Mordinso/Lo/S, the first time I saw this person, I felt that this person was extraordinary.
The Salarians all have standard rugby-shaped "alien" big eyes, a small head, a narrow and short chin and cheeks... The whole head is somewhat like an inverted gourd, bigger at the top and smaller at the bottom. There are small fleshy horns on both sides of the body - you can best distinguish them by their skin color and the extra scales in the irregular areas, otherwise they will easily fall into the embarrassment of face blindness.
But this one is different, he impresses people immediately.
One of the horns on this person's head is missing, and there are many small scars on his face, especially between the eyes. But the most obvious thing is that this Salarian has many subtle wrinkles on his face. .
This is a talented geneticist and former member of the Salarian Special Service Group (STG), the number one person on the Salarian government's RED (extraordinary) Dangerous list who needs to be vigilant.
The Salarian Secret Service is synonymous with the ghost organization of the Salarian government. In fact, the predecessor of the Secret Service, the Divine Wing, was the idea of the Citadel Council to establish ghost agents.
There is a tradition in the intelligence community: Once you serve as an intelligence officer, you will never leave it. Only death can escape you.
Basically no one can avoid this tradition. Even if they can retire normally, they must have a confidentiality period of more than 50 years... Asari may be better, humans and Salarians basically mean that you must serve until you join. die.
Very few people can retire. Xie Yuan is a special case, but Professor Modin is a strange person. He not only retired, but also settled down in Omega, and even lived a very long life - at least compared to Serra, whose average life span is 35-50 years old. Among wise people, he is already over fifty years old and will be sixty soon.
What a centenarian!
Such a person is not only a genuine high-level intellectual, but also an operational agent with a high intelligence level. In addition, he is retired in an area not traditionally controlled by the Salarian government... He definitely has the strength to easily save his life, and he is not responsible for the government. Information that dares to mess up.
Theoretically, Xie Yuan is absolutely unwilling to provoke such an old agent and great scientist, so even if Xie Yuan knows that there is such a person, that he lives in a slum and has opened a clinic, he absolutely does not want to provoke him, and even basically does not want to deal with him. .
This guy's clinic is also one of the few shops that does not need to pay taxes to the Qingyang mercenary group that controls the slums - since all the members of the last tax collection team sent to disturb him died in front of his shop. , and immediately stopped.
But now Xie Yuan can't help but visit him.
Because a very strange plague broke out in the slums of Omega - this is a mild sexually transmitted disease that will be infected by other races except humans and Woyun, and will also cause fever and cause multiple organ failure and death. /poison.
Unsurprisingly, this is a specially designed biochemical/virus. But the question on the table is who planted the virus/virus and how? Are there any solutions?
Soon, due to the outbreak of the plague, things turned out to be just as Xie Yuan had been worried about - public opinion quickly blamed the culprit for releasing the virus on human beings, which suddenly triggered the entire Omega conflict. The great hatred of mankind.
As for why not suspect the Woyun people?
It's a pity that we can't, because as a shorter-lived race than the Zelarians, with an average life span of less than twenty years, their learning ability is not strong at all, and they will not even take the initiative to learn.
Even the large number of Vulcans who escaped from their planet did not do so voluntarily - it was said that they were brought out by the krogan.
These super short-lived species focus all the biological evolutionary technology tree on adaptability: although they look like humans in shape, they have undifferentiated cell layer tissue, just like the flower insect worms on the earth. In addition to the cranial capacity and brain
In addition to the fact that the size will not change, almost the whole body of the Vocha can evolve in any environment that does not result in immediate death.
But other than that, you said you want them to study such an exquisite virus?
If you believe this guess, you might as well believe that Omega will one day make the environment safer and residents become happy!
But Xie Yuan was really suspicious of the Woyun people—for no other reason than that the collector had dealt with the Woyun people before, and the latter had been the collector's executor for a period of time.
As a result, one of the humans kidnapped by the collector on a large scale did not get sick, and the other Woyun people who were actually slaves for the collector did not get sick either. To say that there was nothing strange about this, Xie Yuan did not believe it at all.
However, before wiping out the so-called Woyun group in the slums, Xie Yuan still planned to say hello to Professor Modin - in terms of experience in dealing with such biochemical attacks, he was still not as experienced as this veteran Salarian agent, so it would be best if he
I need to ask the elders for help.
At this time, the slums have been sealed off by the Qingyang Mercenary Group - they have sealed the residents of the entire four districts within the area to prevent all possible infected people from escaping from the epidemic area.
At the same time, a mandatory curfew was issued. If anyone was seen running around on the street, they would be shot to death indiscriminately.
Although this behavior is correct in a sense and can suppress the outbreak of the plague to the greatest extent. However, the original intention is not very good - they have determined that this is a biochemical attack and cannot identify the suspects. Everyone has poisoned
suspicion.
So they thought that as long as all the people were killed, the entire neighborhood could be disinfected, and the plague would disappear.
This is not okay!
Because if such a cruel method is followed, public opinion in the future will be completely distorted - Omega, who has not been able to obtain the truth, will only suspect that the biggest suspect in this incident is a human being, and even subconsciously doubt human beings.
