"Stop, this is the Gene Union headquarters, please leave if you are not relevant."
Ding Huan had not crossed the gate of the first floor of Dongxun Genetic Center when he was stopped by two security guards.
"Oh, I'm looking for Master Shi. We're old acquaintances, and I've come here today to assist him with some matters," Ding Huan said with a smile.
Looking for Shi Changqian? The master of the Gene Union?
The two security guards were also stunned by Ding Huan's words. A friend of Master Shi was not someone they could easily offend.
How could a friend of the master come like this? Isn't there usually someone accompanying them, and then...
That's not right. A friend of the master wouldn't come here to find the master, right?
This is just the headquarters of the Gene Union, not the residence of Master Shi Changqian.
After Ding Huan said this sentence, he was ready to take action. He had no intention of having a calm conversation today.
The Gene Union is heartless and ruthless, and Ding Huan isn't one to play nice.
But before Ding Huan could make a move, one of the two security guards suddenly spat out white foam, followed by a blood-curdling scream and a twisted expression on his entire face...
The next moment, the security guard fell to the ground, and then blood began to pour from his seven orifices.
The other security guard saw this and immediately reached for his gun, thinking that Ding Huan was the one attacking.
In the security department of the Gene Union, firearms are authorized.
Ding Huan was also puzzled. He had been equipped with a gene toxic mist, but it wasn't even out yet.
What's going on?
No matter what the situation is, he wouldn't allow a security guard to point a gun at him.
"Bang!"
Still no response from Ding Huan, and the security guard with the gun fell to the ground with a bloodcurdling scream.
He too had seven orifices bleeding, his face contorted.
Ding Huan immediately understood, something was wrong with the human gene.
The gene drugs on Earth are far from perfect. If one takes gene drugs produced by small companies, such situations can indeed occur...
Ding Huan suddenly remembered Seiru Gene, wasn't that the source of the downfall of Baiyu Group?
He remembered that Seiru Gene suddenly went bankrupt months after it became popular, but he couldn't recall the exact date.
The sudden problems with the two security guards in front of him were likely the beginning of Seiru Gene's collapse.
The collapse of Seiru Gene is no small matter.
This gene is very strange. It's not only problematic, but it also has a very regular pattern.
Everyone who has fused Seiru Gene will die at very accurate intervals.
That means if you fuse this Seiru gene, you will die exactly in four months and three days; it won't be on the fourth month and four days, nor will it be on the fourth month and two days.
This can even be accurate to minutes.
This is not the case. Before the problem with this gene was revealed, there were no signs at all.
Looking at the two guards in front of him who died in a terrible way, Ding Huan had no sympathy and only felt disappointed.
Seiru gene drug is not something an ordinary person can afford.
In the Gene Union, even a small security guard has the opportunity to fuse this gene drug. That's why everyone is eager to join the Gene Union.
From the time of their death, these guards might have been fused at the same time.
...
At the same time, on the Puhai Martial Arts Square, Fang Chong, Li Wanyan, and Lv Ziyuan had already gotten off the stage.
Fang Chong and Li Wanyan weren't able to throw the Martial Arts Robot off the ring like Lv Ziyuan did, but they managed to hold on for ten minutes without being outmatched, indicating that their scores wouldn't be too low.
At this moment, a shout echoed through the crowd. A man suddenly let out a piercing scream, then blood poured from his seven orifices and he fell to the ground.
Even after falling to the ground, the man's face continued to twist uncontrollably.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" someone next to him helped him up and shouted loudly.
"It seems like a sudden illness. He might have died already," someone replied.
Almost immediately after the answer, there was another scream from the crowd, and more people began to die one by one.
These people who fell to the ground and died all showed the same symptoms.
The crowd immediately turned chaotic. Everyone's first reaction was that this was a contagious virus, a virus so terrifying that it could kill people in short order.
After all, such viruses that pose a great risk to people have appeared too frequently in recent years.
Puhai Martial Arts Square has millions of people, and once chaos breaks out, the consequences are unimaginable.
Someone among the ten universities of Blue Star noticed the situation. The president of the Zhenyu Academy, Nong Yizhen, jumped onto a platform where a competition had just ended and spoke out loudly,
"I am Nong Yizhen, the president of Zhenyu Academy. Everyone, please remain calm. This is not a virus, but a problem with a gene drug."
"Anyone who has not fused this gene drug will be fine."
Although Nong Yizhen didn't use a megaphone, his voice was clearly heard by everyone.
