began to doubt his ears and eyes: "The strength of the broadcasting civilization should be stronger than the Human Alliance, right?"

Song Ziliang nodded calmly, then shook his head.

"You can't say that. Although the other party has mastered some unknown weapons and attack methods, it doesn't mean that the other party's technological level is higher than that of the Human Alliance."

"It's like... the same gunpowder can be used to make fireworks and firecrackers, and it can also be used to make guns and cannons. It's the same principle."

Chen Fan nodded thoughtfully, and then suddenly realized: "Is there any difference?"

"Don't you mean that the other party's strength is at the same level as the Human Alliance?"

Song Ziliang, who was exposed, smiled and nodded: "In theory..."

"Whether in theory or in practice."

"You let me, a novice investigator who has just been in office for more than half a year, investigate a ninth-level civilization?"

Chen Fan interrupted Song Ziliang's words: "Do you think this makes sense?"

Congratulations, you have passed the novice tutorial, now go and solve the world boss!

"Cough!"

Song Ziliang, who knew that he was in the wrong, coughed awkwardly.

"There's nothing we can do about it."

"Think about it carefully. So far, besides you, who else can be safe and sound under that inexplicable resonance?"

"And..."

Song Ziliang looked at Chen Fan with a strange look in his eyes: "Didn't you notice that every time a broadcast civilization appears, it has something to do with you?"

Chen Fan: "..."

What are you talking about! What are you talking about!

Do you really think he is some kind of elementary school student who is the god of death? Wherever he goes, people die, right

? Chen Fan denied angrily: "Coincidence! This is a coincidence, okay?!"

Song Ziliang nodded happily: "I know it's a coincidence. This is not just a casual remark. Is there any need to be so excited?"

He spread his hands: "In short, those who are capable should do more work."

"For this investigation task, it seems that you should be the most suitable candidate at the moment."

As if he felt that it was not convincing enough, Song Ziliang added again: "No one else."

Chen Fan's expression stagnated: "I, this..."

He felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what it was.

He still had a very clear understanding of himself.

Although he was lucky enough to solve an artificial intelligence problem, which can be regarded as the highest level of dangerous technology, in fact, [Source] can only be regarded as a defective semi-finished product at best.

If he really confronts those powerful civilizations, he probably won't know how he died.

No, I can't go on like this. I have to find a way to control the situation... At least I have to make some money, right? !

Thinking of this, Chen Fan's face fell, and he waved his hands repeatedly to refuse: "No, no, no, I can't do this task."

"Please, that's a ninth-level civilization, not some random person!"

Chen Fan became excited: "In the entire Administration, has any investigator taken on such a task?"

"Besides, if I remember correctly, investigators should have the right to refuse investigation tasks, right?"

Just as Chen Fan was about to think of some more powerful words, Director Moore's steady voice finally came from the side.

"Don't worry."

"This is the first time that the Administration has encountered a mission of this level, but they will definitely not let you fight alone."

"It just so happens that the star gate has been successfully operated. I will send some investigators to assist you in a while."

"From now on, I will upgrade your investigator authority to a Level II official investigator."

"In addition, the Administration will send a few more fleets to the vicinity of the EL13697101 cosmic bubble as soon as possible to wait for orders." Moore's expression was particularly serious. "Believe me, the Administration will do everything possible to ensure your safety."

Chen Fan's tense face relaxed a little.

Compared with what Song Ziliang said, what Director Moore said sounded like human words.

No wonder he can become the director, while Song Ziliang can only be a small academician (internship).

Thinking of this, Chen Fan glanced at Song Ziliang calmly.

Song Ziliang: "???"

...

Moore gave Chen Fan two reassurance pills and left in a hurry.

I heard that a big guy from the Academy of Sciences came to see him.

It's normal.

The attack on the research ship, the death of an academician, and the broadcast of civilization, any one of these three things would probably alarm the bigwigs of the Academy of Sciences, let alone these three things together.

"I guess the Academy of Sciences is in an uproar now?"

After Moore left, Chen Fan's expression gradually returned to calm.

He squatted down and calmly collected the rotten meat in the cockpit of the research ship. Without raising his head, he said to Song Ziliang in the communication screen in front of him: "Academician Song, you are an academician after all, don't you need to go there?"

Song Ziliang was amused by Chen Fan's calm performance: "I said you are quite calm, you still have the mind to worry about my things here?"

"What, those excited reactions just now were all fake?"

He just said that casually, but he didn't expect Chen Fan to nod seriously.

"It's not all fake."

