Chapter 45: Desert Giant Whale

Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes and searched in his mind. He suddenly thought that the digestive organs of Nibelungen jellyfish were all over its body, and Professor Chen was infected by the virus after touching this jellyfish. He suddenly had a kind of Bold understanding: "Mr. Song, is it possible that this virus evolved with jellyfish for a long time? Jellyfish directly absorb food through their own bodies, and organisms infected with this virus rot very quickly. Could corrosion allow jellyfish to save time for decomposition and make it easier to absorb bulky food?"

Song Zhiban raised his head and seemed to be thinking, nodding as he walked: "This idea is very interesting. I will send it to the headquarters of Juli Group together as a reference for Jiang Jinghang and his team."

Zhou Yu didn't say anything more, he just stood outside the isolation room, guarding his brother safely.

That night Juli Group sent a piece of information from the most outstanding virologist Jiang Jinghang.

Dr. Jiang's report is very colloquial, and does not use too many technical terms like other virologists. He gave Song Zhi two options.

The first option is to abandon the base and leave with all the personnel. But in order to avoid bringing the virus back to the human world, Juli Group did not allow them to use the shuttle to come back.

The second option is to find the mother line of the Nibelung jellyfish. This jellyfish is different from the common jellyfish. They have genders. In most cases, male jellyfish do not grow very large, just like the one observed by Professor Chen. But their maternal line, the more nutrients they absorb and the longer they live, the bigger they can grow. In theory, it is entirely possible to swallow a whole person. And this virus is produced in their maternal line. Only starting from the maternal line, it is possible to develop virus antibodies.

"What do you think, Zhou Yu? How should we choose?" Song Zhi asked.

"If it's a transfer, where can we transfer to?" Zhou Yu didn't expect Song Zhi to ask his opinion, but for him, he just wanted to do his best to save Zhou Qing's life.

"The first base established by Juli Group here was transformed into an observation station because of outdated equipment, and the supply there was enough for all of us to live for a month. After a month, if it is determined that no one of us is infected with the virus again, We can apply to go to Base 2, which is the closest to the observatory, and perform a magnetic shuttle back to the original world."

"It sounds like the most appropriate decision. But Mr. Song, you have to ask me for my opinion, it's not as simple as we thought."

"The Juli Group has studied the super healing ability and long lifespan of the creatures here. Viruses have not been included in the focus of research. And in my impression, few creatures in Nibelung are dead. However, it is obvious that this jellyfish virus can not only act on humans but also on other organisms here. It can cause a great blow to the self-healing system of organisms. Juli Group hopes to conduct in-depth research on it. , to find a way to fight this virus."

"In addition to resisting the virus, do you also want to use it to attack other creatures here as a biological weapon?" Zhou Yu asked coldly.

Song Zhi responded with silence.

If Wu Yun was here, most of them would have sighed and scolded Juli Group for wanting to control the two worlds.

Song Zhi looked into Zhou Yu's eyes and was trying to figure out his emotions. Zhou Yu was calmer than he thought, as if he had expected all this, he said calmly, "Then the question is where are you going to find it? The female line of the Nibelung jellyfish, do you want our field team to go out and catch it?"

"There's a jellyfish matrilineal specimen at Base 2. But virology at Base 2 is not cutting-edge, so I need you to escort these virologists to Base 2 with your field crew, of course at On the way, you can also send people you think are important... such as Zhou Qing, Li Qian, and even Han Li to the observation station."

"So this is a deal that made me take a risk, but paid me a reward. The reward is Zhou Qing's safety, right? Let him stay away from this virus for a while. Besides Zhou Qing, you definitely want me to drop off the rest of the base. Important personnel are also sent there, right?"

"Yes, I have a list here. We will conduct blood tests on everyone on the list before leaving to make sure they are not infected with the virus before joining your escort convoy."

"What about you? Are you leaving?"

"I can't leave, someone has to stay here."

Song Zhi handed the list to Zhou Yu, opened it, and found that Zhou Qing, Han Li and Li Qian were on the list, as well as Dr. Carlos.

"Where's Doctor Daniel?"

"He voluntarily stayed here to study the damage and effects of this virus on the human brain."

"I respect his choice, but I want to take Mo Ye away." Zhou Yu said.

Song Zhi chuckled: "Even if I don't agree, we can't keep Mo Ye."

"Then I'll go get ready. See you again, Mr. Song."

