Chapter 714 - 714 714 Reaper Plan!

714: Chapter 714: Reaper Plan!

714: Chapter 714: Reaper Plan!

“What?

Say that again?”

Wu Jie strode out of the lab, his voice filled with shock.

Zheng held back a laugh as he spoke, “Our agent sent back a report, saying that among Hittory’s inspection team, one of the directors suddenly fell ill and has been quarantined on the plane.

There’s a chance they’ve contracted the virus!”

“Right now, the plane doesn’t dare to fly back to the Yezhou Continent.

It’s already returning halfway and I expect everyone will be taken to a secret scientific research base for treatment.

This is great, our agent can take this opportunity to infiltrate them and thoroughly investigate what’s really going on.”

After hearing the news, Wu Jie couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter.

“Karma!

This is truly karma!”

“Before they even started harming the whole world, they screwed over their own people first.

Not bad, not bad at all!”

Zheng chuckled, “This is what they call ‘Those who walk the path of injustice will meet their end’!

We’ll see how things develop from here.

This should certainly affect their overall plan and is advantageous for our agent to infiltrate and steal more information!”

Wu Jie laughed, “This is an unexpected boon.

I definitely have to meet this agent when I get the chance.

They are seriously impressive!”

“To have successfully infiltrated and remained undercover in the Rosdelle Auxiliary Business Association for so long, and even managed to obtain such timely and useful information!”

Zheng snorted with a smile, “You’re thinking too much.

An agent of this level, once they infiltrate and go undercover, will absolutely not easily expose their identity.

Even their files are highly classified.”

Wu Jie laughed, “I’m just saying.

If it’s meant to be, we’ll meet inevitably!”

After a bit more casual conversation, they hung up the phone, and Wu Jie folded back to the lab.

Wu Jie spent a million energy points to exchange for the formula and production process of the Detox Pill.

But obviously, like with the Graphene Composite Batteries, they could not simply tell the scientific researchers outright—that would be too miraculous.

To appear more low-key and reasonable, Wu Jie pointed them in the right direction for their research.

Because the Detox Pill provided by the system is essentially an active probiotic bacteriophage.

Therefore, Wu Jie directly made up an excuse about ‘microbiology’, claiming to have discovered a special bacteria in the piles of a deep-sea volcano.

He directed them to utilize this special bacteriophage to begin cultivation and improvement, generation by generation, gradually refining it.

The ultimate goal was to develop an excellent bacteriophage.

Once ingested by humans, it could devour toxic substances, harmful bacteria, heavy metals, and so on, to be excreted out of the body through the digestive system.

After all, scientific research is about hitting the jackpot, conducting innumerable experiments to put theory into practice.

Moreover, with the Rosdelle Auxiliary Business Association facing an unexpected incident, and the Muto Conglomerate’s conspiracy plan apparently postponed,

The bacteriophage used to prepare the Detox Pill could be researched more slowly—there was no need to rush it to the market as urgently as the Graphene Composite Batteries.

After staying at the research institute until about three in the afternoon, Wu Jie then went to the orphanage.

It had been a long time since he had visited Yuan Zihan, who had been discharged from the hospital by now and deserved a visit.

Such a sweet and adorable child, yet saddled with a father like Yuan Shikui who valued sons over daughters and didn’t even recognize her.

Fortunately, Lin Yuan had always treated her as her own and cared for her tenderly.

…

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

At an altitude of ten thousand meters.

A large business jet was making a wide turn.

According to the original flight plan, they had taken off in the morning and were set to land in the Star Federation twelve hours later.

But…

The journey was already halfway through, the plane passing over the Arctic.

All the members of the inspection team, who were healthy upon boarding the plane, suddenly suffered a medical emergency.

A director from the Rosdelle Auxiliary Business Association started feeling nauseous and began to vomit.

Could it be due to airsickness?

Or was it the in-flight meal that didn’t agree with them?

Better safe than sorry!

To be cautious, Hittory, serving as the vice chairman, immediately had the sick director taken to the medical station for a check-up.

At the same time, the business jet turned back.

There was no other choice!

This incident was too sudden.

If this director was truly infected, and the plane landed…

So…

they were turning back!

Hittory did not dare to take any risks.

After an urgent consultation with Mutoh Yoshio, Hittory ordered that Operation ‘Reaper’, a top-secret plan, be put on hold.

This plan was actually very simple: the Muto Conglomerate was responsible for supplying the Sakuragi Hana virus and the antidote.

And the role of the Rosdelle Auxiliary Business Association was to handle global distribution and sales.

Now, even before the plan had begun, an internal director was suspected to be infected.

Was it a common cold and fever, or just airsickness?

The limited medical facilities on the plane could not determine this.

Therefore, the best course of action was to turn back and head to a medical research base for further analysis and inspection.

Regardless of the infection status, everyone on the plane would have to be injected with the antidote as a precautionary measure.

At this very moment,

The situation Hittory faced was delicate.

During their inspection, they had witnessed firsthand how potent the Sakuragi Hana virus was.

They had also seen that the antidote was indeed effective.

But all this had been arranged by the Muto Conglomerate, and the inside opinion of their association was to conduct strict testing on their own.

The plan was to select no fewer than twenty devoted individuals on the Super Cruise Ship Brune to conduct virus infection and treatment trials.

