The system is four years ahead of schedule, but Weird is still a cub.

Chapter 468 At this time, the pressure was on Shen Ge...

However, Shen Ge, who was still in the underground parking lot dealing with the "matrix", did not know that the pressure had quietly come upon him.

Although Shen Ge insisted on entering the underground parking lot with an "injured body" and refused Gui Neng's assistance to the Gui troops, Deng Yuqi naturally would not put all the burdens on Shen Ge.

Now the danger in the research area has been temporarily suppressed. The entire research area accounts for about one-tenth of the Special Policy Department of Rong City. The fact that it has not spread means that the situation is still under control.

The next thing to do is to deploy defenses in the city in advance to prevent the monster organization from taking advantage of this time to make the situation worse and turn a strange incident into a strange disaster.

"The city's emergency plan must be activated immediately. At the same time, we need to find a way to deal with this infection as quickly as possible." The Director of the Operations Department of the Special Policy Department said in a deep voice.

At this moment, Yuner suddenly stood up and said, "Wait! When we were rescuing the data, we found that the fungus blanket monsters took the initiative to attack the computer room. At that time, Captain Yu felt that they seemed to know which things were more important, so I paid special attention to those processors. According to the number, I remember that it was an encrypted file of the research department, which might require Li Xiang's permission to open."

"Let me see."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Yuner. Professor Wang stood up, took the data disk and inserted it into the computer. After starting the backup server, he opened the encrypted file: "Indeed... This is the highest level of encryption. What is the thing that the Fungal Blanket Monster wants to destroy? What could it be?"

The more Professor Wang thought about it, the more strange it seemed. His authority in the Special Policy Department was second only to Li Xiang, but the deputy minister was Professor Jiang, who was more experienced than him and was also Li Xiang's teacher.

However, Professor Wang's main focus is on the research of base defense systems combined with ghost energy, and he is slightly inferior to Li Xiang and his team in the research of ghosts.

Therefore, even though he had sufficient authority to access these encrypted files, due to his different responsibilities, he did not take the initiative to understand the contents of these encrypted files.

"Contact Li Xiang immediately." The head of the operations department ordered.

Deng Yuqi nodded and agreed to the instructions of the operations director, and continued: "At the same time, we need to formulate a comprehensive defense plan. Professor Wang, you are more familiar with the base defense, so I will leave it to you. As for the inhibitors of this new type of monster, the people in the research department will sort it out first. I have contacted Li Xiang and Jiang Peiwen, and their team will be here within two hours."

Due to the "high incidence" of experimental accidents caused by Li Xiang, Deng Yuqi asked him and Jiang Peiwen's team to stay at the Quanlongshan base permanently, and asked Lin Yin to guard it to prevent any problems.

Although it would be safer to send the samples of the fungal monster that caused the experimental accident to the Quanlongshan base for research, this involves control and the possibility of further mutation. It is obviously more conducive to the configuration of targeted inhibitors to obtain samples nearby.

Furthermore, given the situation with the fungal mat monster, we dare not send it to the Quanlongshan base again. If another experimental accident happens, it will be equivalent to losing the Quanlongshan base.

There is also a research building at the headquarters of the Special Policy Department in Rong City, which was previously used by Li Xiang. It is fully equipped with everything. Although it is not as advanced as the one at the Quanlongshan base, it is sufficient to configure inhibitors.

It was late at night, but the several buildings of the Special Policy Department of Rong City were still brightly lit.

Everyone is well aware that they are racing against time.

As the Special Policy Department of Rong City launched the highest level emergency plan, the entire Rong City entered a state of complete blockade. The military established multiple defense lines outside the city, and strict checkpoints were set up at all entrances and exits.

Two years have passed. Since the last strange disaster in Luhu Water City, there have been almost no large-scale strange incidents in Rong City. It was once hailed as the safest city in the Great Celestial Empire.

Who would have thought that just one month after Shen Ge came back, he had already activated the highest level emergency plan, which inevitably caused some "seniors" in the Special Policy Department to have some strange emotions.

"Attention all citizens, please return home immediately, close doors and windows, and wait for further notice..." the city broadcasting system kept repeating.

Fortunately, there are ghost mecha troops stationed in every block of the city, and the ghost warriors are guided in an orderly manner, so there is no panic.

