"Hasn't Chu Hai come yet?" /p

/p

In the conference room of the Wuhan Institute of Virology, a middle-aged man with gray temples put his military hat on the circular conference table, pulled out a stool and sat down, The two bars and two stars on the man's shoulders revealed his identity, Lieutenant Colonel. /p

/p

"Not yet, we've been waiting here for a while, and we don't know where he got his qualifications." The answer was a young officer, with his back straight, his legs apart, and his hands on his knees, in a proud posture. /p

/p

The lieutenant colonel glared at him, and the officer obediently shut up. /p

/p

The large 100-square-meter conference room accommodated about twenty or thirty people, some with their eyes closed, others standing on the side and talking to each other, but most of them were dissatisfied. Although Chu Hai has the title of academician of biological sciences conferred by the two academies, who one here has no more power in his hands than him, and last night he said that there was something important to announce in the conference room at nine o'clock this morning, and it was almost half past nine, and he didn't even see a figure. /p

/p

The lieutenant colonel looked out through the floor-to-ceiling windows, leaning back on his chair with some weakness, the sky was gray, the sun was hidden behind the clouds, impenetrable, and not far away you could see a tall iron wall, on which soldiers with guns were patrolling, he was old, his eyesight was not very good, and he couldn't see it really. /p

/p

At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, China actually had more than ten military regions, and Wuhan was one of them, and as the core of the central region, Wuhan was quite powerful in military power at that time. /p

/p

After the outbreak of the mutation, the armed forces of several nearby cities merged together to establish a shelter in Wuhan, and both politicians and sergeants could see clearly that the institute would be the end of this disaster. /p

/p

Suddenly, everyone stopped talking and stood up straight, and both the lieutenant colonel and the officer felt the change in the atmosphere and immediately stood up as a sign of respect. /p

/p

There is only one person who can make them make such a gesture, the major general division commander. He walked briskly to the first position in the upper left, pulled out his chair, and stood inside. /p

/p

"All sit in their seats." The neat and strict command makes people not feel that he is almost 60 years old. /p

/p

Almost in no particular order, everyone sat back in their seats, the conference room was silent, no one dared to speak, before the mutation, they had all heard of the old man's name. A few years ago, he could have been promoted to the rank of lieutenant general, at least one lieutenant general could not escape, but for some reason, he refused. /p

/p

"We all know what's going on out out there right now." The sound of calm vicissitudes echoed through the room. /p

/p

"As soldiers, our duty was to defend our homeland and country, and now, our duty remains the same, to defend the people, to defend our last remaining homeland from the monsters outside." /p

/p

"But, take away all your pride and arrogance, now, here, the most important person writing about this refuge is not you, not me, not me, not me, but those researchers who study antibodies in the laboratory day and night, if I hear someone conflict with Dr. Chu next time, it will be dealt with as treason." The old man said word by word sonorously, and he couldn't hear a trace of anger, but he suppressed everyone's temper and dissatisfaction, and all of a sudden, the atmosphere in the conference room was like a sudden drop, and the people who were overwhelmed could not breathe. /p

/p

Most of the people in the field knew what the division commander was talking about, and two days ago, Chu Hai found a major, hoping to let the soldiers find some experimental equipment they needed, and it was best to get one or two "experimental materials." /p

/p

The major refused, lost his temper, and yelled at Chu Hai. Do you know how many of my brothers have lost their lives trying to find this for you? Yes? /p

/p

After about a minute of silence, a young man in a white coat walked in quickly, took a USB flash drive in his hand, turned on the computer next to the conference table, plugged it in, and a woman dressed like him and wearing a ponytail carried a large pile of materials in her arms, and sent one to each person's table one by one. /p

/p

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting, because of some information, some time was delayed, wait a while." As he spoke, he bent over and tapped on the keyboard. /p

/p

Chu Hai's face looked haggard, as if he hadn't rested well for a long time, but a pair of glasses were very bright, and the fire of excitement burned in them. /p

/p

"Okay, I'm here today to announce something very important." He turned on the projector overhead, and a picture appeared on the screen, like an ancient mural, of two giant-like monsters standing on a flight of stairs and scuffling, with many tentacles growing on them, and some crazy normal people were tearing at their companions, broken bodies, and internal organs everywhere. /p

/p

"This is a mural that has been handed down from the ruins of the Dubai Sub-Empire, and the main ingredient of this outbreak of mutated viruses is also related to them." /p

