October 18, 10 a.m.
Xiao Mo, who was squatting in the warehouse on the third floor repairing the base vehicle, was also asking Xue Lihong the same question.
He secretly tried to repair the living dead virus carriers several times, but the living dead virus, like the previous angel virus, did not infect a certain part of the human body, but invaded the whole body. Healthy cells begin to mutate after encountering the living dead virus, and the slowest mutating factor is the brain.
Now, with the addition of a new virus carrier they found, that person is also a superpower. That is, these four superpowers can still suppress the virus slightly, but they have also had symptoms such as low fever and severe headache since yesterday.
Xiao Mo can only try his best to help them improve their body immunity, that is, the virus destroys it, he repairs it, and it just keeps repeating. Now he visits those virus carriers morning and evening, pretending to check them every time, but in fact he is helping them repair them.
The comatose people didn't know it clearly, but the four who were awake definitely realized what he had done to them. This made the researcher who had the worst impression of them and even made harsh remarks to him at first, now smiled at him when he saw him. Not to mention Linghu and Kang Lu, but Linghu was more silent, while Kang Lu was more hopeful about the future.
Speaking of Kang Lu, Xiao Mo couldn't figure out one thing: "Kang Lu is Ni Wei's cousin. Ni Wei relied on his cousin to get into the base. How could he infect his cousin with the virus?"
Xue Lihong lay on the scooter and slid out from under the scooter, "Ni Weineng wanted to kill Zhang Di because of his slap in the face, regardless of the other person's help. His cousin didn't even intend to open the door. Of course, maybe his cousin just Forced, but as long as Ni Wei knows that his cousin voted in favor at that time, I am afraid he will hate her for the rest of his life. And if he wants to take power, his cousin may not only be unable to help him, but also block his way. But if Kang is exposed As Kang Lu's cousin, he has shown certain abilities, so it will be much easier for him to accept Kang Lu's resources and power."
"This person is so small-minded." Xiao Mo could only shake his head.
Xue Lihong had a different evaluation, "Even if a person like Ni Wei is a little narrow-minded, he is ruthless and vicious, and he has certain brains and means. Plus, there is a breeder system to help him. It is really hard for him to achieve hegemony." Dream. If it weren’t for his bad luck, it would be you, not him, who would die now.”
Xiao Mo exhaled and said something out of nowhere: "So what you admire more is the other me? Do you want me to replace him?"
Xue Lihong: "...Are you jealous?"
"Shit! Repair your car, don't make trouble for me again!" Xiao Mo wiped his face and continued to work on the car.
The internal structure of the base vehicle was very complex. He couldn't repair it all at once, he could only do it bit by bit.
Xue Lihong is still making trouble on the side, modifying or adding some functions to the vehicle from time to time. In addition, he also finds some precious materials from other warehouses, and adds them to the base vehicle as long as they can be added.
Of course, making trouble was just Xiao Mo's way of venting his anger. Xue Lihong would never mess around in the place he wanted to repair, but would wait until he had repaired it before considering adding or subtracting some functions.
Xiao Mo also likes mechanical manufacturing, and occasionally accompanies Xue Lihong to do it. Because of his special ability, he can detect problems in time every time and give a lot of good advice. He has really helped Xue Lihong a lot - there is still a certain gap between design and practicality. Even a genius can There is no way to avoid this problem, but it is different with Xiao Mo. If there is a problem with the newly added function, Xiao Mo can just fix it and start over. How much time has Xue Lihong saved
Cheng Zai was also very interested in this base vehicle, but he couldn't do without him in the communication room. He could only find time to hide in the toilet and use the walkie-talkie to ask questions. That's all, he had to read it first like a thief. No one dared to close the toilet door even if there was no one around.
The corners of Xue Lihong's lips twitched. His boss would act coquettishly with him now, which was good.
Xiao Mo picked up the newly repaired handle, opened the lid, and inspected the Rubik's Cube, which Xiao Hong called the engine.
This is the power source and heart of the entire vehicle, and it is also the most difficult part to repair.
If he hadn't seen the real thing, he would never have believed that a box the size of a household medicine box contained semi-perpetual nuclear kinetic energy.
Was he carrying a nuclear bomb or a nuclear bomb
However, the shell of this nuclear bomb looks perfectly fitted, just like the futuristic black technology products in movies and TV shows, with completely incomprehensible fantasy patterns engraved on the surface.
Now he knew why those Ucaiken scientists abandoned the car. First they just removed the engine from the car. If he hadn't had the ability to repair it, he could have sketched out a three-dimensional map of the vehicle's entire body in his mind. There is another friend next to me who seems to be very knowledgeable about black technology. He can't even find the engine.
Secondly, they found the main body of the engine, but how to open it
Regarding this question, Xue Lihong came over and took a look at it before saying, "Leave it to you."
