on the battlefield. If all the troopers were to be wiped out, humanity would have suffered an indescribable loss.
"I’m not sure whether this will be our last confrontation with this alien, and there are definitely many things humanity still needs to worry about, like the safety of the planet and the well-being of our future generation, but all those things will come after we win this war!
"Let us fight for the sake of humanity, for the sake of future, for the sake of our children, and for a new home planet!"
Then all the h.o.m.o Evolutis got on their a.s.signed combat jets. With Yao Yuan leading, they soared through the sky as their ECS systems were activated. Within a blink of an eye, they were already in s.p.a.ce.
In front of them was the mother nest that was previously on Moon 2. One had to wonder how such a giant thing had extricated itself from the moon's surface. Currently, it was still in Moon 2’s...o...b..tal range. Due to its size, it had to contend with Moon 2’s gravitational force, so it was travelling extremely slow.
"The first step of Operation Celestial Wolf is to clear out as many monsters as we possibly can. The mother nest requires some time before it can birth new monsters. Therefore, the more monsters we take down now, the easier it’ll be for us later. Similarly, we’ll be using guerilla tactics. This first step will last for an hour. An hour later, we’ll gather at coordinates 3612, 7161, 2351."
Yao Yuan took in a deep breath and led the troopers into the cloud of monsters. The second s.p.a.ce war was going to start…
Back at the Hope, Ivan and Saburo were slaving in the biology lab. Their eyes were ringed with black eye from G.o.d knows how many sleepless nights. They weren’t even given rest when the soldiers came back and went for their forty winks. The 2 of them only managed short naps in between quick meals.
The pressure on them only increased after 20 more infected were sent into quarantine. Among the 20 were Ren Tao and Zhang Heng. One of them was a rare Thinker and the other was the best Diviner. Yao Yuan gave specific orders that they must be saved no matter what.
But it was easier said than done.
It was already a miracle for a planet to be able to support life. However, the evolution of the creatures on it would definitely be different from that of Earth’s. The same could be said of its microorganisms. A common virus on this planet might be fatal to humanity because mankind didn’t develop immunity against it.
"There’s just no way. We’ve tried all the antibiotics we have. Even the lab rats have entered metabolic shock from ingestion of so many medicines. Obviously, one or more of the virus strands are activated by our antibiotics. Instead of suppressing it, the medicines are activating it." Ivan sighed in defeat.
Saburo glared at the test tubes of samples with bloodshot eyes. The whole situation reminded him of the tragedy that he had once experienced, but as frustrated as he was, he had to concede. "You’re right. It would be much easier if there was only 1 virus or bacteria. In that case, we could use the electromagnetic cellular separator, but… these people took in the air of the planet. They were contaminated by a whole bouquet of bacteria and viruses that live in the air. Of the earlier patients, a few of them died from internal bleeding. If the symptoms are the same, this new batch of patients will die in the next 30 minutes."
"Things definitely would be a lot easier if they had been contaminated by one or two viruses or bacteria, but now… I don’t think even medical technology from the 5th revolution could save them in such a short period of time…" Ivan concurred.
Saburo balled his fists and growled, "If only there was an immune system that could counter any and all viruses and bacteria… Wait a minute, Professor Ivan! We do have something like that, an organism that has perfect immunity! Yes…
"We’ll use the alien cells to create the vaccine!"
