The Marshal’s Wife is Wild
Chapter 299 - 298: Nightmare

Chapter 299: Chapter 298: Nightmare

He had seen her information long before.

Her life trajectory before the age of 15 was quite transparent, either staying on Capital Star or accompanying her father to the families’ compound on Hilstar.

Hilstar was the location of the Second Legion, and Qu Tong’s father once was a commanding officer of the internal garrison under Gong Yun.

Although Qu Tong was not favored by the main and second branches of the Qu Family, Qu Jianwen and Qu Jiancong would occasionally boast about having connections in the military when handling business; things couldn’t be that bad.

The most likely scenario must have been during those three years spent on Luyi Star.

But at that time, Luyi Star was barren and desolate, with underdeveloped communication, so what happened during those three years was difficult to verify.

Si Yuting searched for Qu Tong’s old photos using the intelligent brain, feeling that there was a significant difference between her past and present.

The previous Qu Tong also appeared obedient and sensible, but she felt different.

She lacked the liveliness she has now and wasn’t as flamboyant and casual as she is today.

So, did something happen on Luyi Star?

"Grand Marshal!"

Si Yuting’s thoughts were interrupted by Jiang Zhou.

Seeing Jiang Zhou rush in flusteredly, Si Yuting’s slightly furrowed eyebrows revealed a hint of tension as he stood up from his seat.

"Boss, take a look at this!"

Jiang Zhou’s expression was very solemn, faintly carrying an excitement, as he urgently handed over the topmost report to Si Yuting.

Si Yuting took it and froze.

Even his usually composed eyes flashed with obvious shock as he looked at Jiang Zhou.

Jiang Zhou swallowed and nodded, "During the check, we took the lady’s blood sample, and I retested it; the data is correct."

"How long have the results been out?"

Si Yuting’s voice carried a deep chill, making Jiang Zhou jump, "Four...about four or five minutes...Grand Marshal, where are you going?"

Before he could finish, Si Yuting had already hurried out.

Jiang Zhou followed and arrived at the main treatment room.

Si Yuting was logging into the diagnostic device’s backend with iris authorization.

Jiang Zhou just stared dumbfounded as his Grand Marshal hacked into the main brain and deleted the lady’s updated news from the database.

At that moment, the on-duty staff member at the gene bank thought he saw something wrong.

After rubbing his eyes and looking again, indeed, he had been mistaken; there hadn’t been a Fertility Value of 100 for thousands of years.

He did not dwell much on this minor episode.

Having done all this, Si Yuting then turned to Jiang Zhou and warned, "Don’t reveal the lady’s test results to anyone, you know how serious this is. Copy the remaining data and we’ll process it back on Abel Star."

Jiang Zhou saluted militarily, "Understood."

Actually, it pained him inside, unknowingly he had come to know many secrets, all of which he couldn’t share.

"Grand Marshal, I remember the lady’s previous Fertility Value was only 20." Jiang Zhou couldn’t help asking.

Si Yuting accessed the previous test reports of Qu Tong from the hacked database, followed by a long silence...

Clearly, the Grand Marshal couldn’t provide an answer either.

Jiang Zhou had been shocked several times in just one day, his mind and body exhausted, he left to digest it all.

Si Yuting returned to Qu Tong’s room.

But his mood could no longer be calmed.

Clutching the test report in his hand, he gazed at Qu Tong’s porcelain-like visage for a long while, lost in thought.

He knew what this meant.

It meant that Qu Tong could have her own baby with anyone she married, maybe even two or three or many more.

Yet being with herself was something that could never be possible.

All night long, Si Yuting’s brow had not relaxed.

The Empire War God, usually resolute and efficient in planning, also experienced moments of hesitation and bewildered confusion.

It wasn’t until Cheng Feng contacted the medical room that Si Yuting rubbed his brow and stood up to leave the medical room.

Before leaving, he did not forget to call Jiang Zhou over.

At the door, Butler Chi handed a new Light Brain and chip to Si Yuting.

The previous Light Brain had been accidentally damaged by him during a Mental Outburst.

"Your Highness, you don’t look very well, shall we postpone it until the afternoon?" Butler Chi looked at his lord’s face and expressed his concern.

"No need," Si Yuting waved his hand, took the Light Brain, entered Gong Yun’s Light Brain number, and sent a message.

[Arriving in 40 minutes.]

Cheng Feng had already collaborated with the officials to publish the news that his Mental Outburst was over, and he needed to make an appearance today.

After boarding the flyer and setting the autopilot, Si Yuting reopened the Light Brain and hesitated before entering Qu Tong’s Light Brain number again, changing the note to a new one.

His Light Brain chip was of an encrypted level. If damaged, it would erase its memory, and remaking it would take about a week. Recovery of cache also required authorization from the central intelligent brain.

For now, he could only use an unauthorized, standard chip.

Si Yuting repeated his previous actions, adding the primary contacts to the address book again. Since he was using the previous Light Brain number, he didn’t need to send friend requests again, but all chat histories were gone.

Si Yuting was still very busy, with too many things awaiting his attention.

But except for the occasions when his presence was absolutely necessary, he worked from Yuelan Bay at other times.

Qu Tong had also been moved to a more comfortable large bed, but did not sleep peacefully.

In her dreams, Qu Tong returned to the bloody past she least wanted to remember.

Distant pain struck her heart, spreading bone-chilling coldness to her limbs, as vivid as reality.

The confined laboratory, the crowded space, the disorderly scents, the cold laughter.

For ten years since she could remember, she had been detained in a laboratory by the black industry chain, subjected to human experiments.

It wasn’t just her, but ten thousands of children who were continually dying and being replaced.

Together with them, she endured various tortures, all aimed at stimulating human limits and awakening Special Abilities.

She was unfortunate yet fortunate.

Out of hundreds of experiments, she persisted to the end.

In the last electric shock session, amid a crowd’s cheer, her black hair turned completely white, green vines viciously spread around, and she curled up on the ground, her exposed shoulders and arms covered with green patterns, fluorescence flowing as if alive.

Her body still twitching, she didn’t remember how many innocent children died around her, relying merely on her faint will to resist the overwhelming pain.

This was not the end.

What awaited her next was still various research.

ml of blood drawn daily made her dizzy and vomit, often groggy.

Even her hair was shaved off for research purposes.

But they always found ways to cling to her life.

Her mouth was filled with all kinds of unknown liquid food, her arms were bruised so badly no patch of good flesh could be seen.

In that era, the word Special Ability was still a myth to most people, and the human body was fragile.

He had seen a young boy who awakened a fire-related Special Ability but couldn’t withstand it, burning himself alive.

But later, they used her for experiments and developed an Elixir that could enhance a physique enough to endure the awakening of Special Abilities. Perhaps only one in a thousand survived.

Without waiting for the Elixir to continue being perfected, the black industry chain was destroyed by the national special police force.
