As the exclusive healer of the Fifth Legion, He Mo cured dozens of beasts infected by dark energy on his first day of work, which made the leaders of other legions eager to make a move. However, due to Zhong Qing and the power of the First Legion behind him, they dared not act rashly for the time being. Otherwise, they would have been eager to welcome He Mo over respectfully as soon as possible to help them treat the infected beasts in their legions.
The first batch of strange beasts sent here had not been infected for long and were relatively easy to expel, but this was only for someone like He Mo, who had extremely high mental power. For other people, it would probably take several weeks just to treat a strange beast.
Even though He Mo was in the Fifth Legion, a fight nearly broke out within the Fifth Legion over the first batch of exotic beasts to be treated. Every exotic beast was a treasure that the Federation could not afford to lose. If a beast were lost, the Federation member who had contracted it would be like the beast losing its owner. It would be impossible to re-contract it, and at most it would be a temporary contract. This shows the importance that exotic beasts held in the Federation's hearts.
"Woo~." Another strange beast woke up and rubbed He Mo's palm with gratitude. Only strange beasts that had experienced that kind of pain could understand what He Mo meant to them.
"Little guy, you have recovered. Go find your master. He has been worried about you for a long time." He Mo touched the little head of the exotic beast and said gently. The little guy was the last exotic beast to be treated today. His master had been waiting since morning and had been waiting until now. If visitors were not prohibited during the treatment, this person would probably break in and stare at his precious exotic beast every minute.
When the strange beasts heard He Mo's words, they nodded obediently. In order to facilitate treatment, each strange beast being treated would transform into a juvenile state after waking up. After the treatment was completed, they would return to their original appearance.
The strange beast slipped out from the open door, and couldn't wait to see its owner. Since it was infected with the dark energy, the strange beast has been strictly guarded, and the owner can only visit it outside. The man and the beast communicate through the cage. Now that it is better, it can finally kiss, hug and lift up with its owner without restraint.
He Mo only heard a surprised call, followed by a sweet exchange between the man and the beast. Every exotic beast that came out of here would have this segment, and He Mo was somewhat immune to it. Looking at the sweet looks of these people, He Mo also missed his own Xiao Jin. He had just visited it two days ago. It was having a lot of fun playing with a group of cubs. It ate and slept all day long and its body had swelled up. When it was acting coquettishly, its fat belly was exposed. You could tell at a glance that it was well raised.
He Mo was just thinking about it when a tender call came from the door on time.
"Xiao Mo~." A beautiful smiling face appeared in front of He Mo, holding a bunch of bright flowers in her hand, which made the beauty look even more beautiful like a peach or plum.
"Why are you here again?" He Mo held his forehead. He had clearly set up a simple formation at the door to prevent the mermaid from coming in. How did he break through the formation and come in?
"Xiao Mo, I just wanted to come and see you." The mermaid lowered her eyes somewhat aggrievedly. Obsidian, who was hiding nearby, immediately jumped out and said indignantly, "Yes, Shenlan just wanted to come and see you out of kindness. Don't be mean to him."
"Obsidian!" He Mo gritted his teeth. No wonder his formation failed. It must be that Obsidian did something behind the scenes.
Hei Yao looked up at the sky, the earth, left and right with a guilty conscience, but he didn't dare to look at He Mo's face. He didn't want his sweetheart to come and visit Xiao Mo, but as long as Shen Lan showed a sad expression, he couldn't help but naturally overcome all difficulties for him.
He Mo really didn't know what to say. Other people who pursued their loved ones would try every means to prevent contact with other people, but Hei Yao was different. He helped Shen Lan break through the defense line he set up, and he seemed to enjoy it. He had never realized that Hei Yao was so affectionate before.
Hei Yao was arranged by He Mo a few days ago. He was announced to the outside world as his assistant, mainly responsible for treating strange beasts with him. He Mo also wanted Hei Yao to treat these strange beasts with him. But Hei Yao, after his identity became public, followed Shen Lan around every day. Wherever Shen Lan went, Hei Yao went too, perfectly embodying the word "follower".
"I'm tired and need to rest." He Mo ordered the mermaid to leave with a stern face. He had also realized during this period of time that he could not be soft on Shenlan, but had to be hard. Once his attitude softened, the mermaid would immediately take advantage of the situation and climb very slyly.
