"Don't be afraid, it's really fine." The old man's expression was like that of an evil Frankenstein inducing a harmless child.

Qi Zhenxin said I believe that you have ghosts, who knows what angry things you fanatical researchers will do?

The old man guided Qi Zhen to sit on the stool, and shouted everywhere: "Bring the blood collection equipment quickly, what are you doing in a daze, where is the blood pressure measuring instrument?" Don't watch the excitement from the sidelines, you can do the saliva collection......"

The originally clean laboratory building suddenly became lively because of Qi Zhen's infection.

This old man's approach is probably out of professional habits, in fact, Qi Zhen really didn't suffer anything, just collected blood, urine and saliva, and the rest was to ask Qi Zhen how she felt after being infected, that's all.

The laboratory building was clean again, whether it was Zaka or Qi Zhen, after the virus analysis on their bodies began, those researchers were busy again, as if the fanaticism shown by Qi Zhen before was fake.

To put it more bluntly, those fanatics are actually aimed at the virus in Qi Zhen's body, not Qi Zhen himself.

Two days later, the results of the virus analysis have not yet come out, but Zaka wants to meet Qi Zhen.

"How can I help you?" Zaka looked at Qi Zhen's eyes with a sad expression.

"I've found another virus here, although the power of divine punishment is not small, but it's not enough to achieve my purpose, so ......"

"So you want me to be infected with this new virus, and then continue to spread it in the world as a walking source of the virus?" There was some bitterness in Zaka's words, although the translation software had no emotion, but his expression could not deceive people.

Qi Zhen didn't speak.

Without speaking, it naturally represents acquiescence.

"The last virus didn't kill me, but let the virus live with me, how can you guarantee that this virus can't kill me?" Xhaka asked.

"I'm sorry, I can't guarantee that." Qi Zhen didn't hide it, and she didn't deceive this young man who looked like he was only in his early twenties.

"I guessed it would be like that." Xhaka smiled wryly and shook his head, "These days are the happiest times I've ever had, and if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to eat those delicacies or see those beautiful scenery in my life......"

Xhaka looked up, but didn't see Qi Zhen's face again.

Qi Zhen didn't want to listen to his gratitude to himself, he didn't want to imagine his vision of a better life, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do it, and he was even more afraid that this young man who was full of expectations for life could only become the gun in his hand like this, and he would die after making the best use of it, and then become a spokesman for the devil in this world, and be spit on forever.

Qi Zhen suddenly felt a little bored, he didn't want to do it.

Whether it's the game Plague Inc., or the game itself.

He knew that he should not have such emotions, but it was difficult for him to be completely rational and not be distracted by external circumstances.

Without Li Qiang by his side, he didn't even know how to unravel his heart.

When Zhang Zhiwen and He Li found Qi Zhen, he was in the room at the end of the corridor on the third floor, looking at the sky outside and being silent.

"Are you alright?" He Li and the others both felt that something was wrong with Qi Zhen, but they didn't know where his emotional change came from.

Qi Zhen turned her head and didn't answer their questions, but asked rhetorically, "What's the matter, what's wrong with me?" ”

"Well, the results of the virus comparison are out, we still have to let you take a look, we can't make up our minds." Zhang Zhiwen answered.

Qi Zhen followed the two to the laboratory on the top floor, and all the researchers stopped what they were doing, as if they were waiting for him.

Qi Zhen was a little puzzled in her heart, what did she find, why did she take it so solemnly one by one.

The oldest old man walked up to Qi Zhen, his face sinking like water, but the glint in his eyes told Qi Zhen that they had indeed made a great discovery.

"You do have the virus."

As soon as the old man's words came out, Qi Zhen had the urge to slap him with a big mouth.

Nonsense, with his physical fitness strengthened by magic liquid, who else can do it except for the virus in the game that can make him sick?

But the old man's next words made Qi Zhen serious: "The virus in your body, in contact with this C virus, has undergone a very magical change. ”

"What the hell is going on?" Qi Zhen asked.

