After that, Dr. Ron left.
"This Dr. Ron looks... quite cute?" Wu Yun, who was sleeping near Zhou Yu, got up and said.
"Whoever compares Mr. Song should look cute, right?" Li Qian also sat up with a depressed expression, "When can I go back to our base, I sleep on the floor like this every day, my waist can't take it anymore... "
At this time, Base 5 is still closed.
Song Zhi carried a small suitcase and walked in the empty passage.
The sound of his footsteps echoed alone, and through the layers of nodes, he came to the garage, started a Hummer, and left the base.
The car drove into the yellow sand.
After nearly an hour's drive, Song Zhi got out of the car, took a shovel, and shoveled the sand away, revealing a black metal door. Song Zhi opened the door with his fingerprints and walked down with a suitcase.
In the sand and dust raised from time to time, another car stopped not far from Song Zhi. After more than ten seconds, the car drove away, and the wind and sand quickly covered the traces it left.
The team led by Dr. Shen finally made a breakthrough and successfully developed antiviral drugs and vaccines.
"Dr. Shen, you are so amazing! We can finally go back to our base." Wu Yun patted Dr. Shen on the shoulder, and Dr. Shen was almost knocked down by him.
"No no no... This is not due to me alone, but also to Dr. Yao... He was too close to the truth of this virus that night, so he was..." Dr. Shen covered his face, thinking of his old partner with mixed feelings.
"But in any case, your research progress is really fast. To be able to complete the antiviral drugs and gene decryption of such a complex virus in such a short period of time, compared with you, I am useless." Zhou Qing smiled. .
"That's because when we hit a bottleneck, Dr. Jiang came. He is very open-minded, unlike us old guys who are stuck in a set. Problems that we can't figure out for days and nights, Jiang It took just a few minutes for the doctor to provide new ideas and a new approach."
"What? Dr. Jiang is here? Where is he?" Zhou Qing's eyes lit up.
"He came in the shuttle and left after only a few hours," Ron replied.
"Oh, my God! You should have introduced me to him! I have many questions about plant viruses and want to ask him for advice!" The expression on Zhou Qing's face was extremely regretful.
"But you were already asleep at the time. And... I think when the problem in the other world is solved, Dr. Jiang will be back, and you can continue to ask him the questions you want to ask," Ron replied.
Zhou Qing lowered his head and smiled helplessly. Who knows if he will survive until Dr. Jiang's next visit
"Don't think about things you shouldn't think about." Zhou Yu said.
Zhou Qing was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Yes, I should put my thinking ability in a meaningful place. However, Dr. Shen, do you think you are both 'old guys' compared to Dr. Jiang? Then Jiang How young does the doctor have to be?"
"Ah... Well... The first time I saw him, I thought he was a high school student." Dr. Shen replied.
"Oh, I hate this kind of young doctor. The younger and more talented, the more self-centered." Wu Yun held his eyes, "I'm not looking forward to meeting him."
Everyone laughed.
"I also received a call from Song Zhi just now. Since the research here has made breakthrough progress, he hopes that you will escort the virologists back to Base 5 with the research results. If you drag it on, Base 5 will be the real deal. It will become a dead city. Those who stay there will become more and more desperate, and Song Zhi will become more and more unable to control the situation.”
"Of course." Zhou Yu nodded.
"I also want to go back with you." Li Qian said.
"You? The life here is pretty good. You don't have to worry about being infected by the virus if you have butter and bread. Are you sure you want to go back?" Wu Yun asked curiously.
"Of course. The system of Base No. 5 is designed by me. If one person guards a base, it means a master like me. If Base No. 5 is really panicked, Mr. Song will need my help. If it is me, sit down You can be locked in a room in front of a computer until you starve to death." Li Qian pointed his middle finger to Wu Yun.
"I'll go back with you too." Before Zhou Yu could speak, Zhou Qing continued, "I have very important research to complete. I'm going back to my research room."
Moreover, no matter where Zhou Yu went, or no matter what happened to Zhou Yu, he hoped that he would know as soon as possible.
"Alright then, I'll go prepare the Humvee for you. Also, it's been a pleasure getting along with you all these days, and I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future." Ron shook hands with Zhou Qing and Dr. Shen to say goodbye.
A group of three Humvees drove back to the base.
Wu Yun and Zhou Yu protected Dr. Shen, Zhou Qing and Li Qian. This time, there were few accidents along the way.
