Chapter 217 Farewell to the station and head to a new destination
The quarantine lasted about three days, and the technical medical officer conducted a final inspection.
"So, it seems that you have no signs of infection. Congratulations, young people." After checking the superficial symptoms of Anna and Anna with a flashlight, the man wearing a thick felt hat, thick-framed glasses, and a mask
The doctor concluded.
"You, Artyom, you can go." The doctor signaled that Xie Yuan was free. Then he turned to Anna, "And you, Anna, you still have to stay here for a while, and we still need to treat your wounds."
"Thank God..." Anna also let out a sigh of relief.
It was only then that Xie Yuan's expression returned from nervousness to calmness, and he finally completed a small mission goal of his: bringing Anna back alive.
Although there was an accident in the middle of the mission where the target fell asleep, the target was generally in good condition, which can be regarded as worthy of Miller...
Now there are only mid-term goals, long-term goals, and ultimate goals left... Okay, woo woo.
But then I have to find Khan. Yes, he must still be waiting for me to find the little black monster, as if the little black monster can save the world.
Xie Yuan's feeling about the little black monster is that he doesn't mind rescuing a handful of cubs, after all, he received favors from their adults when he was a child.
But for the dark ones, he still concluded that they can coexist but cannot coexist, and that the best choice is for everyone to forget each other.
After all, telepathy far beyond that of ordinary people is too dangerous for human beings, and how many people have died due to brain overload. That is, Xie Yuanli defied everyone's opinions and used three sky-high-priced fireworks to force them to move... Otherwise, sooner or later, the two races will fight to the death.
And until now, he has suffered the price of losing his reputation, status, and dignity, expelling himself like a lost dog, unable to return home.
The Ranger Corps and D6 Fortress were originally Xie Yuan's temporary residence. Alexey and Miller took him in because they were afraid that Xie Yuan would completely break away from society and fall into a bottomless abyss that would endanger society.
Miller, Ullman, and all the Rangers are Xie Yuan's jailers and watchers.
But today, Xie Yuan put a chain named "Anna" on himself in a desperate attempt to kill himself. Although Xie Yuan also voluntarily put this chain on himself.
However, the Ranger Corps will soon face an enemy they cannot deal with, the Red Line.
Let's add some more countermeasures. Otherwise, if we want to win this war, destroying the fortress and dying together with the red line is the most likely direction now.
Xie Yuan is not afraid of participating in the war, just like Xie Yuan is not afraid of death, but now Xie Yuan does not want to leave this world so early... This is also the biggest weakness of the bond - reluctance.
"What are you still doing here?" The doctor looked at Xie Yuan with disgust, "Quickly leave!"
"Go, Artyom...I will go find you after they take care of my wound." Anna also said politely, after all, the hospital was too boring and the doctors couldn't stand it.
Moreover, the most important task in their hands: hunting the black monster has not yet been completed.
"Take care of yourself." Xie Yuan gently touched Anna's face, looked at Anna reluctantly, and then walked out of the isolation camp without looking back.
…
The biological and chemical weapon released at the red line this time was the weaponized AIbo virus. Xie Yuan heard this from a conversation between a researcher and a Hanseatic officer.
Fortunately, weaponized viruses are designed to maximize short-term mortality due to fear of side effects.
On the third day, the overall mortality rate dropped from 95% to no more than 30%, and today there were only two or three minor infections.
The weaponized virus will completely lose its activity over time. The most important point is that the origin of the ai bo la virus is not in the cold land of Russia in the northern hemisphere, so its growth potential is very poor.
It would be hard to say if it were a native wild form of the virus.
This type of weaponized virus was also pointed out by the researcher as a pre-war research project. He was also very curious about where this kind of biochemical weapon came from.
Xie Yuan will never forget the Hanseatic officer's meaningful murmur to himself: "Just in case, I'd better ask the Rangers, anyone may bring the suffering of the past to today's subway."
After leaving the isolation camp, Khan has been waiting, and basically nothing happened as Xie Yuan expected.
"I'm glad that both you and Anna are fine. After all, we really don't have time to get sick." Although he was very grateful to Khan for his concern, his focus still made Xie Yuan unappetizing. "The black monster we are looking for may be the one in the world."
It’s the last one, don’t fall short, come with me quickly.”
"Hey, another strong man was captured." Xie Yuan was about to follow him, but he bumped into the Hansa next to him and started a conflict with the survivors of this station.
It turned out that because many of the doctors there were requisitioned in the isolation camp, a middle-aged man needed to get insulin for his wife, but was refused entry by the Hanseatic guards at gunpoint.
