The system is four years ahead of schedule, but Weird is still a cub.

"..."

After listening to Deng Yuqi's account of what had happened in the past two days, Shen Ge was speechless.

The good news is that the Monster Organization didn't make any overt moves, and didn't do anything to surprise him during the two days he was in a coma; the bad news is -

My wife is gone.

Shen Ge had never expected that in just over a year, Cheng Shengnan's position in the Rong City branch had reached a level where he could attend conferences as the assistant lecturer of the Asian Anti-Ghost Research Association.

Although in his opinion, there was actually not much difference in the risk factor between leaving Cheng Shengnan in the Rong City branch and sending him to Dajing, it was indeed beyond his expectations that Cheng Shengnan was sent here.

The point is, he "disappeared" quietly.

"Where is the hotel where they had the accident? Take me there." Shen Ge said as he sat up from the bed and pulled out the tubes and detectors from his body.

Deng Yuqi hesitated and asked, "You're going now? Is your health... okay?"

"Although there are still some difficult and complicated diseases that have not been solved, it is not a big problem. At present, the injections Li Xiang gave me are quite effective. Do you have any more? Give me a few more as backup." Shen Ge said as he stretched out his hand towards Li Xiang.

Li Xiang casually put the empty syringe on the table into his hand and said speechlessly: "Please, do you know how much manpower and material resources the research department spent to make this thing? It is the only medicine that can successfully inhibit the spread of 4th-level monster cells. Its research value is no less than that of a 5th-level weird. If it weren't for you, I would have kept this medicine without hesitation and let an anti-weird agent die heroically."

Li Xiang's words sounded cold, but they were actually true, because for a researcher, a potion that could change the situation between humans and the supernatural was far more valuable than an anti-supernatural agent. It was like saving a person or saving the world, even if it was cruel, a decision still needed to be made.

Shen Ge looked at Deng Yuqi and said, "Minister, remember to check if this guy has embezzled money. 80% of the branch's expenses are spent on them. After several months of seclusion, they only produced this one potion. I suspect he must have swallowed a lot."

As he spoke, Shen Ge got off the bed and continued, "Take me to the hotel where they disappeared. Maybe I can find them."

In fact, after hearing Deng Yuqi's account of the disappearance of Cheng Shengnan and the other two girls, Shen Ge roughly guessed that they must have been pulled into the strange space like the previous Ping An Hotel incident.

Because leaving aside Yang Yuxin, a captain-level anti-spec agent, just Yoona, who is about to face the 4th level of alienation, her strength should not be underestimated.

However, there was no sign of fighting at the scene, and according to the information sent by Tu Doupi before he fell into a coma, a strange space reaction was detected in the hotel.

Combining this information, there is only one possibility, that is, similar to the situation at Ping An Hotel, Cheng Shengnan and the other two were pulled into a strange space.

Shen Ge can now actively enter the strange space of a certain area through his own strange domain. If he returns to the room where the three women live, he may be able to find them in this way.

Shen Ge believed that with the strength of Yang Yuxin and Yoona, even if they were trapped in a strange space, as long as they did not face any monsters above level 5, or were swallowed by a fusion monster, they would not have to worry about their safety in the short term.

"Who said that I made this potion after several months of seclusion? Look what this is!" Li Xiang said as he pulled a large suitcase from the side.

Inside the box was a half-meter-high, muddy, stinky mud-like mass of "flesh and blood."

"What is this?" Shen Ge asked curiously.

Li Xiang replied, "This is the product of the fusion of the rotten flesh of the Red Mist Armor with the monster samples, the original strange cells, and the things you gave me before, which you brought back from the country. You mentioned before that in order to protect Director Cheng during the battle, you tried to let Xiao Qi control the Red Mist Armor to separate the secondary armor for protection. I think this is a good idea, so I thought of using the fusion power of the Red Mist Armor to separate it."

Taking into consideration that Deng Yuqi was still nearby, Li Xiang did not directly tell Shen Ge's "secret", but instead euphemistically said "the things you gave me before".

Shen Ge understood as soon as he heard it. The things Li Xiang was referring to were the cells and blood that were extracted when he was asked to cooperate with the research.

In other words, this is a set of armor that incorporates Shen Ge's "flesh and blood".

"To put it simply, it adds strange materials and combines them with the strange cells of the original ancestor to expand the capacity of the Red Mist Armor, so that you can wear a set of Red Mist Armor yourself in battle, and at the same time let Xiao Qi control another set, or use it to protect more important people for you."

