Facing Zhang Yang's questioning and his glaring eyes, Lord Morse could no longer maintain his grace.
He subconsciously avoided Zhang Yang's eyes, blushed, and murmured: "Sorry!"
Not only him, but everyone present, except for Nicole and Ziyi later, and General Johnson who argued just now, all showed that awkward look.
There is no doubt that, if these people do not fully support the so-called third package, at least they do not specifically oppose it like General Johnson did.
Originally, they could convince themselves that it was for the benefit of more people in order to comfort their conscience.
But now, Zhang Yang, an outsider, has directly revealed everything. No matter how thick-skinned he is, he can't remain calm.
Of course, the reason why everyone pays attention to Zhang Yang is because they know his miraculous performance in the secret base.
You know, even the Vatican was helpless against the power of the Viking witch, but Zhang Yang destroyed it by himself.
Just then, a young officer broke the silence.
"Mr. Zhang, do you have any better way?"
This man has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a resolute expression, and his appearance is somewhat similar to that of Joseph.
But the cool and unrestrained demeanor of an aristocratic young master exuding from his body seems to be even better.
"you are……"
"I am Jack Churchill, Joseph's cousin. I work for the Special Investigation Bureau of the Department of Defense and am the nominal direct leader of the special service team." The young officer introduced himself.
When he mentioned his last name, he inevitably showed a hint of pride.
Zhang Yang guessed that he must have a deep connection with the famous British Prime Minister Churchill.
Or simply his direct descendants.
No wonder he would be entrusted with the management of a secret force such as the special service team.
I imagine that this person must have a profound background and rich heritage among the senior officials of the Federation and even the British aristocracy.
However, no matter how deep his background and high his status, Zhang Yang has no special feeling.
He nodded and asked Jack: "Mr. Churchill, I heard from Miss Nicole that the reason why the epidemic broke out in the south was actually due to the negligence of the Ministry of Defense. I want to know the specific situation first. I don't know if
convenient?"
When Zhang Yang said this, he glanced at Lord Morse intentionally or unintentionally.
Sure enough, Morse immediately showed a hint of embarrassment.
Nicole and the others have a good grasp of the situation. It is indeed a problem with the Ministry of National Defense that led to such a large-scale epidemic in the south.
No wonder she was full of disdain for the British Ministry of Defense.
"Of course!" Jack said, "About half a month ago, two soldiers on patrol suddenly broke into the laboratory of the base by accident. Because they did not have the necessary protection, they accidentally infected the Viking witch.
The evil spirit. Without realizing it at the time, one of them sent a letter to his daughter living in Windsor to wish her her eighth birthday. As a result, it was contaminated with his saliva, and her daughter was infected."
"So, his poor daughter became the source of the disease?" Zhang Yang asked with a frown.
He didn't think that just a little saliva could cause such a large-scale epidemic.
There must be other reasons!
"Yes!" Jack obviously didn't notice the change in Zhang Yang's expression, nodded to himself, and said sadly, "Unfortunately, we didn't discover it in time, and the epidemic gradually spread. By the time it was discovered, many people had already been infected.
. However, it was still in the incubation period at that time, and even if it broke out occasionally, it was easily controlled. Who knew that with the destruction of the Viking Witch the day before yesterday, it suddenly went out of control and completely broke out, and several nearby towns
They are all paralyzed.”
"So, it's because of our good intentions that we did bad things." Zhang Yang laughed teasingly.
"I can't blame you. No one thought that this would be the result. Besides, if the Viking witches are not eliminated, once they wake up, it will definitely be a catastrophe for the world!" General Johnson said solemnly.
Jack added: "In addition, we also discovered a strange phenomenon. The latent evil atmosphere seems to only erupt within a specific range near Windsor Town. Although mutants will appear in other places, they will not be transmitted through the air.
.We guess that there must be some secret hidden in that letter."
"Guess?" Nicole smiled disdainfully, "Didn't you send someone to try to find it? Don't you like to do it yourself, seeing is believing?"
"Who says no!" Joseph, who had remained silent, suddenly said, "In just two days, we have lost seven members of the special team in order to find that envelope. A total of seven!"
Finally, Joseph almost roared and stared angrily at Lord Morse, his bloodshot eyes seemed to burst out with lightning.
"I'm so sorry, Joseph!" Lord Morse apologized.
"What, they are all infected?" Zhang Yang asked.
"No, they all...have disappeared! All disappeared!" Joseph said in a deep voice, his voice trembling with excitement.
"Disappeared..." Zhang Yang couldn't help but frown.
"Yes, they disappeared inexplicably. Along with the equipment on their bodies, they disappeared without a trace. It was as if they had never existed." Joseph seemed to be full of self-blame.
