241. Challenger
The whole thing is moving towards an increasingly complicated situation, and no one can predict what will happen in the next moment.
In the CDC's lab in Atlanta, researchers finally understood with a hint why the virus had a different effect on some people, and the reason boiled down to it: the soul. At a time when genetic technology has been advanced to a considerable level, and scientists are very skilled in looking at various problems from the perspective of genes and heredity, the various souls determined by blood are still playing a tenacious role. There are different manifestations of gene inheritance and recessive inheritance, but as long as the difference in the soul is stimulated, it can be completely expressed.
When he understood this, Sun Digui put down his research work. Although he has made outstanding contributions to research, and his unbelievable speculations have been verified one by one, as if he has become one of the core of the research center, he now feels that there is more important things to do. Sun Digui understands that once those zombies whose brains are not affected by the virus are in the hands of the Dark Council, it will be an extremely terrible thing if the Dark Council can endure the continuous losses on the surface for a few years. And now, he had the Soul Chaser Scepter in his hand, a weapon powerful enough. When he raises the Soul Chaser Staff, he can very purposefully dissipate souls that have a very low chance of appearing. And in one area after another that has been attacked and destroyed by viruses, the Soul Chaser Scepter can wipe away all dangers at once.
At the same time that Sun left the CDC laboratory, Emile also boarded a plane back to Los Angeles. She even mobilized a Gulfstream business jet to evacuate Zuolin's friends in the United States from Los Angeles, which is now faintly classified as an epidemic zone. The pervasive media has made the current situation more terrible than the truth, but due to the management norms in the epidemic area, all means of transportation are now controlled, and many people have no way to leave. When such a group of friends gathered at Pete's house and turned into an incomparably bright but somewhat helpless "starlight party", Pete had no choice but to try to call Zuo Lin in a hurry. Although Pete didn't know exactly how much energy Zuolin had, he seemed confident in Zuolin's current influence.
Zolin, who was running in the field, didn't receive a call from Pete, but Irina, who was working as an efficient secretary, still arranged these things with Emile. Irina even arranged all the receptions and the right number of business events in Shanghai. On the one hand, it can be regarded as subsidizing the expenses incurred by these celebrities to come to Shanghai, and in addition, there is indeed no such activity that makes these people feel that they are back on the track of normal life.
Zuo Lin, who didn't know that so many things were going on behind the scenes, was driving with Sophocles on the road leading from the fighter test site on the outskirts of Seattle to downtown Seattle. Due to several military bases, almost all the soldiers have been mobilized, and apart from this test site, it is really impossible to find a huge team of nearly 100 people, including Zuo Lin. A team with strange combinations and extremely high confidentiality requirements. In addition to chartering a passenger plane, the team of less than 100 people even transferred another transport plane to carry all kinds of strange equipment, and when these equipment were moved off the plane one after another, those working at the test site couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. They can't help but wonder if these people are here to carry out a sniper mission or to destroy the entire city of Seattle.
Zolin opened a communication channel with the headquarters in the car, and the small satellite dish on the roof of the car allowed him to have a completely confidential line between him and Insula. On this route, Insula was explaining to him what he was now aware of about the spread of the virus in Seattle, and where some experts in the command had deduced that the Dark Council might be hiding.
"The spread of the virus in Seattle right now is not serious, probably because we intervened quickly and resolutely, and we suppressed the virus as soon as the other side started to spread the virus. In addition to the 122 cases detected at the beginning, less than 20 cases have been detected in other places later, of course, due to the fact that there is no vaccine now. All 142 of them are now dead and cremated. The speed of processing was satisfactory and nothing happened with reinfection. Insula's voice looked a little tired, but still resolute.
"Experts have made a paradigm map of the spread of the virus based on when and where these cases are now occurring. It's a little uncertain right now, for some reason, that the members of the Dark Council in Seattle haven't continued to spread the virus, but that's good news for us. After a pause, Insula said, "According to experts' inferences, there are several areas where the people of the Dark Council are most likely hiding, and I have already sent you the map, and the areas marked in red on the map are. The area is a bit large, but I think you should have a way to do it. ”
Zuo Lin glanced at the map, except for a few small red sèsè blocks, the most shocking thing was the red sè of the boss on the map. It looks like it's about a few square kilometers in size. And this is not in the suburbs, but in a place between the city center and the suburbs, where there are warehouses, factories, logistics centers for enterprises, hotels, nightclubs and underground casinos...... This is the place where the most fish and dragons are mixed. Seeing the situation in this area, Zuo Lin felt a little headache.
