Chapter 42 Don't Take Risks With His Life

Strictly speaking, although the Special Task force is the most powerful of the special forces, not every combat soldier has accepted the x virus. Major General Gordon is from the armed forces division, he has not ever accepted the x-virus.

When the commandos go out into the field, Major General Gordon can sit at his desk and dictate. His position is unique.

"I didn't come here to relieve your boredom. I want to know what the hell you are playing at? Care to tell me when Xiao Yan synthesized the x-virus? Let me guess, you were trying to lure the infiltrate lurking into the Shire by using him as bait!"

Jane narrowed his eyes and the low pressure present in his gaze converged with Major General Gordon's. Xiao now understands why his days have been filled with disasters.

He now understands why as a mere class B student has a master level commando, such as Jane Wallace, to protect him. He was the bait and Jane the hunter.

"Don't be so angry, we have gained much from this exercise. For example we found that Cole is from the Surge organization. The ministry of communication , military and even the torture forces eventually faced blockers from the Surge. including Xiao Yan." The major General's eyes drifted to peer over Jane's shoulder and looked at Xiao Yan.

"I didn't expect you to come Xiao Yan. Do you have anything to report?"

Xiao expression is unreadable and he gives a stiff salute to the Major General. "Reporting Sir."

" Oh? What is it?"

"You are an out-and-out bastard!" Xiao Yan's expression is very serious and he speaks this quite firmly.

"Hahah", General Gordon laughed and patted Xiao Yan's shoulders. "Don't do this. The idea was Iverson's of the Central Academy of Sciences. He came up with it. Don't forget, Xiao Yan you have already been hunted by the Surge, you understand the value of killing. Also, the military has increased your security level."


He arched a brow, "What do you mean?"

"Your project is nearly complete. If you succeed, you will have synthesized a new virus.".

Xiao Yan swallowed. "I didn't expect you know to the details of my research project."

" As an elites combat troops, of course we will pay attention to a virus that makes our soldiers invisible to zombies."

Xiao Yan has found the sequence that the other researchers ignored; the gene chain in the comet virus. The code doesn't cause any harm to the human body. Using siRNA he blocked the harmful parts of the comet virus. Once one becomes a carrier, the isolated action of the virus cause the zombie hosts to mistakenly identify them as one of their own. With this, they will not attack. It is as Gordon said, once the soldiers are injected with it, the zombies will not see them as something to attack.

"Even if I have found the gene strand, I have to use a viral vector to deliver it to the human body. I have no finished products and have not even tested it. How can the Surge possibly.."

"They know because Casey's assistant is connected to influential members of the Surge. He sent all of your information to them. From their point of view they are a god's breath away from success," Major General Gordon's palm overshadowed Xiao Yan as he clapped his hand on his shoulder. The casual gesture felt like he had been hit by a large rock.

"Do you know why the Surge has been attacking research aircraft?"

"Why?" Xiao Yan had the distinct impression that he didn't want to hear this answer.

"

General Gordon looked over at Jane, and the lazy expression on his face sank into somber lines.

Jane spoke slowly, "The Surge has developed new biotechnology. They have been harvesting the brains of researchers and linking them to terminals. Forcing them to think until the brain is longer viable."