At the Special Policy Department headquarters, Deng Yuqi was busy in the command center.

"Is the drone unit in place?" she asked into the communicator.

"It has been deployed, and we are currently scanning the entire city for strange energy, looking for any abnormal strange energy points. So far, except for the shopping mall area and the underground research area of ​​the headquarters, no strange energy abnormal points have been found." The technician answered while operating the console.

Just then, as several cars drove into the Special Policy Department, Li Xiang and his team arrived.

"Sorry for being late." Li Xiang said briefly: "We have also found some clues. Let's not talk about this for now. You said there is an encrypted file that requires my permission?"

Professor Wang nodded and immediately called up the encrypted file. Li Xiang entered a complex password and the file was finally opened.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the screen. As the contents of the document gradually appeared, people gasped in surprise in the conference room.

"This... This is the record of human experiments conducted by the Dajing Research Institute!" a researcher exclaimed.

More than a decade ago, the Haiya Research Institute conducted research on deep-sea humanoid weird cells and ancestral weird cells and human body fusion weird cells. That experimental accident was the first fourth-order weird event in the Great Celestial Empire.

Although today, more than ten years later, let alone a fourth-order monster, even fourth-order and fifth-order weirdness would not cause the same shock as it did back then.

This incident almost caused a reshuffle of the entire top management at that time, and it was from that time that the Special Policy Department really got on the right track.

But this is the "dark history" of the Special Initiative Department after all. Therefore, when the strange disaster occurred in Dajing, the first thing the Special Initiative Department gave up was the experimental area where the human experiments of the Haiya Research Institute were hidden. They even activated the self-destruct mode in an attempt to eliminate all traces.

I thought these "dark histories" would disappear along with the strange disaster, but I didn't expect to run into Shen Ge, who not only went into the disaster area alone, but also brought these "dark histories" back. However, at that time, the Special Strategy Department of Rong City was still in its infancy, and its strength was far inferior to that of the Special Strategy Department of Dajing. Therefore, the team headed by Li Xiang extracted the useful parts of the information brought back by Shen Ge and sealed the "dark history" of the Special Strategy Department for storage.

But I didn't expect that because of this accident, this matter would be brought to the surface again.

The researchers were discussing the research data on the screen, while the senior officials of the Special Policy Department had serious expressions. Apparently, even Deng Yuqi had not expected that Li Xiang had "forgotten" such an important thing.

Although Deng Yuqi also knew that there was such a file on human experiments, the research on ghosts was left to Li Xiang, and she didn't think about the matter in that direction.

Li Xiang looked at the screen thoughtfully, but he was thinking of some information Shen Ge brought back: "Minister, do you remember the information about the weird organization that Old Shen brought back recently? They have been insisting on combining weird cells with human cells to try to create the most perfect 'weird'."

"Captain Shen Yun mentioned that when she was rescuing the computer room, the fungus blanket monsters attacked the servers first as if they had a target, as if they knew which things were more important."

"What do you think... could it be that the Monster Organization knew that we still had such a human experiment report in our hands, and wanted to take advantage of this experimental accident to..."

"Minister Li!" Deng Yuqi interrupted Li Xiang's speculation upon hearing this. It was not that Li Xiang's analysis was unreasonable, on the contrary, his analysis was too reasonable.

But if we continue discussing this topic, it will be very dangerous.

This means that the higher-ups have been in contact with the monster organization, and they even want to take this opportunity to erase these "black histories" and completely whitewash the monsters hiding behind the scenes.

Deng Yuqi changed the subject and said, "Weirds and freaks have always been the two biggest threats to humanity. The former are powerful individually, but fortunately they do not have high intelligence. As for the latter, because human and weird cells cannot be perfectly combined, their strength is not as good as that of weirds, and there are problems with reproduction and ability."

"But now with the emergence of fungal blanket monsters, the monsters have infinitely magnified their individual abilities by spreading fungal blankets, and have perfectly combined them with parasitic weirdness. This has also made the monsters, which have always been less threatening than weirdness, become extremely difficult to deal with."

"Right now, the most important thing for us is to quickly research and develop an inhibitor to suppress the strange energy of this weirdo, control the disaster, and then consider other things."

