“Then cultivate super heat-resistant bacteria.”

Lu Yue stiffened his neck and said stubbornly: "We just need to collect some thermophilic bacteria that already exist in nature and transform and cultivate them!"

"Don't forget, the demon mosquito is also resistant to ultra-low temperatures."

Shui Ning'er sneered and said, "Besides, there are a large number of bacteriophages in the body fluids of the demon mosquitoes. These bacteriophages effectively suppress the number of bacteria. Now there are no bacteria that can resist bacteriophages at all."

"Besides, the pathogenesis of bacterial infection cannot reach the cellular gene level. Even if it can cause disease to the devil mosquito, the devil mosquito's physical fitness is not enough to kill it."

The dignified God of Plague was speechless after being confronted by an unknown little fairy, and Lan Dian's old face even turned slightly red.

"Ning'er, stop showing off your knowledge and be polite to the old senior."

Wen Rui stepped forward to help Lu Yue out of the siege and said with a stern face.

Shui Ning'er then realized that Wen Rui had arrived, and quickly bowed to him and said, "Teacher, I know I was wrong."

"Master Wen, don't blame her. Your disciple is truly amazing. He is truly a young man to be feared."

Lu Yue said with shame: "I have been practicing like a dog for hundreds of years. After becoming a god, I was too lazy and neglected to study the secret method of cutting the sky taught by Master Tongtian. I have neglected it and cannot keep up with the development of the times."

Instead, the look he gave Shui Ning'er was full of admiration and envy, as if the image of his ideal disciple was right before his eyes.

"This child's success is truly predestined for me. Unfortunately, I was already a deity when she achieved success, so I had no chance to accept her as my disciple."

As he spoke, Lu Yue looked at Yu De and the other five people with disdain, and said angrily: "I accepted such a bunch of idiots back then. After following me to practice for so many years, you still only learned such a small trick as the smallpox method. Sooner or later, you will be eliminated by the times, and the smallpox will definitely be eradicated in your hands!"

Yu De and the other five smallpox gods wished they could find a hole in the ground to crawl into, they were all humiliated.

It can be seen that Lu Yue really likes Shui Ning'er. This God of Plague has been dealing with bacteria for most of his life. Now he meets a talking little bacteria girl, it is like a cat lover meeting a cat girl and is immediately attracted by her cuteness.

"Hey, isn't this Brother Kong Dao? Didn't you join the Western Religion and be crowned as the Ming King? Why did Junior Brother Wen invite you here as well?"

Lu Yue knew Kong Xuan. They had both served in the Shang Dynasty camp in the past. Although they were not close friends, they were familiar with each other.

"Brother Lu Dao, it turns out that the disciples of Jiejiao are the ones who care most about the survival of all living beings."

Kong Xuan sighed, "Just like five hundred years ago, I don't understand the general trend of the heavens. I just want to find a glimmer of hope for all living beings. This coincides with the philosophy of your religion again."

Lu Yue smiled and nodded repeatedly, feeling deeply gratified as if he had met a close friend.

As the gods of plague and smallpox, they are often misunderstood by ordinary people, who think they are just evil gods punishing all living beings by the will of heaven.

But in fact, Lü Yue's plague also follows the basic doctrine of Jiejiao, which is to give all living things a glimmer of hope, which is to constantly temper and strengthen the immune system, so that the immune attack and defense between organisms and microorganisms are in a relatively stable dynamic balance. As the god of plague, Lü Yue does not want all living things to become extinct. Once the host dies, the microorganisms that rely on the host for survival will be destroyed and will inevitably become extinct.

Bacteria are also living beings, and the lives of bacteria are also lives. For Lu Yue, the most ideal state is that the population size is under the control of the plague and achieves an ideal balance with the resources provided to all living beings in the three realms.

There will be no rapid population growth leading to a rapid scarcity of resources, nor will the population die out and all life be wiped out.

This catastrophe of evil mosquitoes obviously disrupted the ecological balance. Even if a single species evolves quickly, has strong reproductive capacity, and has high individual quality, it will inevitably lead to mass extinction due to the lack of diversity.

Based on this idea, Wen Rui didn't have to spend much time persuading Lu Yue to join the Demon Alliance to fight against the Demon Mosquito. They quickly reached a consensus.

The Jade Emperor did not know that Lu Yue, one of the eight gods under his command, had secretly run to Wen Rui's side and officially became a collusion with Wen Rui, no longer obeying the orders of the Heavenly Court.

"Bacterial infection routes are abolished."

Wen Rui made the final decision, setting the tone for the debate: "This time I brought a lot of live samples, so we can conduct live experiments on the virus route. Let's start with blood viruses such as AIDS, Ebola, Magdeburg, and rabies. Give priority to testing hemorrhagic fever viruses, and put HIV last. This virus kills organisms too slowly. Even if the magic mosquito is infected, its life cycle will end before the onset of disease."

"The ultimate goal is to test all known viruses, screen out pathogenic viruses that can reverse transcribe the genes of the magic mosquito, and then edit the genes of the virus to enhance its pathogenicity to the magic mosquito."

Everyone in the seminar room nodded in agreement and gladly accepted the order. They dispersed to various small laboratories according to Wen Rui's arrangement and started a new round of live experiments.

The time spent on observing viral infection is much longer than the previous two experiments. Many viruses have an incubation period. Even if they are really effective against the magic mosquito, the effect is not immediate, and a lot of precious time can only be spent on isolation and observation.

Wen Rui was stationed in the biological weapons laboratory, keeping abreast of the progress of the experiments and devoting all his energy to them.

Kong Xuan became the busiest one. He had to do all the extraction and recovery of living samples in all laboratories himself, including the weapons laboratory and biochemical laboratory that had previously changed their research and development routes. Kong Xuan could only shuttle between multiple laboratories and do repetitive carrying chores according to the requirements of the researchers.

Although he was busy, Kong Xuan did not feel bored. Instead, he was infected by the enterprising spirit shown by the Jiejiao disciples at the Jinling Immortal Sect base.

These people are working hard with all their heart and soul, and their goal is very clear, which is to fight for the only way of survival for the sentient beings in the mortal world that the gods and Buddhas are about to give up on.

Once the catastrophe comes, all things are placed on the altar and tragically become props for the gods and Buddhas to survive the catastrophe. The days when whether one can survive depends entirely on whether God is blind seem to be gone forever.

While everyone was busy developing weapons to control the demon mosquitoes, Wen Rui found a remote biological research laboratory, set up many barriers, and released the witch tissue samples collected from the previous battle with the Moth Witch into a celestial crystal jar.

For safety reasons, Wen Rui wrapped the golden hoop silk thread around the crystal jar, so that he could draw out the Hun Yuan Qi from the artificial Dantian at any time and burn everything in the crystal jar.

Wen Rui took out only one gram of sample at a time, which looked like a piece of meat cube the size of a mung bean.

The diced meat was placed in a crystal jar. After being quiet for a moment, it began to wriggle, like a ball of living slime mold. It first spread out flat, then extended countless filaments, as if exploring the space it was in and collecting environmental information.

A ball of golden mist was introduced into the sealed crystal jar. Wen Rui added fairy-level nano-unit dust into the jar, and manipulated the nano-powders to form micro-sensors and surgical tools, and conducted further analysis of the witch's tissue samples through the crystal wall.
