The virus has been spreading for three days. A flu epidemic has swept across hundreds of millions of planets in the entire galaxy. Although almost everyone has been infected, the only deaths have occurred in the galaxy centered on the Happy Planet, which is scattered across more than 5,700 planets.
Thus, the invasion range of the parasitic beasts was clearly marked out like ink on a white paper.
Huo Li also secretly assigned the task of checking the number of psychics outside the Salvation Alliance two days ago. So more than 1,900 high-level psychics shuttled between the planets to collect data while running noses, sneezing, and having fevers for two days.
At the same time, he would complain from time to time through the intelligent computer:
"Why does this virus infect us too?"
"That's right, why not infect ordinary people? It's enough to distinguish between parasitic beasts and humans... A-choo!"
"What is the difference between the physiological structure of psychics and ordinary people? No one in this world knows! So Huo Li and the aliens can't research a virus that only infects ordinary people!"
"Cough cough cough! It's really terrible to work while sick!"
"Stop complaining! It seems that the physical fitness of psychics is stronger than that of ordinary people, and the symptoms are milder. It's just a cold, not even a high fever!" C2001 couldn't help but scolded after hearing the complaints of the psychics around him.
Therefore, after 2-3 days of efforts by more than 1900 patients, the 28332 registered psychics living outside the Savior Alliance in the entire galaxy were finally checked.
Many psychics disappeared silently one day due to moving, traveling or immigrating to other planets in the past 17 years, while other planets never had their entry records.
After the summary of more than 1900 missioners, a shocking conclusion was finally reached: 11003 of the 28332 psychics disappeared in the past 17 years!
This result undoubtedly shocked the psychics and even the main system!
"Parasitic beasts do not have human emotions and will not be suspicious of psychics without reason." The black-haired boy said to a group of psychics through his intelligent brain, "But the survival instinct of the parasitic race will guide them to rationally try to steal the superpowers of psychics."
Thousands of psychics who originally had visions of the new world of parasitic beasts were silent. No one thought that parasitic beasts would have such a crazy idea! Superpowers
have been an unsolved mystery for thousands of years. Once they belong to a person, they will accompany him for life like a soul mark. They cannot even be passed on to the next generation, let alone such an abstract and fantastic idea as stealing superpowers!
"I have to say that this kind of rational guidance is indeed much more effective than the suspicion of humans that you sneer at." The young man said with a hint of sarcasm, "You'd better pray that they haven't succeeded." "
Little Alien, are you saying that the parasitic beasts may have kidnapped those 11,000 psychics for the purpose of studying the conversion of psychics?" At this critical moment, even the main system had to personally come forward and participate in the discussion in a soft and anxious voice.
"According to my guess about our parasitic cousins," the black-haired boy said, "when they just escaped and gained their footing, they should have set up an experimental base on a hidden planet. That is their headquarters and the place they have the most secure control over, not the Happy Planet."
After a moment of silence, the voice of the little cat who was also listening to the discussion online came from the intelligent brain: "But I didn't foresee the destruction of the experimental planet you mentioned."
Huo Li saw that the boy felt a little unnatural the moment he heard the little cat's voice, but the boy quickly hid the trace of apology in his heart, and listened to the little cat's words seriously with a serious face.
"If it's a major event like the destruction of a planet, I will predict it in advance." The kitten said. At this critical moment, she had to reveal the secret of her superpowers to the public: "But in these 17 years, I have only predicted the complete destruction of two planets. One of them is the Happy Planet, and the other planet's star exploded..."
The superpowers were also confused. Could there still be an experimental base on a planet with an exploded star?
"Planetary destruction refers to the moment when all humans on a planet die?" Huo Li pointed out everyone's mistake, "Those superpowers used as experimental subjects are still alive."
"So it's basically impossible to locate this hypothetical experimental planet through prophecy," the boy concluded, "Suppose they really researched something, such as the emergence of superpower parasitic beasts, their first target will definitely be me."
Huo Li frowned after hearing this, but ultimately did not express his disagreement.