The chaotic square gradually calmed down, and Nong Yizhen's words as the president of the top ten universities of Blue Star were still very convincing.
After the crowd quieted down, some people who had been knocked to the ground got up. Their faces were filled with terror. If it hadn't been for Nong's words, they would have been dead.
People were still collapsing on the square, and everyone who died showed the same symptoms.
This scared people again, as it seemed too much like an infection with a certain type of virus.
"I understand, all the dead people have taken Seiru Gene." A sudden voice from the crowd echoed.
It should be that Nong Yizhen's words reminded him, making him realize. Or perhaps he knew one of the deceased, who had only fused the Seiru Gene drug.
The answer to this problem was suddenly given, and the voice was quickly followed by others who pointed out that the deceased had fused the Seiru Gene drug a few months ago.
The news that Seiru Gene drug had a problem was like a bomb dropped, causing fear and unease in those who had not yet experienced any problems with the drug.
As the crowd continuously shared information, a conclusion was finally reached: everyone who died today had a common feature—they had fused the Seiru Gene drug.
Those who fused the Seiru Gene were all from the first batch who did so on the same day.
People who had temporarily not experienced any problems after fusing the Seiru Gene heard this news and became increasingly anxious.
They understood that something was wrong with the Seiru Gene from Baiyu Group. Today they were fine simply because the time hadn't come yet.
...
Yanjing Tán Family.
Tan Zhengxin coughed uncontrollably, but his eyes remained glued to the TV screen.
The TV was broadcasting the fourth round of admission assessment arena competition of the ten universities of Blue Star.
Tan Zhengxin nodded in satisfaction as he watched three students from Yujing University perform effortlessly on the arena stage.
"Qianxing has not disappointed me. He has achieved such great results, cough...
"Father, your health is getting worse day by day. Why don't you take the Seiru Gene drugs you bought? The Geng Qianxing said there was a problem, and you believe him? He's just an ordinary teacher.
I also heard that the three candidates from Yujing University could achieve good results, and it has little to do with him.
A clear, feminine voice echoed, and it was Tan Yuan, Tan Zhengxin's daughter.
To be honest, she was very dissatisfied with Geng Qianxing. The Seiru Gene drugs were the result of her immense efforts and the connections she made to obtain them.
And now, when her father, Tan Zhengxin, was about to take them, that Geng Qianxing fellow called and said the gene drugs had a problem, advising her father not to take them.
This led to her father still coughing uncontrollably and his health getting worse by the day.
Tan Zhengxin coughed a few more times and then said, "Yuan, you may not fully understand Qianxing. This boy is a student I've brought up.
He has the highest talent. If one day any of my students can independently research a gene drug, it will definitely be him."
"This cannot prevent your recovery, I heard he has also pre-ordered the Seiru Gene drug. I really don't know what kind of intentions he has."
Tan Yuan was still uneasy.
"Yes, father, Little Yuan is right. So many people have taken Seiru Gene and there haven't been any problems. Seiru Gene is also hard to come by now."
A young man walked in and said with an emotional tone, "Other people want it and can't get it, but we have it and don't even need to use it."
"Huanbei, Yuanyuan. This child, Qianxing, has never told a single lie since he followed me."
Tan Zhengxin was getting angry.
"Father." Tan Yuan was a bit helpless. She and her brother don't know how many times they've tried to persuade the old dad, but he never listens to them.
Today's visit is also going to be fruitless.
The live broadcast on the TV suddenly transmitted a noise, and then the crowd in the square began to stir.
Then Nong Yizhen called on the crowd to calm down and not to panic...
Then the message about Seiru Gene being problematic appeared intermittently on the live broadcast.
Tan Zhengxin was startled, and he quickly picked up the phone to dial out.
In just three minutes, Tan Zhengxin put down the phone and looked at his son and daughter seriously and said,
"Just now, there was a report from Puhai, saying that there was a problem with the Seiru Gene drugs. The first batch of people who took Seiru Gene on the same day died. They bled from all seven orifices and their facial features were twisted..."
Hearing this, both Tan Yuan and Tan Huanbei were stunned.
They suddenly remembered what they had said earlier. If they persuaded their father to fuse the Seiru Gene drug, would it be the same for him after a while?
They dared not think any further. At this moment, they were just deeply grateful to Geng Qianxing from the bottom of their hearts.
If it weren't for Geng Qianxing, they would have lost their father and regretted it for the rest of their lives.
（That's it for today's update, good night to everyone!）