"The crying child gets the milk. Look, I got some support, right?"

Looking at Chen Fan who looked honest, Song Ziliang suddenly felt his eyes twitch.

"By the way, there is one more thing I need to report to you."

Chen Fan suddenly remembered something.

While putting the rotten meat in his hand into the biological tissue preservation device, he said to Song Ziliang in front of him: "On the way to search for the research ship, I encountered a very interesting planet."

"Planet?"

Song Ziliang's eyes revealed a bit of confusion: "There are many such things in the universe, what's so strange about it..."

"That planet is alive." Chen Fan interrupted Song Ziliang's words cheerfully, "It is a planetary silicon-based life form."

"Wait, wait..."

Song Ziliang frowned: "Let me sort it out first."

"I know about silicon-based life, and I know about planets, but this planetary silicon-based life... What is it?"

Chen Fan did not explain more, but reached out and sent a survey record to Song Ziliang: "Here, take a look for yourself."

After receiving the file, Song Ziliang glanced at Chen Fan with a suspicious look, and then clicked on the document to check it carefully.

While reading the investigation report, Song Ziliang's expression quickly changed from suspicion to confusion, and then from confusion to shock.

The main attraction is the inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of Sichuan Opera face-changing.

"Hiss..."

He took a breath of cold air: "Your discovery... can at least be published in thirty papers in the Academy of Sciences!"

Chen Fan: "???"

What kind of new measurement standard is this?

Song Ziliang calmly closed the holographic report in front of him and asked Chen Fan: "I saw the test report. The earth's core is about to cool down. This planetary silicon-based life form is probably going to die..."

"You want to save him?"

"It's a shame to rashly interfere with the development of low-level civilizations..."

"But he is a special life form." Chen Fan straightened his face and interrupted Song Ziliang again, "So I plan to let him join the Human Union."

"By the way, find a way for him to continue to live."

Song Ziliang raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

"I know the rules." Chen Fan muttered in a low voice: "Isn't it just a reward..."

"You just said that this guy's body is worth thirty papers, so this is the reward."

"..." Song Ziliang was silent for a moment, "Wait a minute, I don't know much about silicon-based biology, I'll help you get a big guy."

...

A few minutes later.

Chen Fan looked at a familiar figure who suddenly appeared in the communication channel with a strange look, and coughed uncomfortably.

Isn't this Wang Jing? !

This is the big guy that Song Ziliang got? !

Thinking about it carefully, it's normal. The other party is the only Class I academician of biology in the management bureau, and he can indeed be called a big guy.

But... Thinking of Wang Jing's previous attempt to perform a craniotomy on him, Chen Fan suddenly felt uneasy.

In the holographic projection, Wang Jing raised her eyebrows slightly, and her beautiful eyes stared at Chen Fan...'s head, and the rotten flesh around Chen Fan.

Chen Fan could even feel the interest in Wang Jing's eyes!

Although he didn't know whether the other party was curious about his head or the rotten meat around him, Chen Fan still shuddered slightly.

At this moment, he agreed more and more with what Song Ziliang had said:

those who do biological research are crazy!

Wang Jing's lazy eyes glanced around casually, and finally stopped at the report in front of him.

"Planetary silicon-based life?"

The intellectual voice sounded in the cockpit of the research ship full of rotten meat, which seemed extremely inconsistent: "This is indeed a new thing."

"Someone in the biology department has proposed a similar hypothesis, but no corresponding case has been found so far."

"Yes, I want this experimental sample."

Wang Jing said in an unquestionable tone: "How much is it? Name a number."

Chen Fan raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and the scene of communicating with the silicon-based life form flashed in his mind.

"If it's okay..."

He hesitated and said an amazing idea.

The moment the voice fell, Song Ziliang had already cast a shocked look at Chen Fan.

Wang Jing also looked at him in surprise: "Your idea... is indeed quite fresh."

"If it really succeeds, this silicon-based life form is probably unique in the human alliance."

Chen Fan frowned subconsciously: "Is it impossible?" "

It's a small matter."

Wang Jing's mouth corners slightly raised, and she replied softly: "You send that silicon-based life to me. When I have studied it enough, I will naturally help you solve those small problems."

Chen Fan was skeptical about Wang Jing's words.

But he glanced at Song Ziliang, who knew nothing about biology, and could only sigh helplessly.

Forget it, just sacrifice the unknown silicon-based creature.

I think he should be willing... right?

Thinking of this, Chen Fan nodded vigorously, and a bright smile appeared on his face:

"Deal."
