Walking into the manor, Paten seemed to have entered another world.

Hermann and Holz still came out first. Although the two insects were a little tired, their spirits were visibly excited.

It would be better to say that all the insects in the manor are very excited.

Bai Meng introduced Paten: "Paten, this is Hermann Sis, the chairman of the Lorraine Group, and his last name outside is Bisis."

"This is Hermann's second brother, Holtz Siss. He is in charge of the finances of the Lorraine Group and the Medical Research Institute."

"Hermann, Holz, this is Patern Arthur, my queen."

The three bugs nodded to each other in a friendly manner, and after adding each other's light brains, Hermann and Holtz began to explain Scott's current condition to them.

Since the young master has brought Lieutenant General Paten here, it has sent a signal that can be trusted, so the two bugs did not avoid Paten.

They excitedly announced the news that would go down in history: "Your Excellency! Scott! Scott has spoken!"

No insect had ever thought that a completely transformed insect could actually maintain its sanity, which meant that the transformed female insect could be saved! They no longer had to worry about turning into a monster.

Bai Meng's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down. He let out a long breath and said, "That's good. What about the other three?"

Holtz replied: "Abel has woken up. Although 70% of his body has been transformed into an insect, he has managed to stop the transformation in time. Sulin said that it might be the revival of his spirit that suppressed his physical transformation."

"But the situation with Jinda and Jinqi is a little strange."

"Su Lin tested them. Their mental seas and mental powers are stable, and 45% of their insect transformation has been suppressed, but they haven't regained consciousness yet."

"Su Lin suspects it's a psychological trauma issue and is arranging for Chong to do a deeper psychological test on them."

"……I see."

Bai Meng turned to Paten, who had been silent the whole time: "Paten, do you want to go with me to take a look?"

"Of course, my Lord."

Paten crossed his arms across his chest. He was always good at managing his facial expressions, and he could appear calm even when there were storms of turmoil in his heart.

"I am responsible for your safety and health."

To be honest, when he first came in, Paten didn't recognize that this was the top research institute from fifty years ago.

He actually saw so many female insects with gray hair or disabilities but healthy and happy here. At this moment, Paten unconsciously felt a bit of respect for Bai Meng.

But he still couldn't praise Bai Meng's lifestyle.

Bai Meng nodded: "Let's go then."

Because it was Paten's first time to visit the manor, Hermann and Holz took the responsibility of tour guides consciously. The two insects who trusted Bai Meng extremely did not treat Paten as an outsider at all. They would add a word praising Bai Meng at the end of every sentence, trying to praise Bai Meng as the most perfect male insect in the entire insect race.

Paten listened and agreed, and even took the time to give Bai Meng a teasing look.

Bai Meng felt a little numb all over and could only speed up to escape from this scene that made him dig his toes into the ground.

Several bugs took off their coats at the entrance and hung them on the wall, then entered the laboratory wearing white coats.

The laboratory was much quieter than yesterday. Only a few insects could be seen recording key information at hand. Their movements were quick and agile, and it was obvious that they were in a hurry to do something.

When they saw Bai Meng, their eyes lit up: "Young Master!"

Bai Meng nodded in greeting and asked, "Where are the other bugs?"

One of the bugs smiled and replied, "They are in the basement. They all ran over when they heard Scott speak. We can't do without the bugs for the time being. We just hope they haven't left work by the time we finish the research lab."

Bai Meng is a generous boss. Not only is he generous, but he is also not short of money.

Since such a big happy event has happened, it is only right to reward them.

"Thank you for your hard work. This month, the bonuses and salaries of all insects in the laboratory will be doubled. I know you are happy. If you want to eat something, go to the cafeteria to find Fanlin. If you want to have a party, remember not to hold it too late. The insects in the manor need enough time to rest."

Several research bugs looked at each other and cheered at the same time: "Thank you, young sir! Long live the young sir!"

"Don't worry, young sir! We know what we are doing!"

Bai Meng nodded, reminded them to be careful in the experiment, and took Paten and the others down to the basement.

"Sir, you are such a good boss," Paten commented.

Bai Meng said calmly and matter-of-factly: "They work for me, so I am naturally responsible for their physical and mental health and happiness."

This is called sustainable development. Only stupid insects would drain the pond to catch all the fish.

Paten's eyes swept across the priceless spiral moonstone on the wall of the basement, and he had a deeper understanding of Bai Meng's words.

