Chapter 68, New Crisis
In the evening, the Bedlord Castle, the temporary base of the Takagi family and the "Concerned for the Country"
I don’t know why, but the sunset on this day is particularly gorgeous. In addition to the crimson color of the setting sun, there are also blue-green, purple-red, silvery white, golden yellow and other strange colors of glow and clouds, which decorate the huge sky. Colorful, extremely luxurious, and eye-catching... However, in the eyes of those who really know the truth, such a seemingly pleasing and beautiful sight is actually a nightmare of purgatory that symbolizes the coming of death!
——When radioactive materials are thrown into nature in large quantities, such a brilliant light of death will burst out.
At this moment, in the large room on the ground floor of the castle used for the council meeting, dozens of radiation patients with various symptoms were lying scattered. This room, which is about 100 ping (1 ping = 3.3 square meters), is packed to the rafters. The originally clean tatami is covered with pus, blood, phlegm marks, feces, urine and stains. You can smell it from a distance. There was a pungent smell of blood and putrid smell, and there were painful moans like miserable ghosts.
——As time goes by, the number of refugees who have taken refuge in the Bedlord Castle and are willing to obey the orders of the Takagi family is increasing at an alarming rate. These people who have suffered for a while are obviously much more sensible than the gang of pickpockets in the Gaocheng family's mansion before. At least they all understand the principle of bowing their heads under the roof of others. But the problem is that there are also many wounded and sick people who are in urgent need of treatment.
More than twenty high school students from Fujimi Academy were clumsily busy caring for the wounded and sick. In particular, Saya Takagi, a tsundere girl with ponytails who calls herself a genius, even changed into a white coat, carried an [automatic medical kit] in a stylish way, and played a guest role as a doctor:
"...Anorexia, diarrhea and hair loss? Little sister, these are typical early symptoms of radiation sickness! Let's take some blood for testing first..."
"...Your wound is somewhat infected and inflamed! Fortunately, it is not infected with the zombie virus...Use some antibiotics first!"
"...Oh, this uncle looks so miserable! Not only is his skin as dark as that of an African, but his internal organs have begun to rot, and his whole body exudes a terrible smell... It's a good thing that you can persist in taking care of him." He carried it here, and his will was strong enough to hold it I haven't died yet, so I'm really lucky! But... I'm so seriously ill, I'm afraid I won't be able to just rely on the [automatic medical kit] for treatment. Doraemon? Doraemon? Your [time baggage] Let me use it! There is a critically ill patient here!”
"...Auntie, please come and check it out! What? I just had a fever and vomiting two days ago, but now my body has recovered?
Oh, you can't take it so lightly, Obasan! Even if you don't think about yourself, you still have to think about your children.
Let me tell you a little common sense: when you are exposed to a nuclear radiation environment that exceeds safety standards, the intestines and stomach are the most vulnerable places to be injured. Within a few hours, you will feel sick and vomit, followed by diarrhea, hair loss, headache, or fever. Then, after the initial symptoms have passed, you may have a brief period of false recovery where you appear to be on the mend, but in fact are not—it can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks before you return to health. Once you get sick, it won't be so easy at that time... Did you see that uncle who was all black and smelly just now? If you don’t want to be like that, just be obedient and let me check..."
——It seems that after taking a series of detours, this tsundere with superior IQ has finally found a way to realize her self-worth.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
At the same time, in another corner of the castle's grand room, Mr. and Mrs. Gao Cheng were signing for the expensive goods they had spent a huge sum of 280 billion to purchase.
"...This is the zombie virus vaccine preparation device that Doraemon ordered for us? But how can we make it work?"
Looking at the weird machine in front of him, which was about the same size as a jeep, and its appearance was full of science fiction colors, Takagi Soichiro curiously reached out and knocked a few times, "...you know, since the nuclear explosion, the power supply in Bedou City has been reduced. The supply of water and tap water has been cut off... and the raw materials for making vaccines. In such terrible times, I don’t know where to get them..." He frowned in distress.