Zhou Yu rested his chin with one hand, lowered his eyes, and looked at Mo Ye, who was sleeping soundly on his knees and snoring softly. He always felt that the calmness of the journey had something to do with it.
is it you? Keep those dangers away from us
Zhou Yu raised his hand and gently slid from the top of Mo Ye's head, along its neck to its back.
Mo Ye seemed to feel very comfortable, and its small wings rose and fell gently following Zhou Yu's touch.
At sunset, they finally returned to Base Five.
When the door opened, Wu Yun exhaled.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Yu asked.
"It's like a lifetime." Wu Yun replied.
The Humvee drove into the base, the gates fell, everything seemed cold and lonely, and the air smelled of disinfectant.
At the bottom of the aisle, there was Song Zhi, who was wearing a suit and was as meticulous as ever.
Behind him are two guards in protective suits.
Wu Yun blew a whistle: "Good evening, Mr. Song. You didn't wear protective clothing. Could it be that you are already infected, so you don't need to wear it?"
Song Zhi's gaze skipped Wu Yun directly and fell on Zhou Yu.
"Welcome back. We've been waiting for a long time," Song Zhi said.
The antiviral drug developed by Dr. Shen was quickly put into use, and two medical staff who had just developed symptoms of infection were rescued. The shadow of death over the entire base finally dissipated, and the epidemic was about to pass.
That night, Zhou Yu was not in a hurry to sleep, but accompanied Mo Ye to watch the movie "Ninja Turtles" in the restaurant.
Different from squatting on the table and watching movies before, now Mo Ye has learned to nest in Zhou Yu's arms, resting the back of his head on Zhou Yu's shoulder, completely treating Zhou Yu as a human-shaped sofa, but Zhou Yu actually There is no room for rejection.
"You're really going to spoil it."
I don't know when, Song Zhi came to Zhou Yu's side and put a glass of beer in front of him.
The arrival of Song Zhi made Mo Ye slightly unhappy. He pretended not to see Song Zhi and continued to watch the movie with his head up.
"It has saved me many times, and it is even more worthy of my trust than my peers."
"Are you talking about me?" Song Zhi asked back.
Zhou Yu could see the self-deprecating smile on Song Zhi's lips.
"I've always wanted to ask you, have you been sending me on purpose to carry out the most dangerous missions that are most likely to never come back?"
"I am." Song Zhi answered frankly without even the slightest hesitation.
"Why? You want me to die?"
"Because those tasks are very important to me, but ordinary people can't complete them, so I can only hope on you. If you can't complete the tasks, then no one can complete them."
"What's in it for you to complete these tasks?" Zhou Yu asked again.
"In order to convince Juli Group that I have the ability to sit in this position, I will still make the best plan for Juli Group." Song Zhi replied.
"And then? Sitting in this position all the time, will Juli Group pay you a high salary? You are not short of money, Mr. Song."
"Because only in this position can I protect what I think is most important. If another person gets this position, I'm sure he will do everything in his power to destroy what I care about." Song Zhi represented Zhou Yu Opened beer can.
"Are you bribing me?" Zhou Yu asked.
"That's right." Song Zhi smiled.
"What if one day this position can't be kept?"
"Then it can't be saved... Because, I get tired too, and there is no 'immortality' even in Nibelungen. There will always be a day when it will stop, sooner or later."
After speaking, Song Zhi got up.
Before leaving, he asked again, "Zhou Yu, do you have any opinion?"
"There is a virus in the Nibelungs too, we have to be careful. Is this a recommendation?"
"Of course. Good night." Song Zhi left.
Zhou Yu deliberately rubbed Mo Ye's belly, which was soft like cotton candy.
"Is it interesting to eavesdrop on adults?"
Mo Ye stuck out his tongue to lick Zhou Yu's cheek, but Zhou Yu suddenly stuffed something into it.
Mo Ye chewed for a while, showing a puzzled expression, opened his mouth, and the chewing gum stuck to its upper and lower teeth.
Zhou Yu laughed.
A month later, the Nibelungen jellyfish-borne virus was finally cleared from the base.
They even had a celebratory party at the restaurant, although Song Zhi just handed everyone an extra can of beer and an extra cigarette.
Joy and joy spread everywhere.
Wu Yun even held Li Qian's hand and danced a ballroom dance, although Li Qian was very dissatisfied that he could only dance female steps.
