Big Data Cultivation

During the process of unifying the Human Race, the Human Federation used various means, involving both persuasion and force, which required considerable effort, but dealing with the Xiongman Empire did not require much thought.

Firstly, Xiongman was in the midst of a civil war, and secondly, their technological capabilities were indeed poor.

They could not produce many high-end military equipments and had to purchase them from outside.

This is actually a common phenomenon in a noble society where social strata are extremely rigid, and capable commoners have no chance to advance, so how can technology develop?

The nobles accumulated considerable wealth through exploitation, so they still had the capability to purchase weapons.

The Eighth from the military department believed that with the Xiongman Restoration Army’s level of technology, they could never develop such a magical mimetic technique.

So he straightforwardly stated: Salina, I trust you! My question just now was unintentional.

At this moment, the person inspecting the visual residue also provided results, and sure enough, just before Gobaf died, there was a complete blackness in his vision, with no images at all. However, everyone could confirm that this person had just died.

"We can basically assume," a senior major from the intelligence department stated, "that the person who entered here just now was not Gobaf, but there is a high possibility it was the person downloading data. They hid Gobaf in advance and deliberately used mimicry to enter the command center..."

"What was the motive?" The Eighth coldly asked, "Let’s not talk about how the other party left; what was their motive for doing this?"

The senior major kept his mouth shut and did not answer.

However, someone beside him quickly answered, "It’s a provocation. They knew we were investigating them, so they deliberately came to the command center for a stroll and also dug out a Human Race traitor, which counts as mocking us... judging by his performance in the command center, one can guess."

"Is it necessarily a provocation?" Someone disagreed, "In any case, they helped uncover a traitor, maybe they meant to show goodwill, indicating that downloading the data was not malicious."

The senior major still kept a straight face and didn’t speak. He had guessed some answers, but couldn’t say them carelessly.

Salina’s eyes suddenly brightened; in this situation, her mind turned quickly, "If there was no malice, why download the data secretly? I understand now; it’s very likely them."

"Who is it?" Someone glanced at her with curiosity, only to find her pressing her lips tightly, seemingly unwilling to answer.

The Eighth looked at her with a strange glance, then nodded slightly, "If you have an idea, speak up. Don’t worry."

In fact, he also had some guesses, but this topic really could not be spoken from his mouth; he had to rely on Salina.

Salina had no choice; in the army, it’s truly "a higher rank suppresses a person by one level," even if she was unwilling, she had to grit her teeth and say, "Considering that the other party left very mysteriously, I think it’s very likely... the family we’re eager to dialogue with."

Hearing this, many instantly understood why she was unwilling to clarify, but there was a young person who didn’t understand and blurted out, "Is it the faction of the Super Gene Warrior? Weird, why do they need the maintenance data of military equipment?"

Fool! More than one person cursed him quietly, but after a while, someone still explained, "This faction did acquire a lot of our military equipment recently, perhaps they haven’t come into contact with such equipment much."

He was quite decent, not explaining too clearly, but the young man finally understood, "It’s because a while ago Minister Shen..."

His words stopped abruptly as well. Although young, he came from a military family, otherwise he wouldn’t be so well-informed — most soldiers were not even aware of Minister Shen being investigated, yet he knew the reason.

But he couldn’t continue speaking; it might not necessarily be considered leaking — everyone present was of quite a high security level, able to bear such a small risk. But considering the subject being discussed... it’s taboo.

The Eighth nodded, expressing very openly, "Minister Shen did indeed lose a batch of equipment, he was a bit too eager... haste makes waste, many things shouldn’t be forced."

The elder Eighth critiqued the Fourth, which was somewhat disrespectful in terms of rank, but he knew that Minister Shen was already dead; he had the guts to criticize a dead tiger, considering their not too distant status and rank.

Among those present, quite a few knew that the mysterious faction’s arms trade began with the Development Bank.

However, even on this planet, the Development Bank is no less of a threat than Minister Shen, and now that Minister Shen has been suspended and investigated, even the Eighth dared to openly critique him, naturally, others wouldn’t be foolish enough to mention the Development Bank again.

Salina’s eyes brightened again, "Minister Shen seems... seems to have also used a laser pistol to commit suicide."

Upon saying this, the scene became chaotic instantly, and the reckless young man couldn’t help but ask aloud, "Did Minister Shen... commit suicide?"

The Eighth coldly glanced at Salina, "I don’t know where you got your information, do you understand confidentiality rates?"

Salina’s face also turned red, but she stubbornly stated, "It’s about to be announced, and a large number of people will be affected. How could it possibly be kept secret?"

The seasoned major couldn’t help but ask, "Minister Shen... how is the situation?"

