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

Shen Ge remained silent.

Not many people knew about his situation, and Li Xiang was one of them.

However, both Deng Yuqi and Li Xiang only knew a rough idea and were not clear about the strange relationship between Shen Ge and the ancestor.

But what Li Xiang said now meant that he was reminding Shen Ge to be "low-key", otherwise he would be in trouble if the headquarters found out.

Unfortunately, Li Xiang didn't know that as the place most severely infiltrated by the Monster Association, some people at the headquarters might have already known that he was a "product" of the Monster Association.

Of course, this was just the Monster Association mistakenly thinking that Shen Ge was created by them, not that he had strangely merged with the Original Ancestor from the very beginning.

However, when Li Xiang proposed the conclusion that "the Monster Organization may be able to solve the current dilemma of the monsters and create perfect monsters", there was an uproar in the laboratory.

Everyone knows exactly what this situation means.

Just as the female monster said, the biggest reason why these monsters who call themselves "new humans" have not been exposed to the public is that monsters are a "minority" compared to humans in this world after all.

The monsters' power has not yet reached the level where their high-level weird bodies can withstand nuclear bombs. If an all-out war really breaks out, the monsters will definitely be the losers.

Therefore, the Twelve Zodiac Signs chose to "retreat behind the scenes", the Heavenly Stems chose to "bet the future on the next civilization", and the Monster Association chose to "forbearance" and "assimilation".

The choices of the three major monster organizations are different, but they are all limited by the "weaknesses" of the monsters, which is the issue of lifespan and reproduction.

If, as Li Xiang said, this new type of monster can perfectly integrate humans and strange cells, it means that Shen Ge is no longer the only "perfect monster". If the problems of lifespan and reproduction are overcome, then the monster can really be called a "new human."

Apart from possessing strange powers, everything else is the same as humans. So it is only a matter of time before the "new humans" replace humans and become the masters of this world.

"But..." A researcher said hesitantly, "Will this fusion still have certain side effects? For example, completely losing reason and consciousness like the weird? You see, although under the microscope, the two cell activities seem to be 'coexisting peacefully', in fact, every once in a while, the weird cells will devour a small part of human cells."

"Although it is different from the previous state of 'devouring', this only slows down the speed of devouring. It cannot be said that it has achieved perfect fusion, right?"

Professor Wang nodded and said, "You are right. I think this is exactly the direction that the monsters need to study. The sample that Captain Shen brought back is very important. It seems to be in a special state. It is neither completely human nor completely a monster. It is a state of... 'symbiosis' that has never appeared before. It is like... well, to give an inappropriate example, a chicken and a duck 'peacefully coexist' in the body of a goose, forming a delicate balance."

"Wait, Professor Wang, what you mean is that in addition to the original human individuals and the colonized strange cells, there is a third component in the strange samples that Captain Shen brought back?" the researcher asked in surprise.

"Yes, from what we have observed so far, this is indeed the case. So my expectation is that since the Monster Organization wants to seek a breakthrough from this new type of fusion monster and find a solution to the problem of monster lifespan and reproduction, we can also work on this and find a way to prevent human cells from being devoured, or even study antibodies and inhibitors to kill the colonized strange cells." Professor Wang became more and more excited as he spoke, and Professor Jiang, who is an "authority" in monster research in the Special Initiatives Department, nodded in agreement.

Professor Wang’s meaning was very simple. Not only the experts who studied the weird, but even Shen Ge, a “layman”, understood it.

Simply put, treat "weirdos" like viruses, and then develop antibodies and inhibitors specifically for them.

Just imagine if the anti-monster warriors injected this inhibitor into the monster's body during a battle, helping the human cells in the monster's body defeat the strange cells. After killing these strange cells, even if the monster survived by chance, it would turn back into a human.

Apart from anything else, the ghost warriors may not have much chance of winning against high-level ghosts, but when facing monsters who have lost their ghost powers, the situation immediately reverses!
The senior researcher who had raised the question earlier said thoughtfully: "So, this could be a breakthrough for us to deal with the weirdos?"

"That's right!"

Professor Wang continued excitedly: "If we can figure out the mechanism of this fusion, maybe we can find a way to control or even reverse the problem of strange colonization!"

