Chapter 1553: Chapter 1553: Finding Him Is the Top Priority
The spatial ray swept over a few strands of hair, Chang Bei nonchalantly brushed them off, took her coat, and put it back on. "I’ll make a trip, if you’re worried about Xu Huo ssing things up, seize the ti."
Xue Lang tightened his mouth without saying anything, while Chang Bei glanced at him with extre sarcasm before leaving.
"Bang!" Xue Lang smashed the communicator in his hand, and then his bloodshot eyes turned outward, his gaze falling on those players who were attracted by the commotion.

There was little to do while waiting. After Dou Shengnan was held back by the players, Xu Huo left the girl in the painting behind, instructing her not to turn back into paper form, and departed from the combat base.
He randomly collected so people in the Capital Safe Zone, and along the way, he encountered so trapped players from Zone 014, lending them a hand to solve their troubles.
"Mr. Xu!" A player from the Special Defense Departnt called out to him again.
This ti Xu Huo finally stopped, only after dealing with a spying player not far away did he look at these people, expressionless he said, "Can you try a bit harder to be smarter? If you can’t, at least silently repeat ’know what is appropriate’."
The player was a bit apologetic, "I know calling out your identity hastily might bring you trouble, but we have to do it, the minister insists on contacting you no matter what, it has beco the top priority task for players in Zone 017 right now."
When the "Begging Trio" previously uncovered his identity, Xu Huo had ignored it, partly because he had no special matters to intersect with the Special Defense Departnt, and also because the fewer people who knew his information, the better. Unexpectedly, the Departnt had publicly announced to all task personnel about him being in Zone 017.
Noticing his displeasure, the player hastily said, "We actually didn’t see through your disguise, but you’re the only one who would lend a hand to help us here, plus you being a Super Evolver..."
Xu Huo raised his hand to stop him, "Speak about the important matters."
The player straightened his face, "Here’s the situation."
The cause was the appearance of a new type of virus in the country, initially spreading only among pregnant won, but after mutating, it affected won of all ages. In just half a month, over a thousand people had died from the virus, and this was due to concentrated outbreaks and quick lockdowns.
But before the Special Defense Departnt could find an effective potion, the sa virus broke out in three other places, and it was suspected to be intentionally released, with the distances quite far apart.
This ans that rely controlling the infected personnel wouldn’t stop the spread, and a targeted potion was necessary.
However, the virus was extrely high level, and Zone 014 hadn’t found a suitable potion yet. The latest news was that the virus was actually a mutated ultrafine fungus, and ordinary antitoxins had no effect, not even prolonging the patients’ lives.
The only effective solution was the King Bacterial Liquid Xu Huo initially provided, but there wasn’t much high-concentration liquid left with the Special Defense Departnt because the King Fungus Xu Huo left in the reservoir during the Black Rain incident had been diluted and mostly used up after the event ended, leaving none for experintation.
"The mutated fungal infection was kept secret from us until today, we just learned of the details." The player said, "The minister instructed us to find you at all costs, and now all players from Zone 014 are dispersed across different cities. We didn’t expect to et you here."
The player cald his emotions again and said, "The Special Defense Departnt promises to trade anything with you for the Antidote Fungus Liquid."
A fungus that infects only won and is suspected to be released intentionally, one can imagine what this implies. No country would dare gamble with ti in such a situation, so the Special Defense Departnt ca without conditions, anything Xu Huo wanted that they had was open for exchange!
The six players from the Special Defense Departnt who were rescued all looked nervously at Xu Huo, afraid he would refuse, and even more afraid he would say there was nothing he could do.
"What’s your na?" Xu Huo asked the player he was talking to.
The man in his thirties was startled for a mont and hurriedly said, "My na is Qian Qiyun, Rank-C player, profession is repairman!"
Xu Huo nodded, took out two boxes of King Bacterial Liquid stored in the luggage compartnt.
This bacterial liquid was created by him fusing King Fungus Mycelium with antitoxin, the primary function of the antitoxin was to provide a growth environnt for the mycelium, and the mycelium detached from his body could survive for a while, during which it was the most effective in detoxification.
Since only King Bacterial Liquid had so effect on the mutated fungal infection, it indicated the fungi were also alive, either kill all the fungi in one go or inject living King Fungus.
The King Fungus could survive for a period within the human body or in nutrient liquid and other potions, taking Xu Huo himself as an example, if there were no influence from the Nüwa Stone, the King Fungus in his body would die within thirty days, and the extracted mycelium would last even shorter.
"Use them all within seven days, separate 2 and 3 boxes." Xu Huo said, "Notify
if there is news."
"Oh, the minister also specifically ntioned that he said the King Fungus Liquid can only extend the infected person’s life for a few days." Qian Qiyun took the boxes and added.
It had been a long ti since the King Bacterial Liquid was provided, the King Fungus Mycelium couldn’t possibly be alive now, but the concentration was incomparable to diluted liquid, the fact that it could still work ant the King Fungus was useful.
"I don’t have much bacterial liquid at the mont, the 3 box was not fully made, the antidote fungus is still alive, the sooner it is used, the better the effect." Xu Huo continued, "Subsequent treatnt process should be sent to , I may not return to Zone 014 in ti."
The six players used their own potion kits to divide the sixty bottles of antitoxin, then agreed on a contact thod with him and left Zone 017.
After they all left, Xu Huo turned around to look at the building opposite.
The floor-to-ceiling windows of the entire office building were all shattered, the higher the floor, the stronger the wind passing through both side windows, similarly on the twentieth floor, Chang Bei stood with hands in both pockets by the window fra, also looking at Xu Huo.
After a mont she finally spoke, "Long ti no see, you haven’t changed a bit."
Xu Huo had already guessed her identity, smiled slightly, "Have you been back ho?"
Chang Bei’s expression remained unchanged, "I haven’t had a ho for a long ti, but I visited near your ho a few days ago."
Xu Huo also showed no change in expression, "Did Xue Lang go?"
"No, but that man is emotionally unstable, he might rember to go soday," Chang Bei said, "other than Doctor Zhang, no one can restrain him."
"Do you still often et Doctor Zhang?" Xu Huo asked.
"Not often," Chang Bei replied, "it’s mostly through props that we contact, he’s been busy with sothing else lately, we haven’t t face to face for quite a long ti."
"Did Doctor Zhang tell Xue Lang to co to Zone 017?"
"Doctor Zhang is not interested in Super Props."
"But he is interested in children."
"There are no suitable children in Zone 017."
Xu Huo paused slightly, then said, "Leaving Zone 017, where do you plan to go next?"
