Chapter 60 Even if It Is the End of the World, the Manuscript Must Be Submitted!
So fast? !
Just finished writing in the past week?
Jason looked at the manuscript that Cortana handed over in surprise, and took it subconsciously.
You know, in his thoughts, Cortana will not be able to write the first draft until next month at the earliest, and he promised the editor to submit the draft at the end of the month, so naturally he has to find a way to delay the draft.
Although the excuses such as a broken stomach, a sick cat, and a dog needing to change their teeth have been used, they can still be used again at critical moments.
But Cortana's speed is amazing.
Even more amazing is the quality of the manuscript.
Jason sat on the sofa and flipped through it.
Almost after reading a page, he was completely hooked.
Swish, swish.
Soon, in the living room, there was only the sound of pages turning.
After a full hour, Jason let out a long breath and put the book down.
how to say?
Obviously it is the same story, he wrote it like a running account, but Cortana wrote it is thrilling and wonderful, every line of text attracts people to read it, and it will not come back until the last page is seen.
No need to modify, you can edit it directly!
Jason came to this conclusion.
Then he thought about his level again——
Sure enough, the talent for swordsmanship limited my writing skills.
Jason thought with certainty that he didn't have any negative emotions in his heart.
He knew very well that not even a 'God' could be perfect.
What's more, what about people?
No one is perfect.
Jason remembers this sentence from his hometown.
Since he has a good appetite,
Then you can't expect to have a good cooking skill, can you?
"Writing really well!"
Looking up, Jason looked at Cortana, telling the truth.
Cortana, who had been waiting for Jason's evaluation, let go of her dangling heart after hearing Jason's words.
When she promised Jason to help complete this new book, she was uneasy, not only afraid that the writing could not live up to Jason's expectations, but also worried that it would affect Jason's reputation.
After all, Jason is a well-known writer.
Therefore, she really tried her best to write, to learn those writing skills, and even used a little of her 'natural ability'.
This made her even more tired.
However, after hearing what Jason had to say, Cortana thought it was all worth it.
"As long as you are satisfied."
Cortana laughed.
Then, she put the metal box beside her on the coffee table.
"This is the 'Spartan potion' you exchanged for your merits."
"Two!"
Cortana restrained her smile, looked at Jason with a very serious expression, and reminded: "Master Chief, your physical fitness is among the best among all the people I have seen, but the 'Spartan potion' is still dangerous, You definitely have no problem with the first and second ones, but please use the third one with caution, be careful!"
The adjutant reminded again and again.
Jason nodded.
Jason will not refuse a kind reminder from others.
Of course, Jason is also curious about how many people have taken the 'Spartan Elixir'.
In his guess, the 'Ground Reconnaissance Bureau' should have a special army that has taken the 'Spartan Pharmacy'.
"Have many people taken 'Spartan Elixir'?"
"You don't have to answer if it involves confidentiality."
Jason added.
"No secrets involved."
"Actually, it's a semi-open secret."
"When the 'Ground Alliance' was not established at first, all the governments on the ground were afraid of the existence of the 'Mysterious Side', especially the actions of the members of the 'Golden Wind', which made the big Some governments have started research on 'Super Soldiers', and 'Spartan Potions' is one of them."
"However, taking the 'Spartan Elixir' does not mean becoming a true Spartan."
"A qualified Spartan warrior needs carbonized ceramic bones, reinforced muscle fibers and superconducting nerves, and then with the 'Spartan potion', he is a trainee Spartan warrior."
Cortana shook her head and did not refuse to answer. She described the part about the 'Spartan potion' in detail.
"Apprenticeship?"
Jason was startled.
"Well, apprentice."
"Spartans still need the most important thing: the heart of being human."
Cortana nodded, accentuating her tone.
"A human heart?"
Jason repeated the words in a low voice.
Although it was just a simple sentence, Jason was keenly aware that there were some not-so-good stories in it.
However, Cortana didn't say it, and Jason naturally wouldn't ask.
Jason has a very good impression of the female adjutant who helped him complete the main task in front of him.
"Apart from the Spartans, are there any super warriors?"
Jason changed the subject.
This time Cortana didn't answer, just looked at Jason with a small smile.
The meaning could not be more obvious.
