Wild grow

When Fushen came to the door of Enoch's ward, he unexpectedly found that it was much more lively than he had imagined. The medical staff came and went, coming and going in and out of the disinfection room in the connecting corridor of the ward—the most important thing was, Each of them is wearing full-armed isolation equipment. Even behind the transparent mirror made of special materials, God Fu can still see the tension, exhaustion, and...fear in their eyes.

What's going on here?

The windows of the isolation ward were covered by the automatic curtains inside. Fu Shen looked around, trying to grab a medical staff who didn't seem so busy to identify himself and ask to enter the ward to visit Enoch, but before he had time to act was stopped--

"Sorry, the situation of the patients in the No. [-] special isolation ward is unstable, and the visiting authority is not allowed for the time being."

Fushen raised his head and looked at that person, and then both of them recognized who the other was. The medical staff in front of him was the one who stood in front of the ward and told Fushen a serious joke last time. Fushen didn't just give up like this. He grabbed the other party: "I don't need to enter the ward to visit, you just need to take me to the monitoring room. As a family member of the patient, I think I have the right to know the progress of the patient's current condition... Whether a person is alive or dead, at least Give me a look."

Probably because the young man in front of him spoke too calmly when he mentioned "life or death", the medical staff stopped the steps that were about to leave, and gave him a rather surprised look. Quickly continued: "I have read your previous pathological analysis data on Enoch, and found that those cells may be undergoing self-phagocytosis of the cell wall to complete the process of cell type transformation—"

"..."

"I don't think it's entirely unreasonable what you said earlier that he's undergoing some sort of 'evolution'."

After listening to Fushen's words, the man was silent for a moment. According to common sense, it is not surprising that high school students can understand the basic structure of cells. What is more interesting is the calm attitude of the young man in front of him. : Normally, people of this age still only smoke, drink, pick up girls, and party and kick. How can it be possible to sit down and analyze such things calmly?

After drawing a conclusion that is almost close to the truth, how could it be this reaction?

Shouldn't he be jumping up and down with excitement that his brother is becoming the Amazing Spider-Man or something?

The medical staff hesitated for a few seconds. After a while, he seemed to sigh behind the isolation suit. Looking around, it seemed that no one was paying attention to this side. He waved to God Fu: "Come here."

Fushen followed the medical staff to the monitoring room of the ward on the second floor. The doctor on duty inside was a little surprised to see an outsider coming in, until the doctor walking in front of Fushen took off the mask on his head. Explanation: "Families of patients in special isolation ward No. [-]."

"Huh? Ward No. [-]? But Claude," the staff member subconsciously stood up to block the screen behind him, and he looked at Fushen, "Isn't this a child?"

Before the doctor named Claude had time to answer this question, the boy who had been following him obediently had already strode forward and ran to the screen, ignoring the medical staff behind him, "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" After trying to stop it for a long time, he successfully saw the situation of Enoch in the ward at this moment——

It has to be said that Fushen was still shocked by what he saw even though he was fully prepared mentally.

Different from general wards that use dim lights to relax patients, the brightness of the entire ward can be described as "dazzling"...

Fushen got used to the sudden brightness for a while, then narrowed his eyes slightly, and went to self-study to observe the young man surrounded by medical staff... The bright light helped him to see Enoch easily, but in Seeing the child for the first time, he still couldn't help but raise his eyes to see if the sign on the surveillance camera was really Enoch's ward——

After repeated confirmations, he had to accept a fact: the creature lying in the center of the screen was indeed his cheap brother.

Like a scaled creature that has just been fished out of the water, the boy's pale skin was covered with dark green scales... At this moment, those scales seemed to have spread to cover his face. , Enochs on the hospital bed seemed to be in great pain because of this, he closed his eyes tightly, and the frequency of the mist on the breathing mask showed that he had a high breathing rate.

The sheets under him were full of shocking blood—Fushen bent down to look carefully, and then found that the blood was seeping out from the gaps in the scales covering his body...

At this time, there were still some green scales on the bed sheet that seemed to have fallen from his body. A medical staff member was holding tweezers in one hand and a petri dish in the other, and was carefully putting the scales into the petri dish——

"Beginning yesterday afternoon, the patient entered the second infection period after Elfinu virus infection, and fragile pus bubbles began to appear on his body. Our medical staff is preparing to disinfect him as they did for the first batch of infected soldiers, but It was discovered immediately that those pus bubbles did not stay for a long time, and they were quickly pierced by some new hard scales." Doctor Claude's voice came from behind Fushen, "It's you The ones you see now, for a few hours, they completely covered the patient's body, as if they formed the armor that nature bestows on reptilian creatures! The miracle of the creator, I have never seen scales grow on humans , it was like two different viruses were fighting in the patient's body like never before..."

