Chapter 7 You came in and killed
Soon, vaccines and symptomatic drugs were in short supply.
Not only that, but the crocodiles in Asia and the snakes in the Americas have finally taken effect.
The spread of the virus is not linear, one person infects another person, and the other person infects again, and once the virus really starts to spread, the number of infected people will increase exponentially.
In just four days, millions of people around the world began to be infected, and this is the result of incomplete statistics from individual countries.
This launch of the virus should be considered a success in strict terms.
But it did make Qi Zhen see the limitations of some aspects of this virus.
The first is that when the virus is transmitted between the first three receptors, the virus is extremely active, especially the first and second transmission sequences, and its ability to replicate and destroy itself is like a stimulant.
For example, if Zakka's body inhales the virus, then he is the first series of infections, and theoretically the virus is the fastest and most capable in his body.
When Xhaka enters the second room and infects himself with the virus to others, those people are naturally infected in the second sequence, and the second sequence has a very obvious attenuation compared to the first sequence, both in terms of the severity of the infection and the time of onset.
This attenuation becomes more pronounced when the second sequence is transmitted to the third sequence of infections, and the patient becomes more likely to have a severe cold, but is more deadly than the common cold.
Ironically, the virus is no longer contagious when it reaches the fifth series of infected people.
Unless the virus itself completes its own genetic mutation, or rather, mutation, in order to strengthen itself.
If this is not the case, it is almost impossible to get people all over the world to be infected with this virus.
The 70 percent cure rate is almost always achieved from infected people after the third sequence.
As Qi Zhen expected, the run on medical resources and the shortage of vaccines and symptomatic drugs made the initial spread of the virus extremely simple, especially in Europe, which has almost reached the stage of large-scale outbreaks that are difficult to control.
He Li and Zhang Zhiwen saw this purgatory-like scene through various news pictures, and thought that the three of them were the initiators of this incident, and their hearts chilled.
"Don't be in a hurry to be happy or sad for those who are infected, you look at this."
Qi Zhen put the PAD in his hand in front of the two of them and said lightly.
The two of them watched intently, and the expressions on their faces instantly became very exciting.
"Why is that?!" He Li exclaimed.
"That's the problem the system gives us." Qi Zhen said with a sigh.
On the map, the world is still a healthy green color, and there is no change at all.
"Can I understand that the virus we developed and released is not the C virus as the system says?" Zhang Zhiwen asked.
Qi Zhen nodded.
Sure enough, thinking inertia is harmful, and the team enters the game, and the task given by the system is to infect the C virus to every corner of the world.
And it just so happens that the characters of the three people are the developers of the virus.
They naturally thought that the virus developed by the company at that time was the C virus, and as a result, they were busy for a long time, but in fact, they were just spinning in place.
"What the hell is the C virus?" He Li asked.
Qi Zhen shook his head, where did he know
So much more.
"Then you release this virus without knowing it, isn't this a matter of carelessness?" He Li's voice trembled a little, and you can imagine the unrest in her heart.
"Well, it's just a matter of taking human life." Qi Zhen nodded.
"If everyone in the world dies from this virus, isn't that one of the ways to solve this problem?" Qi Zhen asked rhetorically.
"I don't understand what you mean." He Li looked at Qi Zhen's eyes, and there was some fear in her heart.
"Need I tell you more? If the world's 6 billion people can die 5.9 billion through this unknown virus, then we need to infect only 100 million with the C virus, and if 5.99 billion die, then we need to infect only 10 million people, that's the reason. Qi Zhen said.
"Are you a demon?" He Li said.
"I just want to get the job done, that's all." Qi Zhen said.
"Maniac." Zhang Zhiwen said.
Qi Zhen didn't answer.
Under the influence of European religion and the media rendering, the virus developed by Qi Zhen Company has a resounding name - divine punishment.
More people began to disbelieve in the role of medicine and began to seek the help of faith instead.
As a result, the spread of the virus became more rapid.
The general trend in Europe, the dust has settled.
In the Americas, and the United States to be precise, the spread of the virus is not as easy as imagined.
A better health care system, coupled with the experience of Europe, the state governments that have begun to tightly control the transmission of the virus, and the differences in infections caused by different ethnic groups, so that even if the situation has become very serious, it still seems to be orderly on the surface, and it has not caused the chaos of Europe.
