It was the first time that everyone heard this term, and they couldn't help but express their doubts.

Xi Si pulled down his sleeves to cover the blood vessels and explained: "You probably don't know about this virus yet. I was infected after being injured in a battle with an alien beast. In fact, the probability of infection is not high. I was just too 'lucky'."

Li Tong pondered for a moment and asked, "What will happen if I get infected? Will I definitely get cancer?"

Li Tong has never been good at reading the atmosphere, and she doesn't care whether the question will offend Xisite.

Ping An reached out and tugged at the corner of her clothes, warning her with his eyes not to talk too much.

Hester didn't seem to care much. He replied, "No, it's just that after infection, the microscopic world of the body will be reconstructed. Some people will become stronger, while others will become diseased. Generally speaking, the chance of disease is relatively high. After all, the physique of alien beasts is much stronger than that of humans. Once their viruses enter the human body, they will take root in the human body and attack weak cells, which is a fatal blow to the human body."

He spoke a long sentence and couldn't help coughing.

The assistant at the side handed him a thermos cup containing black liquid medicine.

Hester took a sip and recovered his breath.

With a bitter taste in his mouth, he continued, "Fortunately, I have someone who can take over... Even if the old man dies, he won't have to nag the young people..."

"Admiral!" The assistant gave him a reproachful look, "Please don't say anything unlucky!"

Hester chuckled: "Why are you also learning the superstitions of the old world?"

He put down the cup and looked out the window.

Upon closer inspection, there was a look of deep resentment in his eyes.

He seemed to be joking, but also seemed to be lost in the swamp of memory: "It would be great if good deeds were rewarded and evil deeds were punished in this world... Unfortunately, in this world, good people never live long, and evil deeds last for thousands of years. If I had known this, I would have become an evil deed."

The assistant shook his head and sighed. Even now, Heath still liked to joke.

She also felt that the world was unfair. Admiral Hist had saved so many lives, but during an operation he was backstabbed by his teammates, leaving him alone to face a large number of alien beasts.

In that battle, not only was Hist seriously injured, but his war beast also died while protecting him.

Since then, although Hester looked the same as before, as his assistant, she could clearly feel his changes.

On the surface, Hester was still the gentle and elegant man, but he spent more and more time sitting in a daze.

Moreover, due to being infected with the alien beast virus, his health was deteriorating day by day, and he often needed to take a break before continuing when presiding over a meeting.

She even occasionally heard some arrogant young people discussing behind her back that Hester's frail body was not suitable for this position and asked when he would step down and let others take over.

Once she overheard it, the blood in her body boiled and rushed to her head. She wanted to go out and teach these young people who gossiped behind her back a lesson.

But before she took a step, Hister behind her stopped her and just shook his head at her.

The assistant has been with Hester for more than ten years. She feels unfair for Hester, but sometimes fate plays tricks on him.

In Admiral Hist's last days, she hoped to be by his side and accompany him on his final journey.

Hester withdrew his gaze and pulled himself out of his memories. Seeing that the atmosphere was depressing, he took the initiative to break the silence.

"Don't worry, you are all excellent children. You will be able to protect yourselves on the battlefield in the future."

He looked at Qin Jiu with a much softer look in his eyes: "Don't worry, Bai Xue protected you very well. You were not harmed by the alien beast and you will not be infected with the virus. Bai Xue is an S-level war beast, and its genes are much stronger than ordinary alien beasts. It will not be infected. Its healing ability is also strong. I have checked it out, it's fine, don't worry."

Xisite's words did calm Qin Jiu's emotions, and she was no longer as worried and irritable as she was at the beginning.

I hope Bai Xue can recover before returning to Xinghuang...

Mr. Fei gripped the armrest of the chair, veins popping out on the back of his hands, and his heavy breathing reached everyone's ears like a life-threatening alarm.

No one present had ever seen Mr. Fei so angry. Everyone felt insecure and lowered their heads, not daring to breathe.

A person rushed in from outside the door, breaking the tense atmosphere inside, and Mr. Fei's eyes, which had been closed, slowly opened.

The visitor seemed unaffected by the atmosphere and walked quickly towards Mr. Fei.

The other people standing in the room were curious, but they didn't dare to look up and could only peek out of the corner of their eyes.

The visitor ignored the others, stood in front of Mr. Fei, bowed respectfully, and said, "Mr. Fei, Shadow's wounds have all been treated. He is not in danger of death and is now sleeping and recuperating."

Finally hearing something gratifying, Mr. Fei nodded and said calmly: "Okay, you continue to treat Shadow, don't let it get into trouble, do you hear me?"

"I understand." He said, nodded and said goodbye to Mr. Fei, then left in a hurry.

The sound of the door closing was heard and everyone started to get nervous again.

Mr. Fei's eyes swept across everyone. He let out a long breath and said in a slightly impatient tone, "Tell me, what did you do and what results did you get?"

One of the men in black robes said cautiously: "We have followed Mr. Fei's instructions and destroyed Subject No. 13, but his organs have disappeared..."

Mr. Fei nodded without much reaction.

This is an expected result.

Seeing that Mr. Fei was not angry, the man in black robe boldly continued, "We have also successfully obtained Dr. Arnold's experimental data and are working on decrypting it."

"Ah."

"But..." The man in black robe faced Mr. Fei's sharp gaze and continued, "We have reached the upper limit of the number of times we can use our artificial wormhole. It will probably take a long time before we can use it again..."

Mr. Fei nodded anyway, thinking that at least this trip was not in vain.

With such a big commotion, the Federation will definitely strengthen its defenses, so it is not suitable to go out in the short term.

However, artificial wormholes are consumables and will break down sooner or later, so he is not surprised.

The tasks assigned to them were completed quite well.

The biggest loss of this trip was that he failed to bring Qin Jiu back.

Even because of the failure of this thing, all the joy of other successes was washed away.

Qin Jiu has alien beast genes in her blood, and she is a chosen experimental subject.

In order to prove that the blood report was correct in the shortest possible time, he even took the risk of damaging the experimental materials and used diluted alien animal toxin bullets.

Qin Jiu did not disappoint him, she reacted to the poison.

No one knows why Qin Jiu has the genes of an alien beast but is not genetically optimized like other humans, but lives like a normal person.

He was eager to know what the difference was between her and the experimental subjects he had created himself.

And her unique talent for taming beasts reminded him of an old friend and his war beast...

I haven't seen him for more than 20 years. I don't know if he is doing well?
