"The Doomsday Virus appeared twenty years ago...... Zhao Gao drew a circle on the table with his fingers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Wait, wait...... What year is it? Lu Xun interrupted him, "What day is today?" ”

Zhao Gao frowned, and wanted to lean over and touch Lu Xun's forehead, but seeing that the latter had already prepared a defensive posture, if he rashly made a move, he might risk being chopped off his claws, so he had to give up.

"Have you lost your memory to this extent? Can't even remember what time it is? Zhao Gao was a little surprised, "Today is June 23, 2048. ”

June 23, 2048? Lu Xun was stunned.

"I know you're surprised by something." Lao Jia in the headphones spoke up, "According to the last experimental records, the day you had an accident...... That is, yesterday, the date is June 22, 2048. ”

"This confirms my inference that you are not traveling across time to the future hundreds of years later, but parallel to a world where you have never been, in the original world, SH is still the world's commercial center in 2048, prosperous and wealthy, but in this world...... It has been reduced to desolate ruins, overrun by inhuman monsters. Lao Jia continued, "Are you starting to believe what I say now?" ”

Lu Xun nodded stunned.

Of course, Zhao Gao didn't know that there was another person in the ear of this kid in front of him, he just thought that his words were amazing, and he scared the other party stupid.

"Nobody knows what the doomsday virus is...... Although people call them viruses, that is only to describe their high contagiousness and lethality, and in fact they are two completely different microorganisms from viruses in the biological sense. Note that they weren't made by some biopharmaceutical company that had had enough to make bioweapons, and you weren't on the set of Resident Evil...... Because no one in the world can make this kind of thing, it is far beyond everyone's understanding, and even until the epidemic breaks out on a large scale, there are many people who do not believe that it exists, only Ebola or rabies. Zhao Gao tapped lightly on the table with his knuckles, and the conversation changed, "But within five years after the outbreak of the virus...... The world was completely destroyed, and the population plummeted to 1 in 100,000. ”

Lu Xun was taken aback.

"Isn't it ridiculous? Human society has developed for thousands of years, learned to arm itself with science and technology, can go up to the moon for nine days, can go down to the five seas to catch turtles, and build huge cities all over the world, thinking that there is nothing in this world that can threaten the survival of human beings. Zhao Gao smiled, "But he can't do anything about a creature that is too small to see with the naked eye." ”

"It all started more than 20 years ago with a world-renowned paleontology project, when archaeologists unearthed a stunningly well-preserved dinosaur fossil in a national park in Utah, USA, and extracted 0.3 grams of soft tissue from the inside of the shin...... Incredibly, there are fragments of DNA sequences so intact that researchers were stunned that they thought that DNA would not survive more than 60 million years, and that there had been examples of soft tissue extracted from fossils, but there was no valuable genetic material in it. "The paleontologists were ecstatic, they thought it was priceless, and a huge project began...... They want to recreate the scene from "Jurassic Park" and resurrect the dinosaurs! ”

Lu Xun was stunned when he heard this, these people have really big brains.

"The researchers decided to complete that ancient genetic sequence with the DNA of crocodiles and chickens, because evolutionarily reptiles and birds are more closely ......related to dinosaurs," Zhao added, "and it all takes place in the labs of Gene Plasmid, which is the sponsor of the whole project, and they fund the research and inject the completed genes into the fertilized eggs of birds and reptiles to create embryos." ”

In total, they have produced more than 40,000 embryos, almost none of which have been successful. The vast majority of fertilized eggs do not develop at all, and a very small number of formed embryos do not survive to break out of their shells...... Of the more than 40,000 eggs, only one of them broke through with difficulty, and it is said that on the day it came out, all the researchers crowded outside the incubator, lying on the glass to watch the birth of a life...... They thought it was a great moment. Zhao Gao paused, "Everyone didn't expect that Pandora's box would be opened like this, and the creature that broke out of its shell brought the disaster and death of thousands of years ago to this world again!" ”

Lu Xun's heart tightened suddenly.

