"Don't go this time, don't go, you drank too much last night, and it's easy to get into danger!." Yucun held his head and carried a knife and wanted to go out, but Mo Xuan grabbed him next to him and persuaded him hard.

"It's fine, it doesn't matter." Hamura's tone sounded normal, and it would have been more convincing if he hadn't held his head in one hand.

In the end, a group of people talked badly and finally let him stay.

Then the young and strong boys got together and began to discuss the plan of action, and Hood slapped his head and said that the code name of the operation was "Canvas", and they were divided into two groups of actions, Ivan and himself, and Mo Xuan and Cui Shengzhi.

Cui Shengzhi rejected this brain-dead plan, and explained that there are many mutated classmates, but there are only four of them, so they should always maintain a compact formation and not act separately, and Hood's proposal to drive his own pink sports car was also rejected, on the grounds that the rescue should drive a car with a large capacity, because it may be not only Melvin who will be rescued at that time, but also other classmates, and Mo Xuan's family has no food, and when there is a vacant place, food should be moved as soon as possible, so it is too cost-effective to drive a sports car.

Mo Xuan made a questioning expression and said that his warehouse should still be full?

"Your family lacks nothing but wine." Hood was not in the slightest disturbed by the embattled environment, and laughed.

Ten minutes later, the final rescue plan was roughly determined, Hood drove the bridge car in Yu Village, and Ivan drove his own Jinba truck, and after rescuing Melvin, he emptied the shops along the road.

Mo Xuan wanted to hand Hood an NH87, but Hood refused, went to his car and took out a bag containing two long-barreled shotguns and forty rounds of 12-gauge general-purpose shotgun ammunition, as well as a few boxes of small-caliber bullets, which should be the brilliant and extraordinary pistol bullets he decorated yesterday.

"Your family's cultural heritage...... So grumpy? Mo Xuan looked at the swarthy barrel and felt very excited.

"Actually, I'm more irritable~ It's a pity that there is no ammunition, because the ban on guns is also more difficult." Hood checked his shotgun, which looked like a cowboy.

"Got it on the underground black market?" Cui Shengzhi looked at the rifle with a caliber of less than five millimeters in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this thing was a real sissy.

"My grandfather has a license to carry a gun, because he lives in the countryside and has hunting qualifications, so he was not allowed to bring it out, but now this situation is ...... yes, it doesn't matter. ”

"Give me a handful." Choi Sung-ji felt that he should play with some men's toys.

"There's a lot of recoil, let's give it to Ivan." Hood rejected him, leaving Choi Sung-ji alone with ME87 to grieve alone in the wind.

A few people set off to get into the car, the road was relatively smooth, occasionally the car crashed into the side of the road, and the rest was not a post-apocalyptic scene, but they could not see that in the central part of the city, the armed police and special police instead swept the walls with guns, the detonated vehicles and electrical appliances were burning, and the asphalt was so cracked that the road surface was full of cracks. However, there are so many patients infected by the mutation that they are unable to resist after all, and under the instructions of the upper echelons, they are waiting for support.

"Actually, I was going not to come to school for the next two days, but it turned out to be good, I ran back and forth three or four times." Mo Xuan looked at the familiar and unfamiliar scenery outside the window, and his mood couldn't be said to be good or bad.

"Isn't this a touching camaraderie of classmates? Don't abandon or give up, and have the temperament of a male protagonist in a novel. "Hood never seems to be in shape, but it's strange that every time I see him, it does make people feel a little more relaxed.

Maybe he also had serious moments, so when he said something that was not serious, others would still think that the problem was not too big after all.

Mo Xuan saw the truck in the rearview mirror, and Cui Shengzhi was chatting with Ivan. He laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Don't you abandon or give up?" It's a pity that this is not the case, when I went to save Choi Sung-chi yesterday, Hamura heard the voices of the living, but I didn't choose to save them. ”

"There's nothing wrong with going to save your friends first, this is called friendship first, righteousness is thin and cloudy, comparable to Guan Yu. It's not that I said, you, don't take everything too seriously, especially at this time, you have to be heartless, or you will drive yourself crazy. Hood began to sell his knowledge of China.

