Chapter 94: 117 and 13

'Father-son connection... special ability?'

After hearing the system's words in his mind and gazing at the rippling lake surface, Sui Bian's figure couldn't help but flicker.

What??

'System... explain to me the detailed contents of this reward...'

He propped the floor-to-ceiling window with his left hand, raised his right hand to shield his forehead, and his tone when questioning the system seemed a bit trembling.

【According to this system's analysis, the host provided a clone as material, and together with the G virus successfully engineered a G gland.】

The optimal recipients for implanting the G gland are adolescents aged 11 to 15 whose genes are relatively compatible with the G virus.

Thus this reward, based on the two points above, aims to enhance the host's physical qualities and the connection with these teenagers.

For each additional teenager implanted with the G gland, the host's healing speed, reflexes, strength, muscle and bone density, and resistance to blows, among other attributes, will increase slightly.

And the teenagers with the implanted G gland will, out of instinct, revere and be loyal to the host.

Moreover, this reverence and loyalty will become stronger as the adapters age.

"." Sui Bian was speechless.

He didn't say the reward was bad; on the contrary, it was quite good.

It can steadily boost his own strength and also ensure the future super soldiers' loyalty.

But why does it always sound so heavily reminiscent of Warhammer 40k?

His connection with the super soldiers is like the OriginalBody and Astate, or the Human Emperor and the OriginalBody?

Golden Throne...

Toilet...

!!

When a certain yellow seat flashed in his mind, Sui Bian closed his eyes, gave a slight shake of his head, and instantly brushed away the completely unrelated thoughts.

Not a single stray thought.

Reining in his slightly restless emotions, he readjusted his posture and looked toward the virtual window outside, Sui Bian said calmly, "White Queen."

As soon as the words fell.

The holographic projection installed in the office then displayed a virtual White Queen, dressed in a white dress, with long hair, whose appearance was almost identical to Hong Hou, appearing directly a short distance behind Sui Bian.

"Sir?" the White Queen asked indifferently.

"Organize the data of the ten adapters and send it to me; I want to see the specific conditions of these children, then notify Hank to personally retrieve those children back to the mother nest.

Also, remind Hank and the Alpha team not to forget erasing those children's paper files, and to perform memory wipes on the orphanage staff; they know the specific procedures."

Sui Bian turned his back to the White Queen and said.

"Alright, sir..." the White Queen paused briefly, then immediately replied:

"It's already done; the data has been uploaded to your personal computer. Captain Hank will soon lead the Alpha squad out."

"Hmm, thank you."

Sui Bian softly replied, turned away from the floor-to-ceiling window, and sat back down at the computer.

The White Queen's virtual image also moved to the desk, watching Sui Bian manipulate the mouse, and opened the data she had compiled.

He needs to have a general understanding of these children before Hank returns to the mother nest.

Most of these children are abandoned infants, or were discarded at a very young age; the relevant agencies could not locate any parental or relative contacts, so they were sent to live in an orphanage.

The records state that these children seem somewhat withdrawn, unwilling to interact with the orphanage teachers, but they get along fairly well with peers of the same age.

Even if the teachers are extremely kind and friendly, they cannot replace parental love, and some teachers are not sincere.

When browsing to the seventh child, Sui Bian couldn't help but wonder inwardly: 'John?'

The orphan named John is clearly only twelve, but the photo displayed in the data looks very mature, with a steady gaze, though his face is somewhat youthful.

This made him inevitably think of the famous 'Sergeant Major', Sparta 117, John.

'System, can you detect the attributes of this child named John?' Sui Bian asked inwardly.

【The subject has not reached peak development; no special attributes detected for now, but according to this system's analysis, the subject's luck appears far beyond that of ordinary people.】

'That's him.'

Although the system's answer missed the point, Sui Bian's first impression told him this John was ninety to ninety‑nine percent the same as the John dubbed 'the Devil' by the Star Alliance.

Because both have extremely good luck.

As Sui Bian continued to review, he couldn't help but remark that today's luck was indeed excellent.

The last orphan is named Robert, 13 years old.

The photo, unlike John's mature demeanor, shows Robert with slightly longer blond hair, a rather handsome face, and a faint smile.

Needless to ask, Sui Bian also knew the system would answer with the phrase 'not yet reached peak.'

Among the ten selected from a million orphans, two appear to be 'abnormal' beings.

Although the probability seems low, Sui Bian believes that gold will shine; because their genes are special, Umbrella could directly select them.

"White Queen." After finishing the review, Sui Bian turned his head toward the ever‑silent White Queen and said:

"Help me find out what the kids like, pick some... never mind, no need to choose one by one, that's too troublesome; just buy whatever you think is suitable and deliver it to the adapters' dormitories."

"Alright, sir." the White Queen promised.

February 10.

Surface.

17:20.

Looking down from the sky at the Raccoon City undergoing a second wave of development, old residents would only feel that their city has expanded considerably.

Skyscrapers stand tall, infrastructure is sound, public transportation is highly developed.

Raccoon City far surpasses contemporaneous American cities in development; even some mall advertising screens have already adopted holographic technology to attract visitors and customers.

The southern main road of Raccoon City.

A convoy consisting of six black SUVs and one black bus is traveling along this wide main road.

Inside the bus sandwiched between the SUVs…

"Wow… look! Look! The person in that ad seems about to walk out!"

"Good heavens, I've never been to a city since I was little, I'm completely satisfied… sob…"

"You still mock me for having no one to adopt me? I've moved to the big city! Hahaha!"

A group of similarly aged youths all leaned against the left and right windows, admiring the prosperity of Raccoon City.

Most of the youths were excited beyond measure, wondering what life after being adopted would be like.

They are the first batch of G virus compatibles selected by Umbrella.

John and Robert, these two destined to be extraordinary compatibles by name, likewise showed delighted expressions, curiously observing the scenery outside the vehicle.

No matter how extraordinary, they are ultimately just children in their early teens.

Soon, the convoy arrived at the city center and drove straight into the underground parking lot of a 200‑meter‑tall building.

Since Raccoon City has become Umbrella's center, a prominent landmark building is still needed; this building is the newly constructed Ambrella Headquarters.