So my dear Job, is there anything in this world that you can’t do? Xiao Mo, who has shouldered the heavy responsibility, can only continue to think about black technology.
The three-dimensional diagram in his mind was sketched and spread out, unable to stabilize several times. Xiao Mo was so angry that he took off his gloves and threw them on the ground. His aching brain told him that he needed to absorb another energy crystal, but he did not move.
Xue Lihong expected that the super tank could be slowly repaired and transformed. They wouldn't be able to get out in a short time anyway, but his mission couldn't wait any longer.
Seeing that there was still one day left before the mission deadline, starting from last night, as time disappeared little by little, he began to become more and more anxious. Repairing the base vehicle could not calm him down, but made him waste a lot of energy. Fixed a small spare part.
It was probably because of this anxiety that he blurted out words that Xiaohong thought were jealous.
"Do you want to take a rest?" Xue Lihong's voice reached his ears.
Xiao Mo thought for a while and put down the box, "Do you have any good ideas? I mean for those carriers of the living dead virus?"
"Kill them all."
"... What about other than that? Imagine if the person lying there was you or me."
Xue Lihong sat up, "Then others will kill us. Of course, if I can still move at that time, I will definitely resist."
"Maybe we can tell them the truth and then..."
"It's okay to tell them the truth, but then what are you going to do? Give them a gun so they can blow their own heads off before they turn into zombies? Boss, have you watched too many zombie movies? And you don't want to complete the mission anymore. ?”
"Then what do you say? Do you really want to kill them like this? If they have turned into zombies, there is nothing to say. I will deal with them without you urging me, but now... they still have hope, right? Maybe they There are people among them who can resist the living dead virus. First of all, Linghu and the others might be able to withstand it. Forget it, it’s all nonsense, there’s no point in arguing about it, I’ll go check on them.”
Xiao Mo got up and left the warehouse, walking in a hurry without looking back.
Xue Lihong clicked her tongue and jumped up to follow.
When Linghu and others saw Xiao Mo appear, the researcher was the first to rush to the glass wall, pressed the call button, and shouted urgently: "Doctor Xiao, has the virus in our body been confirmed? What is it? Virus? Can it be treated?"
Xiao Mo opened his mouth. He wanted to tell the truth, but he couldn't guarantee how these people would behave after hearing the truth.
Kang Lu came over, she was relatively calm, "Dr. Xiao, if you know anything, please tell us the truth. Don't hide it from us. Since we are all going to die, I would rather die to find out." This person didn't know about her cousin yet.
Linghu didn't come over. He was replacing the glucose solution that had been dripped on a comatose patient. In the past two days, all six comatose patients were relying on intravenous drips to maintain their lives.
A boy who seemed to be only about ten years old also walked to the glass wall, "Uncle Xiao, my head hurts. When can I see my parents?"
Xiao Mo's eyes were completely focused on this child, Lin Xiaofei, the tenth and last carrier of the living dead virus they found that Ni Wei had created.
"Uncle Xiao?"
Xiao Mo's body trembled slightly, "Ahem, wait a moment, I'll show you right now."
There was a small room outside the large room where these men were kept.
This was originally one of the monster prison rooms and observation rooms used by Bao Yuezhi. The large room inside was relatively large, with bathrooms and showers. Xiao Mo and the others moved in with ten camp beds, which was not too cramped.
There is a transparent glass wall between the large room and the small observation room, which allows Xiao Mo and others to see the patient's condition from the outside without going in.
Every time Xiao Mo repaired them, it was Xue Lihong who took them out one by one and brought them to the small room.
Seeing Xiao Mo coming to open the door, the researcher's eyes moved. He had noticed that the thugs and bodyguards who usually followed Xiao Mo were not there, and even the soldiers were waiting outside.
The door opened and Xiao Mo asked Lin Xiaofei to come out. The researcher turned on his heels and wanted to follow him out, but at this moment he saw the tall and thin thug come in.
The researcher immediately stopped. He didn't want to be beaten again.
Xiao Mo carried the child to the observation platform and sat on it. He touched his trouser pocket and took out a chocolate.
This was given to him by Xiaohong this morning, but he was reluctant to eat it.
When Lin Xiaofei looked at the chocolate, his eyes twinkled, but this child was so well-behaved that he only looked at it but didn't ask for it.
Xiao Mo grabbed his little hand and put the chocolate in his hand, "Eat it later."
"Thank you, uncle." Lin Xiaofei smiled so much that his toothless mouth was exposed.
Xiao Mo rubbed his soft hair, pulled up the high stool, grabbed the child's wrist and started the treatment process.
Lin Xiaofei held the chocolate in one hand, tilted his head and looked at Xiao Mo, his lower legs dangling slightly on the observation platform.
Xue Lihong stood in the corner and did not disturb them.
