Fang Ning relayed the functions of the all-purpose bacteria to the Biosphere Plan personnel.
Everyone was surprised and pleased to hear about this. At last, someone proposed a solution to the many problems that had troubled them for so long. An all-purpose bacteria could handle the various tasks of multiple living beings within the food chain.
Despite knowing that the dark figure who showed up in the large greenhouse was the body double of the God of Plagues from the Upper Realm and his sole purpose was to assist them, no one dared to approach the deity, let alone speak to him.
After all, he was a god.
Although there was a slight difference between this and legends, stealing a few glances posed no problem. However, everyone understood whose effort it was.
The Eastern Taoist priest who got killed in that viral video last time met his fate because he spied on the gods.
Moreover, due to the God of Plagues’ previous act of unleashing a global crisis, it was natural that many people wanted to avoid him.
It was impossible for gods and humans to share an equal stance in communication.
This was another valid reason for them to invite Vigilante A over. Only this just and righteous hero had the skill and ability to communicate with these high and mighty deities.
That was the distinction between position and power. Whatever mattered that could have been solved through a simple discussion might possibly result in a great divide. Many such cases have occurred throughout the history of humanity.
Many innocent people were framed and harmed. Their possessions were taken away and their family members were executed.
Dr. Edison was filled with gratitude. He exclaimed, “It’s so fortunate that you’re here, Venerable One, or else we would have to use up more manpower. This might of the deities is truly magnificent. With our current technology, I’m not sure how long it will take to achieve a similar result, and we might even reach a technological bottleneck.”
“True, he’s a god after all.” A Chinese employee fawned. “It’s exactly like in a novel, where a god time-travels to the modern world.”
Great, someone who shared the same interest. Apparently, there were lots of people who read novels.
Fang Ning nodded his head and waved his hand. “It was just an easy task, so there’s no need to oblige. You’re all bright scientists, once that all-purpose bacteria has been created, don’t underestimate yourselves. Instead, research it thoroughly, find explanations for it using the latest scientific theories and turn it to our own technology.”
“Venerable One, you’re right. I believe everyone has mentally prepared themselves to study a godly creation.” Dr. Anderson’s wrinkled face lit up.
The rest of the employees were equally excited. An entirely new creation had shown up and it was confirmed to be a godly creation. In a video game, it was a godly weapon; In literary works, it was a godly remnant.
“Marvelous. Maintain this morale, you’re all of humanity’s hope.” Fang Ning encouraged them.
Expressions of euphoria lined everyone’s faces.
They were prestigious people, but that was in the past. In this current Era of Mystery, a billionaire who was once influential could lose his life any time.
Now, under this hero’s watch, society was safer and people could sleep more peacefully.
Fang Ning scanned the area and felt a surge of satisfaction. He wanted to add something, but he felt uncomfortable and nearly sneezed.
He kept his composure, gestured his hand and announced. “I’ve some matters to attend to, so I shall excuse myself. If you face any problems, just contact my butler directly.”
The people nodded their heads in agreement.
“Sir System, please leave at once. There seems to be something wrong with my body.” Fang Ning ordered.
“There’s nothing with your body, but your brain…” Sir System nagged. It then seized Fang Ning’s body and departed.
The rest of the people looked at Vigilante A who had just vanished and were in awe. This ability was the mark of a deity…
…
Fang Ning scrambled into the System Space. His head hurt and he felt light-headed. Consequently, he did not want to talk and went to sleep in the lounge.
“Hmph, you’re still like that….” Sir System gave Fang Ning a stern look.
“Cut it out, my head really hurts. I’ll talk to you again after I’ve woken up.” Fang Ning felt that his entire soul had a sore and painful sensation. He was familiar with this sensation, which was the same feeling he had when he was down with severe flu.
Once upon a time, he often had flu and he normally had it once each year. In all the thirty plus years of his life, his most vivid memory of illnesses was flu and fever. It seemed normal, but when the illness acted up, it meant headache, sore throat and fatigue. He could not sleep even if he wanted to due to the headache.
Luckily, he could still fall asleep now. He hoped that he would feel better after waking up.
Despite having other hunches, his head hurt too much for him to ponder over it.
It was a good thing that Sir System was already used to his kind of behavior, thus it did not bother him which gave him a moment’s peace.
…
It was already 10 am in the morning on the second day, but Fang Ning had not woken up.
As soon as he had the nightmare and decided to push himself, he always woke up at 6 am.
“Hey, that’s a bit too much of you.” Sir System reprimanded. “Last time, when you didn’t stay up late, you would normally wake up at 8 something to play…”
“Ah, what is it? Don’t nag at me, I feel so dizzy. Something… Something’s wrong…” Fang Ning forced out a few phrases from his mouth and fell into sleep again.
“Oh, I’ll inspect you at once.” Sir System heard that and immediately got to work. “You should’ve told me earlier. You fell asleep so quickly yesterday, I didn’t want to bother you with my inspection.”
Sir System’s words fell on deaf ears. Fang Ning’s current state of mind was like a huge whirlpool that spun endlessly. The more it spun, the dizzier he felt. The pain and fatigue intensified.
System Notification: [The System has begun to inspect the Host’s mental state.
The Host’s soul has entered a state of an unknown viral infection with a debuff: Severe flu. The System has consumed 1,000,000 experience points and 10 slots of Aggro Bars. The Esoteric Skill of “True Bodhi Tactics”—— Mind Easing Spell —— has been activated.
The Host’s debuff has been eliminated.
The Host’s soul has been restored.
]
“Ugh, this recovery’s a bit too soon…” Fang Ning hauled himself up reluctantly from the wide, soft bed.
“What? Do you still want to repeat your past mistakes and revert to your old ways?” Sir System sneered.
Fang Ning felt wronged. “Do you really think I’m that kind of person? Since I’ve already made up my mind, I’ll talk about it again once I’ve completed my objective. I wasn’t lazy, but I was attacked.”
“Mm, although that’s the truth, I still feel that you take things for granted instead of fortifying your body’s immune system. You’re already a Lake-level powerhouse and have consumed so many of my high-level pills. This sort of viral infection shouldn’t take effect that quickly. Your mental resilience isn’t strong enough, that’s why this weakness was exploited. I’ll give you a few more special pills for the cultivation of the heart. After consuming them, you won’t get attacked that easily. They taste a bit bitter, but bitter medicine is often good for you.” Sir System grinned.
“Eh, what kind of tone is that? I don’t need your medicine, I can heal myself slowly.” Fang Ning rejected the offer flatly. Sir System was surely going to trick him again with that sort of tone.
“No, Dalang, it’s time for your medicine…” 1
