The evil female is delicate and weak, and the four beastly husbands take turns feeding her.

Chapter 216 Zerg Invasion
The Imperial Research Center was brightly lit all night long.

The air was filled with the mixed smells of various reagents and metal instruments, and the blinding white lights contrasted sharply with the darkness outside the window.

Lin Zhijing leaned against the edge of the cold lab bench, his phoenix eyes behind his silver-rimmed glasses were bloodshot, and the dark circles under his eyes showed how long he had been working continuously.

His short, gray hair was somewhat messy, with a few unruly strands hanging over his forehead, a stark contrast to his usual meticulous appearance.

Since Ye Xi'an left, he has come here to participate in the research and development of antibodies against the Extreme Cold Realm virus.

Almost all of the top researchers on the planet Zhushen gathered here, working day and night.

On the screen in front of me, the basic structures of various viruses and their genetic diagrams kept changing.

These are all deadly viruses from extremely cold regions.

In addition to the known virus that infected Yiyang earlier, 17 more deadly viruses have been discovered in the extremely cold region and named in the order of their discovery.

The virus that Yiyang was previously infected with was virus number 1.

Lin Zhijing's fingertips slid rapidly across the screen, retrieving a set of the latest gene sequence comparison data.

His brows were furrowed, and his thin lips were pressed into a cold, hard line.

The intense research work added an extra layer of coldness to his already aloof demeanor, making him seem even more unapproachable.

Occasionally, when researchers came to give reports, their voices would tremble from the chilling aura emanating from him.

"Dr. Lin, the gene analysis of virus No. 17 has failed again. I don't know why the restriction enzyme can't find the cleavage site."

A young researcher spoke cautiously, his voice tinged with obvious fatigue and frustration.

Lin Zhijing didn't even raise his head; his voice was hoarse but carried an undeniable authority.

"Change the restriction enzyme and re-sequencing."

"The previous plan..."

“Abandoned”.

He uttered two words without any further explanation.

The young researcher dared not say another word and quickly left, making the atmosphere in the laboratory even more tense.

The environment on the planet Astora is deteriorating, and the Zerg are eyeing it covetously. The extreme cold is humanity's only hope for survival.

And this hope now hangs on these tiny, invisible viral antibodies.

He raised his hand, instinctively reaching to adjust his glasses, but his fingertips touched his brow instead.

There, due to prolonged focused thinking, the area had twisted into a deep "川" (river) shape.

Ye Xi'an's smiling face flashed in her mind at an inopportune moment, bright and warm, completely out of place in this cold laboratory.

Is she alright now?

The thought flashed through his mind for a moment before he forcibly suppressed it.

Now is not the time for distractions.

He must succeed.

For the sake of the main god star, for the sake of the family, and even more so for my own future sexual happiness!

When it comes to sexual happiness, he finally regained his enthusiasm.

After countless failures and restarts, a glimmer of hope finally appeared during an experiment late at night.

When the latest antibodies were injected into the experimental subjects infected with the mixed virus, their vital signs miraculously began to recover.

The entire monitoring room erupted in cheers that had been suppressed for a long time.

As Lin Zhijing watched the curve on the screen gradually stabilize, his nerves, which had been tense for months, finally showed signs of relaxing.

He slowly took off his glasses and rubbed his sore eyes.

Behind the glasses, the phoenix eyes no longer held only cold data, but instead shone with a barely perceptible sense of relief. "It's done."

An aged voice sounded beside him. It belonged to the oldest researcher in the research center, who had been there since the center was established. His face also showed both fatigue and joy.

Lin Zhijing nodded slightly, his voice still low.

"It's only a preliminary success; large-scale clinical trials are still needed to ensure everything goes smoothly."

He was calmer than anyone else.

Successful antibody development is only the first step; its safety and efficacy must be ensured before it can be administered to all residents.

Only in this way can the inhabitants of the main planet be qualified to set foot on that land after the ice has thawed and begin a new life.

"There's no time to lose. Let's inject a batch and send it to the extreme cold region to see how it goes."

If you want a future, you always have to make sacrifices.

Lin Zhijing frowned: "This is not some other reagent; there is a high possibility that it will cause mass deaths."

"So what? Science is always accompanied by sacrifice."

Before the two groups could finish arguing, the highest level alarm at the research center was suddenly sounded.

The piercing sound of flashing red alarm lights filled the entire laboratory.

"Oh no, the Zerg are here! Quickly protect the antibodies and experimental materials and get out of here."

Someone shouted something, and the researchers who had been arguing quickly scattered, nimbly gathering their research results and running out.

Lin Zhijing frowned and looked worriedly in the direction of the mission hall. Xi'an, please don't come back now.

When Lin Zhijing followed the crowd outside, he found that the weather had changed, and the insectoids had come out in full force this time.

Outside the research institute's window, the sky had turned a terrifying dark red, as if it had been splashed with congealed blood. Dark gray clouds drifted slowly across the sky, revealing terrifying figures that were faintly visible among the clouds.

The researchers in white coats stared in shock at the scene. This insect attack was more terrifying than any before, clearly indicating that they had made thorough preparations.

"Dr. Lin, Dr. Zhang, you go with the army to the Marshal's Mansion. We'll hold them off here."

They were surrounded by the army at some point, and the army protected them from harm.

It is important to understand that researchers and females are the most important groups on Asclepius; they are related to the future of Asclepius, and there can be no mistakes.

"Boom——!"

A deafening roar followed, accompanied by earth-shaking tremors.

Not far away, a hundred-story building collapsed with a crash, like a block being crushed by an invisible giant hand, stirring up clouds of dust.

Amidst the smoke and dust, a ferocious silhouette slowly emerged.

The elderly researcher trembled as he raised his wrinkled hand and pointed to the sky: "What is that?"

Everyone was drawn to the direction the old man was pointing, and their pupils constricted.

It was an unimaginably giant arthropod insectoid, its entire body covered in a dark brown carapace that gleamed with a metallic sheen.

It is a hundred meters tall, with legs like stone pillars reaching to the sky. Every time it falls, the earth groans as if it cannot bear the weight.

Its limbs flank as it collides with the steel buildings in its path.

The seemingly indestructible building collapsed like paper, sending debris flying and creating deep craters on the ground.

"Have the Zerg grown to this size now?"

Lin Zhijing frowned: "The Zerg must have undergone a second evolution."

[Warning! Warning! The Third Ring Road defense line has been breached!]

Shortly after news of the Third Ring Road's collapse spread, alarms followed that the Second Ring Road was also under attack.

[All residents must immediately evacuate to the first ring road area! Repeat! All residents must immediately evacuate to the first ring road area!]
