Chapter 180 A "Guest" from Another Realm
The precious drop of liquid was placed into another container, and the instrument was brought to within ten centimeters of the worm.
Squeak——
The atomized liquid was sprayed onto the ferocious insect. As everyone stared wide-eyed at the result, it stopped struggling and obediently retracted its claws, appearing extremely calm.
Yuan Heng's gaze sharpened as he looked at the bottle of liquid his assistant was holding, causing the assistant to instinctively clutch the bottle. "What are you doing..."
Yuan Heng took the bottle and said, "Turn on the instrument and spray some of this on me."
The staff were stunned. What kind of order was this?
The assistant seemed to understand what he was about to do. "Mr. Yuan! This is too dangerous!"
Yuan Heng ignored his advice and continued to command, "Hurry."
The staff had no choice but to turn the instrument around. Yuan Heng dripped a few drops of liquid, and the atomized gas sprayed all over his body.
He sniffed it without paying any attention, but couldn't smell anything. "Open the reserved hatch."
If they were unsure of what he was going to do before, this order clearly indicated that he was going to go in.
"Mr. Yuan, please forgive us..."
"Stop talking nonsense! We'll never know the outcome if we don't do it this way, start!" Yuan Heng interrupted him. "Hurry up, or we'll waste such a precious extract if the pheromones dissipate."
The assistant immediately stepped forward, "Mr. Yuan, let me go. You are too important; nothing can happen to you."
Yuan Heng pushed his hand away, "The stuff has already been used, there's no need to waste a few more drops spraying on you. Who knows when we'll be able to dissect the mother worm's corpse again."
The assistant was extremely anxious, but could only watch as Yuan Heng walked into the building, and the restraints on the ferocious insect had been loosened, and it was now lying motionless on the ground.
He hurriedly called his superiors and explained the situation, which alarmed the senior staff within the research institute.
Yuan Heng's teacher rushed to the test site, cursing, "I've told him so many times but he won't listen. With this kind of temperament, what kind of scientific researcher can he be? He might as well be an extreme athlete."
Even extreme athletes aren't as reckless as him!
"I've already given the order to hang the ferocious insect. Yuan Heng should be fine," the leader walking beside him said dryly.
He never expected Yuan Heng to pull such a stunt.
When the group arrived at the test site in a great hurry, they found that the staff were all gathered around one of the circular buildings.
"What are you doing! Where is Yuan Heng?!" the research institute leader roared.
Upon hearing the noise, Yuan Heng's assistant turned to Yuan Heng's teacher and shouted, "Mr. Yuan is inside. He... you can see for yourselves."
With suspicion, they walked to the circular building and saw Yuan Heng squatting on the ground, touching the ferocious insect beside him through the glass.
This wasn't the most terrifying part. The scariest thing was that the ferocious insect lay obediently on the ground like a puppy, letting Yuan Heng stroke its shell.
Yuan Heng bared his teeth and waved to the people above. Then he patted the belly of the ferocious insect with the back of his hand. The ferocious insect, which was lying there, was very obedient. It rolled over and exposed its belly, letting him knead it.
Everyone: "..."
·
"Hey! Stop hitting the teacher!"
Yuan Heng was chased and beaten by his teacher, who was holding an iron rod.
When the teacher saw Yuan Heng's behavior inside, she was almost scared to death. She was furious but had to lower her voice and tell him to get out immediately.
Fortunately, the person got out safely and was not injured at all.
When Dou Wenbo heard the news, he rolled his eyes. It was truly the ultimate act of courting death.
He only stopped after he had beaten the teacher enough, then angrily berated Yuan Heng before asking about the extract.
"So it was taken from the mother worm's brain?"
Yuan Heng nodded, "That's right. The initial results seem to be the pheromones of this female insect, so I sprayed some on the ferocious insect. After that, the ferocious insect became calm, so I suspected that this was one of the substances that the female insect used to control the ferocious insect."
"Even so, you can't experiment on yourself. I've said countless times that we must do things scientifically. What kind of things have you done?!"
I'm relieved as I am, but I still have to scold this crazy apprentice.
Yuan Heng chuckled a few times to brush it off, and then told his teacher about other discoveries: "The part of the mother insect that was cut off was very clever, leaving a complete larynx. We experimented and found that blowing into the larynx could produce a sound, but the sound produced was different depending on the force of the blowing. We plan to use a intact satellite to listen to the mother insect in the country of Bart and see how it uses sound to control the ferocious insects."
This news is comparable to that of pheromone extracts.
"That's true, but we can't do something like this again. The mother insect is rare, but someone like you is equally important. If something goes wrong..."
The teacher's eyes reddened as she spoke, and Yuan Heng lowered his head, reflecting on his previous impulsiveness.
After wiping his eyes, the teacher continued, "The authorities are going to work closer to those capable people to try and get another queen insect. Don't push yourself too hard."
·
After the death of the queen insect in Luo Kingdom, the soldiers on the border clearly felt a significant reduction in pressure. The ferocious insects were no longer as endless as before. In less than a week, satellite images showed that the number of ferocious insects had decreased considerably.
With this beginning, everyone naturally turned their attention to the mother insects in other places.
If all the mother insects are eliminated, the planet's crisis should be resolved.
Not only the official team, but also the players are eager to find an opportunity to kill the mother insect.
The day after the mother beetle was dissected, the authorities released this exciting news, and the indigenous people were overjoyed upon seeing it.
In addition to obtaining an extract that could control the gnats, a cooperation statement was also attached that left the indigenous people scratching their heads.
The official team will cooperate with all players on the border, and will announce this in this open and transparent manner.
A few days later, a major overseas country announced that it had killed a queen insect and made a breakthrough in research.
According to satellite imagery, there are currently about seven queen worms globally. Now that two are gone, the remaining five need to be dealt with as quickly as possible. Some countries have resorted to using nuclear weapons, but the queen worms haven't died; they've simply gone into hiding.
A few days later, Rong Yi and Wei Yanqing were approached by military officers again.
This time he got straight to the point: "Regarding the cooperation, we have reached an agreement with all parties. We will provide fast-moving transportation and weapons support, and they will share the resources of the swarming insects with us. However, regarding the cooperation to kill the queen insect... they are demanding all the insect corpses, which we cannot agree to."
The value of the mother insect is recognized not only by players, but also by the native inhabitants.
Therefore, after much deliberation, the officer decided to take a gamble and invited Rong Yi and Wei Yanqing to see if they could reach a cooperation agreement.
If all else fails, then they will have to pay a bloody price...
The two were not surprised by the result. Rong Yi scratched the bridge of his nose and said, "So how do you want to cooperate? We don't really need the corpse of the mother insect, but we can't do things for free."
The reason she killed so easily last time was because her strength was temporarily unsealed. Although she had Wei Yanqing's healing ability, each time she unsealed her strength was a huge risk, and if she was not careful, she would lose control of her bloodlust.
"Of course, you can ask for anything, as long as we can obtain some of the mother insect's corpse for research."
These are not words that can be spoken lightly; the official attitude is rigorous and committed.
