Gene of Brilliant City 13 Division

Chapter 623 Prologue. Chapter Zero. Blindness IX

On a deserted and silent street, garbage is fluttering in the wind. The street is full of a large number of scrapped cars. Some cars are rusted. There is no one on the street. There are black marks on the ground, as if something What remains after solidification looks like a human form.

Surrounded by empty high-rise buildings, no one can be seen, the sky is hazy, only a circle of light behind the clouds, at this time a flash of light seems a bit dazzling, on the top of a car, there is a silver watch , the workmanship looks very fine, except for some dust adhered to the surface, the watch is still moving.

clap clap
In this empty and quiet street, the crisp and clear movement sound from the watch is exceptionally clear.

This is a seaport city located in the south of the Atlantic Ocean. It used to be the kingdom of football. The flags of some teams can be seen everywhere on the streets, as well as sculptures of some famous players, including stars representing honor.

Some black solidified human-shaped imprints can be seen at intervals on the ground, the number is very large, some are single, and some are the superposition of several human imprints.

Scattered food, banknotes and water, as well as a lot of weapons and ammunition can be seen in some places. There is always black dust floating in the air, dust that is visible to the naked eye like gravel, floating gently in the city, sometimes rising and sometimes falling.

At this time, a bird landed in front of a bag of food, looked around suspiciously, then stretched out its head, and began to peck at the bag. Soon the bag was pecked open, and the bird began to eat the food in the bag, appearing A little laid back, he doesn't seem to care much about everything around him.

Soon the bird was full, and it flew to the top of a car, jumping, as if looking for something, but at this time the body of the bird was a little strange, and some black scabs could be seen under the feathers, as if The surface of the rugged stone was average, and the bird began to preen its feathers.

After a while, the bird flew up, and quickly flew to the top of a tall building, and landed in a place with stronger sunlight. It looked around, as if looking for a companion, but there was nothing in the city. At this time, the bird looked to the east, and there was something slowly moving on the sea surface. The bird spread its wings and flew towards the east.

bursts of noisy voices

In a seaport, densely packed people are like ants, waiting for the arrival of the ship, while some ships that have already set sail have already sailed to the distance, and many people showed desperate expressions.

Almost all the boats from all over the country are concentrated here. Most people just want to escape this city that has been reduced to a place of death. Most people come from all over the country with hope. This is the only place they can escape. , to North America, or Europe across the ocean, is the only hope for the people here.

A large number of soldiers with weapons, using the outskirts of the harbor as the dividing line, are confronting the people who are still pouring in from outside. Many people are talking in a hurry, hoping to pass, but almost no one dares to step forward. Because someone went straight forward and was shot.

The soldiers looked at the gathered people in horror. They were wearing gas masks and fully armed. Behind the 6-story checkpoint, they stared intently at the people outside.

At a place 30 meters away from a temporary tent at the checkpoint, a large number of people were queuing. In the large tent, there were many medical equipment and inspection equipment. Experts, they just drew blood from men.

The man seemed to be praying for something, and soon a medical scientist nodded, indicating that the man could pass.

The man seemed to have obtained the key to heaven, excitedly kept saying thank you, and passed the metal house behind the temporary tent.

Under the signal of the medical scientist, a woman 30 meters away hurried over. She was a little tired, so she rolled up her sleeves as soon as she came, and several medical scientists immediately came to draw blood.

The detection here has lasted for nearly a month. There are a total of 1 monitoring points. They can only detect 10 to 3000 people a day, and the fastest one person takes 4000 minutes. Not only here, but also other seaports. Some people are coming here.

Nowadays, most of the people who come here only dare to go around along the edge of the city and live on the edge of the city. Some local medical scientists have sent people to put up warning signs to tell people not to go to the city, because there are extremely dangerous people. Possibly infected with this annihilation virus.

The fatality rate is 100%. Once infected, without any medical treatment, the body tissues of the human body will be completely decomposed, and the viability of the virus is extremely strong, it can survive for at least 5 days, and it will attach to the surface of many things. The wind that entered the city has become the greatest savior of mankind, but it is only temporary.

