"Be careful, the body fluids of this insect are very corrosive."
"Take it out, give me the storage box."
"This thing looks really weird."
In the narrow temporary dissection room, Belford, the medical director of the Aurora Legion, was personally examining a dead radioactive cockroach. On the simple operating table, a complete giant insect was cut into eight pieces, one of which was considered to have miraculous healing effects.
Part of the tissue was specially removed and stored separately.
After completing the dissection, Belford also ordered his assistant to carefully clean up the various parts of the insect's tissues to avoid possible infection or accidents. After all, cockroaches have always been considered to carry a large number of harmful bacteria. Who knows what will happen after radiation mutation?
Belford walked out of the anatomy room, took off his mask and said to Zhou Qingfeng who was standing outside: "Your Excellency, Army Commander, these mutated creatures are of great research value, but I am not an expert in studying insects and mutations. As for whether they really have locals
Speaking of efficacy, this requires a lot of experiments.
As for the other two 'mutant' corpses, they are also materials that can arouse great research interest among professionals. However, the equipment and conditions here are insufficient, so they can only be transported back to Havana for follow-up research. Maybe we can find out
Their weaknesses."
Belford arrived on a transport plane with a specialized biomedical team. They have been here for two days, investigating the survival conditions of mutated organisms on the North American continent, and helping Zhou Qingfeng come up with some ways to deal with the current problem.
However, Zhou Qingfeng didn't care much about the so-called medical research. He just ordered: "All mutated organisms will be transported away by the transport plane that came this time. I don't need you to conduct any large-scale research. I only need you to do one thing."
."
As he spoke, Zhou Qingfeng rolled up his sleeves, "Pull a few hundred milliliters of my blood, inject it into some prisoners, and observe their condition within a week. If their bodies appear to be strengthened and weakened, put the glands or flesh of the irradiated cockroach
Give it to them and see the effect."
Belford was immediately confused. He couldn't figure out the reason for doing this. Zhou Qingfeng said in a deep voice: "I hope this is a secret experimental project, and all the experimental results will be handed over directly to me and Lena Fox."
"Your Excellency, Legion Commander, can you tell me what the purpose of this is? I think I need a clear experimental goal." Belford asked in embarrassment.
"The residents here say that the glands of irradiated cockroaches can treat any disease or injury. I think this is too exaggerated, but even though I have doubts about it, I still want to try." Zhou Qingfeng's purpose is simple, he just wants to
Find a way out for yourself.
Although he still didn't quite understand it, Belford had some vague guesses in his mind. Faced with the order given directly by the regiment commander, he could only nod and agree. After drawing the blood, he hurried over and led the team away again.
Seeing the three C-130 transport planes flying away again, everyone in the entire stronghold was sighing. Catalina asked Zhou Qingfeng: "Do you really believe that those mutated cockroaches are special medicine that can save your life?
"
"There's no harm in giving it a try." Zhou Qingfeng is in charge of the 'Aurora Legion', and the entire legion is his private property. "Residents of the stronghold said that the research institute of the Brotherhood of Steel is using radioactive cockroaches to create a product called 'therapeutic needle'
It is said that some minor injuries can be healed quickly and serious injuries can be greatly alleviated. I am very interested in this."
"How is this possible?" Catalina shook her head slightly. Women are naturally disgusted with cockroaches, let alone giant cockroaches. She didn't have the slightest hope in the so-called 'magical effect of radiation cockroaches', but she didn't want to attack Zhou Qingfeng.
Just deny it directly.
For many people in the stronghold, those three transport planes were simply the only chance to lead to the Garden of Eden. Because more than a hundred people in the stronghold who were considered valuable just took the plane and left, and they escaped from the sea of suffering.
No more suffering and torture.
As for the action team, the three transport planes took away some wounded and burdensome people, and also brought a large amount of equipment they needed. Light-weight fire assault vehicles are considered to be suitable for use in complex terrain, which is actually the reason for the attack on Merida.
It has been verified in the market.
This time, had it not been for an assault gun equipped with heavy artillery and explosive reactive armor, it would have been hard to say who would win in the face of the surging insect swarm and the terrifying 'mutants'.
In response to this situation, Zhou Qingfeng decisively asked Havana to get him armored combat vehicles again. So three lightly armored Panhards and a BTR-60 equipped with heavy artillery were transported.
In addition, Zhou Qingfeng's elite soldiers have also been replenished, and their number has increased to more than fifty. They are all fully staffed again and ready for battle at any time. This number of combat troops has reached the limit of the remote deployment of the 'Aurora Legion'. Again
As manpower is increased, logistical supplies cannot keep up.
After gaining a foothold, Zhou Qingfeng naturally began to search Baltimore City. However, according to the photos taken by aerial reconnaissance, he still had a problem - the road leading to Baltimore was filled with various scrapped vehicles, and the closer he got to the city, the more
more.
Without a large amount of manpower and time, it is impossible to clear a passable road. What Zhou Qingfeng lacks is manpower and time. Since there is no GPS or electronic navigation, he has to find a guide to start a new journey outside the existing road.
Plan a route that will allow the armored vehicle to advance.
"Thank God, the state of Maryland where we are located is not a hilly area, but a plain, which makes our detour plan feasible. But we don't know what we will encounter on the road. Hopefully it won't be hordes of hostile creatures.
."
Zhou Qingfeng had a detailed map of the surrounding areas of Baltimore, but it had been almost a year since the catastrophe, so who knew if the map would still be useful? He ordered people to search the stronghold for guides who were familiar with the surrounding environment, and found four in total.
"Everyone, don't be nervous. I just hope you can help me find a suitable route to Baltimore." Zhou Qingfeng personally met with the four selected guides. When his request was made, the three male guides immediately
Chi Chi Chi Gu Gua started to come up with ideas.
After discussing the road for more than 40 kilometers all afternoon, there were about three roads chosen. But there was a problem with all three roads - no one had ever been there, and they were just basing their decisions on past experiences.
"Hey, madam, what's your name?" Zhou Qingfeng dropped the pencil for drawing the map on the table, squeezed his swollen head, and looked at the only female among the four guides.
"My name is Niya. I was originally a student at the Johns Hopkins University School of Business." The woman said weakly, looking at Zhou Qingfeng with caution.
"Oh, I've heard about you. You were supposed to get on the plane and go to Havana. I'm sorry for leaving you behind. Do you have any opinions on our course of action?" Zhou Qingfeng asked.
Niya looked at Zhou Qingfeng, then at the map, and finally walked slowly to the table, drew an arc on one of the routes with her fingers, pursed her lips and said, "I suggest you take a detour."
"Why?"
"You'd better go to Granite first."
"Why?"
"Because somewhere there is a shelter, maybe we can find someone who can help us."
