Laws of the Other World

Zhou Yu touched its head and said: "Humans are like this, they are very fragile. For example, if I am hit on the head, I will die immediately. If I am hit in the heart, I will die quickly. femoral artery... Even with experienced surgeons around, the chances of surviving are slim. This is human beings, not like you."

Even if my healing ability is much stronger than ordinary people because of that S-level creature, this healing ability may not exist forever, and may disappear with the body's metabolism.No matter what, compared to Mo Ye, he was still too fragile.

Mo Ye stepped back and leaned into Zhou Yu's arms.

Mo Ye, do you know what "sadness" is?

"Sad" and "hurt" are not the same.

Mo Ye, like many creatures in the Nibelungen, your healing ability is very strong, and nothing can really "injure" you.

But if a thing you cared about has since disappeared, you will be sad.

And there is no healing in grief.

"Hmm..." Mo Ye murmured softly.

Zhou Yu paused, why did he have the feeling that Mo Ye heard what he was thinking?

In the following days, Zhou Yu did not go on missions, and often drove Mo Ye around the base in a Humvee.Although it looked like a desert, Mo Ye was very happy even playing with the sand.

Until the sun was fully up and the weather was too hot, Zhou Yu would wave his hat to signal Mo Ye to go back with him.

Mo Ye's originally waving wings and ears would droop.

Zhou Yu rubbed Mo Ye's head funnyly while driving the car: "What's wrong? I'll find watermelon for you when I go back?"

Mo Ye still just lay there and ignored Zhou Yu.

Because Zhou Yu also promised Han Li to teach her how to shoot.

Once in the shooting room, Zhou Yu concentrated on teaching Han Li hand in hand, leaving Mo Ye behind.

It squatted there unhappily, staring at Zhou Yu's back.

"Han Li, pay attention to your center of gravity."

Although Zhou Yu was very close to Han Li, he had never met Han Li except to cover up for her.This is why Han Li chose Zhou Yu as his shooting coach.In a base where there are more men than women and few women are gender-unbalanced, if a female doctor like Han Li is too close to the same sex, she will always cause a lot of trouble.

But Zhou Yu is different, he is restrained, and he is a real gentleman in his bones.

This is where Han Li trusted him the most.

Han Li shot several times. It was really bad at first. Mo Ye behind him yawned and even grabbed Zhou Yu's calf with his claws. Zhou Yu didn't turn his head, but just raised his heel and rubbed against Mo Ye. jaw.

Han Li lowered his head and couldn't help laughing: "Zhou Yu, I think if you stay with Mo Ye all the time, you will never want to marry a wife in this life."

"what?"

Mo Ye directly arched Zhou Yu's back with his head. Zhou Yu knew that it would be impossible for him to continue teaching Han Li how to shoot today.

"You king of destruction." Zhou Yu lowered his body and picked up Mo Ye's ear.

Mo Ye pretended to be in pain, made a "woo woo" sound, and grabbed Zhou Yu's arm with his front paws.

"You pretend! Just keep pretending!"

With Mo Ye's strength, it was easy to break free from Zhou Yu.

At the same time, the intercom in Zhou Qing's laboratory rang.

"Hi, I'm Chen Ruoshui from the Marine Biological Research Department. I have some ideas about Nibelungen marine plants and I would like to discuss them with Professor Zhou."

Professor Chen Ruoshui's name Zhou Qing had heard about it early in the morning, and a burst of surprise filled his heart. He immediately opened the first door, and went forward to greet him with his research assistant, Xiaowen.

The moment the second door opened, before Zhou Qing had time to say hello, Professor Chen fell straight onto Xiaowen's body, his whole body twitching, and his temperature was very high.

"Professor Chen! What's wrong with you, Professor Chen!"

Xiaowen just touched Professor Chen's forehead and was frightened by the temperature: "Professor Zhou! Professor Chen has a fever! It's serious!"

"What?" Zhou Qing was dumbfounded. Professor Chen's voice sounded normal in the intercom just now, why did he suddenly have a fever?

Zhou Qing immediately contacted the medical team and sent Professor Chen away.

He stood there with an ominous premonition that something was about to move.

And Han Li's walkie-talkie in the shooting room rang, and the medical team asked her to rush to the emergency room immediately.

"Looks like I won't have a better day today." Han Li returned the gun to Zhou Yu and left in a hurry.

