The adjutant explained to Huo Shen in detail what they had found out during their investigation.
Cen Shen's laboratory is indeed conducting research on drugs that alter the sex of a person, and they have indeed given Li Chonghe the relevant drugs—but judging from their existing samples, the effect of this drug is only to change the sex of a person in a short period of time, and it cannot completely change the sex of a person.
However, Cen Shen's version was different.
It appears that someone deliberately replaced the corresponding medication.
"Who do you think it is?" Huo Shen asked.
The adjutant did not speak.
He simply mentioned something unrelated: "The Second Prince's older sister has been to Planet Nott."
Compared to Li Chonghe, the princess was older. After graduating from the Imperial Military Academy, she visited the planet Nott to help the local residents who were being harassed by space pirates.
After the disaster broke out on Nott, the princess actively contacted the old emperor, wanting the military to quickly help the people of Nott.
This was no secret, which led to the princess having an excellent reputation. Although she had lived a secluded life in recent years due to poor health, most people in the empire, including the nobles, considered her a generous and kind lady.
“What are you implying?” Huo Shen said.
"This is just providing some supplementary information," the adjutant said.
They had all experienced the emergency evacuation ten years ago and remembered some details—considering that the princess herself had been to Nott and done a lot of charity work, her behavior was not strange.
Now we're connecting all these details, or rather, all the clues together.
Huo Shen couldn't help but have some uneasy thoughts.
He always felt that the so-called drug that could change a person's gender had even greater hidden dangers.
"The potion Cen Shen researched was fake; the potion that was replaced was the real one that could change a person's gender..."
Replacing the medicine was clearly a malicious act, and Huo Shen didn't think anyone would be so kind as to help Li Chonghe achieve his goal.
Clearly, this medication has other side effects as well.
"Do I need to report this?" the adjutant asked.
Huo Shen was undecided for the first time.
He didn't know what the side effects of the potion were, but now all three of the empire's most prominent heirs were involved.
"...The original version extracted from Adam and Eve." Huo Shen had a headache. "What do you think that could be? It's related to insects no matter how you look at it."
Huo Shen had been to the planet Nott; back then, they only suspected that Nott held some secret.
After discovering the underground structures and the half-human, half-insect creatures during this competition, they specifically tracked down the people who escaped from the starport at that time, and they also retrieved the records of Chi Jiazhen on the spaceship back then.
One thing has finally been confirmed.
Chi Jiazhen was born on the planet Nott.
The other party was about 5 or 6 years old when they left under the guise of the evacuation team. The archives of the remote star B5-273 also contain photos of the other party taken after leaving the spaceship.
By using their access privileges, they obtained this part of the data.
The black-haired boy in the photo looks to be about 5 or 6 years old. His eyes are ordinary brown and do not have the characteristics of an overlord insect.
"Chi Jiazhen only revealed her true eye color after she differentiated herself," the adjutant said.
“The larvae will hide themselves.” Huo Shen was not surprised.
Putting all this information together, Huo Shen pieced together the truth of what happened back then—
“They’re all a bunch of lunatics,” he said. “How could anyone think of hiding the corpses of Ohmu underground? And using them for experiments?”
Having fought against the Zerg for many years, he knew that the Zerg would definitely seek out the Queen, even if it was just a corpse—not to mention that the Queen was still alive, though weakened, when they entered the underground.
It was practically inevitable that the Zerg would choose to attack Nott.
"As for the princess," Huo Shen thought for a moment, "we don't need to worry about her."
"After you meet Li Chonghe, tell him about this matter, and he will naturally investigate it."
Although he could reveal this to the Crown Prince, the latter was practically useless except for being an Alpha, and he didn't think the latter was capable of finding anything out—moreover, the Crown Prince was temporarily refusing to show his face because he had become an Omega.
After ending the call with his adjutant, Huo Shen checked their distance from Planet Hailan again.
Considering that Chi Jiazhen was most likely a hybrid of a queen insect and a human, and that Li Chonghe also had secrets, Huo Shen pondered how to subtly warn Cen Shen to be careful of these two.
He stood there, and when he finally spoke with Li Chonghe, he changed his approach—
"We'll meet on the junk planet to avoid detection by the Zerg."
...
"Meet on a garbage planet?"
Cen Yu learned this latest news from Li Chonghe.
Wen Zhen bought some nutritional supplements from the Liangliang Nutritional Solution Shop next door and threw them to the three people in the room. He picked out an apple-flavored one and poured it into his mouth.
"Huo Shen is worried that if the spaceship gets too close to Planet Hailan, the insectoids will detect it," Li Chonghe explained Huo Shen's message.
"His squad is small, and if they were to face the Zerg from Planet Aquamarine, their chances of winning would be slim."
Cen Yu nodded in understanding upon hearing this.
The distance between the garbage planet and the blue planet is not particularly far, and the mechs have enough fuel to last until they land on the garbage planet.
That place was a barren area that even the Zerg wouldn't bother to go; there was nothing there but abandoned garbage and wasteland.
"When do we set off?" Cen Yu asked.
"As soon as possible." Li Chonghe glanced at Huo Shen's message, which indicated that he couldn't stay on the garbage planet for too long and that it was best to set off as soon as possible to ensure the plan would go smoothly.