"Because before the Happy Planet was exposed, the parasitic beasts have been trying their best to destroy the last alien in the world." The boy continued, "In their eyes, they will never believe that I am really on the side of humans. In the eyes of parasitic beasts, as long as aliens exist, even if they have achieved complete victory and turned all humans in the galaxy into parasitic beasts, they are nothing more than trillions of fresh culture dishes prepared for aliens."
A group of psychics who were having a meeting in front of the intelligent computer could not help but shudder after hearing this metaphor.
Huo Li was anxious, and quickly used his mental power to remind him: "Little Alien, don't make any hints in this regard. I'm afraid that after the war, the psychics will..."
But the boy continued as if he didn't hear him: "As long as I spread the black dust to every planet, within 24 hours, the humans or parasitic beasts on hundreds of millions of planets in the entire galaxy will serve as mothers to give birth to the next generation of psychics. The parasitic beasts still can't understand why I don't do that."
A group of psychics: We don't understand either! You really will never do that?
Huo Li felt that Little Alien was too abnormal today. In the past, this way of reproduction has always been a taboo for the boy to keep silent, but today Little Alien actually talked about the "scar of the soul" without changing his expression. When the day comes when we defeat the parasites, the mutants might turn against us...
The black-haired boy: "So our top priority is to spread the word that I have actually betrayed the Savior Alliance and humans, and secretly used an uninhabited planet as my territory. I am gathering my army of black silk mutants, preparing to take advantage of the conflict between humans and parasites and occupy the world."
"But 2d14, can't you infect the entire galaxy with black spores?" Engineer C2001 asked cautiously in a tone of discussing technical issues: "Why do we need a planet to create black silk mutants as an army?"
The black-haired boy did not feel offended at this time, but replied in a relaxed tone: "The real reason is: we need an ambush site to besiege the hypothetical parasitic beasts, such as a planet. The explanation to the parasitic beasts is: the aliens infected by spores are..."
The boy couldn't say the words "my descendants" for a long time. Finally, he used all his willpower to suppress the disgust in his heart and continued in a flat voice:
"…It's another alien. It's not the same individual as me. After all, I killed all the aliens in the world, that is, all my blood relatives, a year ago. From the perspective of the parasitic beast's rationality, this can be explained as the exclusivity in my heart. The possessiveness of my own powerful bloodline makes me unable to tolerate the existence of any other alien."
The mutants were stunned by this strange habit! Can the parasitic beast believe it?
The black-haired boy seemed to see their worries through his brain, and said with relief: "This is called 'killing every relative'! Don't worry, the parasitic beast clan knows that this is my usual style."
While everyone was immersed in thinking about the feasibility of the plan, the main group who had been listening silently President had to point out an issue that everyone ignored: "We still don't know if there are parasitic beasts with supernatural powers in the world... Let me remind everyone that the news we got is only the disappearance of 11,003 supernatural beings."
Everyone woke up like a dream! Then what's the point of discussing it?
So this seriously off-topic meeting had to end midway.
On the planet Fandu, Philip Hospital
A skinny young man in his 20s walked into the hospital with a cough. If it weren't for the fact that everyone had recently been infected with infectious diseases, people would have thought he was taking a drug overdose.
He was taken to the outer room of the clinic by a pink-dressed nurse with a standardized smile, standing at the end of a long line of patients waiting for the nanotherapy device. Before he had waited for a few minutes, he yawned, asked the person in front of him listlessly about the location of the toilet, and left the clinic in a sloppy manner.
He coughed as he turned into the men's toilet. When he was sure that no one was around, the gangster aura on his body disappeared instantly, and then his whole body began to fade slowly and merged into the air. The
invisible young man covered his mouth tightly with his hands to prevent himself from coughing and making a sound that appeared out of thin air and aroused suspicion. He shoulders the hope of survival for the entire parasitic race! He must hold back his cough and lurk all the way to the laboratory of this alien hospital to find a cure for the virus.
But it is not easy for a pneumonia patient to hold back his cough. He just walked to the door of the toilet and his face turned red. Just when he was struggling to hold it in.
"Huo Li, this is it!"
The parasitic beast, who had just started his rugged journey, saw a black-haired figure that frightened their entire race turning out of the stairwell at the last moment of losing consciousness...
