As soon as Thompson entered the laboratory, his eyes immediately went straight.
Similar to the B7-3 laboratory that studies aliens, the B7-2 laboratory also designed an extremely strict biological isolation room. At this time, Thompson just entered the laboratory and saw a dark red creature in the isolation room at a glance. Red, monster lying on the wall!
This monster looks very similar to a human, but it crawls on all fours. There is no trace of skin on the whole body, and only the dark red muscles are exposed to the air. The two forelimbs were highly evolved, forming sharp claws that were over a foot long. They shone with cold light, and the walls made of special steel were covered with shallow scratches!
"Oh, what kind of monster is this!" Thompson hugged his head, showing a look of shock. He instinctively walked quickly to the glass of the isolation room, put his hands on the glass and observed the monster infatuatedly. , while observing, he said excitedly, "Well-developed muscles and sharp forelimbs, but I can see human characteristics in him!"
"In fact, they are indeed human beings." Feng Lun, who also understands English, couldn't help but say, "We used death row prisoners as experimental materials and combined them with an RNA virus to create something."
"Virus? I know that the company's T-1 and T-2 viruses exist. Is it this kind of virus?" Thompson asked in shock.
"That's right, but T-1 and T-2 are just weakened versions of the real T virus." Feng Lun sighed, turning to look at Zhang Heng, "Director Zhang, do you need to see our research records?"
Zhang Heng nodded, and there was a trace of emotion in his eyes - when he was on his first mission on the Dimension Star, the boss he encountered was the Licker. However, compared to his once weak self, the Licker is now just a licker in his eyes. He's just a little guy who's no different from a zombie.
The memories in Zhang Heng's eyes disappeared in a flash without anyone noticing. Kong Zhong beside him picked up a few CDs and put them into a projector on the wall. Suddenly, the huge screen on the wall began to show the story about licking. or the manufacturing process.
The first thing that appeared on the screen was a strong, bald man about thirty years old. The bald man had two scars on his face. He was wearing a yellow prison uniform. The clothes were open and you could see tattoos all over his body. He had all kinds of fierce tattoos and was held between two clone warriors, struggling and screaming.
Zhang Heng saw the words 'Haizhou Tilanqiao Prison' on the clothes of the bald man.
The bald man looked horrified, but he was stripped naked by several cloning researchers and sent to the sterilization room. After sterilization, he was fixed on an iron bed.
Then the camera switched, and the next scene showed a tube of spiral virus being injected into the man's vein using an MIT needle-free syringe. The man's eyes were bulging, with a look of despair on his face.
In the third scene, the man has been locked up in an isolation room, but he keeps struggling on the iron bed. He seems to be in a manic state, and he doesn't even notice that his wrists and ankles are dripping with blood.
In the fourth scene, the man's skin turned gray, his pupils lost their luster, and he was fixed on the iron bed motionless as if he had completely lost consciousness. However, when the researchers entered the isolation room, the man suddenly turned his head, bared his teeth and drooled at the researchers. The personnel roared. At this time, this man is no longer a human being, but a complete zombie!
In the fifth act, researchers injected the zombie man with high-concentration nutrient solution every few hours and asked the man to eat a large amount of raw meat that was also infected with the T virus. A few days later, all the skin on the zombie's body fell off, revealing the growing muscles inside and the ever-changing body. At this time, the so-called zombies had begun to show signs of becoming lickers.
In the sixth act, the monster that began to transform into a licker was captured in a tool similar to an incubator, and then released a week later. This death row prisoner has successfully transformed into the licker it is today.
These shots are all cut and can briefly describe the manufacturing process of the licker. As for the specific links and data, Zhang Heng can also look up those, but it is completely unnecessary for him.
"This is the process of cultivating lickers according to the data." Kong Zhongcai sighed, "In fact, they are just completely mutated zombies. The main ability of the T virus is to speed up human metabolism. Humans infected by T will become only instincts The living dead have a high appetite and need to continuously consume food to meet the body's rapidly mutating requirements. Because the metabolism is too fast and the food requirements cannot be met, the human body will decay and become the lowest level of zombies."
