In the apocalypse, I hoarded goods and handed over my storage space to the government.

After the meeting ended, the generals left in a hurry.

All instructions were sent to major war zones around the world via quantum-encrypted channels.

The Great Xia war machine has once again been put into its highest gear.

But the process of alienation and apocalypse did not stop because of this two-hour meeting.

The countdown to the Jiangcheng Mother Nest continues to tick.

As the last general departed, the heavy alloy gate slowly closed.

In the huge conference room, only Su Ran and Li Guodong remained.

Li Guodong stayed until the end. He walked up to Su Ran and offered her a cigarette, but Su Ran waved her hand and refused.

"Xiao Su, what you said at the meeting today was indeed a bit risky."

Li Guodong lit it himself and exhaled a puff of pungent smoke.

"The word 'wisdom' is a taboo in the eyes of the military."

The smarter you describe them, the less soundly these old guys sleep.

Su Ran walked to the window and looked at the dense lights of the Kunlun base outside, as well as the construction machinery that could be vaguely seen in the distance.

"It's better to tell the truth than to have them jump out and oppose us at the crucial moment."

Su Ran turned around, her tone indifferent.

"About Jiangcheng Mother Nest"

Li Guodong brought the topic back, his gaze fixed intently on Su Ran.

"Xiao Su, today you have managed to dismantle the concerns of all parties and reach a superficial consensus."

However, the bottom line cannot be crossed.

"The window of opportunity for advancement... what if Bai Lu's mind control ultimately fails..."

Li Guodong paused for a moment, then added the details word by word.

"At that time, your entire Awakened Squad must retreat immediately! Those three thermobaric missiles will be launched on schedule."

"I understand. The safety of Great Xia is paramount." Su Ran nodded solemnly.

Li Guodong remained silent, knowing the immense pressure this young man was under.

"By the way, how confident is Zhang Qian about the brain-computer interface project?"

Li Guodong asked with some concern.

"It is theoretically absolutely feasible, but there have been no clear translational results in actual research."

Su Ran turned around and patiently explained.

"The spiritual power of the white deer is unique, and it will take time to decipher and replicate this uniqueness."

"As long as the Academy of Sciences can perfectly simulate that specific mental fluctuation through brainwaves, and then forcibly implant it into the brainstem of alien beasts using biochips, mass production and control will not be a dream."

"If that day ever comes, I will personally contact the leader and have him throw a celebration banquet for you and for this group of crazy scientists!"

Li Guodong stubbed out his cigarette, his expression grave.

"I know Bai Lu. She's been working like crazy in the lab these past few days, working day and night."

You should try to talk to her.

"That's her path; no one else can help her."

Su Ran sighed, a complex look flashing in her eyes.

"Alright, you've been working non-stop lately, you should take a good rest."

Li Guodong stepped forward and patted Su Ran heavily on the shoulder.

"In a few days, I'll be busy again."

Su Ran didn't speak, she just looked at her hands.

He can't stop.

……

Su Ran strode out of the strategic command building.

The cold wind outside, carrying snowflakes, swept in, and the Kunlun base in November was bitterly cold.

He went straight back to his private lounge.

"Click".

The metal door was locked behind her, and Su Ran walked to the table.

A thought crossed my mind.

Splash!

A dozen or so crystal cores, each emitting a different colored glow, landed on the solid wood table.

These are all third-order crystal cores that he has carefully selected over this period of time, which are suitable for his own attributes.

Su Ran casually picked up a dark blue crystal core.

The icy touch traveled straight from my fingertips to my very bones.

"It's been stuck for so long, it's about time."

He stared at the crystal core, a ruthless glint in his eyes.

During this period, he could clearly feel the bottleneck in his body loosening.

With the mother nest about to advance to the fourth stage, Bai Lu's "spiritual imprint" experiment has made a breakthrough, but there are too many variables.

If things really come to the point where we can't contain them any longer, and three super-high-yield thermobaric bombs are dropped, Jiangcheng and the mother nest itself will be completely annihilated.

The Great Xia Dynasty completely lost its golden opportunity to control the Warcraft Legion.

"I have to be the last line of defense."

Su Ran slowly closed her eyes and clenched the deep blue crystal core.

……

Ten days later! The laboratory on the third basement level!

Behind the thick, explosion-proof glass lies a huge isolation chamber.

A three-meter-long mutated snowy owl was secured to a test bench by high-strength alloy chains.

His eyes shone with a chilling, deep blue light.

The moment the white deer saw it, it realized its extraordinary nature!

In order to solve the fatal flaw of the previous mutated creatures that "their brain hardware is not enough to bear the mental imprint".

Zhang Qian's team directly injected it with the purest crystal core energy liquid without regard to cost, forcibly stimulating its superpower intensity and brain development until it approached its physical limit!

Now, it can be said to be a terrifying "quasi-fourth-order" creature that is only one step away from the fourth order!

This is also the most precious and most dangerous final sample in the entire experimental area.

"Brain activity at 80%... and still rising!"

Zhang Qian stared intently at the data on the screen, his voice brimming with excitement.

"Advisor Su is right. The brain structure of alienated beings in the mental system is far more complex than that in the physical system."

This snowy owl's brain size perfectly meets the standards for carrying a spiritual imprint!

Bai Lu stood outside the glass curtain wall, looking excited.

She unscrewed a bottle of high-concentration crystal nucleus extract and tilted her head back to gulp it down.

"Professor Zhang, let's begin."

She placed her hands on the control panel.

An invisible spiritual wave pierced into the isolation chamber.

The snowy owl let out a sharp cry, its deep blue eyes fixed on the white deer, attempting to retaliate with its spiritual power.

Two spiritual forces collided in the void.

The data on the test bench were fluctuating wildly.

"Suppress it!" Zhang Qian shouted.

Bai Lu clenched his teeth, and fine beads of sweat appeared between his brows.

She channeled all her mental energy into a heavy hammer, smashing the snow owl's mental defenses.

"Boow your head!" Bai Lu shouted fiercely.

The snowy owl's struggling movements came to an abrupt halt.

The rage in those deep blue eyes faded, replaced by a blank stare and submissiveness.

"Connection established successfully!"

Zhang Qian's hands flew across the keyboard, typing, "Miss Bailu, you must hold on!"

Finally, after Bai Lu completed the process of imprinting the idea of ​​"something" into her mind.

She let out a long breath and severed the mental connection.

The most dangerous moment has arrived.

The eight-armed ape that was previously killed had its head explode the moment the mental link was severed because its brain could not handle the information left by the steel imprint.

Everyone held their breath, staring intently at the mutated snow owl that had lost its external mental suppression.

one second.

ten seconds.

One minute.

Five minutes passed.

The snowy owl did not explode and died; it remained quietly lying on the testing platform.

"It...it withstood it! Its brain fully accommodated the amount of information in the stamp!"
