The rehabilitation hospital took Lin Jiu's blood sample. Si Xu personally watched them test it and disposed of Lin Jiu's blood sample after the test.
Fortunately, the test results were good and there was no such pest in Lin Jiu's blood sample.
Lin Jiu himself knew that he should not be infected. There were no wounds on his fingers, so even if there were any pests, they could not enter his body. He was just feeling sick.
He always sees the green light, but others can't see it. Lin Jiu just wanted to try and see if he could touch the green light. Who could have thought that such a thing would happen
After getting Lin Jiu's test results, Si Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
These pests are very tiny. Once they enter the human body, they will multiply rapidly. The body will be filled with these tiny pests. You can imagine how painful it will be for the infected person.
Lu Yu and Shi Shuqing dealt with the crazy sober person and hurried over. They were relieved to learn that Lin Jiu was not infected.
Lu Yu: "What happened? What did you catch?"
Lin Jiu thought about the touch and his face turned pale again. "It was that green light. Did you see it when I pinched the green light and pulled it?"
Lu Yu felt his scalp tingling when he thought about the situation at that time. "I saw that you seemed to have pinched something like roots. When you were pushed away, the roots broke and retracted into the head of the awake person... What the hell is that thing?"
They did not see the green light flashing between the brows of the awake person, but they saw what Lin Jiu pulled out.
Si Xu was thinking about other things. "It seems that the bugs in the awake person's body are still there, just in a different form."
So far, neither the infected nor the conscious ones have died. Medical personnel can only determine whether the pests are still present through blood tests and physical examinations. There is no anatomical material, but if the brain can be dissected, there should be new discoveries.
But they couldn’t understand why, if there was something in the brain of a conscious person, a head scan wouldn’t detect it
No one can answer these questions, we can only wait and see the test results.
Lin Jiu and three others went to check on the man tied to the hospital bed. The man had been very quiet since he woke up. Now that Lin Jiu activated his "green light", he went back to his crazy state.
Lin Jiu: "I found a problem."
Si Xu, Lu Yu and Shi Shuqing all looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
Lin Jiu said: "When these awake people are alone, their state is very similar to hibernation. Their bodies are motionless, their eyes are blank, and their expressions are wooden. When they need to control their bodies like normal people... such as talking and walking, or making facial expressions, the green light between their eyebrows will flash for a moment before they take action, just like pressing a switch."
Three people: “…”
Lin Jiu: "I think back to it. Whether it's the little boy I saw in City A or the person with his face close to the camera on the surveillance camera, they are all in this state. They don't flash or move. They react only after flashing."
Lu Yu frowned tightly, "Are they still human now?"
Ssu: "Are the responses of awake people their own will, or is there something else controlling their bodies?"
Lin Jiu, Lu Yu and Shi Shuqing all felt numb all over.
Lin Jiu: "Alien invasion?"
Lu Yu: “…”
Shi Shuqing: "... the targets of the alien invasion are marine life?"
The first thing to be infected is indeed the mutated seafood, and humans are indirectly infected after eating the mutated seafood.
Lin Jiu: "Then this alien is too undemanding."
Lu Yu: “…”
Lu Yu: "Humanity has been brought down, and yet there is still no pursuit?"
Si Xu did not listen to their discussion about whether the "heterogeneous" had any pursuits. He walked forward and stopped at a ward. The conscious person who was facing the door lived in the ward. Si Xu looked at him through the window on the door. The man had empty eyes and a blank expression. He stood there motionless.
Si Xu looked for a while, his black pupils gradually turned silver, and he knocked on the door.
A green light appeared between the man's eyebrows, and his empty pupils came into focus. He reached out and opened the door, meeting Si Xu's eyes.
Si Xu verified his guess. It was not only Lin Jiu who could see the green light. He could see it too, but only with the eyes of the Demon Spirit Clan. In other words, Lu Yu and Shi Shuqing could not see it, only he and Lin Jiu could see it.
To put it in a broader sense, ordinary people and people with special abilities cannot see it, and it is very likely that only the descendants of the Demon Sea can see it.
