"I'm not a doctor, why do I need to see a doctor?" Alexey's answer was very inhumane. He actually didn't care about Chu Qiu's condition. To say that his biggest helper in the league is no one other than Chu Qiu. He is really a white-eyed wolf.

.

"Although I promised to let you study my body, I didn't promise to let you lie with your eyes open. We are also old acquaintances. You should know what I hate the most, right?"

However, Hong Tao didn't think so. He had noticed Alexey's abnormal behavior with his peripheral vision when he spoke. When he heard about Chu Qiu's condition, the guy's writing suddenly stopped and he glanced over here. It was obvious that he was not completely

Indifferent.

"... Judging from the symptoms, she may have been infected with the zombie virus No. 14." Under the intimidating gaze, Alexey suddenly became scared. It's not that he is not afraid of death at all, but his thinking is very different from that of ordinary people. Now he is studying the target

It's so easy to get, I can't bear to die.

"Zombie virus No. 14... was developed by you at Antong Machinery Company?" Upon hearing this name, Hong Tao probably guessed what it was.

"It is the product of a failed experiment. It causes irreversible damage to human brain cells. It does not really turn into a living corpse." Alexey said while quietly moving his butt to the side, trying to distance himself a little.

"What is irreversible damage?" Hong Tao asked with a squint from the corner of his eyes.

"...Probably...like a vegetative state, it will never recover. Please don't get me wrong, this virus has been completely destroyed when the secret laboratory of Antong Machinery Company was closed. I really don't know how it spread.

.”

Seeing this expression, Alexey's thin face actually showed a trace of flushing, and he raised his hands and put them on his chest, as if this could resist possible blows.

"The two children who were sent to Xinyang for experiments were also infected by a similar virus?" Hong Tao fiercely waved his right hand as if to strike, but half of it was withdrawn, scaring Alexey so much that he rolled and crawled several meters away.

Far.

"It's different, it's different. It's a product for further testing. It has a one-third chance of not damaging brain cells. But the subsequent research has nothing to do with me. They took it away, no, they snatched it away!

They took it away together with my three assistants while I wasn't paying attention.

Please believe that I did not deliberately modify the zombie virus to use on the human body. It is too unethical. Whether those experiments failed or succeeded, they were just a by-product of the process of figuring out the secrets of the virus. I never knew that they wanted to clone the zombies.

!”

Although he didn't receive this slap, Alexey was still frightened and crouched a few meters away without stopping or running away. Without waiting for Hong Tao to continue questioning, he simply told the general story and results of the secret project.

, risking his life to pick himself out.

"Let's go, we have to drive a little longer before dark, and try to cross the north side of Fragrant Mountain. How are you? Can you still walk? Don't show off, or take the initiative to speak up when you can't bear it. If your feet are broken, it will affect your ability to walk.

Motivation, I will just put a knife on your neck and take the opportunity to end the agreement between us."

Even if Alexei intentionally copied living corpses, Hong Tao did not intend to hold him accountable from a moral level. Scientists are not so magical and can study whatever they want. Most of human scientific discoveries are accidental and often run counter to the original intention.

.

If Madame Curie had known that the artificial radioactive elements she discovered would later be made into nuclear weapons, threatening the safety of all mankind at all times, would she have regretted it? When Nobel invented explosives, did he know how many people his invention would accelerate?

death?

The botanist Galston, the inventor of Agent Orange, never dreamed that the drug he planned to use to promote high soybean yields would be used as a weapon and used extensively in the Vietnam War.

If we had to follow ordinary people's logic to pursue responsibility, more than half of the scientists in the world would be found guilty, and their bodies would even be dug out of graves and whipped. Human inventions have always been double-edged swords, and there is no need to investigate the original intention of the inventor.

, what should be more concerned about is what the user intends to use it for.

"...Are you not angry anymore? In fact, Ms. Chuqiu has never forgotten you, but you left quietly, and she became the supreme leader of the alliance. She must have her own fans and strength. You should understand

of."