"Insensitivity is not something that can be praised." Mo Xuan is still drilling the tip of the horns.

"You look very hypocritical, just do it, what's there to regret, it's a big deal that we will save it today, and - you can't save everyone, you still don't know the reason when manpower is poor? There is no need to feel guilty, there is an old saying in China that 'life and death are life, wealth is in the sky', this is the truth, life is not good, you can't complain about others. "Hood's persuasion can be said to be very powerful, and most Chinese people may be just like that.

Mo Xuan looked at him racking his brains to think of words, and his mood suddenly improved, so he stopped talking.

There aren't many people who usually go to the laboratory building, so there are no infected people. The empty corridor is very quiet, and the light at the end of the corridor is not clear because it is too far away. The four of Mo Xuan loaded the bullet and gradually walked up.

It was so quiet that it was very oppressive, and sometimes the slightest sound from nowhere would tense their nerves, and when they reached the top floor of the laboratory building (although it was only the fourth floor), they saw a row of barricades made of cabinets, and two patients were blocked outside.

Two slight gunshots rang out, and they fell to the ground, and Mo Xuan felt a little distressed when he thought that he had used up a magazine.

Seeing that the crisis was over, Hood walked up to the barricade and shouted Melvin's name.

The one who came to move the barricade was a teacher, whom Hood also knew, a young doctor who graduated from a college affiliated with the Atlantis University Alliance, who was not yet thirty years old and had lost half of his hair, and his surname was Andrew.

Andrew tilted his head and motioned for them to come in, and the four of them rushed in.

"You're still coming." As soon as he walked into the room, Melvin spoke.

Hood said to the back, "I'll just say he'll be here." Then he raised his arms, made a gesture of hugging, and asked, "Classmate, are you moved?" ”

However, Melvin ignored him, looked at Mo Xuan behind him, and smiled: "Why did you only get the sixth in this test, did the meteorite upset you?" ”

Mo Xuan nodded, and did not shy away from it.

"Do you know what that is?" A young man with glasses wears a white coat with his hands folded in front of his lower abdomen. He is not tall, nor handsome, but just such a simple action, he has a very powerful aura - a confident aura.

Mo Xuan shook his head and said, "Even top scientists don't understand, how can I understand?" ”

Melvin paced slowly, lifted one, and said to Mo Xuan: "About a week ago, I used the light microscope in the school to barely observe the information of the samples present in the water, and at that time I found that their activity has become much weaker, and their volume is constantly expanding, and their DNA traits are constantly changing. ”

"What does this mean?" Mo Xuan had already learned nine of the ten tricks of microbiology, so he asked in detail.

Melvin spread his hands and did not answer his question directly, but said to himself: "But they no longer have the ability of contagion, superfluidity, and the kind of radiation that is similar to that of radiation, just like a child has grown into a fat man, and it can't drill through many holes." ”

The four members of the rescue team didn't know much about the microscopic aspects, so they could only wait for Melvin to continue.

"But it's still changing, and it's differentiating, just like stem cells."

"If it doesn't have an infectious surname, then its differentiation doesn't make sense, it's not scientific." Choi Sung-ji asked.

Melvin nodded in agreement, and he said: "Yes, it is indeed unscientific, but the appearance of this meteorite, this substance that does not know how to be divided, it is not scientific from the beginning"

"How do you prove he's not contagious?" Mo Xuan expressed doubts about this.

"So gentlemen, let's get in the car first and go back and talk slowly?" Hood said with a slippery tone.

But Melvin's next sentence made them involuntarily clench the gun in their hands.

"Because I hit it on myself."

"I'm a man, macho." Although Hood looked nervous, he still didn't forget to tease.

Melvin pressed his hands weakly, indicating that there was no need to be nervous.

"I've experimented with blood before, but they don't react with my blood, but are destroyed by white blood cells, so I injected it into my body for a second experiment, and there is still no problem."

"It's better if it's okay, let's go quickly." Hood let out a long breath and beckoned.

Melvin shook his head and said, "Listen to me, I think this will be important news for you." ”

Hood wanted to interject, but was stopped by Mo Xuan raising his hand.

