In fact, everyone had deduced the things Iger told before he came, and what everyone wanted to hear more was what to do next.
Egger asked Nicholas: "Nicholas, you said those, uh, blood plague-infected people found in Todo Town, did you not find the Screamer when you attacked them?"
"Yes." Nicholas said.
"They are not waiting in place, are they wandering around?" Egger asked a very core question.
"Yes." Nicholas nodded and said.
Wandering infected groups without Screamers were actually not uncommon in the past. Some infected people would attract each other and then form wandering groups.
However, the size of the wandering group will not remain too large. When the number of infected people increases, they will become lost and separated into groups. Only with the gathering of screamers can large groups of hundreds of people appear.
The number of people infected with the blood plague that Nicholas encountered was not many, less than 10, so he didn't pay too much attention to the fact that there were no Screamers.
"I think we need to organize a close reconnaissance." Iger thought for a while and then said to everyone, "I think this is our last safety window, and it may also be our last opportunity to take the initiative.
We must seize the opportunity to defeat the heart of the blood plague again."
Iger's initiative to take action did not surprise anyone, but everyone was curious about what he meant by the safety window period.
"I have been thinking about a question, what exactly is the heart of the blood plague made up of?" Egger said to everyone, "To be specific, what kind of human body is the heart of the blood plague.
I think that if the human bodies that make up the heart of the blood plague are ordinary infected people, based on the current scale of infected people, the heart of the blood plague may be everywhere."
Egger's words were recognized by everyone.
"So I think that the human body that makes up the Heart of Blood Plague should be made of special materials. Based on my last observation, the inference is that the Heart of Blood Plague is formed by the fusion of Screamers."
Egger's inference is very reasonable, and he also explained some of the things that happened before.
"So, I think there are two things about the current situation that have not happened before. One is that the group of wandering infected people are not wandering at will. They are most likely directly under the command of the Heart of the Blood Plague.
The second is why there has been no spillover of infected people.
I think it is most likely because most of the Screamers have been integrated into the Heart of Blood Plague. Although the infected have built a more efficient command center, they have lost the commander who can lead the team to move.
Therefore, these infected people can currently only move within the control range of the Blood Plague Heart.
This is our last window period.
Once the infected evolve into a group of screamers again, an unstoppable wave of infected people will surely come. But this time, we will face an organized and directional wave of infected people, and those broken roadblocks cannot stop them at all."
When Egger said this, he glanced at everyone and said: "The Heart of the Blood Plague must die."
Egger's words also broke everyone's long-standing illusion. The sense of victory that they once thought was that the field team had stopped the wave of infections had disappeared.
The shrinking tide of infected people has nothing to do with the field team. The core reason is that they are rebuilding the heart of the blood epidemic.
Everyone misjudged this situation and instead indulged in "victory". Now the illusion has been shattered, and an extremely urgent crisis has arrived.
Egger let out a long sigh.
The world will not follow your plan, and there will not be any warmth that favors humans.
"I won't say any more clichés. This time I will lead the team to conduct close-range investigation in Puduo City." Egger said to everyone: "In terms of procedures, let's call it a joint operation."
Egger spoke directly like this, which made everyone feel worried and relieved at the same time.
Theoretically, Ige can completely ignore the gospel team. He already has a team there, but at the moment, he is the best choice for captain.
Although Nicholas is very powerful, he is not strong enough to lead a team into Puduo City and escape unscathed.
"Nicholas, gather your team together, we need to update some equipment." Egger said to Nicholas. Then, Father Locke gave emergency authorization, and Egger could use the resources of the gospel team without restriction.
On the first floor of the Morgan Building, Iger was taking Nicholas and others to choose clothes, when Joanna rushed over in a hurry.
"Ege!" Joanna yelled angrily at Ige.
After Iger glanced at Joanna, he calmly said to her: "Don't go this time, it's very dangerous."
"I am your observer. Wherever you go, I will go." Joanna said firmly to Egger.
