    Chapter 304

    During this period, Su Hao had no idea how far the parasitic spread of the Genesis Monarch had progressed.

    Who became infected depended entirely on circumstance.

    He certainly didn't have the time to monitor Hua Yao every day to see who she was interacting with.


    ---

    Su Hao retrieved the latest parasitism records of the Genesis Monarch Black Giant Wasp from Marble Space.

    The moment he saw the results...

    He froze.

    It wasn't that there were too few.

    It was that there were far too many.

    Nearly two hundred consciousness records were lined up inside Marble Space, resembling countless tiny dark rooms.

    Checking each one individually was impossible.

    So Su Hao simply instructed Little Light to generate a summary.


    ---

    "Mr. Su Hao."

    "The following report has been prepared."


    ---

    "Currently, Genesis Monarch No. 2 has successfully parasitized 235 targets."

    "Among them, 189 have already had their consciousness recorded."


    ---

    "Preliminary analysis indicates that 172 are confirmed members of the Resistance Association."

    "The remaining 17 show no confirmed affiliation."

    "These seventeen were infected through sexual transmission from the primary host, Hua Yao."

    "Would you like to remove them from the database?"


    ---

    "Primary transmission source: Parasite No. 3, Luo Zong."

    "Thirty-three days ago, Parasite No. 3 attended a large gathering on the Secondary Star."

    "The complete meeting record is available for review."


    ---

    "Distribution of the 172 confirmed Resistance members is as follows..."


    ---

    "Among them..."

    "98 are currently located in Kitano Shu."

    "Their exact locations have already been marked."


    ---

    "Organizational ranks are as follows."

    "Executive Level: 3."

    "Manager Level: 15."

    "Director Level: 80."

    "Regional Officer Level: 74."

    "The complete personnel list is available at any time."


    ---

    "..."


    ---

    After finishing the report...

    Su Hao felt both impressed and speechless.

    The parasitic instructions he had given the Genesis Monarch only functioned on the Secondary Star.

    In other words...

    Almost everyone Hua Yao interacted with there belonged to the Resistance Association.

    There was virtually no chance of infecting innocent people.

    What truly surprised him...

    Was Hua Yao herself.

    In barely over a month...

    She had already transmitted the parasite to at least seventeen unrelated people.

    Perhaps even more.


    ---

    "This woman..."

    "Is incredible."


    ---

    The other thing that left Su Hao speechless...

    Was Little Light's terrible initiative.

    A meeting involving numerous senior Resistance members...

    Discussing plans to eliminate Su Hao himself...

    Yet Little Light hadn't even considered notifying him.


    ---

    Su Hao sighed helplessly.

    He couldn't blame Little Light.

    The limitation lay with himself.

    Little Light simply followed instructions.

    True artificial intelligence remained far beyond his current capabilities.


    ---

    He then examined the locations of the ninety-eight Resistance members in Kitano Shu.

    More than seventy of them...

    Were concentrated inside one place.

    Paradise Town.


    ---

    A faint smile appeared on Su Hao's face.

    "So..."

    "The Resistance Association's headquarters on the Main Star is probably located in Paradise Town."


    ---

    He had to admit...

    The Resistance truly knew how to hide.

    Who would ever suspect...

    That the headquarters of the world's most notorious criminal organization...

    Would be hidden inside the dream destination of countless summoners?

    Perhaps...

    Even the famous Summoner's Achievement Road had been created by the Resistance themselves.

    Maybe it existed to recruit the world's greatest summoners.

    Or perhaps...

    It served some even greater purpose.

    Su Hao didn't care.


    ---

    "What interests me..."

    "Is that Paradise Town truly lives up to its name."

    "It really is paradise..."

    "For the Resistance."


    ---

    Paradise Town was still far away.

    Until Su Hao completed his Spatial Lock Rune...

    He had no intention of attacking it.

    If he couldn't eliminate every single Resistance member in one operation...

    Future trouble would be inevitable.


    ---

    Instead...

    He focused on four nearby Resistance members operating around Huaiyuan Town.


    ---

    "Perfect."

    "Two for me."

    "Two for Yashan."


    ---

    The following day...

    Su Hao and Yashan headed toward Linhua Town.

    Located beside the sea...

    Linhua Town was larger and far more prosperous than Huaiyuan Town.

    It also contained two Resistance members.


    ---

    Half an hour later...

    They arrived.


    ---

    One Resistance member was still sleeping soundly beneath warm blankets...

    Holding his beloved woman tightly in his arms.

    Just then...

    The embodiment of justice...

    Yashan...

    Descended from the sky.


    ---

    One strike.

    Knocked unconscious.

    Carried away.

