To be honest, Ben is now more surprised or more horrified than having any other emotions.
"Dr. Ivan... has my condition worsened again..."
At this moment, he finally felt the pain caused by the blisters at the corners of his mouth.
"Hiss~"
What could Alvin say? His eyes were now wider than anyone else's.
What is this complication? What is the mechanism? Spontaneous human combustion?
Or maybe it’s not a disease at all!
"Excuse me, sir, what happened to Ben? As his attending physician, I want to know all about the patient's condition."
Alan was the first to ask Huang Jiutian a question, which was also the question asked by everyone else present, so no one interrupted him.
Jiutian looked at Tao Xingzhi, and only started to explain after getting the latter's nod of confirmation.
"Evolvers, or new humans, this is a direction of future human evolution, or it could be genetic screening during the changes in the world..."
Ivan was a little confused. Although he was the attending physician of these patients, he had been kept in the dark. He was not even qualified to touch the corpse of the fire demon that was so close to him.
Some of the things Huang Jiutian said were beyond his normal understanding.
But Alvin has a good habit. When he doesn’t understand something, he chooses to listen first instead of interrupting others.
"According to our country's current research and inferences, evolvers can be divided into three types. The first type is natural gene selection, the second type is passive specific erosion, and the third and most mysterious type is what we call awakening evolution."
Huang Jiutian's words not only made most people confused, but also made Norton feel more and more that their side's backwardness in dealing with the changes in the world had far exceeded expectations.
"What's the situation of that book?"
Norton remained calm and asked the question as calmly as possible.
"Ben's condition should be the second type, which is passive specific erosion. If possible, I would like to see the data of his treatment process."
"Okay, I'll get it for you right away!"
Without waiting for Norton's order, Alvin left the isolation shed.
"Also, Ben, you'd better bring the ice packs to cool down now. You can't control your abilities yet, but you don't need to use the respirator anymore."
Baru personally stepped forward, ready to help Ben transform his special features into a special ice ring that looked like a ring around his clothes.
He could clearly feel that the temperature next to him was much higher than the surrounding area.
"It's amazing, Mr. Ben. With that kind of fire, you only got a few blisters on your lips. Your ability to withstand high temperatures is far beyond that of ordinary people. Mr. Huang, is this part of evolution?"
The last sentence was said by Baru to Huang Jiutian.
Baru's calmness also made Norton feel that he had saved some face. He glanced at the solemn Tao Xingzhi with a squint.
At least he has people under his command who can handle the situation, so China doesn't have to steal all the limelight.
"I think so, but detailed research is needed to draw a definite conclusion."
“Sizzle~”
When Baloo was helping Ben with the ice pack, his hand touched Ben's neck. The burning sensation and sound made him realize Ben's body temperature at the moment.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
Ben quickly apologized to the fierce-looking Baru.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt."
After Baru dealt with it, he asked Jiutian casually with a smile.
"Which category does Mr. Huang belong to?"
At this time, Tao Xingzhi showed his presence, laughed it off, and indicated that he would not answer this question for the time being.
Alvin came back soon, bringing with him all the records from the onset of the disease to the present, as well as a small USB flash drive.
With Ivan's detailed explanation and Ben's cooperation in recalling his original physical sensations, basically everyone present gradually understood the intermediate process of Ben's evolution.
I remember that in the past, Norton was still suffering from the new type of lung fever that had no cure, but now he suddenly felt that these people were his treasures.
"So, Mr. Huang Jiutian, this means that all patients with the new lung fever will evolve into new humans like me?"
"I'm not sure about that. So far, I only sense that this Mr. Ben has evolved to a more mature level."
Norton nodded.
This is enough. Currently, the conditions of all patients are stable. It’s only because this is the second patient that the time is longer than the others, and there are quite a few soldiers among the remaining people. This is a big advantage.
At present, the power of this flame may not be as good as that of a flamethrower, but its research is of great significance and has great development potential.
…
Afterwards, the group asked Ben to rest a little and then went to the reception and rest area.
After an exciting day, I felt physically and mentally exhausted but in a good mood. The real key was to obtain valuable information about the evolvers. Although China has only shared a little bit of this information for the time being, as long as the cooperation is maintained, it will be of great help to America.
The Chinese delegation can take a break, but Norton cannot, as he has an important temporary video conference to attend.
In a small meeting room, there were only Norton, Baru and Anthony, another important subordinate of Norton.
It took Norton two hours to explain the important information that he had mentioned briefly during the day.
The word "evolutionist" has a heavy meaning, but compared with the impact it may cause, it is more important to share China's current research progress.
Several conversations during the day made them realize that China had already established a theoretical system in this regard, and there would probably be no shortage of research and even experimental data.
However, there were actually not many cards that his side could play. Norton came to a very simple conclusion with his superiors during the video conference.
With the information we currently have, just being able to obtain the detailed results of the evolvers is a sure win.
So the next day, after adjusting to the jet lag and feeling much better, the Chinese delegation found that the enthusiasm of the American side was a whole level higher than yesterday.
He took the initiative to disclose other information that had been kept secret yesterday, admitted the difficulties in the research on the Flame Demon, and even said that the Chinese could take some of the Flame Demon fragments back to the country.
At the same time, he also proposed to visit China on a certain day.
…
As an unexpected gain from this event, Tao Xingzhi has issued an observation plan with the internal code name "Fire Baby".
During the communication process, he secretly cooperated with Huang Jiutian and achieved research progress that surpassed the Americans.
In Huang Jiutian's perception, the fire-breather can do more than just breathe fire. In the future, he will most likely be able to regulate flames to a certain extent.
At least when they lit a cigarette, Huang Jiutian could feel a special smell in the flames.
This they did not share with the Americans.
But whenever he used his magic power, the flames would immediately become docile.
Late at night, in the public hall of Huaguo's lounge, Huang Jiutian was drinking coffee lazily.
Tao Xingzhi, the chain smoker, was still smoking.
"If I could spit fire, it would be easier to light a cigarette, right Jiutian?"
"Boss... If you keep smoking like this, I'm afraid you'll die of lung cancer before you die on the front line against the mutation."
"Stop being such a crow!"
Tao Xingzhi threw the cigarette box that contained the last cigarette at Jiutian's face.
Jiutian smiled, feeling the magic power in his body, looking at the team members who were still busy, and suddenly he had a feeling of being an outsider looking down on the situation.
'Perhaps this is how I feel. I wonder how long it will take these busy people to get in touch with this magical power?'
Every time he deepened his understanding of magic, Jiutian desired more and more to possess magic of his own.
Thinking of this, his smile widened.
It's almost done. After all, we have someone in Shuguang, and Qin Xiaoxia will not treat him badly no matter who we treat.
"What are you laughing at?"
Tao Xingzhi threw a piece of chewing gum to Jiutian, who hurriedly caught it.
"I'm laughing. How long can we continue to prepare and busy ourselves in this peaceful manner?"
"Then you can be considered to have a wry smile... But tell me, is the spiritual creature in the American's data really related to the mysterious existence we encountered in China?"
"Are they humans or something else?"
Huang Jiutian put the unwrapped chewing gum into his mouth.
"I don't know if they are human or not, but it's clear that they are helping us, yet they are wary of us. I don't understand why."
These words touched Tao Xingzhi.
'Perhaps I can understand a little.'
I didn't say what was in my heart, so I'll just let it go for now.