Medical scientists understand that it is impossible to solve this virus now, because the structure of this virus is too complicated, and it is a type that has never appeared in the human world since the history. spread out after the explosion.

The virus has killed millions of people in less than a month, and many places have lost contact. No one knows where to go to be safe, but the only way is to hide in a tight At home, do not touch humans.

There are still more than [-] people waiting for the ship in the harbor, and they need to undergo a test before boarding the ship. As long as one person is infected, no one on the ship will survive. There is no one carrying the virus yet. Examples of people living.

"I can not make it!"

A male medical scientist walked out of the tent and came to the metal room, then quickly threw his clothes into the incinerator, jumped into a pool of anti-virus solution naked, and soon he came to another metal room. After entering the room, I lay down on the sofa tiredly. After a while, the door of the room opened, and another female medical scientist entered.

"Sarabia, I don't think it's going to work here. We've got most of the virus samples now, so we can leave."

The man said, the woman walked over, picked up the cup, poured a cup of hot coffee, she shook her head.

"Neo! Are you going to abandon this place?"

The male medical scientist named Neo laughed and shook his head.

"It's not about abandoning or not, but we have to make a choice. After all, the president has gone to a safe North America, the innocent soldiers are still carrying out orders, and the citizens are still thinking about being rescued. I I can't bear everything that is so heavy!"

Saravia laughed.

"At the moment we don't know anything about this virus, if we go back now."

"Look at the situation in the city, Sarabia, there is no time or opportunity for us to stay, I have worked 20 hours straight and now I am tired."

Saravia leaned over, sat next to Neo, and held his hand. Both of them are internationally renowned virologists who work in an experimental institution in North America, not belonging to this country. Although they are from this country, they are basically away all year round and rarely come back. This time they have received instructions from high-level officials, at least they have to get virus samples. This is for the future of mankind.

After the virus sample is brought back, it can be analyzed by AI, and one day the true appearance of the virus will be known.

"There is still hope for these people, as long as we complete the testing, some people will be able to board the ship and at least go to some safe place."

"Safety?"

Neo laughed.

"There's no safe place in the world anymore, and do you really think they'll let the ship dock?"

"What do you mean Neo?"

Saravia asked, and Neo had already closed his eyes. He didn't want to answer Saravia's question anymore, because he didn't plan to talk to this woman anymore. She wanted to help more people, so they It has been delayed for half a month here, and Neo, who is in charge, has been criticized by many people below.

The reason for staying here is that Saravia has convinced Neo time and time again. Neo’s patience has reached its limit. The ship that set sail a few days ago has not come back to pick up people. Neo knows something is wrong. .

Europe may be considered safe now, but some ships bound for Europe may bring the virus over. This is what Neo is worried about, so he plans to go to Europe to negotiate with another international virus organization. I hope to be able to persuade them to give me some AI medical equipment and let me take it back.

Neo also intends to inform the past of the situation here, so he has used an unmanned aerial camera to record the tragedy of human extinction in the past month.

Once this annihilation virus is infected, the initial symptom is muscle weakness, and then it will fall into an incubation period, usually only 7 days, but now it can be detected through blood, and after seven days, this annihilation virus will begin to rewrite The NDA of human beings is directly turning the human beings into particles, and this is the known place at present.

After the outbreak of the virus, human beings will continue to lose body fluids, and then slowly, like withered plants, they will finally turn into a pile of sticky decomposed substances, and the death looks extremely terrifying.

Basically, from muscle weakness in the initial two days to seven days of incubation, it will erupt on the tenth day, and the outbreak of the virus only takes 8 hours to decompose a person.

The speed at which the virus rewrites human DNA is extremely terrifying, and how the virus does it is currently unknown.

Neo is very clear that it only takes one outbreak of such a virus in human society to destroy all mankind. This is just the beginning, and Neo knows that a large-scale outbreak has begun in the southern part of North America. If the remaining countries in North America don't think about it, there won't be any living things on this land soon.

