"What the hell are you trying to do!"

The bug looked up angrily, but he didn't see where the specific location of the surveillance camera was, but judging from the situation that the other party could see and hear on his side, although the bug couldn't see it, there must be monitoring equipment near the station.

So she didn't even ask where the surveillance camera was, and just pulled her throat, and the voice full of anger echoed repeatedly in the empty central station.

It's no wonder that Worm lost his temper, the reason why she and Turtledove entered this underground research institute was partly because Worm wanted to find out what the New Empire was doing here, and partly because he was here to save people, after all, this mysterious person had called for help when he was in the ruins of the city above the ground.

As a result, who would have thought that the other party would put himself together like this, - he obviously came to save him by the way, but not only did he not appreciate it, but he also lied to himself and Turtledove to inject some bullshit "universal serum", at this time, listening to his voice, Shi Ran looked indifferent, how could the little worm not feel angry.

If the mysterious man stands in front of the worm now, it is estimated that the worm is so angry that he can jump up and give him two big mouths, but unfortunately people are hiding in a place that no one knows, even if the worm wants to smoke him, he can't pump it, so he can only jump to his feet and lose his temper, which is purely to vent his anger.

……

"I don't want to do anything," there was a moment of silence before the mystery spoke again to the two people in the station over the radio, "As I said, you two are running out of time, and if you don't find the antidote within forty-eight hours, your lives will be in danger until you become one of the monsters roaming this underground research institute." ”

Hearing the mysterious man's words, the worm couldn't help but clench his fists.

In fact, the worm herself roughly guessed the possible consequences, but she just guessed that she and the turtledove would die, and never thought that after being injected with the "universal serum", not only would she die, but she would even become a monster like the walking dead, which was really more uncomfortable than death.

"Bastard."

The little worm gritted her teeth and scolded three words, although she usually has a more gentlemanly personality, but after all, she is a girl, if she is not angry, the little worm usually will not burst into a foul mouth, - it can be seen that the little worm at this moment is indeed about to be fried.

……

"I am not exaggerating to you," the mysterious man continued, "I believe you can feel it yourself, whether your hunger is getting stronger and stronger, and you must do your best all the time to control your desire to eat, or you will lose your mind and become a madman who only knows how to fill your belly." ”

"Through the camera just now, I saw that you successfully restrained the first wave of hunger, but don't leave it to chance, because in the next time, you and he will have to go through this situation four more times, and each time it will be stronger and stronger, you can carry the first time, but you may not be able to withstand the second and third ......"

"There will always be a time when you can't bear it."

The mysterious man spoke in a calm tone, and there was not much emotion in his voice, neither the snickering joy of the successful plan, nor the deliberate threat, as if he was just communicating with the worm as usual.

Perhaps sensing that the other party had not shown any hostility for the time being, the worm asked after calming down a little:

"What the hell are you fooling us into injecting?"

"'All-purpose serum'."

The mysterious man returned to the Tao without thinking.

"Be more detailed."

The little worm asked, she knew that the other party would definitely answer her, because the little worm who had calmed down quickly took a look at the clues she currently had in her mind, and suddenly found that although on the surface, she and the turtledove were in a passive situation, but after thinking about it carefully, in fact, the two of them still held a certain initiative in their hands.

Why did the mysterious man go to great lengths to toss out so many moths, speaking of which, he still wanted to use this as a threat to force himself and the turtledove to do something for him, but in many angles and levels, there is not much difference between "force" and "beg".

In any case, this mysterious person definitely has a request for himself, in this case, he has to make good use of this less obvious advantage, - the little worm has made up her mind in an instant, the first thing she wants to do is to get more information from the other party, so that no matter what choice is made later, she can have more and more comprehensive basis.

……

"The 'universal serum' is extracted from the blood of a host infected with a special bacteria, so it contains a certain number of special bacteria," the mysterious man spoke, as the worm expected, "This bacteria has always only spread through body fluids between mutants, forming a symbiotic relationship with the host. ”

"The so-called symbiotic relationship refers to the fact that special bacteria provide super self-healing ability for mutants, in addition to affecting the mitochondria in the host cells in some way to achieve the function of strengthening metabolism, while mutants provide the bacteria in the body with the nutrients needed for survival and reproduction."

"This bacterium has this miraculous effect when it is in the body of a mutant, and once it is present in a non-mutant body, such as a human, it will go crazy to reproduce itself, and although it will also give the same self-healing ability to the host, it will eventually kill the host due to overbreeding."

"During this period, because the hypothalamus is affected by bacteria, the host will repeatedly produce an irrepressible desire to eat to replenish energy for the bacteria to multiply."

"In order to allow this bacterium to survive in the human body without killing the host, the 'universal serum' was specially developed, but the result was unsatisfactory, the 'universal serum' could not solve this problem well, the experimental subjects either died from the reproduction of bacteria, or because of the rest of the components in the 'universal serum', completely became mutants, and the balance between the relationship is still not graspable."

……

The mysterious man's words solved many doubts in the little worm's heart, and she now finally understood what this "universal serum" was, but it was not enough to understand this, the little worm also wanted to know what the mysterious man wanted to do.

"It seems that the 'antidote' in your mouth should be some kind of antibiotic?"

The worm thought to himself that since the lethal thing in the "universal serum" is bacteria, then the antibiotics used to kill the bacteria must be antibiotics, and the worm still knows something about this simple medical common sense.

"Yes," said the mystery man, "is an antibiotic specifically for this bacterium." ”

"Antibiotics, 'all-purpose serum,' hum," Worm chuckled softly, as nothing had gone beyond her expectations, "I'll stop here for small talk, I don't think you're going to tell me where you can get that antibiotic for no reason, and tell me what you want." ”
