Chapter XXIII

Huge vines wrapped around the rockery, like a green dragon.

"It's a hassle, isn't it?" Andy stared at the giant mutant plant, which was supposed to be a bit similar to the one in the factory, but unlike the one that liked to release hypnotic glow, this one liked to pinch the villain.

With Andy and Tina's arrival, one by one

The "tree man" came out from everywhere and slowly approached in various postures, some walking, some running, some climbing, and even one somersault.... Andy burned the most arrogant guy with a laser to charcoal.

The treants stopped and shot spikes with paralyzing toxin at the two of them, a move that was clearly not working much now.

Tina held up a hand to keep all the spikes in the air. Andy looked at it with envy.

"Are you using that psychic power again?" Tina shook her head.

"It takes a long time for that thing to cool down, otherwise it will damage my brain, the previous one was actually overused, I really haven't been that angry in a long time.... What you're seeing now is a composite repulsion field technology I've developed, where multiple layers of repulsion fields are combined under a certain equation so that objects that are judged to be flying at high speed cannot move forward, but friendly forces that pass slowly are not hindered. She flipped her hand over suddenly.

"But if you push the equation back temporarily..."The spikes flew back as fast as they came.

The dense spikes in turn shot countless treants, causing the huge vines to rage on the spot, and the thick vines began to move like awakened beasts, threatening to completely squash the area where Tina and Andy were.

As if covered by dark clouds, the rattan was photographed with a grand momentum, but it was intercepted in mid-air.

Tina looked at the precarious situation but showed no anxiety, she put her hands to her forehead and shot a powerful laser focused into a single beam.

The light suddenly shot through the huge vines in front of him, penetrating a huge bottomless scorched black hole, and the disgusting scorching smell suddenly spread to the entire mountain area, and the earth-shattering screams and violent tremors from slapping the ground made Andy unable to even stand on his feet, it was obvious that this guy was not lightly injured by Tina.

The two of them didn't care about the unknown life and death, turned around and walked directly towards the core control area of the garden area.

"My partner said that this is happening here because there is a GEcK leak and error here, I am afraid that it was caused by the collapse of the rockery fragments that smashed the GEcK, so there is strong radiation spreading in this area, and a large number of mutant plants have also been born." Andy took some anti-radiant and prepared the grape solvent.

He guessed right, it was indeed the GEcK that went wrong, and once the GEcK got out of control, it would become a bane of the continuous and indiscriminate transformation of the surrounding ecological environment and a serious source of radiation pollution. Therefore, if you want to put the problem here to rest, the first thing is to deal with this thing. The radiation was getting stronger and stronger, and Andy could almost feel the sensation of his skin being hit by countless small things, and the radiation warning of the beep-boy continued.

"I.... I'm afraid I can't go on. Andy wisely stopped, if this continued, no amount of drugs would be enough for him to withstand, the extremely strong radiation emitted after the GEcK leak was almost capable of burning out living things, and the natives in the wasteland outside generally believed that radiation could burn people's bodies and souls.

If the body is burned out, the person will become a ghoul, and if the soul is the same, the person will be transformed into a rampaging monster.

In a sense, the understanding is not bad. Instead, Tina gave Andy a surprised look.

"Isn't that a matter of course, and I'm still wondering why you've been holding on until now. I'm afraid that the radiation in this area will not be inferior to that of some places that have been directly bombed by nuclear bombs, so it is more appropriate for me, a person who is not afraid of radiation at all, to deal with it. Wouldn't it be a death to let you, an ordinary person, go in and do such a dangerous job? Andy nodded in agreement, and immediately turned around to get outside first.

"Wait." Tina suddenly called out to Andy.

"You may be able to give me the FEV agent I gave you, which will help speed up the recovery of the nursery." Andy looked back at Tina warily.

"Are you sure?" Tina nodded.

"All the animals in the nursery have pure genes and will not be accidentally injured by this thing, but the mutated fish that hide in the underground water system and these mutated plants that are scattered all over the place will die. You just need to be careful, and you can protect yourself from the water and plants that you have for a while, which will be the quickest way to do it. Andy thought about it and felt worried, and did not agree to hand over the poison.

"Once that happens, the poison will also flow through the underground and above-ground sewers throughout the nursery to the outside wasteland, and the main drainage canal is an important source of water for many tribes outside, so that it can quickly clean up the monsters inside the nursery, but it will cause a carnage outside." Tina thought he was unfounded.

"You don't think I would have thought of that? Relaxed, although FEV poison is hydrophilic, but if it does not cooperate with the long-term operation of GEcK, it cannot be dispersed into a wide range of water systems for a long time, at the same time, there are multiple automatic purification facilities at the intersection of the nursery and the outside world, and the purification ability has been tested for a long time. ”

"I only need to spread the poison for three days, after which I will shut down the GEcK and increase the power of the various purification facilities, with the help of my simulation computing power, the probability of a problem will not be higher than 1 in 10,000, and the poison will only accurately purify the nursery." Andy still feels dangerous, and Tina reaches out to him to try to convince him.

"Let's not forget what is our most important goal right now? It's about making a vaccine for a new plague, not worrying about something almost impossible here, maybe it's dangerous, but it's not inherently good or bad, it's just a matter of who's using it with what mindset. Don't forget who gave it to you, even if you refuse to give it to me, I can still produce new ones after that, but it will take more time. ”

"And the most important thing about your task now is time, isn't it?" As the anti-radiant effects were about to dissipate, Andy was distracted by the sound of the Pip-Boy's built-in Geiger counter, and Tina seemed determined to use the FEV poison after fixing GEcK here, and he couldn't stop it.

"........" Andy handed over the poison canister inserted in the high-pressure injector, and Tina took the hand and turned and walked towards the area near GEcK, where the radiation was most intense.

Some mutant plants tried to attack her on the way, but were killed by Tina's counterattack when they found nothing. Andy, who walked out of the radiation area, stopped to look into the distance, and after about an hour, as the green light gradually dissipated, the Geiger counter was completely quiet, and the mutation disaster core of the garden area was finally closed.

Tina stepped out of it, her hands empty.

"Soon, everything will be back to normal here, all the mutated plants and mutated creatures in the underground system will die, and your concerns will not arise, so let's move on to the next task." Andy looked around and felt that he really didn't have a position to say, in case Tina got angry and didn't cooperate with him to make a vaccine, those infected people outside would die of the virus before they had time to die of the poison, so it was a matter of prioritization, and I just hoped that she could keep her promise.

He grabbed Xiao Hei and put it on his shoulder, although this guy was not small, but in terms of his strength, it was not a problem.

"Then let's start as soon as possible, you have obtained the new plague data we have collected from everywhere, and you have also obtained the samples of the tonic cream developed by the Great Dome and the different strains of viruses in my body and the strings, and the factory, garden, and seed bank have all returned to your control, do you still lack any materials and tools?" Tina drove the main body to activate quantum teleportation, and a bright blue light enveloped the two of them.

"There's only one crucial sample missing, but that sample is already waiting for us where we came from, isn't it?" The blue light let out a violent roar, and the two disappeared in place in an instant.
