Chapter 374: Extinguishing the Mouth
"Parasitic worms!"
The officer immediately exclaimed, and the soldiers of the security squad, after hearing the horrible name, took a step back.
"Cheng Shao is right, this is a murder, these people are disguised as 'rebels' and try to use parasitic worms to murder Cheng Shao, this matter is no longer something that your security team can manage." Qi Lin said.
Whether it was the murder of the first heir of the large consortium, or the introduction of a dangerous creature such as a parasitic worm that could directly lead to the fall of the entire base camp, any of these two was already far beyond the jurisdiction of the security force, and the officer naturally understood this, and immediately nodded his head like a peck of rice and said: "I understand, I understand - everyone, immediately close the scene!" A few of you, hurry up and inform the heads of the major consortia and alliances, go now, be fast! ”
After speaking, the officer looked at Qi Lin again, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "That...... Excuse me...... Can you take care of the parasitic worms that these rebels are carrying...... These men of mine are inexperienced, and I'm afraid they'll mess things up......"
"No problem." Qi Lin readily agreed, and found a second glass tube containing parasitic worms from another corpse.
A total of six parasitic worms were found on the bodies of seventeen people, a number that even Qi Lin himself was slightly surprised.
Originally, I thought that these people would get two or three parasitic worms at most, but who knew that they actually got six at a time!
If one of these six parasitic worms is accidentally lost...... Then I'm afraid that the entire alliance base camp will be buried for the selfish desires of those people!
The expression of the officer of the security team can be said to be quite exciting, six parasitic worms appeared in his jurisdiction, he has a huge responsibility, and losing his job may be considered light.
However, the most critical question at the moment is how these people got the six parasitic worms into the alliance base camp - you know, outside the base camp, there are five or six checkpoints alone, and a player who comes in from outside has to undergo several inspections, including body searches, before entering the base camp, and there is no chance to bring parasitic worms or parasitic worm eggs into the base camp anyway.
Rebels can disguise themselves as ordinary players to hide their identities, and weapons and ammunition are used by players living in the wasteland to eat, so naturally they will not be banned, but this parasitic worm is different - this kind of thing, if you want to enter the base camp, in addition to the extremely difficult smuggling, there is only one regular way.
That is, in the name of "scientific research"!
The ancients in China had a saying, called "Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles." "For parasitic worms, a strange creature that suddenly swept the entire permafrost tundra, the alliance will naturally find a way to catch a few live parasites and come back to study...... In other words, these six parasitic worms are likely to have escaped from a biological laboratory in the base camp.
At this time, several large consortia that were stationed relatively close to each other had already sent people over, and Ning Han of the Cheng Consortium also came in person, but he just glanced at the glass tube containing the parasitic worm in Qi Lin's hand from a distance outside the crowd, and then turned his head and left in a hurry, only symbolically leaving behind an agent and two bodyguards who were responsible for handling related affairs.
"Weak-hearted?" Qi Lin glanced at Ning Han's back and thought to himself.
"Gotta hurry." Qi Lin leaned into Cheng Yanqiu's ear, "I guess that guy should be in a hurry to destroy the evidence when he saw that we weren't dead." ”
"Hmm." Cheng Yanqiu nodded, and quickly told everyone about the source of the parasitic worm, and then asked, "May I ask which consortium has a research project on parasitic worms?" ”
"Well, I know......" A man who looked to be in his early thirties, but who had a small bald patch on the top of his head, stood up, and all eyes were on him.
He wears the badge of the "Rentai Foundation", a consortium that started out in the medical and pharmaceutical trade, and has also made great achievements in biotechnology research.
"Parasitic worms, the alliance headquarters has issued a clear statement before, and no private laboratory of any consortium is allowed to conduct research, so in the entire base camp, only the Vault Academy of Sciences has a laboratory in this branch, which is specifically responsible for studying parasitic worms, and they also seconded some research equipment from our consortium some time ago."
"Very good, then we will go to the laboratory of the Academy of Sciences, and in addition, please do me a favor and send a part of the armed forces to protect the safety of the laboratory in case the evidence is destroyed."
"Please rest assured Cheng Shao, the parasitic worm has already endangered the interests of everyone present, and we will naturally not sit idly by." The person in charge of the Rentai Foundation immediately took out the communication equipment, and the people from the other foundations also began to contact their troops.
Taking advantage of this gap, Qi Lin locked the six glass tubes containing parasitic worms into a titanium alloy safety box, then pulled Cheng Yanqiu aside and asked, "The matter has been successfully made big by us, but if the alliance finds out that these parasitic worms were made by the people of the Cheng consortium, will it have any impact on you?" ”
"The impact is certain, but if I want to completely eradicate those who are deeply ingrained in the consortium, I have long been prepared to pay the corresponding price - the uprooting of the cancer that has been parasitic for so long will inevitably bring out a lot of flesh and blood. But if I can't give the foundation a complete change of blood, I'm afraid that the day the door of the shelter is opened, it will be the moment when the words 'Cheng Foundation' disappear into history. Cheng Yanqiu said with some determination.
……
……
When everyone rushed to the laboratory of the Academy of Sciences, the entire Academy of Sciences had been surrounded by the combined forces of the major consortia, but as early as when Qi Lin and they were still on the road, they had already received the news - the scientists in the entire laboratory that studied parasitic worms had been killed - moreover, they were killed by parasitic worms invading the brain, and the surveillance cameras in the laboratory were also destroyed, and even the security guard in the monitoring room was parasitized by parasitic worms.
The entire laboratory has been sealed down, but the only thing to be thankful for is that the bodies of the deceased have not been parasitized by parasitic worms for a long time, and the eggs of parasitic worms have not yet begun to be produced in their bodies.
The number of parasitic worms found in the deceased's brain, plus the six in the safe box, and the few remaining in the culture cabinet in the laboratory, adds up to just the total number of parasitic worms used for research in the laboratory record sheet, which means that the six parasitic worms did indeed come from this laboratory.
And the purpose of the perpetrators has been revealed - some of the scientists in charge of the parasitic worm project must have had contact with the person who brought the parasitic worm out of the laboratory before, and the person killed them all in order to kill them......
