Chapter 247: Decision
Chapter 247 Decision
Sure enough, after Yuhuang screamed, the sound of the car in the distance instantly increased, and it drove straight in the direction of Zhou Yulong.
"Husband!" Running in the direction of the car, Zhou Yulong soon saw several huge muck trucks moving at full speed, rushing in his direction. Seeing him appear, Li Bingru's excited shouts were immediately heard from the car in front. Zhou Yulong smiled slightly and stopped.
"Thorn-"
The muck truck stopped less than five meters in front of Zhou Yulong with a piercing grinding sound, leaving a long black brake mark under the dust.
"Husband, why didn't you go out without saying hello, do you know how worried I am?" As soon as the car stopped, Li Bingru opened the car door and jumped down, rushed straight in front of Zhou Yulong, and said with a complaining face: "Do you think that I am so ignorant that I will stop you from going out?" ”
"Hehe, love wife, I didn't mean that. It's just that I'm worried that I won't be able to catch up with my senior brother after a long time, so I'm in such a hurry. Zhou Yulong gently put Liao Xuebing off his shoulder, and said helplessly: "Fortunately, I followed, otherwise this time senior brother is afraid that he will not even be able to save his life." ”
"Ahh Brother! ”
It was only at this time that everyone discovered that Zhou Yulongkang was actually a person on his shoulder, and it was the invincible Liao Xuebing.
"What happened to my senior brother, Brother Long?" saw Liao Xuebing's eyes closed and unconscious. Zhang Jian bypassed Li Bingru in a leap, appeared in front of Zhou Yulong, and asked anxiously, "How did he become like this?" ”
"It's not a big deal, it's just out of strength." Zhou Yulong shrugged his shoulders, looked at Liao Xuebing, who had fallen asleep, and said in a low voice: "Let's go back to the camp first, it's not safe outside now." Although Zhou Yulong is now Zhang Jian's junior brother according to his generation, neither of them has the idea of changing their words, and they still maintain their original titles.
"Yes!" Zhang Jian nodded heavily, then took Liao Xuebing from Zhou Yulong's hand, gently moved it to the muck car, and then closed the door and got into the driver's seat.
"Everything goes back and says it's not safe out there now." Although he has left Nanchang City, Zhou Yulong has always had a faint sense of crisis in his heart that has not dissipated. It was as if some mortal danger was approaching him.
Looking at Zhou Yulong's solemn face, everyone also discovered the seriousness of the matter and got into their cars one after another. You must know that Liao Xuebing took a large number of people with him when he left, but now he is the only one who has been rescued by Zhou Yulong. It can be seen that something extremely dangerous must have happened in this day and night.
The convoy restarted, heading towards the camp at a faster pace than it had come. Along the way, the intercom was silent, and no one spoke. In this way, ten minutes later, the wide and majestic wall of the Dragon Group base appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
After verifying their identity, the convoy slowly entered the base and finally stopped at the door of the metal fortress.
"**, you take your senior brother to the conference room, don't let others see it." Zhou Yulong did not tell the rest of the Dragon Group about the almost annihilation of the rescue team, first, for fear of causing panic among everyone, and secondly, for fear that someone would make trouble when the base group of dragons was leaderless. Zhang Hailong's case made him clearly realize that when the life and death of the leader of an organization is uncertain or incapacitated, some people with good intentions are likely to come out and cause trouble.
"Yes!" I didn't ask why, just covered Liao Xuebing's head with half of the sheet, and then carried him towards the conference room. Along the way, all the members of the Dragon Group knew this martial master's junior disciple, but no one interrogated anything.
"Let's go, let's go to the conference room too." When everyone got out of the car, Zhou Yulong looked left and right silently, then said hello to everyone, and led Li Bingru to the conference room not far away. And the team members also nodded, did not speak, and followed behind Zhou Yulong in silence.
When Zhou Yulong entered the conference room, ** had already driven out the attendants who were waiting inside. Then Liao Xuebing was placed on the sofa in the conference room smoothly, looked at Zhou Yulong, and asked anxiously, "Brother Long, what happened?" How did my brother become like this? What about the soldiers who went out with him? ”
"Lao Zhao, guard the door!" Zhou Yulong didn't answer the ** question, but just glanced at Zhao Guobin and ordered: "If someone approaches, knock on the door immediately to remind us." ”
"No problem." Looking at Zhou Yulong's solemn appearance, Zhao Guobin didn't say any nonsense, just walked quietly to the door, closed the thick wooden door, and was cautiously guarded.