He thought maybe there was still a chance for rescue, but Salina hesitated for a moment before replying, "The person is already gone."

The scene immediately fell into a deathly silence, and no one was willing to speak again.

After a long time, Number Eight shook his head and turned to leave, "Dig deeper into the deceased’s social connections. We must find out how many human race traitors are on this planet!"

He left just like that, leaving a bunch of people looking at each other in dismay. Finally, the seasoned major sighed, "If they wanted to download the data, where couldn’t they download it from? This is their revenge on the military department!"

Feng Jun listened to the big boss’s account, also a bit stunned. It’s really wrong to underestimate anyone. He was merely trying to find out how Salina discovered him and incidentally expose another human race traitor. Unexpectedly, they deduced the truth.

This reminded him of Beauty Lin’s team, which, by understanding his daily behavior, managed to deduce a character profile that was very close to reality.

This shows that there truly is no task too difficult as long as someone is willing, and one cannot underestimate any professional.

As for their guess about his true identity and intentions, he wasn’t very concerned. Actually, his actions in the military department had a strong element of revenge; otherwise, if he wanted the data, he could have easily asked Chen Family’s Ninth Brother or someone else for help.

So now that they’ve guessed the truth, he feels even happier. If they remained oblivious after his revenge, it would have been too unsatisfying—only when you guess it will my mind feel at ease.

At the same time, he was very curious about how the Xiajing military department would react—would it be the same as Minister Shen, with an irreconcilable attitude, or willing to abandon their power struggles for the human race’s development?

For this reason, he stayed in Xiajing for another day. Actually, when he infiltrated the military department, it had already reached the time he agreed upon with Luan Xiong True Sage. However, there was no protective talisman alert from that side. Wouldn’t the true sage be happier if he arrived two or three days later?

However, in the following day and night, the Xiajing military department made no response to the "mysterious force", focusing all efforts on tracing the Insect God Cult, even incidentally uncovering two people from other resistance organizations.

At night, the military department resumed its usual vigilance, the command room still had two mobile sentry posts, and the guards at the building’s entrance no longer dozed off, while Salina continued her duties, running back and forth all night.

However, in Salina’s office, several surveillance devices remained, and two sprinklers were not removed. Clearly, this was an unspoken warning, indicating the Xiajing military didn’t want him to continue downloading data—although such actions would have no effect.

So Feng Jun understood their attitude. They didn’t want to provoke, but neither were they interested in active acceptance, roughly implying: let’s each play our own games and not interfere with each other, shall we?

This is certainly not the best result, but Feng Jun was already satisfied. In reality, the Human Federation is also like this now. The Federation’s influence cannot effectively permeate any planet, so having a central figure on Xingzheng Star is enough.

Whether or not the orders from Xingzheng Star’s leader could be conveyed was another matter. If not, it could slowly progress.

Just like when the Federation suppressed the Xiongman rebellion eighty years ago, it was because a leader on Xingzheng Star was killed, and the Federation had to act as this touched a bottom line.

But in fact, with the human race being oppressed by the insect race as a major enemy, internal minor issues don’t count as problems.

Only by fully recognizing this can the human defense line be barely held, and Minister Shen’s problem was placing too much importance on the Federation’s facade—you think you hold supreme power, but others have to acknowledge that.

What Feng Jun didn’t realize was, the Xiajing military department wasn’t unwilling to deal with him, but... since Minister Shen died under mysterious circumstances, many were still apprehensive, let alone that the speculation came from Salina—who claimed Minister Shen also committed suicide with a laser pistol.

If he truly had the capability to make Military Department Four commit suicide under tight surveillance conditions in Youjing, others would have to weigh the consequences.

Anyway, after clarifying the Xiajing military department’s attitude, Feng Jun did not linger any longer and went directly to find Luan Xiong True Sage.

He arrived at the "Third Battlefield" where Luan Xiong and Tuotuo were having fun, the two hunting insect race Nascent Souls on the planet, making the insect race shiver in fear within days.

Receiving Feng Jun’s Divine Sense, the two feared something had happened and hurriedly came over.

When Luan Xiong True Sage heard from Feng Jun that he was being picked up back to the Zhezhi Star System, he couldn’t help but complain, "I mean, we just cornered two Nascent Souls and were about to kill them. You summoned me over, so I thought it was something major."

"True Sage, haven’t you been here for five days already?" Feng Jun wanted to respect the True Sage, but with such remarks, he really couldn’t, "On the third day, you were supposed to leave, and I gave you two extra days, okay?"

Luan Xiong True Sage was unhappy upon hearing this and glared, "Why should I have to leave in three days?"
