Chapter 66: Soft and tender, the insect grows into a big and eighteen-fold
After hearing Feng Yongqing's words, Zhou Yan and others bowed respectfully in the direction of the imperial capital.
The three doses of elixir of immortality sent from the imperial capital this time not only saved them, but also saved him. Otherwise, he might have to live with guilt for the rest of his life.
Seeing this, Feng Yongqing couldn't help but smile. Those words just now were certainly not said by the Emperor. Maybe the Emperor didn't care about these, but he couldn't help but speak well of the Emperor.
Time passed, and an hour later, everyone stood outside the base, watching the spaceship flying quickly in the sky, waiting quietly.
The wind and snow brought by the spacecraft swept in, and after the spacecraft landed, everyone walked over.
"laugh!"
After the door of the spaceship opened, a team of people wearing ink-colored uniforms with star patterns came down. Seeing this, Feng Yongqing hurriedly walked over with a smile.
"Greetings, Master Xin!!"
"Greetings, Master Xin!!"
Seeing this, Xin Wushuang nodded and said calmly: "This time we are mainly escorting the elixir of immortality, take us to see the injured."
Seeing Xin Wushuang's cold look, everyone had already gotten used to it, because all the people in the Empire's Jinyiwei were like this, with expressionless faces and voices so cold that they could freeze a person to death.
Next, Feng Yongqing brought Xin Wushuang to the three injured people. At this moment, Xiaofeng and the other two were lying on the bed, unable to move.
Xin Wushuang looked at the terrible wounds on the backs of the three men without a trace of emotion in his eyes. He waved his hand and asked his men to inject the elixir of immortality into the three men.
As the elixir of immortality was injected into the bodies of the three people, along with the effect of the medicine, the hideous wounds on their backs were recovering rapidly.
The itching caused by the recovery of their injuries made the three people feel uncomfortable, but at the same time, they felt warm all over, and their originally weak bodies were quickly recovering vitality.
Seeing this, Xin Wushuang looked at Feng Yongqing and said, "In addition to this matter, we have another mission this time, which is to bring back a parasitic fungus worm..."
Hearing this, Feng Yongqing's face changed and he refused without thinking. He knew how terrible parasitic fungi and insects were. If they were brought to the imperial capital and hurt His Majesty, he would really be willing to die.
Seeing Feng Yongqing's refusal, Xin Wushuang was not surprised. He had obviously expected this. He then took out a handwritten note from Ye Chen and handed it to him, saying, "Your Majesty knew that Lord Feng would refuse, so he specially wrote a handwritten note for you."
Hearing this, Feng Yongqing took it with some doubts. After opening it, he quickly finished reading the contents. This made him speechless. He did not expect that His Majesty would want to develop a biological weapon based on the characteristics of this parasitic fungus.
Moreover, the handwritten note also contained some conjectures about the form of that biological weapon, and from those rough conjectures, he could see how terrifying this biological weapon was.
In particular, if the parasitic fungi's intolerance to low temperatures can be enhanced while retaining the ability of this organism to absorb heat energy and evolve rapidly, it is very likely that a corps of insects capable of space combat can be formed.
Thinking of the future potential of this biological weapon, Feng Yongqing looked at Xin Wushuang and said, "Come with me."
Having said that, he took Xin Wushuang and the others to the place where the parasitic fungi and insects were sealed off.
Seeing this, Xin Wushuang and his men followed.
After passing through layers of access control, the few people finally entered. This was a place similar to a freezer with a very low temperature. After unlocking their pupils, Feng Yongqing opened a freezer compartment.
Through the transparent glass outside, you can see the parasitic bacteria and insects sleeping inside.
Looking at this huge spine, Xin Wushuang couldn't see what was so scary about it, but he was too lazy to think about it, so he asked someone to take it away.
"Master Xin, this thing is very dangerous. I will go back with you this time. I am very familiar with the characteristics of this thing."
Hearing this, Xin Wushuang was silent for a moment and then nodded and said, "Okay!!"
After arranging things at the base, Feng Yongqing left with Xin Wushuang and others.
After returning to the imperial capital, Ye Chen finally saw what the parasitic fungus looked like. It looked like a large spine with dense tentacles growing outside.
At first glance, this thing does look a little ugly.
“Your Majesty, this thing is very dangerous. Once it is parasitic, it will devour the energy of the human body at a very fast speed, and in the process it will be closely connected to the human flesh and blood, making it difficult to separate.
And there is no way to confirm the transmission route of this thing now. Although I have not discovered that this thing has airborne characteristics, the evolution speed of this thing is too fast.
It also has a strong variability, so for the safety of Your Majesty, it is best not to open the cryochamber..."
Seeing that Ye Chen was somewhat curious about this thing, Feng Yongqing, who was not far away, spoke quickly.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "It's okay."
Then he gently waved his sleeves, opened the freezer, and controlled the parasitic bacteria and insects inside to float in front of him.
Grabbing this thing, Ye Chen pinched the tentacles on the outside. When he pulled it, it stretched out immediately. When he let go, it shrank back immediately. The toughness of this thing is quite good.
Feng Yongqing, who was not far away, saw Ye Chen's actions and couldn't help but widen his eyes. Then he saw a scene that made him want to faint.
Ye Chen was seen crushing the bone skin outside the parasitic fungus and insect, revealing the main body of the parasitic fungus and insect inside.
Being treated so roughly by Ye Chen, coupled with the rising temperature, the parasitic insects suddenly woke up from their slumber.
After waking up, it instinctively wrapped around Ye Chen's palm, and the countless rodents that evolved in its body tried to break through Ye Chen's skin and drill into his body.
However, no matter how hard it tried, it was useless and it couldn't break Ye Chen's skin at all.
Looking at the sticky stuff in his hand, Ye Chen discovered that this little thing could indeed absorb the heat of living things to grow.
"His Majesty!!"
Inside the hall, Yuan Lan, Xin Wushuang, Feng Yongqing and the others' faces changed when they saw this scene, and they immediately prepared to step forward to protect the emperor.
Seeing this, Ye Chen smiled and said, "It's okay, this little thing can't hurt me."
Hearing this, several people stopped immediately, but there was still some worry on their faces.
"Haha, this little thing probably has never been full. It's just right. I want to see how far this little thing can evolve."
As he spoke, Ye Chen mobilized the energy in his body to feed the little guy, letting it devour.
With Ye Chen's active feeding, the parasitic bacteria and insects did not hesitate to devour the food madly. After having enough energy, the cells in the body evolved madly.
The parasitic insect's body grew rapidly and became larger. As its body changed, its originally soft pink body gradually turned grayish white, and a layer of grayish white shell formed on the outside to protect its body.
The tentacles on its outer surface devoured each other and merged into long and thin claws, and a scorpion-like bony tail formed behind it.
Looking at the evolved form of this thing, Ye Chen couldn't help but flash a trace of disgust in his eyes. This thing is so ugly, not even as good as the limp pink form just now.
"cracking!!"
As this thing evolved completely, it became even more ferocious. It used its slender but powerful claws to pounce towards Ye Chen.
Seeing this, Ye Chen waved his hand to imprison it and suspended it in the air. Ye Chen moved his body to reveal the parasitic fungus's body.
It was seen that most of the lower part of the body was covered with a grayish-white shell, with a small part being the creature's face and mouth.