"We encountered a horde of terrifying mutant mammoths in Nanchang, and the soldiers of those rescue teams have been wiped out. And the senior brother also fought against one of the super mammoths, so he drank the potion that stimulated the potential. Don't worry, there are no side effects. Your senior brother can't wake up from his sleep now, and it's just because of his lack of strength. Looking at the anxious **, Zhou Yulong took a deep breath, and then slowly told the truth of the matter. At the same time, he took off the hood of his concealment suit, took out the data cable, and connected it to the computer in the conference room. He whispered, "As for what happened, see for yourselves." On the way here, he had already deleted the paragraph about Liao Xuebing's dual personality, leaving only those clips of Liao Xuebing fighting the mutated mammoth and the super mammoth.
The video was playing slowly, and there was no sound in the entire conference room except for heavy breathing. Even doctors, who have always been extremely enthusiastic about research, did not make any noise at this time. Just staring at the video with bright eyes, I don't know what I'm thinking.
"How is this possible, not to mention that mammoths have been extinct for so long, and even if there are, it is impossible for so many to appear!" The video freezes on the image of the super mammoth roaring madly because he is blind. After a long while, Li Decai was the first to react and shouted loudly in disbelief.
"Be quiet, this thing can't be publicized." Zhou Yulong shook his head at Li Decai, and said with a heavy face: "According to Senior Brother, 'X' once stole a frozen mammoth specimen from a military laboratory in Sweden to conduct research on biochemical weapons. I reckon these mammoths are the result of their research. But why one is so huge, I don't know."
"It should be that the cloning process is genetically broken." The doctor who had been silent for a long time suddenly spoke, his eyes flashed with fanatical light, and he said word by word: "With the current biochemical technology, although it is not possible to resurrect the frozen corpse as a whole, it is possible to resurrect the cells and organs in it. I guess the smaller mammoths are 'x', and they've cloned them and injected them with biochemical weapons transformed from viruses. As for the big one, it should have been directly injected with the virus into the frozen corpse, making it like a zombie, and the whole body was revived. ”
"Then why are the others so small, and what are the genetic defects you just mentioned?" Zhou Yulong frowned and asked puzzled.
"Although I don't believe in gods and demons, the creation of life is indeed an area that human beings cannot set foot in for the time being. Even just clones can produce unknowable changes in the course of the experiment. The doctor pondered for a moment, then whispered, "As far as I know, some clones reduce the lifespan of clones, or simply mutate them altogether. But looking at the mutant mammoth in the video just now, the cloning technology of 'x' should be perfect. Although it is not possible to clone 100% of the characteristics of the mammoth itself, the mutilated genes only make them smaller, and there are no other mutations. ”
"If that's the case, things are bad!" Listening to the doctor's words, Zhou Yulong shook his head with difficulty and said, "If 'X' can clone this mammoth in batches and manipulate it, I really can't think of anything else that can stop them from dominating. ”
"Unlimited is impossible!" The doctor decisively objected: "The genes of the cloned subject are repetitively inert, and a gene can only be cloned in a certain number. If you want to reclone, you can't do so unless you take fresh tissue from the clone body and replicate it. But judging from the video just now, I don't think 'x' can easily take fresh specimens. ”
"But isn't 'X' able to control them, and it's not easy to take a specimen?" Zhou Yulong was stunned for a moment, shook his head and asked.
"I don't think 'X' can control them!" Ye Wuming, who was on the side, suddenly interjected: "If 'X' can control these mammoths, then why haven't they appeared from beginning to end?" They, I guess, are either just unleashing the mutant mammoths and letting them run wild, or they're guiding them slightly. ”
"Guiding them?" Everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Wuming, and they asked in unison.
"Well, I guessed that too." A hint of blush flashed on Ye Wuming's face, and he said embarrassedly: "I read a novel before, in which the protagonist has the ability to manipulate and communicate with life. When encountering a powerful life, he doesn't need to fully control that life in order for it to help the enemy, all he needs to do is tell the life form that the enemy's flesh is tastier, or that the enemy is a threat to the life form. Then powerful lifeforms will naturally give priority to solving the enemy. ”
"Rooster!" The name flashed in Zhou Yulong's mind, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "I think what Xiao Ye said is very right. In any case, 'x' can create mutant mammoths, which is a very dangerous thing for us. With that, he turned his head to the doctor and said categorically, "So I decided that from now on, we, the evolutionaries, will also be implanted with crystal nuclei. If we can activate the ability a day earlier, our chances of survival will increase by one point. ”