"Xiao Mo, don't rush to send me away. I found some very strange data these days." Shen Lan stopped pretending to be pitiful and quickly took out a report he had recently compiled and handed it to He Mo.
He Mo took it and opened it, and found that it was a list of the exotic beast cubs he had taken care of some time ago and the exotic beasts he had treated.
"This is..." He Mo looked at the data inside carefully. It was all compatibility data. It recorded that the compatibility between all the exotic beasts he handled and their owners had increased. The highest was 5% and the lowest was 1%.
Shenlan said with a smile, a hint of cunning in his eyes: "I have discovered that the compatibility of all the exotic beasts that Xiao Mo has cared for has improved to a certain extent. There is a substance in their bodies that I cannot detect. This substance is exactly the same as the active ingredient in the care solution that you, Xiao Mo, provided for our mermaid clan."
"So?" He Mo closed the report and looked at the mermaid Shenlan leisurely.
"So, Xiao Mo, why don't we work together to make a drug that can improve the compatibility." The mermaid was full of confidence: "This drug will definitely drive the federal people crazy." With every increase in compatibility, the more supernatural energy that can be controlled in your hands, I believe no one will refuse this drug.
"Find him." He Mo pointed at Hei Yao. As his contracted beast, Hei Yao also practiced the Star Art. However, due to physical problems, his Star Art always stayed at the first level of perfection and could no longer practice the second level. He was just right for making this kind of medicine. He could also get the upper hand by being close to the water. Maybe he could even capture the mermaid.
The mermaid's smug smile froze. He only wanted to work with Xiao Mo, not this silly boy who stuck to him all day long. Shenlan looked at the silly-smiling Hei Yao with disdain, his heart and eyes full of reluctance. This was an idea he had come up with with great difficulty, and he had been counting on Xiao Mo to work with him. He didn't expect Xiao Mo to push this silly boy to him.
"Shenlan, don't worry, I will do my best." Heiyao blushed and patted his chest to assure, looking a little silly.
Forget it, the stupid son whom he had raised for hundreds of years suddenly ran away. He Mo suddenly understood the feeling of raising a son to marry into someone else's family, which made him feel a little bit upset.
It just so happened that Hei Yao was sticking to Shen Lan Wu Xin every day while working for him. He was too lazy to see Hei Yao's sweet expression every day. Seeing it made him just want to drive Hei Yao away. The arrogant boy turned into a fool when he met his sweetheart.
Shenlan said okay reluctantly. This potion could become a big thing that would become popular throughout the federation. Although he regretted not being able to work with Xiao Mo, he had to accept Xiao Mo's assignment and could only work with this silly boy.
After finally sending Hei Yao and Shen Lan away, He Mo suddenly felt that the air was a lot fresher.
He Mo subconsciously wanted to turn around and look for Zhong Qing. In recent days, there have been traces of Zerg on the border of the universe. There have been several frictions and battles, but the casualties were not heavy. Both sides were constantly testing each other. It was estimated that the war was about to come, and the Zerg's full-scale attack would also be during this period. Therefore, Zhong Qing has been discussing battle strategies with generals of other legions recently.
Forget it, I’d better not disturb him. He Mo stopped turning right.
The entire Fifth Legion is located in a military fortress, very close to the border of the universe. It only takes half an hour for a mecha to fly there at full speed, and a military starship is even faster, only taking fifteen to twenty minutes.
Other legions are also stationed nearby, so they can watch over each other and help each other, and take immediate action if the Zerg show abnormal behavior.
The planetary guards are distributed on the outer layer of each planet to prevent Zerg raids, but this possibility is relatively rare. The formation of a wormhole takes a very long time. The wormhole that the Zerg accidentally attacked Shuiyang City through before should be the result of their recent efforts. It is almost impossible to open another channel.
The more you don't want to meet someone, the more likely you are to meet him. Not long after He Mo went out, he saw the figure of a tall man walking towards him not far ahead, with Adjutant Cheng following behind him as usual.
"Zhong Qing." He Mo frowned. The man in front of him seemed to be even more silent. The recent battles were not very frequent, but his face looked very bad. The tall figure looked a little thin at the moment.
"Xiao Mo." Zhong Qing stared at the young man's delicate eyebrows greedily without blinking. Since that day, he could only numb himself with work, because every time he stopped, all he could see was the young man's face, his gentle look, his smiling look, his healing look... Every look was deeply imprinted in his mind, almost driving him crazy. He wanted it so much but couldn't get it.
