Wasteland Survival Code

Chapter 697 Emergency Rescue

"Gene collapse?" Falcon frowned, obviously, he didn't understand what Qi Lin meant.

"I was busy fighting just now, so I didn't say it. You two will understand after seeing the body of No. [-]," Qi Lin said.

The three of them came to No. [-]'s body. Although there were traces of fighting everywhere on the second floor, fortunately, No. [-]'s body was not affected too much, and it was relatively well preserved.

Falcon and No. [-] soon noticed the strangeness on the corpse, and the former couldn't help frowning and said, "This looks...it's as if a bottle of strong acid was poured directly into his body..."

"The internal organs melted, the skin, teeth and nails all fell off, and the bones became loose and brittle... Also, pay attention to the pus and blood. Most of the components are transparent serum. The red blood cells in No. [-]'s blood The number has dropped to an appalling level..." Qi Lin added.

"This kind of symptom is very similar to death from a large amount of radiation, not necessarily a genetic breakdown." Falcon said.

"But where is there a radiation source here that is enough to kill an evolutionary? If there is, why are we, who are only one floor away from No. [-], not affected in any way?" , his perception is the most sensitive, and even he didn't notice any abnormalities. It is completely untenable to say that number four died of radiation.

"However, there are many kinds of genetic collapse. We can't conclude that No. [-] must have died of genetic collapse... Besides, the conditions for a person to die of genetic collapse are more severe than those of radiation. Although we have not detected any radiation source, But during the same period of time, No. [-] has not been injected with any serum or drugs that may cause genetic collapse." Falcon slowly shook his head.

"According to the data obtained in the "Wasteland Survival Rules", if the mutated gene in the new serum cannot be fused, the symptoms of gene collapse will erupt immediately, and there is basically no incubation period." Number three said.

"Falcon, you and No. [-] have been teammates longer than us. Are you sure he has not injected or taken any drugs that may affect genes? Is it possible that he is a hidden drug addict behind our backs? Sneaky use of some contraband-"

"Actually, it didn't take long. Everyone is a temporary team. I met No. [-] a day or two earlier than you. But I can be sure that during this period, apart from No. [-]'s rapid recovery of physical strength, I have not used anything other than medicine and military stimulants. We are also using these two medicines, but we have not had any adverse reactions. As for contraband, it is even more impossible. The things in the backpack and on the body are all It has been inspected by the organization, and it is impossible for the organization to allow this to happen." Falcon continued to shake his head.

"That's strange, could it be—"

Qi Lin was about to ask if he was bitten by some kind of mutated insect, but No. [-] suddenly pinched his neck with both hands, fell to his knees on the ground with a plop, and twitched violently. !

"What’s wrong with you?!"

Qi Lin and Falcon rushed to his side immediately, and Falcon quickly took out an adrenaline from the first aid kit and plunged it into No. [-]'s arm.

However, the medicine did not ease No. [-]'s condition, and he began to cough violently. Among the blood foam he coughed up, there were still many melted pieces of internal organs.

Falcon and Qi Lin looked at each other, and they realized instantly that the situation of No. [-] at the moment was exactly the same as that of No. [-].

"What's the matter?" Falcon kept searching for the first aid kit, but there was nothing in the small bag that could be used to deal with the current situation.

"Morphine, give him a morphine injection first, we must ask about his physical condition!"

Qi Lin said that Falcon immediately found the morphine syringe, pulled out the sleeve on the needle, and pierced it into the muscle on No. [-]'s arm.

The condition of No. [-] is slightly better than that of No. [-]. The muscles under the skin of No. [-] are either dissolved or turned into a pile of fluffy muscle fibers. Although the pores of No. [-] have begun to ooze blood, but At least the muscles can maintain normal elasticity.

One, two... It wasn't until the fourth injection of morphine into No. [-]'s body that his convulsions stopped slowly, and he lay on his back on the ground, panting heavily, his chest heaving violently, and the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth Foam of blood spread all the way to the ground.

"Number three! If you can understand what I'm saying, just blink!" Qi Lin grabbed his shoulders with both hands and shouted at him loudly.

No. [-]'s eyes were staring at the ceiling blankly. His sclera was covered with dense bloodshot eyes, his pupils were dilated, and yellow and white pus-like secretions flowed out from the corners of his eyes. Qi Lin noticed that No. [-]'s eyes had lost focus ...he has gone blind.

However, despite losing his vision, Number Three still blinked his eyelids with difficulty.

"Listen! You're in a bad situation, but at least you're not dead! Falcon and I will do our best to save you. It requires your cooperation. I'll ask you some questions. If the answer is yes, just blink your eyelids." , if not, just blink twice, understand?"

Three blinked again.

"We have to cut open his chest to drain out the corrosive suppurative fluid, otherwise these things will only make the situation worse!"

Qi Lin said, using a dagger to separate the tactical vest and clothes on No. [-], exposing his chest, while Falcon wiped No. [-]'s chest clean with alcohol cotton, and disinfected No. [-]'s chest. The scalpel was handed over to Qi Lin.

After washing his hands with disinfectant alcohol, Qi Lin held the scalpel, took a deep breath, and then dropped the blade on No. [-]'s chest.

Along the sharp edge between the ribs, Qi Lin cut a ten-centimeter-long incision, and blood that had deteriorated and smelled sour immediately overflowed from the incision.

"Connect him with a blood transfusion bag, and also, give me the last bottle of alcohol."

Qi Lin said that Falcon immediately inserted the needle of the blood transfusion bag into No. [-]'s vein—in their first-aid kits, there will always be a small bag of the same type of plasma, which can be regarded as the standard equipment of most special forces. Yes, according to the statistics of tens of thousands of battles, the biggest cause of death for wounded soldiers on the battlefield is excessive blood loss, followed by respiratory failure and wound infection.

A large amount of alcohol washed away the pus and blood flowing out of the wound, and Qi Lin used a scalpel to cut vertically at the previous opening, forming a cross-shaped incision.