When Zhou Yu and Wu Yun met again in the mechanical warehouse, Wu Yun blew a whistle: "So are we going to escape this time? Are we desperate or crazy?"

Zhou Yu threw the magazine directly to Wu Yun, and the two tacitly arranged equipment for each other and confirmed each other.

"What are you doing with so many narcotics bombs?"

"Of course, if I encounter any creature like the Overlord Silver Spider on the road, I will throw it seventeen or eight anesthesia and pop it out, so I won't be afraid that it won't be smoked to death!"

"In this case, do I want to cooperate with you to apply for another car, which is specially used to hold anesthesia bombs?" Zhou Yu asked.

"Ah, is this ok? Of course it's the best! If there is a car of anesthesia bombs, we are not afraid of S-class creatures!"

Zhou Yu glanced at Wu Yun and turned to leave.

After arranging all the vehicles and supplies, Zhou Yu clicked on the list, but there was no Dr. Carlos.

"Does anyone know where Dr. Carlos went?" Zhou Yu asked loudly.

A doctor in the same research room as Carlos raised his hand and replied: "Dr. Carlos's research has reached a very critical stage. He closed himself in the research room and said that he should have no chance of being infected by the virus. There awaits the results of its own research."

Zhou Yu closed his eyes, he knew that Carlos's so-called research results should refer to the use of bones to copy Eidolon.

The madness of the scholar is beyond his comprehension, and at the same time he cannot stop it.

Before leaving, Zhou Yu finally confirmed the physical condition of all the researchers.

"Persons with symptoms such as fever, muscle cramps, abdominal pain, etc., please raise your hand and tell me immediately. Once we leave the base, you will not get any medical assistance. If you get sick, you will most likely die on the way." The expression was a serious voice, and it was also extremely cold.

No one raised their hands, Zhou Yu nodded: "We set off."

As usual, Wu Yun sat in the driver's seat, Zhou Yu opened the door and sat in the co-pilot's seat, but instead of closing the door, he whistled.

Not far away, a black figure came out from between the gates like lightning, and rushed into Zhou Yu's position. Because of the strength, the Humvee trembled downwards.

The researchers in the convoy behind were taken aback.

Zhou Yu patted Mo Ye's back, and Mo Ye turned around and put his two paws on the back of the chair and stretched his head to the back.

Although they were in different cars, they were subconsciously pushed back against the back of the seat by it, and they were still afraid of this A-class creature from Nibelung in the bottom of their hearts. Only Zhou Qing stretched out his fingers and gently touched the tip of Mo Ye's nose.

Mo Ye's amber eyes lit up, and he stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked Zhou Qing's fingernails.

"Okay! Everyone's here, let's go." Wu Yun drove off, followed by a few Humvees behind him.

This time, almost all the field elites in the base were dispatched for the transportation operation.

The convoy galloped through the desert, raising the dust. Putting his hand on the glass, Zhou Yu could feel that the temperature outside the car was too high. The whole desert stretches as far as the eye can see, and it seems to stretch to the end of the sky.

"I don't know what will happen to the people who stay at the base? I really hope Dr. Carlos will follow us..." Zhou Qing said.

"Although Mr. Song is usually quite annoying, he didn't expect that this time he did not flee the base, but chose to stay behind." Li Qian also said.

"Actually, do you think Mr. Song is very strange. He is obviously a person with integrity and principles, so I don't understand why he is so dedicated to Juli Group? All his considerations are based on Juli. The group is the priority, even if I heard that he was the adopted child of the group chairman, it wouldn't be like this... It's like he was brainwashed." Han Li also said.

"Stop, stop! Don't say anything nice about Song Zhi to me! Zhou Yu and I have almost died outside several times, and any task he gives is fatal." Wu Yun wanted to shoot Song Zhi for a long time. To.

"Then don't mention Mr. Song... But what I worry most about is the virus. We have limited vehicles, and not everyone can leave. Those who didn't have time to evacuate from the base are all in the quarantine area, but they don't know the disease. What will happen to the spread of the virus? When we get the antibodies from Base 2 and come back, will the base become a dead city..." Han Li frowned, there were too many things in her heart.

"Don't think so much, even if this is not a human world, there is one sentence that still applies, that is, everything is the arrangement of fate." Zhou Yu said.

Han Li couldn't help laughing: "No way, Zhou Yu, you are a model of our base fighting against fate!"

