Chapter 275 Close Encounters of the Third Kind
For Duanmu Huai, once the situation reaches the critical stage, it is the easiest thing to do. Although the idiot arms dealer placed a lot of mutated creatures and other stuff in the factory, it was meaningless to Duanmuhuai. Not only that, Rebecca and Xue Li also discovered the idiot arms dealer used in the factory. Manufactured vaccines—then the rest of the problems are non-issues.
"Bang."
A bloody corpse collapsed limply on the ground. Duanmuhuai clapped his hands and looked at the two people beside him.
"Okay, everyone, the mission is over and it's time for you to set off."
"Are you going now?"
Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Rebecca felt somewhat uneasy. She followed Duanmuhuai along the way and saw with her own eyes how powerful and terrifying this man was. To be honest, Rebecca doubted whether he was still human. And just now, he crushed the arms dealer to death with his own hands, as easily as crushing an insect.
This frightened Rebecca even more.
But in comparison, Xue Li was a little excited and excited.
"So big uncle, are we going to the tribunal you mentioned now? Will they send someone to pick us up?"
"Well...this is a secret for the time being, but before that..."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai took out two black hoods from his pocket.
"Put this on first."
“……………………”
Why does it look more and more like kidnapping? ?
Rebecca wanted to contact Chris, but Duan Muhuai stood in front of them. Seeing Xue Li put on the hood without hesitation, Rebecca had no choice but to grit her teeth and put on the hood.
Soon, everything in front of her was pitch black, and then Rebecca felt a big hand behind her, pushing her forward.
The next moment, her hood was taken off.
When Rebecca and Xue Li opened their eyes again, they were immediately stunned by what they saw.
At this moment, they were no longer in the underground biochemical factory. On the contrary, they were now standing in a magnificent, church-style hall. Looking out from the floor-to-ceiling windows in front of them, they could clearly see See the stars and planets in front of you.
"Dong...dong..."
Then, heavy footsteps sounded, and Duanmu Huai, wearing power armor, appeared in front of Rebecca and Xue Li.
"Okay, ladies, welcome to the trial court."
Then, he looked at the two people and said.
"Uncle, big man, where is this place? Space?! Are you aliens?"
Rebecca looked confused, and Xue Li screamed in surprise, but Duan Muhuai just made a gesture to them.
"Follow me and I'll explain the situation to you along the way."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai turned around and walked out of the door. Rebecca and Xueli seemed to have lost their minds at the moment, but followed Duanmuhuai instinctively. Then, Duanmu Huai told the two of them about the origin of the Tribunal, the past human empire, the evil god of chaos, the black hole project and the history of mankind until now - I have to say that for the two of them, this is simply a complete outlook on life. Collapse, their past understanding of human history is just a drop in the ocean on a scale of tens of millions of years...
"I can't believe it..."
When Rebecca came back to her senses, she was already sitting on a chair, staring blankly out the window, where a gorgeous battleship was slowly sailing forward. In the past, Rebecca thought this kind of scene would only be seen in science fiction movies, but now...
"Okay."
Duanmuhuai sat in front of them, and then nodded at the table. Soon, Audrey served hot tea to the three of them, and then stood aside respectfully.
"Now that you understand our origins, let's talk about the work I want you to do."
"………………"
Hearing this, Rebecca and Xue Li couldn't help but become nervous. Now they have a clear understanding of what kind of existence the Tribunal is. Although Duanmuhuai told them that the Tribunal is currently in the reconstruction stage, it is still a guardian Humanity, and eliminate all powerful forces that threaten human existence. And what they want to do by themselves will definitely not be something insignificant.
"You already know that the Inquisition is currently fighting a war on this planet, and a very special plague has broken out on this planet."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai opened the screen and displayed the data and pictures.
"It is similar to the T virus, which can corrupt living things and transform them into some kind of monsters, launching attacks on all living things except them. Of course, these guys are not as slow as zombies, and they can even infect and transform plants... …”
"………………"
Seeing the data and pictures on the screen, Rebecca and Xue Li couldn't help but hold their breath. Although they didn't know the situation yet, from the current point of view, this was much scarier than the T virus they had to face before. .
"So... Uncle Big wants us to continue developing vaccines??"
After seeing all this, Xue Li asked, but Duanmu Huai shook his head.
"You don't need to study how to treat and defend yourself. This is not a problem. I just want you to find a way to completely destroy this plague. According to our current observations, this is not an ordinary plague, but more like some kind of plague." Parasites, but we don’t have experts in this field, so I asked you two to come and help solve this problem.”
Speaking of this, Duanmuhuai paused.
"Times are not optimistic. You already know that due to the civil war and the war with the orcs on this planet, there are only 20 to 30 million people left in the world. If the plague continues to rage, then I can only An order of extermination was issued in the name of the judge.”
"…………"
Hearing this, both of them swallowed.
