Chapter 12 Plateau Research Institute
The "blue coat" woke up slowly, and vaguely saw someone staring at him. Then he shouted, "He's awake!" "It's a child's voice. Su Xiaoyu heard the sound, glanced back, and motioned for Zeng Tian to abandon the park.
Su Xiaoyu simply flipped her pupils over, and then checked the other wounds that were bandaged.
"Brother Zeng, he's fine, he should be physically exhausted. But when I was examining his belongings, I found this. β
Su Xiaoyu handed Zeng Tianqi a magnetic card. Zeng Tianqi took it. The material of the magnetic card is greasy, smooth and frosted. The dark blue panel has only the word G-L on it, and the words "ι«ζ" are written in Dongguo characters underneath.
Zeng Zhengdong checked the magnetic card, "The institute is compiled, and it seems that the level is not low." β
"The Institute? Brother Zeng, what kind of research institute? Su Xiaoyu suddenly looked forward to it.
Zeng Zhengdong smiled brightly, "I don't know, let's go, go and ask this person." β
The blue coat was fully awake and was shrunk in the back seat of the car, his eyes and hands still trembling slightly.
Zeng Tianqi and Su Xiaoyu glanced at each other, Zeng Tianqi handed over a unscrewed kettle to the blue coat, and asked, "Where are you from?" Can you tell me what's going on? β
The blue coat looked at Zeng Tianqi, took the kettle, and poured it into his mouth, like a person who was about to die of thirst. Zeng Tianqi didn't speak, looked at him and waited for him to speak.
When the blue coat finished drinking, he wiped his mouth. Only then did his eyes come back to his senses. He looked at Su Xiaoyu and Ba Zhuo again. First, he asked, "Where did you come from?" β
"We are from nearby Naple . . . Zeng Tianqi replied simply.
The blue coat lowered his head deeply and said, "All are dead, and all the people in the house are dead." Did you know? My colleagues are all dead. He muttered over and over again. There is no hope. It's the end of the world. β
Zeng Tianqi felt a pang in his heart, "Did you also encounter those monsters?" β
The blue coat looked up suddenly, "You guys also suffered??" You escaped? "I asked, and suddenly there was a light in my eyes." Oh my God, those monsters were horrible, my colleagues were all eaten, and some of the rest were hiding in warehouses. I don't know if I'm still alive... He suddenly buried his head again, "There is no hope." They must have been eaten for so long. β
"Which one are you?" Zeng Zhengdong raised his hand and handed back the magnetic card in his hand.
The blue coat looked at the magnetic card and swallowed his saliva. took it, and it took a long time to sort out my emotions. Slowly said the matter.
The blue coat is called "Marin", which belongs to the Plateau Research Institute, and is referred to as "Gao Institute" in the system. Gao Suo is an accidental receipt of encrypted messages intercepted by spies in the Lost Sea Battle of Dongguo, which lets Dongguo know that his opponent Haiguo is embarking on the development of a super genetic engineering project. Production of a super-soldier concept. After Dongguo accidentally learned of this information, he organized a huge professional spy team to infiltrate ten years ago. On the one hand, Dongguo itself began to recruit experts and students in this field and set up its own genetic research department. Thus, the "High Office" in Marin's mouth was born, which was established at about the same time as Blackwater to train super soldiers. This 31-year-old Ma Lin is a senior engineer belonging to the high institute, and at the age of 21, he was specially recruited to the institute with excellent grades in Dongguo University, a national university in Dongguo. Gao Suo has always been a mystery before, and even the high-level people in the east country know very little. This is because in addition to being involved in genetic engineering projects, the Gao Institute is also responsible for the research and development of conceptual weapons in the eastern country. The so-called conceptual weapons refer to ideas that have already been put forward in the world. However, due to material, technical and other reasons, it is only a field of strategic and tactical level of theoretical concepts. The three irreplaceable strategies of biology, machinery, and energy, "biology" is placed in the high institute. Two other research institutes have been established in Energy and Machinery.
Moreover, in a sense, Gao Suo and Heishui are two branches of the Eastern High-level understanding of the Super Soldier Project. As far as the unknown field is concerned, the high-level officials of the East China put forward the assumption that the arms race should not be carried out blindly, and that the national strength and budget should be reasonably invested. Although the long-term nature of genetic engineering is tempting, who can guarantee that this is not an illusion temptation thrown out by the sea state.
Once a project is launched, it will be resource-intensive. If, in the end, it is only the maritime state that purposefully leads our attention astray, it will not only delay the massive amount of resources. In the end, the arms race is a bad one, and this is the result that no one wants to see. As a result, the project was split into two distinct branches β Gaosuo and Blackwater. Walk on two legs, both on an artificial level and on a biological level. This can not only ensure the output of results, but also diversify and upgrade the Super Soldier project in the eastern country.
