After noon, under the scorching sun, the entire earth was like a frying pan for pastry. What was even more uncomfortable was that the people were still covered in airtight protective clothing.
The protective clothing only has an isolation function, but it does not have a heat insulation function. People inside will not be as warm in winter and cool in summer as if they were wearing power armor.
Egger felt that the sweat all over his body was flowing along his body towards his footsteps. He had just done a very stupid thing.
Considering that the surface might be very hot, Egger stripped himself down to his underwear, then put on his protective suit with only his shoes on. He thought that wearing less clothes would make him cooler.
Now he is stupid.
Iger discovered that if there is no layer of close-fitting clothing to absorb sweat, the skin will be stuck together with the protective clothing due to sweat, which is very uncomfortable.
Be patient, what you need to do now is to finish your work quickly and then return to the refreshing bunker.
Egger no longer has any attachment to the surface of the earth. This ghost place is really not suitable for human survival.
In the bar, three people gathered around Blood Plague Heart.
The Heart of Blood Plague looks the same as before, so two more injections should not kill it.
This time Joanna also came with her. After all, something big happened last time, and she felt that she had to keep an eye on these two guys who were too out of touch.
"Okay, I'm ready to prick it." After Iger finished speaking, he raised the huge syringe in his hand and pricked it with all his strength into the heart of the blood plague. This time he used harder force, and the needle bottomed out directly.
After receiving this violent puncture damage, Blood Plague Heart began to breathe.
"Attention, everyone, stay back."
As soon as Egg saw the heart of the blood plague beginning to expand, he shouted loudly.
Following this shouting, the three people quickly retreated to the door of the bar, ready to escape at any time.
Even if you are wearing protective clothing, there is no need to wear hard steel against your face.
Iger is not an adventurist, and neither are these two girls.
"Pfft."
When the heart of blood plague swelled to a round shape, it suddenly sprayed out a stream of dark red blood mist in all directions.
In fact, if you watch it from a distance with peace of mind, the blood mist ejected by the Blood Plague Heart actually looks extremely poignant.
The blood mist did not spread too far, it only covered most of the bar, and gradually settled in less than a minute.
"Okay, continue." Egger said as he walked in from outside the bar. He walked steadily to the Heart of Blood Plague, holding the syringe with one hand, and then pulling the piston back with the other hand.
This time, the heart of the blood plague accepted the situation and no longer struggled.
"Okay." Egg pulled out the full syringe from Blood Plague Heart, and Dina also stopped recording on her phone.
Then, the three of them returned to the bunker with slow steps, braving the scorching sun that refused to set.
The town is not far from the bunker, probably less than one kilometer. This distance was not a big deal at first, but now it is simply a difficult expedition.
Finally arrived.
After the bunker's safety door opened, the three of them rushed to a place where direct sunlight could not reach them, as if they were running away.
It finally cooled down, but the sweat was still stuck to my skin, and I still felt the same discomfort.
Then, the three of them entered the disinfection room along the corridor. After washing themselves with cold water from top to bottom, they entered the virus laboratory.
As soon as he entered the door, Iger couldn't help it anymore. He dropped the syringe in his hand, and then motioned for Joanna to come over and help him take off his protective clothing.
With Joanna's help, Egger finally took off the protective clothing. To be more precise, he peeled off the protective clothing from his own body. The protective clothing was filled with water droplets like water vapor.
This protective suit is considered ruined. It is estimated that except for Egg, the other two girls will never choose it.
Egg took the lead, and the other two girls couldn't help it. They also took off their protective clothing with the help of each other.
In fact, everyone's situation is similar. It doesn't mean that girls are more heat-resistant, nor do they sweat differently. The smell and odor are different depending on gender.
However, now is not the time to take a shower and change clothes. You must seize the time to separate and culture the blood drawn out.
Egger put the syringe with the needle removed into the instrument, then clicked a few buttons, and the machine started running. The mechanical arm slowly pressed down the piston, and the viscous blood in the syringe was squeezed into the instrument.
