Chapter 894 - 467: The Big Shot Holds Grudges, Global Great Flood_2
The wife sighed, "To be honest, the pace of technological advancement is so rapid now, I feel like I’m living in a sci-fi movie."
Wen Zehan boldly predicted, "This is just the beginning. In the future, even more sci-fi-like things will emerge."
As a Controller of Star Formation, he had access to a wealth of confidential information, and thus knew that the technological explosion of Great Xia was merely a start, far from being over.
The wife had no doubt, "I think so too."
She picked up a slice of apple, first popping it into her husband’s mouth, then took another slice for herself and suddenly suggested, "Old Wen, why don’t we have another child? This would be in response to the country’s call."
Wen Zehan nearly choked, "I’m 52 this year, and you’re 50. What nonsense are you talking about?"
This senior researcher couldn’t believe the idea of himself becoming a late bloomer, holding a little son or daughter at his age.
The wife did not answer, turning her head to the Xue Wu domestic robot, "Xiaobai, do we still have the possibility of having children?"
Xue Wu immediately responded, "According to the current medical standards, with some medicinal regulation and a period of exercise, it’s entirely possible to conceive at 50."
It also provided statistics: "According to information released by the Xia Medical General Administration, from January to last month, there were over 180,000 cases of women aged 50 to 55 giving birth to healthy babies, with an estimated annual total of 320,000 cases."
The wife retorted, "Do you still think I’m talking nonsense?"
Wen Zehan was speechless.
Just then.
The starlight flickered briefly.
Wen Zehan’s expression changed, "There’s a situation in the Antai Kingdom."
The wife originally intended to press her husband into agreeing, but upon seeing him busy with important matters, she reluctantly left the study.
Xue Wu displayed a high level of intelligence, sliding out and considerately closing the study door.
Wen Zehan connected to the starlight with his Spiritual Power, immediately discovering something unusual in the Antai Palace.
He quickly conducted a Satellite Scan, his expression changing: "Mr. Ghost, I’ve discovered that some Antai people within the palace seem to have been contaminated with something strange."
This senior researcher only detected a trace, but did not know specifically what it was.
Yang Fan’s calm voice came through, "Yes."
Wen Zehan immediately understood that Mr. Ghost must know the real situation within the palace, perhaps this was a show orchestrated by the big boss himself.
Yang Fan continued, "Let me show you something."
The starlight flickered.
Wen Zehan immediately saw a network composed of faint silver lines, and he attempted to touch one of the silver lines with his Spiritual Power.
From a peculiar perspective, he "saw" a figure.
He also learned the identity of the other person, a servant in the palace, with the name — Weinei.
The silver line clearly displayed that inside Weinei’s brain, there was a monster with over a dozen tentacles.
The most terrifying aspect was that a third of Weinei’s brain had already been consumed by the tentacle monster, yet he appeared completely unaffected.
Wen Zehan was considerably shocked, "Mr. Ghost, what’s going on here?"
Yang Fan replied calmly, "Hidden within the palace is a ’Green Sea Mother Insect,’ and the offspring it produces are called ’Green Devil Insects.’
"The Green Devil Insects have a very formidable ability; they can infiltrate the body of the target like a liquid, with many targets not even noticing.
"The Green Devil Insects parasitize the target’s brain, consuming part of it, and replacing the consumed functions, achieving a certain degree of coexistence with the target.
"All creatures parasitized by the Green Devil Insects become the most loyal servants of the Green Sea Mother Insect.
"This time, the infestation in Guli Man by the Green Sea Insect Swarm is entirely under the command of the Green Sea Mother Insect."
In the Dream Realm.
The Green Sea Mother Insect was the mastermind behind the death of over 8 million Antai People.
Originally, after the fall of Guli Man, the Antai military did not remain inactive; instead, they deployed troops to set up defenses in surrounding cities.
But the Green Sea Mother Insect controlled a large number of Antai People through the Green Devil Insects, then ordered the parasitic puppets to infiltrate surrounding cities to spread the Green Devil Insects, effortlessly dismantling the defenses from within.
Later, various great nations intervened in the insect swarm catastrophe, decisively dropping the Heping Bullet to eliminate the main force of the swarm, discovering the Green Devil Insects within the brains of the parasitic puppets, thereby deducing the existence of the mother body.
Various countries deployed over 3,000 Superpower Users to search for the mother body’s traces, paying a significant price, resulting in the deaths of over 400 Superpower Users before finally solving the Green Sea Mother Insect.
The Green Sea Mother Insect in the Dream Realm left a deeply profound impression on Yang Fan.
At this moment.
Wen Zehan keenly realized that the appearance of the Green Sea Mother Insect in the Antai Palace was probably not a random event; it was highly likely that Mr. Ghost intentionally forced the mother to hide in the palace.
With the big boss’s strength, achieving this wouldn’t be difficult.
As long as the insect monsters were constantly struck elsewhere in the city, sparing the palace and its surroundings.
In addition, Wen Zehan realized another thing: "The big boss’s silver line network is definitely an incredibly powerful search capability."
Previously, the Satellite Star Formation had scanned the Antai Palace more than once but failed to detect the hidden Green Sea Mother Insect, yet Mr. Ghost had the power to directly lock onto the mother.
A few seconds passed.
Yang Fan then said, "Wait a few more minutes before publicizing the information on the Green Sea Mother Insect to other countries in the Pioneer Alliance."
Wen Zehan immediately responded, "Understood!"
He instantly understood that his guess was completely correct; indeed, it was the big boss who secretly used his methods to force the mother insect into the palace.
