Chapter 298: Chapter 68: Epidemic? Mutation? It’s
Biochemical Transformation !_2
The captain of the guard squad furrowed his brow even further.
To guard the portal?
This matter isn’t as simple as it sounds.
This suggests that the trouble caused by the detection team isn’t trivial, and if their worst pre-emptive assessments are right, it could even affect the portal. If this were to happen, the merits of the matter would be completely different. No longer would this simply be an internal issue within the detection team, instead, this was a matter related to the potential danger of the entire frontline command post and the entire wizard army.
The captain’s expression hardened slightly as he suggested, “Koir, hurry up and report this to wizard Palo. Don’t delay the matter.”
As he spoke, the captain quietly prepared himself.
If he heeds the advice, all the better.
If he doesn’t, then this friendly suggestion would need to be reinforced as a strong command.
The captain of the guard, bearing the substantial responsibility of the command post’s security, had the power to do so.
“Alright, I’ll leave now.”

He immediately took action, heading straight towards the tent where wizard Palo was staying with the guard’s captain.
Wizard Palo was the highest leader in the wizard army.
The place where he was located was the core of the entire frontline command post, and even the entire army.
Personnel from different departments were constantly coming and going to report their work, to give feedback, to make applications, to report on their duties…
Everyone had their requests.
What wizard Palo had to do was to make various judgements with the advice of the staff at the staff department.
The security work of the highest leader of the wizard army was of course not child splay.
Indeed, it was not easy for just anyone who wished to see him.
First, they had to go through security, then submit their applications.
Even when the captain of the guard who designed the security protocol arrived in person, the guard still dutifully carried out the eight-level security inspection before letting them through.
The two were stopped again as they approached the tent. They were asked to register and apply and wait for approval.
After the report was made and they had waited a few minutes, the captain of he guard and Koir, the head of the detection team were then allowed to enter. “What’s the matter?”
wizard Palo, who was looking at the holographic map of the known areas of the fairy world, was figuring out how to advance and progress the third warfare. He didn t even lift his head as he asked directly.
The captain of the guard kept his mouth shut.
the t’rmh the deteCti°n team’ did nOt dare t0 Wde anythingl he rep°rted However, he only said that he received an intelligence. He hid the existence of old man Morpheus.
Upon hearing this, wizard Palo paced a few steps as if he had thought of something amusing. A smile appeared on his face that the captain hadn’t seen for a while, and said:
“It must be old man Morpheus who gave you this intelligence. Otherwise, I can’t think of anyone else in the rear camp who would notice the issues that you overlooked, and then choose to give you a heads up rather than report it straight to me.”
After a pause, wizard Palo no longer smiled. He stared into Koir’s eyes and slowly said: “This oversight is really amateurish. As the leader of the detection group, how on earth could you let this happen? How is it that you need others to remind you of it?”
Koir moved his lips a few times, trying to speak. However, he didn’t dare to mention that he had been so focused on solving the problem of the ‘forbidden rug these past few days, he had neglected his duty to manage the detection team.
He could only lower his head to admit his mistakes, portraying himself as accepting any scolding or punishment.
“Alright, go back and re-examine yourself carefully. Afterwards, write self- criticism and publish it on the army’s internal network. Don’t make such an embarrassing situation again!”
Seeing this, wizard Palo immediately lost his good mood and announced his punishment.
He waved his hand, signaling that the captain of the guard and Koir should leave, showing he didn’t intend to pursue the matter any further.
At the present moment, he did not have enough trustworthy personnel. Facing ex ernal enemies and internal spies, it was not wise to lose more manpower.
In employing people, you make use of their strengths and tolerate their shortcomings.
You can’t completely abandon a person because they’ve made a single mistake. After punishment, it’s necessary to give them an opportunity to learn from their error, thereby verifying the effects.
He believed that after being taught a lesson this way, similar oversights wouldn’t occur in the future.
“Yes!”
Having escaped a catastrophe, Koir was overjoyed, and heaved a big sigh of relief, and then responded loudly.
The captain of the guard only remained silent and made a bow.
The two exited the tent and walked a little further until they reached a slightly more distant area and stopped.
The captain of the guard looked at Koir, who exhibited an expression of happiness, and reminded him in a heavy voice: “Sort everything out as soon as possible, and make sure that there is absolutely no problem. Otherwise, even though wizard Palo forgave you once, he won’t forgive you a second time.”
Yes, I will, thank you for your reminder.”
Koir wiped his forehead as though wiping off sweat that wasn’t there.
He couldn’t help but imagine the scenario if the oversight hadn’t been discovered, resulting in a volatile situation, which made him feel anxious.
Koir bid his farewells to the captain, then returned to the detection team, starting a new round of more meticulous inspections.
He resolved to figure out the links and reasons that led to the problem.
Link had no idea of the controversy caused by his findings and comparative report in the frontline command post.
He was busy investigating the impact and mechanisms of the mutations on fairy inherent abilities.
First, he performed a complete check and analysis on the two remaining Rainforest Fairies from the first batch.
The results showed:
The Rainforest Fairy that had been eating properly had a milder infection, and its mutation was hardly noticeable;
The Rainforest Fairy that had been starving had a more severe infection with quite obvious mutations. The three points in its pupils have enlarged and could be clearly distinguished from the outside.
From this, it was inferred that the speed and degree of mutation might be strongly associated with vitality.
Then he performed a physical and biochemical test on the six fairies from different tribes that were sent in the next batch.
Unsurprisingly, all six fairies carried the source of the disease.
Perhaps it was because they were just captured, both the physical and mental states of these six fairies were quite good.
They continually attempted to resist throughout the examination.
However, their actions were not like that of beasts, but were rather typical of an intelligent race.
Through physical inspection and observation, Link made a few relatively superficial observations and conjectures:
