Chapter 184: Experimental Treatment
Just when Liu Mingming and others were rescuing the staff of the company's office in Patna, Lina gradually woke up from a coma in a laboratory on the basement floor of the Z-2 base.
"W-Where is this?"
The first time she opened her eyes, the milky white ceiling made her a little confused for a while, and when she lowered her head and glanced around, she was even more puzzled.
The medical equipment everywhere, and all kinds of equipment, she had never seen before, and she couldn't tell what they were.
"I ......"
She wanted to get up and stand up, but this action was immediately stopped, and then she realized that her hands and feet were actually firmly buckled by the steel rings, and she couldn't move at all.
Where am I?
This question was born from within, and with a wave of panic, Lina remembered her daughter, "Casey, where is Casey?" ”
Her voice was hard and dry, and before she could barely utter a word, Lina coughed involuntarily.
Just as she was coughing, it seemed to alarm the people outside, and two people in white biohazard suits walked in and came to the operating table where Lina was trapped, looking down at her.
Lina's heart was full of fear, she didn't know where she was, and she didn't know why she was here, obviously she was fine more than a week ago, she took her daughter to India for a tour, but she encountered a flu * outbreak, in such a crisis, she had to hide in the hotel with her daughter and didn't come out, but she didn't expect to be infected with the virus.
But before the memory disappeared, she was obviously staying in the hotel with her daughter waiting for death, why was she here?
The confusion and incomprehension, coupled with the fact that the person in the biohazard suit was wearing a reflective glass mask, and it was impossible to see who it was, which undoubtedly increased Lina's inner fear.
"Don't resist, your daughter is safe and sound, we are treating her."
The man standing beside him suddenly spoke, but unfortunately his tone changed after being isolated by the mask, which made Lina always feel strange when he heard it. But it didn't matter, the important thing was that she heard from this person about her daughter, and she immediately struggled, "I'm going to see my daughter, let go of me, let go of me." ”
The two people standing next to the operating table were unmoved, one of them slammed the tablet next to the bed a few times, the mechanical arm on the operating table rotated in one direction, and a cylindrical metal tip was exposed, falling quickly and accurately, and with a light touch on Lina's neck, the tranquilizer under high pressure seeped into the blood through the skin, but after a while, Lina no longer had the strength to struggle.
"Let's get started."
After checking Lina's body data to make sure that it was correct, the two looked at each other and nodded, and turned around and left the room directly, without any intention of staying. After the two left, the entire automated medical equipment was activated, and in the invisible electromagnetic wave scanning, a three-dimensional medical image appeared on the tablet screen next to it.
"Click."
A crisp sound sounded, the entire operating table was surrounded by a glass bulkhead, and the multi-conductance synchronous recording showed the measured ECG waveform data on the shell of the operating cabin, and the automatic biochemical analyzer was detecting the rest of Lina's body.
Soon, the physical data had been re-examined, and a needle was pricked under the arm of the robotic arm, steadily injecting the green liquid into the unconscious Lina's body.
As soon as the green liquid entered Lina's blood vessels, these miniature nanorobots, smaller than cells, quickly circulated throughout the body with blood circulation in remote control, and all these phenomena were monitored by people outside the laboratory.
"Well, it looks like everything is going well, and we should be ready for the next step."
Luo Xu sat on the chair, his index finger slightly propped up his temple, and his eyes looked firmly at the big screen in the distance.
"Bob, let's get started."
"Yes, sir."
As soon as Bob's cold words fell, the nanobots that covered Lina's whole body were immediately activated by it, and like crazy and hard-working worker ants, they launched a siege and interception of the "Grim Reaper" virus, and repaired the damaged blood vessels and internal organs.
Luo Xu's eyes looked motionless, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, this kind of medical nanobot has too much effect, not only to identify viruses, but also to clean up harmful substances in the body and repair internal organs, and if it is further controlled, it can even repair atoms one by one, correct DNA errors, and maintain individual cell components. In a way, it's a panacea!
Unfortunately, nanobots require powerful computer equipment to assist in treatment, and the cost and difficulty of manufacturing are also a big disadvantage, and they cannot be fully promoted at all, even in the future of another world, this treatment method is the patent of the rich, not something that civilians can easily enjoy, let alone the current world.
Luo Xu touched his chin, constantly thinking about some questions in his mind, although these medical nanobots cannot be promoted and treated, but they are used to ensure the safety of the company's employees, but they are almost the same.
"What if...... If you use it for a trade......"
Muttering to himself, Luo Xu's eyes flashed with a gleam, the current chaotic situation in the world made him see a glimmer of opportunity, if he grasped this opportunity, the company's expansion speed would definitely be in the tens of thousands of miles.
"Ding......
Just as Luo Xu was thinking about some questions, the prompt tone interrupted his thinking, and his eyes looked intently, it turned out that this woman had finished treatment.
Thirty-five minutes in total!
"So fast!"
Luo Xu was secretly surprised, the speed of this treatment was indeed too amazing, how could it be good if it was treated with other drugs, without a week of careful care and treatment.
Looking at the other little girl who received treatment, it was almost completed, and there were no accidents, it seems that the safety of medical nanorobots is self-evident, and it will not cause any adverse effects on the human body. After the treatment is completed, the nanobots in the blood will naturally be excreted through the urine sweat glands, which will be foolproof in the future.
Luo Xu nodded with satisfaction, got up and turned off the big screen in the surveillance, "Dudu ......"
"Boss, all the staff of Patna's company have taken over, and the task has been successfully completed."
Shen Lingwei's face and voice appeared on the screen.
"Well, let's get them in order, by the way, what's the situation in Patna?" Luo Xu asked casually.
"Boss, Patna has been captured by those militants, and I'm afraid that the company's vehicles won't be able to go there easily in the future." Shen Lingwei said heavily.
"It's been captured."
Luo Xu pondered for a moment and said: "From tonight onwards, all the employees in the pharmaceutical factory will not be allowed to leave the factory without permission, and at the same time, a patrol will be set up at the first observation point outside the pharmaceutical factory to check the vehicles entering and leaving. ”
"Boss, are you planning to ......" Shen Lingwei asked carefully.
"Well, in this situation, the company doesn't have to produce those drugs, and I'm afraid that the raw materials of the drugs can't be supplied, anyway, we don't rely on this to make money. The company's top priority is to develop vaccines and therapeutics first, which is the most important point. ”
"Boss, I understand, I'll arrange it right away." Shen Lingwei respectfully hung up the video communication.
Luo Xu sighed and walked towards his room, frowning and looking worried along the way.
"Forget it, it's really unnecessary for me to worry so much, I'm not a savior, and the future fate of mankind can only depend on the will of God."
Although human beings will not become extinct because of such a virus biochemical crisis, the humans themselves who are extremely adaptable will always be immune, however, how many humans will survive this survival? What impact will it have on civilization as a whole?
At least for the time being, the global economic impact is already reverberating, and if we are lucky enough to survive this disaster, will the global economy be set back by ten years? Twenty years? Or is it a slump? Of course, no matter what kind of disaster it is, it will always be the bottom class that is unlucky, not those superstructures, superstructures with a lot of resource utilization, no matter how powerful the virus is, they will have more opportunities to avoid and be cured.
After returning to the room, Luo Xu lay on the bed but couldn't sleep, thinking about some friends in China, he sat up, hesitated for a while, and still dialed Yang Jian's phone.
The voice coming from the phone "Hey ......" was low and annoying, indicating that the owner of the voice was definitely in a low mood at this time.
"Old sword, it's me." Luo Xu said in a low voice.
"Old void? **, where did you kid run to? Why can't I get through to you for months? ”
Angry roars came from cities thousands of miles away, and they didn't diminish in the slightest.
"I've had something to do abroad in the past few months, and I'm abroad now."
"Abroad? I said why is the phone number so strange, where are you? ”
"I'm in India."
"India?" Yang Jian couldn't react for a while, "What are you doing in India?" ”
"I naturally have something to do, and I'll tell you about that later." Luo Xu changed the topic: "Are you okay now?" You haven't been infected by the virus, have you? ”
"I'm fine, damn, you don't know how strict we are here now, basically we are not allowed to go to the streets, supermarkets are closed, and disinfection is being carried out everywhere."
"It's okay if you're okay, then I'll hang up beforehand."
"Hey, wait, are you okay in India? I read the news, and it's very chaotic over there. Yang Jian asked worriedly.
"I'm fine, I'm very safe here." Luo Xu is a little funny, he is definitely the safest place in the world, even if a meteorite hits the earth in the next moment, he can easily avoid it by drilling into the seventeenth base.
"Okay, I'm hanging."
Without giving Yang Jian a chance to talk more, Luo Xu hung up the phone. Since the Wenchuan earthquake, his parents were unfortunately killed, there are basically no people to worry about in China, only Yang Jian, a close friend who has helped him a lot, is still a little worried.
"Hey, it's time for a good event."
Luo Xu slid his fingers, and a map of the world appeared on the tablet in his hand, and one of the places was specially marked in red.
