Chapter 446: Contrast

They are all "worker bees".

The infiltration of "swarms" into other countries has reached an unprecedented level.

In peacetime, almost all Earth countries will send a large number of personnel to infiltrate the target country and region. This kind of infiltration work is very simple, and the specific method is to provide simple training to the dispatcher, or even no training at all, so that the dispatcher can become a resident of the target country or region in a normal, reasonable and legal way. The whole process of operation is carried out without the involvement of any state agency, and is fully recognized by the immigration authority of the other country through the application of the individual. After entering the target country, the senders live in the same way as civilians. They may be engaged in any profession and may not receive any directives from their home country for the rest of their lives. This can go on for an entire generation, even two, three, or even longer. However, once the decision is made to put it into use, it must give up all the assets it already has in the region.

They are not agents, just ordinary lurkers. It may just be an inadvertent verbal subtle to the neighbors. For example, positive publicity for the image of the home country, or negative impact on the enemy country, etc. The interaction between people is very large, and it comes from daily communication. For example, if someone around you doesn't like Japanese products, or someone who has a disdain for the country of sticks, their words and activities may affect your thinking shift, and you will subconsciously refuse or resent when buying daily biological materials.

Not everyone is 007, and the exciting gunfight scenes between agents are actually just eye-catching stunt shots in the movie. The spy confrontation in daily life is actually very uneventful, and it will not be noticed by others at all.

Already a considerable part of the "worker bees" have successfully infiltrated the armies of various countries. To be precise, they are all selected assimilation targets by the "swarm". These "worker bees" are locals, and their mission is to make a difference in biological warfare in order to gain more opportunities to climb up. Officers who have been promoted from a small soldier are the most trustworthy, and they are also the targets of various forces. If there is an opportunity to become a general, the help for the "swarm" is naturally self-evident.

Biological warfare is not just a country in which China is fighting independently. The earth is big, and all countries have a role to play. Of course, if all the mutated creatures are killed, the civilized society that human beings have built on the ruins will definitely not be what it used to be.

……

Wang Qinian had been in his personal biology room for two whole days.

In the real yàn room, which covers an area of thousands of square meters, there is only Wang Qinian alone. Through the electron microscope, he focused on the microscopic world beneath the lens. The muscles on the cheeks on both sides of the old fat man were constantly twitching, and those who were familiar with him knew that Wang Qinian was trying to control his feelings and try to stay calm.

In the round lens, there is a slightly yellowish culture medium. Among them, there are two brownish-black objects shaped like sausages. They curl up like wounded pine caterpillars, only occasionally stretching their bodies. Perhaps because they are too tired or lazy, they rarely move, and most of the time they remain stiff, as if they are sleeping, or they may be half-dead and lingering.

The search force sent to Africa by Lao Song returned yesterday. The "worker bees" have made the most careful exploration of all the pyramids and ruins in Egypt. All the mausoleums, including the Pyramid of Khufu, were sent to go deep into it, collecting thousands of samples of soil, rocks and gases, and even some funerary goods that were "obtained" from the Egyptian National Historical Museum at the behest of Wang Qinian.

For the pyramids, the tombs of the pharaohs scattered across the desert, the analysis of the internal structure began as early as last year. Archaeologists have long believed that the Mayan pyramids and the African pyramids in the jungles of South America are two very different buildings. They represent two different civilizations. Wang Qinian, however, disagrees, and directly uses the accused pyramid on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean as a model, and obtains detailed numbers from the analysis of the internal structure, using this as a basic model to compare the Mayan pyramids with the African pyramids respectively. It was found that the three pyramids were strikingly similar in terms of the way they conserved and operated their internal energy, in addition to the identical outer ridges.

The sausage-shaped black dot under an electron microscope is a virus.

This is not the first time this virus has appeared. In fact, they first came to the world's attention in 1922.

"Whoever disturbs Pharaoh's sleep, to whom death will spread its wings and descend upon him...... Hey, hey, hey! That's the damn pharaoh's curse, it's funny. All right! Let me see, what is so good about you two little things? ”

Wang Qinian sneered and used a micro-debugging tube to drip a little high-concentration nutrient solution on the slide planting board under the lens. Suddenly, the half-dead black dot under the camera quickly began to move. They apparently feel that they are suitable for their own growth and their favorite eutrophication, and they begin to eat and drink without hesitation.

Lord Karnarfon was the first person to die after the opening of Tutankhamun's tomb. This was followed by a series of mysterious deaths that occurred to tomb visitors, classifying Yiqiē as the so-called "pharaoh's curse". Among the many researchers who are curious about this, various explanations have been proposed for viruses, molds, and even negative energy. Wang Qinian only used this bizarre story to pass the time, and he really became interested in the "curse of the pharaohs" when he was invited to visit the National Museum of Egypt in cooperation with the Americans decades ago.

