All coastal countries have been searching for the mother strain of pests and diseases so far, but have not found anything that looks like the mother strain. Instead, they have discovered many mutated sea monsters that they have never seen before. Most of the time, they explore the seabed while being chased by mutated sea monsters, which is slow and dangerous. Now with the addition of the demon hunting system, the chances of finding the mother strain have been greatly improved.
Si Xu did not lead the team out again, and completely handed over the task of finding the mother plant to Lu Yu, who then acted alone with Lin Jiu.
The two of them were traveling on the seabed in an aircraft. Ever since they had the energy stone for making the energy capsule, Si Xu felt more confident in using the aircraft. He could make the energy capsule himself and didn't have to worry about running out of energy.
The two had been searching the seabed for a long time. The detection range of the demon hunting system was very wide, and the speed of the aircraft on the seabed was not slow. They had already searched their own sea area and did not find the mother strain. Other coastal countries did not find it in their own sea areas either. There was only one possibility, that the pests were brought out by marine organisms, and the real mother strain was likely hidden in the sea area where no one had set foot.
This guess was soon confirmed. The demon hunting system tracked the infected marine creatures all the way to a bottomless trench on the seabed. Even though Lin Jiu was a mermaid, he did not dare to go to such a bottomless trench.
The marine life from the trenches all carry diseases and pests. The mother plant should be right down there. Do you want to go take a look
They must go down. There must be a lot of dangerous marine creatures hidden in this dark trench. Even if they know there are dangers, they have to explore it thoroughly, otherwise the entire ocean will be destroyed by pests.
The headlights of the aircraft broke through the thick darkness and slowly dived.
The aircraft has its own sensing system. Lin Jiu can see from the display on the console that there are many large red dots swimming slowly in the trench. Those are giant sea monsters hidden in the trench. The outlines of the red dots are strange and bizarre. Even though Lin Jiu has not seen their true appearance, he knows that they look very casually.
Si Xu controlled the aircraft to carefully avoid the outlines of those large red dots. The speed of the aircraft became slower as it went lower.
"Is this it?" Lin Jiu suddenly pointed at a red outline on the monitor.
The huge outline was very similar to the green creature that Spyder had seen, except that the one in the trench was much larger. The original filaments on this monster had turned into something comparable to tentacles, so densely packed that it made people's scalps numb.
Si Xu stopped the aircraft and did not continue diving. He turned off all the lights. In the dark trench, silver-green tentacles danced with the sea water. A large area of silver-green looked very beautiful. In fact, Si Xu and Lin Jiu, who saw this scene, all had their hair standing on end.
They did not approach rashly, but used the aircraft's built-in camera to record the scene in the trench and quickly returned.
Lin Jiu asked the system: Did you detect anything
It is full of pests and diseases, so you must be careful when destroying it and not let its juice leak out.
Lin Jiu: Is there any good solution
Artificial destruction is very dangerous. Once the tentacles are cut off, the juice that flows out will be full of pests and diseases, and all marine life will suffer.
Now at least a small part of the mutated seafood is infected. If all marine life were infected, there would be no hope for humanity.
Lin Jiu and Si Xu returned to the South China Sea and handed over the coordinates of the trench, as well as the photos and videos they had taken, to the person in charge, who would decide how to solve the problem. This matter concerns the safety of the entire earth, and countries big and small will participate to overcome this difficulty together.
The mother plant of the disease and insect has been found, and those who are still searching overseas can return now.
Si Xu accompanied Lin Jiu to a rehabilitation hospital. The Demon Hunting System had just come back, and Lin Jiu wanted it to see these "awake ones". It didn't matter whether the Demon Hunting System had a solution or not, it would transmit the test results to the Demon Spirit Main System, and the Demon Spirit Clan would give a solution.
When I saw Qingxing again, they seemed more natural than the last time I saw them.
Lin Jiu walked along the way. The sober ones were busy with their own things, reading, watching movies, playing games, sleeping. There was also a sober one who was chatting with a nurse. The nurse's face was stiff and she looked like she was going to run away at any minute.
After all, they are no longer as empty and numb as they were at the beginning, and they are becoming more and more like humans.
Lin Jiu found a person who was awake and sleeping and asked the system to check his brain.
The system no longer requires magic points for everything. It knows that Lin Jiu will not let it go into hibernation due to lack of magic points. When it really needs magic points, Lin Jiu will provide them, and the system no longer needs to worry about collecting magic points.
After checking, even the demon hunting system was surprised.
This pest is quite interesting. Even my inspection was almost fooled by it. Its disguise is very perfect.
Lin Jiu: Can they still be saved
There's no hope. What's the point of saving him if he's already lost his brain
Lin Jiu was very worried. These conscious patients could now run, jump, talk and laugh, just like normal people. Many of their family members believed that they had recovered. If they died suddenly, their family members would be the first to not be able to accept it and would definitely make a fuss.
Moreover, the idea that the pests eat the original brain tissue and then disguise themselves as something new sounds bizarre and difficult to explain, and it is hard for people to believe it.
Lin Jiu used the demon hunting system to check on the infected who were still going crazy. This period was called the early infection period by researchers, and the awake period was the middle infection period. Since there was no hope for the middle infection period, was there still hope for the early infection period
There is hope, but it is too difficult. It is too difficult to exceed the reproduction rate of pests and diseases and eliminate them all.
