Value
Conrads left the medical room with a heavy heart. The Lashudia Clan were currently the most technologically advanced race on the entire battlefield, and even on the entire Frontline Base. And his flagship had the most complete and sophisticated facilities in the entire Lashudia Clan fleet.
It could be said that within a radius of hundreds of light-years, apart from the Epoch Clan's Garrison Point and the Zerg's territory, there were probably no more advanced medical facilities in his area.
But now, they hadn't found anything at all. Conrads didn't know what to say; his feelings were very complicated—a mixture of relief at not finding anything and a sense of disappointment.
Logically, he should be completely relieved now. But sometimes, only when problems are identified and visible can we find targeted solutions. If we can't even find the problem, we won't know where to begin, even if we want to.
Although all the information he received indicated that everything was normal, Conrads still had a feeling that something was definitely wrong with the Zerg's Stellar Bomb program.
He doesn't have paranoia, at least not before. But now he's unsure whether the pressure of war has caused him to develop this psychological condition.
After all, this chaotic battle, involving nearly 10 billion enemies, was unprecedented not only for him but also in the history of the Star Sea Alliance. As the fleet commander who made history, it was normal for him to feel some pressure.
However, before actually engaging in battle with the Zerg, he had always thought that this war would be easy and pleasant, forcing the Zerg to detonate the Stellar Bomb, while also setting a trap for those outer and Mid-Ring Civilizations who were speaking ill of the Lashudia Clan behind their backs. Under such circumstances, there shouldn't be any psychological pressure.
But it's hard to say. It's possible that he wasn't aware of it, but his subconscious felt the pressure, which then led to a series of problems and made him somewhat sensitive.
"No, wait! "Conrads suddenly realized. It was now almost certain that there was something wrong with the Zerg's Stellar Bomb.
It's not that the Zerg's Stellar Bomb plan is fake; after all, the war has only been going on for a short time, and even if both sides maintain a high-intensity exchange of fire, this war will last at least a year or two. Even if the Stellar Bomb plan is real, the Zerg are not yet at their wits' end, and there is no need to detonate it.
He believed there was something wrong with this matter because it was extremely unscientific to assume that there was a Stellar Bomb waiting for the Coalition Army and to make plans for it before even confirming its authenticity.
But no one, including Conrads, had noticed anything amiss before. And that's precisely what's truly abnormal.
Conrads previously believed that it was the attitudes of those around him that subtly influenced his judgment, and that he himself had no problems.
But just now, he suddenly realized that perhaps there was something wrong with him. Because he was unconsciously trying to find a reasonable excuse for this abnormal situation.
Was this idea also forcibly instilled by the Zerg through some means? This kind of self-doubt about one's own understanding is even more terrifying than teammates who are difficult to trust.
Conrads returned to the bridge in a daze, the whispers of the demons seemingly echoing in his ears. His scalp tingled, and he looked around at his people with a somewhat nervous gaze.
Conrads's unusual behavior wasn't obvious. The Adjutant and crew in the command room only noticed that his gaze was strange, but they didn't think much of it.
Conrads reached for his left arm with his right hand, where a slight bulge appeared. It was a piece of junk that his kinsman Mowei had sold to him; according to Mowei, it was a good find he'd gotten from a black market at the Frontline Base.
That was a rare item called the Zerg Personal Biological Armor. Mowei once acquired one at a huge cost at an auction in the Mid-Ring Civilizations, in which he offended many important figures in the Mid-Ring Civilizations.
These rare and highly sought-after items are extremely scarce in the rear, but this is, after all, the front line closest to the Zerg. Many people who had done business within Zerg territory retreated here after the war began, bringing with them some Zerg specialties.
Because Mowei enjoyed traveling, he wasn't too far from the Frontline Base when he received the war notice, so he arrived at the front nearly ten years earlier than his own fleet.
Over the years, with his background in the strongest Chinese civilization, he naturally acquired some valuable items, but only he knows the specific methods he used.
When Conrads arrived at the Frontline Base, Mowei showed his friend his collection from that time. As a high-ranking figure, Conrads naturally had considerable knowledge.
When Mowei acquired the Zerg Biological Armor at great expense, he showed it off to Conrads. Among Mowei's collection, Conrads immediately recognized the unclaimed Zerg Biological Armor.
Then, Mowei told him how he obtained this valuable item and how he planned to take it back to the rear for auction, determined to earn back all the money he had spent last time.
Although the Zerg are currently being condemned by everyone, Zerg products have an excellent reputation, with everyone who has used them giving them a thumbs up. Therefore, when Conrads saw this suit of armor, he had an idea.
The specific process will not be elaborated here. In the end, Conrads paid a price and successfully obtained the Zerg Biological Armor from Mowei.
And then, he couldn't wait to use it.
The Zerg item received no negative reviews, which naturally pleased Conrads. Its various functions greatly improved his safety. Even in space, this armor could help him survive for a period of time, which was extremely useful in the upcoming great war.
But now, the armor attached to his left arm was faintly heating up. After what had just happened, Conrads was quite sensitive to the word "Zerg".
My first thought was whether his current problem was caused by this Biological Armor. After all, it was attached to his body and had been reported, so even if the instruments detected it, they wouldn't issue an alarm.
Then he wondered, if the problem really was with this particular suit of armor, then wouldn't Mowei, who already possessed a set, also have a problem?
Looking back now, the armor that Mowei sold him was priced quite low, barely covering the value of the armor he had purchased. Keep in mind, with the war against the Zerg underway, these armors are becoming increasingly rare, and their value has increased immeasurably compared to decades ago.
His close relationship with Mowei, at least in Conrads' current view, is not enough to compare with these increased values.
