Chapter 364: (EDT) Duranium (4)
Except for Valerian, everyone else had returned to their post at the end of the meeting. She was the only one with another task after all.
The third Assailant-Class Patrol Ship was also ready for depart by the time their meeting ended. With Valerian accompanying Zhang Qin Feng to oversee the process, he appointed one more reliable subordinate from Satella's private team to commandeer the ship.
As there's nothing else to be done, it was time for Valerian to fulfill the responsibility as Zhang Qin Feng's woman. This was something only she could do whenever he returned from a life and death battlefield.
At that very night, the two rolled under the blanket and started a battle that could decide the life and death of millions of warriors. Unsure where his vigor came from, Zhang Qin Feng made sure he performed as excellently as he was on the battlefield.
The room was filled with the smell of sweat and seductive pheromones lingering in the air. And as the one serving Zhang Qin Feng with all her heart, even Valerian started to be afraid of Zhang Qin Feng's incredible stamina.
This was not her first time sleeping soundly like a log after being filled to the brim by whatever Zhang Qin Feng was giving her. But unfortunately, as long as the issue with the fertility of the clones is not solved, conceiving Zhang Qin Feng's offspring is impossible to be done.
'Stein.' Zhang Qin Feng was in a conversation with Stein after fulfilling his sexual needs. Of course, the sleeping Valerian is in his embrace right now. Since there's no need for him to open his eyes, mouth to communicate with Stein, he could do it while in his sleep.
The topic of their conversation naturally related to the Duranium Crystal and what happened earlier. Although the meeting ended with only one brownish Duranium Crystal left in the researchers' hand, more things required his concern.
He had to find out the actual cause behind the feeling of fear and despair that could take down his men. And from what he was told by Valerian, Lucian's team of researchers had plenty of enhanced Duranium Crystal to work with. Still, none of them produce such a threatening air.
'What is your opinion regarding the feeling of fear everyone had earlier? Can this phenomenon be explained from the System's point of view?' Zhang Qin Feng asked.
He's not only curious but surprised at the same time, as he was the only one unaffected by the power of two Duranium Crystal placed together. At some point, nothing about the phenomenon made sense when it appeared.
[The System had some suspicion, but for now, the data to prove this suspicion is insufficient to provide the host with an agreeable answer]
[But from the record, the System believes that the brownish Duranium Crystal holds some secret behind the Tyrant Variant's path of evolution. The System also believes that the composition of the shard was likely the reason behind that feeling]
'The composition of the shard?' Zhang Qin Feng has already started to find it challenging for him to follow.
[Based on the amount of exposure to the Duranium Crystal, no one here could compete with what the host had gone through. But weirdly, the host body had no response to the phenomenon at all]
[This discovery allowed the System to produce a wild theory. Would the host feel fear if you're put inside a cave crawling with millions of spiders?]
Stein's question made Zhang Qin Feng ponder for a while... But he eventually answered the System with a "Yes."
[That's fear, and it came in many inexplicable forms known as phobia. That is also why the host looks unfazed when fighting against ten thousand zombies but afraid of a million biting spiders]
[And since you're not a local in this dimension, the sense of phobia here naturally does not apply to the host]
Stein's words make sense and not at the same time. Since he and the clones were human, and phobia represented fear, was that not the same?
[This is precisely why the System filed this under "wild theory" in the database. More knowledge, understanding, and data are required to make this topic debatable to everyone]
[But from what the System believes, the cause of this fear came from the Seed Crystal Virus' preference. After over a decade of mutation and evolution, it was reasonable to say that the SCV's sole purpose is to destroy humanity]
How Stein used the word allowed Zhang Qin Feng to roughly understand what it was trying to say.
From the beginning, this is not his war, and it was between the people of this world against the Seed Crystal Virus that came from space. He was more like an agent found by Stein to help them achieve victory.
Unknown how long had their conversation gone, it was already the middle of the afternoon when he opened his eyes. Proper rest was always the best remedy to remove all the fatigue built from the battle.
Resting for a while more with Valerian in his embrace, she woke up about twenty minutes later. Still, she continued to snuggle in his arms until both of them felt hungry.
And after having a quick meal, Zhang Qin Feng followed Valerian to the Research Facility.
"Boss!" Hoya was waiting for Zhang Qin Feng's arrival as he accompanied the two to their destination. It seems Hoya had something to look for Zhang Qin Feng based on his initiative to accompany them.
After walking past the residential and recreation zone, the trio eventually arrived at the Research Facility, where the crew greeted him.
From the eagerness he could see in their expression, Zhang Qin Feng knew that they had been expecting his visit since yesterday. But nothing was more surprising than the makeover done to the facility.
Hoya... Why do I feel that the Research Facility is more spacious compared to my last visit? Did you people tear down some sections nearby to accommodate the need for space?" Zhang Qin Feng asked Hoya.
