Chapter 300: You're a Liar Again
There are more than a dozen people infected with zebra virus lying in the basement of about 50 square meters, but compared to others, these people are seriously ill and can no longer move freely, and the muscles on their bodies obviously become soft and hard with the stripes, and their inner activities can be seen from their eyes at the moment.
There is a dead silence in the eyes of some people, just quietly accepting these useless and barely buffered medications, or full of unwillingness, with resentment and sadness; And some people seem to have already thought about it, and they seem to be relatively peaceful in their hearts, with a look of memory in their eyes.
The former are mostly young people, while the latter are mostly elderly, and age comes with different reactions to life crises.
In addition to those lying in rudimentary hospital beds, there are also people who are still able to move, and these people help to handle the cleaning and simple medication changes for the patients.
However, the originally dull basement full of despair and grief has been changed by the arrival of Gray Cat and Cillin. It was the first very living animal they had seen in so long.
Many people pay attention to the gray cat jumping up and down as it walks around, and the gloom and silence for a long time have a little vitality because of the cat's beating.
It's like a ray of sunshine in the dark, and I can't accept it when I see this warm light after staying in the dark for a long time.
A woman sat in a corner with a two-year-old child in her arms, and the child, who was still drowsy and unenergetic, happily stretched out her hand to the gray cat when she saw it.
"Mom, it's a moving kitten!"
The woman's eyes turned red, she touched the child's hair, which had changed a little, felt the hair on her hand that was different from the one before, and whispered, "Yes, it's a moving kitten." ”
Because of the catastrophe brought about by this virus. They had forgotten how long it had been since they had seen such a vivid and energetic life, and their memories were full of streaked shadows, and the background of artillery fire and smoke was littered with wreckage, human, animal, and architectural. It's all streaked gray.
The gray cat circled around Xilin's bedside, and the blood on Xilin's body still couldn't stop, although the wound was not big, and the blood didn't flow much, but if it continued to flow like this, it would die of blood loss.
I saw the gray cat that kept wandering around the bedside. The woman sighed, "I don't know why, now the equipment is limited, and I can't do more tests." ”
Hearing this, the gray cat's ears drooped. The look in those cat's eyes made the woman dare not look directly. I always feel like I'm guilty.
The gray cat jumped onto the hospital bed, curled its legs and crouched next to Cilin's arm, and it checked Silin's physical condition again.
It's even more confusing.
What to do!
Raise your paw and pat Xilin, but there is no response, shoot again, shoot again......
See the gray cat like this. The people around them were also more silent. They have seen a lot of people who lie down and never wake up again, and every time they see such an example, they think. How long will it be before you become like the person lying there?
Cillin couldn't give the gray cat a reaction now, he had concentrated all his strength to fight the unknown substance. It is not even possible to divide the excess strength to repair the wound, and many components of the body fluids are no longer the same as before, so the chaotic situation is caused by the struggle between the two.
Cillin tried to use the biochip embedded in the gene chromosome to fight the many new and established zebraviruses brought by the unknown substance, but in the end he found that he was the most expensive to continue like this, and the possibility of driving the unknown substance out after excessive consumption was very small.
The virus body that was originally infected into the body was abnormally active because of the appearance of this unknown substance, as if it had seen the head, and the two-color stripes that appeared on the surface of Xilin's body had gradually deepened, and the boundary between the two colors was quite obvious, which showed that the zebra virus in Xilin's body was now abnormally active.
The homeostasis in the body has begun to collapse, and once it collapses, Xilin does not know if there is a possibility of recovery. But now the chip is gradually unable to support it.
If the chip is fully excited by this substance at this time, will there be more chances of winning?
No, once from Hou Lei. According to the analysis of the information obtained from the instruments in Hansen's underground laboratory, when the biochip is fully excited, there is a more than 50% chance that the individual will have an excessive rejection effect due to the inability of the body to fit perfectly, and eventually die.
So, what about the other way? Although it is very risky, the success rate is slightly higher than the former.
Xilin changed his strategy, no longer forcefully repelled the unknown substance, and the chip that had begun to gradually become unstable gradually calmed down, but after this period of peace, Xilin suddenly manipulated the chip and began to decompose the unknown substance.
The gray cat's ears moved, and he opened his eyes to look at Xilin, and the energy in Xilin's body began to appear again, but it was a little different from before. And it seems that due to the excessive consumption of energy at this moment, Xilin's whole person has lost weight, and the skin has some folds because of this change, but the folds are quickly smoothed out, the cells of the epidermis begin to die, and the skin is quickly detached, and then turns into powder.
What the hell is going on?
The gray cat stared at Cillin closely, watching this series of changes that had never been seen before.
But the gray cat is relieved that the stripes of the two colors on the surface of the Xilin body are beginning to blur. The gray cat peeked around, the lights in the room were dimmed a little, and most of them fell asleep, including the two women, no one paid attention to the situation here, and the people in the position were also asleep. The instruments next to him flashed several times just now, and they didn't attract anyone's attention, perhaps everyone thought that these instruments were damaged due to the sequelae of the previous chaos.