Professor Chen's rescue work did not go well.At first, the medical team thought it was just a simple fever, but with the rapid deterioration, Professor Chen suffered from internal bleeding and muscle decay.

Han Li, who was in charge of directing the rescue work, became alert: "This can't be a simple fever! This is a symptom of hemorrhagic fever!"

"Isn't it...the Nibelungen also has Ebola?"

"Everything is possible!"

Professor Chen's blood sample was sent to the laboratory for virus testing. After testing, there was a certain virus in Professor Chen's blood. More importantly, its infectiousness was unknown but its replication rate was extremely high.

Before the test results were delivered to Han Li, Professor Chen had suffered from respiratory failure and died in extreme pain. His whole body seemed to melt into blood, which was shocking.

Han Li's back was wet with sweat, and her heart was beating heavily. She immediately made a decision: "All medical staff involved in the rescue and those who have been in contact with Professor Chen are all quarantined!"

The base issued a red alert, requiring all personnel to stay in their rooms and not to move around at will.

Li Qian shut down all the nodes of the base, and all departments of the base are in a completely closed state.

Zhou Qing was trapped in the laboratory, and his researchers were extremely nervous, because they had stepped forward to take care of Professor Chen when he fell down. No one could be sure when Professor Chen was infected. , who of them had contact with him before infection, and because of this, the researchers all sat in their corners, neither communicating nor speaking to each other, especially in a country where the mode of transmission of this virus has not been determined case.

Zhou Yu and Mo Ye had just returned to their room.It was the first time Mo Ye heard the red alarm. It straightened its back and put its nose against the alarm light, looking very curious.

At this time, most people still don't know what happened to the base.

Zhou Yu called Song Zhi's room: "Mr. Song, what happened? Did dangerous creatures invade the base?"

Song Zhi didn't hide anything from Zhou Yu, and answered him directly: "It's worse than that. The researchers in the base were infected by an unknown virus. We are now testing this virus to try to find the pathogen and create antibodies if possible. But in the short term, the situation is not optimistic."

All of this happened too suddenly. For Zhou Yu, he was playing with Mo Ye in the base a moment ago, and everything changed a moment later.

"Is my brother Zhou Qing okay?"

"Professor Zhou has not shown signs of infection yet."

Hearing Song Zhi's answer, Zhou Yu felt relieved, he wondered how long the waiting process would take?When will they be able to lift the lockdown?It’s fine if it’s only closed for one day, but if there’s no food or water for two or three days, they’ll all die.

Zhou Yu turned Mo Ye over and shook it in his arms: "Do you know what a virus is?"

Mo Ye still looked at Zhou Yu with his wide eyes open, and suddenly threw Zhou Yu down on the bed with a force, grabbed Zhou Yu's shoulders with two small claws, rubbed the tip of Zhou Yu's nose with his nose and stretched out Tongue came and wanted to lick Zhou Yu's mouth, Zhou Yu hurriedly turned his face to avoid it.

"Only you, a little thing, still have such a leisurely mood at this time." Zhou Yu shook his head helplessly.

Mo Ye has grown a lot, and its two hind legs are directly attached to Zhou Yu's waist, as if half-sitting on Zhou Yu's body.

Zhou Yu patted it on the back, and said in a low voice: "Okay, okay, get up for me, you are very heavy."

Mo Ye immediately showed a dissatisfied expression, remained motionless, and deliberately increased his strength to hold Zhou Yu down, as if to say: You are lying, I am not serious at all, I will punish you.

Zhou Yu didn't move at all, letting Mo Yelai lean on him, he sighed: "It seems that the virus is not only unique to our world..."

Mo Ye leaned down and pressed his face against Zhou Yu's.

Such intimacy and warmth made Zhou Yu, who was originally worried about Zhou Qing, feel a little more relaxed.

At this time, Song Zhi received a report from Han Li, and the situation became more serious. The two medical staff who participated in the rescue of Professor Chen had symptoms such as high fever, body ulcers, and internal bleeding.

Han Li said to Song Zhi with a trembling voice: "Mr. Song, I have also had direct contact with Professor Chen, and I think I can't escape this time..."

"Please don't be too pessimistic. Take a step back and say that if something really happens to you here, all the promises of the Juli Group to you will be fulfilled." Song Zhi's voice sounded calm, but he half looked up. Lifting his forehead, he tried his best to suppress his tense breathing.

"Thank you!" Han Li burst into tears.