After the two looked at each other in silence for a while, Iger said: "Okay, come here and choose clothes."
With a victorious smile on her face, Joanna walked over in a few quick steps. She asked Egger: "What clothes should I choose?"
"Hmm." Egg looked at it and picked. There seemed to be nothing suitable here. He said: "The kind of clothes that are close-fitting and tough. To put it simply, they are the kind of clothes that can prevent infected people from biting."
Joanna looked up and saw that this was an outdoor sports store, which was definitely not available here.
"Here, follow me." Joanna led everyone to another store, which sold all women's products.
"What do you think of this?" Joanna picked up a pair of fitness pants and handed them to Iger.
After Iger took it over, he touched it, then pulled hard. Finally, he opened his mouth and bit the fitness pants and pulled hard.
It was so good that my teeth were almost pulled out.
You must take good care of your teeth now. There may be no more dentists in this world.
"The pants are good, do you have any clothes?" Iger asked.
"Yes." Joanna took another piece of clothing from the shelf, and Egg tried it on. It was good, and the dress also came with gloves, only the fingers were exposed.
"Everyone chooses a suit of clothing that fits close to the body." Iger said to everyone: "Remember, it must fit well, not too big, not too small. Any negligence may lead to a weakening of the protective effect."
When everyone took a set of clothes and went to the fitting room to queue up to change, Nicholas scratched his head there.
Nicholas has a very fit and athletic physique, and these are all women's clothes, which makes him very embarrassed.
It’s not that I’m embarrassed to wear it, it’s just that I can’t fit it in.
Finally, Nicholas found a set of xxxxl oversized size. By this time, everyone else had already changed into their outfits.
A group of people wearing fitness attire stood in front of the locker room. Of course, this was not showing off their figures, let alone product display, but testing the actual anti-scratch and bite effects on each other.
It's really good. After wearing these clothes, the human body becomes very slippery and it is impossible to hold on. Everyone's clothes are also chosen to fit well, and there are no wrinkles or exposed flesh.
After a while, Nicholas came out.
Gee, this guy's muscles are really well trained. After putting on the fitness clothes, they are really sharp and sharp.
Of course, it is other places that attract everyone’s attention the most.
Nicholas pulled on his crotch, which made his head hurt. This was a very strange connection that only men could experience.
"Aha, Captain." A field team member laughed at Nicholas, "I think you should open a window there and let the birds out for some air."
After everyone laughed and laughed for a while, they each put on their own clothes. Although it was a little weird to dress like this, practicality was the most important thing.
Later, Egger went to Dr. Heidemi and asked her for 5 pairs of rubber gloves.
Last time, Iger found several boxes of rubber gloves. Although they were household-type, considering that Dr. Heidemi might need them for surgery, he gave them to her together.
In fact, now that the infection is no longer considered, the operation has become extremely simple. Dr. Heidemi completed two amputations that day, and they were completed very easily.
The end of orthopedics is carpentry. There are many carpentry tools in Vance's workshop, and Dr. Heidemi uses them very smoothly.
After getting the rubber gloves, there was just one last thing left for personal protection. Egg found Sister Maria and got 5 motorcycle helmets from her.
Wearing fitness clothes, milky white rubber gloves on his hands, and a motorcycle helmet on his head, this look is indeed very strange, but this is all the protection methods that Iger can think of.
The supplies in the pickup truck were replenished for 5 people. Egger added an extra m249 machine gun to the pickup truck. Ever since he used it last time, Egger fell in love with this sudden feeling.
For close-range investigation, first of all, the best way is to sneak in for investigation. Secondly, we must consider the means of armed breakout. We can't just rely on a pickup truck to break out.
In addition to the M249 machine gun, the pickup truck also had two AT4 rocket launchers.
I have never found a chance to use these two rocket launchers, and this opportunity will come. If you find the heart of blood plague, this thing will definitely be more effective than awm.
