Time quietly came to the end of the 116th year of the Tianyuan era, and the time unexpectedly lasted more than half a year.
To a practitioner, half a year is really nothing. It is just a small period of retreat. But for this world, and for the entire Zhoutian world, it is a fatal moment.
The vigorous Demon Saint Virus finally inevitably spread throughout the world.
"The whole world is infected?" Zhang Hao fell silent after listening to the news brought by his senior brother Guan Shanyu.
Guan Shanyu, the third senior brother, just came to Blue Star Group and went out for a while. When he came back, he was sealed because of the detection of a virus.
They were not released until treatment technology improved.
However, after being released, Guan Shanyu was not stable and ran around everywhere. Anyway, the virus can be eliminated, so there is nothing to worry about.
No, he has become Zhang Hao, the Blue Star Group Headquarters and Quasi-Sage, as well as the best messenger here at the Gate of the World.
Although Guan Shanyu just likes to run around, he also becomes a messenger when he goes back and forth.
Guan Shanyu sat in front of Zhang Hao, picked up the snacks brought by the maid and ate them, "It's so delicious. You have so many good things here."
Zhang Hao smiled: "I recently had a chef class trained and prepared to give it to the master. Brother, take it with you when you leave. One chef class, 300 people, plus a renovated large-scale sightseeing warship. Combat power
It’s not much, but it can handle some minor troubles without the busyness of master, brothers and sisters.”
"That's a good feeling." Guan Shanyu didn't know how to be polite.
Zhang Hao smiled and said, "I just hope Master likes it."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
The greater the external pressure, the more internal unity will be. This is an eternal truth. Tianji Xingjun's strength, arrogance, and arrogance have actually promoted the harmony between Zhang Hao, Lei Xingfeng, and their senior brothers and sisters.
Under normal circumstances, it would take hundreds or thousands of years for Zhang Hao to fully integrate into this circle. The circle around Quasi-Sage is also a huge interest group.
Although senior brother Li Shaolong, second senior sister Murong Feixue, and third senior brother Guan Shanyu hang around the master every day and have nothing to do, they all have a huge family behind them, and they even have empires affiliated with them.
They don't need to be busy. The reputation of the quasi-sage disciples is the best talisman and the greatest help. The interests involved behind this are beyond imagination.
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Hao and the Blue Star Group led by Zhang Hao must pay a price to integrate into this circle.
However, due to Tianji Xingjun's involvement, especially the fact that Tianji Xingjun represents the 'Seven Stars' behind him, these seven super old antiques, Zhang Hao easily integrated into Lei Xingfeng's inner circle.
Under pressure, Zhang Hao used technology and his ability to do things to win internal recognition.
As the saying goes, misfortune depends on blessing and misfortune lies behind it. Sometimes some things are really difficult to judge by simple blessings and misfortune.
Guan Shanyu ate a meal haphazardly and took out a jade slip, "This is the information from Qixingjun. Master asked me to pass it on to you. At present, the Demon Saint virus has completely spread to the four stars; in Taiweiyuan,
A large-scale infection also occurred in Tianshiyuan.
Currently, only Ziweiyuan is safe. All the Seven Star Lords have also mobilized. This time, the Demon Saints have gone big!"
Zhang Hao took the jade slip and glanced at it, his face slightly solemn.
The information in the jade slips shows that the most severely infected areas are the Longyuan Empire and its surroundings, all the way to the Taiwei Yuan area. The color is marked as purple and black. On the contrary, within the Blue Star Group, it appears light red, becoming a bright
comparison.
At present, the scope of the Blue Star Group is basically mostly White Tiger astrology and a very small number of Suzaku astrology.
Then comes the Vermillion Bird astrology, followed by color; the Basalt astrology comes next, and finally the Azure Dragon astrology. But even the color of the Azure Dragon astrology is redder than that of the Blue Star Group.
Then in Taiweiyuan and Tianshiyuan, there are also ‘bad spots’ of different colors.
At the end of the information, there are tips:
Light red: the infection rate is less than one thousandth; light red, one percent; red, one tenth; dark red, one fifth; purple half, purple black all.
Infected people currently have only three options:
First, wait for death, or choose to practice magic;
Second, seal, wait for hope;
Third, if it is not very serious, you can temporarily lower your cultivation level. This is a suggestion from Miao Xiaoyu, a scientific researcher at Dayang Group, but it has been spread all over the world.
As the virus spreads, not only the evil of the Longyuan Empire and the fear of the Demon Saint, as well as the hope of breakthrough, but also the reputation of Dayang Group.
The madness of the Demon Saint Virus has also shaped the bright image of Dayang Group. It turns out that Dayang Group was studying the Demon Saint Virus and looking for a solution more than two years ago.
A trading company whose highest level of cultivation was only at the seventh level (Li Wei) (from the outside perspective) actually declared war on the Demon Saint Virus and achieved two major results:
One is to lower the cultivation level, and the other is the Demon Saint virus treatment equipment. Because of the research of Dayang Group, infected people will have a second and third choice to buy time for the entire Zhoutian world.
As for the Blue Star Group... everyone chose to ignore it.