"Where's Professor Zhou? Why didn't he come to play together?" Wu Yun asked when he walked past Zhou Yu with Li Qian.
"He wants to bring back the research progress that has fallen before." Zhou Yu replied.
"Oh, these people are so boring."
On the contrary, Mo Ye was eager to try, and wanted to dance with Zhou Yu. Like coaxing a child, Zhou Yu dragged Mo Ye's front paws and accompanied it around twice. Now there are fewer and fewer people who have opinions on Mo Ye, and everyone seems to be used to seeing him haunt the restaurant.
With the rotation of circle after circle, Zhou Yu found that everything around him was not important, except for Mo Ye's eyes.
Its joy is so simple and real.
After midnight, the party was over, and everyone went back to their dorms or back to their posts.
At the moment, Carlos stayed in the research room, watching the Eidolon in the transparent petri dish intently.
During this period of time when the virus was raging, he has been guarding here, never leaving a step or contacting other people. In addition to drinking water and eating the food stored here, he was chatting with this Eidolon.
He expects that it will trust him like Mo Ye is attached to Zhou Yu.
It is close to maturity and has a very similar shape to Mo Ye. The closed eyes made Carlos wonder what would happen if they were opened.
Is it the same amber color as Mo Ye
Will he have the same high IQ as Mo Ye and be curious and longing for the human world
Carlos put his hand on the petri dish, imagining its temperature, its touch.
"What's a good name for you? If it matches Mo Ye... it's called Bai Tian? Sorry, I'm not good at naming names, maybe Zhou Yu can give you a good name."
At a certain moment, Ye Ling in the petri dish suddenly opened his eyes, it was not a clear amber color, but blood red!
Carlos took a step back in shock.
He thought he was hallucinating, so he touched his eyes. But the Eidolon did have its eyes open. Although there was no superfluous expression, Carlos saw hunger and killing intent in those eyes.
It and Mo Ye are like two sides of a mirror, one is crazy and the other is cold.
Carlos swallowed, and he suddenly had a hunch that what he cultivated was not a lovable and rational creature like Mo Ye!
wrong! Something must have gone wrong!
Carlos suddenly had a dangerous premonition.
He wanted to avoid the sight of the night spirit, but when he walked to the left, the sight of the night spirit followed him to the left.
He moved to the right, and its gaze shifted to the right.
Like a shadow.
This multiplied Carlos' sense of danger, and he seemed to be the prey locked by it.
He remembered Zhou Yu's hesitant words, and Mo Ye's dislike for this Ye Ling. Maybe everything has a reason, not a coincidence!
Carlos told himself that this mistake had to be fixed before it got bigger! No matter how Song Zhi would question his decision, Carlos knew he had to do it!
He swallowed, clenched his fists, and made a decision: he was going to go to his computer, enter instructions, and inject nerve gas into the petri dish!
He must never let it leave the petri dish alive!
Just when he made up his mind, there was a sound of glass shattering behind him. Carlos's heart tightened suddenly, he turned around, and saw that the petri dish had been broken, and the culture solution inside was leaking everywhere, making a ticking sound, but Eidolon was no longer in it.
In the top corner of this laboratory, the Eidolon was lying there, hooking its limbs vigorously to the ceiling, it turned around, the wings on its back dropped and then slowly opened, like a hellhound.
Those blood-red eyes stared at Carlos strangely, making him horrified. It seemed to know exactly what Carlos was thinking, and looked at Carlos with a mocking expression of incompetence.
Carlos took a step back. The only thing he could think of at this moment was to completely lock the laboratory and not give this guy any chance to leave.
He rushed to his computer desperately, but before his fingertips could touch the fingerprint reader, he was hit by a huge force and fell.
The moment he touched the ground, severe pain spread to his brain, and he knew that his ribs were crushed.
Carlos struggled to get up, and the Eidolon was on top of him. He saw the shadow on the ground and knew that the Eidolon was opening its wings, and in just a split second, its wings pierced into Carlos' body.
"Ah—" Carlos screamed, but soon he couldn't scream anymore.
The Eidolon bit Carlos' neck fiercely and sucked hard.
Carlos opened his eyes wide, his throat was stuck and he couldn't make any sound, and his blood was quickly leaving his body.
He was accompanied by unparalleled pain and fear of dying.
And the Eidolon guzzled his fear.
Is this Eidolon
Why is this happening
He doesn't want to die... really doesn't want to die...
