Chapter 47: Seventy Years Ago 6

  Section 1

  Among a cluster of uneven tombstones, several dark figures gathered together in conversation.

  Long-eared Phantom: "The ancient castle where the Super Warrior Laboratory is located, during the time of Tsar Peter III, belonged to a count named Tandinburg. During the Great Revolution in Russia, the nobility was scattered and this ancient castle became state property. At first, it was converted into a prison for holding noble prisoners, but after many nobles were executed, it was left vacant. The Sixth Bureau discovered and renovated this ancient castle, where there are layers of mechanisms, copper walls and iron walls, making it very difficult to sneak in."

  Dark Phantom: "Long Ears, don't be too proud. In the eyes of our phantom team, there's no place that can't be entered. Black Cat, sneak into Tantin Castle and confirm whether there are any surviving scientists conducting the Super Warrior experiment. Remember, just infiltrate, no action is allowed!"

  Hei Mao You Ling: "Don't worry, Lao Da, this world really has no place that I can't enter. Didn't I also enter Dalin's official residence?"

  Long-eared specter: "Without my reliable intelligence, you're blind and deaf, don't be so arrogant!"

  Black Cat Phantom: "What did you say? You mean all the credit goes to you?"

  "Shut up, you two! Can't you see each other without fighting? It's so annoying, listen to me!"

  Dark Phantom: "The greatest credit of course goes to the dead soldier, he repeatedly executed assassination explosion missions and repeatedly escaped from death, I am ashamed not to be like him!"

  Black Cat Phantom: "This guy Dies often comes back to life, don't treat him as a human being anymore. The most formidable one is still Dark Boss, otherwise how could he be the leader?"

  Long Ears Ghost: "You just know how to flatter!"

  "Alright, Black Cat. I want results in 3 days. Long Ears, continue gathering intel and report back to me promptly. Deadshot, prepare your arsenal. This time, we're going to be even more ruthless than before. No survivors will be left behind."

  These four men, clad in black robes and wearing black masks, stood in the darkness, despite knowing that there was no living thing within a kilometer of them. They were still furtive and suspicious, each with their own ulterior motives, their eyes gleaming with malice. They were devils, they were plagues, they were slaughter...

  In the ancient castle laboratory, Li Fengnian was studying his own variation of abilities. His emotions and thoughts were under control, allowing him to change some things. When he was afraid or angry, his body would undergo tremendous changes. Li Fengnian was researching how to control his abilities through memory recall. Without any guidance or help, the people around him were all military personnel and martial artists, how could they possibly understand Ivanov's scientific technology? Li Fengnian had no choice but to teach himself, groping in the dark to grasp the secrets of his own body. Even if he couldn't unlock the secrets, he wanted to control his own destiny, and even if it meant sacrificing his life, he would return to his homeland to dedicate it.

  Li Fengnian found that his skin could leave his body and still seem to have a life of its own. No matter how long it was away from his body, when he stuck it back on, it seemed like it would grow back. But the skin that had been suddenly torn off wouldn't heal quickly, especially if it had been exposed to the outside for a long time, which made it even more difficult. His memory became very strong, and he could easily remember many things, never forgetting them, including the voices and appearances of people around him, and even their habits, all of which he would unintentionally commit to memory. Every night when he was alone, he would train and study his body in the darkness, trying to thoroughly master how to transform into someone else and how to change back into himself.

  Section 2

  The territory of the Prussian Empire is expanding, and its blitzkrieg tactics are invincible. Wherever it goes, it conquers with ease, and its powerful military force dominates the European continent. Although Russia is not in immediate danger for the time being, a war between Prussia and Russia is only a matter of time. Russia's vast territory makes it impossible to effectively counter Prussia's blitzkrieg tactics. Both countries are delaying the inevitable, and they have even signed a non-aggression treaty. Silleter thinks that after conquering Europe, he will then attack Russia; Dalinsky thinks that Russia is such a large country, how dare you, Prussia, attack me? I won't attack you, so just behave yourself!

  The whole country of Russia did not have the tense atmosphere before the war, only a few people felt the threat of war, and the people were busy with production and construction, five-year plans one after another, developing the economy in a single-minded way. The Russian army had a large number of troops but was not equipped with the most advanced weapons, and compared to the heavily armed Prussian soldiers, they were far inferior. Dalinsky's idea was that if he could have just one more five-year plan, Russia would become the most developed country, and advanced weapon equipment would also be fully equipped for the whole army, becoming a country that inspires awe. But would Siret give Russia this time to develop? There was no such possibility.

  No matter whether it was international or domestic, Li Fengnian was completely unaware of the situation. He could only regard honing himself as a way to serve his country. Originally, he would do things in the dark of night, but during the day, he would secretly experiment, gradually mastering everything step by step. He gave his skill a very traditional name - "易容术" (Easy Change Technique). In order to overcome the weakness of not being able to recover immediately after using Easy Change, every day he would remove a small piece of skin from his face and body until he could assemble an entire face. Every night, he would secretly use Easy Change to transform into someone in the laboratory, perfectly imitating that person. In the end, whoever he transformed into, he became that person! Except for his inner thoughts, he could imitate everything about that person, or rather, he was that person!

  The black cat phantom's comings and goings were always silent and stealthy, like a ghost she rode the wind from the sky, landing on the tip of the Tantin Castle tower. If someone happened to see her at that moment, they would only see a slightly larger black cat, or a black cat with gliding wings, or even a giant bat. She entered the ancient castle through ventilation openings that people couldn't fit into, crawling with snake-like agility and speed, passing through the air vents like lightning (the rotation speed of the air vents was not as high back then). She quickly entered the interior of the castle. This phantom seemed to have no weight at all, and the security personnel didn't notice her shadow. The black cat phantom roamed freely in the castle, searching for the Super Warrior Laboratory's trail with abandon.

  If the Black Cat Phantom hadn't found the Super Warrior Laboratory, it might have avoided the complete destruction of the Roshen Ghost Corps. However, as soon as the Black Cat Phantom appeared at the Super Warrior Laboratory, it was "heard" by someone - Alyosha, a special agent from the Sixth Bureau's Special Function Department, who had superhuman hearing. He heard the sound of the Black Cat Phantom landing, despite it being as quiet as a feather falling to the ground. Deputy Director Mensak immediately received a phone call and instructed all agents to temporarily hold their positions, luring the infiltrator to Minkov's location. The person disguised as a Super Warrior had to pretend with all their might to lure in the enemy's ghost troops. The Black Cat successfully reconnoitered the entire situation at the Super Warrior Laboratory and retreated back to the castle, satisfied. Deputy Director Mensak immediately increased the deployment of special agents' protection, casting a large net to await the enemy.

  As for Li Fengnian's busy work, no one in the sixth bureau cared about it because this person was just a bait, an amnesiac, and Ming Ke was useless. What results could he come up with? Once his mission was completed, he would be sent out to become an ordinary laborer. Every single person in Russia was working hard for the country's prosperity, without exception.

  Li Fengnian's face-changing technique has matured, and he can now transform into any adult man. He created two sets of human skin masks using his own skin, allowing him to completely become someone else as long as he could see, hear, or touch them. However, there was one thing that puzzled him - why couldn't he change back into Li Fengnian? No matter how hard he tried to recall his original appearance, he couldn't transform back. Even his own voice from before was gone, and his appearance and voice now only existed in his memories. How tragic it would be for someone to spend their entire life being someone else...
