Zhou Yu touched its head and said: "Humans are like this, they are very fragile. For example, if I was hit in the head, I would die immediately. If I was hit in the heart, I would die very quickly. The femoral artery… Even with an experienced surgeon around, the chances of surviving are slim. This is human, not like you.”
Even if his healing ability is much stronger than that of ordinary people because of the S-class creature, this healing ability may not always exist, and may disappear with the body's metabolism. In any case, compared to Mo Ye, he was still too fragile.
Mo Ye stepped back and leaned into Zhou Yu's arms.
Mo Ye, do you know what "sad" is
"Sad" and "hurt" are not the same thing.
Mo Ye, like many creatures in Nibelungen, your healing ability is very strong, and nothing can really "wound" you.
But if something you care about is gone from now on, you'll be sad.
Sadness, there is no healing.
"Well..." Mo Ye murmured softly.
Zhou Yu paused, why did he feel that Mo Ye heard what he was thinking
In the days that followed, Zhou Yu did not go out on a mission, and often drove Mo Ye around the base in a Hummer. Although it looked like a desert, Mo Ye was very happy even playing with sand.
Until the sun has fully risen and the weather is too hot, Zhou Yu will wave his hat to signal Mo Ye to go back with him.
Mo Ye's originally waving wings and ears would droop down.
Zhou Yu rubbed Mo Ye's head amusingly while driving the car: "What's the matter? Go back and I'll find you a watermelon to eat?"
Mo Ye stayed there and ignored Zhou Yu.
Because Zhou Yu also promised Han Li to teach her to shoot.
Once in the shooting room, Zhou Yu concentrated on teaching Han Li hand in hand, leaving Mo Ye behind.
It squatted there unhappily, staring at Zhou Yu's back.
"Han Li, pay attention to your center of gravity."
Although Zhou Yu was very close to Han Li, apart from covering up for her, he had never met Han Li. This is also the reason why Han Li chose Zhou Yu as his shooting coach. In a base where there are many males and females, female doctors like Han Li will always cause a lot of trouble if they are too close to the same sex.
But Zhou Yu is different, he is restrained, and he is a real gentleman in his bones.
This is where Han Li trusts him most.
Han Li fired several shots, but it was really bad at first, Mo Ye yawned and even grabbed Zhou Yu's calf with his claws, but Zhou Yu didn't look back, just raised his heel and rubbed against Mo Ye. chin.
Han Li lowered his head and couldn't help but smile: "Zhou Yu, I think if you stay with Mo Ye all the time, you will never want to marry a wife in this life."
"what?"
Mo Ye directly arched Zhou Yu's back with his head, Zhou Yu knew that it was impossible to continue teaching Han Li how to shoot today.
"You king of destruction." Zhou Yu lowered her body and picked up Mo Ye's ears.
Mo Ye pretended to be in pain, made a "woooo" sound, and grabbed Zhou Yu's arm with his front paws.
"You pretend! You keep pretending!"
With Mo Ye's strength, it was easy to break free from Zhou Yu.
At the same time, the intercom in Zhou Qing's laboratory sounded.
"Hello, I'm Ruoshui Chen from the Department of Marine Biological Research. I have some ideas about Nibelungen marine plants that I would like to discuss with Professor Zhou."
Professor Chen Ruoshui's name Zhou Qingzao had heard of it, and a surprise surged in his heart, he immediately opened the first door, and went to greet him with his research assistant Xiaowen.
At the moment when the second door opened, before Zhou Qing could say hello, Professor Chen fell straight on Xiaowen's body, twitching all over, and the temperature was very high.
"Professor Chen! Professor Chen, what's wrong with you!"
Xiaowen just touched Professor Chen's forehead and was frightened by the temperature: "Professor Zhou! Professor Chen has a fever! It's serious!"
"What?" Zhou Qing was dumbfounded. In the walkie-talkie just now, Professor Chen's voice sounded normal. Why did he suddenly have a fever
Zhou Qing immediately contacted the medical team and sent Professor Chen away.
He stood there with an ominous feeling that something was stirring.
And Han Li's walkie-talkie sounded in the shooting room, and the medical team asked her to rush to the emergency room immediately.
"It looks like I won't get better today." Han Li handed the gun back to Zhou Yu and left in a hurry.