"But if enough food is taken in, the infected person's body will mutate like this. Coupled with special incubator adjustments, it will become a healthy and complete crawler."
"The method of making lickers is indeed simple, and studying it can better understand the characteristics of the T virus, but what I want to ask is... can lickers be controlled?" Zhang Heng suddenly asked.
"Uh, no." Kong Zhongcai was stunned and quickly shook his head, "Although the intelligence of this kind of thing is higher than that of zombies, it is at most the level of a wild beast, and there is no possibility of domestication."
Zhang Heng snorted coldly, "Domesticated? Do you think I want this thing to be used as a police dog?"
Feng Lun on the side winked at Kong Zhongcai and said to Zhang Heng, "I understand what you mean. You are talking about the controllability of biological weapons. We need time for this."
"No need to waste time." Zhang Heng shook his head. Under the surprised gazes of the three people, Zhang Heng directly pressed the flame destruction button on the control console of the isolation room. Suddenly, plasma flames exceeding tens of thousands of degrees suddenly sprayed out from the roof of the isolation room. When it came out, the licker didn't even have time to let out a scream before it was roasted to char by the high temperature!
After doing all this, Zhang Heng looked at the two of them coldly, "The Licker is completely a failure in the products of the T virus. Just destroy it. At the same time, I also hope this is the last time. The T virus is not a toy. You can play with it if you want. , but it must be on the premise of fulfilling my requirements, understand?”
Only then did Feng Lun and Kong Zhong show their embarrassment. Indeed, Zhang Heng's original order was to first create a BOW organic biological weapon according to the T-virus records, and then slowly reverse engineer the T-virus, and finally eat it thoroughly.
The so-called biological weapon here actually refers to the 'Tyrant', because the Licker clearly stated in the information that there is no possibility of control at all. Only the more advanced and powerful biological weapons like the 'Tyrant' have the value of control and mass production. .
Feng Lun and Kong Zhongcai could have directly created the tyrant, so as not to delay the production of biological weapons, but they did not follow Zhang Heng's orders. In order to better understand the T virus, they first created the Licker. Monsters whose virus fusion is not perfect can make the characteristics of the T virus more intuitive.
However, although this method satisfied their curiosity to understand the T virus, it delayed Zhang Heng's order.
"Okay, you two can continue to study aliens. Regarding the T-Virus organic biological weapon development plan, I will leave full responsibility to Professor Thompson." Finally, Zhang Heng gave an order that the two of them could not accept.
"Director Zhang, please don't..." Feng Lun suddenly became anxious. Although the research on aliens was being carried out every day, it had already fallen into a bottleneck. Generally, the apprentices would finish their experiments every day, and it would be enough for the two of them to just look at the experimental data, and The T-Virus is undoubtedly more tempting than the slow progress of alien research!
"Director Zhang, we know we were wrong. From now on we will definitely put work first and hobbies second." Kong Zhongcai also blushed. You know, they are both in their sixties or seventies. They had to apologize to a twenty-year-old kid who didn't have all his hair. Originally, this was impossible, but in order to study the T virus, the two of them couldn't care less.
Zhang Heng ignored the two of them and looked at Thompson aside, "Professor Thompson, can you complete it alone?"
"Let the two of them join. I know these two, they are both top biologists in the world. With their help, I will definitely be able to complete it as soon as possible." Thompson's eyes also showed excitement, and he could get the research director of T virus. Regarding the location, Thompson felt that this trip was really worth the money and there was no dissatisfaction at all.
Feng Lun and Kong Zhongcai also looked happy and looked at Zhang Heng expectantly.
Zhang Heng ignored the two men and turned around and walked out of the laboratory. Feng Lun and Kong Zhongcai were completely discouraged, showing disappointment and regret.
"It won't happen again." At this moment, Zhang Heng's cold voice suddenly came over.
The two of them were stunned for a moment, then suddenly became energetic. They looked at Zhang Heng's back and thanked him again and again, saying that they would never make similar mistakes again.
"Okay, two colleagues, please show me the detailed information now, and then we will make a plan." When Zhang Heng left, Thompson turned his head and said eagerly to the two of them.
