Chapter 296: Chapter 67: Too Coincidental, Sends Shivers Down the Spine_3
Afterwards, he commanded the intelligent puppets to take the bodies of the six different fairy mutants, and six living fairy captives, to the freezer and the isolation cell.
After doing all these, old Morpheus sat next to Link, curiously asking:
“Why do you raise the alarm level of the freezer and the isolation cell so high? Caution is good, but these fairies, both the dead and the living ones, have already lost their ability to resist. Aren’t you being overly cautious?”
Link paused his writing, looked up at old Morpheus, and solemnly said, “The three rainforest fairies we received earlier have begun to mutate. Moreover, death seems to accelerate the mutation! I am worried about accidents.”
“Hmm…”
Old Morpheus’s face instantly became serious, “Are you sure? The command post has repeatedly tested and confirmed that all living creatures sent to the rear camp are in a normal state without any mutations. Even the mutant bodies have been specifically treated and will not cause contagion.”
Link said: “I don’t know about the others, but at least the three fairies that were sent to us earlier have already begun to mutate.”
Old Morpheus pondered for a while and said, “This matter is extraordinary, we must produce solid evidence before we can report to the higher-ups, otherwise…”
He did not continue.
But Link already understood what old Morpheus meant.
The command post had done the tests and confirmed the results before transporting them to several organizations in the rear camp.
None of the other organizations had any issues, but only the Potion Department pointed out that there was a mistake in their work that almost caused a fairy plague outbreak, causing severe losses.
Given the current reputation of the Potion Department, if they cannot produce strong evidence, it would cause significant trouble.
Moreover, even if they present solid evidence, they may still offend people.
Link did not intend to involve himself in this matter.
His responsibility was research. When to report, how to report, and to whom to report was old Morpheus’s responsibility as the Potion Department Head.
With these thoughts, Link operated on his intelligent mind and produced a detailed contrast report temporarily.
It compared various signs of mutation in rainforest fairies and mutant bodies, cataloging, and comparing them one by one.
It included text, pictures, videos, and the results of the examination of blood and tissue fluid.
The evidence was very comprehensive.
He projected the contrast report from his intelligent mind onto the public intelligent mind for old Morpheus to read.
As a senior second-level wizard, even if he always claimed that he didn’t like research, old Morpheus’s knowledge and academic quality would not be lacking.
If a wizard doesn’t understand research, is he still a wizard?
Old Morpheus read the contrast report that Link had temporarily created several times, and his face became increasingly serious each time.
Especially the points that Link emphasized, the retention and enhancement of mutation on the fairy’s inherent ability and the slightly mentioned hypothesis that the change in life form might be related to the reinforcing mechanism.
These two points were information that old Morpheus had not been aware of before.
Perhaps other researchers who were studying the fairy disease and mutation had discovered these two points, and old Morpheus just had not seen their research reports.
“You continue your research first, let me know what you need. As for the Potion Department’s duties, there’s no rush to restart them, focus on this first.”
Old Morpheus quickly made a decision to fully support Link’s work.
Developing and concocting potions?
That can wait till later.
It’s not like the Medical Department on the front line doesn’t love to do it, just let them do it if it comes to that.
The old man will change the Potion Department to the Biological Research Department if he must!
The head of the Biological Research Department, that title isn’t so bad.
Yes!