"Expert, where did you get the expert to come up with this?" Zuo Lin asked depressedly.
Mathematician...... Applied mathematician with the highest privileges. He built a model based on the available data to achieve such results. Overall, this judgment should be reliable. Insula said with a smile.
"Got it. …… I'll find a way. Zuo Lin said. Zuo Lin had no doubt that the information that Insula came up with must have been verified through careful investigation, and Insula was not a guy who liked to fool people. But in the face of a few square kilometers of an area that needs to be searched, it is normal to have some prisons?
As he approached the area, Zolin pulled over to the side of the road. The dense convoy that followed behind also stopped, and Clarence, who was once again following Zuo Lin out on a mission, hurriedly jumped out of the car, ran up and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zolin spread the map out on the engine cover and shone it with a flashlight. The map from Insula looked so uncomfortable on the PDA, and it felt much better to plot those key areas on a large-scale paper version of the military map.
"Clarence, you got this map too?" Zolin asked.
Clarence nodded and said, "Got it, the search area is too big to deal with." Do you want to ask those local soldiers to cooperate?"
"Death to death? Offen, it's probably right here. Zuo Lin shook his head, "It's basically up to us." But...... Call the Marines and set up a looser circle of liaison and fire in the outermost circle. Just in case. ”
Clarence nodded, motioning for one of the guys next to him to get in touch. Subsequently, he continued to wait for instructions from Zorin, who had already fully proven his talent and courage as a leader of a combat team in several previous operations.
"According to the map, you are divided into six squads. At 12 o'clock, 2 o'clock, 4 o'clock, 6 o'clock, 8 o'clock, and 10 o'clock in the center, six places are settled, observation posts, support points, etc., are set up, and close communication with each other is maintained. Zuo Lin commanded.
The order made Clarence wonder a little. What the hell did Zuo Lin want to do? Isn't he going to search? And Zuo Lin's next words dispelled his suspicions, but he was taken aback again.
"Offen is a person with status and status, and he shouldn't be a turtle with a shrunken head. Sophocles and I drove here...... "Zolin's fingers tapped on the location of a Walmart supermarket," right on the parking lot. Inform the whole region that I'm coming, I'm here to challenge Orphein. I don't believe Orpheum can take it, especially since he has a team to manage. ”
With Zuo Lin's cold snort, Clarence understood. Zolin was ready to use himself as bait to lure Orphen out. As a challenger, he has a good chance of turning a hunt into a duel between himself and Orphein. Clarence was a little apprehensive, he didn't know if it was Zorin's confidence or a strategy. But if it were to fight Orpheum in a duel, the others would not be able to intervene until one of them had surrendered. So...... According to Clarence's assessment of the combat effectiveness of both sides, their hunt may end in failure.
"Is this okay, Zorin?" Clarence reminded hesitantly.
"How do you know if you haven't beaten it?" Zuo Lin smiled. "Go and arrange the action. Anyway, the Dark Council won't be the only one to come to Orpheum, and those little miscellaneous fish will be handed over to you. ”
Clarence looked at Zuo Zhu not like a joke, and Sophocles, who is now considered the number one master of the Druid Council, did not even express any objections but looked as he should be, which made Clarence hesitate and seem to have some confidence.
In less than an hour, this unison-simple deployment was all in place, and Zuo Lin drove the car, turned on all the shè lights on the top of the Land Rover equipped with Jīng Liang, and broke into the area where the members of the Dark Council were suspected of hiding, and roared to a halt in the middle of the empty parking lot, jumped out of the car, and let out a long howl in the sky.
With the whistling sound erupted, the surging force of nature in Zuo Lin's body, rippling in a circle, from the flowers and plants planted in the flower beds, to the surrounding street trees, to the well-built or messy grass, and to the stray animals hidden among the plants and trees...... Suddenly, it seemed that the whole area had a burst of life, as if those leaves began to emit a bright green light, and those stray animals took a deep breath of the air that seemed to be much fresher, reluctantly looked in the direction of Zuolin, and then ran out in the opposite direction...... This is what their friends remind them of.
Offen who was drinking water didn't need to replenish his body's hydration, he just wanted to find something to do. As the whistling sound drifted into his ears, Orpheum took a deep breath, carefully screwed the cap of the mineral water bottle, and carefully placed it on the table. He stood up, looked at the crowd, and said, "Let's go, let's go and see, it seems that there is a very interesting person." ”
