Chapter 60: Deviation is what kind of magic potion was given to each of you...

There were many pieces of combat mecha scattered on the surface of Mars. Fortunately, the area was vast and sparsely populated, so no residents were injured, they were just frightened.

Robots working for the Federation Army began to clean up the battlefield, and injured Alpha soldiers were carried onto treatment stretchers by field medics.

Xu Tianyang crawled out of the dark green mecha covered in dust and dirt. He covered his injured and bleeding arm and saw Li Ran and Cheng Zhi in the thick smoke.

Li Ran had a bruise on his head, and Cheng Zhi was dragging his injured leg. The two were standing, supporting each other, and waving their arms vigorously towards Xu Tianyang.

"Xu Tianyang!"

"What are you laughing at? Come over here!"

Xu Tianyang's mouth grinned even wider, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he ran quickly towards Cheng Zhi and Li Ran.

The three of them traveled together, just as they had done on Planet Two.

"You've grown a lot stronger, Huoyao Star's nutritional supplements are made of protein powder!"

Li Ran's tone was still so inappropriate. He reached out and patted Xu Tianyang's uninjured arm and laughed.

The raid initiated by the Andromeda Galaxy has ended, and the post-war meeting has begun at the Mars Federation Military Base.

"Athena, take a count of the casualties."

Athena's virtual image appeared in the command center and nodded slightly to Colonel Claude.

After talking about the raid, Admiral Huo looked at Colonel Claude and said, "You should go back and rest first."

Claude's eyes moved back and forth between the two Alphas of the Huo family. He put on the detection bracelet handed to him by the robot again, and then slowly stood up.

The door of the command center was gently closed, leaving enough space for Admiral Huo and Colonel Huo.

Huo Yingzhan sat in the main seat, still with his back to Huo Yubai, and asked, "The commander is temporarily dismissed. Is this what the federal military taught you?"

Colonel Huo lowered his eyes and did not defend himself.

"Huo Yubai, you disappoint me so much."

The young Alpha raised his eyes slightly and asked, "How can we not disappoint Admiral Huo?"

"I will do whatever you say, just like an ignorant puppet, right?"

Huo Yingzhan glanced at him coldly, and was silent for a while, but he did not soften his attitude and said, "When you can stand on your own, you will be qualified to say such words to me."

"If I hadn't stopped you, would you have chased the enemy mecha and died?"

Hearing this, Huo Yubai pursed his lips. His action was indeed not very rational, but Ji He was still there.

His sweetheart is there.

He couldn't calm down.

"Since he has betrayed you, you might as well give up on this idea."

Colonel Huo frowned slightly, stood up, and said, "He won't."

"I believe him."

"And the things he said on the battlefield..."

Huo Yingzhan turned around, suddenly thinking of something, pursed his lips, his eyes flickered, and he said sarcastically: "You really look like..."

The man seemed to realize what he was about to say and stopped talking.

At this moment, someone was knocking on the door of the command center.

"report!"

"Come in."

The tense atmosphere between the two was slightly broken by Cheng Zhi. Alpha saluted them both and shouted, "Admiral Huo, Colonel Huo."

Cheng Zhi's legs were sprayed with medicine and bandaged, and now they are not as painful as they were at the beginning, but he has some difficulty in moving.

"I want to report something."

Huo Yingzhan closed his eyes, seemed a little tired, and said lightly: "Speak."

"What Instructor Ji said on the battlefield was very similar to what he said during the field training."

Colonel Huo on the side nodded, he thought the same thing.

Although he was overwhelmed by the joy of reunion, he would never believe that Ji He would betray the Federation.

How could such a righteous and strong person easily stand on Michael's side?

Ji He chose to say the same words as those he had said during the loyalty test. It must be that he had unfinished business and could not return to the Federal Army for the time being.

"I think this is the instructor's hint that he didn't really betray us."

The words that Cheng Zhi blurted out at this moment coincided exactly with Huo Yubai's thoughts.

"You think?"

General Huo did not think Cheng Zhi's opinion was important, and he would not take risks because of the conjecture of an ordinary corporal.

There was another knock on the door, and two injured Alpha soldiers came in and said, "I think so too."

"The instructor will not betray me."

Admiral Huo had a dark face, and was obviously not convinced. He turned to look at Huo Yubai and asked, "Did you let them say that?"

Colonel Huo just shook his head and said coldly: "No."

"Just a Beta."

"I gave you all some kind of magic potion."

"Admiral." Cheng Zhigang said two words, but before he could continue, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Huo Yingzhan and lowered his head.

Admiral Huo frowned, ignored the voices behind him and strode out of the command room.

He walked all the way to Claude's solitary ward, where he was wearing a bite arrester and looked like a large, wolfish dog.

Huo Yingzhan leaned against the door frame and knocked on the smart door lock twice with his finger joints.

The door lock recognized the other party's identity as an admiral, temporarily lifted the pheromone ban, and let the person in.