The gray cat looked at Xilin again, raised his paw and lifted Xilin's sleeve, the stripes on his arm were the same, and the blood from the wound did not coagulate, but it no longer flowed.
Half an hour later, the gray cat blew a layer of "ash" on the surface of Xilin's body due to the death of a large number of cells.
The chaotic state of Xilin's body has subsided, but the black and white stripes that were originally blurred have now reappeared, and the boundary between the two stripes is still so clear. What's going on?
Ears pricked up and listened carefully to the heartbeat of Xilin, the gray cat was a little relieved, and continued to lie there and guard.
After another hour, it was already getting dark outside. But the basement is still quiet.
Cillin opened his eyes, and when he looked sideways, he saw a pair of round cat eyes.
I moved my fingers, and it was still a little uncontrollable, but it quickly recovered. Raising his hand and pinching the gray cat's ears, he communicated in a mechanical language that only the two of them knew that others could not perceive.
"Where is this?" Cillin asked.
The gray cat told him what had happened before, and hurriedly asked about Cillin's current physical condition. Do you want to contact Guan Feng urgently and ask them to send someone over?
Cillin shook his head, relaxed his muscles, and sat up on the improvised hospital bed. With his eyesight, he could see it clearly.
There were a few people who hadn't fallen asleep vaguely seeing that Xilin didn't react when he sat up, and in their hearts, people who were infected with the virus could still sit up now. There is nothing surprising that he will die soon.
Cillin saw the dog lying on a small operating table not far away, the dog had been treated with a gunshot wound after treatment, but he could only lie there, and it was difficult to breathe.
There are drinking glasses on the cabinet next to it. Cillin poured a glass of water and drank it. I found a bag of compressed biscuits, although the workmanship is very rough, but now it can save the emergency. In order to dispose of that thing, Cillin lost a month's weight in this short period of time.
Originally, Xilin was going to treat the unknown substance gently, decompose it step by step and then eliminate it, who knew that he would finally catch an opportunity. This unknown substance was broken down and became a counterweight to the stable chip, which was embedded in the biochip on the chromosome of the gene. Make a difference in the chip.
And what makes Sirin happy is in this chimeric process. The chip is fully excited, and under the action of this decomposed unknown substance, it excites an anomalous peace.
In other words, Xilin absorbed the thing that made the zebra virus for his own use. Because of this, Xilin was able to better understand this new virus.
In many cases, naturally occurring organisms are much stronger than artificially modified organisms, and so are viruses. In fact, the most dangerous viruses are not the viruses in those hidden research institutes, but the unknown viruses that have not yet been discovered.
This virus is definitely not artificial, it is a new life, a new virion, and it does not appear in the form of DNA or protein like other known viruses, but in the form of this unknown substance.
The unknown substance that entered Xilin's body allowed Zebravirus to appear, and now, without this substance, Zebravirus will no longer appear.
As for the so-called mutants, Cillin was able to analyze the best solution based on the interaction between the chip in the body and the substance.
Taking advantage of this time, Cillin took a look at the contents recorded by the scanning machine in the underground laboratory where the substance was found. It talks about the origin of the discovery of that substance and the origin of the zebra virus.
It was a frustrated researcher who had only stumbled upon the material that had fallen from the meteorite and brought it into the lab. It didn't take long for him to find out he was infected with the virus.
After discovering it, the person did not report it immediately, but set up a bureau with a hateful thought. The dead people on the planet that the patrol found were the victims, and through this account, Cillin knew that the researcher had contacted seven people, that is, in addition to the five dead people who had been found, there were two more people.
These seven people are the vectors that spread the virus from one planet to another.
It was a vengeful event.
"Huh, you're awake?" The woman who sent Sirin over said.
Xilin put away the scanner without a trace, and said with a smile: "Thank you for bringing me in." ”
"Don't thank me, thank your cat if you want to, we really can't help much." The woman looked at Cilin and found that the small wounds had healed, and even the traces had faded. However, she didn't smell it directly, she had seen a lot of people with special physiques.
Cillin walked a few steps and stretched his waist, if it weren't for the stripes on his face, others would think that he was a normal person who was not infected with the zebra virus at all.
"All in all, thank you for being able to bring me in here."
The woman smiled bitterly: "That's all I can do, knowing that everyone is going to die, but I still habitually want to do something." Come on, I'll take you to some hot food. ”
There was a small cubicle in this basement that was used to handle hot and hot food, and here the woman served Cillin a bowl of porridge, and here there was only this simple food.
Cillin drank a large bowl, though the stuff didn't hold much of it. He was still hungry, but he found that there wasn't much storage in the basement, so he wouldn't let the woman get any more after eating a few more of them.
