Chapter 21

Three days later.

“…… The challenge from the Martian virus continues, with the number of infected people rising to 411. Of these, 89 were follow-up medical researchers......"

A female journalist was broadcasting the news on her television set, inadvertently revealing a hint of anxiety. Behind her is the Mars base, where medical staff and medical researchers come and go.

"Let's take a look at the current state of research."

"First of all, biologist Dr. Roman discovered Martian microbes from uranium mines, and Roman discovered that they are similar to life on Earth, and they are also carbonyl organisms composed of DNA and proteins. They are extremely small and difficult to see with a light microscope. ”

After Dr. Roman fell into a coma, virologist Nakatamura led the first group of researchers to challenge the unknown Martian life. They found that Martian organisms generally have poor resistance to high temperatures, so high temperatures have become the best means of protection for humans......

If you want to enter the Noah spacecraft from Mars, you must go through a 100-degree high temperature chamber for disinfection, and you can rest assured that our spacesuits can withstand temperatures above 200 degrees Celsius......"

The female reporter broadcast several images of high temperature disinfection on the screen and then continued.

Next, biologist Konstantin isolated seven pathogenic viruses. One of the most harmful, called Martian filaviruses, releases a neurotoxin that has become unknown, causing people to fall into a coma......"

Dr. Konstantin's team has discovered that life on Mars generally has a special gene that produces capsids with metallic elements. With this capsid, the Martian virus is generally resistant to radiation and cold...... Because of this capsid, ordinary disinfectants are not very effective. ”

"They are more complex than terrestrial viruses, but simpler than bacteria, and they are a class of organisms that are somewhere between viruses and bacteria."

As soon as the scene turned, Professor Konstantin was infected and fell into a coma, and a third group of researchers resolutely entered the laboratory.

"Immediately afterwards, vaccine expert Lang Yifei discovered a natural antibody, a mutated white blood cell, referred to as α-2 cells, in a patient with mild symptoms, which can produce an antibody antigen response to the organometallic capsid of the Martian virus......

At present, a fourth group of scientists, led by Allison, is testing the genetic sequence of the virus...... During this period, there were many moving stories that can be sung and cried......"

The female reporter may not be very professional, but in the end, her emotions were a little out of control, she had a faint stalk, and her eyes were red.

However, she insisted on finishing the report.

It only took a few minutes to talk about a few short sentences of news, but it took a lot of effort and energy for scientists, and even ...... Life!

These scientists are building a wall for mankind with their flesh and blood!

When the people in front fall, the people in the back relay up, even if they fall in the hands of the sick, they have no regrets.

This is a fearless dedication, a great spirit of sacrifice. They are showing the strongest and bravest side of human beings to everyone with their lives.

This is the most respectable quality, and human beings, have never lacked this quality.

In 1957, the famous zoologist Dr. Carl Schmidt was bitten by a venomous snake, and after determining that he could not be effectively treated, he decided to record the symptoms of poisoning before his death for future reference......

Physicist Mrs. Currie, despite the damage of radioactive elements, devoted herself to the refining and research of radium and polonium, and finally suffered from cancer, dedicating everything to the cause of science......

Medieval Bruno, in order to defend the "heliocentric theory", was burned to death by the Holy See in Campo de' Fiori in Rome......

Scientist Lichman, in order to explore the mystery of lightning, was struck to death by lightning......

Archimedes, ignoring the butcher's knife of the Roman invaders, continued to engage in scientific research, was killed......

Historically, there have been too many such scientists, dedicating their lives to science, some people laughed at them for being stupid, some people said they were idiots, some people said they were nerds, but ...... Is that really the case?

It's actually a spirit of sacrifice, sacrificing everything for the sake of science.

You can laugh at them for being stupid, but you can't laugh at them for being stupid.

Because now, this fearless spirit is appearing in droves. One person is not enough, ten people, a hundred people!

Are they all fools? Are these scientists with top IQs stupid?

Without these fools, would smart people still exist today?

Stupid people die, they live forever in the hearts of people.

Smart people are alive, but they only live for the sake of living, they don't know why they live and what the meaning of living is.

This war is a great relay race, and when the baton is handed to those who come after them, they will fall.

But they have no hesitation, they believe that the later ones can go further than them, and even if the later ones fall, there are still the later ones who can stand up and go all the way!

