Chapter 1131: Chapter 1131

Of course, defeating the Tang family brothers was just a side task. His main objective was to research SNB0, this new type of genetic medicine.

The Medicine Sect, Mo Family, and An Family, under some force, are preparing to jointly develop a genetic medicine that can enhance human capabilities. However, their research has yet to succeed, and the unformed genetic medicine is currently a deadly poison.

With the school holiday the next day, Liu Mengting and the other two girls stayed up late into the night.

When Tang Ming woke up from cultivating in the morning, the three girls were still not up.

After getting some food on his own, Tang Ming eagerly headed to the Liu Group to learn about the research results of the two Doctors Sun.

Arriving at the Liu City Group, Liu Gaoze immediately had him called to the office.

"Little Tang, you finally came. Have you heard?"

Seeing Tang Ming enter, Liu Gaoze immediately picked up the newspaper and waved him over.

Tang Ming looked at Liu Gaoze in confusion. He had come to gather information, and now he was being questioned right as he walked in?

"Looks like you haven’t heard. Take a look at this?"

Liu Gaoze hurriedly handed the newspaper to Tang Ming: "Someone else has fallen into a coma."

Tang Ming exclaimed in surprise, quickly took the newspaper, and was shocked to find that overnight hundreds to thousands of people fell into comas for unknown reasons. The comatose individuals were mostly concentrated in densely populated areas, with the cause still unknown.

"It’s not just in the newspapers; it’s on TV as well."

Liu Gaoze turned on the TV and explained, "The news reports say this is a new type of infectious disease. Once infected, you will die within seven days. Now the entire Songlan City is in panic, and those who haven’t fallen into a coma are trying desperately to escape. Many of our company’s employees haven’t shown up for work today."

"To make things this big, it’s insane!"

Tang Ming stared at the newspaper with a grim expression, thinking quickly.

"Hey! If the school student coma incidents were indeed deliberate poisoning, then there’s only one reason for this current scene."

Liu Gaoze sighed helplessly.

Tang Ming squinted his eyes and uttered two words.

"Exactly. The person behind this wants to retaliate against you for meddling and is issuing a challenge to you."

Liu Gaoze nodded solemnly, hypothesizing that the person behind the scenes was furious because Tang Ming saved those students, which led to this grand scheme.

Tang Ming started to feel a headache. Previously, he could wake those students up, but it wasn’t his doing.

It was the cost of Xiao Honghong falling into sleep that woke people up, and now with Xiao Honghong in a coma, Tang Ming was helpless in this situation.

Having to absorb the poison from each one would be exhausting to death, even for him.

"Uncle Liu, is anyone in the company in a coma?"

Tang Ming took a deep breath and looked uncertainly at Liu Gaoze.

Liu Gaoze nodded, "An employee from the newly-joined HR department."

"Where is the person?"

Tang Ming quickly stood up, needing to check the poisoned individual’s condition to determine if this poison was the same as last time.

"I’ve already sent them to the two Doctors Sun’s lab."

Liu Gaoze quickly responded.

"Huh? Why send them to the lab?"

Tang Ming wondered aloud.

"It was Doctor Sun Yu’s orders, saying it was just right for experimentation."

Liu Gaoze responded uncertainly.

"Alright, I’ll go check it out."

Tang Ming nodded and immediately let Liu Gaoze lead him to the lab.

This time, Nangong Tianyue was really provoked by Tang Ming. Originally, he was conducting live experiments at the school, but Tang Ming rescued them.

So, he decided to go big and poison extensively, to see if Tang Ming had the ability to save so many people at once.

Arriving at the lab, Tang Ming immediately called Sun Yu and Sun Zizai out: "Two doctors, how is your research going?"

Sun Zizai smiled smugly and said softly, "Now we can confirm that the substance in sour plum soup is a biochemical genetic medicine, which we can term as a genetic poison."

"According to our research, this genetic poison is a completely new molecular structure, definitely created and spread by someone."

Sun Yu placed a pile of electronic images in front of Tang Ming and pointed to a video on a laptop.

"What are these things?"

Tang Ming looked at the electronic images in confusion, then turned to the dense molecular structure demonstration in the video.

"Let me explain the principle of the genetic poison to you."

Sun Yu pointed at a piece of white cells in the video and introduced, "These are normal human cells, and the red ones are the atomic manifestation of genetic poison. On the surface, apart from the color, their shape and quantity are exactly the same."

"Are you saying that these genetic poisons look the same as human cells and tissues, so I couldn’t detect their presence, right?"

Tang Ming, uninterested in technical terms, asked directly.

"Yes. But these genetic poisons have a terrifying ability, which is to fuse with the body’s normal cells, ."

Sun Yu continued playing the video, and then it showed normal cells fusing with the genetic poison. The end result didn’t change, only turning into a black-red cell, looking exactly like normal cells."

Tang Ming furrowed his brows, recalling his sensation when absorbing the genetic poison, the battle between the Dust Gu in his own body and the genetic poison that fused with his cells, exactly as Sun Yu described.

"There’s something even scarier."

Sun Zizai said with a face full of fear, "Once genetic poison fuses with normal cells, it crazily stimulates normal human cell growth and mutation, constantly breaking the limits and destroying them under the protection of the genetic poison’s core, and then rebirth. The human body can’t withstand this state, leading to comas."

"I understand the principle now. What I want to know is whether there’s an antidote?"

Tang Ming asked nervously once he grasped the general situation.

Sun Yu and Sun Zizai exchanged glances and then burst into laughter simultaneously.

"What the hell are you laughing at? Is there an antidote or not?"

Tang Ming asked grumpily.

"Originally, we didn’t have an antidote, because we simply couldn’t figure out its action process in the human body. But this morning Liu Gaoze sent over someone who was poisoned, and we examined their body, enabling us to develop a targeted antidote."

"If you’ve developed it, say so earlier."

Tang Ming wiped his sweat, squinted his eyes, "Quick, give me the formula for the antidote. I’ll have the antidote made immediately. Many people are poisoned outside, and the whole city is in panic. If this situation isn’t resolved quickly, Songlan will be doomed."
