Chapter 180 Late-Night Conversation, New Type of Toxin

Liang He's words made Yin Ling feel quite embarrassed.

"Xiao He, don't be so polite with me, and don't treat me like a guest. Aren't we friends?"

She was perfectly comfortable ordering around Holder and the others around, but when it came to her and Silver Shuttle, she was so polite and distant.

Yinling was unhappy.

"Besides, Yin Qi will arrive in a few days. You're being so polite, how could I possibly trouble you?"

Upon hearing this, Liang He realized that she had indeed been a bit tactless, treating Yin Ling and Yin Shuo as outsiders.

"It was my fault, Ah Ling, don't be angry."

Liang He apologetically served food to Yin Ling. Because of Xuan Jiao's matter, she hadn't prepared the usual fruit wine, so this was the only way to express her apology.

"How could I bear to be angry with you? I just hope you can treat me like family and not be so polite with me."

Yin Ling grew up in the Silverwing Temple. Because of her exceptional intelligence and ability to read people, she couldn't help but see through people's hearts, even though she didn't want to.

Therefore, apart from the people of the Silverwing Temple, she had never had any other true friends, and Liang He was the first person she wanted to befriend sincerely.

"Okay, I understand, thank you, A-Ling."

After dinner, Liang He returned to Xuan Jiao's small private room and stayed by his side, while the furry creatures stayed by Liang He's side.

When it was time for bed, Liang He couldn't bear to see them lying on the ground guarding her, so she simply moved the furry beds from their individual rooms to outside Xuan Jiao's small room.

This way, even when the furry creatures are sleeping, they can see her through the glass door of the small room, making them feel uneasy even when they're not sleeping.

"Huo An, how is Liang He doing?"

Liang He only needed to guard Xuan Jiao, so she was able to rest normally, but Xu Yi and the others were still busy, and even their dinner consisted of nutritional supplements.

It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Having eaten too much of the delicacies of Earth, he suddenly felt his tongue was being severely mistreated when he had to go back to the bizarre nutritional supplements he used to take.

"Liang He asked her friend on Earth for help and is still waiting for news."

Huo An briefly explained the situation, and Lan Zhuo, who was just passing by, stopped in her tracks upon hearing it.

"Is she a friend who, like her, develops pills?"

Liang He previously said that the pill that caused the Silver Moon Wolf to mutate was made by herself, and she was unwilling to make it anymore, so Lan Zhuo could not force her.

If there are other people like Liang He on Earth, is it possible for them to create such pills?
Lan Zhuo was very concerned about this.

"I don't know, it seems to be two people, one analyzing the toxin and the other developing the antidote."

Huo An and Xu Yi both knew about the pills, so there was no need to hide anything from anyone, and they could speak freely without restraint.

"However, judging from Liang He's words, if they can't do it, then no one else can either."

Although this made Xu Yi somewhat unconvinced, it even seemed as if the Federal Animal Research Institute was being belittled.

However, based on my understanding of Liang He, the person who could earn such praise from her must have something extraordinary about them.

"Everyone has their own expertise; they might all be top talents in their respective fields."

Lan Zhuo is a passionate researcher who doesn't care about empty titles; he only cares about the results.

If Liang He's friends can really develop an antidote, it will be a good thing no matter what.

"Haven't you analyzed the poison's components yet?"

Huo An pressed his furrowed brow; he couldn't place all his hopes on Liang He.

Not only Xu Yi and Lan Zhuo, but the Animal Research Institute is also waiting for samples, which are estimated to arrive no earlier than midnight. Experts and professors are all waiting at the institute.

"Based on the current situation, it is very likely a new type of toxin that cannot be matched in the database at the moment."

Generally, the database stores all toxin analysis tables, which are then analyzed and matched by the system to quickly prepare the appropriate antidote. However, no matter how many times they tried or how many samples they used, they couldn't find a match in the existing toxin analysis tables in the database, leading to a stalemate.

"Given that the antidote can trigger the toxin, it's normal that they don't match."

If they actually match, Xu Yi will probably suspect that there might be a trap involved.

"It looks like we'll have to work through the night. You guys should get some sleep if you can. We still have a tough battle to fight."

Huo An couldn't sleep tonight. He didn't know anything about the detoxification, but he still needed to deal with the water source.

At the time, the water flow was cut off immediately to minimize the impact on the downstream areas, but it was impossible to know how long the poison had been ingested; we could only investigate step by step.

"The escort team searched along the upstream branches, and found many unconscious animals near one of the upstream rivers, which should be the source."

The place where Xuan Jiao and his group were found was at the confluence of rivers, where there was surveillance. So, to avoid being discovered, they had to go further upstream and find a blind spot in the surveillance.

"Is there a mole?"

This was the first time Lan Zhuo had encountered such a situation.

"It's unclear at the moment."

Although Huo An sent people to investigate immediately, the other party was cunning and did not find any clues.

"Are there any people this smart among the rebels?"

This wasn't Xu Yi's first time dealing with rebels, but this time it felt different from before.

"Don't underestimate the rebels. If they were truly stupid, they wouldn't have become such a major threat to the Federation."

The fact that they were able to develop the Beast Virus alone is enough to warrant the Federation's attention.

"I've heard that one of the rebels, known as the Black Wizard, is the one who developed the Beast Virus?"

Lan Zhuo had previously been oblivious to what was happening around him and didn't know much about the rebels. He only remembered the black wizard because it was related to medicine.

"Yes, the origin of the Black Wizard is a mystery, but as soon as he appears, an army of ferocious beasts appears in the world."

No one knows which planet the dark wizard comes from; perhaps he is a wanderer, or perhaps a defector.

In short, his appearance greatly increased the strength of the rebels, harmed countless people, and even caused the destruction of a planet, making him a major threat to the Federation.

"That dark wizard deserves to die!"

Growing increasingly angry, Xu Yi slammed his fist on the table.

He just couldn't understand why, if they had the ability, they couldn't walk the right path and instead had to help the rebels do evil!

"Alright, now is not the time to discuss these things."

Hoan still needs to take charge of the overall situation, and the federal government also needs to report further and even hold meetings to discuss it.

The discovery of poisoning in the water source within the protected area does not mean that the poisoning only occurred within the protected area.

Therefore, the Federation must send people to conduct a thorough investigation and do everything possible to prevent other places or planets from being affected.

"It's still uncertain whether this poison will affect the human body, so we really need to investigate carefully."

"Alright, you go ahead and get busy, we'll go wait for the results."

The three of them got busy, and they were busy until dawn.

The animal research institute received the samples in the middle of the night and immediately began studying them in groups, but unfortunately, they found nothing.

The only certainty is that this is a new type of toxin, but its specific toxicity is still unknown.

"If the poison was used and successfully administered, why did it only cause the animal to fall into a coma? That's very strange."