This instrument first dilutes the overly viscous blood, and then separates large pieces of various blood cells, leaving only plasma and other mixtures.
After waiting quietly for more than ten minutes, as the indicator light came on, Egger took out the diluted, filtered and separated virus stock solution from the device, stuffed it into another instrument, and then clicked the confirmation button.
After waiting nervously for a few minutes, the instrument showed that the live virus concentration index met the cultivation standards.
Egger finally breathed a sigh of relief. He pressed the culture confirmation button, and everything after that was left to the instrument for fully automated production.
At this time, Iger could finally relax. He even discussed with the two girls why such a simple operation could not be fully automated.
The perspectives of all three are interesting.
Dina analyzed it from a professional perspective. She believed that it was to prevent incorrect chain reactions from being generated. Each step requires manual confirmation, which is to prevent errors in the order of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32,…
…and this speed spreads.
Egger believes that this should be to ensure that the control of the experiment is in the hands of humans in the base. Otherwise, if the AI is controlled by hackers and secretly produces some weird things and then releases them into the world, it will not be a world chaos.
Joanna's view is the simplest. She said that if it were fully automated, wouldn't all the staff who operate the instruments be unemployed?
Good view.
Later, Iger and Dina both believed that Joanna's statement was the closest to the truth.
A few minutes later, Egger saw through the glass of the instrument that the almost transparent virus stock solution was extracted from the separator and then inserted into a huge incubator.
The incubator will automatically adjust their living space according to changes in virus concentration. When the amount of viruses reaches the minimum, they will enter a huge glass culture tank.
Finally, when the virus concentration in the culture tank reaches the limit, the culture fluid in the culture tank will be pumped out, and the nutrients will be isolated and concentrated through the single-molecule permeable membrane, and finally made into therapeutic serum.
The computer shows this process takes about 100 hours.
During the subsequent waiting period, everyone finally relaxed. Egger and Joanna had given up carrying the bodies. Firstly, their physical strength was not as good as before, and secondly, there was no need now.
In the next free time, why not enjoy some delicious food.
Dina edited the video captured on her mobile phone and sent it to Wade. Wade knew how to do it, and now he has become a transfer station.
Dina knew what the military wanted to do, she just hoped to prepare the healing serum before they arrived.
…
100 hours later, Egger came to the virus laboratory. What he saw were batches of treatment serum, almost hundreds of them.
With this virus laboratory, treatment serum can be produced almost unlimitedly before the raw materials are exhausted. According to Dina, this serum can withstand high and low temperatures, and can be stored for a long time without special equipment.
In the restaurant.
There are three syringes and three treatment serums placed on this four-person dining table. The three of them are sitting on the edge of the table. You look at me and I look at you.
"Let me go first, I have experience." Egg said to the two of them.
"I should go first, my body is in the best condition now." Dina said to Egg.
This is not a rush to be the first, this is a rush to test the medicine.
After all, this is not a native blood plague virus, but blood drawn from the heart of the blood plague. Theoretically, this treatment serum may be very different from the previous treatment serum.
During the cultivation process of the virus, if there is only a little difference in the original, it will lead to a huge difference in the final culture results.
This is the chain amplification of errors mentioned by Dina.
Although Dina did hear Wade excitedly say that the treatment serum was successfully developed according to her own plan. But Wade would not tell her, and even Wade himself might not know how much he had to sacrifice for the success of these treatment serums.
Volunteer" gave his life.
"Stop arguing!" Joanna suddenly said to the two of them, and she said: "Let me try."
After saying that, Joanna reached out and picked up the syringe and serum on the table.
Iger grabbed Joanna's hand, and Joanna said to Iger: "Among the three of us, each one should contribute something. Once your work is done, leave the last part to me."
Joanna shook her arm lightly to break away from Egger. She skillfully picked up the syringe to draw out the serum, then tied her arm with a rubber band, took the syringe and injected the serum inside into her own vein.