As a result, the core academy team led by the Central Council of the Central Special Administrative Region established the Institute of Higher Studies, and a very inconspicuous academician of the Central Council, "Wang Bei", served as the director of the Institute. and Ji Donglai served as the principal of the Blackwater Camp.
Wang Bei is a crazy scientist, he is not good at running politics and is not good at interpersonal communication. But it's especially great for genetics, especially humanoid genetics. This guy often shouts in the Central Council, if it is not for the strict order of the Central Council, it is not allowed to do human or clinical experiments on immature research results. That guy almost wanted to experiment with himself.
Ma Lin is Wang Bei's first generation protΓ©gΓ©, and he has not only inherited most of Wang Bei's research theories in ten years. And he also has a strong talent for human-like genetically modified projects. However, the genetic code is as vast as a sea of smoke, and there have been no decent major achievements in ten years, at most there are some achievements in the identification of gene coding and the recombination of fragments.
Until nearly a month, because of the mysterious information from the center, in the words of the superiors: make bold assumptions and carefully verify them. The High Institute is not like a state-level department like the Central Council, and there are not so many so-called restrictions. A lot of things that were on the verge of getting a big break have finally gotten a big breakthrough. Even the first trial human specimens have already been made and are waiting to be tested.
But at this moment. The first was the arrival of supplies from military helicopters ten days ago, including brand new radiation jackets, including a large amount of X-adg agents. After making a brief explanation, he has not left Wang Bei for ten years, but he mysteriously left with the military, and with it, there are three test bodies that have performed well, including this.
Without Wang Bei, Gao's core work of trying to make a physical warrior has stalled. Just when everyone was at a loss for the second monk. The first batch of the remaining prototypes had major problems, starting with the detection of a sharp increase in the physical function of the prototypes, which jumped almost three times the normal value in a row for 48 hours. This was followed by seven trial bodies, with rapid cell proliferation in the body. Even the emergency injection of a pre-prepared gene stabilizer did not help. Within two days, the prototype had completely changed into a different kind of creature, and these creatures no longer had the form of a human being, and had completely changed into something else, which was named "hybrid". These hybrids are frantically struggling in the culture tank. Then he broke out of the groove and began to kill.
Ma Lin, it just so happened that because of Wang Bei's departure, he needed to preside over part of the work in place of Wang Bei, and it happened that he went to the superstructure to verify the supply and potion problems on this day. When he was about to return, he found that the elevator was locked. One of the elevators happened to open, and a trial body that bit half of the corpse of the security guard rushed out, and it was torn apart when he saw someone. Just when he was stunned for a while, the entire second underground floor had become a Shura field, and the corpses of staff and security guards were scattered everywhere, and this hybrid was not happy, and his whole body was covered with bullet holes and sprinkling blood. However, as the mixture began to devour the corpses on the ground, its bleeding bullet holes were gradually stopping. This is a sign of healing.
Marin was hit in the shoulder by a flying corpse, and he lay on the side of the corpse, not far from him, with a security door to the first floor. Now it's on. Marlin's mind was spinning rapidly, and he quietly moved to the blind corner of the hybrid to gently remove his magnetic card, and gently swiped it on the electronic lock. A soft "drop" sound indicates that the verification has been passed, and then Marlin quickly pressed the "close" button. The heavy gates began to close. At this time, the mixture heard the soft voice mixed with the wails of the undead. I was about to turn around and look at it in confusion. At this moment, Marin crawled through the gate on his knees. When the hybrid rushed over, only before he could stretch out the tentacles on his body, Marlin saw the closed door cut off a few tentacles, and then slammed into the door with a loud "bang", followed by a roar of pain from the hybrid. Marin hurriedly used his authority to lock the heavy metal door in reverse. Only then did he gasp and sit down.
The first layer is the internal interface of the research institute, rather than the internal and external conversion interface of the research institute. Aside from a disinfection tunnel and a temporary storage facility, there are few functional facilities. Today, however, there are many more people here. This is a group of workers who deliver daily necessities. Plus an identification system and two special security guards.
However, due to the locking of the elevator system, almost all external access has been cut off, and the entire area is filled with the screams of red alerts. The system prompts: "Alert, there is a major biochemical leak." All exits have been locked, please contact the highest management authority to release them.
Marlin tried, and found that his permissions could not be unrestricted at all. In other words, all the people here will be buried in this huge tomb without the outside world knowing.
In this way, five days slowly passed, and Marin and another engineer finally closed the channel air outlet of a fresh air switch. Just when they thought they could escape, the irrepressible madness of the first layer of the high school finally broke out, and the first to bite off the throat was an intern on the first floor, and then the crazy foreign workers who had become hideous in appearance gradually alienated in three days. The security agents only had time to kill the three mad corpses before pulling the grenade. The grenade's wave knocked down several of the interns, and they were then pounced on by the mad corpse.