Professor Chen's rescue work was not smooth. At first, the medical team thought it was just a simple fever, but with the rapid deterioration, Professor Chen developed internal bleeding and muscle weakness and decay.
Han Li, who was in charge of the rescue work, became alert: "This can't be a simple fever! This is a symptom of hemorrhagic fever!"
"It's not... Nibelungen has Ebola, right?"
"Everything is possible!"
Professor Chen's blood sample was sent to the laboratory for virus testing. After testing, there was a certain virus in Professor Chen's blood. More importantly, its infectiousness was unknown but the replication rate was extremely high.
Before the test results were delivered to Han Li, Professor Chen had suffered respiratory failure and died in extreme pain. His entire body seemed to melt into blood, which was shocking.
Han Li's back was wet with sweat and her heart was beating heavily. She immediately made a decision: "All medical staff involved in the rescue and those who have been in contact with Professor Chen are all isolated!"
The base issued a red alert, requiring all personnel to stay in their rooms and not to move around at will.
Li Qian closed all the nodes of the base, and all departments of the base were completely closed.
Zhou Qing was trapped in the research room, and his researchers were very nervous because they had all stepped forward to take care of Professor Chen when he fell. No one could be sure when Professor Chen was infected. , who of them had been in contact with him before the infection, and because of this, the researchers all sat in their respective corners, neither communicating nor speaking to other people, especially when it was not determined how the virus spread case.
Zhou Yu and Mo Ye just returned to their room. It was the first time that Mo Ye heard the red alarm. It straightened its back and held the alarm light with the tip of its nose, looking very curious.
At this time, most people still don't know what happened to the base.
Zhou Yu called Song Zhi's room: "Mr. Song, what happened? Did a dangerous creature invade the base?"
Song Zhi didn't hide anything from Zhou Yu, and answered him directly: "It's worse than that. The researcher in the base was infected by an unknown virus. We are now testing this virus to try to find the pathogen, and if possible, produce antibodies. But in the short term, the situation is not optimistic.”
All this happened too suddenly. For Zhou Yu, the moment he brought Mo Ye to play in the base a moment ago, everything changed.
"Is my brother Zhou Qing okay?"
"Professor Zhou has not shown signs of being infected yet."
Hearing Song Zhi's answer, Zhou Yu was slightly relieved. He didn't know how long the waiting process would take? When will they be able to lift the lockdown? If it is only closed for one day, it will be fine. If there is no food supply and no water for two or three days, they will all die.
Zhou Yu turned Mo Ye over and shook it in his arms: "Do you know what the virus is?"
Mo Ye still looked at Zhou Yu with wide eyes, and suddenly he threw Zhou Yu onto the bed with a force, grabbed two small claws on Zhou Yu's shoulders, and rubbed the tip of Zhou Yu's nose with his nose. The tongue came and went to lick Zhou Yu's mouth, Zhou Yu quickly turned his face to avoid it.
"Only you, this little thing, still has such a leisurely mood at this time." Zhou Yu shook his head helplessly.
Mo Ye has grown a lot, and its two hind legs are directly attached to the sides of Zhou Yu's waist, as if half sitting on Zhou Yu's body.
Zhou Yu patted its back and whispered, "Okay, okay, get up for me, you are heavy."
Mo Ye suddenly showed a dissatisfied expression, did not move, and deliberately increased his strength to suppress Zhou Yu, as if to say: You lied, I am not serious at all, I will punish you.
Zhou Yu simply didn't move, and let Mo Ye lay on him. He sighed: "It seems that the virus is not unique to our world..."
Mo Ye leaned down and pressed his face against Zhou Yu's cheek.
This kind of intimacy and temperature made Zhou Yu, who was worried about Zhou Qing, relax a little.
At this time, Song Zhi received a report from Han Li, and the situation became more serious. The two medical staff involved in rescuing Professor Chen both developed symptoms such as high fever, body festering and internal bleeding.
Han Li said to Song Zhi with a trembling voice: "Mr. Song, I have also had direct contact with Professor Chen, and I think I can't escape this time..."
"Please don't be too pessimistic, take a ten thousand steps back and say that if you really show up here, all the promises that Juli Group has made to you will be fulfilled." Song Zhi's voice sounded calm, but he was half-hearted. He raised his forehead, trying his best to suppress his tense breathing.
"Thank you!" Han Li's tears fell.