"... Regarding this, please rest assured. Mr. Gao Cheng, Mrs. Gao Cheng, and Miss Doramei have fully considered the difficult situation of all users when ordering this fully automatic intelligent vaccine production equipment - according to Depending on the environment you are in, you can freely choose various methods such as solar power, thermal power generation, and manual power generation to fill it. Energy. As for the raw materials for making vaccines, you only need to add some natural animal and plant organic matter, such as leaves, mushrooms, seaweed, animal or insect corpses, etc. If that doesn't work, even zombies can be thrown in. If you really need any special substances, the intelligent program in the computer will also prompt you..."
Wang Qiu patted the "fully automatic intelligent vaccine production equipment" and replied with a smile. At the same time, he handed the equipment instruction manual to Gao Cheng and his wife, "...the production process of each batch of vaccines takes three days, and one batch of vaccines can be produced Of course, if you still can’t wait, the manufacturer will give you a gift of one thousand vaccines. We have obtained 10,000 ready-made anti-zombie virus vaccines, which can be administered to you now. Since the zombie viruses are already lurking in your bodies, medical nanorobots have also been added to the vaccine, which can remove the viruses in each of your cells. All zombie viruses have been cleaned up..."
——Seeing that the hard work of the "Concerned for the Country" has finally paid off, so that humans on this land can no longer be afraid of the threat of zombie virus infection, the Gaocheng couple can't help but feel relieved and excited: It seems that in this In the great cause of saving all mankind, an important victory has been achieved in the first stage. And as the elites who lead this cause, they are even more honored...
How to say it? It's like becoming the heroic protagonist or "messenger of justice" in a two-dimensional animation work.
In Japan, which retains much of its feudal tradition, "elite culture" is accompanied by hierarchical culture. The core of this Japanese "elite culture" is the "transhumanism" in Nietzsche's works - what is "transhumanism"? It means believing that as an elite, you have the absolute power to shake things up, and you also bear the absolute responsibility to navigate the world. Therefore, when faced with a major moment of historical choice, only the "elites" or supermen need to be able to give full play to their own power. Other "mortals" must follow and worship, but do not need to understand.
To be more specific, from the perspective of two-dimensional culture, whether it is EVA, Gundam or Revolutionary Machine, the fate of the world will always be determined by a few protagonists who claim to be elites; from the perspective of actual Japanese history, from The envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty for Dahua reform, the reform patriots at the end of the Tokugawa period, and the Japanese Young Officers Corps during World War II have always repeatedly staged the drama of "a small group of elites rising up and going berserk, and the masses of ignorant people following them ignorantly."
Therefore, Japanese social elites in various eras often have a "sense of mission of the times" in their hearts. They believe that they and the ignorant people are two completely different creatures, and they are born to lead the trend of the times. Just like those "celebrities" of the Donglin Party in the late Ming Dynasty, they had the spirit of "who else would be better off than me" - of course, what you say is one thing, but what you actually do is another... ...Anyone who has studied history knows how the literati of the Donglin Party led the Ming Dynasty into a ditch, and how the young Japanese officers during the Showa era pushed the country into the abyss...
As typical Japanese elites, Yuriko Takagi and his wife also have this awareness. They always feel that "a man cannot be without power for a day." Unfortunately, it is not easy to achieve this goal... At the moment, although they are shocked by the collapse of the world, they I also found this to be an opportunity to get what I wanted.
——At this moment, these modern Japanese elites are not like the reformers at the end of the Tokugawa period. They are fighting to the death against an unprecedentedly powerful enemy regardless of their own safety in order to implement their ideals and save this dying country and nation.
However, looking back at the sick and wounded patients on the tatami who were tossing and turning and moaning, many of them were still dripping with yellow-green pus. Some of the most serious ones were even incontinent, with smelly feces and urine flowing all over the floor. Takagi Souichiro couldn't help but let out a deep sigh. Even the long-awaited great news that [anti-zombie virus safe vaccine] has been successfully developed does not seem to be able to make him feel better...