Being blamed for releasing biochemical viruses is not a good thing for the development of mankind. More importantly, Xie Yuan really did not see the benefits of human beings acting as the main messenger to release this plague.
So Xie Yuan must rush to the slums to visit Professor Mordin and try to get the truth from him - even if he hasn't yet, Xie Yuan must help him get the truth.
…
Although in this slum, every major and major traffic artery has been blocked by Qingyang people, it is easy for Xie Yuan to find a gap through which he can enter.
Directly using his soul body to penetrate into the wall, and then come out from the other end, Xie Yuan is already in the slum.
Then he took out the relocated puppet in the space, then re-possessed it, and then put on a suit of Star Alliance Marine Sergeant Armor, except that the official Star Alliance logo was removed.
Then I put on a black robe and went straight to the clinic from the main entrance to visit.
There was basically no one on the road, but Xie Yuan still listened to everything going on around him with his ears.
When he saw aliens coming to persecute ordinary human families, Xie Yuan immediately stepped in to stop them. If he couldn't stop them with words, he just spoke with his fists. He also suggested waiting to contact Professor Modin before picking them up.
Sometimes if he encounters human gangsters who want to take advantage of the crisis to cause trouble, Xie Yuan will also stop such actions that corrupt human morals - but these gangsters can only see a two-meter-tall tall man with a huge shotgun.
Can compromise and retreat.
On the way, Xie Yuan also found a Batarian who was suffering from a cough but was probably homeless. He was hiding on the inside of the street at an intersection. His life signal showed that he was very weak.
"Uh... that..." Xie Yuan walked over, squatted down a few steps in front of the Batarian, and tried to ask: "Can you still hold on?"
"Earthling?!" The Batarian opened his eyes slightly and saw Xie Yuan. But when he saw Xie Yuan, no matter how weak he was, he still cursed him angrily and intermittently: "...You are the ones who did it.
It’s a good thing! Spread the virus, and then plunder the property of the dead! Despicable earthlings...ah, cough, cough, cough...!"
Seeing the Batarian who was about to fall into shock due to a violent cough, Xie Yuan directly opened the multi-purpose tool and ejected the specially prepared medical needle for the alien against the Batarian.
"Hey! Stay awake," Xie Yuan encouraged him while rescuing him. "This may not cure your disease, but it can make you feel better."
"Oh... you..." The Batarian finally stood up with some strength and looked at Xie Yuan in disbelief, "You saved me. Why?"
"There are good and bad Batarians, and the same goes for humans, but I assure you this time it was definitely not us humans who did it."
Xie Yuan told the Batarian: "And I am here to find a cure and prove it at the same time."
"What you said... sounds very sincere." The Batarian's face still couldn't hide the pain, but after all, he had received the kindness of saving his life, and his tone finally softened, "Maybe I'm hot-headed, but as you said -
—What do I have to lose? What do you want to know?"
Xie Yuan has already guessed a lot of things, so there is no need to ask. He is only interested in one thing: "Have there been any abnormalities in the Woyuan people recently? What are they doing now?"
"What's wrong with the Woyun people? They just fight and kill every day."
The Batarian didn't seem to care: "Although I'm grateful for your help, I'm sorry to say that it's really difficult for you to find evidence that the Woyun people did it. Now all the evidence points to
you.
As for their current trends? I can only say that Qingyang is protecting their territory now, but with the spread of the epidemic, it is probably only a matter of time before they are defeated by the Woyu people."
After getting the information that was almost confirmed in his heart, Xie Yuan also said goodbye to the Batarians, but he promised that once he saw Professor Mordin, he would send someone to take him into his clinic.
Xie Yuan encountered many struggles along the way, but he had no time to deal with them. He directly opened his tactical cloak and crossed the battlefield, going around here and there before arriving at the clinic.
Xie Yuan is taking the right path. After all, he knows very well that walking in back alleys or trails will inevitably encounter some kind of judgment trap - it is one thing for this person to love saving lives, but he can cold-bloodedly stun him with poisonous gas and then shoot him.
And hanging the body out is another matter.
He has something to ask for, and there is nothing that cannot be kept secret, so it is best to approach him openly.
After walking through an aisle surrounded by advanced security robots, Xie Yuan arrived at the clinic.
Everyone was busy overloaded, and Xie Yuan saw at a glance the master who could solve a large number of emergency medical problems with just a few words - Professor Modin... as long as he could bear the speed of his machine gun.
Then, it was a set of tricks that revealed each other's true identities when they met - but the main reason was that Xie Yuan suffered a lot, but Xie Yuan didn't feel any discomfort at all.
There is no shame in losing at the hands of veteran agents. What you learn is what you earn.
After all, my own experience as an agent lasted for less than thirty years, while he had been in the industry since he was twelve years old and had a career as a regular agent for more than forty years.
However, after learning that Professor Moding also intended to find the mastermind and solve the epidemic at the same time, Xie Yuan thought for a while and revealed the truth he knew...
"It was actually the Collector who did it?!" Modin's already big eyes widened even more at this moment.
