Torrent & Virus Specialist
Several bright blue rapids ACVs drove quickly over the dirt road, raising a whole amount of dust, and if Lin Moumou was present at this time, he would definitely be able to recognize that this was the amphibious hovercraft that had brought Fuller
In the bright ACV warehouse, a virology expert with thinning hair slowly introduced the information about the recent epidemic of the virus to the team members around him
"Black light is a complex prion, and all known peacekeeping sites store samples of it," he coughed twice, pausing "Research on black light is highly classified, only accessible to us, and currently mainly in exploitative research"
"The black light spreads through the exposed mucous membranes and all bodily fluids of the infected, but it cannot spread in the air or water, and fortunately it broke out in Binhai City, otherwise with its transmissibility, I am afraid that the whole world would suffer," he said, and he let out a long sigh of relief as if he had escaped from a catastrophe
"Symptoms of infection that have not been more than three hours after unprotected exposure to black light include," he paused, holding up a few fingers
"Flu-like symptoms, high fever, severe dementia in the later stages," he waved his index finger
"After the first symptoms appeared and 12 hours of apparent dementia appeared, coma lasted for about 2 hours, accompanied by persistent fever."
"Then, for a period of time, there is sporadic cell necrosis, which has certain symptoms similar to gangrene. The surviving organizations assume their original functions and are highly flexible."
Hearing this, the group members around him began to discuss
How can this symptom occur?
"Red blood cells greatly increase oxygen storage capacity, slowing blood flow, increasing muscle endurance and strength"
There was no discussion from the management team members, and he continued to explain on his own
"Neurological and muscular systems remain unaffected after a few hours of total organ failure"
"The metabolism drops to an extremely low level, allowing infected people to survive without nutritional intake for more than ten years"
"The high viscosity of the blood allows the infected person to produce only a negligible amount of bleeding in the event of a gunshot, puncture and cut"
"The behavior of conditioned reflexes, the control of motor nerves, and the instinctive behavioral mechanisms are disrupted, and cognitive abilities are severely weakened and unstable. Excessive necrosis of brain cells and inactivity in animal experiments"
He said the characteristics of black light one by one, and each sentence could cause a great shock to the team members
"Infected people are able to adapt to their damaged nervous system, but only to basic physical activities, including standing up, balancing their legs, walking, biting, snatching, and crawling"
He paused and got to the point
"Infected people will attack humans"
"Infected individuals will try to move in the direction of sights, sounds, and smells that can be connected with living humans. If an infected person comes into physical contact with a living human, they will attempt to ingest the target."
"Suppressing a fully infected person requires extremely strong cranial trauma"
"Finally, I don't think black light is naturally formed on Earth, because variants of similar complexity cannot exist in ecosystems."
He lifted his glasses, accompanied by the slight vibration of the ACV, which was the end of his introduction
Before the team could begin to introduce themselves, the peacekeepers, dressed in blue armor and riding in ACVs, interrupted the experts' discussion by shouting
"There is a cluster of infected people in front of them, and there is no sign of T1."
"Approve heavy machine gun fire and carry out clean-up missions"
With the tongue of fire from the heavy machine guns, a group of specialists tried to leave the vehicle while holding on to the ACV's door panels
"Research team, please sit back in your seats."
Although the peacekeeper in the driving force brought a letter of invitation, his words were full of gunpowder, and it seemed that if he waited for a second, he would be able to stand up and kill these people who wanted to die
"Just take a look, it's very helpful for scientific research!" The virology expert's words were full of pleading, and his hands were still unconsciously fiddling back and forth with the door valve
"I've locked the gate, Doctor, and if you dare to move again, I'll shove my troll in your mouth!"
Warned by the peacekeepers, the expert ignored him, and just sat back on the leather cushion of the ACV sullenly, accompanied by the sound of torn cloth-like gunfire, strings of orange-yellow bullets shot into the infected like wheat, and the broken limbs adhered to the black and red sticky blood flying sideways
Seeing this scene, the peacekeepers who despised these white coats were a little relieved, and he decided that he must apply for a machine gun position on his next mission, as long as he can't see it, he won't be upset
"What the hell do you want to do?!"
"Take a look, just take a look"
The doctor crawled down the compartment to the cab, where he could clearly see the infected outside through the reflective brown and black glass
The driver slammed on the brakes, pulled out the pistol from his waist and pressed it against his skull, and suddenly the car shook violently, and the angry scolding of the car behind and the machine gunner was heard on the car radio
He had no choice but to restart the ACV again, trying his best to ignore the excited note-taking man next to him
