Chapter 141: Interesting Things?

The Plague Doctor has made a considerable contribution to Umbrella.

Among them, the G gland can be fully perfected, and it is inseparable from the Plague Doctor.

When the OriginalBodies first completed the G gland implantation surgery, the Plague Doctor performed several postoperative examinations on them.

Moreover, the Plague Doctor is also a special instructor for the OriginalBodies, teaching some… fringe knowledge so that they have a greater understanding of anomalous phenomena.

Thus the OriginalBodies are not unfamiliar with the Plague Doctor, they are even quite familiar, and they constantly hear the Plague Doctor muttering about the existence of the "plague".

Now the Plague Doctor says that the Blood Demon is a type of "plague", which confuses the OriginalBodies.

"Could it be that the plague has already fully arrived? That's far earlier than I expected! Sir! The company must respond! Must!"

The Plague Doctor says this with heightened emotion.

"Stay calm, Doctor, stay calm," Sui Bian tells the Plague Doctor to keep his composure, then says:

"Based on the intelligence the company possesses, the so‑called plague has not yet fully arrived. I believe the file Bai Hou compiled for you should have marked the two races that have abandoned human identity, a demon they actively summoned for their own selfish desires."

"Abandoned human identity?" the now‑calmer Plague Doctor is momentarily stunned, and after straining to recall the file details, realizes that Sui Bian is referring to vampires and werewolves.

He then says in a deep voice, "Mr. Sui, please provide me with… no, a large amount of experimental material; I wish to study these beings that have abandoned human identity in detail."

"No problem," Sui Bian replies, having intended to do just that.

"Since the plague hasn't fully arrived, I still have time to finish the vaccine, hmm… I will definitely complete it," the Plague Doctor says somewhat mystically.

Sui Bian does not know what kind of vaccine could help humanity resist incursions from other dimensions, but he also hopes the Plague Doctor can finish the vaccine research.

In that case, Umbrella will have more options.

"Doctor," Sui Bian asks, "the demon's name seems to be Ge Ruifen; are you familiar with it, or perhaps… do you have detailed information about it?"

The helmet camera of the Thunder God Hammer clearly captures Blood Demon Ge Ruifen showing terror and astonishment when it sees the Spear of Fear in John's hand.

This indicates that the Blood Demon had contact with War God Ares at least ten thousand years ago.

Moreover, that Blood Demon must have been beaten by Ares, otherwise it wouldn't be wary of the Spear of Fear.

"Of course I'm familiar—yes… ah… look at my memory, I just read it and forgot, hold on a moment."

The Plague Doctor says this while flipping through the leather notebook in his hand until he reaches the last few pages, then continues:

"Hmm… when I was traveling near the Mediterranean Sea, I once heard locals tell the story of War God Ares expelling the demon Ge Ruifen.

According to my understanding of the tale, Ge Ruifen was probably the earliest to focus on the human plague, stepping into the real world ten thousand years ago to spread the plague wildly.

But its plan failed, and Ares drove it back into the space where the plague gathers.

(flips a few more pages of notes)

In the subsequent ten thousand years, no records of it appeared worldwide, which greatly reduced the plague's spread…"

At this point, the Plague Doctor closes the notebook, looks at Sui Bian and says, "I didn't expect it never gave up personally venturing into the real world to spread the plague; unfortunately, its plan failed once again."

Ares in this world is truly formidable.

Having heard the Plague Doctor's words, Sui Bian can't help but give that assessment.

In fact, after discovering Lilith and Ares, he had Bai Hou edit a file and send it to the Plague Doctor, hoping to ask whether this odd doctor knows about the events that occurred at the Gobekli Ruins.

However, the Plague Doctor's answer is…

"Mr. Sui, do you think I'm an encyclopedia? I don't know, I don't know either."

The Plague Doctor says he also doesn't understand.

Thus, the company, by studying the six preserved white giants, reaches a conjectural conclusion: Lilith attempted to create an entirely new humanoid species.

And Ares, having detected Lilith's actions, led his divine servant army to exterminate Lilith and the white giant race she created.

In the end, both sides suffered mutual destruction.

The white giants that clashed with Leon, Ai Da, and HellParatroopers are presumed to have been born from a blood lake formed by Lilith's blood.

But this is speculation.

If there are no recorded documents or solid evidence, events that occurred ten thousand years ago will eventually become a forgotten past for humanity.

"Then…"

At this moment Sui Bian asks again, "Demons that focus on humanity, or rather plagues that focus on humanity, are only a minority, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Sui," the Plague Doctor does not deny, and adds:

"From what I understand, they don't seem unified; at least that's the case now, and time remains our ally for the moment."

"Alright, I understand."

Having received the Plague Doctor's answer, he can be certain that humanity will be able to maintain its current peace in the short term.

What he still needs to do is to methodically advance Umbrella's technological level, especially in avoiding technologies related to interdimensional travel.

And once the OriginalBodies reach adulthood, cultivate super‑warriors like Astate, giving humanity the capital to counter various anomalies, evil gods, and the bizarre, even…

the capital for offense.

Sui Bian believes that humans under his and Umbrella's protection will inevitably leave this tiny Earth, and humanity should not be a subjugated species.

He ends his somewhat far‑flung thoughts.

Sui Bian thanks the Plague Doctor, "Thank you for the information, Doctor. As a token of gratitude, I will promptly send the new experimental material to the Mother Nest."

"Mr. Sui, you're too polite, but… I really have no reason to refuse this gift. Very well, if there's nothing else, I will continue my experiment."

The Plague Doctor says this while closing the leather notebook, leaving the holographic screen and diving back into vaccine research.

Bai Hou, seeing Sui Bian and the Plague Doctor finish their conversation, dissolves the holographic screen and proactively says:

"Sir, the Red Queen and I will first focus on the capture operations against vampires and werewolves."

"Okay."

Having received Sui Bian's permission, the Red and White Queens also dissolve their virtual forms.

With no others present, Robert gathers his brothers before Sui Bian, his expression solemn, and says:

"Father, the plague seems to be humanity's greatest threat; we should…"

"Just prepare ahead of time; don't always put on a gloomy face," Sui Bian interrupted Robert, then with a relaxed expression smiled at his many sons and said:

"You all performed very well in this mission, and it's just the right moment to have reached the European side, so first get a good rest; in a few days I'll take you to see something interesting."

"Something interesting?"

The OriginalBodies' curiosity was piqued, and they all eagerly replied, "Yes, father."