Not only human beings, but even animals are the same. Almost all animals visible to the naked eye have been extinct. In the past few days, Li Nio has hardly seen anything.

However, the moment Neo was about to close his eyes, he saw a bird passing by in the sky outside the window. Neo woke up in a flash, and Saravia, who had closed his eyes and was resting, suddenly woke up .

Neo's head was buzzing, and he worked non-stop for 20 hours. His thinking was extremely developed and he couldn't stop at all. In an instant, Neo cried out in horror.

"Everyone put on protective clothing and prepare to evacuate, evacuate!"

Saravia looked at Neo with a frantic and terrified expression in bewilderment.

"What exactly happened?"

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up."

Neo hurriedly ran to a place with level 5 protective clothing, and quickly put on a new protective clothing.

"Do you want to die?"

Seeing that Saravia was still in a daze, she finally put on a protective suit on the ship. At this time, medical scientists from the medical monitoring stations came over, a total of 129 people gathered together. Neo told the officer that, They're going to have a seminar on viruses.

Everyone put on protective clothing and gathered in a large harbor factory building. Neo felt extremely hot.

"Now we have to leave. The virus will break out here. I just saw a live bird come here. In the past few days, we must not take off the protective clothing, and the army will not let us leave. "

As Neo said, many people showed terrified expressions. The army received an order to assist medical experts like them. However, if they leave, the army will definitely become suspicious, and the place will be in chaos.

Someone asked Neo if he was wrong, but Neo said.

"I'm not mistaken. If I was wrong, I wouldn't call everyone in such an urgent manner. Now we have to draw up a plan. Our medical ship is now under the escort of the military. We must find a chance to leave Only then, otherwise we will never be able to leave."

Saravia was a little overwhelmed, she knew the seriousness of the problem, if Neo read it correctly, then the bird that flew in was the virus carrier, and once a virus fell into the crowd, The consequences could be disastrous.

Biological disinfectants can kill this virus, but they need a high concentration. Now that everything in human society has stopped and there is no production capacity, it is impossible to use biological disinfectants to ensure that the virus does not will spread.

Soon Neo and several department heads made a plan, and everyone listened carefully, because it was related to their lives, and now that they are not here, there is already a mess outside, and soon they are wearing anti-virus The masked general came in and asked them to hurry up and help with the detection.

Neo began to arrange some people to go out, and finally left more than 30 people, all of whom are core members of this medical institution.

"General, we have to take the virus back to the ship for research."

When Neo and the general said this, the general immediately shook his head.

"What equipment do you want, I will send someone to get it for you."

For a while, everyone present felt a chill, Neo also nodded, and told the general about some equipment needed on the ship.

"General, there is a problem here. The external environment cannot be completely isolated from bacteria. We have to go back to the ship to experiment."

The general hesitated for a while and then said with a smile.

"You stay, and the few of you, if you want to conduct any experiments, the others can go."

Neo has nothing to say. Originally, when the control was not so strict more than ten days ago, they had a chance to leave. Even if there were soldiers guarding their boat, there was no one who was not afraid of death. Neo only needed to be with the guards. As long as the soldiers on their ship can communicate well, they should be very willing to assist.

"It was my fault."

Saravia breathed heavily, and through the mist, she saw the furious Neo.

The people next to each other on the harbor can only be covered with clothes, and they can only eat and sleep on the harbor. Human beings are now like penguins who report to keep warm and resist the cold wind.

At this time, accompanied by a coughing sound, a man who had just finished using the toilet by the sea suddenly staggered and fell to the ground. Many people around looked at the man in horror. He explained with a smile that he already had legs. Afterwards, the man lifted up his trousers, and many people felt a little relieved after seeing the surgical wound on their legs.

There is a bad smell in the sea breeze, because there is no toilet, most people can only solve their physiological problems directly in the sea.

It's just that the man who claimed to have leg problems felt dizzy after sitting on the ground. He wanted to raise his arm, but he couldn't. Called.

But soon the man pulled off his clothes and fell asleep. Basically, he could only eat food once a day. Most people could only lie on the ground like this, enduring the cold and hunger.