But the influence of the Demon Saint Virus is still crazy.
Choosing to seal or lower your cultivation level is very dangerous in this increasingly chaotic world. Not everywhere is as powerful as the Blue Star Group, which can seal and treat all infected people together, and also has quasi-sage protection.
Currently, all infected people from the Blue Star Group have been transferred to the Tenglong Star Cluster.
The Tenglong star cluster hangs alone in the outer layer of the astrolabe of the Zhoutian world, more than 800 light-years away from the fundamental surface of the astrolabe. The only connection with the Zhoutian world is the interstellar highway, which is also completely controlled by the Blue Star Group.
Overall, the Tenglong Star Cluster is very safe. It is also protected by Quasi-Saint Disciples. This is also one of the important reasons for the stability within the Blue Star Group.
But to the outside world, the situation is different.
As the saying goes, diseases come like a mountain and go away like a thread. Although the virus treatments from Dayang Group are good, ordinary treatments can only temporarily clear the virus, but cannot promote the body to produce vaccines, antibodies, etc.
The Demon Saint Virus is a completely different existence from all viruses and even toxins in the past.
Moreover, the output of treatment equipment is limited. Even now that Zhang Hao has made the technology public and completely free of charge, and even though Zhang Hao has promoted the cooperation of many quasi-sages and jointly produced equipment, the output is still limited.
Under such circumstances, the vast majority of infected people embarked on a path of no return - turning to practice magic!
After switching to practicing magic skills, the virus was immediately suppressed, and my cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds. With the advancement of my cultivation level, coupled with the corruption caused by practicing magic skills, it goes without saying what the consequences will be.
Chaos, robbery, killing, revenge, etc., the bottom line of human beings has been penetrated time and time again.
Demons are sweeping across the entire Zhoutian world.
However, there are some people who still have the backbone, and they choose the route of the magic weapon man!
Just like Li Xuancang, he refined himself into a magic weapon. But most of them failed, and those who succeeded were not necessarily perfect. This was just a desperate road of struggle.
The news that Guan Shanyu brought this time was sent by Tianji Xingjun. Although he didn’t say anything, Zhang Hao also understood Tianji Xingjun’s potential meaning: vaccine!
At present, the only thing that can save the entire world is a vaccine! If it is just a common treatment method, it can only be better than nothing, giving everyone a little hope, and it only treats the symptoms but not the root cause.
But unfortunately, vaccines are not available just when you want them. In fact, as mentioned before, vaccine research finally encountered difficulties.
With a mortal body, trying to analyze the genes of the Demon Saint cannot be described as "difficult", it is as difficult as heaven!
Zhang Hao was silent for a while and said to Guan Shanyu: "Third Senior Brother, when you go back, tell Master that I have seen the epidemic map and I will speed up vaccine research. But the current difficulties... we don't know when we can break through."
"What is the difficulty? Can you briefly explain it?" Guan Shanyu was curious. Although he had also stayed in the research laboratory, it was actually in a sealed state, and he himself was confused about science and technology.
Science, for those who don't understand it, is like a book from heaven. Open the Dayang Group's version of "Zhou Tiangong" and the first line of the preface on the first page is the mass-energy formula. Most people read such a method,
Really staring and kicking the legs~
Zhang Hao nodded: "The genes of ordinary people are just an alternative quaternary system. But the genes of quasi-sages have a 'quantum state'. After analyzing the last key link, a problem finally occurred.
What is a quantum state? It's like Schrödinger's cat - you don't know whether it is dead or alive before it is turned on.
As found in research, electrons and photons appear in two places at the same time, sometimes appearing as waves and sometimes appearing as particles. Even if there is only one electron or one photon, it can still exhibit some wave characteristics.
If we want to develop a vaccine for the quasi-holy virus, we need to make a breakthrough in quantum technology."
Zhang Hao knew that this question was not only for Guan Shanyu to ask, but also for the five quasi-sages at the Gate of the World to figure it out.
Guan Shanyu nodded, but then asked: "But doesn't Dayang Group have quantum computers? Why haven't we figured out the genetic problem of the quasi-sage yet?"
Zhang Hao smiled: "Brother, have you read the latest popular science book "Science and Technology Weekly" of Dayang Group?"
"Look! This is currently the best-selling book in the world. The teacher asked us to memorize it from beginning to end. Oops, it gives me a headache just talking about this. I heard that many people are cursing you in private. Haha..."
Zhang Hao smiled, "Brother, do you remember the cutting-edge quantum computer technology mentioned above?"
"It seems like...150 quanta."
Zhang Hao nodded, "Does senior brother know how many quanta the quasi-saint gene has?"
Guan Shanyu shook his head.
Zhang Hao's face turned serious: "Whether it is the genes of the Demon Saint or the Quasi-Saint, each base pair is a quantum. Once the Demon Saint virus is activated by spiritual energy and true essence, a quantum state will appear. This is what the Demon Saint has done so far.
One of the reasons why the Saint virus cannot be analyzed.
And the number of base pairs in the Demon Saint gene that we have measured so far is as high as 3.2 billion!"
