Chapter 247: Life-saving three-piece set

Lin Fan took out his little black book from his bag.

I didn't expect that something that looks insignificant could have such a magical effect.

"In addition to the work permit, there are also pass keys in our traffic equipment. If you buy a car in the future, remember to register it with the equipment department, and someone will install it for your car." John Woo looked at Lin Fan opening his work permit with a smile and continued.

"Actually, 'key' is just a convenient term. Besides being used for entry and exit, it also has a less commonly used positioning function. It just requires being within a certain distance and operated by a designated person."

"Isn't that GPS?" Lin Fan looked up at John Woo.

"The functions are similar, except the tracking function on our keys doesn't transmit signals via satellite. I'm actually not very clear about the specific working principle." Wu Yusen laughed, "Nowadays, mobile phones can locate it, which is convenient and fast. The tracking function in the key is technically limited due to distance, so it's usually not used. It's just kept as a precaution."

Lin Fan nodded and lowered his head to pull out the cards from his work ID. "Are these all keys?"

There were two paper cards in the notebook, one with her photo and work number printed on it, and the other with information such as her position and the official seal.

I don’t know what special craftsmanship was used, but it has a light golden hue and looks quite classy.

There was also a hard card similar to an ID card, with all her information and photos on one side and the badge of the special agency on the other side.

By the way, since all the information is on the hard card, why do we need two more paper cards?

She thought so in her heart and asked so.

Wu Yusen grinned, his smile widening as he leaned over and pointed at the hard card, saying, "The key is on this card, and the location is also here. But the other things are not just for show."

"This," he said, pointing to the card with his headshot, "is an emergency card. In a life-or-death situation or emergency, tearing this card open instantly sends a distress signal home. The signal lasts long enough for us to locate the incident."

"It seems to be different from the positioning on the key?" After hearing this, Lin Fan carefully pinched a corner of the card, fearing that it would be accidentally torn.

"You don't have to be so careful. They're not that easy to break." Wu Yusen quickly comforted her, "These cards are special. If you don't use force, it's difficult to tear them open."

"Even if you did tear it by mistake, as long as it's not completely disconnected, it's fine. Even if it is disconnected, don't worry, just report it by phone as soon as possible. The cost of the new card will just be deducted from your salary."

"This card is like an emergency call device. As long as the card surface is completely torn, it will be immediately effective. No matter how far away, the police station will instantly detect the distress signal."

"The location tracking device in the hard card is similar to a tracker. It has a range limit and requires skilled operators to locate it. It's a daily tracking device, used when there's no rush."

"I see." Lin Fan understood and handed over another card filled with identity information. "So what's the secret behind this one?"

"This card contains a sealed attack. Throw it out in special circumstances to protect yourself in times of danger." Wu Yusen took the card and flipped it over in his hands. "Different people's cards have different sealed attacks due to their different positions and danger levels. It varies from person to person."

"An attack sealed in a card?" Lin Fan couldn't imagine it.

"Remember that talisman Quan Yingdong used on you when we went to the weapon refining group?" Wu Yusen guided. "It has a similar effect, but the attack here is real."

The original scene instantly appeared in Lin Fan's mind.

The bearded man threw a paper talisman at her, which flew towards her with a whistling sound, and she was startled at the time.

"What kind of attack was it? How did it get blocked in the card?" Lin Fan asked curiously.

"As for attacks, there are many. Some contain a fireball, some are a bolt of lightning, some are like a martial artist's fist wind, and some create illusions... Anyway, basically everyone in the institute who has attack power has contributed." There are so many strange and bizarre skills that John Woo has not seen them all.

"As for how it's sealed into the card, I've never seen it. I only know that there's someone specifically responsible for making the card, and it seems to be a natural talent. There are all kinds of powerful people in the institute, and you'll slowly see them in the future."

After Wu Yusen finished speaking, he solemnly warned Lin Fan, "However, matters involving skills are somewhat secretive. If you are not particularly familiar with them, or if they ask you first, it is best not to ask them easily."

Lin Fan nodded.

She understands.

It goes without saying that special skills cannot be easily disclosed. As for talents, even if people want to talk about them, they are afraid that they can't explain them clearly.

Just like her, if someone asked her what the stars were, she wouldn't be able to answer.

This is the best way, she doesn't ask others and others don't ask her.

"So, is my attack strong?" Lin Fan asked curiously.

"Yours is similar to mine." Wu Yusen was quite familiar with Lin Fan's affairs. "But your Star is already nearly invincible, so it doesn't really matter whether you have this or not. Unlike us, we are mortals and need this kind of attack to survive."

Seeing him mentioning Xingchen directly in the car without any hesitation from the guy driving in front, Lin Fan glanced at the driver's seat in surprise and asked with his eyes: Don't you need to keep it a secret?

"Haha, it's okay. The confidentiality mechanism within the Special Affairs Office is different from other places. Everyone shares information, which makes it convenient for us to help each other. Everyone knows the basic situation of Xingchen, so you don't have to worry." As soon as Wu Yusen saw Lin Fan's little eyes, he knew that she was influenced by 800.

Maybe there are too many weird people in the Special Affairs Office. Although Lin Fan's transformation into a mecha is somewhat special, it is not that special among that bunch of weird people.

There are also quite a few special transformation skills, but the forms are not complete.

Transforming into a mecha... well, it's still a little different.

Many people expressed their curiosity about how the transformation between flesh and steel was achieved. They were also eager to catch a glimpse of the stars and looked forward to Lin Fan's early return.

Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

She could think about what she could and couldn't say without even meeting someone. This was a very comfortable experience for her.

"If this card could attack, wouldn't it be incredibly useful? I could just throw it during a fight, more convenient than a talisman?"

Not everyone can use the talisman, but this card seems to have no restrictions. Just throw it and it will have an attack effect.

"You're dreaming." Wu Yusen shook his head and laughed. "The card is just for storage. The attacks inside were specially created by others to save the lives of the employees in the institute. What do you think you can mass-produce it?"

When Lin Fan heard this, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.

"For example, let's say you want a Fireball card. Fireball is a nice little skill, and fire-type characters can basically create it effortlessly. But the card-making process requires him to release a fireball and the card-maker to store a fireball. Not to mention the time and energy of the psychic, the card-maker can exhaust himself to death."

"The card maker is a support skill user. Although he has special talents, his energy is limited. Each card he creates will take different amounts of time depending on the level of the sealed object, and he can't create cards continuously."

"Fireball is a minor move, used by ordinary employees. For those of us on dangerous field missions, we use major moves. They usually drain the caster's energy in one go, requiring a long recovery."

"They have their own missions and their own lives to lead. Like I said, who doesn't work hard to live a more fulfilling life? It can't be to drain themselves dry, right?"

John Woo also thought back then, why couldn't we make more of such great cards? Later, he was severely criticized by his mentor.

"So every employee in the Special Affairs Office is equipped with such a card?" Lin Fan asked in disbelief.

"Yes, all special office employees have them. However, people like the receptionist and the cleaning lady all have the lowest level of Fireball, because they don't encounter many risks in their daily lives, so that's enough."

John Woo bared his huge white teeth again, "We all jokingly call this the 'three-piece life-saving set'."

I fell out of the top 400 popularity list.

Last month, I got a bonus of 1,000 yuan for being on the list. I bought some New Year's goods. If I hadn't made the list this month, the subscriptions would probably only cover my electricity bill...

Ah, it turns out that after having tasted the sweetness, one becomes greedy.

My dears, if you have tickets, please support me. You can also give me monthly tickets or recommend them. If you don’t have tickets, please give me some interaction. Help me with my food money for next month.
