"Among the seven people, one has decided not to get married. Moreover, it’s a Beastman! Forget it, there’s nothing to worry about, we still have six left!"
"Damn! Out of the six remaining, three have a crush on Lu Yu! Are they blind? Yu is more handso, more skilled, and has a better family background than Lu Yu! Never mind, there are still three left!"
Wearing a white lab coat and conducting an experint, Gu Yu’s forehead twitched.
He rubbed his temples.
Fortunately, at this mont, the spaceship finally arrived at Naless Star. As previously advised by Gu Yu, everyone wore air-filtering masks when disembarking.
Of course, so people took off their masks after a while.
Such as Lin Tao and his departnt mbers.
Lin Tao sneered, "I ca to this place not long ago, and there’s no problem with the air at all. If mutated plants affected the air, would thousands of people still be alive?"
The few deputies around him didn’t dare to speak ill of Gu Yu but still tried to flatter Lin Tao by removing their masks.
Not to ntion, wearing masks is quite uncomfortable.
The dical team looked over and frowned slightly. Soone reminded, "It’s not safe for you to do this."
Lin Tao sneered, "If even breathing is unsafe, then we might as well die! You dics really love to exaggerate everything!"
He still held a grudge against Gu Yu for burning his hair.
Seeing the dical team made him even more displeased.
The person felt speechless, took their advice as ingratitude, and decided to ignore them.
This matter quickly reached Gu Yu’s ears at the back of the team. He laughed, saying, "He will never understand how serious it is to offend a dic."
Putting that aside, now that they’re here to provide aid on Barren Star for so ti, if Lin Tao and his subordinates get sick, do they plan to go untreated?
"Let’s go, the patients in the city are waiting for our treatnt. Everyone, be careful not to get infected."
"Dr. Gu, do you think the mutated plants here have already parasitized humans?" a doctor asked.
Gu Yu replied, "The plant mutations here are extrely deep and quite strange. Everyone should prepare psychologically."
He once saw a person deeply parasitized by plants; the person’s body had turned into wood, but their eyeballs could still move because the brain hadn’t been invaded.
He was in terrible pain, begging Gu Yu to end his life.
So plants parasitize humans, and if humans win the battle, they evolve into Plantn.
This forms the core of so current Plantn.
However, so plants are more aggressive and eventually deplete all human nutrients.
But this is a long process. Only extrely ferocious plants can drain a human quickly. So, if identified early, it can be treated by surgically removing and killing the parasitic part.
But so people, aspiring to beco Plantn, take risks.
When Gu Yu returned to his thoughts, he had already entered the main city with the group.
Although it’s Barren Star, due to its energy source, it was developed early. The infrastructure here is quite good, making it habitable and opening job opportunities, attracting drifters from other planets.
So the city’s construction is decent, but despite its size, it’s eerily quiet. Few people walk the streets, and those who do, rush nervously.
So children stopped to look at the rescue team, but adults quickly took them ho and shut the doors.
The base leader, a Beastman in his forties nad Cairo, excitedly told Adolf, "Sir, you’ve finally arrived! Today, another ten people went missing. They sneaked out of the city to find food and never returned."
The city walls are high with various electronic devices around, ensuring safety within the city, temporarily free from mutated plants.
But...
Gu Yu stood a few steps behind Adolf, observing and squinting.
Is the city really safe? Probably not.
Cairo noticed the crew wearing masks and hesitated. Adolf said, "Let’s discuss it inside the managent office."
"Yes, yes."
Since there were many people in the rescue team needing accommodation, each departnt took charge of their tasks. Gu Yu brought his subordinate doctors to inspect the managent staff first.
Cairo realized and exclaid, "Sir Adolf, do you suspect our staff has issues? Impossible! We conduct strict daily inspections!"
The other staff looked uneasy.
Who would want to be under such suspicion?
Adolf chuckled, "It’s routine, don’t be overly nervous."
His words eased Cairo and his subordinates.
Gu Yu noticed a staff mber with excessively green hair and calmly said, "We should be cautious. Otherwise, if soone thinks they can fight off the mutated plants, they’ll end up completely depleted of nutrients."
Cairo knew Gu Yu well: not only was this young man skilled in dicine and high in Combat Power, but his powerful connections were also not to be trifled with!
So Cairo adopted a more respectful tone, "Dr. Gu, you’re right, we must take this seriously. If our staff has problems, the base’s civilians are in greater peril. Quickly, everyone queue up according to your ID codes for Dr. Gu’s inspection!"
After speaking, he cut the line, standing at the front of the inspection queue.
The inspection was swift as Gu Yu’s team brought specialized equipnt, allowing Cairo to return to Adolf within minutes, breathing a sigh of relief.
However, Cairo relaxed too soon.
While he, as the highest official in the base, had no issues, it didn’t an others were problem-free.
The dical examination device emitted a sharp sound, causing soone’s face to change, and they turned to flee but were swiftly stopped by the Star Warriors.
The staff mber imdiately said, "I’m fine! Really!"
Gu Yu asked, "Then why are you running? You still seem lucid, so even if accidentally parasitized, if the degree isn’t deep, a simple surgery will suffice."
So, why are you running?
The person’s face turned pale, feebly explaining, "I... I’m just scared, that’s why I reacted so strongly."
Gu Yu checked the person’s examination report and then told a nearby doctor, "He’s parasitized by thirty percent; arrange surgery quickly. During the operation, bind his limbs."
