Infinity: Kill your way through the movie world.
Chapter 1228 Shocked Everyone
"It's not that I'm unwilling to distribute it for free, but there are only so many resources available, and even the most skilled cook can't make a meal without rice."
"But our powerlessness in the face of the demonic tide is something we must confront and consider, because it is a crisis of survival that is almost impossible to resolve with existing technology and limited supernatural resources."
His words were like a key, unlocking the hazy fog in everyone's hearts.
They vaguely sensed that Wu Heng was plotting something, a plan that could change everything, but the idea was too bold and too vague for them to grasp.
All eyes were fixed intently on Wu Heng, waiting for him to reveal the answer.
"Dean." Wu Heng stopped and looked at Dean, who was deep in thought.
"Yes, I'm here!" Dean snapped back to reality, snapping out of his reverie and quickly replied.
"Do you remember the 'future' projection that the angel Zachary threw you into? What you saw and heard there?" Wu Heng prompted.
“Of course I remember!” Dean’s voice trembled slightly, as if the experience had left a mark on him. “The city was reduced to ruins, and everywhere was filled with people infected with the ‘Klotoran’ virus, who had become half-human and half-demon, madmen who had lost their minds and only knew how to kill. It was simply hell.”
Wu Heng nodded, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes:
"That experience, besides the despair, also gave me an inspiration."
"That kind of demonic virus can massively alter the human physique in a very short time, giving them superhuman strength, speed, and even regenerative abilities, albeit at the cost of losing their sanity."
"What if we could resolve the sanity loss side effect of the virus and only retain or even optimize the power boost it provides?"
He paused and said word by word:
"Therefore, this terrible virus will become a kind of enhancement drug that can be mass-produced and allows ordinary people to also gain the power to fight against demons."
boom!
These words were like a mental bomb dropped into a barn. Everyone was stunned, their eyes wide with disbelief as they stared at Wu Heng.
Dean was initially shocked, then it was as if a lightning bolt had struck his mind, and he instantly realized: "I understand!"
"Viruses and plagues are essentially diseases that cause illness in the body. If the path of this illness is benign or even aggravating, then it is evolution!"
"And the Plague Knight... he is the supreme expert in this field. He can create destructive plagues, and theoretically, he can create 'evolving' plagues!"
Everyone understood.
Wu Heng went through all this trouble, allowing the Plague Knight to 'research' in the sanatorium. His goal wasn't simply to stop him, but to steal his research results and even guide his research direction, so as to create a key for the Witcher Guild and all of humanity that could mass-produce 'super soldiers'!
After the initial shock, Sam quickly regained his composure, and a deep worry appeared on his face: "This is too risky! This is playing with fire! If it gets out of control, we might not be saving the world, but accelerating its destruction! And why would the Plague Knight conduct research according to our wishes? He's Lucifer's henchman!"
He asked the most crucial question.
This was also a concern in the minds of Jack and the others, but Sam voiced it first.
Wu Heng looked at Sam, his eyes filled with a calm confidence that suggested he was in complete control: "The risk does exist, so we need absolute control and safety measures. As for why the Plague Knight would 'cooperate'..."
He slowly walked back to the barrel and sat down, beginning to explain his hidden layout.
“I did not make direct contact with him, as that would be too risky and could easily be detected by Lucifer or the ‘eyes’ behind him.”
“What I did was to use some ‘accidental’ information leaks, such as having ‘internet addicts’ filter and anonymously send some vague data about extreme survivalism, the paradox of biological evolution, and even the viral augmentation in that ‘future’ fragment that Dean experienced.”
"This information will, through certain coincidences, flow into the information network that the Plague Knight is highly concerned about."
"At the same time, I also had some low-level evil spirits that were completely controlled discuss, 'unintentionally,' the rumors that the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse were used and discarded by Lucifer at a specific time and place!"
"And if the knights could master a vast power that even Lucifer couldn't easily control, a power belonging to the 'human level,' could they escape the possibility of being puppets?"
Wu Heng's tone was completely flat, as if he were stating an experimental report.
"The Plague Knight is a mad scientist."
“His obsession with disease and evolution transcends everything, and the ‘inspirations’ and ‘possibilities’ I offer are like sparks thrown into dry tinder.”
"Based on his own logic and desires, he naturally began to think and research in this direction. He thought this was a 'new continent' he had discovered, an excellent opportunity to break free from control and even take control of the situation."
“As for the batch of virus vaccines in the Chicago warehouse,” Wu Heng looked at Dean and Sam, “that was his previous research direction, and it was indeed harmful. But even if you didn’t intervene to intercept it, the person in charge of contacting the buyer of that batch of vaccines was David Xavier in disguise.”
"That batch of vaccines could never have been leaked!"
At this point, all the clues were connected.
Why did Wu Heng remain inactive despite knowing the location all along? Why did he block the news, even from Dean and Sam? Why did he allow the Plague Knight to 'work' for a week?
Everything was to give the Plague Knight enough time, without his own awareness, to complete the research that would change the fate of humanity, guided by the 'inspiration' carefully crafted by Wu Heng.
The barn was completely silent.
As everyone digested this massive amount of information, their initial bewilderment, shock, and doubt gradually transformed into a sudden understanding and an irrepressible excitement mixed with tension and hope!
Wu Heng's gaze swept over the crowd again, finally settling on the direction of the Tranquil Valley Sanatorium in the distance, his voice icy:
"Now, his research should have reached a critical moment, or rather, it has yielded preliminary and unstable results."
“Our task is not to interrupt him, but to ‘accept’ it and ensure that the whole process is under our absolute control.”
"Sarah, Jack, have your people continue to maintain perimeter security. Activate all shielding and jamming devices to ensure no information leaks out, especially to avoid attracting the attention of Lucifer or Michael."
"Dean, Sam, Bobby, Castio, you guys come with me. We need to confirm the results with our own eyes and be prepared for anything unexpected, including possibly 'persuading' the Plague Knight to hand over his research data." (End of Chapter)
