Chapter 14 Meteor Doom

Two years later.

The 320 Research Institute is completely different from two years ago. The well-connected passages are full of researchers coming and going. The best researchers are gathered here, and at the same time, it is a bit messy because of more and more samples.

When Shi Chu walked over, several researchers greeted him, "Mr. Shi, are you back?"

"Ah."

"Anything new this time?"

Shi Chu smiled wryly, "I'm going to talk to Professor Hu."

In the past two years, his appearance has barely changed, but the skin of those researchers is a little pale due to the long-term underground life.

Not only them, most of the human beings who survived the catastrophe have moved to live underground, and those who have the conditions may be able to go out to see the sun, but ordinary people have long been far away from the bright sunshine and fresh air outside .

Professor Hu is working on a new vaccine. Several vaccines have been tested before, but they can only curb the spread of this alien alien cell for a short time, and will soon lose their effect. This time, the new research results do not know if they will work.

When Shi Chu walked in, he was concentrating on looking at the petri dish.

The ability of modern society to deal with crises is actually stronger than imagined. For example, Shi Chu has long suspected that if zombies really appeared, would the order of modern society be so easily disrupted?It’s just that zombies are not superpowers. The state machinery can be defeated so easily. Even superpowers... may not be able to fight powerful state weapons. The post-apocalyptic articles I read in the past actually despise the control of the state Powerful, but the reality is that even an extremely contagious virus like SARS can be controlled, but the biting zombies are actually simpler to some extent, isn't it the same as infection?

It has been two years since that apocalyptic "shooting star", and the situation is basically stable, but it can't be called very good.

The ground is occupied by those aliens, and there are some confirmed infected humans. In most cases, these aliens will not eat these humans. Although it is not absolute, they are relatively safe. However, it also shows the IQ of these aliens from the side. It's not low, but these infected humans will attack each other-they will eat people, whether they are infected or not, and they will also eat animals or plants.

In just two years, the surface world was listed as a place of exile.

The most difficult thing to do is to judge whether it is infected or not.

Originally, there was no good solution, conventional medical methods were not very effective, blood tests and so on, the results would only be normal human beings, but the proliferation of this kind of abnormal cells was always traceable. A few months ago, a research institute in the United States developed a special reagent that would only react to this kind of abnormal cells. Once it was discovered, it was immediately shared globally. So now, with one injection, it is still possible to determine whether it is infected. Unfortunately, The cost of medicine is not low, so it has not been fully implemented, and it can only be used as a preventive measure.

In times of crisis, human potential is squeezed to the extreme.

Ordinary people huddled underground, but they could enjoy a moment of peace.

However, Shi Chu did not forget his mission.

"Shi Chu." It happened that Zhang Zongrui also came to look for Professor Hu, and the two met in the laboratory.

Before she could speak, Zhang Huihui came out of the next room with a tired face. When she saw them, she smiled slightly, "You are here," she pointed to Professor Hu, "The professor is too attentive, I'm afraid you may not be able to listen to them." until you speak."

In fact, both Chu and Zhang Zongrui knew at the time that Professor Hu's hearing... was already very weak because his eardrum was injured after listening to the screams of aliens too many times.

Zhang Huihui still has the calm and generous appearance. Her right hand holds the newly researched data, and her left hand wears a pair of long gloves, from fingers to arms are hidden in the glove. This terrible hand, even herself I don't dare to look at it again.

Fortunately, after her, they quickly determined that people infected by the alien should not be contagious. Zhang Huihui was observed for two months, and there was no sign of hunger or thirst after being infected. This is undoubtedly good news. Otherwise, the intensity of the infection might be several times more terrifying than it is now.

When Shi Chu walked to Professor Hu's side, he finally woke up and laughed, "You are back."

Zhang Zongrui sighed. He and Shi Chu went out separately to investigate, and the government would send people up regularly. After all, in such a short period of time, many resources could not be moved underground at once, but they did not dare to go deep into the alien competition. Since there were machines specially used to detect aliens, these search teams basically avoided the gathering places of aliens. Even so, casualties were still inevitable every time, and the IQ of these aliens was not low.

Ordinary people really can't go to the most dangerous area, but Shi Chu and Zhang Zongrui have much less scruples.

