Noland Lee emptied Kasha’s pockets and stuffed various battle potions into his backpack.
He reached into Kasha’s backpack and took out a rolled-up route map in the shape of a barrel.
When Noland Lee opened the map and took a look, he couldn’t help but feel troubled.
He did not consider himself an excessively kind-hearted person.
But if there was a chance to save many lives by lifting a finger, he would not ignore it.
So, he had to find a way to get this breakout map into the hands of the soldiers stationed at the Legion Fortress.
Noland Lee stood up and pushed Kasha’s corpse into the river with a forceful kick.
He did the same to the other four elite fighters’ corpses as he passed them, pushing them all into the water.
The river carried the corpses northwards while Noland Lee swept the bloodstained mud back into the water, retrieving all the casings and bullet heads from the ground.
With that, the corpse disposal was complete.
No one would know how Kasha died unless she appeared as an undead on the battlefield.
Of course, the collection of soul fragments was also essential. Seeing a corpse and collecting soul fragments had become Noland Lee’s instinct.
Noland Lee glanced around to ensure that he hadn’t left any clues behind before heading toward the steam boiler room.
He checked the spoils of the recent battle in his mind.
[System Message: You killed Military Intelligence Section Two investigator
Sergeant Kasha with “Death Finger”. You killed four elite fighters from Military Intelligence Section Two with a revolver.] [Passive Deconstruction activated!]
[You gained the following Deconstruction Results:]
Your “Kinetic Weapon Shooting Proficiency” gained a lot of experience and increased to Level 4.]
You unlocked the standard panel for “Tatis Empire Military Intelligence Section Two Sergeant”, rewarded with 1000 energy points.]
You unlocked the standard panel for “Tatis Empire Intelligence Department 4 Special Forces”, rewarded with 500 energy points.]
You gained the personalized panel information of “Sergeant Kasha”.] [4. You gained the personalized panel information of “Four Elite Fighters”.]
As Noland Lee rushed to his destination, he checked the results of the deconstruction.
The panel information of the four elite fighters was nothing special.
Their “Tenacity” and “Vitality” attributes were relatively prominent, and their skill levels related to shooting and biochemical mutation were high.
The knowledge and memories they possessed were quite similar to one another, essentially the military courses they had taken at the Empire’s Military Academy.
Now Noland Lee understood a pattern.
The knowledge and memories obtained from using the Deconstruction technique were not the entire content of the deconstructed objects, but the knowledge they used most often or memories that were relatively vivid and important.
For example, memories of a child growing up playing in the mud and other such experiences would not appear in the panel information.
Instead, classroom contents like “Imperial Army Combat Regulations” , “Uncovered Shooting Training” , and “Military Bunker Construction Tutorial” were displayed on the panel information.
Noland Lee quickly flipped through the memories of the elite fighters and soon found them dull and uninteresting, all of which were rigid soldier training and classroom content.
He pushed these pieces of knowledge and memories aside and began to check Kasha’s recent memories.
What he saw made Noland Lee break out in a cold sweat.
He suddenly stopped in his tracks, the hooded figure swaying with the abrupt halt. His head turned jerkily behind him, the gaze following the course of the river up north.
“I never would have guessed that Kasha and Murphy were both daughters of the Emperor. How did I get myself tangled up with the Emperor’s blood feud? Are you people with royal bloodlines all out of your minds? Coming to the frontlines to cause trouble for no reason? And hiding your names and identity, making yourself look like ordinary soldiers…”
Noland Lee placed a hand on his forehead, shaking his head helplessly as he resumed his journey.
“The top-to-bottom hierarchy of the Tatis Empire is all twisted. I give up. Doesn’t the Emperor care about his daughters? Why put them through trials in the army?
As Noland Lee walked, his pace slowed, shaking his head again in amazement at the memories he saw:
. No wonder the Emperor doesn’t keep his children close. There are too many of them. He has over two thousand wives and at least five thousand descendants. He breeds more than a pig… Losing a daughter shouldn’t be a deep hatred for him…”
Despite saying this, Noland Lee still felt a chill in his heart…
At a glance, the soul strength collection record made Noland Lee realize that the Emperor’s daughters, besides being famous, were not much different from ordinary people.
Kasha’s soul strength was the same as that of an ordinary person, 0.2 points.
Moreover, according to panel data, the soul strength of the living elite fighters and Kasha was also only 1 point, the same as an ordinary person.
Noland Lee initially thought that the souls of the “Imperial Fist” would be special somehow.
Now it seemed that was not the case.
“Ah, what a waste ot that ‘Death Finger’… Now I have to go back to the pile ot corpses to replenish my soul strength.. ‘
The loss of soul strength was a minor issue, with time making up for it.
However, what really concerned Noland Lee was a passive skill on Kasha’s panel:
‘Bloodline Sensing’.
As the name suggests.
The Emperor could vaguely sense his children through their bloodline connections, knowing their general location and life status..