Apart from 'Spartans', there must be other types of super fighters.
It just involves confidentiality, there is no way to say it explicitly.
Jason didn't ask questions before, now? Naturally neither.
"How about the national conscription?"
For a week, Jason didn't know the outside world. Even if he heard about it, he occasionally heard a few words from the mouth of Kemi who delivered the food.
Very grand.
Many people go to the army.
That's Kemi's description, and it fits the 'few words'.
As for more?
That is the benefit.
It's really good, not only has a high salary, the 'Ground Investigation Bureau' also gives the conditions for contacting the 'mysterious side'.
This is a public announcement.
Newspapers and TV.
And Jason wanted to know something private.
Cortana did not disappoint Jason.
"About a million soldiers have been recruited."
"About 2,000 of them passed the test and entered the 'Bronze Unyielding' barracks. We contacted the three masters of 'Silver Glory', who said that they did not have the energy to teach more people, and, They all stated that they had a human-to-human transmission - although in our data, this is not shown."
"The 'Golden Wind' asked for more living power, but General Rael Funo refused, and stated that the 'Golden Wind' was not allowed to participate in this recruitment."
"As for the 'indestructible diamond'?"
"They are still the same, keeping silent, maybe only at the most critical moment."
Cortana frowned slightly when she spoke of the 'indestructible diamond'.
If the 'mystery side' is already unknown, mysterious and immeasurable to ordinary people, then the 'indestructible diamond' is the 'mystery side' of the 'mystery side'.
Even the 'mystery side' had a hard time reaching people in that group.
According to rumors, the "Liu" who summoned the meteorite before came from this organization.
"There are also those scattered 'mysterious side people', some of them also chose to join the 'Ground Investigation Bureau' after this Sabie attack."
"It gives us more living power."
There was a smile on Cortana's face when she said the news.
No one knows the value of a "mysterious side person" better than her.
Whether it is a frontal battlefield or some small-scale battles, a group of 'mysterious sidemen' can turn the tide of the battle as long as they are properly arranged.
"What about the Sabians?"
Jason continued to ask about things he was interested in.
"very quiet!"
"They appear to have gone silent after the raid a week ago."
"Not only are there no scouts from all over the place, but even the attacks on the 'Moon Surface' battlefield have stopped."
"The staff thinks that this is the calm before the storm, so that everyone is ready to fight at any time, while the troops stationed on the 'moon surface' strengthened their defenses and began to build more fortresses."
Cortana, who had just been smiling just now, had a look of sadness on her face.
The existence of the Sabians, like the sword of Damocles hanging over the head, is really unpleasant.
"How did the small battleship appear before, is the investigation clear?"
Jason continued to ask.
"No."
"We used a variety of methods to thoroughly search the area, including the help of some special people on the 'mysterious side', but found nothing."
"It's as if it just appeared out of nowhere."
"and……"
Speaking of this, Cortana's voice couldn't help but feel more unease on her face.
After a full two or three seconds of pause, Cortana continued: "Also, when a fortune-teller was there, he vomited blood and fell into a coma, and has not woken up until now."
"According to the inspection of other professionals, it can be determined that this divination master encountered interference and attack during the divination."
"And the way of interference and attack is not any one they are familiar with."
Jason listened and sat up unconsciously.
"That is to say..."
He looked at Cortana.
"The Sabians should also have methods similar to the 'mysterious side', but different from what we understand, we have gradually confirmed this during the inspection of the small battleship."
"Because, that battleship seems to be 'alive'!"
"A life form we don't know about."
"Although it is mostly metal, we can be sure that this ship is definitely not unique."
Cortana's voice dropped.
This is the top secret in the 'Ground Reconnaissance Bureau' now.
Why tell Jason?
Because, Jason once said, he felt that the battleship was a 'living' word.
I don't know if it was an illusion, Cortana found that after she finished saying this, Jason's eyes lit up, it seemed like... swallowing saliva?
Not the nervous kind.
but hunger?
Cortana was taken aback.
She felt that her thinking couldn't keep up with Jason's rhythm.
Even if those battleships are alive, they can't be eaten, right?
How to eat metal
Put it in your mouth to chew?
Can't do it alone?
