Seven hours later.
Zhong Lei made a round trip to the main base and rushed over with Dr. Ding Min and two other NPC survivors.
Ding Min was wearing a white down jacket, and almost half of her face was wrapped in a thick scarf. Her cheeks were slightly red from the cold. “I remember someone said that I would have a holiday today. ”
Fang Heng knew that he was in the wrong and smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. This is a special situation. I’ll make up for it tomorrow… Oh, no, the day after tomorrow. ”
“Hmph. Men. ” Ding Min snorted lightly, looked up at the shabby nursing home in front of her, and began to work.
“The Hila tissue sample was hidden in this place? ”
“Yes, I’ll take you there. ”
During the seven hours, Fang Heng had patiently searched the nursing home again.
Other than Wallace and Frege, there were two other humans with special abilities in the nursing home.
However, their abilities were very average and much weaker than Frege’s.
Fang Heng had tried to communicate with them but to no avail.
When the other party realized that they could not win, they directly self-destructed.
Other than that, Fang Heng did not find any other valuable clues.
Ding Min and the others followed Fang Heng back to the secret research room in the third basement.
“Eh? ” Ding Min uttered. She walked forward and carefully observed the pieces of flesh floating in the cultivation pods.
“How is it? Is there a problem with it? ”
“Yes, the live samples show traces of cultivation interference. The degree of activity is not as high as imagined. Optimistically, they can complete the transformation of two fusion Tyrant forms. ”
Ding Min began to drain the liquid in the cultivation pods, trying to put the Hila tissue samples into the metal box made by Meteorite Company.
Fang Heng cheered on the inside, “The findings are still considered good. I obtained at least two fusion Tyrant forms, and the production speed of the mutated worm body liquid mixture will be even faster in the future. ”
However, the mission line of Plan Scorpio seemed to have halted progress. It was a bit troublesome.
Thinking about it, Fang Heng raised his head and asked, “By the way, why do you think the Hila tissue sample is here? Could it be Meterorite Company’s doing? ”
Confusion briefly showed on Ding Min’s face, and she continued her investigation. “I also think it’s very strange. What I can confirm is that she was transplanted here a long time ago. As for whether it was done by Meteorite Company, I can’t be sure. ”
“Then, do you know of Meteorite Company’s Plan Scorpio? ”
“I’ve never heard of it. ” Ding Min’s expression was calm. “Meteorite Company is the largest scientific research company in the world. They have thousands of scientific research projects every year. Many of them have extremely high confidentiality, and even the Presidential Security Bureau doesn’t know about them. ”
Helpless, Fang Heng turned to look at Zhong Lei. “What intel do you have? ”
“I used the names of Wallace and Frege to search for relevant information in District 7’s paid database, and I got some information. Some newspapers reported that Wallace was detected to have superpowers and was involved in a superpowers training program of Meteorite Company. The specific name of the program is unknown. It’s probably Meteorite Company’s Plan Scorpio. ”
Zhong Lei continued, “After that, due to some special reasons, the research room was closed, and they were transferred to another research institute of Meteorite Company. I suspect that it’s related to the development of the first-generation virus. ”
Fang Heng scratched his head. The information provided by Zhong Lei was almost useless.
“If only we had been more careful and not have gotten entangled with the monsters on the fourth basement… ” Zhong Lei sighed, feeling a little guilty. It was not easy to find a big clue, but he had accidentally messed it up.
He felt that the game’s main storyline was once again at a dead end.
All the relevant personnel had died, and the relevant information had been destroyed.
What other leads did they have to work on?
“Fang Heng, what should we do? Can we no longer progress on the mission line of Plan Scorpio? ”
“No, not all hope is lost. ” Fang Heng felt that no one could give a definite answer to the question. Taking a deep breath and self-raising his morale high, he stated, “There’s still a way. ”
“Oh? There’s a way? ” Zhong Lei instantly became spirited and asked, “What’s the way? ”
In a short moment, Fang Heng thought of a plan. He calmly said, “Simple. Go to District 8. ”
Fang Heng mused, “That’s right! Let’s start again! If the storyline in District 7’s busted, we can go to District 8 to make progress! In theory, District 8 should have a similar building built by Meteorite Company for the purpose of researching Plan Scorpio. With our previous experience, we now know to be more careful when entering the nursing home in District 8. For safety reasons and to protect the research materials, we should lure out those research subjects that use spiritual energy before killing them. ”
Fang Heng rubbed his chin and thought about his next plan of action.
“T-That works? ” Zhong Lei moved his lips and did not speak for a long time after.
“Is that a game bug? ”
…
“Sir, this is a reply letter we received from our superiors. ”
“Give it to me! ” Kou Huai opened the reply letter and quickly read it.
Thud!
After reading the contents of the file, Kou Huai raised his fist and hammered the table hard.
His application to his superiors for Fang Heng to be listed as a Tier 1 wanted person and part of the anti-federation forces was once again rejected!
The reason was that there was not enough evidence. He needed more concrete evidence, preferably video evidence.
“What more evidence do they need? ! Everyone knows that Fang Heng is leader of the Scavenger Army in District 7 and part of the anti-federation forces! He’s obviously the mastermind behind it all! I even died at the hands of the fusion Tyrant form. Things are as plain as day, but they’re turning a blind eye to it? ” Kou Huai thought.
He knew that North River Heavy Industry had a hand in his application having been rejected time and time again.
“Substantial evidence… ” Kou Huai gritted his teeth.
After the failure of the attack on the Scavenger Army, the entire District 7’s federal forces were greatly weakened.
What should they do? Anger was useless.
Kou Huai quickly adjusted his emotional state and suppressed the anger in his heart. He began to think about how to deal with the crisis in front of him.
Presently, District 7 was unable to deal with the crazed zombie team.
No matter how hard he racked his brain, he could not think of a solution.
He could only choose to delay any countermeasures.
But if it continued dragging on…
Amid his distress, Kou Huai suddenly narrowed his eyes, raised his head, and looked at the Signal Corps soldier in front of him. “Who are you? ”
In front of him, the soldier’s face gradually distorted into a round face.
“Hi, Kou Huai. It’s been a while. It seems that you are enjoying yourself. ”
“Ji Qiubei! ” Kou Huai stared at him.
The real leader of the Night Owl organization rarely showed his face. In the real world, Ji Qiubei, with his special talent, had largely become the representative of the leader of the Night Owl organization.
“Don’t be nervous. I just want to talk to you. That’s all. ”
“Okay, let’s talk. ” Kou Huai’s hand was already on the alarm under the desk.