When Dr. Claude spoke, the boy with his hands on the monitoring console remained silent the whole time: Most people have never seen such scales, but that doesn't mean he hasn't seen them either.

——Yes, of course Fushen has seen something similar, on the body of test subject No. [-].

...Is it because "Gunnier" evolved from No. [-] itself, so it carries the genes of No. [-] test body itself?

The expression on his face became more and more gloomy, and Fushen didn't notice that his hands on the console were tightly clenched into fists: "The symptoms of the Elfinu virus are gone?"

"It can't be said that he is not at all. The softening of the bones and blood vessels in the patient's body has not stopped because of this. If it weren't for the protection of those scales, he would probably be like a balloon full of blood and internal organs. At any time-ah, I hope I don't want to scare you."

"These scales have signs of falling off?"

"The scales of animals in the natural world will also fall off naturally. Generally speaking, after the new scales are replaced, their armor will become tougher—"

"Enoch is not an animal."

"Oh, he used to be... To be precise, for a few hours, he couldn't even hold up to be an animal - when the first new breed of cells with cell walls completely replaced the functional cells in his body, we It was found that his body began to resist all the nutrient fluids being input to maintain the normal functions of the human body—we found in an accidental test that his body began to respond to light, and at the same time, the carbon dioxide level in the ward decreased rapidly, while the oxygen level on the rise..."

Fu Shen was silent for a moment, then turned his head and glanced at Dr. Claude with weird eyes: "You mean, for a certain period of time, Enoch was photosynthesizing like a plant?"

Simply ridiculous!

However, the expression on the face of the doctor in front of him didn’t look like he was joking, he shrugged: “Isn’t it literally a ‘vegetative person’? Is it, this intensity is barely enough to maintain his basic needs—"

Fushen also has a headache.

"Are those first infected soldiers like him?"

"I'm not sure, I tried to get in touch with my colleagues on their side for the first time, but because of the second explosion, there are some problems with the communication equipment, and I haven't been able to get in touch with them for the time being... "

Fushen nodded, indicating that he knew, and wanted to ask Claude if there was anything he could do to help—but before he could say anything, he closed his mouth, because he suddenly found that the development of the whole situation had already It was completely out of his cognitive scope, and everything in front of him seemed to be unable to be explained by his known knowledge.

After thanking Dr. Claude, Fu Shen turned around and went back to the corridor of the hospital. Looking at the busy medical staff coming and going, he hesitated for a while, took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Zhao Heng, who was probably already on the plane and took off. ——

[Le Fushen: After getting off the plane, please arrange for someone to send part of the detoxification serum to the nursing home. My brother's situation is not optimistic. ] After sending the message, he was stunned for a while, his mind was in a mess and he couldn't find a clue, and finally these irritable emotions seemed to become more and more blurred as his consciousness was withdrawn...

It has been more than 24 hours since Fushen slept peacefully last time.

No one noticed that in the corner of the corridor of the ward, a teenager was leaning on a cold chair and fell into a deep sleep. His long and thick eyelashes covered the thick dark circles under his eyes, and he was trembling slightly with his calm breathing ...

Fushen had another nightmare.

In the dream, his eyes were like a moving camera, watching No. [-] and the other four test subjects move quickly, disperse, and avoid the army's search respectively—

They hid in jungles, deserts and lakes. The last thing Fushen saw was No. [-] flapping its wings and flying towards the clouds, disappearing from his sight. When he flew into the clouds, the sunlight in the sky disappeared suddenly. A blood-red full moon appeared in the sky, and night fell.

Then the whole camera moves down uncontrollably.

The city shrouded under the disappearing sky of Number Six was illuminated——

Although that can no longer be described as a city.

Perhaps the once prosperous city is now riddled with holes and scorched earth—streets with dilapidated vehicles parked randomly, shops with broken glass on both sides of the street, empty high-rise buildings without lights...

Blood, coke, and scrapped guns and weapons thrown away by someone—the whole city was eerily quiet.This is a dead city, and there are traces of human beings struggling with something everywhere. However, for some reason, human beings finally gave up on it and evacuated completely.