"Come and see." The old researcher led Qi Zhen to the vicinity of the virus petri dish, pointed to the thing in front of him that no longer looked like a petri dish, and said softly: "We don't know why this happened, but there is no doubt that there is a chemical reaction between these two viruses that no one can understand. ”

In the petri dish, the arachnovirus plaque, which originally belonged to the C virus, has now become a three-dimensional and entangled tissue under the microscope, which does not look like a virus, but like some kind of meat that is inextricably linked, and the original red and black color has also become a little pink at this time, like the color of ham sausage.

It looks disgusting.

There are so many of these tissues that they almost enclose the entire petri dish, and it seems that perhaps because of the lack of numbers, it is already the limit state to grow to this extent, and it is difficult to grow and develop.

Qi Zhen inexplicably remembered the game called "Torture and Killing the Original Form", and felt a little strange in her heart.

"How did this happen?" Qi Zhen wondered.

It stands to reason that virus comparison is probably to compare two completely different strains under a microscope, and to distinguish the similarities and differences between the two by observing their characteristics.

But in any case, there will not be such a situation where the two viruses will come together, after all, it is not cooking.

"In the beginning, we just did some basic virus comparison, but one researcher accidentally mixed the two viruses together when changing samples, and it became like this." As the old man spoke, his face showed a shyness that was definitely not in line with his age.

"You know, we people are always curious about these things, and we didn't find anything when we first started comparing strains, which were originally two completely different viruses, but they were slightly similar in terms of virus structure and growth patterns, and it could even be said that most of the viruses in this world follow this pattern for replication and growth......," the old man continued.

"Well, so when you found out that the two viruses were mutating together, you didn't choose to stop the experiment, but provided a better environment to observe the changes in the virus, right?" Qi Zhen glanced at the old man, and there was no sense of blame.

"Yes...... I hope you don't blame us. The old man said apologetically.

"It's okay, I'm only concerned about antivirals or vaccines now, when they can be made." Qi Zhen said.

"Actually, that's what I want to tell you next." The old man's voice began to tremble slightly.

Qi Zhen's heart moved, and she seemed to have guessed something.

"I don't know what kind of chemical reaction took place between the two viruses, but after they met, a new substance was produced, which was neither divine punishment nor C virus, it was something that had never been seen in this world, but this kind of thing did not have the ability to replicate and ......grow like a virus," the old man's words became excited.

"Can I understand this sentence in this way, these two viruses are actually drugs for each other, but they are both mutually reinforcing and mutually reinforcing, unlike traditional antiviral drugs, they do not kill each other, but combine to become a new kind of thing?" Qi Zhen asked.

"Yes, but we haven't done clinical trials yet, and it's not known if this new substance is still contagious, or what happens inside the subject, so further testing is needed." The old man nodded, his eyes full of anticipation.

Not only him, but all the researchers in the laboratory also had their eyes shining at this time, for fear that Qi Zhen would not allow them to have this somewhat "excessive" demand, after all, what they wanted to do, although it was still nominally a countermeasure to the C virus, but in fact it had little to do with the C virus.

Qi Zhen did not refuse the other party's request, and said with a smile: "In any case, please develop antiviral drugs and vaccines as soon as possible, after all, the sooner this matter is resolved, the sooner we can make our contribution to all mankind." ”

In fact, both he and these researchers know in their hearts that it is difficult to really apply it to clinical practice as the thing in the current petri dish appears.

But since they want to toss, let them toss, in case they can get something new.

Qi Zhen said hello to Zhang Zhiwen and the others, did not say anything to the researchers who had started to work in full swing again, and returned to the hut on the third floor again.

Look at the sky.

After looking at the sky and the students coming and going downstairs for two days, Qi Zhen still didn't find any traces of games in this world, as if it was a real world.

No matter how similar the white clouds in the blue sky are, every day is a little different, and those students will also rush to the cafeteria because the teacher dragged the class, for fear of missing the canteen meal.

Every day, there will be couples on campus who pass downstairs in and out of pairs, but there are occasional quarrels, and girls cry pear blossoms with rain, like a child.

His mood became even more lost.

"Your progress must be accelerated, someone in the school has already reported the situation of the laboratory building to the Department of Education, and soon you will not be able to use that space." Qian Jiang relayed the words of the municipal party secretary on the phone.

Qi Zhen knew that it was time for her to make a decision.