The remaining five researchers and interns took refuge in the warehouse, and the warehouse door was closed from the inside. The rest of the corpses were outside frantically smashing everything they saw.
The engineer who was still on the escalator was dragged down the escalator and held on to the escalator, but he still couldn't change the fate of being eaten. Marin remembered the Engineer's desperate eyes and the blood splattered from his bitten neck. As the escalator broke, the escalator with the engineer and the mad corpse scattered to the ground, and Marlin, who hung in the pipe, watched in despair at what was happening in the hall on the first floor. He shook his head sadly. Climbed out of the ventilation ducts.
Marin's eyes were bloodshot, his throat was hoarse, and he was covered in blood and dirt. Like a mentally ill person who has just come out of a mental hospital, he tells the whole story intermittently.
Zeng Tianqi drove the car and never said a word. Su Xiaoyu next to him asked about the details of the intermediate process from time to time. The group finally figured out most of what happened in Gao.
As he expected, more than ten meters of ground could not completely isolate the radiation of X gamma. Those mutated prototypes and workers are the best evidence, thinking of this time, Zeng Tianqi looked at the reflective coat that Ma Lin was wearing.
"This should be the hospital uniform sent by the military in your mouth." Zeng Tianqi thought silently, judging from the current situation of the high institute, the military did not appear again for more than ten days. In terms of the importance of the high institute. It can only prove one thing: they are too busy to take care of themselves, and even difficult to protect themselves.
Marin nodded, as a genetic expert, the logical IQ was so high, of course he understood that they were suffering from some kind of radiation. And the consequences of this radiation are something that even he has been doing genetics for more than ten years has never thought about. He began to wonder, and deeply denied that it was a mysterious attack from another country. If such a strategic-level weapon has appeared, he believes that in less than half a year, the country will unify the planet. Otherwise, no country can withstand such a strategic-level blow.
However, if it is a natural disaster. The consequences are even more dire. Whether it was the aurora-like light ribbon in the sky that he saw in the past few days of fleeing, or the dead grass and deformed small animals full of attacks along the way, he had actually seen this result, but he didn't want to believe it.
Zeng Tianqi saw his entanglement and sighed, "That's right, it may be very similar to what you think, this is a natural disaster." β
Zeng Tianqi didn't give him time to ask questions, and continued: "The time was about ten days ago. A gamma-like substance, let's call it X gamma, arrives in the solar system. All the mutations in the high place are because of the X gamma. β
When Ma Lin heard this, he was obsessed for a long time, and then raised his head and asked, "Are you from the military?" β
"It's not."
"So how do you know that? And also... Marin seemed to have discovered something, his glasses widened in horror, and he pointed at Zeng Tianqi and his party, "You don't have protective clothing, why can you survive to this day?" No one can be exposed to the rays without incident. β
"Nothing is impossible, with a theoretical lethality rate of 90 percent, isn't there still 10 percent of people who can have immunity?" Although it is ten percent, in fact, Zeng Tianqi knows that there will definitely not be so many people who will survive. Most of the immunized people will not survive to the human gathering place, and they will be reduced to food for the mad corpses.
Zeng Tianqi concealed the matter about the Great Bodhi Tree, as a spy and special warfare soldier, he had too many secrets rotten in his heart.
Ma Lin looked at Zeng Tianqi in surprise and looked at it seriously for a long time. "How do you know? Have you studied X Gamma? β
Zeng Tian shrugged his shoulders, "It's not a secret anymore, right?" "It's true that when they get out of this place, they don't know about the Year of the Monkey, and at that time they don't know how many human settlements are left, but the matter of X Gamma is certainly not a secret. And he just said a little bit in advance.
Marin thought about it, and it was clear that "too, I have been staying in the research institute and isolated, if it hadn't been for a major accident, I don't think I would have had a chance to come out on my own." β
γγγγγγγ
Zeng Tianqi asked Marin, "Marin, right?" How far is it from here? β
Ma Linzheng didn't know how to speak, and when he heard Zeng Tianqi ask, he hurriedly put down the kettle in his hand, swallowed the water he had just drunk, and said: "I don't know the specific distance, in the past few days, I have been hiding in Tibet and encountering strange beasts, making a detour." I have long lost my way. All I remember is in an isolated valley. When they escaped, seven people were trapped in the warehouse. It's been so many days, don't you know they're still alive? β
"I remember that there should have been an army nearby. Maybe we can find an army to attack the institute and get people out. Marin continued.
At this time, when he heard that he could save people, Ba Zhuo poked his head out of the car window and looked at Zeng Tianqi and Su Xiaoyu, although his parents hit him very hard, but after all, he was young, and he soon began to worry about those people he didn't know before. Zeng Tianqi pondered for a while and said, "We can't even determine the location now, so let's find a place to settle down first." As for the search for the army ... Zeng Zhengdong looked at the sunset that was gradually sinking westward. I'm afraid the army won't be much better now; β
