The corresponding stimulus came partly from Tang Li's own terrible condition, as well as that of his equipment, and partly from a string of illegal operations not long ago that had exceeded the prescribed authority of Cybernetics equipment.
With the Veil of Silence, Ronan constructed, around Tang Li's Form and Spirit Framework, a "Nightmare-Transformed Perfect Body" as he currently understood it, supporting and carrying out the entire process of Dream Relay. During this time, even the Cybernetics equipment implanted in Tang Li had been thoroughly deceived and instead became a powerful source of support.
Of course, New Wildfire had also provided technical support.
Once the Veil of Silence was removed, the disguise unraveled along with it. The Cybernetics implanted in Tang Li immediately let out a heartbroken wail at having been deceived, while also serving as a locator and calling for the relevant detection systems to take notice.
The search, having just shifted its focus, would soon circle back.
That no longer mattered.
As the Veil of Silence separated, Tang Li's appearance returned, yet it seemed unable to piece itself back together.
A large amount of blood had stained the Veil of Silence, but could not adhere to it and quickly slid off.
Tang Li's face and limbs alike were on the verge of twisting and collapsing. Even the larger fragments that remained were covered in cracks, his entire fleshly body teetering on the edge of disintegration. Yet at the same time, the blood that had already dripped away, as well as the muscles, blood vessels, and nerves twitching across his body, had entered a semi-void state.
Sunlight filtered through gaps in the forest, stirring rings of dazzling color across them.
Tang Li, who could now perhaps be called "Temporary Carrier Three," had become a relatively successful Dual Interference Node.
