(Second Release) 931: Chapter 941: Cellular Phagocytosis!
(Second Release) Peng Yuan burst into hearty laughter, his whole deanor exuding comfort and ease as he drank large gulps of liquor.
He never imagined he could feel so relaxed in the presence of a younger man.
This feeling was truly exhilarating.
“Tang Zhong, I’m proud of you.
You’ve made look good!”
Hearing the old General’s words, Tang Zhong also laughed.
The two, old and young, seed like old friends reunited after many years.
“Don’t worry, General.
I won’t let you down.”
Tang Zhong didn’t know why, but looking at General Peng Yuan, he suddenly thought of his own grandfather, Tang Zongyao.
The resemblance between the two n was uncanny.
Suddenly, General Peng Yuan straightened his back and fixed his eyes on Tang Zhong, as though he had sothing significant to say.
“Young Tang, promise —if one day I’m no longer around, the banner of the Dragon Group will be yours to carry.
You must ensure that the light of the Dragon Group shines across the entire Xuan Country.
Can you do that?”
“I can,” Tang Zhong replied sincerely.
“I don’t expect you to be perfect; all I ask is for people to feel that things are fair.
That’s it.” Peng Yuan paused.
“I will,” Tang Zhong said firmly.
In that mont, Tang Zhong felt an incredible weight settle on his shoulders—a responsibility far greater than ever before.
“Let’s go back to the Dragon Group, and make sure to keep today’s conversation between us,” Peng Yuan said.
“Understood.”
The two drank baijiu all the way back, neither of them rembering exactly how they fell asleep.
All they could recall was how striking the sunlight was that night.
When Tang Zhong woke up the next morning, he found himself in a room.
His head swayed a little—he was still feeling the effects of the liquor from the night before, leaving him lightheaded.
But… where was he?
Suddenly, the door burst open, and Li Linglong charged in like a gust of wind, stopping right at Tang Zhong’s bedside.
“You’re incredible, Tang Zhong!
Truly the idol of your generation.
Damn, you’re unstoppable—even daring to fight soone from the Yan Family!
I, Li Linglong, rarely admire anyone, but you’ve already got three tis this year.”
“You have no idea—after you hit that guy, the entire Dragon Group was in an uproar.
Everyone wants to et you!
If I hadn’t stopped them, so of the girls from the Dragon Clan might’ve actually tried to seduce you.
Do you know how much it boosts my reputation to tell people you’re my friend?” Li Linglong said excitedly.
“Oh, give it a rest,” Tang Zhong replied, clearly unimpressed.
Seeing Tang Zhong’s skeptical expression, Li Linglong imdiately beca anxious.
“You don’t believe , do you?
Just wait!”
Li Linglong stepped outside and yelled loudly, “Tang Zhong—General Tang—is awake!”
Soon, voices could be heard from outside.
“Really?
Is he really awake?”
“I need to see General Tang!”
The sound of rushing footsteps echoed from the corridor.
In the next second, a group of people from the Dragon Group poured into the room, surrounding Tang Zhong as he sat on the bed.
“General Tang, I made this oatal for you.
It’ll help you recover.”
“General Tang, you really stood up for us and gave those people what they deserved!”
Tang Zhong was at a loss.
He had only gotten drunk—how did it escalate to people bringing him bird’s nest soup?
Just then, more footsteps approached from outside.
General Peng Yuan entered, dressed not in his usual military uniform but in casual clothes, as if preparing for a trip.
“Young Tang, finally awake?
How is it that soone your age can’t hold their liquor better than this old man?” Peng Yuan said with a hearty laugh.
“The General is as formidable as ever,” Tang Zhong replied with a chuckle of his own.
“Alright, I won’t say much.
This ti, I ca to bid you farewell,” Peng Yuan said.
“Huh… Farewell?
General, where are you going?” Tang Zhong quickly got out of bed.
“Last night’s talk made think of my old friends.
I’ve decided to visit them.
They must be having a tough ti at the Chaotic Burial Mound.
Alright, enough chatter—I’m off.” Peng Yuan said casually.
Tang Zhong understood that the “old friends” Peng Yuan spoke of were the soldiers who had died in the war.
“Take care,” he said solemnly.
“Oh, co now, you’re worried about this old man?
Don’t be,” Peng Yuan replied with a chuckle.
So mbers of the Dragon Group offered to escort the General, but he declined all their help.
Soon after, Peng Yuan left the Dragon Group, climbing into a modest car that quickly drove away.
Tang Zhong and the others watched him leave.
Monts later, Tang Zhong’s phone buzzed with a text ssage.
“The Dragon Group is in your hands now.
As for , this old man is going to take a good rest.”
Tang Zhong smiled and replied with a single ssage: “No problem.”
He put his phone away.
The mission entrusted to him by the old General—he would never let him down.
At that mont, another ssage ca in.
Tang Zhong glanced at it, and imdiately his expression darkened.
Without a word, he turned and headed back to the Dragon Group.
The ssage was from the Dragon Group’s research lab, regarding new findings about the resurrected bodies of Benny and others.
Tang Zhong had previously enlisted the help of a researcher for this project, and now there were results.
The researcher quickly inford him.
Soon, Tang Zhong arrived at the laboratory.
On an operating table, there was a microscope.
Beside it stood a scientist in a white lab coat, who hurriedly approached Tang Zhong as he entered.
“General, the results you requested are in.
Take a look.”
Tang Zhong imdiately examined the slides under the microscope.
What he saw left him stunned.
Countless cells moved restlessly, appearing to pulsate with an extraordinary vitality, devouring everything in their path.
Tang Zhong, well-versed in biology, had never seen anything like these cells before.
Powerful, frenzied, as if desperate to escape their containnt.
These were not normal cells.
“Where did these co from?” Tang Zhong demanded, turning to the researcher.
“From Benny’s heart.
It’s strange—these cells can devour other cells in the body and transform them into similar cells.
It’s incredibly domineering,” the researcher explained.
“I’ve never seen anything like this.
They don’t even seem to belong to this world—more like sothing extraterrestrial.
I’ve been wondering… what kind of person could possess such cells?”
Tang Zhong narrowed his eyes.
There had to be a reason for this.
Before Benny died, he had ntioned sothing about the Life Project.
Could this be Yun Country’s thod for resurrecting the dead?
There was definitely sothing off.
Tang Zhong fell silent and continued examining the cells through the microscope.
“Show how these cells operate.
I want to see,” he instructed.
“Understood, General,” the researcher replied imdiately.
The researcher then prepared a demonstration.
He took a small frog, euthanized it, and extracted a sample of cellular tissue to interact with the mysterious cells under the microscope.
“Watch closely, General.”
Tang Zhong focused intently as the demonstration began.
At first, nothing happened.
Then, a mont later, a shocking scene unfolded—
The green frog cell encountered the black, frenzied cell.
Like a predator, the black cell devoured it in an instant.
Cells capable of devouring others!
