I Have Infinite Skill Points

Chapter 337: The Tragic Kingdom of Ice and Snow


"What should we do? The aid to the Kingdom of Ice and Snow is about to start. If this happens…" Sun Xing was immediately sweating profusely from anxiety. However, he was the only one in the room who seemed anxious.

Researchers who did not understand the significance of the situation naturally would not feel anything, while a person like Vice President Han, who had weathered many storms, could keep his composure. It was only someone like Sun Xing, who knew something about the severity but did not fully understand, who was most on edge.

Vice President Han slowly turned to look at Wang Lan, a youth of only eighteen, but one whom Vice President Han had to take seriously.

"Wang Lan, what are your thoughts?"

"What else can I think? Just make another vaccine."

"But what if the virus mutates again?" Sun Xing asked anxiously.

"Then we make another one!"

The mutation of Star Martial Toxins is an objective reality that Wang Lan cannot prevent. The whole world's research on Star Martial Toxins is still in its embryonic stage. Do you expect our current technology to stop a Star Martial Toxin from mutating? Even ordinary viruses can't be stopped from mutating.

"The mutation of Star Martial Toxins is not an exception; a large portion of Star Martial Toxins will mutate. However, the mutation of Star Martial Toxins is different from the random mutation of traditional viruses. If we consider Star Martial Toxins as a form of Star Martial Skill, then their mutation is akin to different stages of increasing power.

Every time a Star Martial Toxin mutates, its lethality also erupts. For example, Test Subject Five, even after being injected with a similar vaccine, was quickly overcome by the mutated Star Martial Toxin." Vice President Han, with his wealth of experience, managed to invigorate everyone with his words, similar to a shot of adrenaline, dispelling their gloom.

"Normally, mutable Star Martial Toxins mutate two to four times. In the past, the standard procedure was to develop an antidote for each mutation and inject the corresponding antidote after detecting the Star Martial Toxin mutation. We can use the same approach."

"Creating a vaccine for a mutated strain is not difficult, but we just don't know which mutation this is."

"The mutation of Star Martial Toxins does not have a time limit. It is in its initial form at the beginning, but mutation only triggers when it encounters difficulties during the conquest process. So, the first form is always the initial form.

The test subjects just underwent a toxin experiment. Since they had all been injected with the vaccine, the virus realized it was having difficulty conquering and thus mutated. It should now be on its second mutation."

"Is that so? Vice President Han, you are indeed like the North Star of the Medical Star Martial World. With you in charge, we can feel at ease." Sun Xing was quick to flatter him.

"When it comes to Star Martial Toxins, Wang Lan is the authority."

At this moment, Wang Lan was swiftly editing the new Star Martial Toxin vaccine. Because the Star Martial Toxin was a mutation based on the original, only parts of the new vaccine needed changes; the majority could still be used.

"Fax it over," Wang Lan said in haste the moment he put down his pen.

BEEP BEEP BEEP... In the president's office of Jiayi Biotech Company, the pretty secretary connected the fax and took out the document from the machine.

"BXG008 Star Martial Toxin vaccine? Type B?"

"What has been sent from the Star Martial Academy of Modu City?"

"The vaccine samples were just delivered, and now, less than two hours later, Type B has arrived."

Wang Qi took the paper and looked at it closely, her eyes twinkling. "A mutated toxin. The BXG008 virus has mutated."

Within less than three hours, the new vaccine was delivered by helicopter to the academy, where another round of experiments was performed. The virus mutated again, and then Wang Lan wrote another vaccine.

Although this war had no smoke of gunpowder, it made many people feel the pressure and tension. A single mutation might be manageable. However, with four consecutive mutations, if one were to use the traditional method of making antidotes, it would require twenty-four hours of non-stop work. Even then, one couldn't expect to produce an antidote for all four mutations in less than seven days.

But Wang Lan managed to produce five vaccines in one day. Jiayi Biotech couldn't even manufacture them at half the speed Wang Lan was editing them.

Han Gongting is like the North Star of the Medical Star Martial World, but Wang Lan is the needle that stabilizes the sea of Star Martial Toxins.

Everyone's hearts gradually settled, except for those of the few test subjects. Apart from Test Subject Five, who had been killed first by the mutated toxin, the rest of the trials were performed on animals.

But they watched as batch after batch of test animals, covered with white cloths, were carried out. Each time, they felt they could be next.

"Congratulations, Host, for developing a set of vaccines for the mutated Star Martial Toxins! Awarding 50,000 experience points and 10,000 skill points!"

After experiencing seven mutations, Wang Lan had edited the eighth Star Martial Toxin vaccine, and a long-awaited reward alert came. Wang Lan let out a light sigh of relief; finally, he had sorted it out.

No wonder no country dared to take on the aid request of the Kingdom of Ice and Snow. Bloody hell, it was because of the mutated Star Martial Toxins. Without Wang Lan developing vaccines, no matter how many people went, they would all be brought to their knees.

Of course, the rewards provided by a Star Martial Toxin that had mutated seven times were quite delightful: 50,000 experience points and 10,000 skill points. At this moment, Wang Lan felt an impulse. Maybe I shouldn't go to the Kingdom of Ice and Snow? Should I hunker down in the rear instead and develop vaccines for them? I could settle one in an entire day, level up in ten days, and then go gallivanting around once I reach the Galaxy Stage?

Of course, Wang Lan could only think about it in secret. Immediately after, Sun Xing came scurrying over with the second sample of Star Martial Toxins.