No wonder so many female insects follow him, Bai Meng deserves it.

Scott was still in the big glass cover. After genetic testing, he was found to be a member of the ancient black sickle mantis clan. It was rumored that this insect race had a very wide hunting range, even including its own kind.

A group of bugs in white coats and more than twenty slightly transformed bugs huddled together quietly, listening nervously to Su Lin and Jonathan communicating with Scott inside the glass cover.

"Dr. Jonathan is here too?"

Bai Meng stopped at a distance, a little surprised that the green-haired female insect appeared here.

Herman smiled and said, "The doctor was the first one to rush to the basement after the news came out. You didn't see how he looked at that time. He was afraid that he was dreaming and afraid of the pain, so he slapped Su Lin all over. Su Lin was so angry that he almost fought with him."

Bai Meng shrugged, not surprised by this situation: "They can be considered as close friends regardless of age."

At this time, Paten also saw the completely transformed insect, as well as more than twenty female insects crowded together with a group of research insects.

Should we say that the insects here are very careless? If it were in the military, if there were any signs of insect transformation, they would be quarantined.

Hmm? Paten narrowed his eyes. Why did he feel that the blue-haired female insect looked familiar?

At this moment, Seville turned around and met Patern's gaze.

"Patern?"

"Sevier?"

The other insects also looked back, and when they saw Bai Meng coming, they hurriedly made way for him. They were even more surprised when they recognized Paten.

"It's Lieutenant General Patern. Your Excellency has brought Lieutenant General Patern here."

"Your Excellency is getting married now. Should we prepare wedding gifts for you and the lieutenant general?"

"Of course I have to prepare. I'll sell myself to you two to help you have fun."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Did you forget to take your medicine again today?"

"I was wondering what kind of female insect you would marry in the future, but I didn't expect it would be Lieutenant General Paten."

"Shh! Shhh! Stop chatting, Su Lin and Dr. Jonathan are coming out."

Bai Meng walked to the data table, looked at Patern, then looked at Sewell, and was a little surprised: "Patern, do you two know each other?"

Paten nodded and said, "Sir, Sewell and I entered the Third Legion in the same year. We are alumni."

"He and I were both major generals at the time. Sewell's military talent was no less than any female insect I had ever seen."

"Ahem, please stop praising me," Sewell said with a wry smile, and raised his left hand with a heavy iron glove to show him, "I am just a sickly insect with nowhere to go now. Thanks to you, young lord, I didn't have to chop off my left arm."

Paten had a complicated expression as his eyes swept over the female insects behind Sewell who, like him, had special devices on some parts of their bodies. Some of them had black cloth covering their eyes, some wore special gloves on their hands, some had extremely hard mouthparts on their mouths, and some sat in wheelchairs with their lower bodies wriggling strangely. He even saw the talented painter Anko Mickey who had been active in the past few years, his palms had become webbed.

But Paten knew that their freedom was not bound, their souls were still under the sky, and their companions sang with them about the uncorrupted tenacity of life.

Paten put away his usual indifferent attitude and saluted Bai Meng solemnly: "Thank you, sir. No matter what the reason, your nobility and kindness should be praised."

Bai Meng did not accept his praise: "Patern, I also have my own obsessions and selfishness. The success of this experiment should be praised not by me but by them."

Bai Meng's eyes really look like the moon and will not hurt the skin or self-esteem of any female insect, because there is nothing alien in those eyes.

"On my own, the experiment cannot continue. I am just doing what I should do as a researcher, just like you."

"So far, this is only the first successful step of the experiment. We still have a lot to do in the future. It will be more difficult than the past six months. It may take a year or even several years to successfully take the second step."

Bai Meng laughed: "There is still a long way to go. Now is not the time to reward people based on their achievements."

"Young Master is right." Su Lin and Jonathan heard these words when they came out, and at this moment they had already regained the calmness that belonged to researchers.

Jonathan adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and was very satisfied with Bai Meng's calm and modest personality. He was indeed the genius he had discovered at first sight.

He gave an update on Scott's condition.

"Scott was very calm after he woke up. He did not show any signs of self-harm or madness. The first word he uttered from his mouth was "hungry."

"After that, we gave him some raw food as usual. Although he ate it, the amount was much less than before. He now prefers cooked meat."

"And just now," Su Lin added, "we found that he said the second word, brother."

"Scott has a brother, my Lord. Perhaps finding him will speed up Scott's recovery."
