Chapter 268: When You Gaze into the Abyss
The machine gunners couldn't beat the flying dragon, and Song Lan felt that this was very reasonable.
And when he Oleg mentioned that this pit could hatch this flying mutant creature in the pit, he knew that he had made a friend under the pit.
The two waited for Oleg's team to carefully complete the finishing work, the purpose of which was to clean the mutant eggs at the entrance to the pit, and even the medical team who had only lived here for a month did not know how the eggs came out, no matter how clean they were the day before, they would come out on time and on time the next morning.
If the eggs are not cleaned before nightfall, the mutated flying creatures will hatch.
Looking at the eggs that were ignited by the flamethrower, Song Lan saw it in her eyes and felt pain in her heart.
But in order to prevent Oleg from turning around and rewarding him with a rocket to verify his identity, Song Lan had to suppress the idea of "why don't you keep an egg, and I'll see what that mutant creature looks like".
It's okay, it will grow tomorrow.
He comforted himself so much.
After completing the process, Oleg led the two to an enclosed building, which was an indoor sports center before the outbreak of infection, and after a thorough disinfection treatment, it became a temporary base for the medical team.
Taking off the exoskeleton armor, Song Lan finally met Dr. Oleg himself.
A tall man with tan skin from the harsh climate of the "outside", with an inch head and a mechanical prosthetic replaced on his left hand, gave my first impression more like a boxer than a doctor.
I led the two of them to the conference room and said, "Your research is at a bottleneck, and if you want to take a step back and get information about the source of the infection, you have to go deep into the crater, but on the one hand, you know everything about the inside of the crater, and on the other hand, the large space outside is suitable for the operation of the skeleton armor. ”
Although we dare to take risks, it does not mean that we have to give people heads.
As a medical brigade, we are very self-conscious in terms of the protection of bone armor, and we are afraid that we will be able to deal with even these mutated citizens, let alone the unknown mutated creatures hidden in the depths of the pit.
Rushing into the pit is different from giving away people's heads, but let's give up now, we are really willing, that is the closest we are to the source of infection, Gu Zhiqiao has no premonition, the secret of the frequent infection in the eighth country, I am afraid that it is hidden in this pit at this moment.
It was only without investigating the source of the infection itself that it was impossible to solve the virus at its root.
"Just a few days later, Oleg once rushed out of the pit alone."
"He's sure I'm going to fall on it?"
Lu Xiang forbade asking, because judging from the memorandum left by Oleg, I was full of complaints about Andrew and the mission itself, which looked like I voluntarily went deep into the pit to investigate the regression.
Based on what you know so far, we can trust Andrew completely.
First of all, I stole the skeletal armor of the "Commander IV" of the Lipai troops, and cut off the communication with the Lipai department, which means that I haven't planned it after I set off.
"Of course yes, Oleg is the most cowardly guy you know, I have long proposed the idea of sending an exploration team to go deep into the pit, and volunteered to carry out the exploration work, but each time you stopped me, but a few days later, I took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, and I broke out alone."
Andrew's expression of remorse was true, I was the closest person to Oleg at that time, but I hesitated after breaking out of the pit to stop Oleg's decision.
"Actually, every night in those days, you were thinking about one thing."
I looked out the window of the conference room, the sun was going up the hill, and in a long time, the white night would come, and that long night was not the culprit that drove the residents of the big town crazy.
Andrew felt that maybe he was crazy, "Deep down, there may be some kind of will in your heart to hope that no one can break the ice." ”
My conscience and sense of responsibility made me agree to Gu Zhiqiao's proposals again and again, but when Oleg broke into the pit alone, he created a reason for me to be "resistible", I hesitated.
And when I came back to my senses, Oleg's figure had already entered the white darkness of the pit.
"Oleg stayed outside the pit for nearly half an hour, and brought back the news that in addition to the corrupted nests on the pit, there was also the breath of human life, and these people seemed to have returned to primitive life, and carved murals under the walls, as if to worship something, we seem to call it 'mother'."
In fact, no one in the brigade expected Oleg to come back, and the news I brought back was indeed not of breakthrough significance.
At most, for the first time, we realize what we are facing.
"You and I are not the 'mother' in the whole earth, the things that these people worship are hidden in the deepest part of the lair, Oleg's return has brought you confidence, you have not finished planning to go deep into the pit and retreat to explore, but in the evening of the same day, Oleg put on the skeleton armor and ran out."
When night falls, we can go out, that's the consensus of none of us.
Andrew read the information outside the memo, and Gu Zhiqiao mentioned in the memo that he escaped because he was worried that he would be infected and found out by others, but that was obviously the same as what we learned.
"Are they sure I wasn't infected when they met Gu Zhiqiao?"
Andrew asked solemnly.
"I'm sure, the skin under my face hasn't festered yet, and I've completely lost my mind, and I even know how to get out of the armor...... Why do you ask? ”
"Because on the day Gu Zhiqiao came back, you had eight experiences of my regression, and the result was that I had no signs of infection."
Gu Zhiqiao's face was solemn, that was exactly the news I was most willing to hear.
How is it possible that as a medical team, Oleg will have a full medical examination of his regression before he returns from the pothole? And the results of the medical examination are known to Oleg himself, so it stands to reason that I may have the idea in my own memo, unless......
"Unless I encounter something else outside the pit that has caused me to go insane, you dare to say that after leaving there, there is no sign of infection under me, and being infected should be before I leave there."
And that seems to confirm another guess in my mind, "The closer you are to the source of infection, the more mentally disturbed I will be, which is also one of the symptoms of infection, and you can only test the degenerative body to know whether the spirit of the infected person has been affected." ”
That conjecture is true, so that we will always have the law to understand the nature of the mother.
Because even if we did reach the deepest part of the lair, we would have gone insane.
"I'll leave it to you to investigate."
Song Lan volunteered.
In order to have a more friendly communication with the "mother" regression, I have to Andrew and the others not follow me.
"Guys?"
"Uni-Tech has long thought of a similar situation, so it is equipped with ordinary counter-equipment outside the skeletal armor, so the latest technology of Uni-Tech ...... the weakness of the 'Slayer I' type. ”
The Forty-Sixth of the Small Theatre:
Thursday, afternoon, year, month, day.
This day is the day when the department pays salaries, and according to tradition, at this time of the month, Song Lan will invite Lu Xiang to the most upscale local restaurant for a meal.
According to his observations, food may be Lu Xiang's only interest in life.
She is always in a very good mood this day, and she smiles when she sees everyone.
Whenever she finished dinner, Lu Xiang would sigh, "Your level is no worse than that of a high-end restaurant." ”
This stems from the fact that Song Lan's level is still improving.
He uses one of the few subjective initiatives in his life to do this, and the recipes for each dinner are carefully prepared.
Lu Xiang always felt that he was an executive chef who had been delayed by the coalition government.
"Mr. Song Lan."
After coming out of the high-end restaurant, Lu Xiang deliberately imitated the tone of the reporter's interview and asked, "May I ask where your motivation comes from?" ”
"Power?"
Song Lan thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe it's because the work in the afternoon is too free, and I can think about what to eat at night for two hours." ”
When you spend more than two hours a day thinking about what to eat for the evening, you can also prepare a sophisticated recipe.
But this was obviously not the answer Lu Xiang wanted to hear, an orange light flashed in her eyes, and then Song Lan's mobile phone rang.
After Song Lan glanced at the content of the message, Lu Xiang asked again, "I'll give you another chance, you can answer this question again." ”
"On the subject." Song Lan coughed lightly and changed to a formal tone facing the interview, "First of all, I want to thank my wife......"