——The old crisis has not yet been resolved, but a new disaster has quietly arrived... In such a nightmare world, what is the use of power?
"... Mr. Wang, thank you very much for your help, which has allowed us to get rid of the nightmare of zombie virus infection. But the problem is that in this cruel apocalypse, things that can threaten human life are not just zombies - now, Environmental radiation in bed host city is rising sharply , our people don’t dare to go out without taking [Universal Adaptable Light], and the radiation situation in the surrounding areas seems to be even worse... There are few survivors who have recently fled from outside without suffering from radiation sickness. "..." Takagi Soichiro introduced Wang Qiu like this.
"...The situation of the people in our bed host city is basically pretty good. The most common radiation symptoms they show are hair loss, nausea, and vomiting. After taking some medicine, they will be fine. As for the seriously ill patients lying here, they are basically fine. They were all refugees from other places floating over in boats or rafts from the sea, and some were police officers and self-defense team members rescued from the Tokyo Bay fleet by Police Miyamoto. The symptoms of radiation sickness were even more bizarre.
Because they had watched the nuclear explosion from a distance, many of the self-defense team members looked energetic, but their hair continued to fall down, and strange bright spots appeared on their skin - some were red, some were green. Some are yellow, some are black, and some are purple. It makes people wonder how they could still be alive? Another policeman ignored the incident after his arm was burned, and later vomited blood. In order to relieve the pain, he immersed his injured hand in the water, and then in full view, he discovered something incredible, like blue smoke, slowly emerging from his hand... Although the little girl Saya We have used the [automatic medical kit] to inject them with special injections, but they still won’t recover for a while..."
Then, seeing that Takagi Souichiro seemed to have missed the point, Mrs. Takagi Yuriko stepped forward and grabbed the talking point from her husband.
"...Mr. Wang, although Tokyo just suffered a nuclear bomb a few days ago, it is normal for the epidemic of radiation sickness in the Kanto region. But it is really strange to say that three days ago, when Tokyo was bombed by a nuclear bomb, we Although the radiation level here has increased, it is still far away from Tokyo. So it was far from life-threatening levels, and it even dropped slightly after that. However, just twenty-four hours ago, when you took the spacecraft to heaven, the radiation level here suddenly began to rise rapidly, and it soon reached the level. To the extent that it threatens us to go out..."
Mrs. Yuriko Takagi said with a bitter face, "...One of the [automatic medical kits] I bought before has been used and scrapped, and the food, water and clothes collected outside have also been contaminated by radiation. Now I can only rely on [s The goods in the sex vending machine have come to live..."
"...This is really strange... Could it be that the highly radioactive nuclear explosion dust was blown over Tokyo by the wind?" Wang Qiu guessed.
"...The wind from the northeast has been blowing in Bedlord City for the past two days! Wang Jun! The wind will only blow from us to Tokyo, not the other way around!"
"...Then the answer is very clear - it's a nuclear leak! Mr. Takagi, you should know how many nuclear power plants there are in Japan! There are two nuclear power plants in Ibaraki Prefecture, which is less than 100 kilometers away, and in Fukushima There are two larger ones, and there must be experimental nuclear reactors for science students at the University of Tokyo... And in the current situation where there are zombies and nuclear war, who can take care of them? "
Wang Qiu spread his hands and replied. At the same time, he looked out the window and found that for some reason, as if by some mysterious induction, the night sky at this moment was actually covered with a layer of light red thick clouds... Could this be it? The legendary radiation cloud? !
"...It seems that in addition to the global nuclear war that is gradually destroying the world, there is also a nuclear war without gunpowder that has quietly started on the soil of Japan! Mr. Takagi, please convene a combat meeting quickly. Our Time is running out..." He turned from the window and announced with a frown, "...If you are not lucky...this place will soon become a life-limited area!"