Professor Wang was obviously completely immersed in the world of research and immediately started working on it with Professor Jiang and others.

Shen Ge and Li Xiang looked at each other and left the laboratory tacitly.

"What do you think?" Li Xiang asked.

Shen Ge complained: "It's a good thing you didn't add Yuan Fang. But... I always feel that things are not that simple. Whether it's the Twelve Zodiacs or the Monster Association, they seem to be in conflict and split up, but in fact, the existence of monsters as a minority means that they must stick together."

"So I have always suspected that they are giving us the illusion of 'internal fighting' on the surface, but in fact they are united... Of course, it does not represent all aspects, it may only be in the breakthrough of freak research. After all, for them, short lifespan and inability to reproduce are fatal problems."

Li Xiang nodded and said, "Indeed, I also think there must be some problems that we haven't thought of. After all, if we really find a way to suppress it, it means that the monsters will always be at a disadvantage when facing us. This is fatal to the monsters. They can't be so stupid."

"However, I also have a guess. It is because of you that the Special Initiatives Department has obtained much more research data and samples than the Monster Organization over the years. You have to know that the research data you brought back are all things from the 'future'. In other words, they are data that the Monster Organization has not yet developed."

"So I'm wondering... maybe the weirdos hiding in the headquarters are aware of this and are deliberately 'showing good will' by handing over the data they have to us so that we can do research. This will help them avoid detours when we have results."

Shen Ge looked at Li Xiang with a strange expression when he heard this. Li Xiang looked puzzled and couldn't help asking, "What's with that expression? What I said is possible, right?"

"No, I'm not questioning your guess. On the contrary, I agree with it very much. Because when the leaders of the twelve tribes handed the things to me, I thought they wanted us to work for free and continue their research for them." Shen Ge said in a serious tone.

Li Xiang glanced at Shen Ge and sighed, "Working for free? Come on, you have already received 1 billion yuan, and as far as I know, this is still 'legal property'."

"You know all this?" Shen Ge was a little surprised. After all, he had only told Deng Yuqi about this. He didn't expect that even Li Xiang knew about it so soon.

Li Xiang saw what Shen Ge was thinking and explained, "It wasn't the minister who told us, but... before you reported to the minister, the headquarters had already sent an email asking why your account was abnormal. You also know that people of our level will be under detection by the headquarters unless they deliberately tamper with the accounts. Not to mention 10 billion, even a secret account of tens of dollars may be discovered at any time." Shen Ge said thoughtfully, "Then you are wrong. Although I didn't deliberately tamper with it, classmate Xiao Qi did some 'protection' for several of my more secret accounts, and the account where the female monster made the payment happened to be one of them. Tsk tsk, I didn't expect that the monster organization could find it so quickly, and even the headquarters could detect it so quickly... It's interesting."

At this time, Xiao Qi suddenly said, "Sorry, Master, I am reflecting on it."

"Don't say that, Xiaoqi. I'm not blaming you. Although you are the most advanced artificial intelligence in the world, you have not reached the level of Skynet. If it is really like Skynet in "Terminator", then you are not an artificial intelligence, but a real 'God'." Shen Ge smiled and joked. In his opinion, modern warfare can control the existence of the entire network. The Skynet in the movie does not even need to send Terminators back to terminate the human leader. It is an unsolvable existence.

So even though Xiao Qi did some "covering" for his account, it was still discovered by the Monster Organization and the headquarters, but Shen Ge didn't care too much.

"But there is another possibility... that is, the Twelve Branches informed the headquarters in advance. This brings us back to my guess that the three major weird organizations are actually one and the same, and have a close relationship with the headquarters." Shen Ge's eyes darkened slightly, and he spoke in a serious tone.

Li Xiang fell into deep thought after hearing this, and it was obvious that he also thought what Shen Ge said was right.

"Captain Shen, Minister Li! I finally found you." At this time, Li Yi, one of the three little ones, ran over with a few folders.

"Is there something wrong?" Shen Ge asked.

Li Yi said, "The minister is holding a captain-level meeting, but you two don't have communicators with you, so the phone can't get through. I heard that you were in the laboratory, so I rushed over."