Although Alexei is a guy with a very high IQ, he can defeat a large group of professionals with his hobby, but God is fair. If he is too strong in one aspect, he must be weak in some aspects, such as emotional intelligence.

Which pot to open?

"You have been researching for so many years, and you have personally created something similar to a living zombie. Can you explain in words that I can understand why some people became stupid zombies while others became living beings after being infected with the virus?

Corpse?"

Hong Tao didn't want to talk about the issue of early autumn now, especially not with a lunatic. But in the wilderness, two people just walking without talking would make the journey very boring. So he might as well talk about something that scientists are better at, and he was interested in knowing.

Yes.

He has always been puzzled by Zhuma's abnormal changes, but he probably won't be able to figure it out just by thinking about it on his own. At this time, he needs a talented scientist who will not reveal secrets to the outside world to solve the puzzle, and Alexey happens to

Fully qualified.

"It's funny to say that I spent five years trying not to figure out this problem, but I accidentally infected the petri dish because of illness. It took me less than three days to find the answer.

Some functions of influenza viruses and zombie viruses are blocked by influenza viruses. I haven’t figured out the specific components yet, but I am sure that not only influenza viruses can partially block the replication chain of zombie viruses, hepatitis B virus can also do this.

effect.

It's a pity that the number of viruses I can obtain is too small. After you left, the alliance's medical research became more and more closed-minded, unwilling to actively communicate with other survivor groups around the world, and many opportunities to obtain new trial data were lost.

If you are here, you will definitely support me in collecting more virus samples from around the world. After comparing them one by one, it will be easier to find that mysterious substance, so that we can really develop specific drugs or even vaccines!"

As soon as he talked about his research results, Alexey immediately started talking non-stop, taking out all the setbacks, gains, plans, and regrets over the years. It was both a report and a complaint, and his pace was much more brisk.

"Can it be understood that zombie viruses can also treat influenza and hepatitis B?" Although some professional terms and concepts are difficult to understand, Hong Tao still let himself imagine hard and tried his best to think in unbelievable directions, trying to keep up with Alexei's ideas.

ideas.

"...Hong, you are actually very suitable for research work. Unfortunately, you are a little older and it is too late to add professional knowledge. This is indeed a genius idea and it is very likely to be realized. Wait, I want to make it

record!"

Alexey was actually stunned when he was asked. He held his pointed chin and looked at the sky, thinking desperately. He kicked a stone to bring his thoughts back. Then he stopped leaving and took out a small book to brush away.

"Do you think there is a possibility? Suppose a person is infected with a relatively special zombie virus. Before the brain is damaged by the virus, a substance that can partially block the replication of the virus is input. After the condition is cured, the remaining

Some kind of sequelae.

He is still a human, his appearance and body have not changed, he can talk and laugh, he is exactly the same as a normal person. It is just that his brain has some kind of mutation, and it has functions similar to those of living zombies, and can communicate with zombies? "

Seeing that the topic was about to turn to the grand blueprint of how to use zombie viruses to benefit mankind, Hong Tao didn't bother to beat around the bush and directly stated Zhuma's symptoms in the form of hypotheses.

"...That shouldn't be called blocking, but evolution! The zombie virus is actually a variant of the zombie virus. It is a sudden change that occurs when the virus encounters changes in the environment. If the zombie virus also encounters such an environment,

, there should be a chance of mutation, which is no problem in theory!"

If these words were asked to Zhou Yuan, Lin Na, Randy, Gao Tianyi and others, they would immediately doubt Hong Tao's intentions. But Alexey would not. He always focused on the category of viruses and was not interested in other possibilities.

There was no response. After careful consideration, I basically confirmed Hong Tao's hypothesis.

"That's it for today. I'll go down there and find a place to stay overnight. Be careful!" After asking this question, Hong Tao basically found the answer. Even if he explained the detailed theory, he might not be able to understand it.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, walking at night in the mountainous area was obviously not something Alexei could do. There was a large protruding rock on the mountainside in front of him. If the space below was not too small, it would be a good camping spot with a little tidying up.