Fushen in the dream hesitated, but at this moment, he suddenly heard a loud noise of "Caracalla" coming from a certain street in the city. He tried to turn his gaze to find the source of the sound——

Finally, on a certain main street, he saw Test Subject No. [-], dragging a huge tank gun, walking slowly - its huge body was almost two stories high; every step, every step would be leveled. The pavement trampled gravel, leaving a huge footprint; it breathed heavily, and the breath it exhaled became a cloud of condensed gas in the air...

The number one destroyed the city?

Just as Fushen fell into a slight panic because of this, his line of sight changed again. The camera was first aimed at an abandoned dilapidated building, and then zoomed in infinitely, showing a black paint on the [-]th floor of the building. Behind the painted French windows—

The broken floor-to-ceiling windows no longer serve as a shield, and the cold night wind blows in. On the edge of the floor-to-ceiling windows, a girl about six or seven years old is sitting on the ground. The wind blows her hair. After a few seconds, she turns her head. Come on, to just look at Fushen in the dream like this!

There was a malicious look in those red pupils, and she said with a smile: "Look, thanks to your blessings, the night is coming,..."

Her lips moved.

However, Fushen didn't have time to hear the last word.

Fushen was a little anxious, he thought it might be a very important clue, because when the girl finished speaking, he only felt his heart was hit hard by something, and then he only heard a loud "pop" , as if someone forcibly overturned the camera, and all the scenes in front of him suddenly went dark!

"...!"

The boy woke up from his dream. Before he had time to wipe off the cold sweat from his forehead, he bent down while clutching his heart. The pain of his heart being hit hard at the last moment in the dream made him twitch slightly...

"Student? Classmate, are you okay?...Wow, your face is covered with sweat, doesn't it look good?!"

"..."

A familiar voice rang in his ears. The young man raised his head and looked at the noisy young man who was bending over worriedly to look at him with empty eyes. After a long time, he blinked: "Yucheng?"

"That's right, it's me," Yucheng smiled and clapped his hands lightly, "Why are you sleeping here?"

"...Why did you arrive so soon?"

"Normal aircraft speed," Yucheng said, "It's also possible that the captain is impatient and drove a little faster? ... However, it's not much faster, that is—"

"what time is it now?"

"Well, four fifteen in the afternoon?" Yucheng looked at his watch.

What, he only slept for three hours?

wrong.

Fu Shen was stunned, and asked a question that seemed a little strange: "What day is it today?"

"Wednesday."

"..."

At least in his memory, when he "visited" Enoch in the monitoring room, the time should be Tuesday... It seems...he must have slept for 27 hours.

Fushen wiped his face, and couldn't believe that he had slept for so long. The most important thing was that he felt less energetic now than when he didn't sleep: "How is Enoch? Has the serum been delivered?"

"Ah, I was just about to tell you that your brother is fine. The serum was delivered in time, and his life would be lost if he was later—come and take you to see him..."

Yucheng smiled and pushed Fushen towards the ward. Hearing that Enoch was fine, Fushen also relaxed a little, and temporarily forgot the uneasiness and pain in his chest...

He sped up his pace a little, but just as he reached the ward, Yucheng, who was pushing him forward, suddenly stopped and pulled him back.

Fu Shen: "?"

"What, although Enoch is fine now, but now he has become a little...uh!" Yucheng made a embarrassed expression, "It's a little different."

Fushen thought he was talking about the scales. Although he felt somewhat regretful, he still waved his hand to say that he was fine, as long as he was fine.

Yucheng was still hesitant to speak.

Until the two of them came to the ward, Fushen vaguely heard the voice of someone talking inside. When he unexpectedly found out that he was really interested in the healing information of this cheap younger brother who was almost a stranger to "Chu Mobai". When he felt joy, he pushed open the door and saw the scene in the room——

By the bedside of the ward, the boy in the wheelchair looked out the window quietly.

His thin body was covered in a hospital gown like a sack. At this moment, he was cooperating with the medical staff to bring him various measuring tools. When the nurse buckled a frame for measuring heartbeat on his finger , the pale fingertips were pinched slightly red.

As if he heard the sound of someone coming in from behind, the child turned his head. Because of his movement, a strand of silver-white hair fell down from his forehead and covered half of his eyes.

But the other eye, which was looking at Fushen's red eyes, was full of joy, looking at the young man who stood there blankly, he smiled slightly——

"Brother, you are here."
