Chapter 154: His Whole Female Master Disappeared

Chapter 154: Chapter 154: His Whole Female Master Disappeared

Shi Lingfeng felt even more heartbroken. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he maintained his composure. To prevent him from feeling burdened, his Female Master took all the responsibility upon herself. She truly loved him too much.

Shi Lingfeng took a deep breath and said softly, "Lanlan, don’t worry. I’ll go to you right now. As it happens, we have a materials recycling plant near the frontline Medical Hospital where you are stationed.

"I won’t let Xuanshuo keep prancing around! Don’t you worry."

After hanging up the communication with Gu Weilan, Shi Lingfeng turned around to contact Zhan Heng.

Meanwhile, after receiving comfort from several of her Beast Husbands, Gu Weilan soaked in a medicated bath and entered her space.

Gu Weilan’s high luck meant that discounted items frequently appeared in the System Mall. She scored a flash sale at a ninety percent discount, spending 98,000 points to buy a villa from the System Mall. She placed it right next to her Spiritual Spring Water and purchased several cleaning robots. Once that was done, she returned to her assigned room in the Medical Hospital and began studying on her Light Brain.

Mo Jincuan handed the intelligence he had gathered over to Vice Admiral Wu. Among it was information that Pomegranate Seed had quietly helped Mo Jincuan’s trusted aides uncover. After sharing this news with Old Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Rong, Vice Admiral Wu directly initiated a meeting with the clan leader of the Black Ape Beast Clan.

On the surface, Gu Weilan was completely unaware of these matters. She simply followed her routine, helping the frontline Beastmen deal with the parasitic insect clan on their bodies.

A week later, before Shi Lingfeng even arrived at the frontlines, Lu Xuyin was unexpectedly carried into the Medical Hospital.

Not only was this guy severely injured, but he was also infected by the parasitic insect clan.

"This male with seaweed-green hair is your Beast Husband, Lu Xuyin. The one from the Dragon Clan," Pomegranate Seed reminded her thoughtfully.

He possessed strong, handsome features, though a bone-deep gash currently marred his left brow bone. A horizontal scratch on his abdomen, left by a giant member of the Insect Clan, had received emergency treatment. There was also a gaping hole between his chest and shoulder blade. His usually rosy lips had turned completely pale.

"His squad was originally supposed to enter the Insect Clan’s encirclement. For some unknown reason, Lu Xuyin, serving as the vice-captain, suddenly got red in the eyes and ordered his teammates to leave immediately.

"While he stayed behind to cover their retreat, he actually used his Talent Skill against his own teammates in the dark, nearly killing them," Vice Admiral Wu said, looking puzzled at the newly admitted Lu Xuyin.

"Seeing that the situation was turning bad, his teammates directly blinded both him and the Insect Clan, knocked him unconscious, and brought him back.

"Upon examination, none of his teammates were infected by the parasitic insect clan. He was the only one parasitized.

"However, based on our analysis of their battle reports, their captain should have been the first one infected. 𝖋𝘳ℯ

"Logically speaking, if the Insect Clan had already parasitized his body, why would he let his comrades retreat first?"

Gu Weilan frowned and said, "His current condition is not far from death. He needs to be treated first before I can use my Devouring Life Talent Skill on him. Otherwise, if I’m not careful, he might lose his life while I’m devouring the parasites."

Vice Admiral Wu pursed his lips and nodded. "Alright, let’s have him treated first then."

Once Lu Xuyin was out of the Healing Pod, Gu Weilan unleashed her Devouring Life Talent Skill on him.

The parasitic insect clan inside Lu Xuyin’s body was still very young. Although there were quite a few of them, he likely hadn’t been parasitized for long.

After devouring the Insect Clan on Lu Xuyin’s body, Gu Weilan reported her findings to Vice Admiral Wu.

"I don’t think this batch of Beastmen was necessarily infected by the fake Colonel Bai Yanli and the fake Colonel Rong Hua Jin.