For most people, it doesn't matter that a month ago, they got a video from a distant country about why the asteroid fell. Now everyone wants to live.

Survival is more important than anything else. This is what most people think. Many people will look at the sea from time to time, wanting to see if the ship that transported people has returned. This is the reason why everyone can continue to endure in such a harsh environment .

There are a lot of garbage and fish carcasses floating on the sea surface, biological extinction has already begun, and human beings, as a member of living things, have inevitably begun to become extinct.

In just one month, a large city with a population of nearly 200 million became silent, and the people who fled from all over the country also saw empty cities on the way. People who went into the empty city looking for some food and water never came back.

10 o'clock in the morning
In a desert in North America, there are still many people walking, all of them are walking along the road, but they are far apart from each other.

Everyone was exhausted, looking serious, they just wanted to quickly reach the city at the end of the desert, at this time, among all the people, there were some who looked powerful, there were 5 people in total, one of them was a woman, the other All four are young and strong, and they are also carrying weapons.

The woman's name is Yuka, a virologist. She was carrying a large bag with virus samples in it. During the two difficult months, Yuka finally escaped with the help of several rescue guards. It's just that Yuka lost everything along the way. Both his son and daughter were infected with the virus and died.

Yuka is very clear that although this virus is powerful, it needs transmission conditions. Two months ago, Yuka contacted the military through the radio equipment set up by the guards and told them everything they knew, as well as the virus. conduction conditions.

It's just that Yuka didn't mention it in detail, because she knows very well that only she can arrive safely. After all, her husband Werther should be dead by now, and she has nothing, but she must share her personal experience about the virus. Tell other humans everything, so that humans can find ways to fight viruses in the future.

This kind of work can only be clearly explained by Yuka, a virologist who has experienced this disaster, instead of interpreting it through radio with extremely poor signals and almost impossible to communicate.

High temperature is currently the best way to kill the virus. This is what Yuka seems to have tried, and with the addition of other virus transmission conditions, it can prevent yourself from being infected by the virus to a certain extent, but it feels too late to know all this. , If he had known a few days earlier, both his son and daughter were still alive, and there would not be only 30 of the 4 people in the escort.

At this time, in the distance, helicopters came towards this side. Everyone seemed to see hope. Waving their hands, a member of the guard immediately took out the last remaining signal flare and fired it directly. to the sky.

The transport helicopter came towards this side, and gradually 10 helicopters landed, and Yuka ran over under the escort of the guards.

bang bang
There was a gunshot, and Yuka was stunned for a moment, but she was picked up by a man and rushed to the helicopter.

All the people who passed by were mercilessly shot. Yuka, who stepped on the helicopter, was in a trance. She swallowed continuously. At this time, no one dared to approach. Weeping helplessly.

"what about them"

Before Yuka finished speaking, the helicopter took off.

"D393H completed the task, OVER!"

"Please go to the designated coordinates immediately, the annihilation operation is about to begin! OVER!"

Soon 11 helicopters took off, without any mercy, Yuka looked at the people below, when a military official in the back seat came over.

"Miss Yuka, I'm sorry, but there's no other way."

Yuka asked tremblingly.

"What do you want to do?"

The officer nodded and hummed.

"Miss Yuka, the high-temperature extermination plan you proposed before is indeed our only means at present."

Yuka stared at the officer in a daze, and at this moment, accompanied by howls, black fighter jets suddenly swooped over from a distance.

As soon as Yuka looked over, he saw a large group of flames suddenly sprang up on the ground. In an instant, there was a sea of ​​flames behind him. The flames appeared like water, constantly appearing behind the roaring fighter jets.

Soon Yuka couldn't hear anything, and couldn't see anything.

"Is it selective insomnia? There is a way. As long as the conditions are met, you can avoid being infected by the virus. You are the devil's act!"

Yuka roared, and the officer took off his hat and laughed.

"The situation in China has completely changed now, Miss Yuka, if you let the virus spread again, you may have a chance to witness what hell is like!"
