Legend of the Planet Builder-Chapter 15 - : Top-Level Security Incident!

"Who? How could this be cultivated?" Song Jinhong immediately asked.

"It was me, Professor Song." He Xingzhou volunteered to step forward.

Song Jinhong looked him up and down and said: "You look very familiar to me."

Zhang Boyan reminded: "This is my student, the one who built the miniature nuclear fission reactor before, He Xingzhou."

"Oh, it's you!" Song Jinhong exclaimed, remembering it indeed happened.

He inquired: "How did you cultivate it?"

He Xingzhou said: "Professor Song, you'll know if you look at our experimental records."

He showed Song Jinhong the experimental records that he had previously shown to Dong Chen and Zhang Boyan, and Song Jinhong carefully read through them, growing increasingly astonished.

"Mutant creatures speed up mutation when stimulated by nuclear radiation?"

"Its original form was just a black sea bream? Not a large marine creature?"

"In such a short time, the gene module has completely changed, with mutant genes dominating this organism!"

"And now it isn't yet in its final form; it can continue mutating!"

Upon seeing the experimental records, Song Jinhong's entire understanding was overturned, "How is this possible? How can such creatures exist on Earth?"

"I thought such creatures were just some undiscovered species or some kind of mildly mutated organism, but this isn't mere mutation; it's not even the same species anymore!"

He Xingzhou said: "Professor Song, I've named this mutant gene 'Insect Race gene.' I wrote a thesis on the evolutionary inference of the Insect Race gene. According to my inference, this Insect Race gene is entirely an alien gene, even possibly a biological weapon from an extraterrestrial species!"

"It parasitizes creatures on this planet, and after a certain amount of development, it will mutate like Black Sea Bream No.2."

"They might possess higher intelligence, have a strong physical body, and could even pose a threat to all humanity!"

"Not only Black Sea Bream No.2, but I have also sampled marine life from seafood markets. Even among those not yet mutated, some carry latent Insect Race genes! This means genetic pollution has already spread throughout the ocean! Once all these creatures mutate, the consequences are unimaginable!"

As He Xingzhou spoke, everyone present changed color, "Is the situation this serious?"

"Could a mutant creature trigger a global biochemical disaster?"

He Xingzhou affirmed: "Yes, and even more serious than I've said! If not handled properly, humanity could potentially go extinct!"

"Professor Song, I suggest you report to the National Security Bureau immediately! Have the higher-ups take this seriously and take action!"

Although Song Jinhong was surprised by the mutant fish, he still had reservations about He Xingzhou's claim that it was a global disaster.

Mutant creatures pop up every year and, although there have been more in the last two years, it shouldn't affect humanity – we have airplanes and cannons!

"Let me see your reasoning model," said Song Jinhong.

"Alright." He Xingzhou showed it to him on the laboratory computer.

Others didn't understand and could only observe Song Jinhong's expression. Initially shocked, the usually composed Academician from the Academy of Sciences turned pale and began sweating coldly after viewing He Xingzhou's Insect Race gene inference model.

"Old Song, what do you think?" President Liu Yuan asked doubtfully.

Song Jinhong abruptly stood up and said gravely: "President, this is absolutely a matter of national security! I don't dare to speculate now, and this classmate is right. This situation is not merely about mutant creatures anymore. I must report immediately to the National Security Bureau!"

"Police officer, please take immediate control of this building, and except for our researchers, do not allow anyone to enter!"

"We must also keep this mutant creature here, and not act rashly towards it!"

"And He Xingzhou, you must stay in the university these next few days, do not leave campus; someone will come to investigate this matter soon!"

Hearing Song Jinhong's words, the entire room was shocked!

He Xingzhou had said this from the start, but they still somewhat doubted the situation had escalated to that level.

But now, it was Song Jinhong speaking – an international top-tier biologist and Academician of the Academy of Sciences. He was so cautious, could he be wrong?

So that meant He Xingzhou didn't lie to them?

Realizing this, everyone could no longer remain calm!

Liu Yuan immediately commanded: "Okay, I'll also immediately contact the higher-ups!"

Captain Lei Yiming of the police force quickly arranged for his officers, saying: "Contact headquarters quickly, please send more personnel here, guard this building 24 hours a day, and keep any unrelated personnel away! Wait for further instructions from above!"

"Yes!" The officers began to carry out their tasks.

People from the Forestry Bureau also arranged: "We need to have somebody here 24 hours a day to prevent the creature from causing any accidents."

Lei Yiming told He Xingzhou, Wu Rui, and Jiang Chan: "Fellow students, please also cooperate with us for a simple record. Before we receive higher instructions, it's best not to leave campus."

"Okay." He Xingzhou had expected this, so he was very calm.

Wu Rui and Jiang Chan were facing this kind of situation for the first time, feeling a bit panicked, fearing they had gotten themselves into some serious trouble.

He Xingzhou reassured: "Don't worry, you won't be in trouble. They will probably ask me."

The biology laboratory building was now completely sealed, whereas Song Jinhong was dialing the phone to contact the higher-ups.

"Director Cui, it's me, Song Jinhong." Song Jinhong called the National Security Bureau, specifically the leader in charge of biological security.

On the other end of the phone, Cui Weimin spoke respectfully: "Academician Song, how come you have the time to call me today."

"Director Cui, I have to report a biological safety incident," said Song Jinhong in a grave voice.

Hearing this, Cui Weimin was startled and quickly asked: "What incident requires your personal report? What level of biological safety incident is it?"

He knew that something Song Jinhong personally reported was definitely not a minor incident.

Song Jinhong's next words made Cui Weimin's hair stand on end, and his heart skipped a beat as he heard Song Jinhong say: "SSS-level, biological safety incident!"

"SSS-level!" Cui Weimin had worked at the Security Bureau for decades, and most incidents encountered were ordinary. Even acute infectious diseases that endangered the country were only categorized as S-level biological safety incidents.

SSS-level biological safety incidents were the highest level. He had thought he would never encounter such an event in his lifetime!

Because once such an event occurs, it could be a threat to the nation's survival!

"Professor Song, are you sure? Where is it? What happened?" Cui Weimin hurriedly asked.

"It's at Beijing University of Science and Technology!" said Song Jinhong, "The site is already under control. Please immediately send colleagues from the Security Bureau to take over and control it, and conduct further investigations!"

"For more details, please contact President Liu Yuan. Right now, I also need to urgently contact the Biological Research Institute of the National Academy of Sciences to research this matter!"
