Chapter 603: Deep Mountain Research Institute
"Split up?" After hearing Qin Yi's words, Hawkeye asked tentatively, with a hint of provocation.
Qin Yi knew that Hawkeye wasn't actually trying to provoke, but was asking if he could handle it. Because there are too many people in this village, and the place is not small, it is better to identify survivors and act as quickly as possible, so two people have to act separately.
However, the premise is that both of them are capable of dealing with possible situations.
Hawkeye is definitely able to deal with the situation here now, and the key is Qin Yi. It's been so long since he's been retired, and he hasn't been "active" for a few days, so Hawkeye asked this to ask if he was capable of coping.
"Hmph, don't underestimate me. Qin Yi replied with a smile, "Although I am a rabies patient, I still have this ability." ”
"Also, you won't get infected anyway. Hawkeye snorted coldly, "I believe that even if you regress, you won't be killed by a group of mindless ordinary people." ”
Qin Yi smiled, and then suddenly fell silent, as if he was thinking about something.
"What's wrong? what's in mind?" Hawkeye asked, frowning.
"You say 'you won't be infected anyway'. Qin Yi muttered: "Indeed, our trained agents are really too difficult for ordinary people to kill, and they won't get sick or be poisoned. ”
Hawkeye nodded in agreement: "And the reaction is fast, the physical ability is strong, and with the support of high-tech equipment, even bullets can't kill us." At present, the majority of the Order's agents die during the training period and the initial internship period, and the mortality rate is less than 10% after the training is completed. ”
"Right?" Qin Yi replied, "So, I was thinking that if they designed a virus that could only infect us agents who had taken drugs to strengthen our bodies, that would be the easiest way to do it." ”
"Hmm......" Hawkeye hesitated, "I'm not sure if this is possible, after all, we are still human at heart, just stronger than normal humans, and genetically perfect." I don't think there's any virus that can only infect us and not the average human being. If we are infected, then all of humanity will be infected. ”
Qin Yi shook his head: "You are mistaken, the reason why our genes are perfect is because ordinary humans only have twenty-three pairs of chromosomes, while we have twenty-four pairs. Suppose there is a virus that specifically targets this twenty-fourth pair of chromosomes......"
Hawkeye was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you mean that the code that Shakespeare guy gave you, the '24', could it be that?
"yes, but it also came to me suddenly. Qin Yi replied, "Perhaps, that prisoner of mine is just a trick, their real purpose is to test and develop this virus, so as to wipe out our Dragon Organization agents." ”
"So, what's the point of that combination virus?" Hawkeye continued, "Indeed, if the Scales Rebellion does this, they can directly achieve their goal, get rid of the Dragon Order, and then control the balance of this world themselves. But what's the point of the A-virus they planted before?"
"I think we might be thinking wrong, that virus is not a combination of A and B. Qin Yi thought and said.
"......" Hawkeye also seemed to think of something, although he was wearing a mask Qin Yi couldn't see his expression, but he must have remembered some previous mission. However, Hawkeye didn't say it, because now that Qin Yi has been retired for too long, he is no longer suitable for such a confidential mission, I am afraid that what Hawkeye knows must be some very dangerous information.
"Anyway, let's get this mission done first and see if we can find something. Hawkeye said lightly.
Qin Yi nodded, then held the gun and pointed to the left, motioning for him to check over there, Hawkeye nodded in response, and then cautiously leaned to the right. The village was dead at this point, but a lot of rapid wheezing could be heard.
"It's really like a zombie in Resident Evil. Qin Yi thought to himself with some self-deprecation, raising his gun and groping forward. After coming to the village, the fog dissipated a lot, but it still had a certain effect, and the visibility was not very high.
A sensible approach is to avoid rabies patients, and then prioritize searching the vicinity of the house to see if there are survivors, and if there are survivors, dispose of the infected people nearby to make sure they are safe.
Therefore, Qin Yi cautiously groped forward from the periphery, while observing the infected people who appeared on the road.
In normal times, the infected seem to be in a state of confusion, leaning against the wall in a daze, twitching and shaking slightly, but there are also infected people wandering around. Qin Yi guessed that he might be foraging. Because these infected people are not dead, they have only lost their basic knowledge because of rabies, but as long as they are alive, the need for food is definitely there.
So, when they are hungry, the infected will go around searching for prey, and then when they are full, they will rest like wild animals. It is possible that some infected people are still sleeping in hidden places.
However, even if they were infected with rabies, these people were just human beings, and their perception ability was only in the category of human beings, so as long as Qin Yi was careful, these infected people would not find him.
Qin Yi quietly touched the back of a wooden house, and then checked the inside of the house, and it was pitch black and he didn't know if there was anyone.
So, he pressed lightly on the doorknob and tried to push it, and the door was locked.
Qin Yi frowned, he couldn't make a sound at this time, so he put the gun away, then took out a lock pick, and tinkered with it on the door lock, a soft "click" sounded, Qin Yi took out the gun and carefully pushed open the door and poked over.
The room was pitch black, and there was no movement, so Qin Yi paused, ready to wait for his eyes to adjust to the darkness.
But at this moment, there was a sudden roar of light kisses behind him, and he was startled and immediately turned around, but an infected person had already pounced from the darkness and opened his mouth to bite him.
The two were so close that they had to raise their hands to block, and the other party bit him on the arm.
This team uniform is designed to be bulletproof, but the defensive effect against melee attacks and slashing attacks is very poor, so the other party bit down this bite, Qin Yi only felt a hot pain in his arm, and immediately gasped.
He swung the butt of his rifle and smashed it on the infected's forehead, and the patient fell backwards with a wail, and then made a loud noise. Qin Yi didn't have time to check whether his arm was injured, and hurriedly retreated through the back door.
The noise made by the infected person alarmed the other infected people, so the infected people surrounded them one after another, rushed into the cabin, and then found Qin Yi who had exited through the back door, and roared in unison and pounced on him.
Qin Yi was not in a hurry, raised his gun and fired two shots in the legs of the two people in front, the two infected people fell to the ground with a scream, and then tripped the infected people at the back door, and these people immediately fell into a ball.
So, Qin Yi seized this opportunity and ran to the other side of the village, and a large group of those infected people, not to mention about twenty people, continued to crawl towards him frantically in the wooden house, Qin Yi sped up to throw these infected people away.
However, when he had come to the edge of the second house after running some distance, a young man of about sixteen or seventeen years of age suddenly appeared in front of him, who seemed to be a healthy man.
He didn't understand the Latvian language he spoke, but they waved at him, as if to let him pass. So Qin Yi slowed down slightly, raised his gun at the boy and pulled the trigger, the boy was so frightened that he squatted down, but behind him, an infected person was shot in the leg and fell on the ground. Qin Yi sped up and dragged the boy up from the ground.
"Do you speak English?" Qin Yi asked, but the boy chattered in Latvian, obviously not, just gesturing to tell him to follow him. So Qin Yi followed the boy forward, came to a three-story cabin next door, and after entering, he lifted the floor and waved to him, and then jumped down.
Qin Yi looked behind him, and those infected people were still following not far away, so he hesitated, but still jumped down. This is an underground wine cellar, and after Qin Yi went down, several people came forward to lock the top of the cellar.
