"The detection methods differ. You detect by directly sensing with spiritual power, whereas my method involves analyzing brainwave activity, localized bioelectrical responses in the brain tissue, in conjunction with specific mathematical models and technical means, to produce a composite quantified result.
The Supernatural Ability Suppressant is like a wall that blocks the dissemination of his spirit, but it doesn't prevent the instrument's detection and calculation."
Hanna Gagel did not explain in detail the principles behind Supernatural Ability Suppressants. The formulation and principles of this functional potion are still in a strict confidentiality stage to prevent misuse by those with ulterior motives.
Many criminals with special abilities on Blue Star still require this widely applicable suppressant for effective control.
Clodia nodded her massive head in understanding of the situation.
It turned out she had approached the matter incorrectly. Humans are not Metallic Dragons, so how could they lack spiritual power?
The young human's spiritual power had not disappeared, it was still there, merely obscured by the effects of the medicine. Unable to catch the fluctuations of spirit, even the Illusion Dragon's proud innate ability was as useless as a cook without rice.
The Dragon Clan's understanding of technology, even with the entire Metallic Dragons undergoing technological transformation and collectively upgrading to digital dragons, still fell short of that of the indigenous Intelligent Species of Blue Star, who had interwoven technology throughout every corner of their world.
The exchange between Cangqiong Star and Blue Star had been going on for thirty years. Although each influenced the other, the directions of their civilizations' development had distinct characteristics. These differences actually gave rise to the sustainability and necessity of their exchange.
The collision between civilizations does not always necessitate war; the clash of ideas and technology can also spark the dazzling light of wisdom.
Hanna Gagel tentatively asked, "So does that mean Chen Fei must wait for the Supernatural Ability Suppressant to wear off before another investigation can be conducted? There should still be half a month left of its effect."
She did not think there was anything wrong with Chen Fei, the newcomer.
He had been brought to the International Medical Ship in a mangled state and barely saved, with hardly any opportunities to act.
If the company had not, out of humanitarianism, used a valued magic potion to restore him back to health, even if he had survived, he would be a powerless and immobile invalid.
To lose one's ability to work at such a young age and live a life worse than death, it might have been better to have died altogether.
"No need, I have already finished the investigation!"
Unexpectedly, Clodia shook her head.
Hanna Gagel couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise.
"This Pure Light Sparrow allows me to see many things."
The gaze of the Psychic Illusion Dragon landed on Chen Fei's shoulder.
Who said one must focus spiritual perception only on oneself? There are other eyes by his side.
Chen Fei turned his head and glanced at Little Bird hopping around obliviously.
You little treacherous snitch!
Xiao Jiu affectionately pecked at Daddy's earlobe.
It was completely unaware that its memories had been scrutinized by the Psychic Dragon not far away.
As the next person stood before the Psychic Illusion Dragon Clodia, Chen Fei's doubts grew, and he could no longer hold back, voicing his own questions.
"Manager Hanna, what exactly is the company and the dragons investigating?"
Prior to this, the psychological counselor had clearly been acting strange.
This visit from the Sky Dragon City diplomatic mission from Cangqiong Star was even more off.
Why must they repeatedly check everyone's memories, refusing to spare even personal privacies?
Not just Chen Fei, but everyone at Aircrew Base 911 felt that something was not right; however, out of fear of the domineering manner of the One-Eye lady, as well as the "Genuine Fragrance" Combat Flight Squadron crashing headlong into the enemy's muzzles, receiving a severe round of intimidation, nobody dared to raise such a blatant question.
Only Chen Fei, a brazen newcomer unafraid of "tigers," would ask so directly to her face.
"That is company confidential, not to be inquired into by anyone."
The female executive manager's face hardened, her expression noticeably displeased.
The company's decisions are to be followed. Thinking anything extra is unnecessary.
Chen Fei became increasingly convinced there was a problem here.