When the communication was interrupted, Song Zhi closed his eyes and opened his own drawer, stretched his hand in as if to touch something, but finally took it back.

At the same time, Li Qian, who was trapped in the monitoring room, witnessed everything from the surveillance video. He saw how Professor Chen died and how the infected medical staff struggled in pain.

But even so, Han Li still put on the protective clothing firmly, treated the infected medical staff as much as possible, and accompanied them to face the last moment of death.

During this period of time, Han Li has been waiting for the worst to come. Her recent health is not very good, she has a cough and cold, and her immunity is low. Although she is far away from the researcher who was rescued, she knows that The virus is supposed to be airborne.The chances of not being infected yourself are very low.

The medical staff infected with the virus died one after another, and Han Li was the only one left in the department. She simply took off the isolation suit, took out a bottle of nutrient solution from the refrigerator, and took two gulps. Sit down against the wall.

The entire emergency room was dead silent, except for Li Qian who accompanied Han Li through surveillance.

"Hey! Li Qian sing a song and listen to it!" Han Li closed his eyes and patted the ground with his hand wearily, loudly.

Soon, Li Qian's tone-deaf singing came from the radio.

Han Li showed a funny expression: "My God, after being sung like this by you, I don't even remember the tune of that song!"

When Li Qian finished singing a song, Han Li hugged his knees and burst into tears.

"I want to live, I really want to live!"

Li Qian couldn't say a word of comfort, so he could only feel sad with her in front of the surveillance.

At the same moment, Xiao Wen, a research assistant who was in the same research room as Zhou Qing, was lying on the table and started moaning. His body looked very hot, Bai Gua was completely wet with sweat, and his ears were bleeding.

The researchers fell into panic, and they leaned against the wall one after another, staying far away from Xiaowen.

"He is the only one among us who has direct contact with Professor Chen! He must be infected!"

Zhou Qing swallowed, and just as he was about to step forward, another researcher said, "Professor Zhou, be careful!"

At that moment, Xiao Wen fell to the ground, his body was as limp as a pool of stagnant water, and he could even faintly smell the rotten breath in the air.His eyes, nose and ears were bleeding, and his face was pale and extremely painful.

The researchers were uncontrollably excited, and their desire to survive made them rush to the second door, slamming on the door vigorously, and shouting loudly: "Let us out! Let us out!"

But at this moment, Li Qian, who was manipulating the system, was tracking down what Professor Chen, who was the first to get sick, had been exposed to all day.

According to Han Li's calculations, it took Professor Chen no more than three hours from the time he started showing symptoms of high fever to when he finally died.It took only two hours for the medical staff who rescued him to develop high fever symptoms after contacting him. That is to say, the incubation period of the virus from infection to onset is not long.

Everything seemed normal for Professor Chen from breakfast to entering the research room, so Li Qian called out his monitor in the research room.

In his laboratory, there is a sea creature that looks like a jellyfish, but it has a different appearance than ordinary jellyfish.The shape like a golden skirt, gracefully spinning and dancing in the petri dish, has some kind of synapse on its surface.This kind of synapse can emit a strange biological static electricity, which makes the person who touches it feel happy and relieved.

This jellyfish has a very simple name, that is Nibelung jellyfish.It can survive in fresh and salt water.More importantly, in the absence of water, it can still stretch out its body, like an umbrella, waiting to catch prey at any time.But its prey are generally small insects or aquatic organisms, which are not lethal.

Li Qian saw Professor Chen put his finger into the glass dish with Nibelung jellyfish.The jellyfish touched him gently with its own synapses, and his face showed an extremely nostalgic expression as if he was addicted.

Ten seconds later, he finally withdrew his finger, subconsciously sucked it in his mouth, and continued his observation and research.Then he left the research room and went to Zhou Qing's research room with a certain document.

Li Qian reported the news to Song Zhi as if he had discovered a new continent.

The virus research team at the base immediately went there in full gear and took samples of the Nibelungen jellyfish.On the same day, they discovered a certain virus in the body of this jellyfish. This virus was originally transmitted through contact, but after entering the human body, it quickly began to mutate, adapted to the new environment, and became able to spread through the air. spread.

At this time, Zhou Qing stared blankly at all the researchers who started to have a fever, which was a sign of virus infection. They fell around him and tried to open the door with difficulty. Only Zhou Qing was still standing, This Shura hell seems to have nothing to do with him.

His thoughts were in a mess, and he didn't know how to move his feet.

