Chapter 184: The Signal of the Beginning

Virginia never considered the infected to be a patient, not on the basis of speculation, but a judgment she had based on years of experience.

The Thousand Sails government relies on the surrounding low-level satellite cities and the defense line formed by the military to isolate itself from the danger zone of the outside world, which can certainly ensure the safety of this super city to a certain extent, but also reduce people's vigilance against the monsters of spiritual pollution.

Relying on a hue measurement system to determine the source of psychic infection monsters?

This is limited to distinguishing between ordinary people who have been madly invaded into their sanity, and for cultists who are truly involved in mysterious powers, this has become their best protective umbrella!

But the scene in front of her made Virginia have to doubt her judgment.

In the cabin of the laboratory attached to the epidemic prevention center, a prisoner in an orange prison uniform was restrained on a bench, his bloodshot eyes were rolling, looking at the people outside the glass barrier, and his fierce expression was full of panic.

At his side, two mechanical arms were rising, the liquid stored in the terminal needle had been completely emptied, and an oval device on the low table in front of him was gradually closing, and a dark mist could be seen swirling in between.

"How?"

After watching the third human experiment, Virginia finally couldn't help but ask.

Trof's gaze shifted from the prisoner who had volunteered to participate in the experiment to Virginia, and although Newcastle had just made an introduction, he still didn't mean to speak, just gave Newcastle a look next to him.

"Tell me, Ms. Virginia is here to help, no problem. ”

If the branch president of the Archaeological Society has a problem, Newcastle really doesn't know how many people in Thousand Sails City can make him believe.

"The experimenter was injected with the latest preparation of the drug, the core of which is a certain ingredient extracted from the bone tree fruit we obtained earlier, and it also contains some antibodies produced in the body of special infected people, and the final blend was successfully formulated through a certain ratio...... We can only say that we were lucky, we only tried more than 300 solutions to find the right answer, I was ready to accept failure, who would have thought that such a good thing would happen. ”

The excited Trofu did not shy away from some of his previous depressed thoughts at this time, and pointed to the pharmacy next to him, where there were thousands of "vaccines" waiting to be tested.

Now, of course, they're all worthless scrap.

"Luck?"

Virginia followed Troph's fingers, staring at the neatly stacked potions, and then looked back at the prisoners in the cabin, in a strange tone.

This kind of coincidence of a blind cat meeting a dead mouse struck her as ridiculous.

"Of course, we have never encountered such a strange virus, to overcome it, the existing technology and data can not give the right answer, can only be used to carry out a wide range of tests for data collection to further improve, even if there is no way, no one expected to accidentally find a usable agent in the process of testing. ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Trofo's words could be somewhat surprised, in fact, if he hadn't seen the effect with his own eyes, he himself wouldn't have believed that there was a drug that could expel the virus during the test.

He knows better than anyone how low the odds are!

"Trof, you continue experimenting, I want more detailed data. ”

Holding Trof's shoulder, Newcastle, who had been honing in the position of deputy director for a long time, was obviously more calm than this excited old classmate.

"Let's talk. ”

Lowering his voice, he raised his hand and patted Newcastle's right arm, Trove knew that Virginia could hear it, and he was showing his attitude, and the name of the branch president of the archaeological society could not order him.

The two walked side by side to the corner.

Newcastle looked back at Virginia, who was talking to his subordinates, turned to Trove and asked, "What's the matter?"

"The next step is definitely more extensive human experiments, and if you want to collect more data, you need to have enough volunteers, can you communicate with the security department?"

Human experimentation, which was absolutely forbidden in the past, was "rented" because of the imminent death penalty and the urgency of the situation, but it was obviously impossible for this person to complete all the tests.

Trove called Newcastle to the side to talk about it, hoping that the two would reach a consensus on the matter in private.

It is certainly not possible to ask for volunteers from the society, this is not a tasting of the new cake, and even they cannot afford to be responsible if something happens during the experiment.

Therefore, the only option is the portion of the community prison that is deprived of citizenship.

"I'll talk to them about it, and you have to have a special way to deal with it in a special time...... Maybe there is no need to mention it at all, the official government is very concerned about the progress here, and when they know that there are drugs that can prevent the virus, I am afraid that by then you will only dislike too many test subjects. ”

In order to complete the experiment, the government of Thousand Sails City obviously will not spare the lives of death row prisoners, Newcastle is not old-fashioned, for the sake of tens of millions of people in the entire Thousand Sails City, he will not have any psychological burden to sacrifice some innocent people who are already innocent.

The two were chatting on one side, and Virginia on the other side suddenly leaned forward, and Troph, who was about to speak, chose to remain silent.