After driving for two or three hours, they have officially entered the hinterland of this desert. The convoy formed by a dozen vehicles is like ants to this vast desert, as if it will be submerged at any time.

"Hey, how can I drive like this, except for sand or sand, I can't even see a small bug. I really want to smoke a cigarette to refresh myself." Wu Yun yawned.

But everyone knows that even if it seems that there is nothing outside the window, it is absolutely impossible to roll down the window.

"Do you want coffee?" Zhou Yuyang took the hot water cup that Yang had prepared a long time ago.

"Forget it, that kind of foreign stuff tastes like Chinese medicine. I can't stand it, so Song Zhihao took a sip." Wu Yun shook his head.

Looking at Zhou Qing and Li Qian in the back seat, they both fell asleep leaning against each other.

Even Mo Ye, who had been lying on Zhou Yu's lap, yawned and burrowed his head into Zhou Yu's chest, as if he had fallen asleep.

It made a few small whispers from time to time, as if it was dreaming something.

Wu Yun glanced at it enviously and said with a smile, "Zhou Yu, what did it dream about in its dreams? Is it an action movie? Or a watermelon? Or maybe it dreams of returning to the human world with you."

Zhou Yu chuckled: "Does research show that Nibelungen creatures can dream?"

"You really don't have a sense of humour, it makes me sleepy. Hey! Why don't you tell me why these cars don't have autopilot settings, so I just drive in one direction, close my eyes, and sleep with you guys. , anyway, in the vast desert, it won't hit anything."

"Stop dreaming, wake up early, there are no human satellites in the world of Nibelungen, how can you let you drive automatically?"

Even so, Wu Yun was still very sleepy. He drank all his coffee, and it seemed that he still didn't use it much.

Just when Wu Yun was drowsy, Zhou Yu next to him suddenly pushed hard: "Wu Yun, what do you see in front of you?"

Mo Ye, who had been resting on Zhou Yu's lap, suddenly straightened his back and raised his ears, as if he was alert to something.

Wu Yun suddenly woke up. He narrowed his eyes and looked forward attentively, only to realize that the sand dunes a few hundred meters in front seemed to be moving, as if something flew up and jumped from the gravel, and the whole desert seemed to become a desert sea, and some huge creatures swim in this ocean.

It was not until the moving sand dune got closer and closer that they realized that it was a huge creature, the size of a whale, like a Kunpeng spreading its wings, sometimes gliding a short distance in the air, and then slamming into the gravel, as if Swimming like water, and then jumping out of the gravel.

As it glides through the air, its mouth opens, as if one bite could swallow the entire convoy.

The people in the car, with their wide eyes, could clearly see the throat of the creature when it opened its mouth, and the jagged bones between the throats.

"What the hell is this...?" Li Qian, who seldom goes out to work, opened his eyes and hardly dared to breathe.

The speed of that giant creature was getting faster and faster, and it was about to come to Wu Yun's eyes. The sand spewed out of its big mouth when it was breathing fell on Wu Yun's front car glass, as if to kill them. All blown away in general.

Zhou Yu suddenly shouted: "Turn the direction!"

Wu Yun immediately adjusted the steering wheel, increased the horsepower, tried to bypass the behemoth, and used the walkie-talkie to notify the team behind; "Turn the direction! Immediately! Immediately!"

A large piece of sand was raised by the wheel, and the angle of the car's rotation almost threw everyone out. Li Qian's face hit the glass, but he couldn't even scream. Zhou Qing frowned, raised his hand and clasped the armrest on the roof, his whole body was pressed on Li Qian's body, and Han Li was pressed on Li Qian's body.

The convoy behind followed Wu Yun's big turn, drawing arcs in the desert.

The raised flanks of the giant creature blocked the sunlight, leaving a huge shadow in the desert. The sand dripped down like a cascade of waterfalls. The roaring sound seemed like the sky was about to fall, and the visual experience was indescribable.

"My... my mother!" Han Li was sitting on the side of the car that was close to the creature, and she had the illusion that she was about to be crushed.

Wu Yun narrowly avoided the flank of the behemoth, and the dust it brought up almost overturned the car.

If it is even a second later, they will be suppressed by it, and the consequences are unimaginable.