When the communication was interrupted, Song Zhi opened his drawer with his eyes closed, and put his hand in as if to touch something, but he finally took it back.
At the same time, Li Qian, who was trapped in the surveillance room, witnessed everything from the surveillance video. He saw how Professor Chen died and how the infected medical staff struggled in pain.
But even so, Han Li firmly put on protective clothing, treated the infected medical staff as much as possible, and accompanied them to face the last moment of death.
During this period of time, Han Li has been waiting for the worst result to come. Her recent health is not very good, she has a cough and cold, and her immunity is low. Although she is far away from the researcher who was rescued, she knows that, The virus is supposed to be airborne. The chances of not being infected yourself are very low.
The medical staff infected with the virus died one after another. In the end, only Han Li was left in this department. She simply took off the isolation gown, took out a bottle of nutrient solution from the refrigerator and took two gulps. Sit down against the wall.
The entire rescue room was dead silent, and there was no one else except Li Qian who accompanied Han Li through surveillance.
"Hey! Li Qian sing a song and listen!" Han Li closed his eyes and patted the ground with his hands tiredly, and said loudly.
Soon, Li Qian's voiceless singing came from the radio.
Han Li showed a funny expression: "My God, when you sang it like this, I don't even remember the tune of that song!"
When Li Qian finished singing a song, Han Li hugged his knee and burst into tears.
"I want to live, I really want to live!"
Li Qian couldn't say a word of comfort, and could only be sad with her before the surveillance.
At the same moment, Xiaowen, a research assistant in the same research room as Zhou Qing, was lying on the table and started moaning. His body looked very hot, Bai Gua was completely sweaty, and his ears were bleeding.
The researchers fell into panic, and they all stuck to the wall, far away from Xiaowen.
"He is the only one among us who has direct contact with Professor Chen! He must be infected!"
Zhou Qing swallowed, and just as he was about to step forward, another researcher said, "Professor Zhou, be careful!"
At that moment, Xiaowen fell to the ground, his body was paralyzed like a pool of stagnant water, and he could even smell the smell of decay in the air. His eyes, nose and ears were bleeding, and his face was pale and painful.
The researchers couldn't help being excited. The desire to survive made them rush to the second door, slammed the door hard, and shouted loudly: "Let us out! Let us out!"
But at this moment, Li Qian, who was operating the system, was tracking what Professor Chen, who was the first to get sick, had been in contact with all day.
According to Han Li's calculations, it took Professor Chen less than 3 hours from the start of high fever symptoms to the final death. The medical staff who rescued him took only two hours from contact with him to the appearance of high fever symptoms, that is to say, the incubation period of the virus from being infected to the onset was not long.
From the beginning of breakfast to the time Professor Chen entered the research room, everything seemed normal, so Li Qian called out his monitoring in the research room.
In his laboratory, there is a sea creature that looks like a jellyfish, but it has a different appearance than ordinary jellyfish. Like a golden veil, it dances gracefully in a petri dish, and it has some kind of synapse on its surface. This synapse can emit a strange biological static electricity, which makes the person who touches it feel happy and relieved.
This jellyfish has a very simple name, that is Nibelungen jellyfish. It can survive in fresh and salt water. More importantly, in the absence of water, it can still stretch its body like an umbrella, waiting to catch its prey at any time. But its prey are generally some small insects or aquatic creatures, and they do not have any lethality.
Li Qian saw Professor Chen put his fingers into the glass dish with Nibelung jellyfish. The jellyfish gently stroked him with her synapse, and his face showed a very nostalgic expression as if he was addicted.
After more than ten seconds, he finally retracted his finger, subconsciously put it in his mouth, and then continued his observation and research. Then he left the laboratory and went to Zhou Qing's laboratory with a certain document.
Li Qian reported the news to Song Zhi as if he had discovered a new continent.
The base's virus research team immediately went there fully armed to sample the Nibelung jellyfish. On the same day, they discovered that there is a certain virus in the body of this jellyfish. This virus was originally transmitted through contact, but after entering the human body, it quickly began to mutate, adapted to the new environment, and became available through the air. spread.
At this time, Zhou Qing stared blankly at all the researchers who started to have a fever, which was a sign of infection with the virus. They fell around him and tried to open the door with difficulty. Only Zhou Qing was still standing. This Shura hell seems to have nothing to do with him.
His thoughts were in chaos, and he didn't know how to move his feet.
