Shen Bai hugged Sister Mao'er and sat on the soft leather sofa, watching TV seriously.

He heard his name from the mouth of the federal congressman with deep legal tattoos.

"Dear, your Golden Knight Medal can be exchanged for the [Heart of the Torch], and you can enjoy more privileges. From now on, you will be tax-free for life. Many people choose to start companies after getting this convenience, and they can easily make a lot of money.

…”

"I don't care about money, as long as that kind of thing is enough." Shen Bai pinched Sister Mao'er's cheek and didn't pay much attention to the "Torch Heart Medal" given to him by the federation.

Now he just wants the crazy October to end soon, and then he and Sister Mao'er can go to various parts of the world to see. Even the old lands that are extremely dangerous for ordinary people, with Sister Mao'er in Shenbai, he won't be afraid of anything.

Towards the end of his speech, the MP announced the postponed start date for October Madness.

"Utopia has suffered severe challenges. In the next month, the federal military will implement a series of revenge actions, but the suffering cannot hinder our progress towards a better future. The 1003th federal outstanding high school student selection competition will be held on December 12.

It will be restarted on September 20th, at which time young heroes from all over the Federation will gather in the Divine Capital to decide the final winner."

The speech came to an end with grand music, and the steps of the participants were just right on the beat. It was obvious that the summary meeting of the October incident had been rehearsed many times in advance.

The federation used this leisurely "show" to tell the people: Don't be afraid, the world is far from the worst, and we can still handle it!

"Dear." Sister Mao'er kissed Shen Bai and said with a smile:

"Let's get dressed and go out. I will formally apply to Utopia and the Academy of Sciences through the military department to call you. Tomorrow we will take the [Indistance Corridor] to the old land."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Shen Bai picked up the Shenwu military robe and put it on Sister Mao'er. The two arranged each other's clothes and then went out together.

The office of the Academy of Sciences is not far from here. Different from the cautious and rational style of researchers, the building of the Guangming Academy of Sciences branch is a pyramid with simple decoration, which has a sense of mysticism.

As the research director of Utopia, Ye Wen stays here all year round. She is not shy about doing bloody research. The residents of Guangming City occasionally see truck after truck of living test subjects being sent into this pyramid. Over time, this place has become a bright place.

The urban legend of the city has a certain horror connotation.

Sister Mao'er and Shen Bai arrived at Ye Wen's office smoothly. This place was more like Frankenstein's lair than an office, with weird utensils, corpses soaked in embalming fluid, catalysts of various colors...

Ye Wen, who was wearing a white coat, was feeding some small gray hamsters. When she saw the two people coming in, she didn't show much surprise:

"General Yun, Xi Ke, if you need anything, please tell me as soon as possible. I still have work to do."

Sister Maoer is more direct:

"Shen Bai will temporarily leave the Night Watch and rejoin the Shenwu Army."

"good."

Shen Bai stared at the two of them dumbfounded, wondering why the handover went so smoothly.

——Am I so unimportant to the Academy of Sciences? It shouldn’t be!

"However, General Yun, please leave for a while. I have something to explain to Shen Bai."

When Sister Mao'er heard this, she turned her head slightly and smiled at Shen Bai. She made a mouth gesture and signaled that she should go to the military headquarters to formally submit the application, and then really left.

In the office full of strange potion smell, only Shen Bai and Ye Wen were left.

"Shen Bai, Xiao Bai, I didn't expect you to be so popular...Have you known Yun Wei before?" Ye Wen frowned and asked, but she didn't think too much about this, she just picked up the little gray hamster and said:

"Forget it, this is your private matter, I'm not interested, Xiaobai, do you know what I'm holding in my hand?"

"It's just a laboratory mouse, but gray-haired ones are very rare. I thought they were all white."

"What do you think of this in vivo experimental material?"

"Well……"

"Tell the truth."

"How should I put it? Although it is cruel and inhumane, if biology and medicine want to progress, this kind of experimental mice is indispensable. You can't directly dissect volunteers, right?"

"Being able to say this shows that you have a conscience and are not a hypocrite. Xiaobai, do you know how the investigation team wrote the summary report on you?" Ye Wen smiled and said softly:

"Sharp, courageous, and flexible. He is a model of outstanding young people in the Federation and can be entrusted with important responsibilities."

"Is my image in the eyes of big shots so radiant..."

"You are already an outstanding leader. Of course, you can't compare to A-level Apocalypse like Hefeng Hua Lian and Xiao Linhai, let alone a being born with destiny like Di Tian." Ye Wen praised Shen Bai,

Then he said:

"Xiaobai, I want you to do something for me."

"Is it related to this trip to the old land?"

"Yes, the experimental mouse in my hand was transported from the old soil. Mammals with strong breeding ability will be genetically selected due to different living environments, so I will compare the mice from the old soil and the federation.

The experiment has extremely high research value, which allows the Academy of Sciences to discover the weaknesses of ancient creatures, but... mice are just mice after all, not intelligent life."

"You want me to kidnap the mutant?"

"right."

"I'm young and speak a bit bluntly. Don't mind." Shen Bai said seriously to his nominal boss:

"The Academy of Sciences is a behemoth. It has great influence on the Holy City. It controls the most advanced technology in the Federation and the largest number of First Stone fragments. Although the media has not disclosed it, anyone with the ability to think can imagine that the Academy of Sciences must have captives.

A large number of aberrations are used as research materials. Of course, humans must be kept in captivity in the old land. Let’s not discuss whether there is any moral wrong with this matter... You are the director of research in a large administrative region, so you will not be able to apply for a license to use living aberrations.

?Uh, let me put it another way, Chief Ye Wen, is your purpose of using the aberration really for experimentation?"

Ye Wen looked at Shen Bai seriously. After a while, she smiled and said with some relief:

"You are indeed perceptive."

"You lift me up, everyone would think of this little thing."

"No, most people in this world are mediocre, and they can already be far ahead of their peers by thinking independently." Ye Wen sighed:

"The purpose of using the aberrations is of course for experiments, but this experiment cannot be known by the Academy of Sciences. Every aberration we have is marked and will be collected after use. The headquarters' inspection methods are too powerful, I can't risk it.

This risk."

Shen Bai was thoughtful:

"But you always have special channels."

"There has been so much noise recently that it is difficult to obtain the aberrations through special channels."

"Let me think for a while..."

"Xiaotu Sancao, Xiaobai, I don't just entrust you alone, I entrust this matter to ten people at the same time. I always get what I want, but I am most optimistic about you..."

"Forget it, Chief Ye Wen, I feel like I'm not suitable for doing this kind of thing."

"Don't you listen to my conditions?"

"No need." Shen Bai tilted his head:

"It doesn't matter if you kill mutants, but they are also intelligent creatures with personalities and emotions. They kidnap people to the enemy's nest for experiments... Tsk."

"If this word spreads, you will only get the reputation of [sympathizing with the blood-vengeful clan]."

"Isn't this bad? Only when a person has a bottom line can he be called a human being."

Ye Wen was stunned, and after thinking for a long time, she became speechless:
Chapter completed!
