“First, continue to advance Zerg gene research, and improve the ‘Zerg Species Dictionary.'”

“Second, a large-scale recruitment drive, with the Iron Wall to be completed in full within two years.”

“Third, create a high-tech army, including nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleets, the next generation of air corps, ground armored corps, and robotic corps.”

“Fourth, construct an undersea tunnel from Rong City to Yizhou, bringing the sea area near Yizhou under management.”

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

“Fifth, establish a united human defense organization to collect Zerg information from around the world.”

…

These were the five main categories, with numerous subcategories, amounting to thousands in total.

Each person would continue to divide the work, Qin Peng said, “He Xingzhou, your technology and vision in the battle to defend Shanghai spared us from the Zerg invasion.”

“Therefore, we have submitted an application to the higher-ups to officially make you the Xuanwu Executive Officer, and the approval should come down soon.”

He Xingzhou did not refuse, realizing that at this critical moment, being coy would only waste time.

He then said, “Thank you all, I hope we can continue to implement the Xuanwu Plan smoothly!”

“You have the ability!” Everyone now greatly valued He Xingzhou’s opinions, knowing full well that without him, the Zerg might have already been rampaging inland by now!

“One more thing,” Cui Weimin said, “In five days, we will hold a memorial service for the fallen heroes. If there are no urgent matters, everyone should attend.”

“Agreed!” Everyone unanimously concurred. Even though their schedules were tight, they would take the time to honor those who sacrificed in the battle to defend Shanghai.

…

He Xingzhou had a lot on his plate, and post-war, he first called his family and then communicated with various departments.

The war had yielded significant amounts of Zerg biological material, and they had even captured some high-level Zerg alive, such as those red, green, and black-armored ones. They had caught living samples, which were sent to the research institute for study.

He Xingzhou’s personal technology research list was piled high with items, impossible to rank.

“Next, it should be time to research nuclear energy technology,” He Xingzhou reckoned. Whether it was the armor of the nuclear battery, robots, or nuclear-powered submarines and aircraft carriers, breakthroughs in nuclear technology were essential.

He opened the technology tree of the Quantum Light Computer and found the corresponding technologies.

“Basic nuclear fission energy technology, unlocking requires 1 million energy units.”

“Nuclear radiation isolation layer technology, unlocking requires 500,000 energy units.”

“Nuclear power storage technology, unlocking requires 1 million energy units.”

“Nuclear battery technology, unlocking requires 800,000 energy units.”

“Nuclear fission power propulsion technology, unlocking requires 3 million energy units.”

…

The energy units required for nuclear technology were significantly higher than before, and currently, only nuclear fission technology could be unlocked. Controllable nuclear fusion required at least ten million energy units to unlock, as it involved too many technologies and could not yet be directly manufactured.

He Xingzhou first imported existing nuclear fission knowledge and technology, saving over a million energy units.

Then, he unlocked nuclear radiation isolation layer, nuclear power storage, and nuclear battery technologies. He planned to first manufacture nuclear batteries.

Nuclear batteries could be used on a large scale in engineering machinery and military equipment, significantly increasing the speed of construction and military strength in the short term.

He Xingzhou contacted Yang Bai, asking him to start recruiting and forming a nuclear battery research team.

…

Tower Research Institute, underground biochemical research laboratory.

A new piece of news was troubling the research team.

“After the successful defense of Shanghai, many soldiers and logistics personnel manifested symptoms of mental disorder,” Wu Rui reported from the stage.

“Specifically, they experienced auditory and visual hallucinations. Some even felt like they were Zerg themselves!”

“In severe cases, there were instances of madness, with over a hundred such cases surfacing recently, and there was even a tendency toward spreading, seriously affecting social stability and the health of soldiers. Medical experts believe it might be a type of post-war traumatic stress disorder.”

“We can’t reach such a simple conclusion,” Pan Yan, gasping for breath, said from the audience, “It must be related to the Zerg, there must be other reasons. Perhaps the brain has been stimulated by some kind of bioelectric wave.”

“In this regard, we have also conducted tests, but our understanding of the human brain and nerves is too limited, and we have found no useful clues.”