"I purified the water per unit volume and then calculated it, and came to the conclusion that about 80 percent of the exotic substances in the unit volume had expanded and differentiated, and the remaining 20 percent I couldn't observe, so I didn't know the specifics, but the flu symptoms had stopped infecting new patients a few weeks ago, so I guess they also mutated to a certain extent, but I can't guess what it is."

"Let's get to the point, what their mutations look like." Mo Xuan thought that Melvin must have made some discoveries, otherwise he wouldn't be babbling here, which is not in line with his character.

"I don't know, I don't understand the rules of their variation. But yesterday I watched the windowsill for an afternoon...... Don't you think these sick people are very imbecile? Melvin still didn't say it directly, but threw out questions.

"That's right, it's true, they only attack humanoid objects." Mo Xuan went in and out of Guland seven times yesterday, and naturally found some patterns.

"Yes, but at night, that changes...... Actually, no, it has changed in the time since you left in the afternoon. Before, these things would only bite at the sight of people, and the location of the bite was quite random, but at about seven o'clock, they knew how to attack weak spots, and at night, some people planned to escape at night, but by then this thing had begun to be very sensitive to sound, and should have been enhanced to some extent. ”

"They're evolving?"

"At the moment, it's more like an atavism. But according to their performance at the beginning, it is still true, it is considered to be evolving, but not all, or their evolution speed is fast and slow. ”

Mo Xuan's expression became grim, "I'm in trouble now."

"They're now called zombies, and I've seen a lot of people whose blood has largely coagulated and they're still moving. And, at this rate of mutation, it may be two months before you can see whales flying in the sky. ”

"Can it infect other creatures?"

"I don't know, I just didn't want to upset you too much, so I made a joke."

……

"In the room next to the lab, there is a girl, still alive, it's normal, you guys take her and the teacher away." After a period of silence, Melvin broke it.

"You're not going with us?" Mo Xuan frowned, not knowing why.

"No, according to my calculations, there is no chance of surviving this situation, and I know why you came to save me...... I have a lot of things that I can do you a favor. ”

"In order to survive, there is no one to help anyone, and there is no way for a single person to survive this situation."

"Huh...... So I didn't plan to do so. Melvin smiled, showing a twilight that was very inappropriate for his age.

"You're so weak?" Mo Xuan began to agitate.

Melvin was unmoved, but he came to Mo Xuan's side and said to him in a voice that only two people could hear, "If one day they break the limiter." Another day, wisdom is born? Then he took two steps back, nodded and said, "It's all possible, and I don't want to face such an enemy...... Believe it or not. Academically, you've never beaten me anyway, and this time, it's the same. ”

Mo Xuan was unwilling to say: "Miracles are created by people, how do you know if you don't try?" ”

"Haha, even if you can, the dead are no longer visible, and you can't really defeat me; And if not...... I still hope that you can work miracles, my friend, and may you not be overwhelmed by the despair that is gradually accumulating. Melvin reverted to the way he had first seen him, with his hands folded in front of his lower abdomen, wearing a white coat and glasses.

The others left the room, leaving only him and Mo Xuan, and at this time, his expression finally changed a little, and it was said that it had nothing to do with this natural disaster.

"Mo Xuan, don't you think that the more knowledge you learn, the more you will be lost? We learn to solve problems, only to find that the knowledge itself creates more problems, and then we repeat the work endlessly...... There is an end to resources, and when the development of science and technology needs to consume a huge amount of resources but cannot produce to achieve a cycle, this problem is unsolvable. With that, he pointed to his heart with his right hand.

"Despair is a desert of overlapping grains of sand."

……

The four of them left the school with the surviving girl and Mr. Andrew, while Melvin was still tinkering with bottles and cans in the lab.

After they drove out of the school, there was a huge explosion in the laboratory building. The shock wave blew away the paper and fallen leaves scattered along the road.

didn't rescue Melvin, Mo Xuan's mood was a little depressed, and he didn't know if it was because he didn't rescue him, or because of his last words.

Hood sighed softly and praised Melvin as a true artist.

They didn't go back immediately, but planned to go to the top of the block, after all, if they just went back empty-handed like this, the lunch of a dozen people would not be found.