At that time, Americans had a keen interest in Tutankhamun's tomb. They entered the mausoleum, collected part of the dirt from the surface of various burial objects and the interior of the tomb passage, analyzed it. As a member of the core country, Wang Qinian was assigned two units of virus cultures.

The old fat man has an amazing memory. All the numbers of that virus culture were engraved in the depths of Wang Qinian's mind. The analysis of the samples brought back from Africa by the "worker bees" search team was assigned to the laboratories. In just two days, Wang Qinian's desk was already stacked with a thick stack of analysis reports.

Six analyses reported the same number jù as decades-old viral cultures. Wang Qinian was not surprised by this, but what really caught his attention was an extremely subtle change in the number jù in the seven reports. That's a test of the viability of the viruses themselves, which are already aging and on the verge of death. They will no longer continue to divide, and even if they are injected with nutrient-rich substances, they will only survive.

Wild thinking can really have a special effect at some point. Looking at the virus that had just been active for a few minutes under the electron microscope and was quickly in a state of distress, Wang Qinian casually injected a little high-efficiency sterilization solution into the slide, then stood up from the chair, frowned, and stared at the huge triangular coordinate elevation on the wall for a long time.

It has been more than a year since Su Hao left the earth, and the underwater pyramid was firmly controlled by the "swarm of bees", but he did not get any news from the passage.

Wang Qinian didn't know what kind of world was behind the passage. He instinctively felt that Su Hao and Xinyan must have been in trouble in a strange world. Maybe it's an unsolvable technological problem, or it's an environmental impact. They should be as desperate as themselves to get in touch with their friends on Earth at this moment, but unfortunately, nothing can be done.

The information obtained from the submarine pyramid has been fully deciphered. Most of the content is a detailed introduction and functional supplement to this "general-purpose cruise battleship III". The other part of the information is the modification of the Earth Experiment Site by the Atlanteans in various periods and the cultivation of target organisms. There is no explanation for the huge triangular three-dimensional coordinate map.

Wang Qinian could only settle for the next best thing, looking for additional information from the earth that might have been missed by the Atlanteans.

The freshly killed virus under the pyramid and microscope made him feel as if he had touched some kind of potential door.

The "curse of the pharaohs" must have existed and must have been caused by a virus. From the Old Kingdom to the present, the virus was able to enter the human body at the moment of opening the tomb, and it must have retained enough vitality. However, the virus did not survive in the vicinity of Tutankhamun, which means that they themselves are extremely weak, even as if the elderly are about to reach the end of their lives. The contrast between being alive for hundreds of years and losing its lethal power in just a few minutes doesn't make sense. The only explanation is that the unique structure of the tombs gives them an environment in which they depend.

This is also confirmed by the discovery of similar viruses in other pyramids by the "worker bee" search team. "Pyramid energy" is a very special kind of energy. Because of this, these viruses have survived to this day, but they are on the verge of death.

The technology of 1922 certainly cannot be compared with the technology of 2000. Extrapolating backwards, Wang Qinian found an extremely terrifying number of these near-death viruses.

They actually have the same genes as mutated creatures.

When he saw the computer comparing the numbers, Wang Qinian only felt that the whole person was almost petrified.

It dawned on him why the true cause of the virus could be found inside the pyramid of Africa.

The Atlanteans' realism about the earth continues. They have also released the virus in Africa. But for some reason, it didn't have the terrible catastrophic effect of the virus outbreak at that time. Of course, there must have been several outbreaks of plague in Pharaoh's territory, and some of the viruses were used by the Egyptians at the time as a weapon against tomb robbers as a burial companion. The virus has survived until now, but because it has not been able to get nutrients for a long time, the lethal effect has been attenuated to a minimum. Otherwise, by the time Tutankhamun's tomb was dug up, those explorers would have been turned into zombies.

……

When Lao Song stepped off the helicopter, he happened to see Night Shadow standing not far away and waving to him.

The Academy of Sciences does not usually welcome outsiders. It has been a very closed area since peacetime. There is only one road that connects it to the outside world, and the surrounding area is a military exclusion zone for tens of kilometers. Occasionally, refugees enter and are driven away by armed guards. Even the troops authorized by the military department must be approved by Wang Qinian before they can be released. From a certain point of view, this is actually equivalent to Wang Qinian's private territory. However, researchers do not contradict this, but believe that it is a necessary guarantee for safety and scientific research.

Lao Song wore a black combat uniform. Although he never participated in combat, he loved the close-fitting combat reinforcement suit. As the leader of the "bee colony" assigned by Su Hao, Lao Song has always maintained a fifth-order strengthened physique. He didn't take the Alpha Evolution Potion, but he was accompanied by several evolutionary "worker bees" at all times. Lao Song knew very well: once he took the evolution elixir, it meant that he had to enter the passage and leave the earth. It may drag on a little longer, but sooner or later.

"Welcome to the Academy of Sciences."

