740: Chapter 740: The mountain rain is coming, the wind fills the building!

Smoke swirled.

The situation was grim.

This unprecedented biochemical crisis had put immense pressure on the attendees.

The Sakura Virus, developed by the Muto Conglomerate, was now clearly understood by everyone through the multitude of evidence collected before.

Even.

A group from Rosdelle’s Auxiliary Business Association, including Hittory, had personally experienced what it felt like to be infected with the virus.

Of course, having flown back in time, all of them had since fully recovered after being injected with the special antidote, and they had all been vaccinated with it.

This meant that even if the virus spread globally and became a disaster, they would be safe.

As for the Muto Conglomerate…

They were even less likely to be infected, having been vaccinated with the special antidote long ago and were completely unafraid of the Sakura Virus.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was somewhat oppressive.

At that moment, a slide was displayed by the head of the department.

“From my professional standpoint, without obtaining the virus and special antidote for specialized analysis and testing, three problems may persist!”

“First is the issue of the strange disease infiltration; we already know it can mutate in various ways, continuously deteriorating the body until a gruesome death.

But can these mutations really end?

Will taking the special antidote possibly cause more fierce mutations years later?”

“Second is the question of why the special antidote can prevent and treat when the virus itself can mutate.

Could it be a case of fighting poison with poison, or does it target the DNA sequence of the virus for an immediate effect?”

“Third, once the virus spreads globally, they will definitely sell the special antidote to healthy people for prevention and to those infected for treatment, and the price will surely not be cheap.

But will it really work?”

After raising three doubts, the discussion in the meeting room became even more heated.

Wu Jie was attending such a meeting for the first time, so he did not speak out.

The Sakura Virus that infected humans and wreaked havoc on life was not like a software virus that infected and damaged mobile phones, computers, or servers.

This biochemical crisis…

seemed to have little to do with cybersecurity!

Moreover, as a ‘newcomer,’ it was natural for him to remain silent at the convention.

Zheng sat beside him, the ashtray in front of him already filled with several cigarette butts.

Not just Zheng, but others as well were brainstorming, continuously thinking of ways to resolve the crisis.

Seeing this scene, Wu Jie couldn’t help but be moved!

However…

What the public thought and said wasn’t important.

The peaceful and comfortable environment was hard-earned and had to be protected at all costs.

After the intense discussion continued for a while, it split into two differing opinions.

One was to take proactive and immediate forceful action.

To try every means possible, whether it was theft or robbery, the goal was to get their hands on the virus’s special antidote and confidential materials.

Strike first to gain the upper hand, or you’ll end up being controlled by others.

Even knowing that the chances of success were slim and that many agents might be sacrificed for it.

But what other choice did they have?

Moreover!

“Loyal bones are buried everywhere under the green hills, why should one require their corpse to be wrapped in horsehide upon return?”

Even knowing the Muto Conglomerate and Rosdelle’s Auxiliary Business Association would certainly be on high alert.

Whether it was infiltrating and stealing or fighting for it forcefully, the death rate would inevitably be exceedingly high.

Reality is not a movie.

In films like 007 and Mission: Impossible, agents can do anything, overcoming any danger no matter how perilous.

But in reality, often discovery, or even suspicion, would mean certain secret execution.

Error on the side of overkill rather than let one slip through!

If this opinion were adopted and acted upon,

then…

Wu Jie knew that it wouldn’t be long before some nameless martyrs would appear.

Even if they sacrificed their lives, their families would never know what they had done, for what cause they had perished, or where they had served.

Even the sight of their bodies would be denied to their relatives.

…

The other opinion was not exactly opposite but relatively moderate.

“When the nest is upset, no egg remains unbroken.”

Therefore.

It wasn’t about blindly taking risks and forceful actions, but rather immediately working closely with other countries’ intelligence agencies.

Since the Muto Conglomerate and Rosdelle Auxiliary Business Association have begun to threaten all of humanity,

they pose even more of a threat than any terrorist force.

Those terrorist forces can only orchestrate things like kidnappings, hijackings, and suicide bombings, which—even if successful—only kill a minority, maybe several dozen or a few hundred people.

But Mutoh Yoshio and Hittory are different, damn it, they’re threatening billions of people across the globe!

Their experiments are far from adequate, having not undergone enough clinical trials, nor sufficient observation over a long period.

If their virus cannot be completely cured, and randomly, uncontrollably mutates…

What if the cure is only temporarily effective, and cannot provide effective defense and complete cure…

It’s not like such things haven’t happened before.

Why do hospitals now try to minimize patient use of antibiotics?

Antibiotics are effective, but they’re not perfect.

Human misuse of antibiotics has already led to some bacteria and viruses developing strong resistance.

What once could be killed with just a tiny bit can now survive even when soaked in antibiotics.

Life continuously evolves.

It’s the same for humans, bacteria, and viruses.

If one day a bacteria or virus emerges that is fundamentally indestructible, then humanity is pretty much doomed.

If humans are so wary of mere antibiotics, then let alone the Sakuragi Hana virus, which has been meticulously developed.

Who can assure that this thing won’t keep evolving and mutating, to the point where it’s impossible to completely eradicate?

In light of this,

what’s there to be polite about?

The second opinion is inclined toward international cooperation.

Just as the wealthy fear death,

developed nations actually fear the destruction of Earth and the extinction of humanity more than poorer or smaller countries.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t bother so much with abolishing nuclear weapons and combating international terrorism.

The current changes in the situation are also due to some countries’ intelligence agencies being overly active.

They’re not only exerting strong pressure, but also ready to take direct military action.

Thinking of holding all of humanity hostage?

Making a fortune out of disaster?

No way!

Push them to the brink, and they’ll preemptively eliminate the threat, leaving none alive.

…

The meeting was chaotic.

Some people supported taking the preemptive approach, while others favored international cooperation.

Eventually, Elder Tan, who was participating in the meeting remotely, made an important directive.

The External Affairs Bureau was to immediately increase their efforts in collecting more high-value intelligence.

While preparing for aggressive action, they were also to collaborate with intelligence agencies from other developed countries with whom they had previous cooperative relationships.

A storm is coming!

Regardless of whether the Sakuragi Hana virus would erupt, they had to make the worst-case scenario plans and preparations.

Once Elder Tan made the decision, everyone naturally started to busily follow the instructions.

Back at the Cybersecurity Department, Wu Jie also participated in an internal work meeting.

Nowadays, with the advancement of online information, people tend to share about events on social platforms like Friends Circle.

One shares with ten, ten share with a hundred, coupled with the media’s race to cover hot topics.

Even trivial matters can quickly go viral on the internet.

So…

Once it breaks out, it will inevitably cause a series of chain reactions online.

Think back to previous incidents of nuclear leaks.

Besides that, Wu Jie was also involved in the plan for economic sanctions.

This plan was to economically cut off the financial sources of the Muto Conglomerate and Rosdelle Auxiliary Business Association.

Money is the driving force!

If they are made penniless, unable to pay salaries, that would surely have a huge impact on their conspiratorial plans.

Acting on orders, Wu Jie started raiding the Rosdelle Auxiliary Business Association’s bank accounts, based on intelligence provided by the External Affairs Bureau.

To ensure a thorough and complete plunder, while also allowing Fang Guozhi to redeem himself.

The Super Cruise Ship Brune naturally became a prime target…
