Chapter 277: Chapter 277: Talent Recruitment_1"You’re saying that the source of the virus is actually that moon?"
This was an answer Doctor Oleg had not anticipated, and it seemed to be related to Spiritual Energy. Had they all spent years chasing a result that was destined to have no remedy?
They could only treat physical illnesses, but dealing with Spiritual Energy and mental contamination touched on their blind spots in knowledge.
The medical team felt the world had become magical overnight, and they also learned that this creature, resembling a Gryphon, possessed a considerable degree of intelligence, and there was even the possibility of coexisting peacefully with humans.
All the clues at hand pointed toward the Lunar Eclipse Sect.
Whether it was the spread of the psychic virus or the development of biological weapons.
To report the message to the dispatched department.
That was Oleg’s first thought, but he quickly realized that the dispatched department would not invest manpower and resources in these matters. Investigating the Lunar Eclipse Sect was tantamount to being enemies with the entire third country, which required explicit instructions from the United Government. Could a few battlefield doctors change the minds of the senior leadership of the United Government?
This was simply a fool’s dream.
In fact, after they lost communication, the dispatched department had already abandoned the rescue operation for them.
The United Government did not lack experienced doctors; their positions could be filled by others at any time.
Doctor Oleg sat in the chair, his expression dejected.
He had found the answer he had been pursuing all along, but he was powerless to do anything about it.
As long as the Lunar Eclipse Sect existed for one more day, the infection in the third country could not be completely eradicated.
"Don’t be pessimistic, there is a remedy for combating hallucinations," said Song Lan. "However, this requires strong willpower and judgment to support it."
The Queen’s Nest greatly amplified the effect of abilities, even to the point of directly inducing hallucinations, but due to the characteristics of the Devourers, a method different from dealing with interference-type Psychic Ability Users emerged: "α inhibitor, this is the remedy we currently know that can counteract the will of the Queen’s Nest."
"α inhibitor?"
Doctor Oleg pondered for a moment; he had never heard of such an inhibitor. "This inhibitor you’re talking about, can it be mass-produced?"
"That’s where the problem lies."
Song Lan said, "We currently lack medical talent and cannot mass-produce this type of inhibitor."
Medea’s abilities were limited; with just her alone, there wasn’t enough energy to devote to the re
"You have three days to find out the whereabouts of that medical team and Xinyue,"
A gloomy voice came through the walkie-talkie.
"Understood."

Meanwhile, in District Seventeen, the arrival of Xinyue brought new vitality to the junkyard.
As a Swallower that had hatched not long ago, she was curious about everything around her. She could chat all day about any trivial matter with others, and even Ge Fu had to start finding ways to avoid Xinyue—since she was brought back to the junkyard to reside, he had gotten nothing done, chatting with a person and a Swallower until four o’clock in the morning, and Xinyue still seemed eager for more.
When Song Lan arrived at the junkyard after work in the afternoon, Xinyue was engaged in a passionate discussion with Ge Fu’s developed intelligent voice system about topics like the origin of life and the end of the universe.
Although their discussion was at cross purposes, it fully showed Xinyue’s spirit of being brave in exploring philosophy.
He could only attribute Xinyue’s chattiness to the racial talent of birds; the residual data they found in the Lunar Eclipse Sect laboratory indicated that the researchers had always intended for her to evolve into her current form.
As a Swallower, Xinyue was highly unusual.
Not just because she could chatter to the extent that even Ge Fu was afraid, but more importantly, she also possessed high mobility that other Swallowers lacked.
Even Medea couldn’t figure out the principle behind this evolution for the time being, but she was sure that after that experiment mishap, someone had continued the research on Swallowers.
She believed that Xinyue, with her high mobility that is not limited to any region, was likely an evolutionary form of the Swallowers. This fundamentally solved the limitations of the Swallowers, allowing them to truly act as biological weapons in warfare.
Don’t be deceived by Xinyue’s incessant talking whenever she meets people now. Based on the sample data they had collected, she could easily annihilate a regular army with her current combat strength.
Moreover, she had just hatched not long ago and did not fully grasp her own powers yet, leaving room for infinite possibilities in the future.
And this afternoon, Song Lan had come for this very reason.
As he passed by, Medea and Doctor Oleg looked on in shock as he stood in front of Xinyue.
"Actually, I’ve been wanting to ask since yesterday; how do you usually lay eggs?"
