To be safe, Meng Chao went to another participant and borrowed a second badge.
Both badges contained weak radioactivity and could react with biological reagents.
However, Meng Chao, who had perfected harvesting skills, could tell that there was a slight difference in the weight of the two emblems.
"When these two badges were made, the ratio of radioactive materials and biological materials was different."
"If that's the case, the radiation and pheromones they release will also differ in intensity and concentration. “
Meng Chao's mind raced, and he soon found the reason.
Of the two badges, one was taken from the chest of an ordinary participant.
The other one came from a transmigration expert from Project 101.
It was easy to guess that the badge worn by Professor Lu Tianxing, the soul of the transmigration project, was mixed with the most radioactive substances and biological materials. In the eyes of the Zergs, it released an exceptionally dazzling light and an incredibly strong pheromone.
This was the reason why the monsters could accurately locate the members of the project team, including Professor Lu Tianxing.
"Who was responsible for making these badges?"
Meng Chao quickly asked the people in the meeting.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. Their faces were filled with bewilderment, and they did not know what was going on.
"Sister Xiao!"
"She's Zhao Feixuan's wife, and Zhao Feixuan is one of the twelve committee members of Blue Home. She must know! “
Sure enough, when they found the sleepy Xiao Fanghua again, the latter gave them an answer.
"It was provided by a friend of Old Zhao's, Zhou Tianshui. “
Xiao Fanghua said, "Old Zhao is in charge of the conference's affairs. He originally wanted to order a batch of badges and add data storage as souvenirs, but Zhou Tianshui said that he was in the old metal recycling business and happened to have a batch of good old metal that could be used to make badges to celebrate the in-progress results of Project 101.
"Zhou Tianshui is a firm believer in the Home Party. He's usually very passionate about the matters of Blue Home, regardless of whether they're big or small. Old Zhao doesn't think that there's anything wrong with it, so he let him handle it.
"Three days ago, he did indeed bring a batch of really beautiful commemorative medals. They're even prettier than Blue Home's emblem. Old Zhao was very happy, and he even brought the emblem to me. That's why I have a deep impression of him."
"Zhou Tianshui?"
Meng Chao closed his eyes and thought about it for three seconds. The image of a fatty who always smiled and looked like the Maitreya Buddha appeared in his mind.
He had met Zhou Tianshui a few times during Blue Home's activities.
The one that left the deepest impression was Zhou Tianshui wearing a robe from Earth. He was drunk and singing a poem that had been passed down for thousands of years. In the end, he was not careful and tripped over a table leg. He fell flat on his back and even tore a hole in the robe that was a size smaller. Everyone could not help but laugh.
This was a person who looked harmless and even a little stupid.
He did not have the sharpness of Lin Chuan, Gao Ye, or even Zhao Feixuan.
Hence, when Meng Chao started investigating Blue Home, he had subconsciously ignored Zhou Tianshui.
At that moment, he suddenly realized that Zhou Tianshui was among the survivors in the armory.
The survivors of the armory were the team that escorted Professor Lu Tianxing.
If the mole was the one who made the badges and was inseparable from Professor Lu, then Zhou Tianshui was the only possible explanation!
"Go back quickly. Zhou Tianshui should still be quarantined in the medical camp! “
Meng Chao turned around and ran.
"This guy is really audacious. He actually dares to hide among the survivors? “
Lu Siya gasped.
"His disguise is pretty perfect. If it weren't for the fact that he has really sharp senses of smell and unfathomable intelligence, it would be very difficult for him to figure out the truth and catch his tail. Why wouldn't he dare to stay? “
Meng Chao snorted coldly. "After all, the abnormal beasts' plan didn't succeed. With him around, they might launch a second attack.
"Once Blue Home's foundation is greatly damaged, he will have a higher chance to climb to the higher ranks. For example, he can replace Zhao Feixuan and become a committee member of Blue Home. Then, he can change this legal organization into an illegal, extreme, radical, and violent organization and achieve the abnormal beasts' goal of intensifying the conflict in Dragon City!"
As they spoke, they rushed into the quarantine area in the medical camp.
"Where's Zhou Tianshui? “
Meng Chao looked around but did not see him.
"Old Zhou's screening report is out. He's not infected with viruses or spores," a survivor who knew Meng Chao said.
"That's why he took an ambulance with the other uninfected people and was sent to the hospital in the city."
Meng Chao cursed in his heart and asked, "When did he leave?"
"About two or three minutes ago. You missed him," the survivor said.
'Then I can still make it.'
Meng Chao had Lu Siya notify the hospital to immediately stop the ambulance Zhou Tianshui took.
Right now, the ambulance should have just arrived at the edge of the battlefield.
To prevent Zhou Tianshui from becoming suspicious, he said that he wanted to add two more injured people who had passed the test.
While doing so, he brought out a bottle of gel spray from his harvester's tool bag and sprayed himself from head to toe. He paid special attention to his hair, armpits, and other places with thick body hair.
Soon, the hospital replied that the ambulance was waiting for them two streets away.
