Chapter 149 Unexpected Discovery

Another wave of 5 parasites were killed with the help of Zu Li and his team.

Only after all the parasites were killed did Zheng Hongyuan finally feel relieved.

"Operation over. All personnel, remain in place and stand guard. Reconnaissance squad, begin reconnaissance. Logistics squad, go and deliver supplies to the kill squad."

Zheng Hongyuan issued the orders methodically, his face beaming with undisguised joy.

The entire operation went very smoothly, thanks to the buffs provided by the Abyss Serpent. No one died from beginning to end; only a few people were affected when the fortress walls were breached. A total of four people were seriously injured.

Song Mingyu used a qi-generating needle to inject into the wound of the injured person. After stopping the bleeding, he began to set the bones.

My hands didn't stop moving, but my heart was filled with emotion.

The Parvia parasite, which had already given their team a hard time, was now being treated like lambs to the slaughter with the team's cooperation, and was being dealt with very clearly.

Their formidable impact, bite force, and high-pressure water jets, which they were so proud of, were completely contained by the fortress and did not cause any effective damage.

This is not difficult to understand. Because such things have happened many times throughout human history.

In a head-on confrontation, a single tiger can overwhelm a group of people, but when humans bring out hunting rifles and vehicles, the tiger can only be toyed with and killed like a plaything.

This is the power of civilization and wisdom.

With a snap, Song Mingyu set the broken bone and subconsciously touched the injured soldier's head. "Hmm! That's great."

Leaving behind a soldier who was gaping in disbelief, Song Mingyu went to another soldier and began treatment.

There are enough people in the logistics department, but this is a rare treatment experience.

Having just begun to explore supernatural powers, she lacked experience; good doctors need to be fed a large number of patients to become truly skilled. After treating these patients, Song Mingyu had some new ideas about how to use magical energy to dispel and heal.

Sophia remained vigilant, observing the festering skin of the distant abyss serpent, wary of any potential enemies.

Meanwhile, on the main battlefield underwater, a large number of logistics personnel were retrieving grappling hooks and nets. These were no ordinary nets; they were specially customized tools developed by the Blue Star United Government, which assembled hundreds of alchemy players to analyze numerous precious items. Not only were they extremely resilient, but they also had enchantments specifically designed to counter behemoths.

The grappling hook, once driven into the ground, can connect with the earth elemental power beneath. The iron net, woven using array formation techniques, weakens enemies once it covers them.

Therefore, all of these things need to be recycled after use. The bigwigs in the joint government's logistics department are waiting for the samples to be sent back for data collection.

With the help of the support staff, Ivan replaced his oxygen cylinder and then sat down to rest with Qi Guohui and the others. They couldn't stay at the scene any longer; the parasite's blood had left the area a mess, and visibility was extremely poor.

Ivan casually picked up a broken spear from the ground; it had been fired from a crossbow bolt inside the fortress. It had been broken in two by the parasite's struggle.

What he held in his hand was the upper half.

To Ivan's surprise, the short spear was also an alchemical artifact, featuring a specially designed bloodletting device in the center and flashing runes. Ivan brought it close to his face and examined it closely.

"Be careful not to hurt yourself. There are runes on this. Once you get blood on it, the runes will activate, creating negative pressure to start drawing blood," Qi Guohui warned.

"How ruthless," Ivan remarked.

"Those people in the logistics R&D department are a bit ruthless, but I like it." Da Zhou smiled like a simple old farmer. "If you like it, you can take it. With some polishing and a wooden handle, this thing can be used as a spear. It's a pretty good piece of equipment."

“It feels like we’re not playing the same game anymore.” Ivan looked the short spear up and down. “This spear, that net, and the prefabricated bunker modules are way beyond what ordinary players can handle. It feels like we explorers won’t be needed for much longer.”

"You're wrong about that. You think it's impressive now because the research and development team has money and time, and there's strength in numbers."

"Once you arrive, what matters is the level of exploration. Excellent explorers can raise the ceiling of civilization. In the extraordinary world, often, if the ceiling is not high enough, no matter how many there are, they are useless."

"Work hard with your brother-in-law, we really think highly of him."

“That’s right, that’s the person my sister has her eye on,” Ivan said with some pride.

Then, Qi Guohui started chatting with Ivan. The clever little brother Ivan started praising, but after talking for a long time, he didn't reveal any useful information.

While they were talking about Zuli, he was now solemnly cutting into the corpse of a parasite.

This was his first time encountering such a giant beast, and he was extremely interested in it. Last time, he wanted to dissect it properly, but he was eaten by the giant snake. This time, before the snake started eating, he seized the time to dissect the parasite.

But the more he dissected it, the more puzzled he became.

He scratched his head in frustration, filled with doubt, and returned to the fortress with the logistics troops.

Sophia looked up at the doorway. Because the movement was abrupt, Zheng Hongyuan realized something and also looked at the doorway.

Immediately afterwards, the door opened, and Su Li entered.

Zheng Hongyuan joked, "That's amazing. Is it tacit understanding? Or a sense of perception?"

Sofia shook her head. "I don't understand, I just feel like he's coming."

The sorceress Wenwen covered her upper lip and chuckled, "It's that, isn't it? A woman's sixth sense of love."

Without thinking, Jingzhe blurted out, "That's terrible, cheating is super easy to get caught."

"I'm amazed that she could think of cheating so quickly," Wenwen said with a look of disgust.

Qi Guohui saw Su Li's expression and clapped his hands. "Alright, listen. Su Li, judging from your expression, have you discovered something?"

“Mm.” Su Li nodded.

Several people stopped smiling and gathered around.

Su Li didn't keep them in suspense and said directly, "This parasite might be man-made."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Humans?" Zheng Hongyuan couldn't help but ask.

Su Li quickly tried to cover it up, saying, "Ah, I misspoke. What I meant was that this creature was created by some kind of life force through interference."

Qi Guohui frowned and asked again, "How confident are you?"

"It's probably close to ten."
