Technological practice: leading the human race to the stars

Chapter 78 The culprit
"Yes, that's right, urgent news, top secret level, the severity of the situation is S+ level." He paced back and forth in the room while anxiously dialing the phone, racing against time.

The development of this matter has exceeded his expectations, making him feel unprecedented pressure and anxiety. He knows that he must take action as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

After he finished making all the calls, he remembered that Yuan Ze was still beside him, and suddenly remembered something: "Brother Sun Zeyuan, I heard that you helped Li Haisheng. Now the situation is extremely urgent. I ask you to help us make a connection."

Although Haisheng Industrial was founded not long ago, its medical companies have achieved remarkable results. From launching a genetic disease root treatment based on CRISPR gene editing tools, to super AI medical diagnostic instruments, to virtual reality treatments, each technology is a disruptive innovation.

Especially the last technology, which allows patients to receive treatment in a time-compressed virtual reality, repeating the experiment to find the best solution. Li Haisheng even announced that the ultimate goal of this technology is to achieve complete simultaneous healing of virtual and real life, that is, after the patient is cured in the virtual space, his real body will also recover synchronously.

Yuan Ze also knew this information, so he naturally understood Commander Chen's intention. Soon, Yuan Ze received a positive reply from his master, saying that he would send a team of the most elite medical team and the most advanced equipment to YN01 Mechanical City to cooperate with the military in carrying out work.

"Sun Zeyuan, you really helped a lot this time." Commander Chen rubbed his eyes and finally found a moment to rest and talk about something a little more relaxing. "If it weren't for you, I guess we would still be at a loss now."

"These are what I should do. In fact, these methods and ideas were taught to me by a friend of mine in an elite training camp. He is a truly amazing person."

"Oh? Your friend?" Commander Chen raised his eyebrows curiously. "He is indeed not a simple person. He should be trained by the Chinese government."

Yuanze smiled and said, "Indeed, my friend is really smart. He even asked me for a favor."

"Tell me, I can help you with anything within my authority."

"He also participated in this mission, but his rank is not high, and it is risky for him to participate in various missions. Why don't you just approve it and count it as a mission pass?"

"That's no problem. What's your friend's name? I'll just ask the supervisor to give him a task to pass."

"His name is Yuan Ze."

"Ah? Send it to me." He looked at the photo and name, a little surprised, then smiled, "No wonder you two can become good brothers, it's really fate."

"He's outside right now, having just finished his patrol mission. How about you go meet him?"

"Okay, okay, it's true that heroes have always emerged from youth. It would be great if China had more young talents like you. It's a pity that some people..."

"Sun Zeyuan" thus sent Commander Chen's authorization to "Yuanze", invited him in, exchanged some pleasantries, and then he continued to carry out his mission.

Yuan Ze didn't say much. He knew that the new identity of "Sun Zeyuan" had been completely confirmed, and he had a powerful backer to back him up. This was undoubtedly a good thing for him, and it would be much easier for him to do things in the future.

"Chen Shuai, what did you just say?"

Chu Lan also came to Chen Shuai's office immediately after hearing the news. Although the two of them had some conflicts, at this critical moment, it would not affect the overall situation.

However, Chu Lan still has a grudge against Yuan Ze and thinks that he should not have access to this confidential information.

Chen Shuai saw through Chu Lan's thoughts and shook his head gently: "Chu Lan, now is not the time to waste time. Yuan Ze's contribution to this matter is not as good as yours and mine. Don't underestimate him." Chu Lan was a little discouraged and looked at Yuan Ze helplessly: "Okay, since Commander Chen said so, do you have any good ideas?"

"There is an immature plan."

"Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me!" Chu Lan seemed a little impatient. After all, this involved the safety of hundreds of millions of people, so he didn't have the energy to play tricks.

"According to Lin Mohai's confession, this source beast has a high level of intelligence and can transform into a human form. This must be an advanced mimicry ability, or an ability similar to gene editing."

"But he said that this source beast has very weak attack power, which is more than enough to deal with ordinary people. But it takes a certain amount of time to transform into a human form, so after his wife committed suicide for their two sons, one of them took more than two hours to transform. Not only can he not be distinguished from others in terms of living habits and physical appearance, but the worst thing is that he has tested it and it cannot be identified by any existing technology."

"Then there is one thing that Commander Chen Shuai has already checked, that is, the people who have been missing and have returned. In addition, in places where the virus has concentrated, it is very likely that some of the permanent residents there have already met with accidents. There are also patients who have already fallen ill, and we also need to do a thorough investigation again; and..."

Yuan Ze finally added: "The analysis of the virus depends entirely on the medical team sent by Li Haisheng, but they are helpless unless we can catch a humanoid monster in the next two days."

"The plan is indeed rather rough." Chu Lan was not targeting him, but it was indeed so. However, it was enough to make him look at it differently. "Some of the ideas provided are good. I will send my men to investigate these."

"Yes, although this plan is rough, it is the best solution we can think of at the moment. However, the most important thing is that we must first examine our own people and ensure the innocence of those involved in the action. Lin Mohai will be dealt with by military law tomorrow. This is a painful lesson. We must never let the source beast sneak into our search team again."

Chen Shuai’s summary hit the nail on the head and pointed out the most fatal part of the problem.

In fact, in Yuanze's heart, Lin Mohai's betrayal of all mankind has already annoyed Yuanze, and he has buried him countless times in his heart, which shows that his future fate is certain after this matter is over. But which father can be so calm when facing the threat of his own son?
What if it was your own father?

Yuan Ze didn't dare to think any further. He only knew one thing, that if Lin Mohai had even a little bit of resistance, even if he was just an apprentice level Yuanwu warrior, he would definitely take his child back from those humanoid monsters who were not very strong.

What if their children are also Source Warriors?

Lin Mohai is a sinner of mankind, but a hero of children.

Paul is a hero to humanity and to his children.

Yuanze couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions. This world is full of contradictions and helplessness. Lin Mohai's mistakes are unforgivable, but the deeper mistakes lie in this absurd and distorted world.

In this world, people struggle for survival, betray for profit, but compromise for their children.