*Humanity’s understanding of the brain and nervous system was indeed very shallow. And psychological trauma differs from physical trauma, being difficult to detect or pinpoint for specific diseases and treatment methods.*

They discussed for quite a while, yet struggled to reach a conclusive answer.

Pan Yan took a few breaths of oxygen before saying, “In any case, we must find the cause. If the Zerg possess means to affect the human brain, we will suffer heavy blows in the next war!”

“Everyone, go conduct your research, meeting adjourned.”

The group dispersed, and Pan Yan signaled to Jiang Chan.

Since the last time she transferred Jiang Chan to the bioelectric wave research team, this was her first instruction to Jiang Chan.

“Teacher!” Jiang Chan hurried over.

Pan Yan, lying in a wheelchair and breathing weakly, said, “Take me to see Experiment No. 9.”

“Okay.” Jiang Chan pushed her towards the area where Experiment No. 9 was conducted.

Experiment No. 9 was isolated in an incubation chamber, sleeping most of the time.

Pan Yan took a few more inhales from an oxygen mask before softly saying, “I’ll go in alone; you wait outside.”

“Alright.” Jiang Chan waited quietly outside.

Pan Yan’s wheelchair was a specially designed intelligent device capable of unmanned operation.

After she entered the research area, Jiang Chan waited patiently. During these days, she had continuously studied the information on bioelectric brainwaves that Pan Yan pointed out to her and had already achieved some results.

But until now, she had not had the opportunity to verify her ideas.

*Could the hallucinations post-war also be related to brainwaves?* Jiang Chan leaned against the railing, propping her chin with one hand, pondering silently.

A few minutes later, she was awakened by alarm sirens.

“Warning, Academician Pan Yan has fallen into a coma, please proceed with immediate rescue!” The alarm was from the research institute’s intelligent system, the Sentinel.

“Teacher!” Pan Yan rushed into the research area, finding Pan Yan indeed unconscious in her wheelchair.

Opposite her sat an innocent-looking white dolphin.

“I’ll deal with you later!” Jiang Chan said softly.

By this time, everyone had rushed over.

“How is the teacher?”

“Immediate rescue!” They hurriedly took Pan Yan for emergency treatment.

He Xingzhou was about to return to the Tower Research Institute when he heard about Pan Yan’s collapse.

Upon arriving at the research institute’s ward, Pan Yan was resting. She appeared gaunt, merely skin and bones, with sunken eyes that looked like a candle about to burn out.

He Xingzhou left the ward and saw Jiang Chan standing outside, her eyes red. He softly asked, “How is Academician Pan doing?”

Jiang Chan choked out, “Teacher, she’s not going to make it. The doctors said she probably won’t make it through the hour.”

“What?” He Xingzhou was shocked, asking, “How did this happen?”

“I…I have a suspicion.” Jiang Chan whispered, just as the nurse informed them, “Academician Pan has woken up.”

“We’ll talk later.” He Xingzhou patted her shoulder in comfort.

He entered the ward; although Pan Yan had woken up, she still looked exhausted, as if even opening her eyes required her to summon all her strength.

“Mom!” Pan Yan’s son, Lv Fang, had arrived, and Pan Yan glanced at him, with a hint of longing in her eyes.

“Help…help me up.” She said softly.

The nurse hurriedly and carefully helped her up, and she gasped, “I don’t have much time left.”

Everyone listened silently, not daring to disturb her speaking tempo.

“Sentinel, transfer my data to Jiang Chan.” Pan Yan called out, and a holographic screen lit up in front of her.

Sentinel’s voice prompt indicated, “Permission granted, information transmission completed.”

Hearing this, Pan Yan showed a slight expression of relief.

Her son wanted to say a few words, but Pan Yan looked at Jiang Chan and said, “I leave it to you.”

“I know! Teacher!” Jiang Chan couldn’t hold back her tears.

She then turned to He Xingzhou, smiling, “The Xuanwu…plan must con…continue.”

“I am very…content. You were right. Though I may face…death nine times over, I would…not regret my choices.”

As she uttered the last word, her whole being seemed to lose its energy; her eyes lost focus, her eyelids drooped, and her body completely gave out.

The electrocardiogram monitor beside her displayed a straight line with no fluctuations!