Lu Siya also notified Sky Pillar Corporation's armed forces, the Vulcan Commandos, as well as the elite investigators from the abnormal beast research department.
But Meng Chao was worried that something might happen if he delayed it, so he immediately rushed to two streets away.
The ambulance was parked alone in the dark.
Meng Chao sucked in a deep breath and rubbed his face gently. He adjusted his micro-expression and went forward with a smile.
The back door of the ambulance opened.
Inside were six lightly injured people, a doctor, and a nurse.
Because the injuries were not serious, and the test results for the virus and spores were negative, the lightly injured people who survived the disaster looked very relaxed.
When they saw Meng Chao, the fierce person who had turned the tides and saved their lives, they bowed and stood up in the carriage. They thanked him profusely and enthusiastically pulled him into the carriage.
Meng Chao immediately saw Zhou Tianshui curled up in the corner behind the driver's seat.
A glint flashed across Zhou Tianshui's eyes when he saw him arrive.
Then, he squeezed his chubby face until it looked like a morning glory. He smiled and said, "Club Leader Meng, thank you so much for today. If you didn't show off your might, we might have died here. You're just a university student, but you managed to become the club leader of the Broken Star Club. As expected, you're not an ordinary person!"
"Brother Zhou, you're too polite. “
Meng Chao narrowed his eyes and looked at the situation behind him through the rearview mirror of the ambulance.
Lu Siya was leading a group of Vulcan Commandos to surround them from the end of the street.
Meng Chao bent his back and went forward. He smiled and said, "Big Brother Zhou, let's squeeze together. Honestly, when I heard you recite poems during the Earth Poetry Appreciation Event, I felt as if we were old friends at first sight. Since we have the chance, let's talk."
"Sure! “
Zhou Tianshui slapped his thigh, as if he did not suspect Meng Chao. He arched his butt and made room for Meng Chao.
Meng Chao went forward and was about to sit down when their gazes met. They saw sparks burning in each other's eyes.
Meng Chao's skin crawled. A sense of danger pierced through his skull like an icicle. Before he could register what was going on, he instinctively shouted, "Everyone, run! “
It's too late!
Boom!
A piercing ball of light exploded in the small ambulance. The impact was like a tidal wave that pushed everyone to the windows and doors. The windows shattered, and the carriage was torn apart from the inside.
In an instant, Meng Chao's vision turned stark white. His ears became wet, and blood flowed out of them.
It was a stun grenade.
This sort of non-lethal weapon was originally developed to capture monsters alive.
But against his expectations, once it was developed, it was discovered that it was too powerful. Even though it was just a powerful flash and tremor that might not be able to kill a monster, it usually left the monster with severe concussions, and it could not be tamed or researched.
But Zhou Tianshui somehow saw through it and knew that Meng Chao was here to capture him, which was why he detonated the hidden stun grenade without hesitation.
The medical staff and the lightly injured coughed up blood and flew out of the ambulance like kites with their strings snapped.
Meng Chao felt as if he had opened a department store in his mind, and it was a department store where all the goods were sold at 50% off during the anniversary celebration.
He used a long time before his spirit energy surged into his brain again. It cleared his blood vessels and nerves, and he gradually regained his sight.
He looked up and saw Zhou Tianshui jump out of the ambulance through the shattered windshield. He was running madly on the dark street.
He might have been plump, but he moved as if he was flying. In the blink of an eye, he was already dozens of meters away.
Meng Chao gritted his teeth and chased after him without caring about his dizziness.
He brought out the explosive strength of someone at the peak of Earth Realm. It was as if there was a rocket under his feet, and with just a few steps, he shortened the distance between them to less than ten meters.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two chain sabers flew out of Meng Chao's hands. Even though the blades were already broken, the chains still bound Zhou Tianshui's legs.
But against his expectations, Zhou Tianshui's entire body seemed to be covered in a layer of grease. He easily slid out of the restraints of the chains, and he was only half a beat slower.
Meng Chao quickly caught up to him and threw a punch. Demon Subduing Pole was activated at full strength along with an angry roar.
Zhou Tianshui let out a piercing scream and spun around like a top. With the force of his spin, he swung his fist at Meng Chao's arm.
Bang!
The two of them punched each other hard.
On the surface, Zhou Tianshui was the boss of an old metal recycling company. Even though he was a superhuman, his skills were more focused on metal refinement and creation. He was not a fighting occupation.
Meng Chao had never discovered that he had astonishing fighting strength in his past investigations.
The result of their fight was that Meng Chao did not manage to take down Zhou Tianshui in one move. Zhou Tianshui's fleshy arms were like two boneless pythons, and Meng Chao's Demon Subduing Pole felt like it had sunk into the sea.
Instead, Zhou Tianshui used the force of Meng Chao's punch to fly more than ten meters away like a balloon.
He sucked in a deep breath while in the air.
His already plump body swelled up again, and he turned from a balloon into a hot air balloon.
"Thud! “
When Meng Chao caught up to him again, Zhou Tianshui widened his eyes, and a thick, faint green gas gushed out of his body!