A smiling Nightshadow stepped forward, and the two of them shook hands amicably. Under the blazing sun, Lao Song saw that this beautiful and capable woman had a few more wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.

"Have you been staying up late lately?"

Of course, Lao Song knew that he could only mention this kind of thing slightly: "You should rest more and pay more attention to maintenance." ”

Nightshade was slightly stunned, and quickly understood what the other party's words meant. She smiled wryly and shook her head: "There are many things that cannot be transferred by personal will. Age is always a woman's worst enemy. Hehe! In my opinion, they're even scarier than mutated creatures. ”

"Dean Wang should have a lot of experience in skin care."

Lao Song half-jokingly said: "Of course, there is another way, and all women can cheer for it." But the price to pay for that would be too great. ”

He was referring to the injection of evolutionary potions and the need to become an evolutionary person.

Research is being carried out in various countries to strengthen the body. After being strengthened and transformed, there is no doubt that the human race has a more powerful comprehensive ability than before. But life remains one of the greatest weaknesses that humans cannot overcome. Despite the exponential increase in cellular activity and the enhanced metabolism to sustain a lifespan of hundreds of years, humans inevitably face death when time runs out.

Taking a fifth-order enhanced person as an example, the normal lifespan is about six hundred years.

Evolutionary humans do not need to be subject to this restriction. The human body is unleashed to its full potential, including time. Wang Qinian, who had collected hundreds of blood samples from evolutionary humans, was surprised to find that the number of cell divisions in all samples was almost unlimited. This means that there is no limit to the lifespan of evolutionary man. They can live as long as they want, unless they die in an accident or they are tired of life and choose to commit suicide.

Nightshade didn't continue on this issue. She smiled faintly, turned to the side, and reached out in a "please" gesture.

Lao Song was taken directly into Wang Qinian's office.

The old fat man still looked lazy. His office is connected to the cage where the savage "Xiao Fang" is imprisoned, and it looks like a prison guard management room.

In front of Xiao Fang was a bunch of bananas and a pot of mutton mixed with salt. It's lunchtime, and he likes both of these foods very much, especially the goat with chopped bones, and the taste of lamb under bananas may be unacceptable to humans, but Xiaofang likes it.

Lao Song sat down on the chair and looked at Wang Qinian with inquiring eyes.

A week ago, he received a remote communication from Dean Fat Man, asking him to personally escort the goods to the Academy of Sciences for a detailed discussion.

Lao Song was a little strange: what happened that he couldn't say in the communication, but he had to talk in this face-to-face way?

You know, as a "swarm" leader, you are really busy.

Wang Qinian also knows this. The old fat man is definitely not the kind of fool who is boring and playing tricks, otherwise, Lao Song would not have put down all the affairs at hand and rushed over overnight.

"Surely you have a lot of questions about the goods I've asked for all this time, right?"

Wang Qinian's opening remarks hit the core of the problem in Lao Song's heart. He nodded, and sat upright.

More than a year has passed since Shennongjia caught the female savage.

Wang Qinian put forward a lot of extremely strange requirements for the "bee colony". Before leaving, Su Hao said: "Any needs of the Academy of Sciences must be met. To this end, Lao Song sent as many as tens of thousands of "worker bees" to carry out the most thorough search in all corners of the earth.

They caught two monsters from Loch Ness. Genetic testing confirmed that they were two xenomorphic organisms that had continued from the Cretaceous period to the present day. There are a total of five monsters, and they live in a dark river that connects the bottom of Loch Ness to nearby land. The geology is so complex that the only way to get into it is to sink from the surface of the lake and travel along the waterway. If it were not for the design drawings of the new submarine obtained from the submarine pyramid and the operation in the way of high-power net fishing, the "worker bee" would not have gained anything at all.

The snowmen in the Himalayas are not legends, but real creatures. It was a giant ape similar in appearance to Xiao Fang, with white fur all over its body. Half a year ago, the "worker bee" search team successfully captured one. At present, this snowman has been imprisoned in the Academy of Sciences and has become one of the real products. Lao Song brought the other one that had just been captured this time, which was also what Wang Qinian had strongly requested, and he had to get the pairs of alien creatures.

Almost every human race on Earth has a legend about all kinds of monsters. For example, the Aztec Quetzalcoatl, the Scandinavian werewolves, the Indian swamp demons, and the Bengal tigers, to name a few. Most of these legends are considered absurd rumors. Wang Qinian's request to Lao Song was to send "worker bees" to search carefully in the local area and capture as many live species as possible that matched the legend.

The so-called goods refer to these.

The "worker bee" is far more powerful than humans at any stage of history. Because of this, the search mission was very successful. Wang Qinian successively obtained sixteen kinds of alien creatures. They are not monsters in abandoned cities, but recluses who are genetically related to humans. After being imprisoned in the Academy of Sciences, it became one of the real products. Lao Song brought the other one that had just been captured this time, which was also what Wang Qinian had strongly requested, and he had to get the pairs of alien creatures.
