Zhou Qi listened to Uka's explanation, his brows furrowed tightly into a 'river' character, and the doubts in his heart were like rolling dark clouds, growing thicker.
Just then, Wang Yufei's phone suddenly received a new message. He hastily pulled out his phone to check it, and his expression instantly changed slightly.
He quickly composed himself and reported to Zhou Qi, "Master, there's a new development! A Parasite sent an urgent message. He discovered an extremely mysterious organization called the Freemasons. This organization has existed for hundreds of years, and its headquarters are located in the Beautiful Country."
"According to him, this organization has been secretly researching and creating various strange creatures since its inception, and this Ning Gen is precisely their 'masterpiece.'"
At this point, Wang Yufei's tone carried a hint of regret, "However, this Parasite is only an outer member of the Freemasons and has very limited knowledge of the organization's internal affairs. He doesn't even know how many people are in the Freemasons or the exact location of the organization; he only knows some scattered information about Ning Gen."
Zhou Qi's eyes instantly became sharp as an eagle's, as if two cold glints could pierce through darkness and see through everything.
"Freemasons? I didn't expect this mysterious organization, rumored in short videos, to actually exist! And an organization that can even create strange creatures like Ning Gen must have untold secrets hidden behind it. It seems we must investigate further and absolutely not allow them to threaten our development from the shadows."
As he spoke, he rapidly pondered countermeasures in his mind.
Currently, although his influence was continuously growing, with many powerful dependents and advanced technology under his command, facing an organization that had been rumored for hundreds of years still required cautious action. He had to find them first before he could eliminate them.
After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Qi said to Wang Yufei, "Immediately have the Parasites intensify their activities in the Beautiful Country, focusing on all information related to the Freemasons. Anyone closely linked to the information, parasitize them all!"
Wang Yufei responded with an unequivocal "Yes" and then rushed off to execute the mission.
In the following days, the viral news about Ning Gen seemed to be forcibly wiped from the internet by an invisible hand, leaving no trace. Even if people specifically searched on major search engines, all they got was a blank.
At the same time, the entertainment industry seemed to have its 'reveal' switch pressed, continuously throwing out several bombshells: a famous movie star's affair, a top singer's drug use.
These messages instantly occupied the headlines of major media outlets, successfully attracting public attention and completely drowning out the news of Ning Gen in the flood of information.
In the Beautiful Country, several parasitized congressmen, like ghosts hidden in the darkness, quietly carried out parasitizing actions according to Zhou Qi's instructions.
They moved through various high-end social occasions, using political dinners, business meetings, and other opportunities to subtly approach target individuals.
At a lavish dinner held to celebrate the passage of a new bill, the lights were dazzling, and people were elegantly dressed.
A parasitized congressman, with a beaming smile and a glass of champagne in hand, seemingly casually conversed with the high-ranking officials around him.
His gaze seemed nonchalant, but in reality, he was constantly looking for an opportunity to strike.
Finally, he spotted a cabinet member crucial to their plan. He subtly approached him, and as the two were deep in pleasant conversation,
A Mind Control Demon Bug hidden in his cuff silently flew out, precisely landing on the cabinet member's head, instantly releasing powerful Mental Energy to invade his brain.
Before long, the cabinet member's eyes became vacant, and he completely became a Puppet of Zhou Qi's forces.
Thus, through a series of meticulously planned operations, more and more high-ranking officials of the Beautiful Country were parasitized. Zhou Qi's power, like cancer cells, gradually encroached upon the core power structure of the Beautiful Country.
During this process, Wang Yufei made an astonishing discovery.
While investigating a Beautiful Country congressman, he found that this person was a Lizardmen named Kthulhu.
Kthulhu was not only a high-ranking official of the Beautiful Country Red Cross but also played a very special role in the Beautiful Country's core power circle.
What shocked Wang Yufei even more was that Kthulhu's true identity was not a secret among many high-ranking officials of the Beautiful Country.
According to a congressman who was parasitized, Kthulhu possessed a horrifying ability—he could cruelly kill young people, then refine their blood to infuse all life vitality into their organs.
He would then extract these fresh organs and replace the organs of those high-ranking congressmen and big capitalists, thereby extending their lives.
Wang Yufei dared not delay for a moment and immediately reported this important intelligence to Zhou Qi.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qi's face instantly darkened, his eyes flickering with sparks of anger, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "These guys are simply insane! To satisfy their selfish desires, they commit such inhumane acts!"
But Zhou Qi quickly calmed down. He knew that this was an excellent opportunity to further strike at the high-level forces of the Beautiful Country and throw them into chaos.
Through a mental connection, Zhou Qi issued detailed instructions to Wang Yufei: "Closely monitor Kthulhu's every move, especially the location, time, and participants of his illegal organ transactions. Once you have solid evidence, expose it to the public to incite public anger."
"Remember not to report the presence of Lizardmen, but to direct the issue towards organ trafficking. At the same time, continue to intensify the parasitizing of high-ranking officials in the Beautiful Country, controlling as many core power figures of this country as possible, so that they can be used by us."
Upon receiving the order, Wang Yufei did not dare to be negligent. He quickly organized the Parasites to conduct 24-hour continuous surveillance on Kthulhu.
The Parasites used various advanced technical means, installing hidden surveillance equipment around Kthulhu's residence and workplace, and also arranging special personnel to track his movements.
After a period of arduous effort, they finally gathered enough evidence.
This evidence meticulously recorded the victims' information, the time and location of the transactions, and the list of participants, and even included some video footage of the transaction process.
Wang Yufei, following Zhou Qi's instructions, gradually exposed this evidence through the dark web, anonymous leaks, and other means.
Initially, these messages only spread on some niche forums, but as more and more people paid attention, the matter quickly escalated.
Major media outlets also followed up with reports, and instantly, public opinion in the Beautiful Country was in an uproar. Upon learning the truth, the public's anger erupted like a volcanic eruption.
They took to the streets one after another, holding large-scale protest activities.
The crowd held banners with slogans such as "Severely Punish the Murderers" and "Give Us Justice," and the shouts were deafening.
The protests quickly spread throughout the country, and the Beautiful Country government fell into a huge crisis. The domestic situation was turbulent and unstable, and the government's credibility was severely challenged.
