Chapter 512 The so-called zombies
Something really happened.
And it is a very remarkable event, something that the "Revolutionary Army" cannot handle at all.
As mentioned before, the initial rioters were caused by the spread of the epidemic, and a large number of people fell ill in the shelter, and Lucia's official did not properly handle this matter, which led to the public grievances and riots.
However, after the riot, the problem of the spread of the epidemic was not solved.
On the contrary, due to the riot, a large number of people came out of the originally closed shelter, causing the spread of the epidemic, and instead created a large number of infected people in a short period of time.
Originally, the Revolutionary Committee planned to wait until the situation stabilized before starting to deal with the epidemic.
They just quarantined the infected and sent one of the few doctors to provide some treatment within their ability in order to control the situation.
At the beginning, there seemed to be no problem with this, but something like a virus will mutate.
In fact, as long as the virus proliferates, its genome will undergo mutations at all times. Most of the mutations are lethal, and only a few can survive.
However, during a virus infection, it needs to proliferate millions of times, and there is naturally a chance of mutation.
Usually, mutations in the virus will only be more adaptable to the environment, but occasionally they will become very dangerous, such as lethality, air gel, droplet transmission, etc.
Although the possibility is very low, there are still viral mutations in theory, making people as aggressive as zombies.
In fact, this situation is not without it. For example, rabies, which is well-known, will show a certain degree of mania, irritability and aggressiveness after infection due to attack of the nervous system.
Of course, this is just a possibility, and the mutated virus only makes living people very aggressive. It is against biology that the corpse can move after death and have simple intelligence, just like in the movie.
As for the standard configurations among these zombies that are evolving at high speed and are instantly healed, as well as the mind power, brain stones and other things, they only exist in imagination.
The problem encountered by the "Revolutionary Army" is that some of the infected people suddenly become manic, full of aggressiveness, and even begin to bite others.
This scene like a zombie movie scared everyone and immediately made most of the infected people frightened. They did not have the ability to tell whether it was rabies or zombie viruses. For a moment, everyone thought it was zombie infection.
So they collapsed instantly.
Everyone was screaming and fleeing from the isolation area. Even the seriously infected people who were unable to move due to infection with the virus were struggling to stay away from the guys who became like zombies.
But they wanted to escape, but the people outside the quarantine area dared not let them out.
Just kidding, behind them are those violent guys like zombies. Who can guarantee that these infected people are fine?
So for a moment, the gate of the isolation area became a line of life and death. Outside the door is life, and inside the door is hell of death.
Fortunately, although the incident happened suddenly, it has to be said that there are still a few reliable people under the Revolutionary Committee. They notified the committee immediately, and Dalia and Vasily and other leaders of the committee arrived at the scene immediately.
Looking at this tragic situation, Dalia naturally wanted to release the infected person inside.
But her decision was stopped.
"You can't let it go! They have become zombies, and we will die if we release it!" Several Lucia strong men holding weapons at this time were full of fear. Although they had guns in their hands, their legs were shaking at this moment.
Even if Lucia's men are not afraid of heaven or earth, even brown bears dare to slap them twice, zombies are different.
Thanks to the blessing of zombie movies that have become popular over the years, everyone knows that this thing will be contagious and will become the same thing if bitten, so no one dares to open this door.
Even though Dalia has always been very prestigious, no one is willing to listen to this order at this time.
Especially the constant screams from the isolation area made everyone unwilling to open the door to isolate life and death.
But someone rushed up and prepared to open the door.
"What are you going to do? You can't open the door!" Two strong men guarding the door pointed their guns at Vasily who was opening the door.
However, Vasily did not look at the muzzle pointing to his head, but said calmly: "These people are still saved now. Even zombies can't stop the bullets. If you don't take advantage of the fewer infected people to control the situation, you will not be able to control it when there are more and more infected people!
And don’t forget that the virus can be transmitted through the air. If it is infected, you will be infected long ago. That is not something that can be infected by just a bite!”
The two strong men who were frightened by Vasily's words kept pointing guns at Vasily's head, but never pulled the trigger.
Until he really opened the door and released the infected person who wanted to escape, the gun never sounded.
Vasily, the two strong men, and everyone standing at the door, hurriedly moved away to avoid being dispersed by the surging crowd.
However, these infected people who escaped from the ascension did not run away. The isolation area is a shelter area. The gate they were just here connected to the underground passage behind, and the underground passage has been blocked by the people called by Vasily who had been prepared.
Although these infected people escaped from the isolation area and were not bitten by the zombies inside, they were still restricted and isolated at this moment.
Vasily did not care about the escaped people, but snatched a gun from the strong man beside him and pointed it directly at a guy with bloody mouth and a ferocious expression on his face that rushed out of the isolation area, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
The bullet was very effective and directly penetrated the head of the infected person with bloody mouth.
Dalia also snatched another gun at this moment and stood with Vasily. The two guns rang out together, and more blood on her face, showing that the infected person was knocked down.
Seeing Vasily and Daliya successfully knocked down these "zombies" and with the blessing of "leading the charge", the people next to them who were originally sent to guard finally gathered up the courage, followed behind them, and entered the quarantine area together.
"Tie those who are not dead from these 'zombies' and carry the bodies away. They are likely to be mutated by viruses. We need to let professionals see it." Vasily thought of the doctors who helped treat the wounded before, and felt that they might know what was going on.
