Chapter 360: Virus Origin
Lu Sheng raised the flashlight and swept it inside.
The research room was very large, and they were located in a square room of about 300 square meters, with several electronic doors leading to unknown directions.
The layout of the rooms is evenly divided into the left and right sides, and on the left is a row of observation rooms separated by special hardness materials as partitions, and each observation room has its own special bed.
Some beds can also be seen to have complex reinforcement straps installed, which are supposed to be specialized tools used to restrain patients. The area on the right is orderly distributed with a variety of advanced high-precision and cutting-edge medical devices. There are two rows of filing cabinets on the innermost side, full of bound volumes of research materials.
Next to the filing cabinet are two medium-sized medical holding cabinets, and there are numbers jumping on the display.
"There's still electricity in the incubator?" Ma Dongmei frowned and stared at the two insulated cabinets in the innermost part of the room.
"Check it out." Lu Sheng winked.
Ma Dongmei neatly put on a gas mask and gloves, and walked to the insulated cabinet quickly.
"The power has been cut off, and now we are using a backup battery, but it is also running out." Ma Dongmei checked the connection line of the holding cabinet, and then opened the cabinet door.
The incubator is filled with rows of sealed test tubes, and the slender test tubes are almost all slightly greenish luminescent-like liquids.
Ma Dongmei flipped through it, picked two sets of test tubes and brought them over, "A group of five, all marked with dates, I don't know what kind of medicine it is." ”
Lu Sheng and the others put two sets of test tubes on the table, and each took one and looked at it carefully.
Each set of test tubes is marked with a date, and the two sets taken by Ma Dongmei were produced about a month before the end of the world.
Xu Yi had already found the filing cabinet and quickly searched through the dense mountains of documents. Just as everyone was studying the liquid in the test tube, Xu Yi took out a thick research record, and his expression gradually became solemn.
"What's written here?" Zhang Xiaojuan leaned over curiously.
The research record was written in English, and Zhang Xiaojuan pretended to look at it for a long time, frowning and lifting her cheeks from time to time to look attentive.
Han Rui leaned over curiously, "Can you understand?" ”
"I can understand a p, and the words that will be eaten with rice have long been eaten, and now I will say at most one car come one car go, two car bang bang people die."
Everyone present: "......"
Lu Sheng, Sun Tiantian and Xiao Yu originally wanted to join in the excitement to help translate, but they gave up the treatment after only a glance in the past.
There is not a single Chinese character on the dense hundreds of pages of paper, and the long words and sentences are very obscure and difficult to understand professional vocabulary.
With the level of contemporary college students barely passing the fourth level, they can only recognize a few inconsequential words sporadically and intermittently.
Lu Sheng only recognized some words similar to genetic modification and upgrading.
Although the literature is not known, the date of this material is known.
Everyone flipped through it a few times, and found that the dates of the materials in the filing cabinet on the left were almost densely distributed within a month before the end of the world.
There is relatively little information in the filing cabinet on the right, and the dates are basically after the outbreak of the end times.
"Teacher Xu, what is written here? Why is your face so ugly? "The black-skinned sports zodiac Yu has not passed the fourth level, scratching his ears and cheeks at the English information like a book in the sky.
Xu Yi cautiously took out a few materials from the filing cabinet, his expression solemn and serious, "These are all research materials on new highly contagious viruses, and the time is just before the outbreak of the apocalypse. ”
"In the test tube is the activator of human potential developed by this institute, and this research continued until last month, which came to an abrupt end."
The crowd heard that there was a collective petrification here.
"Last month...... It's only the 3rd today, so that means the research has just been stopped? ”
"Isn't that the same as the day when the Zhoushan Refuge was wiped out? Could it be that this research was forced to stop because of parasites? ”
Su Zheng immediately rushed back to the scene of the fierce battle with people, and soon turned back.
"In the wreckage of the explosion at the scene, there are indeed some fragments of clothing similar to protective clothing and white coats."
Everyone's brains at the scene were down for a moment, and an abstract and strange idea flashed in Lu Sheng's mind.
"Do you remember the computers we brought back from the Oasis?" Sun Tiantian's little face tensed, and he cautiously reminded, "The little mouse Zhang Xin said that there is a record in the Oasis database that the zombie virus has existed since before the end of the world, and the research institute at that time did not report ......"
The research room in the Zhoushan Vault also contains research on new viruses, and even potions similar to those that activate human abilities......
Is it really just a coincidence?
"The strength of the Zhoushan Refuge in the early stage of the apocalypse is quite strong, and there are many people in the base who have strong combat abilities, could it be that they just drank this potion?" Zhao Mujia guessed irresponsibly.
At a time when everyone was still confused and didn't know what an ability was, a large number of ability awakeners appeared in the Zhoushan Shelter, which in itself was an event that went against the theory of probability.
Thinking of this, Lu Sheng's delicate eyebrows frowned slightly.
At present, the origin of the zombie virus is even more confusing.
