Chapter 457: Asking for help
"Hurry up and figure it out." A middle-aged man urged.
The captain glanced at the man, who had been urged several times, his slightly fat body was sweating incessantly, and he was very anxious as he walked around.
The captain patiently explained to him again: "It's not that we don't want to do it, but we want to protect your safety, and your safety is the top priority......
"That's it again! If our safety is really a priority, how can we be in danger now? What happened to that monster just now? It's also safe! The middle-aged man interrupted the captain irritably, and the fear of death made the middle-aged man have a tendency to explode.
Su Guangqi frowned and said, "Section Chief Li, you can't talk like that, if it's not for these warriors, can you fight monsters?" You're long dead. ”
"What can't die!" The word "death" directly touched the sensitive nerves of the middle-aged man, he glared at Su Guangqi, and said angrily, "Su Guangqi, don't rely on the old and sell the old, in the scientific research institute, I have never restricted you from doing research, why do you think I am really afraid of you?" I usually give you face, but today I don't give anyone face! ”
"You!" Section Chief Li yelled at the captain again, "Your top boss, Zhang Gaohe, does my brother-in-law know that?" Get him for me! ”
Section Chief Li was extremely crazy, his brother-in-law was the captain of the guard in Area A, but he was not the first to be sent out, but was trapped in this ghost place, and he couldn't even see the rescue.
Su Guangqi has been studying in the laboratory all his life, and he was angry at Section Chief Li's words, but he couldn't scold anything unpleasant, so he could only point at Section Chief Li angrily: "You ......"
Section Chief Li didn't care about Su Guangqi at all, and the sight of other experts and professors, as long as he could get out alive. He didn't know how terrible it was to be in such a horrible situation, but now he knew.
At such times, he can leave anyone behind, as long as he can live! He hadn't experienced the horrors of the early days of the apocalypse, and had been living in a safe zone since then, and he didn't want to die at such a time.
"Dad, don't be angry." Su Tong said to Su Guangqi.
In the last days, a part of humanity will be exposed.
Su Guangqi sighed, and no longer looked at the irritable Section Chief Li, at this time, it was indeed very difficult, but before that, he had also experienced more desperate and difficult days.
"I still hope that there will be rescue soon, otherwise I don't know what will happen." There have been experts who have attracted the attention of the infected before, and now Section Chief Li has begun to thunder again, and with the further oppression of fear, people's reason and emotions will collapse even more.
……
Under Ran Xiyu's induction, Jiang Liushi and his party quickly found a place where they could enter.
The pre-apocalyptic prototypes of the two areas on the mountainside, Area A and Area B, were actually composed of a large cluster of villas, as well as a scenic area and a resort villa. After the end of the world, many buildings were added to it, especially fortifications.
The two areas of AB are also separated by barbed wire and fences, and there are fire points everywhere, which is difficult to break through in normal times.
Behind the barbed wire fence here is a large canteen, and there were no people at the time of the outbreak of the infected, and there was no impact after that, so only a small team was sent to guard the vicinity.
Jiang Liushi asked Shadow to wait in an alley for a while, then accelerated violently, breaking through the barbed wire in an instant with lightning speed, and disappeared behind the cafeteria in the blink of an eye.
This scene stunned the soldiers who were guarding, the speed of the minibus was so fast that they had no time to react when their attention was on the other end of the barbed wire.
But now, Area A is a quarantine area, and everyone in it wants to escape, and some people actually rush in......
"Came in." Jiang Liushi exhaled softly and said.
Li Yuxin's face did not have any relaxed look, and the uneasiness in her eyes deepened.
At this time, Area A was filled with a very solemn atmosphere, and the minibus drove not far away, and blood stains and traces of battle could already be seen on the road.
As two important experts in the research institute, Li Yuxin's grandfather and mother were assigned a courtyard in the resort as a residence, and Jiang Liushi also visited once. However, in this situation, Jiang Liushi felt that there was little point in going to that courtyard, the possibility of them staying in the courtyard was too small, and going would only delay time.