When will he fall?

When does a fever start?

What does visceral bleeding feel like?

Fear slowly surged into Zhou Qing's heart.

"Don't be afraid..." A voice in his mind seemed to pass through the dust and mist, and landed in his heart.

Zhou Qing looked around subconsciously.

"At least you won't get the virus."

That voice was soft, soothing Zhou Qing's nervous mood.

"Then...save them...please save them too..." Zhou Qing begged.

He knew that the S-level creature that had saved him was somewhere, he knew everything, and knew everything.

"I can't. You won't be infected just because you're special, not because of me."

"Special? What's special about me?"

But more than ten seconds passed, and Zhou Qing didn't hear any answer.

Li Qian looked at Zhou Qing standing alone in the center of the research room talking to himself through the screen, as if he was about to have a nervous breakdown, and he begged Song Zhi anxiously: "Mr. Song—please release Professor Zhou immediately." , before he is infected with the virus!"

Song Zhi frowned: "You mean that Professor Zhou is still safe and sound? What about the other people who were locked in the same research room as him?"

"All...all have fallen!"

Song Zhi clasped his fingers tightly, showing a puzzled expression: "This is impossible! If everyone else is dead, why is Zhou Qing still alive? Where is Han Li? How is Han Li's situation?"

"Han Li is fine for the time being. She drank a few bottles of nutritional supplements, cried a lot, and is now asleep."

Song Zhi narrowed his eyes and thought for two seconds: "Send the medical team over now and bring the two of them out for isolation and observation."

Hearing these words, Li Qian finally felt relieved. He really couldn't bear to let Han Li and Professor Zhou be trapped in such an environment, and his spirit and will would be completely destroyed.

Just as Zhou Yu and Mo Ye were lying on the bed playing boredly, Song Zhi's voice sounded from the communicator above his head: "Now open your door and put on the isolation suit placed outside the door, and go to the ninth area."

Zhou Yu got up without saying a word, and put on the protective clothing according to what Song Zhi said. Mo Ye wanted to go out with him, but Zhou Yu put his hand on Mo Ye's head and pushed it back into the room.

Zhou Yu half-kneeled in front of it, and said to it in a very serious tone: "Mo Ye, I don't know if this virus will affect you, so you can't go out, please stay in my room obediently? "

Mo Ye's excited expression, which he thought he could go out with Zhou Yu, suddenly became lonely. It looked at Zhou Yu with pleading eyes, but Zhou Yu still shook his head.

Mo Ye had no choice but to lower his head and take a half step back. Zhou Yu looked at it, closed the door, then put his palm on the door, and said in a low voice, "Good boy, I'll be back."

Zhou Yu turned around and left quickly. When he came to the ninth district and saw Song Zhi also wearing protective clothing standing in front of the isolation ward, he paused.

Because the person in the isolation ward is not someone else, but his younger brother Zhou Qing.Zhou Qing was obviously still in shock. He sat by the bed, waiting for the medical staff in protective clothing to draw blood for him for various tests.

"Mr. Song, didn't you just say that my brother is not infected?" Zhou Yu asked coldly.

"He hasn't fallen down yet, especially when all his research assistants have been infected and died. Should I answer you if he was infected by the virus? What we want to know most now is, in the same In the closed area, all his research assistants were infected with the same virus, but Professor Zhou was safe and sound. Why? Has his blood developed antibodies to this virus? If so, then the people in our entire base be saved."

Zhou Qing seemed to see Zhou Yu, he turned his face sideways and smiled with difficulty.Zhou Yu knew that Zhou Qing was stronger than he imagined.

But the results of the test were puzzling, that is, Zhou Qing did not have any virus antibodies in his body, and of course he was not infected with the virus.Not only Zhou Qing, but also Han Li who was also in isolation.

It is almost impossible for the virologists at the base to decode the virus in a short period of time.

Song Zhi packed everything known about the virus and sent the information to another world: "It would be great if Jiang Jinghang was here."

"Jiang Jinghang?" Zhou Yu thought the name was familiar, but couldn't remember it.

"The number one chair in virology under Juli Group." Song Zhi replied.

"At this moment, I suddenly feel that the outside world may be safer." Sitting in front of the computer, Li Qian sighed.

"Zhou Yu, the creature carrying this virus is the Nibelungen jellyfish you have seen. I wonder if you have any information about this creature from Elpis?" Song Zhi looked at Zhou Yu .