Xiao Mo "treated" the child very quickly, repairing the diseased cells in his body in less than twenty minutes. However, the virus did not disappear and remained nearby.
In fact, Xiao Mo's ability has improved a lot compared to when he first helped Cheng Zai expel the angel virus, and is even more powerful than when he helped Ms. Chang'e. But what he has improved is his repair ability, that is, he can now repair diseased cells. But they still cannot eliminate or expel the excess viruses from their bodies.
It stands to reason that when the living dead virus combines with healthy cells to cause disease, then he repairs the cells and the virus should disappear together. But his current repair is more like separation, which is to extract the virus from the diseased cells. Although the two are separated, they are also retained.
I should be able to do more! To repair, shouldn’t we fix what is broken, make up for what is missing, and remove what is superfluous and should not be there
"Your Majesty, is there any way to quickly advance my abilities?" Xiao Mo asked the system in his mind.
System, "Complete the task, complete the task more."
Well, that's not going to work. Xiao Mo forced a smile at Lin Xiaofei and asked, "Does your head still hurt?"
Lin Xiaofei felt it for a while, shook his head, and asked again: "Uncle Xiao, when can I see my parents?"
"It will take two days until your condition stabilizes."
Lin Xiaofei blinked, "Then when will it be two days? Every time my dad said he would buy me toys, he always said it would be two days, but these two days are really long."
Xiao Mo laughed out loud and gently pressed the child's head, "Little Elf, wait... after noon tomorrow, if your headache is gone by then, you can see your parents."
"Really?"
"real."
The child stretched out his little finger and said, "Hang yourself with a hook, your deceptive nose is long!"
Xiao Mo did not hook up with the child. He took the child off the observation platform and sent him back to the big room inside again.
The child waved to him after entering, and then ran to help Linghu. Even though the child is young, he can easily tell which of the three sober adults inside is the one who will really take care of him.
Linghu met Xiao Mo's eyes and nodded slightly to him.
Xiao Mo forced out a smile, called Kang Lu out, and repeated the inspection and repair actions just now.
Kang Lu's physical condition is similar to that of a child. Because of her frequent repairs, there are not many diseased cells in her body.
The situation of Linghu and the researcher is the same, both are within the repairable range.
But for the six people who were in a coma, Xiao Mo had no choice. The diseased cells in those people had developed into their brains, and no matter how hard he tried, the viruses stubbornly refused to separate.
What is the difference between the cells of superpowers and those of ordinary people? Why can I repair the diseased cells of Linghu and others, but not those of these six ordinary people
After completing this round of repairs, Xiao Mo could no longer stay here. He especially did not dare to look at Lin Xiaofei's eager and innocent eyes.
On the way back, Xiao Mo suddenly punched the wall.
Xue Lihong couldn't stop him and grabbed his hand, "Boss, calm down."
Xiao Mo really couldn't calm down and couldn't think of a way! Killing Ni Wei is one thing, but killing those "sick" innocents is another.
The Mother of Gluttonous Beasts in the first-level mission also hurt people first and then turned into a monster. Only then could he suppress his usual moral values and force himself to take action.
Even those brave heroes who dare to fight the villains will not rush up and stab the person to death when they see someone committing violence against other humans or animals, or beat the person's brains out with a brick. Most of them will hold the person unconscious and knock them out. The idea of stopping the perpetrator, and most of those who accidentally kill the perpetrator are killed by the wrong hand.
Of course, these are troubled times, and legal and moral constraints have reached their lowest point. Many people feel that it is ridiculous to still hold on to the concept of peacetime at this time. Let alone killing people bravely and in the name of justice, killing for revenge and self-protection. That is also a matter of course.
People like Xiao Mo, who clearly have reasons to kill but refuse to kill because of love, will make people laugh and look down on them.
Xue Lihong didn't laugh at Xiao Mo, nor was she annoyed by his indecisiveness. He can be cold and make the most correct judgments simply because he has lived many times longer than Xiao Mo and has seen and experienced too many things.
Just like doctors, when they see a patient who has died of illness for the first time, they will be sad, cry, blame themselves, and reveal everything. But as time goes by and they have experienced a lot, they still have sympathy and sadness in their hearts, but they no longer feel it. The pain will not be so severe, but the patient's departure will be viewed more rationally.
So some people talk harshly, that is to say, they are just talking nonsense. They really send a few people in front of you and tell you: Kill them. If you don’t kill the earth, it will be destroyed. There are children and women among them, can you really do it
Xue Lihong looked at Xiao Mo, he was very worried. I am worried that this person will not be able to withstand such heavy pressure and bear the huge guilt of conscience, and will choose to be wiped out by the system.
With Xiao Mo's character, it is really possible that he would do this.
So...with twenty-four hours left, what could he do to avoid tragedy