Zhang Yang wanted to say something to comfort him, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
As a result, the underground bar fell into a brief silence.
"This is the fundamental reason why you are determined to destroy this area, right?" Nicole interjected, with a hint of joking in her tone.
"Yes!" Jack nodded and said solemnly, "The Vatican also supports our approach. They also lost at least three people in the two days of operations."
"Haha, you're not going to use the holy water they provided to soak weapons and ammunition, are you?" Nicole said with a mocking look on her face.
"Miss Nicole, please don't laugh at us! As long as there is a way, we are willing to try it." Jack looked into Nicole's eyes and said seriously.
"Including inviting Mr. Zhang here?" Nicole glanced at the people present and asked with a smile.
"Yes! We will not let go of any hope."
"Tell me, what price are you prepared to pay?" Nicole asked again.
Her eyes intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Lord Morse, who had remained silent because of Zhang Yang's questioning.
Lord Morse naturally noticed Nicole's eyes and knew that he could not avoid them.
"The price..." He smiled bitterly, "If Mr. Zhang can find a way to calm down this incident, he will win the friendship of the British Ministry of Defense and Her Majesty the Queen. Yes, all friendship!"
"Haha, old man Morse, you always like to discount your promises, and your friendship is not valuable." Nicole sneered.
"Miss Nicole..."
Lord Morse wanted to explain something, but was immediately interrupted by the aggressive Nicole.
"Okay, okay! Old man Morse, it's just a joke, just a joke! Don't be so nervous." She waved her hand and said, "Mr. Zhang is a doctor. According to him, doctors are like parents...
Uh, this sentence is in Chinese, I'm sorry you don't understand it. In short, since he is here, he will do his best to help. I have seen his methods, and I believe that as long as he takes action, the matter will always be solved satisfactorily.
.As for how you want to thank others, I'm watching! Anyway, I think you guys will definitely not do business at a loss."
"Mr. Zhang, do you really have any idea?" Lord Morse ignored Nicole and asked anxiously.
"Yes, Mr. Zhang, please help us, help those poor people!" Jack also said.
"There is a way. It's just that there are too many people infected now, and I can't handle it alone. And some people have completely turned into walking zombies. Even if they recover by chance, it will be troublesome..."
"What, can those infected people be saved?" Johnson heard the implication of Zhang Yang's words and asked quickly.
"It's not impossible." Zhang Yang said firmly.
The reason why he was so sure was because Bill and others were successfully treated.
As vampires, Bill and others have stronger vitality.
But it is precisely for this reason that when they mutate, they need more evil energy to dominate.
Ordinary humans, on the other hand, have almost no resistance to this evil spirit and are easily infected.
It will erupt immediately at the slightest disturbance and spread rapidly.
Therefore, although human infections may seem serious, they are often not difficult to treat.
"What now?" Lord Morse asked.
"Go to Windsor Town to find out what's going on first! By the way, search and rescue those survivors who have not been swallowed up by the evil energy and turned into walking zombies. As for those zombies that have mutated," Zhang Yang said.
"Okay, let's do it!" Jack said with finality, "The special service team will do its best to provide help to everyone, regardless of transportation, communication equipment, weapons and ammunition, and will provide armed helicopter support when necessary."
"I have no objection!" said Lord Morse.
"We have no objection either!" Several other military personnel also said.
"So, if survivors are found, should they be taken directly out of the quarantine area, or should they be handed over to the military for processing?" Ziyi asked abruptly.
It's understandable that she has such concerns.
The people who survived in Windsor Town were probably infected with the evil spirit.
If we take them with us, they will definitely become a burden on our actions and slow down our pace.
But leave it to the military, God knows what they will do.
No one can guarantee when the evil spirit in these people will break out.
In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, the military may find it difficult to treat them well.
You know, encountering such a thing would have caused heavy psychological harm to them.
If not handled well, it may leave an irreparable psychological shadow on them.
As the senior leader of the Chinese secret force, Ziyi has probably dealt with many similar incidents and accumulated considerable experience, so he raised such a question.
Lord Morse pondered for a moment: "Miss Ziyi, thank you for your reminder! Let's do this. After you find survivors, please notify us in time. We will leave an emergency channel at the southern end of the blockade. At that time, the priest sent by the Holy See will
Stay there and bathe them in holy water."
"This is a good idea!" Nicole said, "Although their holy water cannot cure the damage caused by the Viking witch's curse, it still has some effects."
"Besides, we have to take two people with us, is that okay?" Zhang Yang said suddenly.
"Who to take?" Lord Morse asked almost reflexively. (To be continued)
