Ancient Invasion [End Times]

Day Four After the Invasion · "Stopping a heartbeat is not the end."

The imperial capital has already begun to secretly impose martial law, and air traffic control and ground highways are all closed.

To go to the Imperial Capital, there is only one option for special vehicles to take the ground road.

"In case something goes wrong on your way here, we will send someone to pick you up." The old dean said, "It will be at your place in at most two days, you need to prepare."

After Cheng Sheng hung up the phone, he glanced at his cabin and cursed.

It was impossible for him not to go.

Whether it's because of the so-called "morality" or "responsibility", no matter how well he hides his research eccentricity, when he knows that the four infected bodies are now in the Imperial Research Institute, he is ready to move.

It's like when a drug addiction comes up, there is a roll of big cigarettes close at hand, who can resist?

Cheng Sheng glanced at his small house, which was full of supplies, hoping that he would rather moldy and rot in the end, and not use it one day.

He sent a message to Duan Yi: See you in the compound.

After Duan Yi finishes his mission, he will naturally see news from him.

Cheng Sheng turned and went to the bathroom to wash up.

When he came out of the bathroom, there was a missed call and a new reply on his phone, both from Duan Yi: Stay where you are, I'll be right back.

Cheng Sheng frowned slightly.

He thought for a moment and dried his hair, then pushed the wheelchair back to the computer desk.

Cheng Sheng took out an external adapter as small as a mobile hard disk from the drawer, connected it to the computer, and opened the search engine.

The data flow flashed across the screen quickly, and many blocked and transferred online information were all at a glance——

[A biting incident occurred in a community in Lidu District, Dijing City, and netizens screamed that the person was bitten to death]

[The assailant in the biting incident was admitted to Dijing Hospital. During the treatment, three medical staff were injured. After the injured medical staff bandaged them, they smiled and said they were fine, and insisted on working at their posts]

[Injury at the vegetable market in Linjing City is not an isolated case!As early as a week ago, a similar case had occurred in Dijing, there are pictures and the truth]

[The assailant in Linjing City died suddenly!Foaming at the mouth, pus and charred wounds on the body, and stench coming out, the hospital is fully disinfected and protected]

[Hospital gossip, the assailant's body was transported to the suburban laboratory overnight]

[Traffic accident: A truck overturned in the outskirts of Linjing, and there was no driver or cargo at the scene]

[Netizens claim to have witnessed the assailant in Linjing City grow fangs and claws that are different from ordinary people, saying that they look like the living dead in film and television works]

……

Cheng Sheng's fingertips began to feel cold.

——The laboratory in the outskirts of Linjing transported the dead body of the assailant. In less than an hour before and after the same day, the truck rolled over and the driver disappeared;

——Three people were injured in the Imperial Hospital, and the injured were not isolated for treatment and observation.

No one reminded them of the danger and contagiousness of these wounded, and these civilians knew nothing.

And such a lack of vigilance and lack of information... What will spread will be an unprecedented large-scale plague.

But it's not that the compound didn't think of this, it's just that they have more to worry about.

Once the compound releases a statement, it will cause turmoil in the whole city, and even the whole country. The economic development of the entire country and future import and export transactions will be affected. They must have conclusive evidence, a definite transmission channel and source before they can issue such a warning information.

However, no one could figure out how much time was left for them.

No sleep for one night.

The next day, Cheng Sheng still went to class as usual, but his class obviously had a different atmosphere.

The students gathered around Cheng Sheng, discussing yesterday's news about the vegetable farm wounding accident.

"Is there a mosaic version in the WeChat group? I read it, and it's scary. Are the teeth of that person inlaid with steel points? When he bites down, blood spurts out!"

"My god... how can you talk about it? Did you escape from the lunatic asylum?"

"No way, a classmate of mine who is studying in Linjing said that that person lives in their community, and he seems to be working in the Imperial Capital as an official."

"Then how did this happen? Bewitched? It's too scary!"

Cheng Sheng interrupted the divergence among the students, and said, "Lu Lin, please send me the video version without the mosaic."

"Professor Cheng? Okay, right away."

Cheng's voice was muted.Look carefully, this is still a different angle from the official video, this one is closer to the scene, so you can see it more clearly.

Chaotic light-colored films appeared in the eyes of the murderer in the vegetable market, and his movement speed could even be called slow.

But when he started to attack violently, he clung to the stall owner tightly, biting frantically, while choking the stall owner with both hands, his fingernails inconspicuously became sharp and black, and the entire deck turned black. Thick and not easy to break.

——As if it evolved for offense.

Cheng Sheng's pupils shrunk: This is very similar to the hypothetical phenomenon he put forward!

Viruses are changing human cells and stimulating human potential...but at the same time amplifying human aggressiveness and aggression, and even losing their sanity?

Cheng Sheng was a little excited, assuming there was a potion that could suppress such aggression, keep people rational and at the same time... evolution?

"My classmate in Linjing was called back by his parents, and he felt that it was not safe for him to live there alone." Lu Lin said, "He said that many students from other places in his class were called back by their parents."

"is it so serious?"

"Who knows..."

Cheng Sheng turned off the video and looked at the students around him: "Okay, this is the end of today's class. You can discuss freely."

"Professor, where are you going?" A student asked.

"I'll watch you discuss." Cheng Sheng spread his hands, signaling for everyone to play freely.

The students below suddenly felt a sense of tension for free defense.

Cheng Sheng: "Don't be restrained, exchange information like just now, it's good."

"Good professor."

Then there was another silence.

Until a student suddenly shouted: "Hey, something happened in Imperial Beijing! There was a riot in a hospital, and it seems to be the same as what happened in Linjing City..."

"Ah? When is the situation?"

"Just now, the pop-up notification from Tencent Video."

