In the early morning of February 17, in the office of the epidemic prevention center, Newcastle and Virginia waited for dawn.

It's 5 o'clock in the morning, and there are still three hours to go, and the drugs that have already passed the effectiveness test of a large number of criminals will be on the shelves in various communities in the lower city of Qianfan City.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of the matter, the epidemic prevention center will be used as the command center, and the archaeological association and the security department will be cooperated to monitor the development of the whole process.

That's why Virginia is here at this point in time, and the Minister of Security, who should have been waiting here, is now participating in a high-level meeting.

After nearly a week of working together and working with the Grotesque Studio, the relationship between Virginia and Newcastle is quite familiar, but now they are in the same room, but they have their own agendas, and there is no intention of communicating at all.

The bright lights in the office but Virginia's gaze is fixed on the dark streets outside, and in order to restrict the nighttime travel of people in the lower city, the government has shut down nearly 70% of the entertainment venues in the lower city, leaving the suffocating darkness of the otherwise brightly lit neighborhood.

Thinking about the news that the Guild had not long ago, the elite team sent by the headquarters had been attacked by the cultists halfway through, and although they managed to repel the attackers and kill some of them, the latter still caused them a lot of trouble.

The team that was supposed to arrive yesterday was forced to rest, even if everything went well, it could only arrive tomorrow, but the official government of Thousand Sails City only held a press conference after receiving support from the association's side and was about to arrive, and now that the words have been spoken, it is impossible to take it back, so it has to continue.

Virginia didn't care about the face of the official government, she cared about the intentions behind the cultists' surprise attack on the Archaeological Society's support team.

Now that the number of bone trees in the city of Thousand Sails in another world is increasing, the activities of the "Yin Soldiers" in the eyes of the people are becoming more and more frequent, and the number of victims is increasing at an alarming rate, which makes Virginia have to suspect that the attackers are people sent by the Ouroboros or Zero Organization, and it is clear that they want to intercept the support team.

Although the interception failed and cost them a lot, it is undeniable that they did delay the progress of the support team, and with the official government claiming that they had successfully developed an agent that could successfully resist contamination, there was no guarantee that the Ouroboros would not choose to take a risk before the arrival of the headquarters support team.

With that in mind, Virginia removed the cigarette from between her lips and extinguished it, and instead took out her phone to call up the number she had dialed almost every day for nearly a week.

After a brief ringtone, the call was connected.

"Is your boss's business settled?"

Skipping the pleasantries, Virginia gets straight to the point, she needs a strong helping hand before the archaeological society support team arrives,

"The association's support team has been attacked, I'm afraid it won't be until tomorrow to arrive in Thousand Sails City, and today is the day the potion is released, I'm afraid the Ouroboros organization will take this opportunity to make trouble, we don't have enough manpower...... I mean being able to fight monster souls roaming the other world, we need help, and this is also an excellent opportunity to fight the Ouroboros, and I don't think he will want to miss it. ”

"Sorry, we can't help, contact again. ”

Suzi's response was the same as always, without any explanation, and hung up the phone directly.

Virginia, who vaguely felt irritable from the other party's tone, was also shocked, she knew that the other party's emotions were not directed at her, and a phone call would not cause this emotion, thinking of the fact that the man's voice had not been heard from the phone for nearly a week, then there was only one possibility, and the person she wanted to ask for help was probably also in trouble now!

But when they met on the tarmac, the other party's state didn't seem to have a problem, just from the battle scene, even the courage was abnormal, and he didn't receive the information that a big war broke out somewhere in Qianfan City recently, how could there be a problem suddenly?

"Are you crazy or did I not wake up and heard it wrong, the price of the dosage is 300 federal coins...... How many times do I want to stress that these agents are meant to ensure that the population does not develop large-scale hue anomalies and prevent further deterioration...... Bullshit resource consumption, is there still such a lack of resources for life medical pharmaceutical factories?"

Virginia was puzzled here, and Newcastle on the other side was also talking, and suddenly slapped on the arm of the sofa, and his face, which was flushed with anger, looked a little hideous at this time, and then roared in a muffled voice,

"Stupid! Are those guys' minds choked with shit, and at this time, they are still full of thinking about making money, so they are not afraid of making money to the point of death?"

According to Newcastle's plan, this batch of drugs will be funded by the official government to be used by the people of Thousand Sails City as quickly as possible, ensuring that they have the ability to protect themselves in the next crisis that may become more and more serious.

300 federal coins, compared to the price of other special drugs, is undoubtedly quite cheap, but this is a medicine for most of the people in Thousand Sails City, and the number will inevitably be in tens of millions!

Life Medical Group is clearly interested in the profiteering, and Newcastle knows with closed eyes that the top council must be involved.

Human blood steamed buns, they eat them deliciously!

