Chapter 86 The System's Ultimate Decision Mission

"Security department?" Su Wanqing repeated, her tone scrutinizing. "What are you doing here? This is an abandoned factory area, not under your jurisdiction."

The man still had no expression on his face. His sunglasses reflected the dim light of the tunnel, making it impossible to see his eyes clearly.

"We've received reports of unidentified individuals active here, suspected to be related to the loss of control of the first generation of evolution. What are your identities?"

"We are survivors and are looking for shelter." Su Wanqing tried her best to make her voice sound calm, but her nerves were already stretched to the limit.

"Shelter?" The man sneered. "This isn't a shelter, it's a dangerous area. Come with us immediately and cooperate with the investigation."

Just as Su Wanqing was about to deal with the man, the cold voice of the system suddenly rang in her mind.

"Host, the crisis level has been detected. Remaining resources are extremely limited. A virus suppression plan must be implemented immediately. Otherwise, the outbreak will spread exponentially and become uncontrollable."

Su Wanqing's heart sank. She knew the system was telling the truth.

The supplies they have now are simply not enough to support large-scale vaccine production, let alone deal with the impending virus outbreak.

"Host, there are two solutions. Option One: Consume all remaining resources to produce a vaccine and try to control the spread of the virus. Option Two: Consume a small amount of resources to eliminate the specific virus strain in the target's body and eliminate the potential threat."

Su Wanqing's breathing quickened. The target was Lin Che.

The system actually proposed the option of erasing Lin Che's physique!

"System, how many resources are needed to erase Lin Che's physique?" Su Wanqing asked, her voice trembling.

"Erasing the target's physique requires relatively few resources. However, this action will completely eliminate the potential for vaccine development, and the target will revert to normal human status."

Su Wanqing's mind went blank. Erasing Lin Che's physique meant losing the only hope of solving the mystery of the virus.

But if we don’t, the outbreak will kill even more people and plunge the world into despair.

She had to make a choice.

"Su Wanqing, what's wrong?" Lin Che noticed something was wrong with Su Wanqing and asked with concern.

Su Wanqing shook her head and did not tell him the content of the system's task.

She knew that once Lin Che knew the truth, she would definitely choose to sacrifice herself.

"We have to leave here." Su Wanqing said, and she quickly hid the system information. "This person is not a good person. We can't trust him."

As she spoke, she pushed the man beside her away and pulled Lin Che deeper into the tunnel.

"Stop!" the man roared and chased after him.

Su Wanqing and Lin Che ran in the tunnel, with the men chasing them and the roars of the infected bodies behind them.

They must find a safe place as soon as possible to discuss countermeasures.

"Su Wanqing, what exactly happened?" Lin Che asked, his voice a little anxious.

"I...I need your help." Su Wanqing said. She took a deep breath and told Lin Che the content of the system's task.

Lin Che's face paled instantly. He was silent for a long moment before he slowly spoke, "If the vaccine is guaranteed to be successful, I'm willing to accept the option of erasing my own constitution. I don't want to become a hidden danger for the spread of the virus."

Su Wanqing's heart trembled. She knew Lin Che was a kind person, but by doing this, he was giving up everything he had.

"No, I can't let you do this." Su Wanqing said, her voice full of determination, "There must be other ways."

"Su Wanqing, don't be emotional." A low voice suddenly sounded.

Su Wanqing and Lin Che turned and saw a middle-aged man in military uniform approaching. He was tall and strong, with a serious expression, giving off an air of authority that left no room for doubt.

"Who are you?" Su Wanqing asked.

"I'm Professor Yang, the head of the base's research team," the man said. "I've been ordered to assist you."

"Assist?" Su Wanqing sneered, "Your assistance will only put us in greater danger."

"Su Wanqing, don't misunderstand me," Professor Yang said. "We just want to resolve the virus crisis as quickly as possible. Right now, the most important thing is to produce a vaccine and control the spread of the virus. Sacrificing Lin Che is a necessary price."

"What?" Xiao Ran suddenly rushed out, glaring at Professor Yang. "What gives you the right to say such things? Lin Che is our partner. We won't allow you to hurt him!"

Xiao Ran, a former special forces king, has a wild personality and acts decisively. He is the combat force in Su Wanqing's team.

"Xiao Ran, calm down." Su Wanqing said, trying to stop Xiao Ran from being impulsive.

"Calm down? You want me to calm down? This guy actually said he wanted to sacrifice Lin Che. How can I calm down?"

Xiao Ran roared, "I'm telling you, if you dare to touch Lin Che, I will kill you!"

"Xiao Ran, don't push me." Professor Yang's face darkened. "You'd better remember that we represent the interests of the entire base."

"Benefits? What you call benefits is sacrificing innocent people?" Xiao Ran did not show any weakness and confronted Professor Yang.

"Enough!" Su Wanqing shouted, "Calm down! Now is not the time to argue. We must find a solution."

She looked around and saw that the team had started arguing among themselves.

Xiao Ran lost control of his emotions and strongly opposed sacrificing Lin Che, while Professor Yang tended to support vaccine production, and the two sides were deadlocked.

"Su Wanqing, what do you think?" Lu Zhao's voice suddenly came through the communicator.

Su Wanqing took a deep breath and told Lu Zhao about her concerns.

"Su Wanqing, you're too hesitant," Lu Zhao said. "The most important thing right now is to control the spread of the virus. Utilizing the vaccine's energy will prioritize resolving the problem. Sacrificing Lin Che is a necessary price to pay. Don't let your emotions get in the way; consider the overall situation."

Su Wanqing's face turned even paler. She knew Lu Zhao was right, but she couldn't accept the reality of sacrificing Lin Che.

"I understand." Su Wanqing said, her voice trembling slightly.

She hung up the communicator and looked at the arguing crowd, feeling powerless.

"System, scan the cost of erasing Lin Che's virus resistance." Su Wanqing said. She had to know how much it would cost to erase Lin Che's physique.

"Scanning...Erasing the target's physique. The energy required is 15% of the current total energy. This move will completely eliminate the potential for vaccine development."

Su Wanqing's face turned even paler. 15% of their energy was already a huge drain on them.

She looked at Lin Che, his eyes full of determination and trust.

She knew that if she told him the truth, he would definitely choose to sacrifice himself.

"Ye" had warned her that erasing Lin Che's physique might hide a deeper crisis.

She hesitated.

"Su Wanqing, what are you going to do?" Xiao Ran asked, his voice full of anxiety.

Su Wanqing didn't answer. She knew she had to make a difficult decision.
