"Oh, I see."
At this mont, KIKI flew over and used telekinesis to pick up a test tube, examining it closely: "So drinking this can enhance superpowers. Finally, our Blood Essence has another use besides trading..."
"What’s this?" She picked up the round badge, placed it in her palm, noticed it had so weight, and flipped it over to find a data port and so type of communication device on the back.
"This is the Phoenix Order."
Zhou Wuer also took one out from himself. However, his was slightly different, the color was silver-black.
"The Phoenix Society issues special badges to collaborating teams called the Red Phoenix Order. For our internal staff, it’s the Star Phoenix Order. It can decode our area’s radio station or branch transmissions. We call this the Fire Book, containing valid information within 48 hours and the latest research content on superpowers, Star Abyss survival, and Abnormal Bodies. It can also use special frequencies to send and receive help requests, leaving your own Fire Book."
"Simply put, the Phoenix Order can directly use a one-way signal to contact the Phoenix Society organization within a certain range and can leave specific information. For example, if you encounter danger, you can use a full-spectrum broadcast to send out your ’Fire Book information package’. This package will make use of surrounding available communication devices, other survivors’ broadcast equipnt, and the Phoenix Society’s distributed information towers for [transient storage]. If there are other survivor teams nearby broadcasting, the information can leap and be relayed to more distant mbers of the Phoenix Society..."
Zhou Wuer scratched his head as he spoke: "Maybe I’m making it sound too complicated. Of course, the simplest way to understand it is as a form of identity recognition. Teams with a Phoenix Order will be regarded as trustworthy partners or even considered as peers by Phoenix Society organizations across different regions."
"I understand," Lin Xian nodded.
After just experiencing a blizzard pursuit, Lin Xian had used the relay mode with his electronic signal fires to contact the Infinity a hundred kiloters away and had also automatically connected to the rescue team’s signal.
This Phoenix Order is sowhat more advanced. He rembers Wei Kexue previously telling him that there’s so sort of ’dark code’ in the Phoenix Society’s broadcasts used for communication to coordinate different organizational regions. This thod of communication is quite costly—Lin Xian had previously burned through two Level 1 Blood Essences for a limited area broadcast at Hengshan Pass. It’s not hard to imagine the complexity for global broadcasts.
To reduce such costs, each global broadcast by the Phoenix Society embeds nurous ’dark codes’. Lin Xian speculates that permissions might allow different departnts or regions to receive varying content.
Had he possessed it while at Hengshan Pass, he might have directly contacted Phoenix Society mbers operating nearby.
However, now listening to Zhou Wuer, Lin Xian finds the ’Fire Book information package’ particularly intriguing, offering access to the latest research content from the Phoenix Society, effectively synchronizing with official information, a highly valuable resource!
Access to information is crucial for survival, which is why so survivor teams have designated information personnel responsible for 24-hour collection of regional and Phoenix Society global information. In Lin Xian’s group, this task falls mainly to KIKI, Ding Junyi, and Teacher Chen, taking turns.
But even so, fully collecting all information cannot be guaranteed, especially under the Extre Cold Vortex where they haven’t received Phoenix Society broadcast information for days.
"In short, this Red Phoenix Order signifies our collaborating teams for external partnerships, and is our way to manage and connect with potential assets more efficiently in the future. With this, you are recognized by us, the Phoenix Society, representing goodwill. Since it’s just a collaboration, we’re not issuing direct orders. However, when collaboration is needed, the Phoenix Society will prioritize working with trusted teams, offering compensation for either commissions or collaborations. You may also request resources, and we will try to accommodate as long as local personnel can provide assistance."
Lin Xian nodded as KIKI tossed the Phoenix Order over to him. He caught it and said to Zhou Wuer: "This collaboration offers great potential. No matter what, we appreciate your assistance."
"Now let’s talk about the second matter. Our Nightwalker Organization is currently conducting large-scale superpower asurent and information collection in uncharted regions. It’s mutually beneficial; we provide valuable information and evolution help to superpower users, while we gain insights and possibly recruit. We hope to gather more detailed information from you." Zhou Wuer stated.
"Now?"
"No, in Xilan City. You probably won’t be leaving soon, right?" Zhou Wuer asked.
Lin Xian nodded, "We’ll see, we should be moving with the main force after we pass through Star Abyss No. 5, then make further plans."
"By the way," Lin Xian continued with the main issue, "we approached the Phoenix Society for an important matter."
After speaking, Lin Xian looked at Ding Junyi. Since she was a mber of the Phoenix Society, it was convenient to hand over their research data on the Dark Mark, saving so trouble.
Ding Junyi nodded, took out a miniature portable hard drive from her pocket, and handed it to Zhou Wuer, "This is a research docunt on Dark Creatures’ attack behavior patterns against humans. Although lacking so specific parater verification, I believe the Phoenix Society already has considerable research in this area. Our docunt includes practical data that could be valuable. Hope it helps you."
