Artificial Pestilence Plan (II)

A look akin to panic appeared on Zhou Zhi's face.

"Ah, sir, this... what is going on?"

"What are you talking about?"

That was how he looked on the surface, but Zhou Zhi was grumbling inwardly.

He truly had not expected them to pull something like this.

Come on, it was him. How could they just make a move against him without warning?

If the people below found out about this, it would be all too easy for them to become disloyal.

"Wait, I heard the words 'Artificial Pestilence'!"

Twenty-Three was even more sensitive to that.

"These people are manufacturing pestilences?"

Among Twenty-Three's hereditary arts was a Plague Extermination Art called [Reverse Creation].

It could use a Pathogenized Object to trace back its source pestilence, then turn it into a combat-capable pestilence entity to aid in battle. Of course, the summoned pestilence was still far weaker than the original. In Zhou Zhi's eyes, that did not count as an artificial pestilence.

Creating a pestilence from nothing, one that had never existed in the world before—that was an artificial pestilence.

"Nothing."

Xu Xian spoke indifferently. "By the way... I heard the Artificial Pestilence Plan is already highly complete?"

"If Hua Qianqiu's technology is used, perhaps humans could achieve good results by coexisting with artificial pestilences."

"Of course, that is merely my speculation."

Xu Huanjun raised a hand. "The laboratory is still conducting research. Artificial pestilences are far too lethal to humans. This month alone, more than three hundred symbiotic test subjects have died. But there is an upside: we have determined the strength of synthetic pestilences."

The acne on his face radiated malice, while the vicious grin on his lips brought an oppressive sense of terror.

"Looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to it."