"Director Sun, it's already twelve o'clock," Vice President Han said as he glanced at the clock indifferently.

"What? So soon?"

Not just Sun Xing, but nearly everyone had lost track of time. It seemed like just a moment ago, but they had already been working continuously for over ten hours.

"Let's call it a day, everyone. We'll work again tomorrow. You must all be hungry, right? Supper is on me."

Five types of samples were brought back from the Kingdom of Ice and Snow, and it was not only Jade Country that formed the survey team. However, after a few days, only Jade Country had confirmed they would come to aid.

What demonstrates the bearing of a great nation? What illustrates the grace of a great power?

Well, that was what the Jade Country news media touted.

Wang Lan had been busy for six straight days, producing a set of Star Martial Toxin vaccines almost every day. To be honest, the vision of the scientists who went to inspect the Kingdom of Ice and Snow was indeed sharp, as they had picked out the most difficult ones at a glance.

The sixth day was Wang Lan's preparation time. After all, it was his first time going abroad on a mission, and he was a bit excited, so he went on a big shopping spree at the supermarket.

"Wang Lan, I can tolerate you buying replacement clothes, and even getting some local souvenirs to exchange for their local specialties. But what's with buying so many compressed biscuits, canned foods, and instant noodles? We're going there to help, and we're considered honored guests in the Kingdom of Ice and Snow. Are you worried there won't be food to eat?" Yu Ruoyun looked at Wang Lan's overflowing shopping cart with a speechless expression.

Yu Ruoyun was a woman, and a love for shopping is often considered a woman's nature. This trait is said to originate from ancient times when women were responsible for gathering food, evolving over time. However, loving to shop didn't necessarily mean loving to go to the supermarket.

Yu Ruoyun bumped into Wang Lan at the school gate. When she found out he was going shopping, she happily requested to go along. But now, it seemed as though Wang Lan was dragging her there.

"What if their food doesn't agree with our stomachs? I asked the seniors, and they said one must always bring some food. You never know what kind of dark cuisine you'll be served as an esteemed guest in the country you're aiding.

"Like our neighbors in India; when a support team came back the year before last, just mentioning them made them feel nauseous. Or the aid teams to South Africa—have you heard of the insect feast? No? What about braised great ape, or grilled monkey?"

Yu Ruoyun turned pale after Wang Lan's rant, snorted coldly, and rolled her eyes at him. She silently picked up a bag of bread, thought for a moment, then grabbed three more bags.

"Ruoyun, bread tastes good but takes up too much space. Compressed biscuits and instant noodles are better. They stave off hunger."

"Consider it my diet," Yu Ruoyun responded coldly.

The aid team, comprising students and teachers, totaled one hundred and twenty people and utilized a large passenger plane—an indulgence comparable to that of tycoons. Therefore, each student brought a fair amount of luggage, making Wang Lan's two large bags not seem out of the ordinary.

The team was a mix of teachers and students, generally one teacher leading three students. The teachers were all at the Star Sea Stage, with most of the students at the Galaxy Stage. The deployment of thirty Star Sea Stage cultivators, along with the Galaxy Stage students, was more than enough to besiege a city.

But that wasn't the full extent of the relief forces. In addition to the elites from the Star Martial Academy of Modu City, there were also one thousand volunteer soldiers from the Star Martial Army, dispatched from the northwestern military region, expected to arrive a day later than Wang Lan's group.

On the plane, the leading teachers briefed the students about the situation in the Kingdom of Ice and Snow. After all, this country was not well-known. If the last twenty years for Jade Country had been a history of thrilling ascendancy, then the figures for the Kingdom of Ice and Snow had been in complete contrast.

The Kingdom of Ice and Snow was located to the northwest, with a territory only as large as three cities of Jade Country. Twelve years ago, when the Kingdom of Ice and Snow was known as the "City of Beauty," the total population was just seven million; now, having four million would be considered decent.

Twelve years ago, the Kingdom of Ice and Snow ranked among the top three in the global happiness index, a country as beautiful as a dream. But all of this was destroyed by the sudden emergence of Different Dimensional Spaces.

In such a tiny country, five large Different Dimensional Spaces appeared. Each Different Dimensional Space was swarming with Poisonous Beasts, numbering over an astonishing one hundred thousand in each.

If it had been any other small country, it would have undoubtedly been obliterated. It's truly amazing that the Kingdom of Ice and Snow endured for twelve years under such hellish conditions, managing to hang on until Wang Lan made his timely appearance.

It must be said, the Kingdom of Ice and Snow's persistence to survive exceeded the imagination of many countries around the world. Their desperate struggle to live and their tenacity left the students genuinely feeling that if they didn't lend a hand, they would be overcome with guilt.

Moreover, the five Different Dimensional Spaces were extremely troublesome, distributed in five directions of the Kingdom of Ice and Snow, virtually surrounding the entire country. The only way to enter the Kingdom of Ice and Snow was by airplane.

Originally, the Kingdom of Ice and Snow planned to relocate their entire population five years ago, but no country in the world was willing to take them in. Jade Country is vast and rich in resources. However, there was a problem: the races were different. What if the influx of these millions of Caucasian descendants turned the bloodline of Huaxia white or their eyes green?

White Eagle Country flatly refused. They only welcomed talent, not refugees. The Polar Bear Nation was itself in a precarious situation and didn't even respond. When three of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council didn't accept them, no other country could manage to accommodate them.

Eventually, the application was left unsettled, and the Kingdom of Ice and Snow continued to gasp for breath under the teeth and claws of the Exotic Beasts for another five years.
