Chapter 495: Potassium iodide

Doctors were amazed at the lack of preparedness of the Pripyat Medical Centre to deal with acute radiation sickness.

In particular, the inability to find a large range radiometer meant that the players had no way of measuring how much rad's radiation dose they had absorbed in the previous explosion, and thus had no way of calculating how much time they had left.

The good news is that they did find potassium iodide injections in the hospital.

"The best time for this thing to work is before it's irradiated, but it can work a bit after it's done." The doctor gave all the players, including himself, a hanging bottle and a hospital gown, and they really looked like they were sick now.

And when they were done with all this, the hospital was finally busy, and the wounded were being sent here in a steady stream from Chernobyl, many of them had turned dark brown skin, their whole bodies were swollen, and they were moaning incessantly when they were carried out of the ambulance, and some people became hysterical, kept shouting, and looked very manic, but soon, severe intermittent hiccups quieted him down again.

Zhang Heng and the others also saw an acquaintance in it, the man who had returned to the reactor standing on the terrace before.

His condition was also the most serious of all of them, because he was so close to the reactor, the skin of his whole body was almost cracked, hanging from his body, revealing the flesh underneath, and the whole person was swollen, unable to move at all, and it was difficult to even move his arms.

The people in the ward had to find some vodka for him to drink, and he was able to save the poor man from his misery for a while, but he soon vomited it again, and he looked so bad that he seemed to have little time to live.

The doctors and nurses on duty were also mobilized at this time, and the seconded manpower from the nuclear power installation company, mainly some aunts, cleaned the corridors and wards over and over again.

Considering that each of the injured people at the nuclear power plant had a lot of radiation on their bodies, the player and his party had already withdrawn from the medical center with all the hanging bottles, but instead of returning to the original bus, they found another small jeep.

After seeing the current situation in the medical center, everyone couldn't help but worry about their future, especially Coconut, and the doctor had to give her a tranquilizer to calm her down.

"Now that we've got our potassium iodide, what's next?" Kui Ye asked.

"Of course, it's time to complete the main quest." The repairman didn't hesitate, he didn't want to stay in this dungeon for a moment now.

"Then what do you think about the main quest, let's talk about it." Zhang Hengdao.

"Okay, I'll do it first," what the players didn't expect was that the first person to raise his hand this time was actually the boy who was subdued, "I don't think the situation is so bad this time, well, although everyone has eaten a nuclear explosion, it looks like there are not many days to live." ”

"Your definition of 'not that bad' is pretty ingenious." Kui Ye scoffed.

"No, the front is not the point, what I want to say is that this mission is actually not too difficult, to find the key people, it should be for us to find the key people who caused this disaster, and in this we have an advantage not to forget."

"What advantages?"

"We don't really need to investigate this accident at all, because we are from the 21st century and we have all seen some information about Chernobyl."

"I haven't seen much of it." Coconut yawned, she couldn't feel the pain in her palms and lips anymore because of the tranquilizer, but the side effect was that her other senses were blunted and she was a little sleepy.

"Well, most of us should have seen it," the young man immediately corrected his statement, "What we need to do now is to find out who is most responsible for this accident with the information we have at our disposal, and then go directly to find him, and then we can complete the task and leave this hellish place." ”

"I remember that the accident seemed to be due to some kind of safety experiment, and the person in charge of this experiment was the deputy chief engineer of the reactor, what was the name of Otlov, or Totolov...... Russian names are so hard to remember. The maintenance worker complained.

"Gatlov." The doctor said, "There was also the foreman on duty at the time, and an operator, but I don't remember their names, anyway, the three of them should be the main people responsible for this disaster." ”

"Was it their operational error that caused this accident?" Kui Ye raised his eyebrows.

"No, I remember there seems to be a theory that there was actually something wrong with the design of the reactor itself, and that they were doing the right thing that night." Maintenance road.

"So if it's the second possibility, we're going to find the designer of the nuclear power plant?" "Will he live in Pripyat or around here?" ”

"Who approved this safety experiment tonight?" Kui Ye threw out another question at this time.

"Chief engineer, director of a nuclear power plant or something?"

"Don't you think they're more responsible for this accident?"

"Well, that seems to make sense, but then we're going to have to add names to our list."

"We should put all the suspects on a list, and then sort them in order of importance, and first solve the people who live here or nearby," Zhang Heng said, "In addition, the most important thing at the moment is to find a translator quickly, otherwise the subsequent actions will be too restricted, whether it is investigation or integration into the city." ”

"It's okay to find a translator, but how can we be sure that he won't sell us without us knowing? After all, we don't know Russian, we rely on translators to communicate with the outside world, and now that we are in the context of the Cold War, we may be regarded as spies sent by the Western world. ”

"I'll fix that." Zhang Hengdao.

"That couldn't be better."

With Simon speaking, the players were finally relieved, and the next step was to find a translator. Pripyat is a newly built atomic city in SL, with all kinds of planning and facilities, but there is also a problem, that is, the city was developed because of the nuclear power plant, and most of the people who settled here are also related to the nuclear power plant, either builders or people who work here, and there are relatively few people who work in other professions, especially those who do translation work.

It is not easy for the huge city of Pripyat to find a competent translator.