"Extermination order?"
"To put it simply, it means completely blowing this planet into pieces." Duanmu Huai said.
"Only in this way can this virus be prevented from spreading once and for all."
"I.........We understand."
Rebecca and Xue Li looked at each other and nodded with pale faces. It's not like they haven't thought about what would happen if the virus got out of control. The city was eventually blown up by missiles.
It's just that... this side actually wants to directly destroy an entire planet...
Rebecca took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
"I understand, I will cooperate with the work, but I need instruments..."
"We have controlled several biological laboratories. You can see which one is more suitable for research. But you don't have to leave this battleship. All you need to do is remotely control it here."
"Okay."
The two of them can understand this. After all, the best isolation method is remote control. In this way, even if a sample leak occurs, there is no need to worry about infecting researchers, and it can also prevent someone from being infected or carrying it privately. The virus leaves... This happens only in shoddy science fiction movies.
After arranging the two of them, Duanmu Huai left the reception room and breathed a sigh of relief.
Phew... finally done.
With the participation of Rebecca and Xueli, Duanmuhuai finally felt relieved. Just as he told the two of them, by investigating low-Earth orbit satellite data, the Inquisition had learned about several abandoned biological research facilities. . But the problem is that no one knows how to use those things - after all, you have to be knowledgeable about this kind of thing to be able to figure out what each instrument does.
Otherwise, it would be funny if you use a centrifuge to spin mung bean soup.
But then again, the technological development of this planet is too bad...
Standing in front of the window, staring at the war planet not far away in front of him, Duanmu Huai curled his lips. It is said that war is the catalyst for human technological progress, but the technological development of this planet is a mess. According to the data retrieved from satellites, it can be known that because this world has only one continent, wars have continued from ancient times to the present, and the energy used by human civilization has also ranged from coal at the beginning to wind power and nuclear power later, and even The uranium mines were almost gone, so we turned to Im Energy...
So, you have almost emptied the entire planet of energy and minerals, but you haven’t even built a spaceship?
Not to mention spaceships, how about you create nuclear fusion?
Nothing happened?
So what have you developed over the years?
What a bunch of losers... they have no other ability except fighting.
Oh, even in the war, nothing good was developed.
After so many years, it turns out that there is not even a single soldier exoskeleton. Only the chain saw gun is still interesting. The rest are all ordinary ground combat equipment... To be honest, what is this group of people? What technology tree did you build?
If this was a game, then Duanmuhuai said that this group of people didn't select specializations in any technology tree at all.
Just like a student who scored 60 points in all subjects and just passed the passing line, his mediocrity is outrageous.
Now Duanmuhuai is counting on seeing if Rebecca and Xueli can bring him any good news.
Facts have proved that the technology tree of the biochemical world is really not built. Within a few days, Rebecca and Xueli brought good news to Duanmuhuai - they found the source of this plague infection!
That’s………………! !
"Im Energy??"
Looking at the report in front of him, Duanmuhuai looked confused, while Rebecca nodded.
"Yes, we have conducted reconnaissance on all infected samples and infected areas and found that these plagues are mainly concentrated near this energy source called Yim energy. We originally thought that this parasitic organism was attracted by Yim energy to gather. Yes, but when we analyzed the samples of Yim Energy, we discovered that Yim Energy itself is a collection of parasitic organisms.”
"......So that means that Im Energy is not an energy source, but a parasite?"
"Yes, the longer the exposure time and the higher the concentration, the more susceptible to infection. I suspect that the original infected person probably became ill because of the mining of this microorganism called Im Energy. In fact, there are records of this A little.”
As she spoke, Rebecca called up the record.
"This is the information we collected from satellite intelligence. Before the Pendulum War, some agencies discovered that miners who exploited Im energy for a long time would suffer from a disease called pulmonary rust... and there was also Imu There have been reports of infection mutations caused by ruminal substances, but it seems that it has not attracted enough attention.”
"………………"
Are all scientists on this planet idiots? You can't even tell the difference between energy and parasites when you're riding a horse?
"But now, it seems that this parasite does not require high concentrations or long periods of contact to spread."
"Yes, we have investigated the collected samples. Compared with the parasites sleeping in Im energy, the parasites currently infecting organisms seem to have evolved and mutated to a certain extent..."
"Evolution and mutation......"
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai frowned, and then his heart trembled.
Damn it, he must have been targeted by the God of Disease!
Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai hurriedly looked at Rebecca and Xueli.
"I ask you to immediately come up with a way to completely eliminate this parasite. Any method will do, don't worry about the loss."
"This..."
Rebecca and Sydney looked at each other.
"We still need a little time, maybe we can lock down the core gene of the parasite."
"As soon as possible, I'm afraid we're running out of time."
Duanmuhuai shook his head, and then he looked out the window at the starry sky.
If the God of Disease were to target him, then... he would be in trouble.
