International Originator Surveillance Organization (IISO).
Fang Zheng threw the wailing soldier to the ground and looked at them coldly. From the mouths of these people, he already knew the other party's identity and purpose.
The original gut war.
So far, the humans in this world have fought two wars with the protogastrics. The first war ended in human defeat, because humans at that time had no idea what protogastrics were, and had no way to deal with their powerful strength and vitality. Therefore, they were defeated miserably and had to retreat.
In the second war, people finally discovered the "niobium" metal that could suppress the protogastrics. Using this as a weapon, humans finally repelled the second attack of the protogastrics and successfully defended their gathering place. After that, they built a stone tablet with "niobium" metal as the core. This stone tablet can release a magnetic field that can destroy the protogastric organs and kill them, thus preventing the protogastrics from approaching humans.
But even so, it is still too much for humans to deal with protogastrums. Even if we know that "錵" metal can restrain protogastrums, the size, strength, speed and other aspects of the opponent are superior to humans. It is not so easy for ordinary humans to deal with protogastrums.
And just recently, someone made a suggestion.
That is to train the "cursed children" and have them cooperate with humans to fight against the protogastric animals. The "cursed children" have physical properties that are comparable to or even stronger than protogastric animals, and they will not lose even if they fight against protogastric animals head-on. In other words, these people are planning to let the "cursed children" be the main attackers, while humans will be responsible for assisting in the battle.
Of course, another reason for doing this is that the "cursed children" have no human rights. If ordinary children were allowed to go to the battlefield, they would definitely be condemned by public opinion. But if it was this group of "cursed children" who were unloved when alive and better dead, the public would at least have no complaints, and some people might even praise them and think, "Those rubbish can finally be put to good use."
The reason why this group of people had such an idea was naturally because they possessed enough power to suppress these "cursed children".
That is...
"Inhibitor."
Looking at the blue injections in the box beside him, Fang Zheng snorted coldly. The biggest problem for the "cursed children" is that as they grow older, the virus erosion rate in their bodies will increase, and once the erosion rate exceeds 50%, these cursed children will turn into protogastric animals. These inhibitors can help the "cursed children" slow down the erosion rate, but... that's all.
Disgusting world.
Fang Zheng turned around and left the group of soldiers crying for their parents. Since he came here, he has no good feelings towards this world. Although the magazine also said that those "cursed children" were persecuted because most of the people living in the world now were survivors of the "plundering era", and their families were killed and eaten by protogastric animals, so they hated these "cursed children".
Well said, and yet…what does this have to do with “Cursed Child”?
The gastrula that killed your relatives is right outside the stone tablet. If you are unhappy, why not just take your weapon and attack them? You are bullying a child who has no ability or will to resist to vent your hatred.
How is this different from a hybrid?
“Big Brother…”
Seeing Fang Zheng coming back, the girls gathered around him. To them, everything that happened right now happened too suddenly, so much so that the girls had no idea what to do.
"...Anyway, let's get out of here first. Those guys have already requested reinforcements, and maybe they'll send more people over. By then, the situation might become even more troublesome."
"But, but... Big Brother, where are we going?"
At this moment, hearing Fang Zheng's words, Bushicui also showed an uneasy expression, and the other girls also looked confused. For these "cursed children", this sewer is their home. Although this home is dirty and not safe at all, it is at least their home. But now, these children have lost their last shelter. And these adults are still chasing them for some reason. In this case, where can they go?
No, there's another place to go.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng raised his head and looked at the blue sky in front of him.
"…So, Brother-sama brought these children back here?"
Tilia asked curiously while watching the "cursed children" standing there in shock, like puppets, without any reaction. At the moment, the group of "cursed children" stared at everything in front of them in amazement. It was no wonder that they had just escaped from the disaster and came to such a beautiful place in the blink of an eye. For those children who were used to living in ruins, the ups and downs of the world were too exciting.
"Yes, do you have any ideas?"
"I don't have any particular objection. Even the Red World would find some humans to be their servants. On the contrary, the ones over there..."
As she spoke, Tilia glanced at Hecate who was standing on the other side of Fang Zheng. As if in response to Tilia's gaze, Hecate shook her head.
"I have no objection either. As the ruler of our 'Masquerade', the leader needs enough servants to demonstrate his power. Although these humans are still immature, they can be put to use as long as they are trained."
"but……"
Nymph, who was standing on the other side, frowned slightly.
"... According to you, Master, if the enterovirus in these 'cursed children' exceeds 50% of their erosion rate, they will turn into monsters. Master, do you have a way to solve this problem?"
"I'll ask Miluen and the others to sort this out."
Fang Zheng was full of confidence in this. The Zerg was a top-level biological civilization, and things like the Enterovirus, according to Fang Zheng's understanding, were just low-level parasites at the moment. For the Zerg, this kind of thing should not be difficult to deal with.
As for Hecate and Tilia's ideas, they were not wrong to Fang Zheng. The reason why he wanted to bring the "cursed children" to Tiandao Palace was, on the one hand, because of their circumstances, and on the other hand, because in Fang Zheng's opinion, these "cursed children" were indeed of great value.
Fang Zheng is not a saint, nor is he a Buddha who only wants to give without asking for anything in return. Just like in the Shana world, he would also consider what the Red World followers would do after arriving in the "Mirrorless World". Although he brought these girls to the Tiandao Palace, it does not mean that Fang Zheng will let them eat and wait for death here. These children will study, live and work for Fang Zheng here - he currently lacks enough subordinates, and as Tilia and Hecate said, these "cursed children" are good targets.
As the saying goes, a little bit of kindness is repaid with a big bit of kindness. If you just give alms blindly, it will only bring danger and an unhappy ending.
"Big brother, can we really live here?"
By this time, the children had also reacted. They looked excitedly at the azure sky, floating white clouds and the endless grasslands around them - these were things that could not be seen in their world, because the area outside the stone tablet had been completely occupied by protostomes. For the cursed children, such beautiful natural scenery could probably only be seen in pictures.
"certainly."
Looking at the silver-haired girl in front of him, Fang Zheng smiled.
"This is my home. You can live here... But I have to make it clear that I didn't make this decision just because I felt sorry for you. You can study and live here, but you also have to work for me... Is there a problem?"
"Of course not, big brother! We do!"
Whether it was Bushicui or the other girls around her, they were nodding vigorously.
"We can do anything. Don't underestimate us. We are very strong. If you need any heavy work, just give it to us!"
"Well……"
Looking at the excited girls in front of him, Fang Zheng didn't know what to say for a moment. He originally thought that these girls would at least have some uneasiness or doubts, but now it seems that they seem to have easily accepted their current situation.
"So……"
"Leave it to Hecate."
Tilia quickly put forward her own opinion.
"This great imperial wizard is best at admonishing those who have just arrived in the world. Now that the target has been changed to humans, there shouldn't be any problem... I think you won't be lazy, right?"
"Of course, these are the servants of the leader, I will do my best."
In response to Tilia's complaint, Hecate simply glanced at her and gave her an answer. Looking at the two people who refused to give in to each other, Fang Zheng smiled helplessly and reached out to pat their heads.
"Okay, stop arguing, Hecate, Tilia, these children are in your hands. I have already bought an apartment in the back, and they can live there. Nymph, come with me."
"Yes, Master."
Hearing Fang Zheng's order, the little angel nodded and came to Fang Zheng's side.
"Where are we going?"
"Go to the Iron-Blooded World."
Having said this, Fang Zheng's expression turned serious.
"I'm going to go see what this enterovirus is."