The heartbeat sounded heavily in my ears, getting slower and slower.
It was all over at last, and Carlos died here with his eyes open.
The Eidolon slowly came to the side, quietly looking at Carlos' corpse with a weird smile.
Its bones made a rattling sound, raised its neck, and stretched out the taut lines, as if it had been reborn after being broken.
When it lowered its head and turned its head, its body suddenly grew by a third.
Ten minutes later, Carlos' research assistant came to the second door. He opened the first door and entered the second door. The moment he opened it, he was attacked by a lightning-like shadow. A few seconds later , This black figure closed the second door, lying patiently in the space between the two doors, it waited quietly, someone will always open this door.
Tonight at this base, a group of researchers and field personnel will end their dispatch back to the original world.
Magnetic shuttle is being checked for readings. The staff was busy, Song Zhi stood with his arms crossed in front of the countless monitors on the wall, and the bright spots caused by the data changes swept across his face.
Li Qian sat in front of the computer, with deep dark circles under his eyes. As a system designer, he must ensure that the system can support shuttle operations without any "accidents".
Although Juli Group's shuttle in the past two years has almost no accidents, the risk is much higher than the launch of a manned spacecraft, and a single reading error will cause unpredictable results.
At this moment, Li Qian, who had been dozing for two seconds due to lack of sleep, opened his eyes and saw a researcher who sent samples on the screen opened the first door of Carlos's laboratory, but was knocked down by a black Eidolon. Attack image.
Li Qian's shoulders were startled, and the coffee on the table fell down, spilling his pants. Fortunately, the coffee was already cold.
Li Qian didn't care about wiping his body, he stared at the screen on the monitor and blinked.
"Is that Mo Ye? Impossible... How could Mo Ye hurt the researcher?"
"What's wrong?" Song Zhi's voice sounded in Li Qian's ear.
Li Qian gasped and pointed at the Yeling walking slowly in the passage on the monitor and asked, "Song... Mr. Song... Is that Mo Ye?"
Song Zhi leaned down, narrowed his eyes, and looked at the screen. The night spirit seemed to sense that something was looking at it, and suddenly turned to look in the direction of the monitor.
The shocking power of those blood-red eyes made Li Qian almost fall off the seat.
Song Zhi immediately connected to Carlos' research room: "Carlos! Are you in there! Reply immediately!"
There is no answer.
"Turn on the monitoring equipment in Carlos' laboratory! Immediately!"
The mess suddenly appeared in front of Song Zhi's eyes, Carlos was lying on the ground, his head was almost screwed to the back.
Two researchers died before and after Erdaomen.
Li Qian covered his mouth and almost vomited.
"It was the Eidolon... Carlos cultivated..."
Song Zhi turned around and clapped his hands to notify everyone: "Today's shuttle mission is temporarily over! All fighters stand by!"
The news caused an uproar.
Everyone was talking about what happened.
"Send an alert order to all combatants! All researchers must lock their rooms or research rooms and must not come out!"
"Yes, Mr. Song!" Li Qian entered immediately.
"Can Carlos's laboratory still release neurotoxins?" Song Zhi asked.
"I'll take a look!" Li Qian entered the data on the keyboard, nodded and replied, "Yes. I will enter the command first, open the second door of Carlos's room, and then release the neurotoxin, but I don't know if the toxin spreads into the research room. Will the concentration in the channel be too low, and will it not work for that Eidolon?"
"Try it and you'll know."
When the neurotoxin spread and rushed towards the Eidolon, it just glanced back indifferently, allowing itself to be overwhelmed by the toxin.
A few seconds later, Li Qian and Song Zhi watched helplessly as it walked out of the fog with a leisurely pace.
"How could this be? It wasn't affected at all!" Li Qian couldn't understand at all.
"Because... it held its breath." Song Zhi clenched his fists.
"Then how long can it hold?"
"It looks so calm, it should last a long time." Song Zhi pressed his head, it hurt.
A team of special forces was rushing to the research area where Carlos was. Before they opened the door, they received a warning from Li Qian, and the Eidolon was waiting at the other end of the door.
Song Zhi took over the intercom equipment and said to them, "You don't need to hesitate after opening the door, just fire up the bullets!"
The special forces were ready, and when Li Qian used the system command to open the door, they fired wildly regardless of everything.
The author has something to say: Mo Ye: For the sake of my family, Zhou Yu, I have to sacrifice my horse!