Normally, it was the duty of the Hanseatic guards to deny entry to the outsiders, and Xie Yuan could not offer any advice.
However, his arrogant way of saying, "It's a blessing from God to give you a shelter, don't be so ignorant." still made Xie Yuan feel sick to his stomach.
But now the Hansa controls the camp. The guards themselves did nothing wrong, and their bad attitude is not a reason to be charged. It is the guards' next solution that made Xie Yuan feel nauseated.
He can bring medicine, which is the medicine used by the Hanseatic army for the medical room. He can only provide this kind of medicine, but it requires paying...a lot of money for high-priced medicine.
What a little "Eagle Sauce" who wants money for everything!
Because he needed to buy high-priced medicine in his middle age and didn't have enough money, he asked Xie Yuan for help, and Xie Yuan also provided some financial support.
In fact, it was just a small episode. What could Xie Yuan himself do? He could also beat someone up? He had caused enough trouble.
Xie Yuan bought some bearing beads and filter cans at a nearby market, and also bought a new gas mask - his "good mask" was given to Anna.
Fortunately, there is no mass relay technology in the booster mask. It is just a special material and a unique design, which is insignificant compared to the truly epoch-making technology of Mass Effect.
"Artyom, have you noticed how much money Hansa spent on this quarantine operation?" Khan asked while leading Artyom around.
"It's hard not to pay attention. You know, when I was on the red line, I heard that killing the patients would save the subway." Xie Yuan responded, unable to feel Khan's pulse.
"With their usually extremely stingy personality, I suspect they are just trying to increase their leverage in negotiations with Polis." Khan expressed their suspicions.
"No doubt, that's right," Xie Yuan insisted, "They are not used to this kind of face-saving project, so you can see the arrogance of the Hanseatic guards. Speaking of which, how was the negotiation summit?"
Speaking of which, the summit actually started as a secret negotiation between Mosvin and Polis, but due to Corbut's plan, it turned into a four-party meeting.
Although it is a cover, it is still a high-level summit at the leadership level, and the outcome of the talks is very likely to be...not waste paper.
But it could also be toilet paper.
"Soon, the heads of the Hanseatic League, the General Secretary of the Red Line and the heads of the Fourth Reich will hold talks in Polis, hoping to reach a peace agreement on the issue of d6 distribution." Khan updated Xie Yuan on the latest updates from the summit.
Condition.
"Four wild dog leaders are dog-eat-dog, tell me, Khan, do you believe we will come out in peace?" After describing the summit in a mocking tone, Xie Yuan wanted to ask the old Khan what he thought.
"I understand human nature too well, Artyom." Khan also was not very optimistic about the summit. "War is bound to come...unless a miracle happens."
"And a miracle is the last thing we need to ask for - it is almost impossible." Xie Yuan came to this conclusion in his heart.
Theoretically, there is a smooth road from October GM station to Polis, but our old Khan just doesn't take the right path. In order to catch up with the little black monster as soon as possible, he has to go to a generally dead end -
"Circular Channel"
Of course, Xie Yuan didn't know whether the circular passage was a dead end. After all, it was only "claimed" by the Hanseatic authorities.
Well, this is why Xie Yuan subconsciously hates Wujiwu, but Xie Yuan really doesn’t know why it is called a dead end, but he knows one thing: Old Khan doesn’t want to bring Miller in anymore.
Not wanting to be put under house arrest again is one thing, but so is Miller's annoying stubbornness, and Xie Yuan just happens to hate this kind of stubbornness, so it's up to the old Khan.
The Hanseatic guards still had some personal conscience, and politely reminded Xie Yuan and the others, "Be careful with the generator."
What generator requires Xie Yuan to be careful enough?
…
It turns out that the so-called generator is actually a wind turbine created using a specific environment. Several sets of large fans rotate continuously in a specific wind environment.
Every time he passed, Khan needed to forcefully pull down the lever that stopped the valve before he could continue to pass.
But the real reason why the Hanseatic road was closed was because of the terrain. It is too easy to get lost here, and because of the drafty environment, passers-by may become confused.
Xie Yuan wouldn't get lost here, he had a multi-tool scanner, and Khan wouldn't get lost either because he was familiar with the road.
However, since only Khan knew where the destination was, Xie Yuan let him go and followed Khan.
When Khan walked halfway, he told Xie Yuan his final destination: the River of Destiny.
Here we go again, Russian romance, what is the river of destiny? What river can be labeled with the word "destiny"?