This is where He Li's knowledge of economics comes in handy.
And it was only at this time that she really understood why Qi Zhen made so much money selling vaccines and symptomatic medicines.
He Li's mission is to take the money and snipe at the U.S. stock market.
Finance is included in the realm of economics, and the two are closely related, and the ultimate goal of Ho's mission is to bring unemployment to a frightening level in the United States.
This logic is somewhat similar to the way the United States did it during World War II, making money by selling weapons, and then using the money to produce weapons and then selling them, as long as you are still at war, I will make a lot of money, and even control the world economy.
Qi Zhen took the medicine according to the prescription, but this time the victim became the United States itself.
It turns out that as long as the power is big enough and the money is enough, you can do whatever you want in this world.
The U.S. double index has completed a cliff-like decline in half a month, and its market value has evaporated by nearly half.
Those suffering Americans began to take to the streets, becoming impassioned demonstrators and the best source of the virus.
Naturally, the U.S. economy will not collapse so simply, but it will be enough for the spread of the virus.
After the dust settles in the United States, in fact, Qi Zhen's purpose has been mostly completed.
Looking at the exponential and increasing number of infections and deaths every day, Qi Zhen's heart was unwavering.
But He Li and Zhang Zhiwen became more and more silent.
Because it was difficult for them to be as cold-blooded as Qi Zhen, and they didn't understand why Qi Zhen was doing this
。
It's not a C virus!
Group companies are also beginning to be infected, and they are spreading all over the world.
The number of infected people is increasing, and gradually, the production of vaccines and symptomatic drugs is affected, and the number of products produced is decreasing, becoming less and less.
As a result, the number of people infected by the virus has increased.
Demonstrations began to erupt around the world, and production stoppages became the norm, as if everyone's lives were about to be lost under the influence of the pandemic.
To add insult to injury, the virus has finally mutated itself, and as a direct result of this mutation, the company's vaccine has lost its effectiveness.
On this day, Qi Zhen and the three of them have been in this game for two months.
The so-called "human virus immunity" program that He Li swore in front of the camera two months ago now looks like a joke.
Qi Zhen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
There is no one medicine that can prevent all viruses in the world, and if there is, it should not exist in this world.
Xhaka still doesn't know that he is the virus's Patient Zero, and during the few days he was in a coma, the company conducted exhaustive research on him, implanted a state-of-the-art tracking system in his body, and his every move was under Qi Zhen's watchful eye.
The reason given to him by the company was that the wrong person had been arrested.
He was a child of the group and was ruled out of coup suspicion.
In order to compensate him, the company gave him a chance to take a special plane to Europe, and all the expenses were borne by the company, and he could play as long as he wanted.
As for the purgatory-like scene before, the company explained that it was doing biological experiments, and it had nothing to do with him, and he was a very lucky person.
Qi Zhen didn't inquire about the specific process, anyway, Liu Wenchao was in charge of the overall situation.
Xhaka is now playing around Europe, like a grim reaper, walking through patches of healthy land without knowing it, and the money in his bank card is enough for him to enjoy it for the rest of his life.
He thought the company was trying to compensate him for what he had done.
Of course, this is just what the company made him think.
Everywhere you go, there is no life.
On this day, he was invited to another country to admire the wonders of nature, and then came to the airport, where on the tarmac he saw heavily armed researchers and seemed to finally understand something.
Xhaka was taken to Central Asia to continue his journey of spreading the virus, and Europe no longer needed him.
"So what are we going to do now?" He Li was in the office, looking at Qi Zhen, her attitude was numb.
"Now, wait." Qi Zhen said.
"What are you waiting for?" He Li asked.
"Wait for the C virus to appear." Qi Zhen replied.
"Are you so sure that the C virus will jump out of front of us like this?" He Li asked incredulously.
"Sure, otherwise what's the point of us playing this game, we didn't come in and kill people." Qi Zhen said as a matter of course.
"But I feel like you're here to kill someone." He Li said.
"It's not wrong to say that, anyway, I have seen some things before, and if it were me before, I would definitely not choose to do this." Qi Zhen nodded.
Controlling the scope of influence to a certain extent, carefully figuring out and studying the design ideas of the game, and then gradually falling into place according to the logic is Qi Zhen's style.
