Chapter 388: Kicked Out
"What's going on?"
Wang Tao has seen the impurities in his body rise, but he has never seen this sudden surge.
And after this surge, it can even be lowered? This is beyond Wang Tao's understanding...... It is important to know that even the use of inhibitors can only suppress the onset of the virus, but not reduce the impurities in the body.
At present, Wang Tao only knows that there are two ways to reduce impurities in the body.
One is promotion. After each promotion, the impurities in the body will be reduced by 50%, which is also the way most people can reduce the impurities in the body.
The other is to use a "removal agent", which can reduce impurities by 1% per bottle, and the effect is immediate. But the removal potion is only available to Wang Tao, and there are not many, only enough for Wang Tao's own use.
And these two women obviously don't belong to any kind, so this surprised Wang Tao.
"What's wrong with them?"
Qu Shilin curiously poked the body of one of the women, but the other party did not react.
Because the environment was relatively dim just now, the speed of the two girls from attacking Wang Tao to being subdued by Wang Tao was too fast, causing Qu Shilin to not see what was happening too clearly. She only vaguely saw that something seemed to have changed in the other person's body.
"I don't know, it feels like I'm going to be a zombie, and I'm about to reach 100% in my body. But...... Suddenly suppressed? The impurities in the body are reduced, and they return to the previous state......"
Wang Tao shook his head, and then looked at Qu Shilin.
There was no special state on the other party's head, and he couldn't judge the reason. Maybe Qu Shilin, a researcher, can see some problems?
Qu Shilin was also puzzled after hearing Wang Tao's words.
"Impurities in the body? Zombies? I'll test it out. ”
Qu Shilin brought a portable detector from the car that can detect impurities in the body. This is the latest thing made by their research institute, which was installed in the car by Qu Shilin.
Wang Tao naturally didn't need this thing, but Qu Shilin didn't know that Wang Tao could see the impurities in his body, she thought that Wang Tao was guessing, so she wanted to test it herself.
Qu Shilin plucked some hair from the two girls lying on the ground and put them in the instrument. A moment later, two lines of small print appeared on the small screen on the instrument.
[Energy: Tier 0]
[Impurities: Grade 10]
Seeing this test result, Wang Tao was stunned for a moment.
Now the detector has gone through several iterations and is much more accurate.
Previously, it could only detect levels 0 to 5, but now it can detect level 10. Now every level 1 represents 10% of the impurities in the body, so level 10 is 90%-100% of the impurities in the body!
But Wang Tao clearly saw that the impurities in the bodies of the two women were 54% and 60% respectively...... The test results were different from what he saw!
Wang Tao suspected that there might be something wrong with this instrument, after all, there shouldn't be a problem with what he saw, right?
"Level 10 impurities in the body!"
Qu Shilin's face was very serious.
Under normal circumstances, when the impurities in the human body exceed level 8, that is, more than 80%, some zombie characteristics will appear. For example, skin ulcers, white eyes, exposed blood vessels......
These characteristics are similar to being infected with the zombie virus, there is a possibility of mutation at any time, and the inhibitor will not play a role.
"But the impurities in these two people's bodies are already level 10, but they don't have the characteristics of zombies, which is unreasonable......"
Qu Shilin muttered again, and then looked at Wang Tao again.
"Oh yes, you just said that they had zombie features on them and then disappeared?"
"Yes."
Wang Tao nodded.
"It's not scientific! How can you disappear after appearing with zombie characteristics......"
Seeing Qu Shilin's doubts, Wang Tao subconsciously glanced at Jiang Shixue, Jiang Shixue happened to look at it too, and the two looked at each other tacitly.
The previous Jiang Shixue no longer had the characteristics of a zombie, but directly became a zombie, but was finally rescued by Wang Tao.
However, Jiang Shixue's situation is different from this, she used a purification potion.
And these two women, Wang Tao saw it very clearly, they didn't take anything.
The impurities in the bodies of these two women are now more than 80%, and it is reasonable that they do not have zombie characteristics...... Therefore, there is still a problem with Qu Shilin's detector. Or maybe there is some delay in how it detects?