If this is the case, are these pests really creatures from the Earth plane
Si Xu always felt that he didn't quite believe what the system said.
The three of them had already gone through all the alien creatures in various science fiction blockbusters, and there didn't seem to be anything similar to this pest. They wanted to ask Si Xu for his opinion, but when they turned around, they saw Si Xu almost face to face with a sober person.
Three people walked over quickly.
Lin Jiula took a step back and lowered his voice and asked, "What are you doing?"
Si Xu looked at Lin Jiu, "I can see the green light too."
Lin Jiu paused, he saw Si Xu's silver eyes.
Si Xu said: "Try again, I'll see if I can pull that thing out with my ability."
Lu Yu and Shi Shuqing were both a little confused. It was too dangerous to put these two daring people together!
This time the four were prepared, so if the sober one went crazy again, they wouldn't be in a panic.
They called medical staff over so that if anything happened to those who were awake, they could provide timely treatment.
When the medical staff heard that there was something in the brain of the conscious person and that Si Xu was going to try to pull it out, everyone looked pale.
While they were preparing, the sober person stood at the door like a wooden stake, and his eyes, which had once again focused, lost their luster.
Si Xu asked the medical staff to step back a little to prevent those who were awake from going crazy and hurting others.
Lu Yu and Shi Shuqing stood on both sides of the door. Lin Jiu held a glass jar with a lid in his hand to hold the thing.
After getting ready, Si Xu asked, "What's your name?"
A green light flashed between the man's eyebrows, as if awakening his body functions. Si Xu used his ability to grab the green light through the air and pulled it towards him!
Everyone's eyes widened in horror.
They saw many thin threads being pulled out from the pores between the eyebrows, some thick and some thin, pulled out long like roots, and the stretched pores began to ooze blood...
When the green light was caught, the sober ones went crazy. Lu Yu and Shi Shuqing took action at the same time, each holding one side of the mad man to prevent him from struggling and breaking the filaments.
Si Xu pulled very carefully, until the sober person's face was covered with blood, and finally he tore out the complete green filament!
The green filaments suddenly retracted, forming a spherical body, with countless long and thin tentacles like hair on the outside, dancing in the air. Si Xu quickly put the thing into a glass jar. Lin Jiu hurriedly covered the lid and almost threw the glass jar away because of disgust.
The green thing was squirming in the glass jar, climbing on the inner wall and crawling everywhere. Lin Jiu couldn't help it and finally threw the jar away. Fortunately, Si Xu was prepared and scooped the jar back into his hands.
"Doctor! Come and save him!" Lu Yu shouted.
The sober person who was struggling frantically fell to the ground and died with a weak breath after the thing was pulled out.
Some of the medical staff who watched the whole process had already turned around and vomited. Not to mention that the medical staff had a strong tolerance, anyone who saw this scene would be so scared that they would die on the spot! The few people who stayed behind also turned blue in the face, and they didn't care about their fear and rushed to rescue.
Si Xu left the scene to the medical staff and took the glass jar and Lin Jiu to the South China Sea Research Institute, where many authoritative experts gathered to try to conquer this suddenly appearing pest.
Si Xu found the person in charge and handed the glass jar to him directly. He also told him the origin of the thing and the process of taking it out.
The researchers' faces also looked unhappy. They couldn't imagine how this liquid thing was torn out from the pores.
The green mass was as big as an egg, and the thin tentacles on it were so waving their claws and fangs that it was enough to drive people crazy.
The person in charge looked at the contents of the glass jar, then looked at the test results on the table, and began to doubt his life.
Si Xu saw the confusion of the person in charge and asked, "Are the test results out?"
The person in charge wiped his face and said, "Just now, the green liquid tested positive for plants, but the thing in this jar looks like a living thing."
Now don’t worry about whether it is a plant or a living thing, the key point is their origin.
Si Xu: "Is it because of pests and diseases bred by seawater pollution or some other reason?"