Regarding the origin of the virus, in the previous life, she could only hear about it through various channels as a little transparent. But combined with the various clues obtained so far, it is certain that the zombie virus existed before the outbreak of the end times, and there have been research organizations that have discovered and extracted this virus.
But why has no one reported such a major matter to the relevant government departments?
Judging from the geographical location and the conditions of this research laboratory, the Zhoushan Refuge should not be a research institute of a government department, so who can have such a large force to organize professionals to conduct research?
Everyone present only felt that the CPU was burned.
"All the medicines were brought back to the base, and the place was set on fire." Lu Sheng made a quick decision.
After speaking, she moved her fingers to put the two warming cabinets directly into the space, and the two filing cabinets next to her did not let go. Those precision instruments are considered gifts, and they are all received one by one.
When Lu Sheng finished cleaning up, there were only two beds left in the entire research room lying alone on the ground, and even the special plexiglass used as a partition was taken away by her.
“emm…… Sister Lu, you are like a locust crossing the border, and there is no grass. Zhang Xiaojuan gave a thumbs up, "Are the remaining two beds going to leave a thought here?" ”
"No, the foot of the bed is broken, and I'm too lazy to fix it."
Everyone present: "......"
……
After returning to the base, Lu Sheng arranged all the materials he swept up in the research institute specially prepared for Xu Yi.
Xu Yi locked himself in for two days, and walked out with two blue circles under his eyes in the evening of the next day.
Zhuang Zhuang, as the number one fan, hugged Mr. Xu's thigh for the first time and flattered him.
"How?" Lu Sheng raised his eyes calmly.
Xu Yiqingjun's face had a faint tiredness, and his voice was slightly hoarse compared to usual, "All these potions brought back are ingredients similar to ability catalysts. According to the research report, the research institute has obtained the living cells of the zombie virus about two months before the end of the world. ”
"Two Months Before the End of the World??!" Zhang Xiaojuan's eyes widened in astonishment, "Isn't it the 618 Shopping Festival two months before the end of the world?" The people are violently consuming to improve the quality of life, and these bad people are hiding in the corners to study the destruction of the world. ”
"According to the research report, the research institute believes that this virus is misunderstood by current medical methods, and a paradynamic catalyst has been developed in response to it." Xu also distributed a document reorganized in Chinese to the public.
Han Rui excitedly flipped through the fool's manual carefully prepared by Xu Yi, and quietly muttered in Sun Tiantian's ear, "Teacher Xu is so good, and he still takes care of us who are uneducated." ”
Sun Tiantian: "......"
I don't really want to admit that I'm uneducated.
"If you can artificially catalyze the ability, then it can explain the strength of Zhoushan's refuge in the early post-apocalyptic period."
"But these people are willing to drink such something from an unknown source, which can be regarded as bold."
Ma Dongmei and Lin Xiaobao, you join the discussion word by word.
Xu Yi shook his head, his index finger pushing up the frame, "The research in the Zhoushan Vault was carried out in secret, and these people didn't know that they were injected with a catalyst. ”
The crowd was petrified.
"It's not that I said, you people who do research don't pay attention to human rights at all." Zhang Xiaojuan huffed and folded her hands around her chest, "Everywhere you go, you Frankensteins use ordinary people as experiments, what's wrong with ordinary people, ordinary people should be damned?" ”
"The main focus of scientific research is that if you don't go crazy, you can't live, and I've read too many science fiction magazines, and I'm really worried that this group of researchers with no sense of boundaries will be idle and have nothing to do, and the whole big job." Zhao Mujia also felt the same way, and complained with Zhang Xiaojuan.
Under the knowledge barrier, ordinary people are too small, and the slightest luck will fall prey to some scientific madman.
"It's the end of the world, isn't this work big enough?" Ma Dongmei snorted coldly.
"That's just as well."
When a group of people complained, Sun Tiantian frowned slightly, "They have so many catalysts, why did they still pull their hips in the later stage?" ”
Xu Yi lowered his eyes lightly, "Two years after the end of the world, the research institute found that the first batch of experimental subjects who used catalysts to activate abnormal abilities successively developed mental diseases, and soon side effects began to appear. ”
"The cells of the catalyst-activated paranormal are structurally unstable and can lead to severe physical or mental damage over time."
Zhao Mujia suddenly realized, "No wonder Zhoushan Shelter has become more and more absent this year. ”
"In addition to these, parasites are also the product of research in the Zhoushan Shelter." Xu Yi's thin lips pursed into a sharp line, "Originally, the research institute wanted to achieve the effect of eliminating zombies by parasitic zombie groups. ”
"But the evolution of these bugs exceeded expectations, and they combined with the zombie virus to evolve new properties."
Everyone gradually came back to their senses, "So the Zhoushan Shelter is the first area occupied by the parasites!" This is simply the base camp of parasites! ”
Lu Sheng thought for a moment, "Tomorrow will start for three days, spraying insecticide on the entire M city with an airplane. ”