Anyway, Wang Tao directly saw the attributes, which matched the current state of these two women, so ...... What he saw should be accurate.
At this time, Qu Shilin suddenly said:
"If there is too much impurities in the human body, there will be some changes in the body, and these changes will not only be manifested in the appearance, but also in the inside. The detector is to observe this change to determine how many impurities are in the other party's body. As far as I know, at the moment only promotion will eliminate this change, nothing else can be eliminated, it is basically irreversible! I speculate that the two of them may have changed back in appearance, but there are still some traces of the original condition in their bodies, so the detector detected that there are still many impurities in their bodies......"
Wang Tao nodded secretly, Qu Shilin's explanation should be more reasonable.
To put it simply, impurities in the body are like a person's file, and when the impurities in the body are too high, it is equivalent to having a criminal record. This record can only be partially erased through promotion, even by clearing potions, and there is no other way to erase it. The detector is equivalent to investigating the person's file, and as soon as it sees a criminal record, it directly shows that the person has a stain.
So, what the hell is going on with them? Will it become a zombie again? ”
Ding Yuqin frowned and asked.
Although she is kind-hearted, she is not a good person. If these two people were still a threat to Wang Tao, she wouldn't mind taking action to deal with them.
"I don't know ......"
Qu Shilin shook her head.
"I don't know...... But there must be something wrong with these two. ”
Wang Tao also shook his head.
Let's not talk about the sudden increase and decrease of impurities in the body, let's just say that the strength of the two of them is very wrong-
They were obviously ordinary people, but when they pounced on Wang Tao just now, their speed was not lower than that of the third order!
Wang Tao went to take a look at the situation of 1v3 over there, their battle is not over yet, and it seems that the second round has begun. And the woman had been chained to the post and never let go, but she didn't turn into a zombie or anything.
After not seeing anything for the time being, Wang Tao came back again.
"Let's wake her up first, and ask."
Wang Tao just used a mental attack to make these two women unconscious, and the strength was just right, if he used a little harder, it is estimated that the two of them would be gone.
Nie Siyan came over and woke the two women up.
"Uh......"
The two girls woke up in a daze.
When they saw Wang Tao, they subconsciously wanted to crawl over to Wang Tao.
"Big Brother~"
Everyone was on guard that she might suddenly attack, but they just crawled to Wang Tao's side, and they didn't have any intention of attacking.
"Why are you attacking me?"
Wang Tao squatted down and looked at the two women with serious eyes.
"Huh? I—We didn't attack the boss......"
The two women's expressions were a little dazed, and they didn't look like they were lying.
"Huh? Amnesia? Don't have this memory? ”
Wang Tao frowned.
However, these two women may also be pretending......
Wang Tao continued to inquire about the situation just now, and then carefully observed the two women's every move with his mental power.
If the other party is lying, it can be seen through some details.
Ten minutes later, Wang Tao stopped questioning.
These two women really don't know anything, and the memory of their attack on Wang Tao just now is gone.
Everyone frowned.
They've never seen this before, is it mentally problematic? Or have you come across some mysterious phenomenon?
Wang Tao quietly inquired about the surrounding situation, and he didn't feel like he was in a fantasy or anything like that......
"Big brother, you must be mistaken, we really didn't attack you! You just gave us so much food, how could we attack you! ”
Seeing that the two girls looked a little aggrieved, Wang Tao shook his head.
"Looks like I haven't had a good night's rest lately, so I'm hallucinating...... Don't talk about it, get dressed. ”
The two girls saw that Wang Tao didn't seem to be interested in themselves, so they had to change their clothes again in a trembling manner. It's just a few degrees, and it's still cold.
After they got dressed, Wang Tao asked again:
"I ask you, now that you are free, do you plan to wander in the last days in the future, or do you plan to follow me back to the Changhe base?"
Wang Tao had just asked this question, but the two girls didn't know if they hadn't heard it before, so they took off their clothes as soon as they came up, and then suddenly attacked Wang Tao, so they didn't answer.
Now that they heard this question again, the reaction of the two women was somewhat unexpected by Wang Tao.
"Freedom? We don't want to be free! We want food! ”
Looking at the frightened faces of the two, Wang Tao and everyone were a little puzzled.
