Idol's Doomsday Survival Guide

Chapter 102 Slime Mold

Ji Nanze was carried into the car and put on a ventilator.

Ever since he got in the car, Ji Ran didn't know where he was going.

You Guohao looked at his bloody look and shook his head regretfully.

"There will be scars. However, in this way, it is not entirely a bad thing to cooperate with me. Without the blood I collected, your senior would have died under the ruins long ago."

"What are you trying to say?" Zou Tu gave him a sharp look.Then he lowered his head and hugged Ji Nanze's hand, crying with distress.

"Your blood is working, and he will recover. However, how he can recover depends on the degree of adaptation. There have also been rejection reactions in the vaccinated before, and this guy was tortured the next day. No ghosts anymore." You Guohao crossed his arms and said to Ji Nanze, "Okay, can you hear me clearly?"

Looking at him, Ji Nanze nodded with difficulty, not knowing what expression to make.

"I'm going to explain everything now."

"Can't we wait until the senior recovers?"

You Guohao stared at Zou Tu seriously: "When he recovers, it will be too late."

He snapped his fingers, and multiple display screens lit up in the car immediately, switching back and forth between different screens.

Every picture is dynamic, and the main theme is ruins and zombies.

There is also a giant infestation creature.

The shooting location should be a subway station, and the picture shakes, as if a precursor to an earthquake.

The filaments at the top of the ceiling burst into electric sparks, and the underground space began to collapse.

The wall skin peeled off a lot, smashing several holes directly on the ground.

From the gaps between the collapsed stones, one can see a snake-shaped creature like an intestine. They swim above, their whole bodies are blood red, and human stumps hang upside down between the folds of their bodies.It could be the abdomen of an infected creature, covered in horny teeth.

It has no upper and lower jaws, only a huge round mouth full of serrated teeth, and its body width is about 15 meters.The moment the monster's body was crushed down, dust swept up the entire corridor.

"What is this..." Zou Tu was stunned.

"It's not over yet." You Guohao said, manually adjusting to the next screen.

Judging from the height and angle, it should be taken by a drone.

The location is in the desert.

Those worm-like creatures can pass through the sand, buildings or the ground unimpeded, like earthworms rolling through the soft mud smoothly.Just looking at their mouthparts makes one's spine tingle, and they are opening their horny teeth bit by bit to the camels along the way.

The audio recorded the piercing screeches of creatures, as well as the muffled thud of worms smashing through rock formations.

The ground shakes and the mountains shake, and the dust rises.

The sand and dust caused a sharp decrease in visibility, blurred vision, and the strong wind lifted the corners of clothes, making it difficult to move an inch.It is no longer possible to distinguish objects a few meters away.

The screen advances.

Ahead lay a huge, motionless worm.

The yellow sand below was getting thicker and thicker, and it took half a day to pull it out.

A huge black shadow loomed in the dust storm. Its volume probably exceeded the carrying range of the base. Through the capture of the screen, only a part of the creature's body could be seen.

Even so, the worm was quietly waiting for something amidst the tilt and vibration. When the picture approached, a burst of golden waves surged around.

Zou Tu tried his best to tell through squinting his eyes. It wasn't a wave at all, but an eye pupil infected with creatures that couldn't be counted by numbers.The light with thought and soul is like a seaside city in the evening, with bright and dazzling brilliance rising along the coast.

A figure sits casually on top of the worm, one leg draped over its lap.

As if not affected by the sandstorm, he didn't even squint his eyes.

The picture stopped.

"The drone was shot down."

"What's going on? ... Who is that?"

"You don't know who it is?" You Guohao laughed, "This is the third split of patient zero. He chose the desert as the location of the split, and infected creatures guard him around the clock."

"the third time……"

"Soon, he's going to have the next split."

"Are these pictures taken by drones? How many pictures are there?"

Zou Tu looked at the pictures displayed on the screen and couldn't believe it.

Among them was a collapsed signal tower. Looking at the familiar buildings around him, his brows frowned.

It is City G.

"Three thousand,750." He walked forward without looking back, and stopped in front of an electronic board broadcasting international news, "In just one week, the infection has become a huge global disaster."

Zou Tu took off the electronic board on the wall and handed it to Ji Nanze.

Above is a blond female announcer, she is pointing out several shelters on the satellite map and simulating the nearest route.A statistic of the number of casualties floated below, and the number of casualties and infections was too large to be counted.Then, the scene switched to dozens of distorted video shots.

They have to squint to see clearly.In the blurry picture, occasionally a cocoon-shaped thing can be seen beating like a heart.Zou Tu and Ji Nanze looked at each other, they had seen this thing before.On the ground floor of the pedestrian street, they personally encountered Patient Zero—You Guohao called this process a split?

"What's going on here? How could he split so many times in such a short period of time?"

Zou Tu withdrew his body, he just wanted to ask You Guohao what conditions could cause patient zero to split.