"It's a pity that it lacks a 'trick brain', which is what you call the characteristic 'never forget'. This set of armor cannot be formed without Xiao Qi's control."

"Although it is still in the testing phase, it is impossible to complete the subsequent tests without you and Xiao Qi, so I brought it here directly."

"Let Xiao Qi control the Red Mist Armor to fuse. Both have the same monster cells, so there shouldn't be any problems with the fusion."

"By the way, I've added many new functions to this set of armor. In theory, it has already met the requirements of dominating the three routes of land, sea and air. I wonder if you have anything to say now!"

Shen Ge immediately became interested when he heard it: "Haha, Lao Li is not bad, you really managed to dominate the three routes, Minister, I take back what I said just now."

"By the way, I didn't come here for nothing. Tell the minister that we got a lot of research materials from the strange space. Where are the things?" Li Xiang stretched out his hand towards Shen Ge, as if to say, if you don't give me the research materials, you can forget about taking this set of armor.

Shen Ge controlled the Corrupted Blood Tentacles to move all the captured monsters and parasitic monsters out of the Blood Skin Backpack, and said, "Be careful with the sleeping bag, the monsters in it are still alive. The rating is almost at level 4 now."

Deng Yuqi was shocked when he heard this: "Level 4 monster, you're just putting it in a weird sleeping bag like this?"

"Almost reaching level 4, but not yet level 4." Shen Ge corrected.

Li Xiang nodded affirmatively: "That is indeed a good research material. Although Yoona is more valuable, she is at least half a member of the Special Strategy Department. She cannot be killed."

"..." Deng Yuqi's eyes trembled unconsciously, and she sighed helplessly. She had long been accustomed to the "abnormality" of these two people.

Shen Ge called out Xiao Qi and asked it to control the Red Mist Armor to fuse with the sub-armor. However, at the moment when the Red Mist Armor extended its corrupted blood tentacles towards the sub-armor, Xiao Qi suddenly stopped.

"Master, this piece of armor seems to be transmitting signals, and a strange energy reaction has been detected from it." Classmate Xiao Qi said this through the headset so that only Shen Ge could hear it.

Li Xiang was still studying the pile of bottles filled with strange parasitic things on the ground, and didn't even look at Xiao Qi's fusing of the secondary armor. Deng Yuqi saw that the rotten blood tentacles suddenly stopped, and asked curiously: "What's wrong? Is there a problem with the fusion?"

Shen Ge thought for a moment, and finally chose to tell the truth: "Student Xiao Qi said that an unknown signal source and strange energy reaction were detected in this secondary armor."

"What?" Not only Deng Yuqi was surprised, but even Li Xiang, who was observing the parasitic monster, was stunned.

Shen Ge asked Xiao Qi to report the situation of the sub-armor he detected truthfully. When the two heard it, they immediately realized that the sub-armor had been tampered with.

Once Shen Ge's red mist armor is integrated with the secondary armor, even if the opponent cannot seize control from Xiao Qi, who is the main controller, it is very likely that they can place a communicator on Shen Ge to grasp his movements.

There is also the possibility that hidden dangers are buried in the Red Mist Armor, causing mistakes in Shen Ge's battle with the Monster Organization. You must know that for the Monster Organization, the biggest reason why Shen Ge is difficult to deal with is his indestructible Corrupted Blood Armor.

The artificial intelligence that is on alert 24 hours a day and the Corrupted Blood Armor that can even block artillery shells is a nightmare for the monster organization that wants his life.

Li Xiang said in a deep voice: "The sub-armor has been tampered with? This is impossible! The research on this sub-armor was handled by me alone. Even the researchers in the team were only responsible for data calculation and material data monitoring. Even if they betrayed, at most they would change the data and cause the research to fail. There is no possibility of touching the sub-armor, let alone installing a tracker on it."

Shen Ge chose to tell the truth about what Xiao Qi had detected, and naturally he believed in the performance of Deng Yuqi and Li Xiang. He did not believe that Li Xiang had gone to great lengths to develop a set of secondary armor just to deal with the red mist armor he had developed before.

You should know that the Red Mist Armor was designed and researched entirely by Li Xiang. If he wanted to tamper with the Red Mist Armor, he would not have to use the method of sub-armor fusion. He could just let Shen Ge leave the armor to him for "upgrade". Why bother with that?
What's more, whether it is for Deng Yuqi or Li Xiang, the problem of the Red Mist Armor, which is one of Shen Ge's biggest "cards", is a huge loss.