    The man never even opened his eyes before being taken away completely naked.


    ---

    Still asleep...

    The woman rolled over and murmured,

    "Dear..."

    "It's cold..."

    "Hold me..."


    ---

    Yashan had already reached the doorway.

    He suddenly realized something.

    The man was completely naked.

    At this temperature...

    He might freeze to death before reaching the laboratory.


    ---

    So...

    Yashan thoughtfully walked back inside.

    Pulled the blanket off the sleeping woman...

    Wrapped it around the unconscious Resistance member...

    Hoisted him over one shoulder...

    And left.


    ---

    The woman immediately began shivering.

    Slowly opening her eyes...

    She looked around blankly.

    "...?"


    ---

    Su Hao's target was even easier.

    The man wore glasses.

    He sat quietly reading a novel.

    Looking refined and scholarly.


    ---

    Su Hao calmly walked over.

    Took the book from his hands.

    Adjusted the man's glasses.

    The scholar looked up in confusion.

    Wondering who dared interrupt his reading.


    ---

    Bang!


    ---

    One precise strike landed on the back of his neck.

    His eyes rolled upward.

    He collapsed instantly.


    ---

    Su Hao grabbed him by the collar...

    And dragged him outside.


    ---

    Afterward...

    Su Hao and Yashan each visited another nearby town.

    Capturing the third target...

    Then the fourth.


    ---

    Everything proceeded unbelievably smoothly.


    ---

    Less than three hours later...

    The four Resistance members had all been brought back to the laboratory.


    ---

    Su Hao selected two of them.

    Then said,

    "These two are mine first."

    "If they survive..."

    "You can use them for your recordings afterward."


    ---

    Yashan grinned.

    "Understood, Boss Wei."

    "I just hope they don't die too quickly."


    ---

    Su Hao continued,

    "Remember..."

    "All four are Resistance members."

    "They can teleport away at any moment."

    "For the next seven days..."

    "Do not allow them to regain consciousness."

    "Keep them sedated."

    "Provide nutrient solution."

    "Only wake them after we've confirmed they can no longer teleport."


    ---

    "I'll finish my experiments first."

    "After that..."

    "You can do whatever you want with them."


    ---

    Yashan nodded confidently.

    "Leave it to me."

    "They won't escape."


    ---

    Dragging his two prisoners away...

    Yashan slowly disappeared toward his prison.


    ---

    Meanwhile...

    Su Hao looked at the two unconscious volunteers lying on the operating table.

    He injected both of them with a long-lasting sedative...

    Ensuring they would remain unconscious for quite some time.


    ---

    As always...

    He took out paper and a pen.

    Then began designing his experiment.


    ---

    Objective:

    Study the protective mechanism of the Balancer Agent during spatial teleportation.


    ---

    Hypotheses:

    The Balancer Agent itself resists spatial pressure.

    After injection, it combines with human tissue to form a balancing structure.

    The Balancer Agent functions like a hormone, temporarily transforming human tissue into a structure capable of resisting spatial pressure.


    ---

    Very soon...

    Su Hao completed the entire experimental design.

    Every possible outcome had already been listed.

    Corresponding verification procedures followed each hypothesis.

    One by one...

    He intended to eliminate every possibility until only the correct answer remained.


    ---

    Unfortunately...

    The two volunteers lying on the table would suffer greatly during that process.


    ---

    The first experiment was simple.

    Attempt human teleportation.

    Then compare their physiological condition before and after teleportation.


    ---

    Originally...

    Su Hao assumed teleporting humans would be no different from teleporting rabbits.

    Reality proved otherwise.


    ---

    The mental burden was dramatically heavier.

    Unlike summoned beasts...

    Humans produced tremendous resistance.


    ---

    Su Hao increased the pulling force of his consciousness.


    ---

    Whoosh!


    ---

    One volunteer instantly disappeared from the operating table...

    Reappearing directly before Su Hao.


    ---

    "It worked."


    ---

    Su Hao frowned.

    "But the mental burden is enormous."


    ---

    "Is it because humans possess much stronger consciousness than summoned beasts?"

    "If this person were awake..."

    "And actively resisted..."

    "Teleportation would probably fail."


    ---

    Only then did Su Hao understand.

    Transporting humans required an astonishing amount of mental power.

    No wonder Resistance members never simply teleported reinforcements directly into battle.

    The difficulty was far greater than he had imagined.


    ---

    Setting that question aside for now...

    Su Hao placed a hand on the unconscious volunteer.

    Blood qi flowed into the body.

    Its complete physiological structure was immediately recorded inside Marble Space.


    ---

    "Now..."

    "Let's see exactly what changed..."

    "Before and after teleportation."