"Both, there's a lot of hue confusion in the community on the ground, we're going to rush to the scene at once, Mr. Newcastle, I'll get back to you about the issue I mentioned in your office earlier. ”

"Large-scale hue confusion?"

Recently, the term "underprivileged community" has become a key word in every piece of bad news.

"The situation at the scene is unknown. ”

Virginia also just received the news, and her face was equally unsightly.

After speaking, he left in a hurry.

In her opinion, this is most likely a signal that the Ouroboros are about to embark on the next step in their plans!

......

"Everyone, get out of this area as quickly as possible!"

On a street in Community 37, the police car of the Community Patrol was reversing, the police officer in the driver's seat was staring, cold sweat was sliding from his sideburns, his left hand was clutching the steering wheel, and his right hand was holding a megaphone.

The front of the police car is facing the intersection of two streets.

All eyes were on that.

The first thing that catches your eye is the three Community Patrol police cars parked at the intersection, the front lid of which has been hit so hard that the engine sparks inside it seem to explode at any moment, and the fragments of the windows are scattered all over the street, reflecting the staggered red and green lights above the road.

The corpses of the patrol members hung diagonally by the open door, blood running down their dangling arms onto the street, soaking in the dark yellow metal bullet casings scattered around the car.

And this is only part of the tragic scene of the whole crossroads.

There are several corpses lying in the back of the police car, and the stumps and severed arms that can be seen everywhere are enough to prove what horrors have happened here.

"Headquarters, there are heavy casualties on the scene, we need support!"

The only remaining police officer kept reporting that he was the last to arrive at the scene and the only survivor who was dealing with a dispute when he was notified.

It's just that just as he was about to leave the street, he noticed that an empty boat was approaching in mid-air not far away, judging from the signs on the outside, it seemed to be a special vehicle of the archaeological association.

The police officer, who realized what the other party was trying to do, hurriedly got out of the car, crossed his hands high, and then grabbed the PA device in the car and shouted: "The empty boat in front of you immediately withdraw from this area, there is a ...... at the crossroads"

Before he finished speaking, he saw the empty boat skimming the street at great speed, hovering directly above his head.

In the next second, a tall figure flew down in the air.

The long golden hair brought a touch of color to the obscure surroundings, and when the police officer looked up, he saw a well-lined, calm and cold female face.

"Debriefing. ”

The flat, slightly neutral tone made the officers subconsciously stand with their legs together and hold their heads high.

Even when he met the captain in the patrol, he had never stood in such a standard posture, and then he involuntarily began to report what had happened on the scene.

About 1 hour ago, the patrol suddenly received an alarm from a hue detector and found several people with abnormal hue values at the street intersection here.

After the previous incident in the contaminated area, the community patrol team was naturally sensitive to such emergencies, and the alarm was reported to the headquarters of the security department as soon as it occurred, and then all the nearby patrol teams were dispatched to the incident area in the shortest possible time.

It only takes 15 minutes to arrive at the scene!

This efficiency, in the case of Community Patrol No. 37 a month ago, would have been a situation that could never have been dreamed of.

However, efficiency cannot be converted into combat power after all, let alone when the patrol team arrived at the scene, the number of abnormal personnel reflected through the hue value detector had actually reached 12 people!

Earlier, the epidemic prevention center issued an order to each community patrol team through the security department, and once there is a large-scale increase in hue value, it will be determined that there is a special infected person, and the target must be determined and isolated as soon as possible.

Therefore, the first patrol members to arrive quickly approached the crowd on the premise of good protection, preparing to capture the anomalous personnel locked by the hue detector.

A special infected person who was supposed to be weak due to the epidemic turned into a monster when the police approached, and the battle inevitably broke out.

Even so, it is still under control, and the patrol team has long been prepared to deal with it.

Whoever wanted to fight had only been going on for less than two minutes, and the hue value of the police officer who was fighting the monster suddenly increased, and he fell into a state of confusion before he could react!

"A sudden increase in hue?"

Virginia interrupted the officer's debriefing, frowning and asked.

You must know that Community Patrol Team 37, which has just experienced a terrorist incident, has already been equipped with a full set of mental protective equipment, and judging from their ability to fight infected people, it is obvious that these equipment can effectively stabilize their mental state and isolate possible viruses.

Sudden insanity on this premise.

What are the triggers?

His gaze lingered on the intersection not far away, and Virginia observed everything one by one.

After a brief silence, he took out a silver-white metal locket from his pocket and opened it, in which were stacked a dozen or so brown cigarette rolls with a special style.

After igniting it, he took a puff, and the pale yellow smoke rose in an instant, and the wings of Virginia's nose on both sides of the high bridge of his nose retracted, and he inhaled some of the mist, and the pupils of his eyes glowed with a strange luster.

Immediately stride forward!