However, at this moment, Newcastle could only watch this happen in front of him, not only did he have no power to stop it, but even when it was dawn, he had to go out and stand up for those people, shouting for this new product that was destined to be a huge seller, because it was the only thing he could do for the city.

It's just that Newcastle still feels extremely ashamed, and it's no wonder he's furious here.

"Are they going to price the potions?"

Virginia, who was probably aware of the situation, looked at Newcastle with a strange expression.

"Yes, those vampire mongrels...... Putting the price on the drug, a significant portion of the population in the low-level communities will inevitably choose to wait and see, and that is the hardest-hit area. ”

Subconsciously thought that Virginia was laughing at the government of Thousand Sails, and as a member of it, Newcastle felt embarrassed.

"That's probably a good thing. ”

"Of course, those guys are that disgusting...... What do you say?"

Newcastle didn't react to Virginia's change of tone for a while.

"I'm sorry, Newcastle, I'm not doubting the ability of the epidemic prevention laboratory, but I always feel that the appearance of this potion is too strange, as if there are hands behind pushing its appearance, imagine how long it has been since the contamination zone in community 37 was broken, you have not only developed the potion, but even completed the test and started production, is this normal?"

At this point, Virginia no longer hid the doubts in her heart, and continued,

"Now the price of life medical administration, maybe it will make a considerable part of the people suspend the idea of injecting drugs, now there are 10 blockade areas in the entire Thousand Sails City, although the scope of its influence continues to expand, but for the time being, it has not yet reached the level of large-scale diffusion, let some people inject drugs first, if the Ouroboros organization starts, we can see whether these drugs can work, if there is a problem, there is still time to remedy, not to the point of no return, if it is really effective, it is also too late to promote the medicine at that time。 ”

"This ...... That's right, the more you get to this time, the more calm you have to be, it is a matter of the safety of Qianfan City, and there must be no accidents. ”

As the anger cooled, Newcastle had to admit that Virginia had a point, and sighed, unconsciously flipping his phone to digest what the latter had just said.

As the two spoke, the sky outside the office grew darker, and the darkness shrouded the city in a panic atmosphere.

Newcastle glanced at the time on the screen of his phone, suddenly got up and paced to the window, not knowing whether he was talking to Virginia or cheering himself up, and said: "The potion is released, and the support forces of the Archaeological Society will also arrive, this is the darkness before dawn, I believe that Thousand Sails City will usher in the dawn." ”

Crackling!

A bolt of lightning exploded in the night sky.

Somehow, Newcastle, who was not afraid of lightning and thunder in the past, trembled all over, and now he only felt chills.

The pre-dawn darkness has not yet dissipated, and the rain has arrived!

......

In the private clinic, maybe it's the rainstorm outside the window, or other reasons, the atmosphere here is also not good.

It had been nearly a week since Zhu Jue and Ivanka had entered the deep world, and Su Zi and Gu Yinxing still hadn't waited for either of them to wake up.

"Can Zhu Jue's body hold up, he hasn't eaten or drunk for so long...... Do you need to give him some nutrient solution with the equipment in the clinic?"

Holding a hot towel to wipe Zhu Jue's face, Gu Yinxing's mood was a little low, and her fingertips always deliberately pressed the former's face, if she couldn't still feel the temperature and elasticity, she would have been unable to endure such a long wait.

"It shouldn't be necessary, Zhu Jue's body is not very human, and his current state doesn't seem like an accident. ”

Suzi's electronic brain monitors Zhu Jue's physical changes almost all the time, and at this time, he is no different from sleep from the external appearance alone.

"Tomorrow the government of Qianfan City will release the potion, Zhu Jue said before that there may be a problem with this potion, and he still hasn't woken up yet, what should we do?"

Putting the towel into the basin on the side, looking at Zhu Jue's calm face, Gu Yinxing pursed her mouth, sat down beside Zhu Jue, looked at him and said softly,

"The situation in Thousand Sails City is constantly deteriorating, the Ouroboros organization is still active in the shadows, tomorrow is a critical moment, if you don't wake up again, you may have to miss it!"

Gu Yinxing said, staring at Zhu Jue's expression while staring at Su Zi, both of them faintly looking forward to the change in this face.

The results were disappointing.

"He can't hear it...... I'm going to contact Virginia again to get her in touch with us. ”

Suzi raised her hand to her ear and dialed the phone.

Cha~

The sound of leather boots grinding against the ground.

The movements of the two of them were all stunned, and they stared at Zhu Jue again, are they about to wake up?

In the next second, a figure crossed the sofa and walked to Lawrence, who was also unconscious on the other side of the living room, and the two pairs of eyes turned to lock on him, and excitement appeared in their eyes.

As if noticing their attention, Ivanka raised her hand to cover Lawrence's celestial spirit cover, and turned around with the overflow of energy.

"Wait, it's a little bit closer. ”

The voice sounded in the minds of Gu Ginkgo and Suzi.