Lin Jiu simply said: You transfer the data here to the Demon Spirit Main System and ask them to help think of a solution.
The demon hunting system is also very stupid. Since there is a big system over its head, it doesn't bother to think and just throws the problem to the big guys to worry about.
The boss system is worthy of being the boss. The solution was quickly fed back, and it was also the answer given by the Demon Clan.
Patients can be saved in the early stages of infection, but in the middle stages the patient would have to have a brain transplant.
The treatment method in the early stage of infection is also very simple, which is to kill the disease with medicine.
When there are pests and diseases in the body, the first reaction is to take anthelmintics, but these pests and diseases not only reproduce quickly, but can also combine, separate and mimic human tissues. Once they mimic human tissues, if one is not careful, the pests and diseases will not be killed, and the human themselves will be killed by the medicine. This is also the reason why no country has developed effective medicines so far. These pests and diseases are really difficult to deal with.
The Demon Spirit Clan may have been stuck for too long and don't want to wait any longer. Without Lin Jiu's urging, they are eager to resolve the matter.
The solution was given, and soon the formula for the killing potion was also sent over. The Demon Spirit Main System even asked the Demon Hunting System to urge Lin Jiu to solve the problem quickly so that he could find an energy depot.
The demon hunting system dutifully converted it into the Earth plane formula. As long as the potion was made, those infected in the early stages could be saved.
The demon hunting system also knows that time is life, and it converts the formula as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, there is one kind of magic material that cannot be replaced by medicinal materials on Earth. In order to make this killing agent, Lin Jiu and Si Xu have to go to the Demon Sea plane to find this magic material.
When Golofitz heard that they were going to the Demon Sea plane to look for magic materials, he was so angry that he almost crawled out of the cracks in the plane.
What are you looking for? Is there anything you want in the universal warehouse? Just take it directly from the warehouse, as much as you want, for free!
So, Lin Jiu got a batch of magic materials without spending any magic value.
Si Xu personally made a batch of pesticides and went to test them accompanied by researchers.
The researchers are actually very confused. They study day and night, but the results are not as fast as those of a non-professional.
The pesticide has been simply tested in the research institute and its effect on killing pests and diseases is surprisingly good, so we dare to use it on infected people.
There are only ten people in the first batch who use the medicine, and we will wait and see the results of their treatment to determine whether the medicine is effective.
After the injection of the killer, the infected people struggled very hard, and it took almost an hour for them to slowly calm down. Their eyesight returned to normal, and they could speak, but their mental state was very poor and their bodies were very weak.
While killing pests and diseases, pesticides also have an impact on humans.
In subsequent inspections, the pest was no longer found.
The pests were actually killed.
Lin Jiu handed the formula of the killing agent to the research institute, and also handed over the magic material that was not available on Earth, asking them to arrange people to make the killing agent. Lin Jiu and Si Xu did not get involved.
What they need to solve is the problem in the sea. How can they eliminate it without harming the mother plant
After the location of the mother plant was announced, other countries also sent people to check it out. When they came back, they all shook their heads and said it was impossible. Not to mention that they couldn't destroy the mother plant, even if they could destroy it, it was still a question whether they could defeat the mother plant.
Si Xu said: "I actually have an idea."
Everyone looked at him.
Si Xu only looked at Lin Jiu, "If my ability is strong enough, I can separate the mother plant from the outside world, drag it directly out of the trench, and then send it to the crater, throw it into the magma and burn it."
The idea is good, but it is too difficult to implement.
However, Lin Jiu understood what Si Xu meant by "strong enough ability", and he wanted to use advanced gene enhancers.
The system became a mouthpiece between them.
Lin Jiu: No, your body is not strong enough. Using it forcefully may put your life in danger.
Si Xu: I have been eating the magic meal and my physical condition is good, so nothing serious will happen.
Lin Jiu: I can't let you take risks. Since you have the ability, then I have it too. I will use the water dungeon to drag the mother plant here.
Si Xu: What I mean is that with your help, it would be difficult for me to complete the whole thing by myself.
Lin Jiu hesitated and simply said: Ask Golofitz if there is any safe and effective method.
Golofitz: "..."
Thank you so much. If you have any safe and effective method, just tell me if you want any medicine!
Therefore, before Golofitz got the energy depot, he lost another potion that enhanced his physical strength.
Golofitz issued an ultimatum.
After dealing with the mother plant, I want you to find the energy depot immediately!
Even after using potions that enhanced his physical strength, Si Xu was still in great danger when using advanced gene enhancers. Lin Jiu was so scared that he kept harassing Golofitz, asking him to find a way to reduce Si Xu's pain.
Golofitz was annoyed by Lin Jiu so much that he simply cut off contact with him, trying to avoid seeing him.
In Golofitz's view, pain is nothing, as long as he survives, it's not a big deal.
After Si Xu had fully awakened the Demon Spirit Clan gene, his eyes and blood had completely turned silver. Before the Demon Spirit Clan gene was fully awakened, Si Xu's pupils would only turn silver when he was using the Demon Spirit Clan's bloodline. Now, his pupils are silver in color as a normal state.
Si Xu turned into a real demon spirit, and the aura around him became mysterious and unpredictable. No one knew how strong he was.
Just when everyone was gearing up to go out to sea to drag the mother plant out of the trench, Lin Jiu and Si Xu received bad news at the same time.
Vera and Song Mozhi are missing.