"Judging from the freshness of the parasitic insect clan on their bodies, the Insect Clan on the battlefield might naturally carry parasitic insect clan eggs themselves."

Vice Admiral Wu choked slightly.

He thought, "Wait... the female Gu Weilan’s Devouring Life Talent Skill can even discern the freshness of the parasitic insect clan? Why does my scalp feel a little numb?"

Gu Weilan remained silent for a moment before softly explaining, "Once my Devouring Talent Skill locks onto a specific vitality, it tracks its movement trajectory to see if it has spawned any eggs.

"Even if this spread from Beastman to Beastman, it shouldn’t have spread so widely and in such large numbers.

"Among the Beastmen coming back from the frontlines, we’ve already screened out over two hundred captains, vice-captains, and even vice-captains of ships, vice-commanders, and military strategists.

"And their movement trajectories don’t seem to intersect with those of the fake Bai Yanli and Rong Hua Jin.

"Or perhaps my clearance is too low, and I just don’t know if Beastmen who had contact with Bai Yanli and Rong Hua Jin contracted the parasitic insect clan and passed it on to these officers?

"Regardless, I hope you can use your authority, Vice Admiral Wu, to request a thorough screening."

Vice Admiral Wu nodded. In truth, they had already guessed the possibility Gu Weilan just mentioned. He patted her shoulder and said, "Little female, you’ve done exceptionally well! I truly thank you!"

Gu Weilan shook her head. If she didn’t have to reserve a portion of her energy every day to stabilize her Space Beast Rank, she could be curing eight to ten Beastmen a day! But as it stood, she could only devour the parasitic insect clan from five or six Beastmen daily.

Two other Beastmen with devouring-type Talent Skills had also been transferred to the frontlines. However, their skills seemed to cause considerable damage to a Beastman’s Spiritual Sea. Therefore, any Beastman with a bit of pull tried to get themselves assigned to Gu Weilan’s queue.

After thinking about it, Gu Weilan decided to have Pomegranate Seed loosen her Beast Rank restriction by another level. Even though she was currently at the Eighth Rank and using Ninth Rank Beast Rank Energy, the condensation level of her Beast Rank Energy wasn’t as solid as a true Ninth Rank.

Thus, during a lunch break, as Gu Weilan gripped a Star Core and absorbed it, her Beast Rank advanced to the Ninth Rank in front of everyone’s eyes.

Many Beastmen in the Medical Hospital couldn’t help but click their tongues in amazement. They showered Gu Weilan with praise, commending her for being hardworking, ambitious, gentle, and kind.

Gu Weilan checked her Beast Rank status:

Light Element Ninth Rank: 89,213 / 120,000

Wood Nine Rank: 73,409 / 120,000

Ice Element Ninth Rank: 30,039 / 120,000

Space Element ninth Rank: 12,230 / 120,000

The sunlight allowed her to automatically accumulate absorbed energy every 100 seconds. This actually saved her quite a few Star Cores.

Gu Weilan then turned around and went to soak in her final High Level Bloodline Purification Bath.

After enduring the agony of her bones feeling as though they were breaking inch by inch, she involuntarily transformed into a golden-white treasure-hunting mouse with an atavistic bloodline.

"Congratulations, Host! You have finished all of your High Level Bloodline Purification Baths. Moving forward, the majority of the cubs you and your Beast Husbands produce will have atavistic bloodlines!" Pomegranate Seed cheered happily, tossing imaginary flowers.

Gu Weilan weakly curled the corners of her lips into a faint smile.

Before she even had time to shift back into her Beastman form, someone swiped an ID card and entered her room.

Smelling the strong scent of medicine and foul blood, Shi Lingfeng quickly strode into the bathroom.

But when he looked...

He wondered, "Who is this? Where is my full-grown Female Master? Who is this little golden-white mouse? Don’t tell me this is a new boy toy my Female Master found! But didn’t I hear that the male Lu Xuyin is from the Dragon Clan?"