"Out of the shell is a chicken, it does not show the appearance of its ancestors in its external form, but it is as fierce as a dinosaur in temperament, it is extremely aggressive, it tries to attack and bite any creature that comes close, but this attack is irrational, it does not even have the advantages and avoidance that creatures must have, and some biologists are beginning to doubt the feasibility of the plan." Zhao Gao said, "At that time, some researchers had some bad habits...... They liked to tease the chicken with their fingers, and it was later confirmed that the doomsday virus was transmitted through bodily fluids, including saliva, and the researchers were among the first to be infected. ”

"The first infected person became ill shortly after, he just fainted with a high fever at first, but then began to shake like an epilepsy and foam at the mouth, and eventually lost his mind and bit at someone's throat, showing the same aggression as the chicken. He was taken to the hospital, where doctors initially thought it was rabies, but the next examination exceeded everyone's expectations, and the brain tissue of the man who was strapped to the hospital bed and struggling turned out to be completely fibrotic. ”

"Fibrosis?"

"It means that the brain tissue has been completely deactivated, and the person is already dead." Zhao Gao explained, "The hospital has not had time to respond, the second, third, and fourth cases of infected people began to appear everywhere, a person from the onset of the disease to become an irrational zombie in just three minutes, others simply did not have time to rescue, the spread of the epidemic is as fast as a wildfire, because the virus spreads faster than information, many people are infected in a situation where they are completely unaware of the situation...... Millions of people in the city fell in just three days, the government departments were in chaos, and the military and police were useless. ”

"When the health and quarantine authorities issued warnings, it was too late, thousands of infected people were scattered across the country and around the world through a well-developed transportation system, some even on trains or flights, and by the time they arrived at the station it had become a train full of deaths, can you imagine what it was like?" Zhao Gao's eyes slowly widened, and his pupils were a little hollow, "The passengers stood on the platform waiting for the train, but the moment the train opened the door, what gushed out were corpses that were tearing each other and biting each other......"

Lu Xun moved back.

"People began to deal with this completely unknown virus with the experience and methods of dealing with infectious diseases in the past, and it is not unheard of in the history of mankind that such terrible epidemics have occurred, the plague of the Middle Ages was enough to reduce the population of the whole of Europe by half, the health bureau and the army marched into the cities, they set up safe zones to isolate the epidemic, cut off roads and transportation networks, built walls with rifles and armored vehicles, and strictly controlled water and food, and the countries of the world barely managed to maintain crumbling governments and financial institutions to provide shelter for the survivors, At the same time, the medical community was organized to do its best to develop vaccines...... After all, the world of the 21st century is not the ignorant Middle Ages, when the doctors who treated the Black Death would only smoke it with crow masks, and modern medicine has the technology to understand pathogens. ”

"The relieved humanity finally held the line at the end of its existence, the army began to use machine guns and incendiary grenades against the zombies roaming the streets, and the research in the laboratory was progressing...... People finally realized the problem of the original paleontological resurrection plan, it stands to reason that DNA should not be preserved for such a long time, so some people proposed that those discovered genes do not belong to dinosaurs at all, but belong to some unknown microorganisms, bacteria and other organisms can produce capsules in extreme environments to protect themselves and enter dormancy, the doomsday virus has the same mechanism, it enters dormancy after the death of the host, and it has survived for more than 60 million years, and humans have extracted it again and injected it into a new host...... And so they began to come back to life. ”

"People are starting to exterminate zombies and doing everything they can to find a way to deal with the apocalyptic virus." Zhao Gao whispered, "They almost succeeded, and they almost pulled humanity back from the edge of extinction...... If it weren't for the appearance of those things......"

"Those things?" Lu Xun was stunned.

Zhao Gao raised his head and looked directly into Lu Xun's eyes, "You know what I'm talking about. ”

The chill suddenly rose above Lu Xun's head, and his back was numb for a while, and he suddenly understood what Zhao Gao was referring to.

"You...... You're talking about hunters! ”