"Wait!" Deng Yuqi suddenly thought of something and told Shen Ge that she had received the news from Fang Mingyue and had gone to Li Xiang to discuss the list of people for the meeting.

"He looked like a completely different person in the surveillance video?"

"You woke up but have no relevant memories?"

Shen Ge frowned when he heard this. His thoughts at this moment were similar to Li Xiang's judgment at the beginning. If it was a method used by the monster organization, then why didn't the other party use this ability to carry out assassinations, or to obtain more valuable information? Why did they steal some data of monster samples?
Another point is, did the other party use his ability to control Li Xiang only this time, or had he secretly done so many times before?
You have to know that Li Xiang has no memory of being controlled... The reason why he was discovered this time was largely because Deng Yuqi found a problem when connecting information with Cheng Shengnan.

If it is true as Li Xiang said, that no one except him can touch the sub-armor, and even the materials need to be tested by him personally, then combined with the current situation, it can be inferred that Li Xiang was "controlled" not just that once, and it is very likely that he has been controlled many times before.

But the question is again, if the other party has such powerful "ability", why doesn't he use it on more valuable things, but choose these insignificant things?
Shen Ge couldn't understand the other party's motives for a moment. After analyzing with Deng Yuqi and Li Xiang, he decided to continue "monitoring" Li Xiang until the problem was solved.

Li Xiang didn't think this made sense, because he was also worried that he would threaten the safety of his teacher and junior sister while being "controlled". Although he was being "monitored" by the captain-level members, it was also a disguised form of protection.

"Student Xiaoqi, do you have any way to solve the problem of the secondary armor?" Li Xiang asked.

The most important thing right now is the integration of the secondary armor. If it doesn't work, he can only give up, because Shen Ge still has to go to the strange space to find the missing three women, and there is not so much time to waste.

"Master, I can try it with the blood spider first. Even if the blood spider is swallowed by the secondary armor, it will not affect the red mist armor." Xiao Qi said.

Shen Ge nodded: "Okay, I'll do as you say."

After Xiao Qi gained control of the Red Mist Armor, he released several blood spiders to climb onto the secondary armor, but they were quickly devoured by the rotten flesh of the secondary armor.

"Master, I found the tracker." As soon as Xiao Qi finished speaking, a blood spider crawled out of the rotten meat with a chip the size of a fingernail in its mouth.

"This is..." After Li Xiang noticed the small chip, he picked up the small chip from the blood spider's mouth with tweezers and studied it carefully.

Deng Yuqi asked: "Do you have any impression?"

"This is the main research project of another team in our department. It is a new intelligent AI created with Xiaoqi as a reference. The original intention was to control the new mecha troops developed by the Special Strategy Department in this way. However, although artificial intelligence can meet the requirements, the mecha cannot be completely controlled by "commands". In the end, it still has to rely on human power, so this plan was stopped." Li Xiang said.

Shen Ge pondered and said, "It seems that although this new type of artificial intelligence cannot control the strange mecha, it has no problem controlling the red mist armor. The person who put this chip in not only knows the purpose of your research on the secondary armor, but also wants to let the new intelligent AI and Xiao Qi seize control while I am fusing the secondary armor... Tsk tsk, it seems that there is a traitor in the branch again? Minister, I think we should change the name of our department to 'Brewery'. Anyway, except for you, everyone else may be an 'undercover'."

"..." Deng Yuqi was speechless. Including the previous invasions by the monsters of the Twelve Zodiacs, there were indeed several incidents of internal traitors in the Special Initiatives Department.

Deng Yuqi sighed: "The problem still lies in the headquarters' plan to recruit the Haiya Research Institute. No one knows the list except the people who proposed the plan. It seems that all the people recruited are researchers, but no one knows whether these researchers are members of the weird organization."

Shen Ge asked: "Have you checked the list of the first batch of researchers of the Haiya Research Institute that I brought back earlier? Did you find anything?"

Deng Yuqi shook his head: "It happened too long ago, and there was help from above at the beginning, so investigating this 'infiltration plan' is harder than climbing to the sky."

While they were talking, Xiao Qi was trying to use the blood spider to continue checking the secondary armor, and found that there was more than one chip.

Shen Ge stared at the chip on Li Xiang's tweezers and suddenly asked, "What do you think... Is it possible to counter the other party's 'tracking plan' through Xiao Qi? In this way, we can pull out the people hiding behind the scenes, and follow the clues. Maybe we can find those people back then!" (End of this chapter)