The person in charge shook his head. "It has something to do with seawater pollution. According to our speculation, there should be a mother plant of this thing in the sea, and the tiny pests released should be 'sprouts'. These 'sprouts' are eaten by the mutated seafood and parasitize in the body. When humans eat these mutated seafood, they enter the human body. When they encounter flesh and blood, they will reproduce rapidly. As for the sudden disappearance of the pests after multiplying to a certain extent, it should not be disappearance, but condensation or combination into another form. This form should have a mimicry function, otherwise it would be impossible to fail to detect it through head scanning."
The person in charge looked at the green things crawling around in the jar and said, "Remember what this thing looks like. You'd better go to the sea to see if there is a mother plant similar to this thing. That should be the source of the disaster."
Si Xu came out of the research institute and contacted Lu Yu and Shi Shuqing, and conveyed the news of the person in charge to them. They were the main persons in charge on the South China Sea side, and Si Xu was only assisting. It was up to them to make the decision.
In the current situation, let alone contact with mutated seafood, even contact with sea water is dangerous and you might get infected.
As Country Z announced the problems with the mutated seafood at the first opportunity, several other countries followed suit and announced that similar infected people had appeared in their countries. This shows how many mutated seafood were infected and how wide the area of seawater pollution was.
What we need to deal with now is not only to solve the problem of pests and diseases in the infected people's bodies, but also the problem of eliminating pests and diseases in the ocean. If the harm caused by pests and diseases in the ocean cannot be solved, then humans will no longer be able to use marine resources.
This is not a disaster affecting just one country, but a global disaster. This thing is more deadly than unknown energy radiation. At least there is a solution to the unknown energy radiation, but there is currently no better solution to these diseases and insects.
The "Special Security Department" sent some people over one after another, and they were all waiting for instructions from above.
Fu Xi was also sent here. In order to verify his guess, Si Xu asked Fu Xi to conduct an experiment as well.
Fu Xi has fully awakened the Ruta bloodline, so he can still see the green light.
Only the three of them could see it, and Si Xu was almost certain that this thing must be related to the Demon Sea Plane.
Now Lin Jiu and Si Xu dare not act rashly.
The sober person who had some green liquid pulled out by Lin Jiu, became quiet again after going crazy for a day.
The awake man who had the green creature completely pulled out by Su was still in a coma. His brain scan results were shocking. Compared with the scan results when he was awake, his brain structure became incomplete in the coma, as if a lot of brain tissue had disappeared.
This made the medical staff who watched the scene break out in cold sweats. They had a bold guess - when the pests multiply to a certain extent, they will eat the original brain tissue and then transform themselves into a part of the brain tissue!
So the brain scan won’t show any problems. After the green thing is pulled out, the infected person’s brain tissue will be damaged!
The news quickly spread to the research institute, and everyone had a serious expression on their faces.
If this disease completely takes over the human brain, then all of that person's behaviors will no longer be that person's own, and that person's body will be completely controlled by this disease!
Soon, research results from other countries were also reported, but their progress was slower than that of Country Z, as they did not yet know that pests and diseases could camouflage themselves.
Of course, if Lin Jiu hadn't had the sudden idea to pull that thing, no one would have noticed that this thing could actually hide in a camouflage form!
After all countries communicated and integrated the research results, they all adopted the first level alert.
No one knows what will happen to these mimicking and deforming pests after they completely control the infected person's brain. If they can skillfully control the human body, once they dominate the human body and blend into human society, it will be almost impossible to catch them, because ordinary humans cannot see the green light between their eyebrows at all!
Country Z immediately gathered all the infected people together for care, and did not allow any of them the opportunity to leave the rehabilitation hospital.
The situation that experts worried about soon occurred.
On the fifth day after Lin Jiu arrived in Nanhai, a family member made a scene in the rehabilitation hospital because their child had recovered. The child called his parents and said that he had recovered and wanted to go home. The family came happily to pick up the child, but were stopped by the soldiers guarding the rehabilitation hospital.
No one doubts the love that parents have for their children, and they would do anything for their children, so they brought a group of relatives and tried to break in and snatch the children out.
The army besieged this place, and naturally they had their own orders. Except for specific personnel and medical staff, no one could enter, and patients in the rehabilitation hospital were not allowed to leave.