Egger and Dina looked at Joanna nervously. After sitting quietly for a few minutes, Joanna suddenly said to Egger and Dina: "Success! I have gained immunity to the blood plague."
Alas!
The three of them cheered at the same time.
In the following time, Egger stepped up his efforts to use the virus stock solution in the incubator to make serum. Due to the size limit of the incubator, he could only make nearly a hundred tubes of serum at a time.
However, there is no need to take blood samples again for subsequent production, and the original virus solution can be used directly for production.
Egg needs to make as many healing serums as possible.
Naturally, Dina had already told Egger about the military's possible plan. She told Egger that the two of you must evacuate here before the military personnel arrive.
"If we don't leave, will they kill us?" Joanna asked Dina.
Dina shook her head and said: "You don't know that the military's methods are very arrogant. They will directly 'requisition' anything they like."
"Then you, you escaped secretly, right? How will they punish you?" Joanna said to Dina, "Or you can come with us."
Dina smiled and said: "Sweetheart, don't worry, I'm the chief researcher and an important asset of the military. They can't make things difficult for me."
Dina is right, she is a Level IV authority manager and a high-ranking member of the military. But as two civilians, it’s better to hurry up.
After receiving Dina's prompt, Egger and Joanna were ready to leave at any time.
The day finally arrived, and Dina received an instruction telling her to turn on the aviation guidance radar in the bunker and pay attention to the prompts to accept the aircraft landing application.
The bunker's aviation guidance radar is always off and can be turned on manually when needed. Without radar guidance, it would be difficult for today's aircraft to land by just relying on the naked eye and feeling.
The reason is that today's aircraft are getting larger and larger in tonnage, volume, and speed, which are far beyond what those propeller aircraft of the World War II era can match.
After receiving the instruction, Dina first went to find Iger and Joanna and told them that the time was up.
After hearing Dina's report, Egger and Joanna threw the already packed supplies into the pickup truck.
After opening the door to the bunker's safe passage and before getting in the car, Joanna hugged Dina forcefully and said to her: "You are welcome to come to Ross Town anytime you have time."
After watching the pickup truck back out of the underground passage and the safety door slowly closing, Dina returned to the computer. She entered the command and turned on the aviation guidance radar on the ground.
Dina told a lie and a half to Iger and Joanna.
The half-lie is that Dina actually has no idea how the military will deal with her.
According to human nature, Dina should be rewarded, but those guys in the military are not ordinary people.
Of course, they will not embarrass Dina too much. The most likely thing is that Dina will be subject to stricter control.
One of the lies was that Dina wanted to go to Ross Town, but she didn't dare to go.
The coordinates of Ross Town have been exposed. A hungry monster comes out to look for food. If all the prey is missing, it will track all the way until it reaches the prey's lair. If it only escapes partially and the monster is half hungry and half full, it may
I will consider that the journey is too far and give up this hunt.
Dina knew that because of her carelessness, Egger was exposed as a special sample. Based on her knowledge of the military, those people would never let Egger go easily.
By staying here, I can at least feed the monster half full, and also calm down some of the anger caused by letting the prey go without permission.
A few hours later, Dina saw a computer prompt that an aircraft had entered the identification area and requested a landing request.
Dina clicked "Agree to Land" and then she came to the surface.
A huge transport plane flew from the sky, its entire fuselage shining in the sun.
It was a perfect landing. The plane taxied on the runway for a while and then came to a slow stop.
Subsequently, the cargo door at the rear of the aircraft was opened, and in the absence of a gangway, personnel in the aircraft could only enter and exit through the cargo compartment of the aircraft.
Dina stood on the edge of the runway. She saw a group of armed soldiers wearing full military equipment quickly running out of the cargo hatch and seizing vantage points around the aircraft. Then a man with white hair walked out of the cargo compartment and got off the
Diameter walked towards Dina from behind the plane.
Dina became inexplicably nervous, as she seemed to recognize who this man she had never met before was.
