Chapter 356: On the Mother Tree of Mercy

Noticing his expression, Yi Zhiyu didn't want to make a fuss, and said: "This kind of fool is everywhere, don't bother with him." ”

Xia Ren didn't say anything, glanced at the fat man, put on an eye patch, and closed his eyes to recuperate.

After two hours, they came to the first transit point, where the plane landed.

The fat man hugged the woman next to him and kept talking, Xia Ren followed him to the airport hall, found an opportunity, and when the other party was about to go to the toilet, he also followed in.

Yi Zhiyu shook his head helplessly, and could only stand at the door of the toilet with Tang Tangtang, giving him the wind to prevent outsiders from entering.

The fat man was just about to untie his belt when he was suddenly tapped on the shoulder.

"Yo, pee."

Xia Ren said, rubbing his fists and stretching his body.

The fat man instinctively sensed something was wrong and asked, "What do you want to do?" I'm calling! ”

"Do you know my secret to staying cheerful?"

Xia Ren suddenly asked him an inexplicable question.

The fat man shook his head stunned: "I don't know." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a fist the size of a casserole, which quickly occupied all his field of vision.

"Taste the iron fist of the proletariat! Litter! ”

……

……

Half a minute later, Xia Ren washed his hands and came out of the toilet.

"Practicing martial arts really makes people feel good."

Yi Zhiyu looked at his watch and said, "The next flight is about to take off." ”

……

……

At the same noon, there was already a faint commotion in Dongpu City.

Last night, the Foundation used a large amount of dilution of the dark water to purify the entire city to ensure that the contamination did not spread, but those who died could not return to their homes and see their loved ones.

The families found out about their disappearance, and although the government came in to help cover it up, it was only a stopgap measure.

Moreover, the impact of the lockdown is gradually becoming apparent, and if no measures are taken in the afternoon, I am afraid that there will be unexpectedly serious consequences.

Housing agent Wagyu Changshou sits on the roof of the outpatient building of the Dongpu University of Science and Technology Hospital, looking at the scene below.

Traffic here has resumed, but the hospital is not open. After a night of hard work, ordinary people can no longer see what kind of madness has been staged here, and how many people have died.

"It's 8,000."

Niu Changshou suddenly sighed.

"To be exact, eight thousand seven hundred and sixty-one."

Said the real estate agent.

Among them, nearly 1,000 people did not complete the mission of hatching larvae, they either died on the way to come, or were run over by traffic on the street, and some were injured and died after being controlled.

"It's unreasonable." Niu longevity said again.

"Who's to say it isn't."

The real estate agent looked at the sky: "But the good news is that only the first and second instar larvae are a threat to humans, and only the second and adult burrower worms can lay eggs, so as long as we can control the first instar larvae so that they can't gather and fly in groups, we will be able to completely eliminate them one day." ”

They only roughly translated a little bit of the main content of "Underground Buggers", and the original "Underground Buggers" had already been delivered to the research room of the headquarters by courier from the Superman Society, and it was still being interpreted in detail.

However, according to the information that has been translated, they still have gained a lot, at least now they can know that the source of infection that causes ** type phobia is from an ancient creature called the burrowing demon worm, and they have a preliminary grasp of its transmission route.

It's just that there is still a lot of key information they don't know, such as susceptible populations, the probability of ectopic parasitism, and the causes of hypersensitivity reactions, and most importantly, how to detect whether people are parasitized by larvae.

These need to wait for the results to be released by the laboratory at headquarters.

Niu Changshou smiled bitterly: "So many people have died, where is it good news, and ...... There will be dead people in the future. ”

**Type phobia may have spread to the whole blue star, and people who have been parasitized by the first instar larvae are almost certain to die, even if it is optimistically estimated, if you want to eliminate this plague, human beings will have to pay at least tens of millions of lives.

"This is indeed good news, and don't forget, Blue Star has a population of nearly 20 billion."

Niu Changshou disagreed with his statement and retorted excitedly: "Human life is not just a number. ”

The real estate agent smiled helplessly, with a bit of vicissitudes in his eyes, and said: "When I first joined the foundation, I was optimistic, believing that everything in the world can find the best solution. But over the years, as my experience grew, I gradually changed my original perspective. ”

As if recalling some memories that he didn't want to touch, he subconsciously clenched his fists and continued: "Many times, we try our best, even at the cost of our own lives, but we can only avoid the worst outcome. Therefore, it is already an acceptable result to be able to control this plague before the extinction of mankind. ”

Hearing these words, Niu Changshou calmed down a little, the anger on his face gradually receded, and the whole person shrugged down again.

Long.

"Ugh."

I can only sigh helplessly.

After a while, Niu Changshou regained his spirit: "That Xia Ren ......"

As soon as he was halfway through his sentence, the real estate agent interrupted: "Contacting him, sure enough, there is still a purpose, maybe you have already seen that he is special." ”

"What the people above mean." Niu Changshou did not refute the second half of the sentence, but said directly.

Hearing this, the real estate agent was a little stunned.

"Plague Scholar ...... above"

If he remembered correctly, in the World Superhuman Association, the Plague Scholar belonged to an extremely special position, and no one had jurisdiction. In other words, there is no one left on the cow longevity.

Apart from......

It seems that Xia Ren's identity is far more complicated than he imagined.

"May I ask, the ...... What did He say to you? ”

The real estate agent couldn't help but be curious.

Niu Changshou hesitated for a moment, and was about to say, when the real estate agent waved his hand again: "Forget it, I want to live for two more years, it's useless to know so much." ”

As if with some regret, he reached out and took out a cigarette, stroked it twice, and put it in his mouth, but did not light it.

Niu Changshou couldn't understand his habit and asked, "Why don't you smoke?" ”

"I'm afraid."

The real estate agent smiled.

Just then, the phone in his pocket vibrated a little.

The agent immediately threw away the cigarette, pulled out his phone, and checked the text displayed on the screen.

"It's delivered!"

His tone was agitated.

Hearing this, Niu Changshou's face relaxed a lot.

"That's it."

He glanced at the city below: "The people's riots should also be quelled." ”

The swarm in Higashiura has broken out and been eaten by crows, and theoretically the outbreak here is over for the time being.

The reason why the two of them haven't left at this moment is to solve the sequelae left by last night's swarm outbreak - how to comfort the families of the more than 8,000 deceased.

Now, the problem is about to be solved.

The two quickly descended the stairs, and a truck had already driven into a remote part of the hospital.

Several support personnel in Foundation uniforms opened the sealed compartment and removed a 3M×2M×2M rectangular lead box from inside, which looked like a giant coffin.

Then the lead box was opened, revealing a dry tree root lying in the box, the root of the tree was yellow, and everything was cracked open due to lack of water.

Niu Changshou looked at the roots of the tree and muttered, "Is this the branch of the [Mother Tree of Compassion]?" ”

Li Wan, the commander of the logistics unit, came over and asked, "Where will it be planted?" ”

The real estate agent thought for two seconds and said, "Let's plant it in the same place."

"Yes."

Li Wan waved his hand, and several logistics personnel began to dig holes in the ground under their feet with shovels.