"Did you have an argument with someone again?" Colonel Claude raised his eyebrows.

Admiral Huo pursed his lips, put his hand on the back of the chair, and said, "He is so much like his father."

"I only trust people I shouldn't trust."

Claude knew what the other party was talking about and asked, "You still can't get over that?"

Huo Yingzhan lowered his eyes. Everyone thought that he looked down on Huo Yubai's mother's background and repeatedly made things difficult for her. Not only did he drive his son away, but he was also going to drive his grandson crazy.

This is true, but there is a deviation.

He did not accept the Beta for another reason that was unknown to outsiders.

"Colonel Huo still doesn't know who his mother is..."

Huo Yingzhan shook his head. He would never let Huo Yubai know that his mother was a double spy.

"So he blames you for these things, because Ji He blames you, you don't intend to explain it clearly?"

Admiral Huo coughed twice and replied coldly, "I do have my reasons for this."

"He can blame anyone he wants, but does he really want me to beg him?"

Huo Yingzhan took out the pheromone-boosting injection from his arms and injected himself with it skillfully.

The image of Alpha is always serious and powerful, but many people forget that he is also a human being who will grow old, become weak, and become unable to do things.

Claude raised his eyes and looked at Huo Yingzhan. The wrinkles on Alpha's face seemed to be deeper than before, like ravines in mountains and rivers.

This pillar of support for the federal military will one day be corroded and rusted by time.

"If I had really been strongly against their marriage, perhaps everything that happened later would not have happened."

Huo Yingzhan suddenly felt that he was really old and actually began to believe in the "what if" thing.

"In fact, before the aircraft accident, she promised not to do anything that would harm federal interests, and all the items that might be found have been destroyed."

"I have thought about accepting her in my heart, but it just happened to be at this moment..."

Colonel Claude naturally knew about this. The fact that a major general of the Federation left the Army just like that caused quite a stir at the time.

As an insider of the spy incident, Claude felt that Huo Yingzhan was actually quite unlucky.

"The future of the Huo family rests on Huo Yubai. How can I watch him repeat his father's fate?"

Claude stretched out his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose. He could not judge whether these things were right or wrong. He just advised: "Everyone has his own destiny. Why force it?"

News of the fierce battle on Mars spread quickly to all the planets under the jurisdiction of the Federation.

Overnight, Ji He's name suddenly changed from a military martyr to a traitor who was hated by everyone.

"Have you heard? A former Confederate officer has defected."

"What's so strange about this? I thought the Ministry of Health had finally developed a vaccine."

"If it really came out so quickly, you wouldn't dare to fight."

Zhong Wenxi spent seven or eight days in the pheromone research center and finally found active molecules suspected to be antibodies in Huo Yubai's serum sample.

"The Capital Star's top model worker, it's time for you to take a break."

Ascle brought nutritional supplements and was distributing them to the experimenters. The last one in his hand was for Dr. Zhong.

"Doctor, as long as this antibody is successful, it can greatly reduce the mortality and severity of virus X."

Zhong Wenxi was in an unprecedented state of excitement and seemed to feel no hunger at all.

"We can save all of humanity."

Ascle said nothing, but returned to the research group he led and took out an inconspicuous experimental reagent from the intelligent refrigerator of the independent experiment.

"Save all mankind?"

The smile on Ascle's lips slowly froze, and a dark voice sounded in his heart.

Alpha is the human being who deserves attention.

And Beta will always be relegated to a supporting role.

The tube of special active molecules in his hand is the antibody against virus X.

Ascle straightened his white coat, put the biological reagents back into the lower layer of the intelligent refrigerator, and saw the discussion about Ji He pop up in the computer.

It was the first time he had seen such a stupid person.

At first, he chose Huo Yubai as his test subject from among so many Alpha soldiers, and he was also attracted by the fact that Ji He, as a Beta, could not detect pheromone abnormalities.

Colonel Huo said he was a quack, which was true because he couldn't cure Alpha's illness at all.

The so-called pheromone disorder is nothing more than a sequelae of the first-generation gene virus.

From beginning to end, no one suspected him as a doctor, which made it easier for him to act.

The only thing Ascle felt sorry for was taking advantage of Ji He.

Now Lian Jihe has also become Michael's person, which can be said to have accidentally eliminated the apology in his heart.

"Doctor, aren't you going to rest?"

This is an Alpha student under Asclepius's supervision. He has taken off his lab coat and is about to put it in the sterilization cabinet.

"If you happen to be leaving, please help me send these test reagents to Mok Bio."

"Okay, I'll make the reservation right away." Alpha agreed immediately without any doubt.

The doctor has many projects on hand and has a lot of dealings with these large biological companies. He will never know that the first generation of X virus was sent out through his hands.

"Thanks for your hard work."

The Mok Bio on the delivery address is just a shell company, and the things in the package will eventually end up in the hands of someone who shouldn't have them.
