181 Success

Needless to say, Yao Yuan rejected Saburo’s insane offer. This was not only an issue of safety but also Saburo’s unique importance. Even though Zhang Heng, Ren Tao, and the likes were exceptionally important to the Hope and were mankind’s heroes in their own right, Yao Yuan couldn’t just add another Whisperer to the death toll for the sake of an experiment.

If there was no other way forward but human experimentation, Yao Yuan would opt for civilian volunteers, or if all else failed, inmates… Yao Yuan knew it was immoral and inhumane, but to him, Saburo’s life was much more important than all the inmates’ combined.

However, Saburo said directly, "I’m sorry, Captain, but before I came, I ingested a sample of the planet’s air and took a shot of the vaccine. In about 30 minutes, we’ll know definitively whether the vaccine is successful or not."

"You?!" Yao Yuan stood from his chair and yelled at Saburo, an angry finger pointing at his face.
