Chapter 123 Hidden Crisis
Federal Central.

At the ten-meter-long rectangular conference table, everyone's faces were solemn.

After a fruitless discussion, everyone turned their attention to one place - there was a person sitting on the leather swivel chair in the front center. With his back to everyone, only the hand holding the cigar and the smoke above his head could be seen.

"Mr. President, how do you think we should deal with that ancient human?" someone at the table couldn't help but ask.

The leather chair did not move. The person sitting on it raised his hand and took a puff of his cigar. After a long time, he waved his hand slightly. The secretary standing next to him immediately nodded and projected a research report on the screen.

"According to reports, there is a precious factor in the genes of ancient humans called peptide-phenamine. If we can extract peptide-phenamine and mass-produce it into medicine, we can calm the beastmen when they go berserk."

One person questioned: "Does it really work?"

The secretary nodded calmly, "We have extracted 0.01% of peptide-phanamine from the human blood sample stored in the Ancient Human Research Center. After using it on the violent orc experimenters, the success rate of calming them down reached 60%."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was in an uproar.

0.01% can actually have a 60% success rate. If the concentration is increased, wouldn’t it be a great significance for the whole nation to get rid of the era of madness?
For a time, there was a lot of discussion in the conference room.

Someone looked hesitant and asked, "If that's the case, why does the Prime Minister still allow the ancient humans to be out there without restraint?"

"I think we should let the research center take over as soon as possible."

"Have you forgotten? The last time the Paleoanthropology Research Center took over, what happened? Not only did the person escape, but she also turned that lunatic Zong into her supporter. If you ask me, this ancient human should not be underestimated."

At this point, everyone's eyes turned to Sote Prime Minister Zong Yan who was sitting at the table. Someone even coughed twice and winked at the person who had just spoken, signaling him not to say anything more.

Zong Yan was mature and steady. He closed his eyes and did not respond, as if the person they were talking about had nothing to do with him.

The leather chair turned, and the person in the high position finally revealed his face.

He wore a silver mask on the left half of his face, and looked to be in his twilight years, but still energetic, with a pair of hawk-like eyes that exuded a sense of majesty without even being angry.

When the secretary saw the leader turned around, he quickly and steadily picked up a mini loudspeaker and put it to his throat. The leader's mouth did not move, only a hoarse and dry voice came from the loudspeaker -

"What's the point of fishing for a fish that foolishly bites the hook? The fish that can attract friends and get a group of fish into the net is the valuable fish."

When everyone heard this, they all looked thoughtful.

"Wei Shou."

When the secretary heard the Prime Minister calling his name, he stood up and saluted.

"Go and take good care of our little fish. Make sure the line is neither too tight nor too loose."

"Yes."

After Zong Fang’s matter came to an end, Qiao Susu has been very busy.

First of all, the discussion about her in the entire galaxy has only increased. A lot of "scraps" about her have emerged on the nebula, but they are all gossips of unknown origin. There are even rumors that she has 18 spouses. The number of people who have joined Zizai has reached one million so far. Among the applicants, there are those who are curious and want to watch the fun, those who want to see Qiao Suisui's true appearance, those who are enthusiasts of ancient humans, and those who want to become Qiao Suisui's spouse. It can be said that as long as it is a male who can access the Internet, eight out of ten have submitted applications. Some people even turned the ten-minute introduction video into a blind date introduction.

It will take a lot of time for Qiao Suisui to select those who really want to join the organization from this huge crowd. Fortunately, she is not "fighting alone". First of all, in the first level of screening, Luka ordered Ans to use a program to automatically filter out some orcs with impure intentions, problematic identities or not meeting the requirements. Candidates who meet the requirements will enter the second level of screening, three rounds of interviews, and precise control and elimination from eight dimensions. Then enter the third level of screening and conduct stress testing to see if these candidates will hurt others in extreme situations, or have behaviors that harm others and benefit themselves. At this level, 80% of those who are not good enough can be eliminated. It can be said that candidates can only join the organization after going through a funnel model of layered screening.

This kind of work is not a one-off but a periodic one. Due to the large scale and the continuous influx of new applicants, it needs to be screened in batches. The list of names screened out in each batch is what Qiao Susu sees in the end.

"There are 22 people in this batch, and their information is all here." Luka transferred an encrypted file to Qiao Susu's computer and carefully introduced the situation of each person to her.

Qiao Suisui leaned in his arms and flipped through the pages. When she saw a line, she stopped and asked, "A female has also submitted an application?"

Luka nodded. "Yes, she is the only female in this batch. After Ans' investigation, he found that she is an inferior artificial female with incomplete intelligence."

In fact, this female did not pass the three rounds of interviews, and was even blocked in the first round. It was Luka who insisted on adding her name in the end.

Qiao Susu clicked on her introduction video and found that the entire video was only two minutes long.

For two minutes, the girl in the picture kept shaking her body back and forth, her expression twitching uncontrollably, and her words stuttering, but she still insisted on introducing herself.

"My name is Ellie. Brother, I am afraid of big shadows."

Qiao Susu listened to her words twice and still couldn't understand what the girl named Ellie meant, but she could clearly feel what she was trying to express.

"You kept her here on purpose, have you found out something?" Qiao Susu asked Luka.

"Yes, her brother was once the butler of my other palace."

Qiao Suisui was a little surprised, "You mean Evan?"

It was Evan, the butler who had colluded with the people from the Federation when they took her away.

"That's right." Luka squeezed her palm and told her the whole story.

It turns out that after being rescued by Libery, Ellie has been living with her brother Evan, but Evan did not come home one day, and Ellie used the pension given by Libery to live alone. But not long ago, she began to be harassed by a brown bear orc. Because Ellie's genes were inferior and her intelligence was not fully developed, the male raped Ellie, but did not take responsibility and only came every now and then to vent his anger.

Ellie's intelligence is equivalent to that of an 8-year-old child, but her language development is not good. She knew how to call for help in such a situation. When the brown bear came to her house again, Ellie shouted for help, but was dragged by her hair and thrown against the wall. After that, she was beaten and kicked frequently. Ellie no longer dared to call for help, probably because she had nowhere else to go, or maybe it was a coincidence that when Qiao Suisui's video went viral on the Internet, she watched it hundreds of times.

Ellie didn't fully understand what Qiao Suisui said, but there was one sentence that she kept replaying over and over again -

"Weak man, are you struggling?"

Ellie saw that the girl in the video had long hair like her, a nice voice, and firm words, which made her instinctively want to believe and ask for help. That's why Qiao Suisui saw the video now.

Qiao Suisui looked at the girl in the picture with pity in her eyes. She looked at Luka and asked, "So the big shadow that Ellie mentioned is the brown bear orc?"

Luka nodded.

"So what did you mean when you said that this matter was also related to Ash?"