"Sorry to ask you to make the trip. We'll be there soon." Shen Ge said.

Li Yi smiled and said, "It's okay. This is the theme of this meeting. You two can take a look at it first. It is mainly about the handling of this experimental accident and the new type of fusion monster. This one is for Minister Li, and this one is for you, Captain Shen."

Shen Ge took the file and took a look. He immediately understood why Li Yi specifically stated which copy belonged to whom, because there was a note written by Deng Yuqi on it. There were only two words on it -

Be careful with your words.

Shen Ge felt a little strange when he saw the note. Deng Yuqi would not remind him to be careful with his words for no reason. Was he asking him to deal with the incident of this strange man or... the matter of going to Australia?
When Shen Ge and Li Xiang arrived at the meeting room, they found that in addition to the cadres and team leaders of Rong City's Special Policy Department, there were actually several unfamiliar faces.

The person sitting in the middle was not a stranger. He was Luo Chenguang, one of the few captains he knew in the Dajing Special Strategy Department and who had worked with him during the strange disaster in Yuzhou.

Although Luo Chenguang is not as strong as Fang Mingyue, his family background is more powerful than Fang Mingyue's. In addition, influenced by the incident of Mr. Fang, Luo Chenguang's current rank is one level higher than Fang Mingyue.

His arrival here proves that someone from Dajing has come.

A strange incident happened in Rong City yesterday afternoon. At the meeting early this morning, people from Dajing were already sitting in the conference room. No wonder Deng Yuqi specifically reminded him to "be careful with your words", which was obviously directed at him.

As expected, at the beginning of the meeting, the people from Dajing took the initiative to attack, mainly because of -

"Why did Rong City have peace for several months, but such a serious and strange incident happened as soon as Captain Shen returned? Is this a coincidence, or is there some other reason?"

"After the regional blockade, why did they insist on letting Captain Shen, who had just recovered from his injuries, go into the sub-shares alone to search, while the Weird Energy Mecha Troops stayed outside?"

"Why is there an extra 10 billion in Captain Shen's account? And every payment is legal and compliant. It's too normal, which is what's abnormal!"

"Captain Shen was able to resolve this strange incident on his own, which means there is nothing wrong with his health. Why did the Australian Assistance Headquarters keep delaying when they wanted Captain Shen to take action?"

"..."

After hearing this, Shen Ge finally understood.

To put it bluntly, when Australia asked the world for help against the evil organization, the Asian branch threw the problem to the current leader of Asia, the Great China.

At that time, Shen Ge happened to be trapped in the strange space, so the headquarters wanted to let Lin Yin go, but was stopped by Deng Yuqi.

Later, Shen Ge came back and the headquarters wanted to send Shen Ge again. Considering Shen Ge's health problems, Deng Yuqi repeatedly declined.

After this strange incident happened, the headquarters immediately seized the opportunity to make trouble. To put it bluntly, they didn't want to contribute manpower and effort, and threw the mess to Shen Ge to solve.

If it were in the past, Deng Yuqi would definitely find a way to refuse directly, but this time Shen Ge privately explained to him the agreement reached with the Twelve Branches, and since Cheng's mother was implicated, Shen Ge would definitely choose to go.

boom!
Shen Ge slapped the table and interrupted the headquarters specialist who was making trouble. Suddenly the conference room fell silent and the specialist who was speaking swallowed nervously.

"Stop chattering like a group of ducks. It's giving me a headache. There's no point in saying more. I just want to ask you one question: do you want me to solve Australia's problems?" Shen Ge glanced at the opposite side, and the Dajing commissioners suddenly felt a chill on their backs.

They suddenly had a strange feeling. If the answers they gave now did not satisfy Shen Ge, they would be eaten alive by the evil ghost in front of them in the next second.

"This...this." The commissioner had never experienced such an aura before and immediately began to stutter nervously.

At this time, Luo Chenguang, who had been silent since the beginning of the meeting, said seriously: "That's what they meant. After all, the problem in Australia may be more serious than the previous disasters in Sakura and South Korea. The headquarters doesn't want to lose a few captains like they did when supporting the Sakura disaster, so they want to throw this mess to the 'first pair of strange detectives in the Great Celestial Empire', that is, you, Captain Shen."