"Minister Li, do you have any idea?"

Before Li Xiang could answer, Jiang Peiwen on the side spoke first: "These human experiment research data... are too amazing. Not only did they successfully fuse monster cells and human genes, they also developed a way to control these monsters."

Most people in the conference room were focusing on the screen playing the research report, and when they heard Jiang Peiwen's words, they immediately turned their eyes to her.

"Control?" Deng Yuqi grasped the key point sharply: "Wait, are you saying that these fungus blanket monsters are controlled?"

Jiang Peiwen nodded, then signaled Professor Wang to let her use the console, and then manipulated the console to call out several data separately: "On the way here, we have already seen the sample observation report that caused this experimental accident, as well as the extraction data of the monster cells. At first, I thought these arrangements always made me feel weird, but after seeing this monster research data, everything suddenly became clear."

"First, we need to understand two key issues. First, humans are repelled by weird energy and cannot absorb weird energy through themselves, so they can only implant monster cells and achieve the ability to control weird energy in a half-human, half-weird state. Second, because weirdness does not have higher intelligence and consciousness, it is impossible for humans to control weirdness through methods such as domestication."

"So the Monster Organization developed a 'new species', which is the high-level monster we are most familiar with, the 'fusion monster'. They can fuse with weird things and even buildings, allowing their flesh and blood to cover the target, thus achieving the effect of 'becoming one'."

"Although these fusion monsters are almost indistinguishable from the weird, according to this 'human experiment research report', they still have certain instincts and consciousness. This is also why many of the parasites whose heads exploded will repeat their actions in life."

"Then combined with the observation data of the fungal blanket monster this time, I have reason to suspect that the 'mother' monster we brought out from the underground parking lot did this on purpose, and then remotely controlled the child to transmit information and locate it, and then launched the attack."

Although Jiang Peiwen's inference still has some flaws, the general direction is not wrong, because when Shen Ge controlled "Dashan" at the beginning, he first let the fifth-level fusion monster merge with "Dashan", and then used the power of dreams to modify the consciousness of the fusion monster to achieve the effect of control.

So Jiang Peiwen actually had this idea in the report about Shen Lin and the "big whale" that Shen Ge brought back this time, but she had no experimental subjects to study. At this moment, combined with the observation samples of the fungus blanket monster and various data, she thought of this problem at the first time.

In the past two years, the Special Initiatives Department's strange equipment has been constantly updated. They are constantly improving, and the monsters are also constantly improving.

Judging from the fact that the mother body can remotely control the actions of the child body, the weirdo will probably never encounter a weird lower-level situation again.

Professor Wang pushed his glasses and thought seriously about what Jiang Peiwen said, then said, "So, whether this strange incident can be successfully resolved in the end depends on whether Captain Shen can successfully defeat the mother body. As long as the mother body survives, the offspring will continue to reproduce."

A researcher immediately raised a question after hearing this: "That's not right. When we evacuated the research area, the detector clearly detected that the extension speed of the fungal blanket had slowed down. Doesn't this mean that the fungal blanket monster has reached its maximum reproduction number?"

"Not necessarily. Maybe they are waiting for orders from their mother." Li Xiang pondered.

Yuner heard a key message from this: "The child needs the mother's command to move. The extension of the child has stopped. Doesn't this mean that Captain Shen has successfully suppressed the mother, making it unable to take care of the situation here?"

Li Xiang nodded and said, "That's understandable, but whether it's Lao Shen's success or the calm before the storm, we can't put all the pressure on Lao Shen. My suggestion is that we seize the opportunity to study inhibitors against fungal blanket monsters, and the Information Department tries to contact the Guineng Anti-Gui Force and have them try to convey our conclusions to Lao Shen."

At this time, the head of the Operations Department said, "I agree with Minister Li's suggestion. We really can't put the heavy burden on Captain Shen alone. My suggestion is to dispatch the Weird Energy Mecha Unit and have several captains wear Weird Energy Nano Armor and lead the team into the blockade to support Captain Shen."

"reject!"

Deng Yuqi said in a deep voice: "Since Shen Ge has clearly stated that no one should be sent in before hearing from him, then we should follow his wishes."

"Is this the time to show off your personal heroism?" the Operations Minister said angrily.