When will he fall
When will the fever start
What does visceral bleeding feel like
Fear slowly poured into Zhou Qing's heart.
"Don't be afraid..." A voice in his mind, as if passing through the dust and fog, landed in his heart.
Zhou Qing looked around subconsciously.
"At least you don't get the virus."
That voice was soft, soothing Zhou Qing's nervous mood.
"Then... save them... please save them too..." Zhou Qing prayed.
He knew that the S-class creature that had saved him was somewhere, and he knew everything, knew everything.
"I can't. You don't get infected just because you're special, not because of me."
"Special? What's special about me?"
But after more than ten seconds, Zhou Qing did not hear any answer.
Li Qian watched Zhou Qing talking to himself alone in the center of the research room through the screen, as if he was about to collapse, he implored Song Zhi anxiously: "Mr. Song - please release Professor Zhou immediately, Before he is infected with the virus!"
Song Zhi's brows furrowed: "You mean that Professor Zhou is still safe and sound? What about the other people who are locked in the same laboratory as him?"
"All... all have fallen!"
Song Zhi clasped his fingers tightly, showing a puzzled expression: "This is impossible! If everyone else is dead, why is Zhou Qing still alive? What about Han Li? How is Han Li's situation?"
"Han Li is okay for now. She drank a few bottles of nutritional supplements, cried a lot, and is now asleep."
Song Zhi narrowed his eyes and thought for two seconds: "Now send a medical team over and bring the two of them out for quarantine observation."
Hearing these words, Li Qian finally felt relieved. He really couldn't bear to have Han Li and Professor Zhou trapped in such an environment, and his spirit and will would be completely destroyed.
Just when Zhou Yu and Mo Ye were lying on the bed and playing boredly, Song Zhi's voice sounded from the contactor above his head: "Now open your door and put on the isolation suit outside the door, until the ninth area."
Zhou Yu got up immediately without saying a word, put on protective clothing as Song Zhi said, and Mo Ye wanted to go out with him. Zhou Yu directly put his hand on Mo Ye's head and pressed it back into the room.
Zhou Yuban knelt in front of it and said to it in a very serious tone: "Mo Ye, I don't know if this virus has any effect on you, so you can't go out and stay in my room, okay? "
Mo Ye's excited expression that he thought he could go out with Zhou Yu instantly became lonely. He looked at Zhou Yu with pleading eyes, but Zhou Yu still shook his head.
Mo Ye had to lower his head and take a half step back. Zhou Yu looked at it, closed the door, then put his palm on the door and whispered, "Good boy, I will be back."
Zhou Yu turned around and walked away quickly. When he came to the ninth district and saw Song Zhi also wearing protective clothing standing in front of the isolation ward, he stopped.
Because it was no one else in the isolation ward, but his younger brother Zhou Qing. Zhou Qing was obviously in shock. He sat beside the bed and waited for the medical staff in protective suits to draw blood for him and perform various tests.
"Mr. Song, didn't you just say that my brother is not infected?" Zhou Yu asked coldly.
"He hasn't fallen yet, especially when all his research assistants have been infected with the virus and died, should I answer you that he was infected with the virus? Now what we most want to know is that in the same In the enclosed area, all his research assistants were infected with the same virus, but Professor Zhou was safe. Why is that? Did he already have antibodies to this virus in his blood? If so, then our entire base be saved."
Zhou Qing seemed to see Zhou Yu, he turned his face to the side, and showed a smile with difficulty. Zhou Yu knew that Zhou Qing was stronger than he thought.
However, the test results made people puzzled, that is, Zhou Qing did not have any antibodies to the virus in his body, and of course he was not infected with the virus. Not only Zhou Qing but also Han Li, who is also in isolation.
And it's almost impossible to have virologists on the base decode the virus in a short amount of time.
Song Zhi packaged everything known about the virus and sent it to another world: "If only Jiang Jinghang was here."
"Jiang Jinghang?" Zhou Yu thought the name was familiar, but couldn't remember it.
"The number one position in virology under the Juli Group." Song Zhi replied.
"At this time, I suddenly feel that the outside world may be safer." Li Qian, who was sitting in front of the computer, sighed.
"Zhou Yu, the creature carrying this virus is the Nibelungen jellyfish you have seen. I want to know if you have any information about this creature from Elpis?" Song Zhi looked at Zhou Yu .
