Today is destined to be a busy day.

At noon, the garrison department held a press conference, and in the afternoon, the front gate of the epidemic prevention center suddenly became lively again.

Three garrison airboats landed, and more than a dozen heavily armed soldiers placed martial law on the perimeter, and even pedestrians passing by on the street were isolated and forcibly rerouted.

I don't know, I thought it was a source of spiritual pollution inside the epidemic prevention center, and the monster had to be cleared immediately.

Such a big movement was naturally informed of the new director of the current epidemic prevention institute Newcastle as soon as possible.

As for the former director, Grand, was dismissed by the government because of "physical discomfort".

"What happened?"

Newcastle, who received the news, returned from the laboratory, and when he drove to the door, he saw a group of soldiers waiting for him, who also thought that there was an accident inside the epidemic prevention center, and hurriedly asked his secretary.

Noticing the gaze of the staff of the epidemic prevention station, the captain in charge of the operation spotted him as soon as Newcastle got out of the car, and quickly stepped forward while signaling the latter to go to the street to talk in detail.

"Mr. Newcastle, there was an accident in Community 7 and some of the soldiers who were involved in last night's arrest are mentally ill...... The hue value suddenly rises from normal clear to cloudy, and we want to know why. ”

"This is the epidemic prevention center, what you said should go to the archaeological association, haven't we already started to cooperate with them?"

After listening to the soldier's report, Newcastle replied with some surprise, the epidemic prevention center is not a sanatorium, and the increase in the hue value of the soldiers in the garrison department has nothing to do with them.

"No, this time the situation is different, the soldiers with abnormal hue values show the same symptoms as the infected, not only are they hallucinating, but they also claim to have seen another world, the problem is that they have not been in contact with any infected people at all, they are just close to the C6 shopping street, and there is also no possibility of gas infection, because the other soldiers present at the time did not have problems. ”

A brief description of what happened not long ago, the captain turned sideways and pointed to the empty boat docked at the door of the epidemic prevention center, and continued in a low voice,

"Minister Bulwer has given me the order to send all the patients to you, and as you said, the Archaeological Society will soon send a group of people to help, on the one hand, in the hope of finding the cause of the soldiers' abnormal hue values, and on the other hand, in case things do not turn around, these people can be treated as infected people to support the laboratory's vaccine research and development. ”

"These people are all elites cultivated by the Ministry of Security, and they are still legal citizens of Thousand Sails City, aren't you afraid to do this......"

The meaning of the captain's words Newcastle understood, but understanding does not mean that he can accept it, and subconsciously wants to refuse, but the words are not finished and stopped abruptly.

Is there still room for bargaining in Thousand Sails City today?

"For the sake of Thousand Sails City, we can accept the appropriate sacrifice, this is the minister's original words!"

Without much explanation, since it was an order of the highest commander of the garrison, he had no reason to disobey it, and it would be a waste of time to argue here.

"I know, we will take over these people, can we help send them to the laboratory of the epidemic prevention center?"

There is not too much entanglement, no matter what, if you want to cure these people or divert them for other purposes, you still have to go to the laboratory first.

"I need to ask for advice, the situation in community 7 is not optimistic. ”

In the past, Newcastle's demands would have been met, but at the moment the security department is really a little tight.

"The problem in the high street is serious?"

Noticing the soldier's embarrassed look, Newcastle frowned, not dissatisfied with the soldier's answer, but from the other party's reaction, Newcastle realized that the situation might be far more complicated than he thought

This is indeed the case.

......

By the time Virginia arrived at the scene, the planned lockdown had already begun to extend to the surrounding two blocks from the center of the shopping street.

The street lights were already on, and the streets in the snow seemed to be normal at first glance, and the neon light cast by the shop signs on both sides was entangled with the orange-yellow glow of the street lamps, which was no different from usual, but empty, so that the rustling sound of the evening breeze was real.

It's just that at this time, including Virginia, whether it is the government of Thousand Sails City or the archaeological association, there is a strong fear in their eyes when they look at that area.

"To check the situation at the scene, I need to know the general extent of the mental contamination, pay attention to safety, no one is allowed to enter the lockdown area directly, and there are already people in the security department who are fully prepared to be affected. ”

Standing next to the airship, Virginia instructed the Society's investigators that she didn't want any more injuries until the support forces from headquarters arrived.

"Ma'am, there is a request for communication from the Minister of Security. ”

"Plug in. ”

Glancing at the location of the support unit of the garrison, he couldn't help but sneer when he didn't see Bulvo's figure.

"Sheriff Bullvoir seems to be very busy, and you can't be seen when something so big happens in Community 7. ”

Lukewarm, Virginia was not surprised that the minister was cowering in the garrison and not moving.

"I have to explain the situation to the high-level council, I can't go to the scene to command for the time being, I have ordered them to obey your command, if anyone disobeys the order, you can deal with it freely!"

Bulwer, who was in his office at this time, spoke with great sincerity, and he meant to leave everything to Virginia.

A few minutes earlier, he had just watched the live video of the troops that had been sent to C6 Commercial Street to be stationed in the C6 shopping street when they were attacked...... In fact, it can't be called an attack at all, because it's just soldiers killing each other from beginning to end!

If he had been there, would the guns in the soldiers' hands be aimed at him?

With this in mind, Bulvoo quickly found a street corner for himself.

Leave professional things to experts to do, rather than watching from the sidelines, it is better to simply let the branch president of the archaeological association coordinate the overall situation, which is called employing people without doubt.

Anyway, the nature of the Archaeological Society determines that no matter how good Virginia is, it will never be possible to compete with him for power!

"I understand what you mean, there are still a lot of things to deal with here, and I will contact you if there is anything. ”

Virginia didn't care what was going on in Bulvo's head right now, and hung up the communication and walked straight to the garrison team.

First, she bluntly told the soldiers that anyone who entered the blockade area without permission would be included in the ranks of Ouroboros accomplices without her own order, and then began to adjust the lockdown status of the two intersections of Neighborhood 37 and Neighborhood 23 through the system of the Ministry of Security, and all of them were expanded and evacuated.

Compared with the Thousand Sails City government, which has many concerns, Virginia does things from the two aspects of people's safety and how to solve the current predicament, so it has no scruples about the government's face.

After completing a series of arrangements, Virginia returned to the area in front of her, and the Guild's investigators had already completed their initial tests and began to return.

It's just that the conclusions they gave were something that Virginia didn't expect.

"We have tried the test props used in various environments within the association, and even the soul stones you hold, and the result is that everything is normal in this area, and there is no mental pollution at all...... Chairman, we suspect that the Ouroboros are somehow influencing the soldier's mental state, rather than a problem in the High Street. ”

Holding a listening stick to record the test data, the investigator has compared it back and forth several times, but has never been able to find any abnormalities in it.

"I agree with this view, the hue value pollution range in the intersection of community 23 and community 37 is limited to a radius of 10 meters, and the location of the security team just now is nearly 100 meters away from the bone tree, and after only one night, the pollution area has expanded nearly 10 times, this phenomenon is obviously abnormal. ”

The investigators on the other side also agree with the above statement, as soon as the problem occurred in the No. 7 community, the archaeological association began to pay attention to the situation of the No. 23 community and the No. 27 community at the same time, and only the No. 7 community had an accident, which makes people have to doubt its particularity.

Could it really be because of the Ouroboros attack?