If they were wandering in the last days, they might not really be able to get food, after all, they were ordinary people in a normal state.
But Wang Tao just gave them a choice, and did not really let them wander.
Wang Tao's original intention was to bring them back to the base, wouldn't there be food when they went to the base?
Isn't this better than being chained and selling your body for something that doesn't fill your stomach?
"I said, you can follow me to the Changhe base, you don't have to wander here......"
"Can't go! We can't go to the Changhe base! ”
The two women's heads shook like rattles.
"Huh? Why? ”
Wang Tao frowned.
"Because...... We were driven out of the Changhe base! ”
There was some fear in the eyes of both women.
“?”
Wang Tao was a little puzzled, would the Changhe base drive them out? It's unlikely!
The Changhe base is very short of people, and normally it is impossible to drive people out.
Unless they have a criminal record, such as Shang Qin, who is imprisoned and abused, if they are discovered, they will definitely not be allowed to enter.
But this woman is a victim...... Could it be that when they went to the Changhe base, they already had the state of "suddenly becoming like zombies"?
As if thinking of something sad, one of the women wiped her tears and said:
"We walked a long way and lived and died to get to the Changhe base, but they said we were not up to standard, so they kicked us out...... There was a wave of corpses, and we almost died......"
"Unqualified?"
Wang Tao subconsciously looked at Qu Shilin.
He has only been in the Changhe Base for a long time, and he is not very familiar with many things here, Qu Shilin came to the Changhe Base much earlier than him, he should know something, right?
Qu Shilin frowned at first, and then suddenly became a little abrupt.
"Wang Tao seems to know what's going on......"
The Changhe base lists people with more than 80% of impurities in their bodies as high-risk groups, and even their risk level is higher than that of people infected with the zombie virus.
People infected with the zombie virus are documented, and no one will hide it. Because the base will sponsor certain inhibitors free of charge.
But this kind of situation of too much impurities in the body is relatively hidden, and even the parties don't know about it, and it is not necessary that the fusion of crystal nuclei will increase the impurities in the body, and other things may also increase...... Therefore, the danger is relatively greater.
If the impurities in the body of the official residents in the base reach 80%, then they may be monitored every day, and this is still in the case that you have a certain effect, if the ordinary people reach such a high level of impurities in the body, the base will send you to a special place for closed management. This place is full of people with high impurities in the body, which is a bit like a prison. But it's not as strict as a prison, except that you can't come out casually, life inside is not much different from outside.
This is also something that cannot be helped, after all, the destruction of many bases starts from the inside, which is a lesson from the past. If there is a zombie in the base, it may lead to the destruction of the entire base, and this kind of thing must be treated carefully.
And the base is already very humane, although it restricts freedom, but at least let these people live in the city, still alive.
Because of the treatment of outsiders, the base is much colder - more than 80% of the impurities in the body are not allowed to enter the base.
After all, this thing is like a time bomb, I don't know when it will explode. If the base gets too many of these people in, it will be finished sooner or later.
The official inhabitants of the base have contributed to the base to a greater or lesser extent, and the base is supposed to provide them with space to live, but outsiders have not contributed, and the base is not obliged to keep this time bomb in the base......
"So, maybe they were turned away by the base because of the high impurities in their bodies?"
Wang Tao looked at Qu Shilin and said.
"It should be."
Qu Shilin nodded.
In order to prove that she was speculating, Qu Shilin asked the two women again. Sure enough, as she thought, these two women had fused zombie crystal nuclei before coming to the Changhe base, and they fused a lot, all of them were white crystal nuclei, so it was reasonable to accumulate a lot of impurities in their bodies.
If you look at it this way, it is indeed reasonable to keep these people with too high impurities in their bodies out. You can't risk the hundreds of thousands of lives in the city for the sake of a little kindness.
Unless there is a solution to the impurities in their body...... Obviously, it is not possible to use the removal potion, and Wang Tao does not have a few bottles. Promotion is one way to go, but it's also very costly.
"Big brother, I know you're a good person, but we really don't need freedom, and we're already grateful that you can give us food......"