The reproduction speed of this kind of alien is not too fast. After a long period of detection and research, the mode of splitting and reproduction of the alien has been verified. Two years later, the number of aliens on the earth has not decreased, but is about [-] times that of the past. , it can be seen that the reproduction speed is not fast, but because of its hard meteorite skin, it is not easy for humans to really kill them, so if it is delayed for another year, even if humans can win in the end, they will probably only get one In a barren world with nothing, their reproduction is not fast, but the speed of swallowing things is too fast. If they drag on, they will eat up everything on the earth.

Many people also looked at Shi Chu, Zhang Zongrui and his party, wondering whether they could evolve supernatural powers in this last world, and soon realized that they were thinking too much.

"Professor, there are new discoveries."

"What?" Professor Hu put on his hearing aid and looked over with a serious face.

Shi Chu took out the camera that he took out, "The search team has been avoiding the aliens before, but we went to the places where the aliens gather, and found that there are many aliens that feel very strange."

"Strange?" Professor Hu was surprised, "But none of the alien samples we caught had any abnormalities." This alien can digest almost anything, and can only be locked in a room made of special materials.

Zhang Zongrui said in a deep voice, "Professor, I doubt that those aliens... will change."

"Changes?" Professor Hu frowned, and looked back at the research materials, "It's not impossible, their cell activity is so high, the most important thing is..." His face changed suddenly, almost flustered. When he arrived at the test bench, his expression became more and more ugly.

In fact, everyone already knows the appearance of these aliens. When they gather together, their deformed and twisted limbs can be completely retracted to protect their mouthparts. The aliens that pose a huge threat, they are very clear about the appearance of these aliens, and now there are dozens of samples, but in the video shot by Shi Chu, it seems nothing special at first glance, but compared with the original aliens——

It is indeed different!

It's becoming more and more "normal".

For example, the length of the limbs seems to be a lot more neat, and the angle of bending is not as weird as before. He zoomed in on the video and looked carefully at the top of the mouthparts. The place covered with a dark red film can vaguely see the shape... …much like eyes, new eyes.

Professor Hu strode towards the long row of petri dishes on the right, looking at them one by one.

He didn't pay attention at first, but now it is obvious that part of the abnormal cells has changed. Because he wants to test the drug to prevent the spread of abnormal cells, Professor Hu has also used cells from other organisms to fuse with them. Let's see Is there any organism that can resist the invasion of this kind of cells.

He used dozens of hundreds of biological cells, but was disappointed to find that none of them were successful. As long as the cells of other organisms were placed with this alien cell, they would soon be swallowed by the alien cells. Put this experiment aside for the time being, and concentrate on the research and development of vaccines.

It's not just him, most of the laboratories in the world are now researching in this direction. Human beings urgently need vaccines to solve the urgent need.

Looking at it now, Professor Hu's heart sank completely, and his whole body seemed as cold as being immersed in ice water.

Although most of these abnormal cells remained the same, several samples had changed.

Professor Hu took a deep breath, "Have the aliens you saw become... more and more like humans?"

It was only then that Shi Chu realized that the change that made his hair stand on end was this!

Yes, those aliens are becoming more and more human!Although it still has black skin and bright red mouthparts, the weird limbs are two short in front and two strong in back, and the bending angle is quite "normal". Most importantly, the shape of the head has changed, The two mouthparts seemed to be shrinking, and he even saw a few aliens that could stand upright and walk——

Yes, they are shrinking even in size!

Professor Hu smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid we have to report this news to the country as soon as possible. This kind of alien not only likes to devour life forms, but when it swallows a certain number of life forms, its cells are enough to pretend to be such life forms—"

"They can not only infect humans, maybe in the near future, they will become humans."

When Shi Chu heard these words, he couldn't help shivering abruptly.

"Some of them are not human, but some kind of animal," Zhang Zongrui said suddenly, "At that time, I was going to the east of the city, and a gray 'dead tree' suddenly attacked me. When I looked carefully, I realized that It's a strange shape that looks like a dead tree."

However, this is more terrifying than aliens being able to transform into humans. One day in the future, maybe the birds in the sky, the animals on the ground, or even the plants and trees around us...

All could be aliens.

In the laboratory, there was a terrible silence. At this moment, a cheerful voice broke the silence——

"Professor, professor! The new vaccine worked! We made it, professor!"

The lights in the room flickered a few times, and then with a "snap", the lights in the entire research institute suddenly went out.
