"You're talking about the effects of rabies in general."

String looked at the demon, observing some of its small details.

"Rabies virus is a virus that attacks the nervous system, and there is little chance of a cure except for the rabies vaccine before the attack, and the only outcome is death, whether it is a human or some other animal. But... These are all in a general sense, and when I was researching viruses in the wasteland, I found that many of the viruses left over from before the war to the present day have been left over from before the war for various reasons... Radiation may be one of the main reasons, as they have undergone more complex mutations over time, remaining in some of the mutated creatures and then spreading around with the fight. ”

"Your dog sometimes drools, foams at the mouth and nose, and seems to have an abnormal temper.... Although you didn't notice that it had an uncoordinated movement, it was at least partially corresponding, and what else did you find wrong with it? ”

Andy looked at the demon and remembered the previous moments.

"It's... It's easy to lose your mind, and once you get into battle, you're completely crazy, and your attacks are very vigorous. But if you go into a state of calm after that, it becomes very languishing, and this state of languishing seems to be a little.... It's getting longer and longer. ”

Speaking of which, Andy also noticed that something was wrong, although the demon was still as violent as before, it was gradually becoming weaker.

"It's not really a mutated rabies virus as you say, is it? What would happen then? ”

The string shakes its head.

"As a scientist, I will only give you the answer after analyzing its blood sample, otherwise it is all empty speculation.... The Big Dome's scientific facilities are so comprehensive that you can check on your dog without any problems, and your dog may also be honored to be consulted by some of the strongest scientists in the wasteland.... Although we have not achieved much in treating people, we may still be able to succeed if we only treat dogs. ”

After discussing the dog, the two were about to come to the elevator.

"I have something to tell you, about the crisis situation we are facing right now.... We can help you, but we also hope that you can help us too. ”

The string staggered around, the suit was really uncomfortable for her, but it was almost inside the dome, and she was going to take it off after that.

"First of all... The problem with glowing ghouls. ”

She pointed to the northeast.

"Over there... According to the information we have obtained, it can be determined that it is the SA Air Defense Command before the war, which has been blown up by nuclear bombs into a large crater filled with heat waves, and the high radiation source has a strange attraction to the wild ghouls, but after a certain degree they will turn away from the radiation source and wander around .... By this time they had become something like moving light bulbs, and for the past three years, almost every quarter there had been a few dangerous creatures roaming from the north to the south, and these creatures were dangerous sources of radiation if they weren't attacking people. ”

Andy nodded.

"I understand that there are some glowing ghouls roaming Dog Town further south than you, and I'm confident in dealing with them."

The string nodded and said the next question.

"And there's.... Those natives, the ones who call themselves jackals, they are all fanatical cannibals. I don't know how they knew there were people here, probably the driver and the soldier were exposed when they went out looking for storage media... But I find it strange that the natives are not completely brainless fanatics, they have been surrounding this place for months, and their goal is to come in and kill and eat everyone. I think there may be something else going on....."

Andy nodded again.

"I've seen a lot of the corpses of those natives outside, and Dr. Prester did a lot of damage to them when he came in, so your crisis is a little bit over, right?"

Xian hesitated, but still did not let his guard down.

"The number of those people is staggering, there must be more than 100 people, how did Dr. Prester get in?"

"I came in by train from the platform."

"Then he probably just killed some of the jackals on the blockade side quickly, the jackals' army is not there, they will come to the blockade again.... Dr. Prester didn't know what he was doing here, but he probably had other plans of his own. ”

Speaking of which, the string proceeds to Dr. Prester.

"We thought he was a great scientist before we came here, but the more we explored the Dome, the more terrifying it became, and we found that there were no other scientists here, and there were already many batches of scientists here, and we were the last ones, so it shouldn't be just us. Afterward.... Paul, one of us who has never been obedient or disrespectful to authority, ignored Dr. Goddard's warning and wandered around the dome, and he went into a closed depth. ”

String gasped, still looking shocked by the discovery.

"So we knew where the scientists were, in a hidden place on the third floor of the dome, where there were hundreds of freezers left over from the old world, and all of them were sleeping in it..."

Andy was also surprised.

"Huh? So how exactly did Dr. Prester convince them to turn into popsicles? ”

The string shakes its head.

"It's impossible to convince... The freezer is supposed to be a pre-war life support device, and now it is completely unnecessary to use them, and if you stay in it for too long, there is a chance that you will suffer from cryonics syndrome, and then it will be troublesome, and there is no way to even thaw them, because once thawed, they will melt into a puddle of water.... We later found out how Dr. Prester convinced them. ”

"White flash."

Andy scratched his head in confusion.

"What's that?" The string thought for a moment how to explain it.

"A.... Brainwashing device, I don't know if you have heard of CODE technology, which is a technology that uses optical media and computer programming languages with hardware facilities to directly tamper with the human brain. When necessary, it is even possible to turn the human brain into a CPU and turn people into organic robots, I don't know if you have ever seen a robot made of human or dog brains, that is, it was made using this technology. ”

Andy is familiar with the term, and when Odysseus threatened him with his errands, he mentioned CODE technology.

"So... Dr. Prester deceived them by calling the scientists here and putting them in the freezer, but why? ”

Xian looked at Andy with a serious face.

"That's exactly the question, what the hell is Dr. Prester trying to do? The freezer is meant to save life in extreme situations, in other words, Dr. Prester is not trying to kill them or imprison them, but... Protect them? In our data study of the main supercomputer ZAX, we found out that Dr. Prester had initiated a calculation regarding the extent and speed of the spread of a certain virus, and it is reasonable to believe that he may have spread a certain virus during the original study of the Great Dome... Judging from our current experience and your information, it is likely that it was a new plague that killed more than 200,000 people before the war. ”

Andy feels empowered, so this scientist wants to use the virus to destroy the world?

"One thing I probably don't know is that there's a pre-war automated anti-epidemic facility in the Southwest, Tibbetts Prison, and they started to hunt down infected people and put them in quarantine after the new plague epidemic, but Dr. Prester attacked there and caused the infected to flee, which is why a new plague is circulating outside."

Xian nodded, seemingly unsurprised that this was something Dr. Prester had done.

According to Dr. Goddard's accusations, Dr. Prester deliberately revealed some defense intelligence and taboo and dangerous pre-war scientific and technological research information to some external hostile forces, the steel plague set off by the Brotherhood of Steel made the NCR militarily anxious, and the 370 robbery and the bombing of the Capitol hit the NCR's economy and politics hard, which is why the NCR has now almost given up control of all Eastern District settlements except for the Hoover Dam.... Especially after the defeat of the fortress of Ashid by a group of people who called themselves Caesar's legions, it was the final blow. ”

Andy took a breath, he understood Dr. Prester's intentions.

"He wants NCR to leave the entire East on its own and give him undisturbed free rein here... This one... Lunatic. ”

You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