Jason noticed the strangeness in Cortana's eyes. He didn't explain, let alone add anything, but asked without a trace, "Where's my Mjolnir standard armor?"
Any explanation leads to more explanations.
Supplements are even more suspicious.
At this time, it is the best way to calmly ask yourself what you deserve.
Immediately, Cortana was attracted.
"It's in the final stages of production."
"Furthermore, because of your performance this time, Master Chief, in addition to the exchange of two 'Spartan potions', General Rael Funo specially strengthened your armor."
"From the ordinary standard type to the enhanced elite type, on the basis of the original, it has acquired the ability to fly and dive, and can also fight in the space environment for a long time."
Jason's eyes lit up at Cortana's words.
You know, his biggest shortcoming now is that he does not have effective anti-air skills.
If it can fly, it will solve this shortcoming.
Even if it is a temporary solution with the help of external force, Jason is happy.
After that, the conversation revolved around this enhanced elite armor.
From the extra weapons to the basic paint, until half an hour later, Cortana got up and left.
"Master Chief, please contact me if you need it."
"I'll be there anytime."
Jason escorted Cortana out of the safe house, the adjutant said before getting into the car.
Jason smiled and nodded in response.
After watching the other party leave, Jason turned around and returned to the underground activity area, directly picked up the phone, and called his editor LaVine.
"LaVine, it's me, Jason."
"Of course I knew it was you, and I could hear your voice."
"I also remember your promise to me before that the manuscript will be delivered at the end of the month."
"And now there are 5 days left!"
"Don't use the excuse of alien invasion to say that you have no intention of writing!"
"Tell you!"
"Even if aliens invade and the world ends, you must submit your manuscript on time!"
As soon as the call was connected, the editor spoke in a serious tone and stern words.
"Well, I'm just talking about the submission."
Jason said.
"Submit?"
"Have you finished writing?"
On the opposite side of the editor, the voice was involuntarily raised a lot, and the voice was full of disbelief.
"It's finished."
Jason said truthfully.
Thought writing is also writing.
When you're done, you're done.
After silently saying sorry, Jason began to think firmly.
"Then fax it over."
"Tell you, if you dare to fill in the manuscript with scraps, I will go to you directly, staring at you every day, either you hang in front of your desk, or I hang in front of your house!"
Before hanging up, the editor again said harshly, no, it could be called dangerous.
Obviously, he should have a 'conviction'.
"Don't worry, it won't."
Soothing the other party, Jason hung up the phone and started to transmit the manuscript by fax.
During this period, two 'Spartan potions' were directly swallowed.
Accident? die?
Jason said that for him on the line with talent, none of these exist.
[Swallowing the special medicine 'Sparta', the judgment is in progress...]
【Judgment passed! 】
[Strength, Agility +0.1]
...
[Swallowing the special medicine 'Sparta', the judgment is in progress...]
【Judgment passed! 】
【Strength +0.1】
...
The effect of the first potion is the same as the previous 'Spartan potion'.
And in the second, the agility boost started to disappear.
"Have you reached the limit of the potion?"
Jason thought.
This was something that was expected and not worth the surprise at all.
What Jason was thinking about was if he was taking the fourth potion, would it still work.
Or……
Will other super warriors have an effect on him?
With this idea in mind, Jason went to the ground after faxing all the manuscripts.
Outside the safe house, John, Brian, and McCall, with the notification from Jason just now, had already been waiting here, and when they saw Jason appearing, the three immediately greeted him.
Moreover, all three of them have double swords in their hands.
The steel sword is the same as the silver sword.
This is made with modern craftsmanship according to the style on Livia's notes.
Although Jason didn't teach anything for a week, the preparations did not fall off. Moreover, during this week, the three of John had already mastered the swordsmanship of 'Silver Glory'.
This is not difficult for the trio of mortal peaks.
The hard part is what comes next—
"On Livia's notes, there are two parts recorded, swordsmanship and seal."
"In terms of swordsmanship, with your physical fitness, you have already started."
"Now? Let's talk about the seal."
As Jason said, a flame appeared in his hand.
call!
The flames beat, and the orange-red light dyed the afternoon with a gorgeous color, and also made the eyes of John, Brian, and McCall brighter.
This,
It's the moment they've been waiting for.