But when he thought of You Guohao's despicable and shameless face, he felt unhappy.

"He can. If it were him, absolutely. Don't underestimate slime molds. They may seem like tiny creatures, but they are more tenacious and deadly than anything."

You Guohao stood in the dark and adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose.Under the complicated stares of the two, he smiled indifferently: "I know you have a lot of opinions on me. For now, our purpose is the same. So, you should listen to my explanation."

***

Zou Tu thought that it would be better to wait for Ji Nanze's physical condition to recover before continuing.

So the car was driven for more than 30 minutes, and the wound gradually healed, but scars were left on the larger wounds to varying degrees.The female researcher beside You Guohao came over and removed the ventilator.

"How is your body?" Zou Tu hurried up to support him.

"I'm fine." He looked around and touched the recovered cheekbones, "Where's Ji Ran? Why did he..."

Why don't you come and see me.

"He still has work to do." You Guohao looked at him, "We are continuing to locate the location of patient zero, and try our best to find out where he will split next time."

Ji Nanze took a sip of water and agreed to continue listening to his story.

You Guohao played tricks, he said the story was very long, they had to listen to him patiently.

They sat on chairs facing each other, with only one female researcher holding a tablet behind them.

He looked at Zou Tu and Ji Nanze, not guilty, not flustered, and not in a hurry to get to the point, so he smiled meaningfully.

"You seem to be getting closer, Nanze, do you have a basic understanding of him?"

"Including everything you did to him. Knowing everything."

"How do you feel?"

"It's not good." Ji Nanze frowned and stared at him, "For your own selfish desires, you are really devoid of conscience."

"Then you really wronged me. No, you can't say it was wronged." You Guohao looked at him with a smile on his face, "At least it's my own selfish desire that prevents him from becoming the second Patient Zero."

When he raised his finger to Zou Tu, Ji Nanze froze.Of course, Zou Tu himself didn't react, and the movement of his hands stopped immediately.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered what Patient Zero had yelled in the elevator room of Nanshan Avenue earlier.

What is the difference between them.

What exactly does that mean.

You Guohao seemed very satisfied with their expressions, he waved to the female researcher without saying anything.

She handed over the tablet, and You Guohao looked down at the screen and said, "Just explain it this way, based on what I know about you. You definitely won't believe it. So, how about this person?"

He opened the oldest video in the album, and it showed the face of an old man, looking calm and arrogant.

Zou Tu recognized the other party at a glance.

"You still keep..."

"Yes, it's Zou Xianzhong." You Guohao's finger rested on the play button for a while, "Although I don't really want to see him, but only from here can you fully understand what happened... thing."

His hand was released, and the video started playing from the first second.

The background sound is full of the sound of things being smashed, glasses, instruments, tables and chairs hit the wall angrily and smashed to pieces.

The angle of video shooting is under the table, which is very hidden.Ji Nanze knew without thinking that this video might be a fatal threat to Zou Xianzhong.

"Haiying is dead." The old man walked back and forth between the tables and chairs with his hands behind his back, "Haiying is dead!"

"They are all dead." The photographer corrected him, "Not only Song Haiying, but also her son."

"That doesn't matter, he doesn't matter, that brat doesn't matter at all! He deserves to die, he deserves to die! He killed my Haiying!"

Zou Tu kicked the stool leg with the toe of his shoe.

"Director, calm down. Didn't we bring back that thing?—Now is a great opportunity. If we do it, it will be a true medical miracle, and our discovery will amaze the world!"

"Haiying is dead!" The old man was furious, "What use is I for this thing? Destroy it, let it disappear from my eyes... Or, or hit all of it into that brat's body."

"Are you serious?"

"Otherwise? Otherwise, destroy the things we have worked so hard to transport!"

"I support your experiment and your starting point, but he is your grandson in blood. We haven't even tried animal experiments."

"I don't need it, do I need to repeat it? - I don't need him, I don't need this bastard! Get in!" The old man overturned the table and roared, "Inject them all into his body, If there is really a benign reaction, then inject it into my Haiying."

The video stops here.

You Guohao looked at Zou Tu with interest.His face was pale, his fingers were clutching the hem of his clothes, and his knuckles were starting to turn white.This short video illustrates many things, but also a serious problem.Drenched in sweat, he raised his head and looked at You Guohao.

"He said, I'm dead too, it's... what's going on."

"How about it, did you know your grandfather better?" You Guohao didn't answer him in a hurry, but leaned against the wall and shrugged, "...you still don't understand?"

"Is this the vaccine injected into Zou Tu's body? A vaccine that can work on the dead?" Ji Nanze looked at him and squeezed Zou Tu's hand.He can't give the other party much strength, but at this time, they must summon up courage, "No. The point is, what exactly are they transporting. Why didn't Song Haiying wake up in the end?"

You Guohao glanced at him appreciatively, but he didn't answer all of them.

"It's a slime mold," he said, "a special slime mold brought back from the rainforest to the laboratory."