Adjutant Cheng walked away quietly. He saw the general's recent condition and was worried, but matters of the heart were so helpless, and he couldn't be so shameless as to ask Dr. He for anything.
"Zhong Qing, if you feel pain, I have a way to make you forget your feelings for me." After hesitating for a while, He Mo spoke. There was a spell in the world of cultivation that he had practiced before because he thought it was fun. It could make Zhong Qing forget her love for him. Although he couldn't perform it now, he could teach it to Hei Yao, and the same thing would work.
"No." Zhong Qing's slender hands trembled, and he met He Mo's gaze, his pupils so deep that it was frightening: "Xiao Mo, you are really cruel." You even don't want to leave me the chance to love you.
The atmosphere was so tense that it felt suffocating. He Mo's throat was dry, and he didn't know what to say for a moment. Suddenly, he remembered the potion Shen Lan had mentioned to him today, and quickly changed the subject: "Shen Lan asked me to make a potion today that can improve the compatibility between exotic beasts and humans. As a member of the Fifth Legion, I can give you a batch first when the potion is officially released."
You are always unwilling to face my feelings, Zhong Qing smiled bitterly in his heart. Since you don't want to mention it, I won't force you. But Xiao Mo, please don't push me further away. I just want to be closer to you, just closer. The handsome and tall man's eyes were doting and helpless.
"Improve the compatibility?" Zhong Qing tried to change the subject, his face becoming serious. If there really was such an effect, he would naturally know what the potion that improved the compatibility represented. Seeing that the war was imminent, if a batch of potions could be produced before the war began, their chances of winning would be higher.
But once such a potion is released, it will undoubtedly be groundbreaking. Anyone in the Federation who possesses an exotic beast will undoubtedly find ways to acquire a bottle of this potion, and the profits behind it can be imagined. This is a potion that the entire Federation will go crazy for. Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo, how many secrets do you have? Zhong Qing felt a little sad. Even though he has reached the top of the Federation, he is still not worthy of Xiao Mo. For the first time, he realized that the young man's energy might far exceed this world...
"I'll go talk to Shenlan about this later." Zhong Qing said. This was a big deal. Once the news got out, all forces would surely take action. It would be impossible to keep such a lucrative business relying solely on the mermaid clan and the Zhong family. He had to decide on a partner before the news got out so as to maximize the benefits.
"By the way, Xiao Mo, the First Legion has contacted me before and wanted to invite you to visit the First Legion." The general of the First Legion was his benefactor and the greatest supporter of his leadership of the Fifth Legion. It was difficult for him to refuse. He was also clear about the intentions of the First Legion. Every legion had many strange beasts infected by dark energy, and most of them were the backbone of the legion. If the dark energy of these beasts could be expelled, it would be a great help to the legion.
First Corps Logistics Department.
The door of the storage room, which had been dark for years, creaked open, and Ouyang Cheng appeared behind the door.
Behind the door of the storage room was a table covered with ancient books. A middle-aged man was lying behind the table, and on his legs was a strange beast with a long tail sleeping.
"You don't need to persuade me, I won't change my decision." The middle-aged man seemed to have expected Ouyang Cheng to come, and said hoarsely, gently stroking the sleeping beast in his hand.
"Old Zhou, I'm not here to persuade you." Ouyang Cheng came today with great confidence. He dared to guarantee that as soon as Old Zhou heard the news, he would definitely follow him back to the First Legion.
"The Fifth Legion enshrined a master of spiritual power who cured dozens of beasts infected with dark energy in just a few days..."
Before Ouyang Cheng could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lao Zhou's sudden stand up.
"What did you say? Is it true? You mean, Tianluo, Tianluo can be saved?" Old Zhou roared hoarsely, his hands trembling as he supported himself on the table, holding the exotic beast that he regarded as a treasure in his arms, staring at Ouyang Cheng.
"Yes, Tianluo can be saved." Ouyang Cheng gave an affirmative answer.
"I'll go with you right away." Lao Zhou carefully hugged the strange beast in his arms and said impatiently, even accidentally kicking over the table in panic. As long as he could heal Tianluo, he was willing to do anything, not to mention such a small matter as returning to his original legion to serve, he would be happy even if it meant risking his life.
Such things happened all over the Federation. Many soldiers who were infected by dark energy from alien beasts chose to retire out of despair. After seeing the hope of the alien beasts being cured, they returned to the legion without hesitation to serve again.