Now it was dawn outside, but everyone didn't dare to go out, for fear of being beaten into a sieve.
The gray cat is also hungry, but it has a bad mouth. Instead of eating this porridge, Cillin pinched its ears and told it to get food for it when he went out later.
While resting in this compartment, Sirin talked to the woman and knew that the woman was a doctor. The school she attended was not a good school, her family conditions were limited, and she did not have any special talents. The disaster took many people, including her loved ones, and now only she and her cousin are left. That is, the gray cat towards the little girl who pretended to be pitiful.
"It's going to be fine. Soon there will be a turnaround. Cillin said.
The woman just smiled. Didn't answer. They have been waiting for the so-called turnaround for too long, but the final result is always disappointing. Now she is numb with disappointment, she just relies on the only remaining medical virtues to support herself, and not giving up, so that those people's lives can last one more second is the motivation.
After talking for a while, Cillin took out a tube of potion. This is a previously developed spectroscopic agent, although it cannot completely treat the symptoms of zebravirus. But it can also play a relieving role.
"Try it with this medicine, it's hope to be able to drag on for a second."
Take the potion. The woman thanked her, she didn't doubt the potions, after all, at such a time, it didn't matter what the medicine was. Give it a try if you can.
Hearing that Sirin said that she was going out, the woman gave Sirin a gun, but Sirin refused, and the gun was more useful in their hands.
After Sillin promised not to tell the rioters about the location, the woman opened the basement door for Sillin to let Sillin out.
It was still gray outside, there was a foul smell everywhere, and there were people sitting on the ruins with guns on their hands, and they were the ones who chose madness in despair.
Cillin and the gray cat did not choose to clash with them, now is not the time, the most important thing at the moment is to contact Guan Feng.
Out of the city and in a remote place, Xilin turned on the communicator to contact Guan Feng.
The communication was quickly connected, Guan Feng looked at Xilin's black-and-white face from the light screen image of the communicator, opened his mouth, and couldn't hold back his words for a long time.
When Guan Feng was silent, Xilin said his thoughts, he wanted to study zebra virus uh drugs here, and asked Guan Feng to send a robot to send a drug synthesizer over, Guan Feng refused.
"There have already been robots that have arrived on that planet, but I couldn't find you before, since you are out now, let the robots send you out of the planet, you want to study I have no objection, the starship I sent should have arrived outside the planet, there are relevant equipment on it, you can study in there, but you can't stay on that planet anymore!"
Guan Feng's meaning Xilin understands, because such a heavily infected planet may be abandoned at any time, once the order is given from above, Xilin can avoid it if he is on the starship.
This Xilin did not refuse, and he now has to hurry up and try the synthesis of drugs.
Before Xilin finished talking to Guan Feng, a robot appeared around Xilin, and they had already received the signal to rush over here, and the hidden aircraft had already flown over.
After turning off the communicator, Xilin took the gray cat up, outside the planet, there is indeed a starship waiting there, it is not Guan Feng's own, it seems to be the starship on the Black Viper's side, because Guan Feng's starship cannot have such a complete set of drug synthesis equipment.
Without any further contact with anyone else, after landing on the starship, Cillin went straight to the drug studio and began to try the synthesis of virus agents.
The gray cat squatted on the shelf next to him, and asked Cillin in the gap: "You seem to be fine now, if you don't look at the zebra stripes on your face, you wouldn't have thought that you would be an infected person." ”
Xilin's eyes moved away from the molecular synthesizer that was working on the side, and said with a smile: "Things can't be seen at the surface. ”
Under the gray cat's round eyes, the black and white zebra stripes on the surface of Xilin's body began to fade until they disappeared, and then reappeared, returning to the black and white appearance just now.
The gray cat raised its paws, filled with righteous indignation, "You, you, you're lying again!" ”
"It's something that can't be helped, it was true that it became like that because of the infection at first, but after I woke up, it wasn't, and besides, if someone else knew...... You want me to be dragged by the people of the Royal Academy of Sciences or the bigots of the Black Viper to do research? ”
The gray cat shook his head vigorously, who would want this kind of? But in the past, it was afraid of being dragged to do research, and now this is also the case with Xilin, which is good, with a companion.
"So you're completely fine now?" The gray cat happily hooked its tail.
"So to speak."
"That's okay, you get busy first, I'm going to sleep when I'm full!"
"Sleep."
Xilin rubbed the gray cat's head, this time it was really difficult for this foodie, it was estimated that he had been nervous, and it was rare to relax, so let it sleep well.
In half a day, Xilin selected three of the more than ten drugs synthesized in the test and tried them on small animals infected with the virus, and the results were all good. The quickest potion was chosen, and the robot was given a try to some severe infections on the planet, and if it worked, it was a real success.
Waiting for the robot to leave with the potion, as soon as Xilin sat down, the communicator in his hand rang, this time it was not Guan Feng, but a decadent Beyler. (To be continued.)