/p

"There is an ancient tradition in the Dubai Empire that the leaders they elected must eat their holy relics, the flowers of the Ladder of the Sun, and those who survive can be their kings, and the information in your hands has a detailed description of this flower." He stopped talking, giving the men enough time to read the material. /p

/p

"This flower has a strong toxin, this toxin is the RNA virus, the first virus, what we know, is AIDS and SARS virus, in the 19th century, Henry Travis first discovered this virus, but after that, this past is gone, the flower of the Ladder of the Sun is never seen again, people call it the progenitor virus." He waved his hand, looking a little helpless. /p

/p

"However, this is not the most important thing, although the progenitor virus is the main component of the mutant virus, it is not enough to cause mutations, and the infected person will not be able to bear the toxicity at most, because the immune system is overstimulated and the whole body ulcerates and dies, and the culprit is an unknown synthetic virus, everyone see." Chu Hai switched the screen and clicked on a video. /p

/p

The video is his point of view, at this time, Chu Hai took a sample and was studying it with a microscope, and he could also hear the sound of zombies roaring on the side. /p

/p

"Next, I'm going to drop in the culture medium." Chu He in the conference room unconsciously touched the sweat on his forehead, that was the first time he added the culture solution, and only he knew what he was dripping at that time, it was the super culture liquid he prepared himself, which was ten times stronger than the complete culture solution. /p

/p

In the video, a small drop of culture liquid was dropped into the petri dish, and then, the mutant virus went completely crazy, from a small piece of the nail instantly swelled four or five times its own size, dozens of short insects danced wildly on it, trying to crawl out of the petri dish, and what was even more terrifying was that the petri dish was disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye. /p

/p

Even he screamed in fright, grabbed a cup of strong sulfuric acid at hand and poured it, and with a bang, everything disappeared in the corruption. /p

/p

"This virus has gone beyond the category of cells and organisms, and it is not an exaggeration to call them crazy predators." /p

/p

Everyone's faces showed expressions of apprehension, and it was hard to imagine that kind of thing was surging inside them. /p

/p

In fact, in Chu Hai's conjecture, that crazy state of life is only short-lived, even if he doesn't pour that cup of sulfuric acid, it won't survive for long, it is just showing its own life posture. /p

/p

"One more thing, I have completely extracted the progenitor virus, as long as I can neutralize the strong virulence, the strengthening of the human body will be huge." He remembered the legend about Dubaia, the king who ate the flowers of the Sun Ladder, with a long lifespan, invulnerability, and bravery. /p

/p

"Is Dr. Chu trying to turn me into that kind of monster?" One of the officers in the middle scoffed, dismissive of his idea. /p

/p

"The antibodies of the mutant virus are basically studied, unless a new substance appears that just restrains it, for us now, it is too weak to live." /p

/p

"Then I don't agree either, people outside have become zombies because of these ghosts, do you want to study any more terrible virus to kill us all?" /p

/p

"Netflix, have you forgotten what I said?" When the arrow crossbow was drawn, the old man's words instantly extinguished his arrogance. /p

/p

"Dr. Chu, you must know that we don't know much about this, and we also have resistance plots, if your ideas are not safe enough, we will not be the same." Shi Changkong's words were much more euphemistic, but they expressed the same meaning. /p

/p

"Rest assured, if the things I developed do not have enough security, they will not be put into use, and I will be the first to use them, and you can always supervise me during the development process." It's going to be a long project, and without their support, he's going to be doing it in the dark. /p

/p

Such remarks also made most of the people present show a gesture of agreement. /p

/p

"Chief, there's one more thing I need your help with." /p

/p

"You say." /p

/p

"I hope you can send this information to all the places where you can be contacted." In the whole of China, in this regard, except for those in Beijing, no one can compare with him, and even if there is, it is impossible to have his equipment here, so to speak, this information represents the most advanced discovery of the mutant virus in China. /p

/p

"You don't say I'll do the same, it's just that there are so many, it may take a while!" The old man looked a little thin, but he gave him a shrewd feeling, as if nothing could escape his eyes. /p

/p

Although the transportation is now cut off, the military always has a way to contact each other. Every once in a while, they would report back on each other's situation, and for Shi Changkong, China had degenerated into a city-state system, and every refuge was a city-state. /p

/p

I don't know what happened to Yeran, whether he arrived in Jinan safely. /p
