Chapter 1778: Chapter 561: Technical Exchange (6k)_3
Watching the three of them looking a bit worried, Bai Yi complained inwardly.
However, the three leaders were not in the mood to care about what Bai Yi was thinking. After pondering for a moment, they either shook their heads or sighed.
"But even knowing these Insect Swarm characteristics, judging by the current data, it’s still hard to deal with."
"Fan Mao, as a professional, do you have any suggestions?"
With one word from you and another from me, the three immediately refocused the topic on Bai Yi.
"There is a way.
These Insect Clan evolutions have a core Mother Insect, which is their most fatal flaw.
As long as the core Mother Insect is taken out, the evolutionary process can be interrupted.
Of course, if it’s difficult to precisely eliminate it with fleet firepower, we can make use of the Insect Clan themselves.
Those insects need to return to the Mother Insect after obtaining enhancements or being injured.
Simply leave some genetic contamination on these returning insects, and they will lead us to the hidden Mother Insect, delivering the contamination to it."
Bai Yi made up a seemingly logical answer on the spot.
With her understanding of biology, this method was indeed feasible.
Although she would never use such a cumbersome approach, it was sufficient to fool the three civilization leaders.
The three civilization leaders nodded thoughtfully.
"This is indeed a strategy, starting directly with those ordinary insects...
They have always been considered cannon fodder hindering our firepower; indeed, I never thought of starting with them."
The President suddenly realized, these insects were like annoying mosquitoes in everyday life—so common, you just think of eliminating them directly.
Yet never thought of starting with the mosquitoes themselves, to eliminate them more efficiently.
"Later, I’ll have our research institute look into it."
After a pause, the President smiled slightly and asked:
"Fan Mao, would you be interested in accepting another commission?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yi was taken aback and vaguely guessed something, tentatively asking:
"What commission?"
"Do you mind conducting research specifically for the Starry Sky to create a weapon against these insect swarms?
You know, the Starry Sky’s current biological research is not deep; in this field, you are the most professional.
So I hope to commission you, Fan Mao, to develop a biological weapon to combat the Insect Swarm.
Ideally, it can directly target and annihilate the Insect Swarm or disrupt their evolution, either would be acceptable.
In terms of research, we could also conduct joint development, providing all necessary resources; what do you think?"
After the President finished explaining, Bai Yi immediately put on a thoughtful expression but internally wanted to complain with nowhere to vent.
What is this?
After investigating myself, now I have to develop a weapon against myself?
However, after venting inwardly, Bai Yi still smiled calmly.
To her, this was like taking on a task to investigate herself, an excellent piece of good news.
Moreover, what the President just mentioned about joint development...
Bai Yi’s eyes twinkled as she thought of her previous words to the researcher, pondering:
"I have no problem with this.
However, what I can create will only be a weapon best suited to myself.
If you want it to suit your civilization’s weapons, you’ll need to incorporate your own technology."
"No problem! We, the Federation, can send a specialized group of researchers to cooperate with our technology in the research!
They will provide all the Federation’s technical support!"
The President, fearing Fan Mao might back out, immediately said.
"My Empire will also participate! We will send top-tier Magic research teams to collaborate with you, Fan Mao, and exchange technology!"
"My Saien too..."
The remaining two, not wanting to fall behind, also promised consecutively.
Among the Three Great Civilizations, as long as one possesses it, the others cannot be without it.
The Insect Swarm is not an enemy of just one nation.
If they left things unattended, indeed, the Radiant Civilization would have to step up to deal with the Insect Swarm, possibly incurring significant losses in the short term.
But without weapons against the Insect Swarm, who’s to say the Radiant Civilization wouldn’t view them as a weapon and turn them against those without adequate measures?
Even if this method of dealing with the Insect Swarm can only be used once, they’d rather it sit unused than be unavailable when truly needed, causing all sorts of anxieties.
After each stating their conditions, they waited silently for a response.
"Rest assured, as long as the technology is in place.
I will first research the basic principles of anti-insect weapons, then conduct joint research with your technical personnel.
Your people can observe my research, but likewise, I will also watch your researchers to ensure a smooth final integration of technology."
Bai Yi feigned consideration for a few seconds before smiling again and stating her conditions.
The three of them pondered for two seconds, exchanged glances, and then nodded in agreement with her conditions.
"Then let’s place the research facility at the front line."
"The front line? That’s not appropriate..."
The Emperor instinctively wanted to object but immediately stopped himself.
"To study weapons, we still need test subjects, right?
Or do you wish to publicly capture a bunch of insects and bring them back to the Starry Sky for testing?"
Bai Yi, arms crossed and head slightly raised, playfully retorted.
"Uh... let’s not do that, let’s not do that..."
The Emperor said stiffly.
They just worried about the Church bringing the battlefield’s Insect Swarm to the Starry Sky, so how could they possibly bring them to the Starry Sky themselves?
If any accident occurred during transit and the swarm leaked out, they’d have invited disaster into their midst.
