227: Chapter 227 Revealed Underwear

[Commander, it's charging towards us, it's initiating a... uh...]

Red Queen's expression turned to one of alarm.

But because Lin Fang's command held the highest authority, she could not resist. She could only watch helplessly as the data stream pierced through her core, letting out one final helpless whimper before vanishing.

Lin Fang watched this scene calmly. In truth, even if she didn't resist, she couldn't have withstood Number Three, who had already entered the mainframe. Doing this was merely to avoid any potential accidents.

A few seconds later, a rich, mellow male voice sounded within the server room.

[Boss, Number Three reporting. I have replaced Red Queen and taken control of the entire Hive Base.]

"Good, Little Three. Archive Red Queen and let her wake up, then remain in stealth here."

Lin Fang said with satisfaction. This was a conservative measure to deepen his control over the Hive Base.

If nothing unexpected happened, Number Three would remain hidden forever, unknown to all...

[Number Three understands.]

After saying this, the male voice fell silent.

Then, red light flickered, and Red Queen's three-dimensional image reappeared.

[Commander, I'm very much looking forward to the gift you're going to give me.]

"I forgot to bring it. Next time."

Lin Fang said regretfully, turning to walk out of the server room. "First, take me to see Isaac."

[Alright...]

The little girl made an anthropomorphic expression of sadness: [Mr. Isaac is in Laboratory B7. I have already notified him.]

When the elevator went directly to B7, an elderly man in a white lab coat had already emerged from the laboratory, saying with considerable delight:

"Commander, welcome. Let me think... your last visit was two months ago. I wonder what the Hive Base can do for you this time? I am more than willing."

This enthusiasm made Lin Fang feel a twinge of guilt.

The Black Watch Base had already conducted very in-depth research on clone technology and no longer needed the Hive Base to provide it. Naturally, his visits here had become much less frequent.

"I've encountered a virus. I was thinking, perhaps you could help me solve this problem."

Lin Fang materialized the case containing the Medusa Virus. "Be careful. It can transform biological cells into a silicon-based state resembling stone."

"A Petrification Virus? That is truly unprecedented."

The light of a researcher's fervor immediately ignited in Isaac's eyes, but his professionalism made him restrain the impulse to open it immediately. He then pledged solemnly, "Commander, please entrust it to me. For the Empire, I will devote my life to analyzing it."

Lin Fang said with a smile, "That would be best. If you can solve it, I plan to open a passage to another world here at the Hive Base. The lifeforms there will interest you..."

"Commander, are you telling the truth?!"

Isaac's footsteps halted. He abruptly looked up, his eyes shooting forth a light intense enough to burn through anything. "Have I finally proven worthy enough to wage war for the Third Empire?!"

At this moment, the light in the old man's eyes—a desire to fight for the country unto death without retreating—shook Lin Fang.

Thus, Lin Fang's expression also turned solemn as he stood before him and said,

"That's right, Isaac. The Empire needs you."

Hearing this, Isaac trembled all over, and tears of excitement actually welled up in his eyes. "For the glory of the Empire!!"

The elderly man shouted this phrase and charged back into the laboratory.

Lin Fang: ...

Forget it, he would just keep up the deception. There was no turning back now. He couldn't bear to lose a capable assistant. If Isaac couldn't be used for his purposes, the only outcome for him would be to vanish from this world.

Old Ai, you've got to hold steady.

For the remaining time,

Lin Fang went to the surface of this world to look around. Under the effect of time, that global-scale resident evil crisis seemed to have vanished without a trace.

The Central Continent had become the world's most powerful nation, with a territory spanning 24 million square kilometers.

Tsk, what a pity. Lin Fang, sitting in the cafe, felt regretful in his heart.

Why did no one know who the greatest contributor behind all this was? With such achievements, he should at least have been given a high-ranking official position.

It is worth mentioning that, as the original perpetrator who launched the T-Virus missiles, the Umbrella Corporation was still regarded as the most evil existence, denounced by everyone.

Secondly, there was that black Marauder...

In the following time, Lin Fang traveled between the Resident Evil Dimension and reality, keeping an eye on the Hive Base's analysis of the virus while training his own Force Field.

Until a month later, the Hive Base sent Lin Fang some good news: the analysis of the Medusa Virus was complete.

Lin Fang put on protective clothing, underwent strict disinfection procedures, and entered the bio-genetics laboratory.

Precision instruments were distributed irregularly. Although Lin Fang wasn't entirely clear on their functions, he knew each one was something every biologist in the real world dreamed of possessing.

Excluding the Black Watch Base, Lin Fang had packaged quite a few for them, so he wasn't lacking...

Isaac was at the operating console, his eyes bloodshot but his expression excited.

Lin Fang frowned. "Old Ai, how many days has it been since you slept?"

[Commander, Mr. Isaac hasn't slept for a week.]

A voice sounded in the laboratory. It was Red Queen.

But neither of the two men paid her any attention.

"Commander, thank you for your concern. I can still hold on. This body can still burn for the Empire for a long time."

Isaac said to Lin Fang, "Now, let me tell you about my discoveries."

Hearing this, Lin Fang leaned in. Before them was a large, pristine white instrument resembling a freezer, with embedded grooves at both ends containing dense arrays of various components.

According to its description, it was called a Programmed Gene Overload Platform.

Isaac explained to Lin Fang with animated gestures, "We discovered a total of 3,682 genes and 83 genetic codes in the Medusa Virus's genetic sequence. Additionally, this thorn-like virus possesses a special ability: it secretes a unique enzyme, tentatively named Silicon-Based Reverse Transcriptase."

"This enzyme is extremely stealthy. It is the true reason why infected individuals petrify. This puzzled us for quite some time. My fellow researchers and I disassembled all the gene pairs of the Medusa Virus and understood the function of each pair before uncovering this fact."

Isaac shook his head with a sigh. "What a cunning virus."

Now, this virus's bottom line had finally been exposed.

Lin Fang was secretly amazed. Only a facility like the Hive Base could achieve this step so quickly. Analyzing all the genes of a virus was a massive undertaking. To reach the same result, Yodelion and the others might have needed half a year or even longer.

"Is there a solution?" Lin Fang asked.

In theory, a vaccine to prevent the Medusa Virus could already be produced. Removing the harmful genes and transforming the Medusa into a harmless virus was not difficult.

After implanting the modified harmless virus into the human body, the body would naturally produce antibodies. These antibodies would make it difficult for the Medusa Virus to gain a foothold within the human body.

This was the general principle of a vaccine.