They wouldn’t officially start the plan with the Muto Conglomerate until their own tests proved problem-free.

If there were issues during testing, such as infection without the antidote working or surviving the infection without dying…

They could opt not to proceed with the plan and postpone cooperation with the Muto Conglomerate.

Unfortunately…

Plans don’t always go as expected.

The inspection team hadn’t yet returned to the country when an unexpected incident occurred en route.

Not turning back?

Were they waiting for the plane to reach Yezhou, to let the Sakuragi Hana virus spread rapidly?

The Muto Conglomerate wasn’t ready for mass production at the moment either and didn’t have enough of the cure.

The plane roared back, and unable to set his mind at ease, he put on a mask and hurried to the medical facility to visit.

After all, the suspected infected director, Madam Hera, was Hittory’s aunt, and he had to go!

At this very moment.

At the entrance of the medical facility, a crowd had gathered.

Erhui, a renowned medical expert, was also there.

“Everyone, please remain calm.

The plane has already started to turn back, and we have plenty of fuel, so there’s no need to worry!”

“Furthermore…

even if Madam Hera has been unfortunate enough to get infected, it doesn’t matter, we have the cure, don’t we?”

“And Mutoh Yoshio has already started preparing for our reception, with a strong medical team ready to handle the situation!”

As soon as Hittory arrived, he started to reassure everyone.

Erhui frowned slightly and pulled Hittory aside.

“Don’t you find it strange?

When we all went on the inspection, everyone was fully clothed from head to toe!”

“Madam Hera was especially careful and cautious, wearing two sets of sterile suits, even her masks and gloves were doubled up!”

“Of everyone, she was the cleanest and seemingly the least likely to be infected, yet now she’s the one suspected of being infected.

It’s just too odd!”

At these words, Hittory too became puzzled.

His aunt lived a life of refinement.

Even in ordinary times, she would always wear gloves and a mask when stepping out.

Her home was always spotless, with several cleaners on hand.

If anyone sneezed at her, she could be infuriated to death.

Such a highly germaphobic person would naturally be the most careful during a medical research base inspection.

Yet what happened?

While everyone else was fine, she was the first to be suspected of infection.

“Do you think…

could it be that we’re all infected but just haven’t shown symptoms yet?”

Hittory proposed a bold hypothesis.

Erhui stroked his beard and furrowed his brows deeply.

“We can’t rule out that possibility!

After all, each person’s constitution is different, and we don’t know…”

“This…”

Hittory clenched his fist and gritted his teeth.

At this moment.

He couldn’t help but want to give himself an injection of the cure.

After all, during the inspection, the senior members of the Auxiliary Business Association had witnessed firsthand how devastating and painful the onset of the disease could be.

But Hittory was also afraid.

The Muto Conglomerate couldn’t be entirely sure how many ways the virus could be transmitted, how many times it could cause mutations, whether the cure could prevent it one hundred percent, or if there would be any side effects…

Everything was still an unknown, and more live experiments were needed to confirm.

Seeing Hittory fall silent, Erhui advised:

“The Muto Conglomerate’s sudden proposal to cooperate with us was suspicious in itself.”

“In my opinion, they must be financially exhausted, especially since they’ve suffered severe losses in the investment field!”

“By working with us, they can share the costs of scientific research and implement the Reaper project faster and better…”

Hittory remained quiet, well aware of the situation.

The Muto Conglomerate had been bled dry by Wu Jie’s scheme involving Tianyuan He Ying Credit Co.

Desperate, they even attempted to kidnap Tang Xiao to extort a large sum from Wu Jie to get through their difficulties…

But their plan backfired, as they not only failed to get the money but also lost more elite Martial Artists and were forced to seek cooperation with Rosdelle’s Auxiliary Business Association.

“What’s done is done, there’s nothing more to say!”

Hittory reassured: “Once we get back, we’ll all get quarantined and checked to confirm we aren’t infected!”

Erhui nodded slightly:

“Since both sides are sincere in our cooperation, we should use a large cruise ship to start the trials at sea!”

“Both of us will bring our research personnel, equipment, etc., all concentrated on the cruise ship, to focus on tackling the problem!”

“Their underground base experiments not only risk exposure but are also easily targeted by others!”

…

The two of them stood to one side, chattering away in discussion.

Little did they know, not far off, a financial analyst of the Auxiliary Business Association, not high in rank, was facing them at an angle.

A super-miniature pinhole camera on his belt buckle was faithfully recording everything.

This Asian analyst had been living abroad since he was young and had a relatively clean background.

Having passed through the rigorous scrutiny of the Auxiliary Business Association without any suspicions, he still wasn’t promoted, however.

In the past, the Auxiliary Business Association made waves in the markets of foreign exchange, futures, and stocks, reaping enormous profits.

Now, with countries tightening financial controls, business is becoming harder, and they’re trying to create a viral crisis in cahoots with the Muto Conglomerate.

Filled with indignation, he couldn’t concern himself with the principles of undercover espionage any longer.

As soon as he received the latest information, he would immediately hurry to report it.

But what he hadn’t expected was…

While secretly filming, suddenly many people began to cough, and even he felt a bit dizzy and nauseous.

There was no pungent smell in the air, could it be that they were all infected with the virus?

If that were the case, wouldn’t that mean the virus was already rampant on this plane?
