It was a complete display of the excitement of all living beings.

In the end, only Luther's strange behavior caught Maurice's attention.

Everyone else was excitedly doing something, but Luther huddled in the corner, looking gloomy.

"Does this mean he wasn't infected?"

The researchers shook their heads: "No, he is also infected."

"Since he is also infected, why does he behave differently from others? Haven't you investigated this carefully?" Morris raised his question.

"actually……"

The researchers’ attention fell on Morris’s female assistant.

"Ah, me?"

The female assistant pointed at herself in confusion.

"Is there anything inconvenient?" Morris asked.

The researchers replied, "No, that's not it."

He began to explain: "Actually, we noticed him as soon as we arrived. This parasite can arouse the desires in the hearts of every infected person, and this person's greatest desire is to be gay."

"gaoji?"

Morris was taken aback.

and many more.

"You mean that gay guy?"

He poked the air with his finger.

The researchers nodded.

"Uh……"

As expected, the female assistant was stunned, but then she became excited.

Could you describe it in more detail?

Morris immediately turned around and glared at her: "Huh?"

"..."

The female assistant shrank her neck.

The researcher chuckled, "It's alright, it's alright, I was just about to give a detailed explanation. Actually, it's like this: we talked to him and his supervisor, and his supervisor isn't infected, so we gathered some very useful information. This man named Luther has taken a liking to a new member of the team named Sylvie. Although his desires are homosexual, he's surprisingly innocent..."

"emmm..."

Morris was speechless.

The female assistant, on the contrary, became even more excited.

"Where is that Sevier?"

"died."

"died?"

"It's because he died that Luther became like this. He's a very good sample. We parasites are quite adept at controlling consciousness. It's a combination of strong stimulation and subtle influence. Once the parasite has completely merged with the host, it will be very difficult for us to tell whether he is infected or not."

“It looks dangerous,” Morris said.

"Yes, Simon is also a very good witness. He saw the tentacles formed by the parasites slap onto the spaceship, and his companions were infected one by one, but in the end he was lucky enough to survive. His luck is incredible."

luck?

Morris suddenly sensed something was wrong.

The researchers explained, "There were two monsters in the Star Road at the time. The Crimson King blocked the expedition's path, while the other Star Beast attacked the expedition. Fortunately, the Star Beast and the Parasite were entangled, and Simon and the others were rescued."

Fortunately?

Morris became increasingly puzzled.

“There are other suspicious…”

Before he could finish speaking, the virtual screen that appeared in front of him suddenly trembled. After the black and white lines flickered a few times, the entire image disappeared.

"How is this going?"

The researchers immediately shouted.

The lights in the hallway were still on, but the network signal lights on the wall had turned red.

"Drip drip..."

Morris quickly glanced at the miniature communicator in his hand, which was currently experiencing signal instability.

"Has a mechanic hacked in?"

Morris looked around.

At that moment, a person dressed as a staff member hurriedly ran over from a distance.

"Something terrible has happened!" he shouted.

"What's wrong?"

The staff shouted, "The hyperspace signal station is gone! All the hyperspace signal stations around here are gone! We've lost contact with other places, and due to the collapse of the signal station, the internal database is malfunctioning. It will take at least half an hour to recover."

The researchers were momentarily stunned.

Morris muttered to himself, "It seems things are much more complicated than I thought."

When the researcher came to his senses, he said, "I'm afraid I can't be of much help here. Could I see Simon and Luther?"

The researchers' minds were completely elsewhere.

"Please do as you please."

Morris nodded in satisfaction.

After that, he met separately with his assistant, Luther, and Simon.

It was already sunset when I came out of the research institute.

Morris looked up at the sky: "I've found some clues."

"Huh?"

The female assistant was immediately startled.

Morris analyzed, "There are several suspicious points in this incident. First, there's the resurrected Crimson King, which might be related to Bridges, but it's hard to say. Then there's the Starry Sky Beast. Logically speaking, Starry Sky Beasts shouldn't appear in the Star Path. I just talked to Simon, and he told me that there were no Starry Sky Beasts in the Star Path before he fell into a coma. Information from other places also confirms this."

Morris paused for a moment: "The Starry Sky Beast targeted Simon and his group as soon as it appeared, but eventually it fought with the Parasite Beast. Rather than saying that its target was Simon and his group, I think its target from the beginning was the Parasite Beast, otherwise Simon and his group would have had virtually no chance of escaping."

The female assistant nodded repeatedly.

Lord Maurice is always so clever.

"This is very interesting. Why would the Starry Sky Beast appear at this time? Could it be that it's here to rescue Simon and the others? Also..."

Morris began to jot down the key points that came to mind.

"Besides Luther and Simon, I found that Sevier to be a very interesting person."

"Oh?"

"After Luther was parasitized, he and Simon were the only two people who were not parasitized. Simon then fainted, but he not only did not die, but he was also not parasitized. On the contrary, Sylvie disappeared. It is said that she died, but in fact she just disappeared."

Morris quickly typed something new into his notebook.

The female assistant touched her hair: "..."

That's completely irrelevant.

Who can prove he's not dead?

Maybe they fell into the star path and died in the explosion.

"Let's go."

Morris, along with his female assistant, embarked on an investigation.

He retrieved surveillance data from multiple locations.

Carefully track every step Sylvie takes after arriving on this planet.

"It seems the only places where we can replace the players are here and on the way here."

In the darkness, Maurice looked up at the towering building.

He shook his head, but unfortunately, too much time had passed, making it extremely difficult to continue following this lead.

The female assistant asked, "Since Morris assaulted someone, should we continue the investigation?"

Morris waved his hand.

Let's call it a day.

But instead of leaving immediately, he began to record new things in his notebook.

The connection between the Crimson Lord and Bridges

[Possibility 10...]

Boom!

Suddenly, a violent explosion rang out in the sky.

The moment Maurice looked up, a zero suddenly appeared after the number 10 in his notebook.

Morris stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief.

His body... began to break down.

Collapse like grains of sand, and eventually those grains of sand also curl inward and turn into nothingness.

Boom boom boom—

The flame flashed and disappeared in an instant.