"The number of infected people should be the most in the military region and the hospital, and the military region has both left and right sides." Li Yuxin tried her best to calm down and said.
She has lived here for a short time and has some knowledge of the situation in Area A.
Area A is surrounded by heavy troops, originally to protect important facilities and personnel, but this time the source of the infected people is precisely the soldiers who returned from the beast's nest, and the injured soldiers should be in the hospital.
"We're looking around, and it shouldn't be hard to find." Jiang Liushi said.
Sitting in the minibus, they don't have to worry about the infected person suddenly rushing out and attacking.
The minibus drove around a corner, but Jiang Liushi suddenly stopped the car.
He jumped out of the car and came to a corpse on the side of the road.
The corpse's eyes were open, his eyes were bloodshot, his body and face were covered with bulging tendons, and his skin was blue.
In fact, he had already seen this corpse just now, and for the corpse, the star seed also sensed a special mutation energy.
And because of his keen gaze, he seemed to see something as he swept over the corpse.
"Brother Jiang, what's wrong?" Zhang Hai also got out of the car and stood guard beside Jiang Liushi with a gun.
"I'll take a look first." Jiang Liushi stared at the corpse twice.
Appeared!
He jerked out his dagger and struck it hard at the corpse's arm.
A stream of blood suddenly burst out.
"Brother Jiang, what are you doing here!" Zhang Hai was stunned, this person is dead, and the infected person is not a mutated zombie, can there still be a mutant blood core?
However, he choked before he could finish speaking, because there was a worm writhing on Jiang Liushi's dagger.
The insect was blood-red, about ten centimeters long, very thin, and when it was moving in the veins, it was seen by Jiang Liushi. As soon as he picked it, Jiang Liushi had already pierced it with a dagger, and then forcibly dragged it out of the veins.
The insect struggled constantly, and tried to get into Jiang Liushi's hand, and he stuck it in the brick crack on the ground at once.
"What the hell is this...... Zhang Hai's eyes widened, and the insect looked chilling.
"Stay away." Jiang Liushi said.
Zhang Hai immediately said: "Brother Jiang, no, I just saw this insect panic, it can still drill into my body like this?" ”
"It's to keep you away from the corpse, I guess there are still a lot of these bugs in the body." Jiang Liushi said.
Now the bugs have been singled out, but the star species still detected special mutant energy on the corpse, proving that there are more bugs in the corpse.
If the length of this insect is short enough, it will not be felt at all when it enters the body, so as long as it can break through the skin, it will be infected immediately.
As soon as Zhang Hai's scalp exploded, he immediately jumped a few meters away.
"It could be a parasite." "Many parasites can manipulate the behavior of their hosts, and this parasite can make the infected powerful, faster, and more aggressive. ”
"However, this is not the effect of the virus to mutate the cells, but the overdraft of the life and physical strength of the infected, so Xiyu will say that if Master Wang leaves him alone after he becomes ill, he will die in a few days."
"It wasn't a virus." Jiang Liushi nodded, he also had some understanding of the parasite's behavior of manipulating the host. For example, Toxoplasma gondii can change the dopamine secretion of the host, so that the host has no sense of fear, for example, so that the mouse is not afraid of the cat, so that the mouse can be easily caught by the cat, and the toxoplasma gondii can be transmitted again.
There is also a nematode, which can be found in the stomachs of many praying mantises, which can drive the praying mantis to commit suicide by jumping into the river, and then break out and lay eggs in the water.
This can also be done by some fungal spores, such as zombie ants, which behave in the same way as zombies in some pre-apocalyptic movies and games.
Looking at the insects on the ground, Jiang Liushi actually still had some emotion, if this kind of parasite crisis broke out when the apocalyptic crisis broke out, then the human race would really be finished. And the outbreak of the super virus has given birth to supernatural beings in human beings, and there is still a glimmer of life.
However, this parasite also appeared because of the biological mutation and evolution after the end of the world. It came from the beast's nest, doesn't that mean that there is an oversized or dense group of parasites in the nest?
