Chapter 117: Wrapping Up the Bioweapon and Returning Home

Qian Xuduo was the first to receive the injection of the superpower serum. After he received it, he was placed under observation for a week. Next were Qian Bodo and Qian Moduo.

Throughout this process, Qian Yaoduo had fully mastered all the technical data, so he was responsible for the entire procedure, and Ashford was not involved. Once the three Mr. Qians had completed their injections and understood the various states of the experiment, it was Qian Yaoduo’s turn.

It was only after his four most loyal subordinates had fully mastered their superpowers that Ma Jun finally injected himself. With the previous experiments as a guide and the protection of his superpowered subordinates, the entire process went smoothly.

Ma Jun stood shirtless, his muscular frame glistening with a dense sheen of sweat that only added to his rugged appeal. Had any woman been present, it would surely have elicited screams. The injection process was somewhat painful, but afterward, he felt a surge of strength coursing through his body, accompanied by a newfound clarity of mind.

"Congratulations, Boss! It’s a complete success!" Qian Xuduo said with a hearty laugh.

Ma Jun wore a genuine smile. He stretched his body slightly, and the clothes held by Qian Yaoduo nearby floated gently into the air, automatically draping themselves over him.

"You’re still the best, Boss!" Qian Xuduo habitually offered a compliment. "You’ve mastered telekinesis so quickly, and you wield it as easily as your own limbs! Unlike us, we had to practice for quite a while to achieve that."

As he spoke, Qian Xuduo stepped forward to hand Ma Jun a cigar and lit it for him.

Ma Jun did not refuse. Although smoking was unhealthy and—with the changing times—what was once a popular habit among the upper class now seemed somewhat déclassé, some habits were not easily discarded. Moreover, for Ma Jun, the dangers of smoking were negligible, and he could easily go long periods without a cigarette when role-playing. Thus, he did not force himself to quit.

Exhaling a cloud of smoke, Ma Jun looked at Old Qian. "The purpose of this trip to the Resident Evil plane has been achieved. There is no need to stay any longer. Prepare the final scene; once we wrap, we leave!"

"Everything is ready, Boss!" Old Qian replied. "It begins in three days."

The "final scene" Ma Jun spoke of was a performance for Alice. In Alice's heart, Jack was someone who had entered her life. For his own peace of mind, Ma Jun decided to kill off Jack, leaving no room for any illusions in Alice’s heart.

Three days later, the grand performance began. Forces from the Umbrella Corporation attacked the desert base. In the chaos, they killed Jack, Qian Moduo, and several others. The base was left completely abandoned. Only Alice and five hundred biochemical soldiers managed to break through the encirclement and escape. From then on, Alice, now unburdened, grew stronger and led her subordinates in a long-standing struggle against the Umbrella Corporation.

Ma Jun, having packed everything up, along with the four Mr. Qians, the biochemical soldiers, essential equipment, and various technological reserves, activated the Plane Invasion System to return to the main plane.

They materialized in the secure vault of a castle on a private island near Australia.

"Transit energy consumption: 20,000. Remaining energy: 96,500. Prestige: 6,000."
"The biochemical plane has not been fully plundered. This channel will now close permanently."

Ma Jun blinked as he read the instructions on the system screen. "It seems I won't be able to return to Resident Evil anymore. Well, the remaining energy isn't enough to continue upgrading the system either." He did not seem to regret it.

The feeling of returning home was always warm. Perhaps because of his newfound telekinesis, Ma Jun could clearly sense a certain inexplicable comfort in the main plane that he hadn't felt in the Resident Evil plane—like the difference between lying on a hard wooden bed versus a soft mattress.

"Could it be because I am a native of the main plane? I’ll rest for a while, then head to the *Deer and the Cauldron* plane to see what that feels like." This discovery was significant to Ma Jun, as it verified some of his previous conjectures.

It was still morning on the island. Ma Jun habitually went to his room for a comfortable warm shower, then met with Old Qian and the others in the castle’s conference room. At home, Ma Jun wore only a short-sleeved shirt, shorts, and slippers, free from all constraints.

Smoking a cigarette, Ma Jun said, "Qian Lao'er, take some time over the next few days to visit the other five planes we’ve plundered and upgrade all the biochemical soldiers to have superpowers. Do not increase their numbers. When the time comes, bring 100,000 of them to the main plane in batches to replace our current security personnel."

"Understood!"

"Also, Lao Si, besides practicing your flattery, spend more time practicing your superpowers!" Ma Jun said to Qian Xuduo. "Share the key points and your experience with us later!"

"Don't worry, Boss!" Qian Xuduo said confidently. "Although I am far behind you, I will work hard. According to my analysis, this type of telekinetic superpower should eventually allow for flight!"

"Boss, I think you should leave that task to me," Qian Bodo glanced at the fourth one. "This guy is too busy chasing girls and practicing his flattery to focus on research!"

"Lao San, your strength is already inferior to mine. You want to surpass me with your new abilities? Let’s put it to the test—let’s see who beats whom in a month!" Qian Xuduo retorted, unconvinced.

"Enough, you two can have your competition. Just remember to help Qian Lao'er upgrade the biochemical soldiers in the other planes," Ma Jun said with a laugh, turning back to Old Qian. "You continue to stay in the main plane and manage our cultural chain layout."

After assigning their tasks, Ma Jun stretched his body and said with a chuckle, "As for me, I’m going back to school for classes! And taking some time to relax and travel."

The four Qians had no objections and went off to attend to their duties. Although they were biochemical slaves entirely loyal to Ma Jun, they possessed their own individual personalities and would not cling to him like pets.

The island was in a tropical region with a warm, humid climate. After his travels in the Resident Evil plane, it was time to unwind. Ma Jun strolled around the island, occasionally teasing the pet lions and tigers, or heading to the sea to swim and bask in the sunlight.

In the afternoon, just after lunch, his communicator rang. "Ma Jun, I'm on break, and I've had my fill of traveling. I want to come see you—send someone to pick me up!"

On the other end of the line was Xiao Hua. She had been traveling the world like a wild spirit and was currently settled in Switzerland, even attending a school to experience life.

"It’s been so long, I’ve missed you to death!" Ma Jun lay on a garden chair, wearing sunglasses, and said with a smile. "Hurry back. I’ve secured a small island near Australia, and life here is very pleasant. It’s just missing a lady of the island. To welcome you home, I’ll have Old Qian send a plane from Junma Pictures to pick you up!"

"Hmph, so you still have a conscience!" Xiao Hua’s voice was joyful, yet carried a hint of feigned haughtiness. "You’ve been living so well, I thought you’d forgotten about me! But don't even think about that 'lady of the island' title."
