Wasteland Survival Code

Chapter 689 Sixth District

The death toll is still rising. As the young executive walked along, there was a disgusting smell in the air. In addition to the strong blood and the pungent disinfectant, various internal organs, After the filth and pus were dissolved and mixed, a strong pungent smell was produced. The entourage around him took out their breathing masks and put them on their faces, breathing in the purified air.

A soldier wanted to hand a breathing mask to the executive officer, but the latter waved his hands, frowned, stepped deep and shallow in the thick plasma, and walked towards the depths of the quarantine area.

There are not many people working in the isolation area, there are hundreds of medical staff alone, and even more people can be injected with genetic medicines that can be sent here—this was originally a space for market opening and trading. It is a wide square, but now it has been occupied by tens of thousands of hospital beds full of people, and those medical staff are completely in a state of continuous rotation, without a moment's rest.

As for the clean-up work on the square, it was simplified to the extreme. If someone died due to genetic collapse, the medical staff would carefully record his symptoms and cause of death, and collect the corpse. Later, if someone died Dead, half of it is to put the body in a body bag hastily, pour a bucket of water on the ground and the bed, and wash away the blood splashed everywhere.

Fortunately, a large amount of disinfectant was sprayed on the square to prevent mosquitoes and flies from breeding. Otherwise, more people would probably die from plague, malaria or some other severe infectious diseases.

The executive had just reached the middle position when the head of the medical team hurried up to meet him.

"The executive officer came in person, but I couldn't meet him from afar, it's really..."

"Come on, I'm not the group of old people who like to put on airs. Save this kind of polite talk next time and report the latest death toll. Also, is there any breakthrough in the rescue?" the executive officer called He cut off his words and spoke quickly.

"The death toll..." the person in charge of the medical team just started to speak, and the body of another gene collapser exploded on an iron bed 20 meters away. Several medical staff quickly ran over and began to process the remains of the deceased .

"You have also seen...the number is changing every moment, and the death toll is now close to 3100." His voice was very dull through the breathing mask.

"Three thousand...then did you get any useful information? Don't tell me that your people are just working as embalmers and cleaners—"

"Yes, yes... I came here in a hurry, because I have an important discovery to report to the executive officer!" The person in charge nodded repeatedly.

"Hurry up, don't whine!"

"Yes yes yes... Just 5 minutes ago, the people in the second group discovered a special case, that is a second-level evolutionary who survived the genetic collapse, although the tissues in the body were also severely damaged , but did not die..."

"There are survivors?! Where are the others?" The young executive's eyes lit up and he asked.

"It has been, has been sent to a temporary laboratory, and it is estimated that it is being dissected..."

"Anatomy? Did you kill the only survivor?" He was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to slap the face of the person in charge, who was almost 60 years old, but luckily stopped when he raised his hand own actions.

"This... In order to find out why he survived, we have to do this... This is to save more people, and his whole body organs are on the verge of failure, even if we use the best medical methods to treat him He, he only has two months to live at most. Rather than..."

The person in charge didn't continue, but everyone present knew that what he didn't say was nothing more than "It's better to use it as a research material than to live for two months..."

"Okay, what about the research results?" The executive officer grabbed the clothes on the shoulders of the head of the medical team, pulled him over, and asked word by word.

"It takes time... Mr. Executive Officer... the laboratory needs time, please believe them, they are all top talents in this field, it only takes half an hour at most, half an hour can reach a conclusion!"

"Half an hour, let me ask you, according to the current attack frequency, how many people will die in half an hour?"

"About five hundred to eight hundred."

As soon as the head of the medical team finished speaking, an assistant behind the executive officer immediately said: "Sir, the death toll and growth rate have been calculated. According to the current death rate, 671.4 people will die within half an hour, but if Given the rising death rate, the exact death toll within half an hour should be between 1121 and 1237."

"1000 people... Although the price is heavy, we can still afford it. I hope to hear some useful news in half an hour..." the executive officer let go of the head of the medical team and said.

"Master Executive Officer, the environment here is too harsh. Would you like to consider changing to another place to wait for the research results... Also, Warrant Officer Eugene hopes that you can go to his side, you see?" the assistant approached In the executive officer's ear, whispered.

"Warrant Officer Eugene? Which Eugene?" The executive officer glanced at the assistant and asked with a frown.

"It's Warrant Officer Eugene of the First Squadron of the Military Police Force of the Consortium Union. He is now the commander of the troops in the sixth district who detains the witnesses of the 'special situation'. According to the news from him, the soldiers who have been controlled are now a little emotional. Not very stable, there have been several protesters, including many officers at the school level, Warrant Officer Eugene dare not let his subordinates use violence to suppress, he is afraid that the situation will get out of control, so he hopes you can go to calm the situation, at least, will The situation is stable..."

"Okay, let's go now." The executive said.

Unlike those rich and powerful children who have been yelling, these people are all soldiers, including a large number of evolutionaries who have evolved naturally. Although their weapons have been taken away, their number is more than that of the guards There are too many of them. Once a riot breaks out, those under Eugene's command alone may not be able to suppress the scene.

No one can be sure, under the influence of various emotions such as anxiety, suspicion and fear, what will happen to these soldiers who have witnessed the pus and blood of their comrades. Quite a few officers, if someone raises their arms... the executive officer can't believe what will happen next.

Detaining all these witnesses in a prison-like factory building is the worst strategy when there is really no other way. In this closed environment, people's negative emotions will continue to catalyze and expand, just like Like dough with yeast added... until the end... "BOOM!"

And what he needs to do is to find a way to stabilize the emotions of these prisoners before reaching the critical point of the explosion. Instead of letting these people keep guessing in their hearts, it is better to tell them the truth of some things. They had seen enough anyway.

As long as they are sure that their safety can be guaranteed, the hidden dangers will be reduced a lot. At least, they don't have to worry about the riots of the witnesses on the other side when dealing with the drug injectors.
