Chapter 54: All Things to Learn from BoKen

"Listening to you say that… I can appreciate their beauty even more, ah~! What perfect creatures."

Sui Bian had just finished introducing the Xenomorph species from memory, and BoKen, standing beside him, gazed at the Xenomorph Queen with eyes that seemed to shine.

Sui Bian, BoKen, Rebecca, and more than ten researchers in white lab coats were standing inside an observation room on the third level of the Hive.

In front of everyone was a massive floor‑to‑ceiling window.

On the other side of the glass was the isolation lab where the Xenomorph Queen's corpse was placed.

The corpse lay on an acid‑resistant experimental platform, while four technicians in white sealed hazmat suits carefully extracted samples from it.

Hearing that, Rebecca looked at BoKen speechlessly.

But she could say nothing; after all, BoKen was her superior.

Sui Bian turned to BoKen and said, "Doctor BoKen, according to Hong Hou's analysis, weaponizing the Xenomorphs would be extremely dangerous, but isn't doing nothing a waste of their potential?"

When Sui Bian said it was Hong Hou's analysis, he was really shifting the blame onto Hong Hou.

Because whether it's movies or games about Xenomorphs, any human faction that tries to weaponize them ends badly.

Moreover, Xenomorphs are so autonomous that they cannot be controlled at all.

When BoKen heard Sui Bian's question, he snapped out of his previous trance, thought for a moment, and said:

"It's indeed a hassle; the first step to weaponization is to seize control of the apex queen of their social system.

But based on the data we have, the Xenomorph race harbors too many secrets, and my first impression is that they are simply not a species that humans can dominate.

However, their ability to optimize DNA gave me an idea: if we use them to enhance the host of the G virus, we might cultivate a milder G… hmm…

Right, that's a good line of thought… Quick! I need to move faster!"

At that point BoKen slipped back into a self‑absorbed state, and while speaking, he hurried out of the observation room.

Watching BoKen's retreating back, Sui Bian realized the genius had just been struck by inspiration, so he refrained from disturbing him.

Now there's no need to have the USS monitor BoKen the whole time.

BoKen isn't a fool; he knows Sui Bian won't steal the research results for himself, and Sui Bian periodically brings novel things, which makes BoKen enjoy the research even more.

As for Wesker's death…

After the G virus incident, Sui Bian told BoKen about it.

Although BoKen was Wesker's friend, that also meant BoKen understood Wesker's ambitions extremely well.

If Wesker were alive, he would remain a serious liability to the company.

Death might be Wesker's best fate.

Moreover, a dead Wesker is more valuable than a living one.

His corpse can be used for research, making a great contribution to the company's refinement of the T and G viruses.

Seeing BoKen completely leave the observation room, Sui Bian turned to the researchers, raised his voice and said, "Everyone, the company has also recovered blood and tissue samples from the Iron Blood Clan.

Now I need you to assist Doctor BoKen in carrying out the Super Soldier Project while also cloning Xenomorph and Iron Blood specimens so the company can conduct research and experiments.

The coming period will be hectic, but the company won't let your efforts go unrewarded, so salaries will be doubled for the next month.

If we successfully clone Xenomorph and Iron Blood specimens, the company will also grant bonuses; thank you all."

"Yes, sir!"

"Don't worry, sir."

And so on, a series of responses ending with "sir."

Sui Bian can also paint pictures, but if you paint too many, you'll eventually lose people's trust.

Back then, Si Bin Sai and the rest of the board clung to money, which was one reason for the emergence of turncoats and rascals within the company.

Sui Bian just needs enough money to spend.

Enjoying oneself at the cost of losing people's hearts is a choice Sui Bian would never make.

Moreover, Umbrella's money…

…is damn plenty, impossible to spend all.

After the group of researchers gave Sui Bian their grateful replies, they each prepared to leave the observation room and dive into their busy work.

"Chambos, wait a moment, I have something to ask." Sui Bian left Rebecca behind alone.

"Yes." Rebecca nodded, then stayed in the observation room to wait.

When all the researchers had left, Sui Bian walked slowly up to Rebecca and asked, "Chambos, how's the progress on the Super Soldier Project and serum extraction?"

"Well…" Rebecca paused slightly and replied, "It's okay, especially the serum extraction; Doctor BoKen seems to have a distinct advantage in that area."

"Of course, sometimes Doctor BoKen also needs my advice; I think by early or mid‑next year we should be able to finish serum extraction."

"It's just the Super Soldier Project…"

At this point Rebecca shook her head lightly in helpless resignation, indicating the Super Soldier Project was progressing poorly.

That's unavoidable; the G virus is simply hard to control.

The Hive has cloned six copies of Sui Bian, each of which was injected with the G virus in turn.

However, each clone reacted differently: some lost all signs of life instantly, some mutated like in a game, and others collapsed into grotesque tumor‑like forms.

One could say not even 1% of progress was achieved.

But it wasn't a total loss; at least the two of us gained a preliminary understanding of the G virus's properties.

"Hmm, I could guess that; otherwise, with BoKen's personality he would have already reported it to claim credit." Sui Bian also gave a slight nod.

He continued, "Chambos, if I made you the head of the Reborn Warrior Project, do you think you could handle it?"

On September 1, the day the second‑generation Reborn Warrior technology was obtained, Sui Bian had Hong Hou send it to Rebecca and BoKen for them to review first.

"This…" Rebecca didn't answer immediately, but with a puzzled expression asked, "Sir, I'd like to know where you got the formulas for those reagents, and the detailed steps of the Reborn Warrior Project?"

"Hehe." Sui Bian chuckled lightly, "You should learn everything from your superior, Doctor BoKen; he's a very smart person."

BoKen still hasn't asked Sui Bian about the origin of the serum, because BoKen knows that even if he asked, he'd never get an answer.

"Alright…" Rebecca replied thoughtfully, "I understand, sir. I think I can serve as the person in charge of the Rebirth Warrior Project."

"Hmm, very well, then I'll trouble you, Chambos."