"You're done, you still watch Tencent videos in Professor Cheng's class!"

"Get out, this is a system prompt." After the student said something, he looked at Cheng Sheng subconsciously, but saw Cheng Sheng's face darken, which made people uneasy and frightened for no reason. The student swallowed, "Professor, don't believe his slander !"

Cheng Sheng said, "Click on the video."

"Huh? Oh good."

The video is projected onto a large screen in the classroom.

The screen was shaky, and there was a watermark from a live broadcast platform on it. It looked like it was recorded by someone in the hospital, and the voice of the video recorder swallowing and panting could be heard.

"I'm here to restore the truth for everyone." The man lowered his voice and explained to everyone very softly, "As early as a week ago, Dijing Hospital admitted a patient who bit someone and committed a murder, just like the person from the Linjing vegetable market. , but the news was suppressed by the top.”

At this time, the picture is still very stable, only the sound of the other party adjusting their breathing nervously.

"Just after this, Dijing Hospital suddenly tightened access restrictions. Patients in the inpatient department are not allowed to leave the ward at will, and patients with water hanging are only allowed to stay in the outpatient building...etc." The anchor continued.

"And I have internal information, I heard that they were bitten by three medical staff during the treatment process, and those three medical staff, after that, seemed to have a tendency to violence, biting more colleagues .”

"It is said that these people were locked in a cubicle for treatment and observation." The anchor said, "I suspect that this is not treatment at all, but a human experiment."

After the anchor finished speaking, he didn't speak again. He walked very lightly and quickly, hiding in the corner of the wall from time to time, and his reaction was very fast, which made him reach his destination smoothly all the way.

——Maybe the hospital didn't expect someone to break in.

What catches the eye is a white space hung with plastic curtains.

"This is where they imprisoned those medical staff..." the anchor said very softly, approaching the door cautiously.

There is only a palm-sized glass on the wall to see the situation inside. There are eight beds in total, and on each bed lies a patient whose hands and feet are fixed to death.Doctors are drawing blood from their arms.

"Submit to BSL-4..." The host whispered the words on a sealed iron box, and all the dozen tubes of blood samples were put into this sealed iron box.

When the students saw this, they looked at Cheng Sheng cautiously. They all knew that the professor came from the research institute of Imperial Beijing. Only the research institute of Imperial Beijing has a BSL-4 biological research laboratory.

Cheng Sheng just watched the video expressionlessly.

Just a few seconds after the anchor finished saying this, in the isolation ward, someone's heartbeat curve suddenly turned into a straight line, and the ward immediately panicked.

The anchor's breathing was suddenly heavy, and he slammed against the small glass window, muttering in pain: "No, no, baby, take a breath, don't go..."

The students watching the video in the classroom exploded: "Is it his girlfriend?"

"No wonder he said there was inside information. It turns out that his girlfriend is inside... It's too miserable..."

But Cheng Sheng opened his mouth and said to himself, "Stopping the heartbeat doesn't mean it's over."

"Ah? Professor, what do you mean?"

Cheng Sheng didn't speak.

Immediately afterwards, the anchor's exclamation suddenly sounded in the video.

In the palm-sized glass window, a doctor rushed over to perform cardiac resuscitation, and the woman on the bed whose heartbeat had stopped suddenly opened her eyes.

"Wake up, wake up!"

"But the heartbeat... or no heartbeat?!"

"How did this happen? Qiao Qing, can you hear us?"

The rescue doctor leaned down, trying to listen to what the other person was saying, but unexpectedly, the woman lying on the bed suddenly rose up, her seemingly slender hands directly broke the restraint on the bed, and grabbed the doctor's eyes with a wave.

With a scream, the woman's hand was dripping with blood, and an eyeball with a severed optic nerve was caught in her palm.

The woman's face was numb, and the doctor fell limply on the ground, and was lifted by her hand. With two bangs, she pulled out the restraints that bound her feet, and got off the bed stiffly and slowly.

At the same time, the patients lying on the other seven beds also showed signs of cardiac arrest.

The piercing and straight "di--" came out from the connected life instruments, one after another, filling the small isolation ward, as if the horn of death was blown.

Then just a few seconds later, the people on the seven beds, just like the first woman, opened their eyes abruptly.

……

All the doctors in the isolation room screamed and ran out, and the doctors who didn't escape were left in the isolation room forever. The entire snow-white ward was stained with blood-colored wallpaper.

The video screen was shaking extremely violently, and it was obvious that the anchor was also running wildly with everyone, and he shouted while running: "What the hell is going on!?"

But no one could answer him, everyone ran out, rushed into the outpatient building, turned around and closed the glass door of the outpatient building.

"Call the police!"

"Get someone over here!"

The doctors who finally ran out of the isolation ward shouted, but everyone looked at them in bewilderment, and someone even handed them a bottle of water: "What's wrong? You were robbed? Take it easy, I It's the policeman..."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a dull sound from the glass door of the outpatient building.

Everyone looked over subconsciously.

More than a dozen people covered in blood were lying on the glass of the door, shaking their fists.

"My God, they are all injured! Quick, prepare the stretcher!" The nurse at the front desk exclaimed, and hurried to the door to open it.

"Don't open the door!" The anchor screamed, the nurse was stunned for a moment, and looked at him puzzled, but the door was already opened.

The nurse turned her head and asked suspiciously, "Why..."

However, before she finished speaking, her head was torn off by the "person" who rushed up behind her.

Blood spurted out and splashed all over the anchor in front of him. The nurse's hand was still stiff on the doorknob, twitching slightly.

"What are these..." the anchor murmured in despair and horror.

"Yes... It's the living dead, the living dead——"

The video suddenly blacked out, showing that the signal was interrupted.

Refresh again, display: the video has been taken down.
