Wang Ran returned to Donghu Island with a worried look on his face.
The more I think about this little bug, the more trouble it becomes.
Especially if it falls into the hands of people with ulterior motives.
After thinking it over, Wang Ran decided to call Beidu first.
Didn’t the North send a team to the southwest region? This would be a good opportunity to find out the situation.
Wang Ran took out the satellite phone and dialed the number Lin Liye had left behind.
"Hello, Lao Lin, it's me, Wang Ran."
Wang Ran introduced himself.
"Oh! It's Comrade Xiao Wang!"
"You need me for something?"
"I've heard that your city N withstood the zombie tide!"
"I really admire you! You can withstand a tide of millions of zombies with such manpower and weapons and equipment."
There was a sense of amazement in Lin Liye's voice, and it didn't sound like a deliberate compliment.
"Didn't you Beibu also fight off the zombies? What's there to admire?"
Wang Ran was very polite.
"That's different!"
"We in Beidu rely on the support of powerful modern weapons and equipment!"
"On the city wall, there are 10,000 people with guns alone."
"There is also air support and long-range artillery support."
"If we can't hold back the tide of flesh-and-blood zombies, where will our army's reputation be?"
"You guys were able to withstand the zombie tide with limited conditions. I really want to ask you about the situation at that time when I have time."
Lin Liye laughed.
"Right, let's get back to business."
"I heard you sent a team to the southwest to look for a kind of bug, right?"
"What's going on now?"
Wang Ran asked.
"You know all this?"
"Shit, it must be that night radio station!"
"They seem to know everything. Our secret operations were even broadcasted. Alas."
"This time we sent Zhang Guozhu to lead the team. He is the old Zhang you met last time when we went to City N."
"I hope he can come back with good news."
Lin Liye's voice was very depressed, and it seemed that even Beidu couldn't figure out the background of the night radio station.
"By the way, I don't know the specific situation of this bug, but I know that there is an organization that is definitely interested in it."
"If I'm not mistaken, they must have already set off to the southwest."
"I plan to go there in the next two days to check the situation."
"Do you have any information you can share?"
Wang Ran asked.
"this... ... "
"From a procedural point of view, these are confidential and I cannot disclose them to you."
"but... ... "
"How about this, you give the phone number to Researcher Liu. She has the right to know this information."
"If she told you, then it's none of my business."
Lin Liye is a rule-abiding person, but he also knows how to adapt.
No wonder the strength can improve by leaps and bounds.
Wang Ran walked to Liu Shiyao's laboratory.
Liu Shiyao shuddered when she saw Wang Ran.
Yesterday's experience made her a little scared.
"Don't hide, get down to business!"
Wang Ran handed the phone to Liu Shiyao.
Liu Shiyao took the phone and listened for a while, her expression becoming more and more serious.
It looks like I actually got some serious information.
Not long after, Liu Shiyao returned the phone to Wang Ran.
"Captain Lin has already told me the situation."
"This information was obtained from the captured red-eyed zombie."
"It is said that there is an insect in the southwest region that can kill zombies quickly with just one bite."
“It can be as short as a few seconds or as long as a minute.”
"Even high-level zombies can't handle it."
"And the cause of death was basically systemic organ failure."
"The current conclusion of Beidu is that there are substances in this insect that can kill the virus in the zombies."
"You know, the reason why zombies can survive and gain powerful strength is because the virus transforms their bodies and continuously provides them with energy."
"If the virus in the body dies instantly, the basis for the zombies' survival will be gone, and the zombies will quickly become exhausted and die."
"This is different from the inhibitory potion produced by the company's No. 4 Research Institute. The inhibitory potion can only limit the strength, but will not harm the lives of zombies."
"As for what would happen if a human awakener was bitten by this insect, it is still unclear."
Liu Shiyao leaked all the currently known information to Wang Ran.
Anyway, I'm not afraid of being fired now, so I'll just leak the information.
"This bug must be pretty powerful, as it can force the zombies to flee eastwards."
"Let's not talk about whether this thing is a threat to humans. Xiaoyu, Momo and Zhou Meng must not be bitten by this bug."
"I think I'd better go. I won't feel at ease until I figure it out."
Wang Ran made a decision quickly.
"I'll go with you!"
"I have done some research on insects, and the results of field research will definitely be different. It would be better for me to go there."
Liu Shiyao suggested.
"Okay..."
"But be sure to be safe."
"It's hard to say what effect this bug has on humans."
Wang Ran thought about it and decided that it was necessary to bring Liu Shiyao along.
This operation is not suitable for too many people. In addition to Liu Shiyao, it will be enough to bring one more person.
"Get ready. We'll leave in half an hour."
Wang Ran gave Liu Shiyao some time and walked out of the villa.
Who else should I bring...
Xiaoyu, Momo and Zhou Meng definitely can't do it.
Just choose one between Tang Tang and Jia Xin. Someone has to fly the plane.
Wang Ran was thinking about it when Tang Tang suddenly jumped out.
"Uncle, I've rested well, keep going!"
Tang Tang challenged Wang Ran with an arrogant look on her face.
"It's time to get down to business."
"Where's Jiaxin?"
Wang Ran asked.
"She's still on crutches!"
"Uncle, how many people do you want?"
"Do you look down on me?"
"Yesterday was an accident, today I'm in better shape!"
Tang Tang said with her hands on her hips.
"Jia Xin still can't walk, right?"
"Then it's you."
"Get ready, we'll leave in half an hour."
"This time I'm going on a business trip to the southwest."
Wang Ran gave the order.
"Business trip? Great!"
"I'm going to pack my bags!"
Tang Tang ran away happily.
At this time, Wang Ran's satellite phone rang.
"Hello, Comrade Xiao Wang!"
"Just now you said you were planning to go to the southwest region, right?"
Lin Liye's anxious voice came from the phone.
"Yes, we'll be ready to go soon."
"Why, you want to go too?"
Wang Ran asked.
"I just received a call for help from Lao Zhang."
"They were attacked by an unknown group of forces and trapped in the mountains."
"I have something to do in Beidu and I may not be able to leave until tomorrow."
"Comrade Xiao Wang, you are going there, could you please help rescue Lao Zhang and the others first?"
Lin Liye requested very sincerely.
"Did Lao Zhang and his team encounter an attack?"
"Okay, send me the coordinates and I'll be there right away!"
Wang Ran agreed.
After all, they had taken photos together, and Wang Ran didn’t want Lao Zhang and the others to get killed.