This phenomenon has brought an incomparable shock to everyone...... and ashamed.

There have been people who have been ashamed of their cowardice in the past, and there are people who have blamed themselves for the backwardness of the past. But at this moment, they also resolutely decided to stand up, and more and more people stood up!

From more than 100 people at the beginning, to 200, to 300...... More and more scientists are petitioning to participate in the war on the front line!

Anyone who has anything to do with living things is paying attention to this Mars virus incident, and many people are willing to devote themselves to the front line at any time! Even if you pay the price of your life, you have to be a fool and a hero, but you have a clear conscience.

Hero, grit your teeth and get on, that's it!

This silent battle continues......

The situation inside the spaceship was much better than Yu Yi Feng had imagined. Yu Yifeng originally thought that there would be panic, riots and the like, so he specially asked the security department to strengthen the inspection work. When SARS spread in 2002, rumors and panic spread faster than the epidemic, and panic began to be bought in many areas.

After the appearance of the Martian virus, the crowd also panicked for a while, but a strange phenomenon that Yu Yifeng never thought of appeared, and the crowd quickly calmed down.

There has never been such silence on the Noah, people should work and rest. Only when another scientist is heard that there is some discussion, but then there is a deeper silence.

Some quietly wiped tears from the corners of their eyes, others prayed silently. Heroes fall in front of them, just so that they can live better.

This silence is not a panic, but an anger.

They hate themselves for not having enough knowledge, and they hate themselves for not having enough abilities. When they heard that someone was at the forefront of the battlefield, withstanding everything with flesh and blood, there was no joy in their hearts, but hatred, hatred for being too useless, hating themselves for not being able to help anything......

As a result, many people began to give up their rest time, to give up entertainment, they started reading books and began to learn more...... This was something that Yu Yifeng didn't expect.

Human beings are still a race that can save themselves.

The Noah Volunteer Registration Office has always been the busiest place, with a large number of people signing up every day who want to participate in the frontline battles. However, the selection of the new human government is very strict, and there is not enough medical knowledge and nursing experience, so forget it......

Mars base.

At this moment, Yu Yifeng's heart was extremely gloomy, and he had not found a special medicine until now, and dozens of great scientists had been involved. These people are great scientists, all of them are elites, and humanity can't afford to lose! If there really was a God, he would have scolded God a hundred times.

He really had the urge to scold his mother, and said angrily: "Didn't you say that α-2 white blood cells will produce targeted antibodies, why don't you do targeted research on this basis?" ”

The scientists next to him were silent, and an older biologist said, "Captain, let's be honest, although α-2 cells can produce antibodies, they can't completely kill the virus." The other white blood cells don't even respond at all...... Maybe we haven't found the corresponding immune cells yet......"

Everyone's immune cells are different, and some specific cells are only found in special populations. Some people are even immune to HIV because they have unique immune cells.

The goal now is to find this specific white blood cell. α-2 cells are close, but they are not, and the antibody affinity it produces is not enough......

"Do you have to find specific white blood cells?!" Yu Yifeng said viciously.

The crowd nodded in silence, and the scientist continued: "This is a faster method to extract specific white blood cells to make a therapeutic serum, which can be completed in a few days. The second way is to wait for the results of the gene sequencing and then conduct targeted studies......"

This news is really bad news for Yi Feng! He opened his mouth, but still didn't speak. Although he is very depressed, his reason is still there, and it is impossible to scold these scientists for being angry, right?

Therefore, he could only stand aside depressedly, walking east and west, and he couldn't calm down at all.

Did you really make the wrong choice? No, if he had to do it again, he would still choose it that way. He will still choose to make an emergency landing, these hundreds of people must be saved, and it is impossible to give up like this!

"Grass!" Yu Yifeng scolded fiercely in his heart. Now that the total number of human beings is only 50,000, even if it takes a lot of time to test everyone's blood samples, can they really find specific white blood cells? The probability estimate is small, right......

The second method, the speed of gene sequencing is too slow, even if a supercomputer is used, it will take a month or two, right? By then, the daylilies will be cold!

It's more difficult than you think...... What to do? What to do?

Yu Yifeng walked back and forth a few more times, and at this moment, a strange idea popped up in his mind.

"Damn, isn't Lao Tzu superhuman...... Lao Tzu on! ”