"This is a desert giant whale. Their attack power is not large, but their size is huge. Every spring and summer, they will migrate in the desert. In spring, they like places with abundant sunlight, and sunlight can help them digest. , and the cubs born under the strong sunlight are stronger. But in summer, they need to go to the oasis in the desert to find water sources to survive, otherwise they will dehydrate and die." Zhou Yu replied.

"I'm not interested in their habits or names! I just want to be sure, will they want to eat us?" Wu Yun asked loudly, and now everyone is no longer sleepy.

"No. If they will die, it's just because we were crushed to death on their migration path. By the way, they are only B-class creatures."

"What such a big man is only a B-level creature, Zhou Yu, are you kidding me!"

At this time, they saw that there were more than a dozen small giant whales sliding in the desert behind the huge desert giant whale. The scene was spectacular.

Not only Wu Yun's car, but also everyone in the team behind watched it all. In comparison, the wildebeest migration of the Discovery Channel is nothing at all. This may be a scene they can only see once in their lifetime, but it is also a deadly scene.

At this time, Mo Ye, who was lying on Zhou Yu's knee, suddenly pressed his head against the profile of Ding Zhou Yu, as if to remind him of something.

Zhou Yu frowned. He rubbed Mo Ye's head with his hands while thinking, "Why do I think these giant desert whales are not only migrating, but more like avoiding something?"

"Come on! Come on! Don't scare me anymore. Even if the giant desert whales are B-level creatures, the things that can scare them away must be A-level or higher creatures. In that case, are we still alive?" Wu Yun glanced at Mo Ye, reached out and pinched its little face, "But we still have Mo Ye, Mo Ye is also very powerful, right!"

Mo Ye seemed to enjoy Wu Yun's praise, and for the first time let Wu Yun pinch his face.

The moment he raised his head, Wu Yong looked into the distance forcefully, as if there was something connected in front of the heaven and the earth, but it was too far to be recognized: "What is in front of it?"

Zhou Qing picked up the binoculars and looked into the distance, shouting: "Oops, it's a giant tornado! Those desert giant whales must be escaping from the tornado!"

"Damn, there is also a tornado in Nibelungen? What is the weather forecast of Juli Group?"

Wu Yun shouted, stepped up the accelerator, and turned the car in a direction that was almost parallel to the migration direction of the desert giant whales.

"It's said that Nibelungen has no satellites, so what's the weather forecast!" Zhou Qing replied.

Li Qian was about to cry, so he managed to escape the desert giant whale, and the super tornado came again: "I have an almanac on my computer! I just forgot to read it when I went out today!"

"It's really not as safe as being suffocated in the base!"

"I'd rather be crushed to death by a monster than being infected by a virus!" Li Qian had seen too many tragic situations after being infected with a virus. If he wanted to die, he would rather die directly.

The entire convoy turned around again and drew a horseshoe-shaped trace in the desert.

But the tornado behind them was getting closer.

The team was already at full power, but there was an illusion that it was about to be swept away by the wind and sand.

"It's over! Our speed is far worse than that of a tornado!" Han Li turned his head and looked at the tornado that was getting clearer and clearer. It was spinning between heaven and earth, increasing its strength, as if to make this desert Take things to the sky.

The group of desert giant whales are also getting farther and farther away.

At this moment, Mo Ye suddenly patted the car window with his paw.

"Mo Ye, what do you want to do? You can't go out now, you will be swept away!"

But Mo Ye glanced at Zhou Yu and continued to claw at the glass window, very determined to go out.

"Is there anything Mo Ye can do?" After so many experiences, Wu Yun no longer regarded Mo Ye as a new-born pet.

Zhou Yu also looked into Mo Ye's eyes, trying to understand his emotions. Mo Ye was firm, even certain. Zhou Yu knew that Mo Ye had a speed that ordinary creatures did not have, and it was possible to escape the tornado with it.

If possible, Zhou Yu also hopes that Mo Ye can live well, no matter what the cost.

Zhou Yu quickly opened the car window and pushed Mo Ye out. Before the yellow sand filled the sky could be seen clearly, Mo Ye had disappeared.

A large amount of sand was poured in, blowing Zhou Yu's face, and he had to quickly roll up the window again.

"What happened to Mo Ye, did it escape?" Zhou Qing asked.

Zhou Yu knew that with Mo Ye's character and persistence, it was impossible to leave him alone, but what was he going out for

The author has something to say: Mo Ye: How could I leave my Zhou Yu!
