Chapter 1190: 985
A commotion came from the other end of the phone, seemingly the sounds of tussling.
"I already warned you."
"I’m doing it for a scientific experiment!"
"Then pinch yourself!"
"I haven’t mutated!"
"Don’t believe it? Inject yourself too!"
...
The Qi He trio exchanged glances. According to the intelligence currently held by the foundation, Medea, the former external affairs director of Cloud Biological Pharmaceutical who disappeared, was highly likely to have joined a secret division related to the Void; the attack incident in the Sixth Neutral Country involving Wild Bone and the disappearance of Dr. Bai Zhu also seemed connected to the Void.
That included entities like the Review Meeting, which could make every department of the United Government on edge, existing in their imagination as the ultimate antagonist force, yet from the situation overheard on the phone, this "antagonist force" seemed much more relaxed and pleasant than they imagined.
Soon, the "battle" on the other end of the phone seemed to have concluded. Medea managed to reconnect, though they could still hear a muffled "mmm" sound over the speakerphone as if someone’s mouth was blocked by something.
There were many similar cases, including quite a few names familiar to Song Lan.
For example, Mr. Doug who worked in the Law Enforcers department in District 17; in his recent operations, he was often unsuccessful, either breaking an arm or a few ribs. Even though these injuries were nothing for a special operations department captain, they earned him the playful nickname of "Captain Fracture" among his colleagues.
The nutritional injections induced mutations that gave Captain Doug a new lease on life.
Now, Captain Doug’s skeletal structure was as solid as alloy, and he had even grown a kirin arm. This third arm enabled him during missions to carry a rotary machine gun single-handedly, bringing a firepower suppression equivalent to an elite squad to criminals.
"Anyway, this also answers one of my doubts. When we locked up Ge Fu, he always emphasized that the mutations in his body were completely normal, and never once treated me and Bai Zhu as oddities."
Having successfully subdued Bai Zhu, Medea was in high spirits, "Even if the body doesn’t undergo changes, they’ll still categorize it as a form of mutation; thereby, in the short term, we shouldn’t see any turmoil where mutants hunt normal people."
"If we disregard Bai Zhu’s earlier attempt to twist off my finger, these mutations don’t bring about the traditional concepts of losing sanity or manic behaviors. Unlike those of the Lunar Eclipse Sect once corrupted by the will of the Moon God, they maintain clear cognition and even immerse themselves in meticulous research work,"
In this case, Ge Fu was the best example.
After growing a third eye, his work not only remained unaffected but improved significantly, with a notable increase in the production efficiency of insect cybernetic bodies.
"This might be related to the Devourer’s consciousness."
Lu Xiang speculated.
This was an outcome already achieved in their research on the Void; it proved that with correct guidance, the Devourer’s will not only doesn’t cause loss of reason but could also treat cybernetic mental illness—an issue even the company currently couldn’t solve.
Old Sa and other Shadow Guards members were consistently stable; they could live like normal people when not needed.
"You just mentioned that Ge Fu established a telepathic link with the Devourer half an hour after the mutation occurred."
"Exactly, in this event, the Devourer acted like a signal receptor, theoretically not only could Ge Fu hear what comes through the receiver, but he could also listen directly to the innermost thoughts of others."
"Theoretically?"
"Our Devourer is a bit special, remember it stipulated that only those with a master’s degree or higher working on related research or core employees of the landfill site were allowed to join in on the group chat?"
The Devourer hoped to facilitate meaningful academic discussions through consciousness links.
Under this regulation, other people in District 17 were blocked instantly after connecting due to insufficient academic qualifications.
"So, according to this theory, Ge Fu should be able to hear Dr. Bai Zhu’s innermost thoughts now?"
"Indeed, let me ask...hmm? What did you say? Bai Zhu told me not to be too happy, she’ll eventually drug my dinner and then handcuff and gag me..."
The communication was cut off.
Silence gave people more space to imagine.
Qi He held his forehead.
Theoretically, they were now facing a global mutation crisis; driven by the biopharmaceutical company, nutritional injections had already spread to every corner of the world, except for those who still resisted all actions of the company, it had long since become a part of most people’s lives.
But why now, his focus was entirely on what was about to happen between Medea and Bai Zhu, in comparison, seeming to put the global crisis on hold.
This irresistible itch was like a home theatre system breaking down just as a movie reached its climax.
"Telepathic link."
Fortunately, among them was Lu Xiang, unaffected by external changes, who always kept her focus on the main issue. She recalled the information mentioned by RT6, which included the reasons why RT1 and the Machine Mother went their separate ways after the dark ages.