It's goosebumps just thinking about it, it's terrifying.
And the parasites are clearly able to echo each other, and they erupt to manipulate the host, almost all of which start at the same time.
"Give me this worm." Li Yuxin said.
"Okay." Although Jiang Liushi could sense the special mutation energy from this bug, but this bug was of little use to him, he asked Zhang Hai to take a glass bottle down and put this bug in it.
Although it was almost pierced into two pieces by a dagger from Jiang Liushi, this insect was still tenacious and still moving.
"Here you go, be careful." Jiang Liushi said.
If this worm burrows into a living person, it will be really difficult to do.
"I will." Li Yuxin nodded. She was a girl, and when she took the glass bottle in her hand, she immediately showed a sense of fear and disgust, but her hand was still steady, and she held the glass bottle with both hands, and began to look through the glass to see the parasites inside.
……
Bang bang bang!
After shooting and killing two more infected people who rushed to hear the sound, the expressions of the soldiers who were protecting Su Guangqi and the others became even more solemn.
If this continues, there will be more and more infected people, and they will continue to appear, and their ammunition will be running out in the first place, and they will soon run out.
Now the best way is to break through, but they have brought so many experts and professors, like Professor Su Guangqi, who is already very old, and there are two other old men.
These people are powerless, they are all people who are conscientiously engaged in scientific research in the laboratory, and it is too risky for them to face the monster-like infected, and the death of any expert professor is a huge loss.
At this time, Su Tong came to Su Guangqi with a bottle of water: "Dad, drink some water." ”
Su Guangqi glanced at it, but didn't take it, he was very calm before, but seeing that the people around him were in a state of anxiety and tension, he couldn't calm down.
Before Li Yuxin left Zhonghai, they had always remembered Li Yuxin, and now they finally lived together for a few days, but this kind of thing happened again in the blink of an eye.
Su Guangqi was not worried about himself, but Li Yuxin, who was near the beast's nest. There will be so many infected people this time, and it has been determined that the people who went wild at the beginning were all people who returned from the beast's nest.
"Dad, you don't have to worry too much, Yu Xin is in Xiao Jiang's team, they will definitely be safe." Su Tong didn't have to think about it to know what her father was thinking, she comforted.
Su Guangqi nodded, that's right, with Jiang Liushi's strength, it shouldn't be difficult to escape from the beast's nest, but now the Xiayuan Safe Zone is also chaotic......
"Still not waiting for rescue, we have decided to send two fighters to find rescue." At this moment, the captain came over and said.
"Asking for help?" Su Guangqi and Su Tong were both stunned.
The rest of the experts and professors were also a little stunned, but some nodded and said, "Okay, then hurry up." ”
"What to go! What a nerd! I only know how to do research, and I have broken my brain! Section Chief Li shouted with wide eyes, he looked at the captain and asked, "There are only six of you in total, and if you ask for help, you have to send two away, so how can the remaining four protect us?" And I guess, they're going to take some ammo with them, right? I see, you guys were counting the ammunition just now, and the ammunition is running out, right? ”
This Section Chief Li has lost control of his emotions, but he has been paying attention to the movements of these soldiers, after all, his current safety is still tied to these people.
"My opinion is that you just send one person, the ammunition can be divided a little less, he went out to ask for help, not to go out to fight, be careful, avoid those monsters." Section Chief Li said.
"It can't be." The captain immediately said, "What you said is too easy, no one can predict the actual situation, if you go out alone, if you run into two or so monsters, you will die." Even two people are going on adventures. If you have to hide from monsters, it should be us. Everyone, be silent, be careful. ”
Section Chief Li was extremely irritable, he was already insecure, and there were two fewer people as a result. But the captain had no intention of listening to him, and while he kept complaining, the two soldiers were ready to go.
"It's okay, bring Zhang Gaohe back." Section Chief Li said.
He just wants to be under the protection of Zhang Gao and his team now, so that he can really be safe. Staying with this group of old, weak, sick and disabled women really made him unable to calm down.