But seeing Manager Hanna's attitude and expression, with warnings both overt and covert, he guessed that the personal reasons were probably not that simple.
"Don't ask any more questions!"
A fan-sized large hand pressed onto Chen Fei's head as the calm mechanic chief Xiao Ming made eye contact with Hanna Gagel.
The message conveyed in his eyes was unmistakable.
This is my man; if you have any issues, come at me!
The people lined up behind Chen Fei were quickly investigated and it didn't take Clodia much time. It turned its gaze to the female executive manager, who had been overseeing the whole process.
"Is there anyone left?"
Hanna Gagel held a list; after investigating each person, the Psychic Illusion Dragon would mark a check next to their name.
Now those checks had reached the last person on the list.
Fortunately, neither the psychological counselor earlier, nor the Psychic Illusion Dragon now, had detected any sign of disloyalty--the loyalty and professional ethics of everyone at the Aircrew Base were completely beyond doubt.
Such a team was reassuring.
"The investigation is over; let's return to Sky Dragon City!"
The Psychic Dragon Clodia didn't hesitate for a moment.
The suspicion concerning Aircrew Base was dismissed—it seemed the problem wasn't here.
If someone had hidden Bit's Heart Core somewhere, as a fellow metallic dragon, Yilan would surely have noticed. But so far, this female Metallic Dragon had not discovered anything either.
If the people were clear, and the base was clear, then that equated to no problems at all.
Finding the Metallic Dragon Bit's Heart Core would likely require looking into other areas.
Hanna Gagel didn't expect that as soon as the investigation finished, they would leave immediately, but then she thought that this place, with its rugged mountains and rivers, really had no scenic views or local products worth lingering for.
The other party was a giant dragon, with no interest whatsoever in sightseeing, so why stay after finishing the business at hand?
For sure, Aircrew Base could not be more comfortable than Sky Dragon City.
However, out of courtesy, the executive manager had some gifts prepared to give to the two dragons and the four Dragon Knights from the Cangqiong Star Silan Dynasty.
Apart from the alloy ingot specifically for the female Metallic Dragon Yilan, the other gifts were mainly local specialties from Blue Star, the latest technological products, and some particularly tasty snacks.
For this reason, the Apocalypse Defense Group had a special aircraft make a temporary trip to get everything ready.
The rune patterns on the Deflector Magical Instruments, planted on the grass near the main runway, lit up one after another, lifting off the ground and converging together, forming a giant umbrella that spanned across the sky and slowly began to rotate in mid-air.
Before leaving, the female Metallic Dragon Yilan felt somewhat reluctant to leave Chen Fei, since he had treated her to a feast and she had eaten to her fill—an opportunity that did not come by often.
Yilan had harbored a slight fantasy upon arrival, but now, the person she found agreeable could not become her Dragon Rider, which she regretted as she said, "Chen Fei, I'm leaving. It's a pity you can eat metal too. If you became my Dragon Rider, we would surely end up fighting, which isn't good. I don't want to fight you, and you probably don't want to fight me either."
"No need, no need, things are fine as they are. We're friends," replied Chen Fei, sweating profusely, not daring to entertain the thought.
Let alone the fact that the Dragon Clan had long ceased to recognize new Dragon Riders and had destroyed all the Dragon Flutes, turning all the trainees selected to become Dragon Riders into Sky Knights. Even if they made an exception and allowed a special case, the survival odds of becoming the Dragon of Slaughter's partner were about the same as winning a jackpot in a lottery.
The jackpot had already been won; purchasing such a "lottery ticket" now would be nothing short of a dead end, wouldn't it?
Even if Yilan was entirely willing, Chen Fei was not!
There's a saying that goes, "Cherish life, stay away from Metallic Dragons."
"Right, we're friends!"
The female Metallic Dragon nodded vigorously, poking her own body with her tail and extracting something that emitted a soft white light, about the size of Chen Fei's fist, and pushed it towards him.