In order to prevent panic, the news that the pests might blend into human society as humans after completely conquering the human brain was not announced. Therefore, the children's families were unaware of the situation. They believed that their children had recovered, but they were not allowed to be discharged from the hospital and go home. All kinds of dark ideas and conspiracy theories came out, and some even claimed that the rehabilitation hospital wanted to use their children for research, making the already panic-stricken South China Sea even more restless.
In order to maintain public order, the local police could only ask the parents to go to the detention center to calm down.
After the comprehensive ban on mutated seafood, deaths caused by unknown energy radiation began to rebound. The number of deaths caused by radiation in the world has been rising day by day, and countries have had to come up with the radiation blockers they are researching.
The ingredients of the blocker are extracted from the bodies of mutated sea monsters. After injection, they can block the damage caused to the body by unknown energy radiation. However, the number of these blockers is limited and they are still in the drug testing stage. Their medicinal properties are unstable and it is not yet time for them to be promoted and used.
In the face of this disaster, countries have to temporarily introduce blockers to appease people's hearts.
But those who know the inside story know that this blocker is unstable and the quantity is too small. The mutated sea monsters that use it as an ingredient are all safe sea monsters before the pests and diseases appeared. Now no one dares to go out to sea, let alone safe mutated sea monsters.
Lin Jiu's Magic Fish Shop was also temporarily closed due to the impact of pests and diseases. The order was issued that no mutant seafood shops could open again. Lin Jiu thought that since he was not in the shop, it might as well be closed.
Now mutant seafood is not allowed anywhere. If Lin Jiu wants to open a store, he must explain the origin of his energy seafood. If he can't explain it clearly, no one will dare to eat it, and the government will not dare to open the door for him. Lin Jiu just can't explain the origin of the energy seafood, so Lin Jiu simply doesn't open the store and closes it.
Watching the live news broadcast of people flying from all over the world to queue up in order to get a dose of the blocking agent, Lin Jiu could only sigh.
The Earth plane is filled with so many disasters!
While Lin Jiu was sighing, he felt like dragging the system out and giving it a good beating. Wasn't it said that the upgrade would be fast? How come it was still upgrading after so many days
While Lin Jiu was waiting for the system upgrade to be completed, the official order from above finally came down, to go out to sea to search for the mother plants of the disease and insects.
If the diseased and insect-infested mother plants are not eliminated, the disease and insect disaster will never be averted.
Each country is currently searching in its own waters, checking its own waters first and then considering others.
The Sirens are now afraid to go into the sea, because they don't know if they will be infected with diseases or insects. The best way is to stay at sea or away from it. All those who go out to sea to search wear jumpsuits and hoods to prevent themselves from being splashed by sea water.
They don't go out to sea, but use instruments on large ships to detect the seabed. This is very slow and also puts them in danger of being attacked by giant sea monsters. In short, there are many difficulties in solving the problem of pests and diseases, but no one will stop because of difficulties. Everyone is working hard.
Finding the mother plant of the disease and insect would take more than a day or two. Si Xu did not let Lin Jiu go out with the ship. He personally led the team to search at sea.
With nothing to do, Lin Jiu could only go into the super smart kitchen to make intermediate magic meals.
Si Xu has not used the advanced gene enhancer yet. According to the reminder of the Kitchen God System, Si Xu's current semi-human body is not enough to withstand the impact of the advanced gene enhancer. Si Xu must increase his body strength, otherwise his life will be in danger.
Now the primary magic meal is of little help to Si Xu's body. The best ones are the intermediate and advanced magic meals. Lin Jiu can only make intermediate magic meals and magic wine. He can't even think about making advanced magic meals. Even if he has obtained the advanced demon hunting chef skills, he can't get advanced magic materials.
While making intermediate magic meals and magic wine, Lin Jiu also made a lot of primary magic wine.
Because the Magic Fish Shop could no longer sell seafood, and more and more people in the country were dying from unknown energy radiation, Lin Jiu was getting anxious, so he planned to sell primary magic wine.
Energy seafood cannot be sold, but energy fruit wine should be able to be sold, right
