"Expansion forceps."
"No. 2 scalpel."
"Be careful, this worm ’s body fluid is very corrosive."
"Take it out, give me the storage box."
"This thing really looks strange."
In a narrow temporary dissection room, the medical director of "Aurora Legion" Belford is personally examining a dead radiation cockroach. On the simple operating table, a complete giant worm was unloaded in eight pieces, and some of the tissues believed to have healing effects were taken out specially and stored separately.
After completing the dissection, Belford also ordered his assistant to carefully clean up all parts of the insects to avoid possible infections or accidents. After all, cockroaches have always been thought to carry a lot of harmful bacteria. Who knows what will happen after radiation mutation?
While Belford walked out of the dissection room, he took off his mask and said to the Zhou Qingfeng who was guarding outside: "Your excellency, these variants lifeforms are of great research value, but I am not an expert in insects and mutations. As for whether they are It really has the effect that the locals say, which requires a lot of experiments.
As for the other two ‘Mutant’ bodies, they are also materials that can arouse great research interest from professionals. But the equipment and conditions here are not sufficient, and they can only be transported back to Havana for follow-up research. Maybe we can find out their weaknesses. "
Belford came on a transport plane and brought a special lifeforms medical team. They have been here for two days, inspecting the survival status of the mutant lifeforms in North American continent, and helping Zhou Qingfeng to come up with a solution to the current problem.
However, for the so-called medical research, Zhou Qingfeng does n’t care much. He just ordered: "All the mutated lifeforms are all transported by the transport aircraft from this time. I do n’t need you to do any large-scale research, I just need you to do it. One thing. "
As he said, Zhou Qingfeng rolled up his sleeves, "I drew a few hundred milliliters of my blood and injected it into some prisoners, and observed their condition within a week. If they were strengthened and weakened, they would radiate the glands of cockroaches. Give them body or meat pieces to see the effect. "
Belford was suddenly confused, and he couldn't figure out the reason for this. And Zhou Qingfeng Shen Sheng said: "I hope this is a secret experiment project, all the experimental results are directly handed over to me and Lena Fox."
"Lord Commander, can you tell me the purpose of doing this? I think I need a clear experimental goal." Belford asked embarrassedly.
"The residents here say that the radiation gland of cockroaches can treat any disease or any injuries. I think this is too exaggerated, but despite my doubts, I still want to try it." The purpose of Zhou Qingfeng is simple. He just wanted to find more ways for himself.
Although I still do n’t understand it, Belford has some speculation in my mind. Faced with the command directly issued by the regimental commander, he nodded and agreed. After drawing blood, he hurried away and led the team away.
As the three C-130 transport planes flew into the air again, the people in the entire stronghold were ashamed. Katrina asked Zhou Qingfeng: "Do you really believe that the mutated cockroaches are special drugs that can save your life?"
"Try it, there is no harm." Zhou Qingfeng is in charge of ‘Aurora Legion’, and the entire legion is equal to his private property. "The residents of the stronghold said that the research institute of the Brotherhood of Iron and Steel is using radiation cockroaches to make something called a" treatment needle ". It is said that some minor injuries can heal quickly and severe injuries can be greatly relieved. I am very interested in this."
"How is this possible?" Katrina shook his head slightly, and women were naturally resentful of cockroaches, not to mention giant cockroaches. She did n’t give any hope for the so-called ‘magic effect of radiation cockroaches’, but she did n’t want to crack down on Zhou Qingfeng, which was not directly denied.
For many people in the stronghold, those three transport planes are simply the only chance to get to the Garden of Eden. Because there are more than one hundred people in the stronghold who are considered to be more valuable to leave by plane. They leave the sea of suffering and no longer have to endure suffering.
For the action team, the three transport planes took away some of the wounded and cumbersome, and brought a lot of equipment they needed. The light fire assault vehicle is considered to be suitable for use in complex terrain, which has actually been verified when attacking Mérida.
This time, if there was not an assault gun equipped with heavy artillery and explosive reaction armor, in the face of the turbulent insect tide and the terrible ‘Mutant’, it ’s hard to tell who will die.
For this situation, Zhou Qingfeng decisively asked Havana to get him armored combat vehicles again. So three lightly armored ‘Panhard’ and a BTR-60 with heavy guns were transported.
In addition, the elite soldiers under Zhou Qingfeng have also been supplemented. The number has been increased to more than fifty people. Once again, they are full and ready to fight. This number of combat troops has reached the limit of ‘Aurora Legion’ long-range deployment. With additional manpower, logistics supplies can no longer keep up.
After gaining a firm foothold, Zhou Qingfeng will naturally begin to search the city of Baltimore. However, according to the photos taken by the aerial reconnaissance, he still has a problem-the road to Baltimore is full of various scrapped vehicles, and the closer to the city, the more.
Without a lot of manpower and time, it is impossible to clear a passable road. What Zhou Qingfeng lacks is manpower and time. Since there is no GPS and no electronic navigation now, he has to find a guide to re-plan a route that allows armored vehicles to move forward outside the existing road.
"Thank goodness, our Maryland is not a hilly area, but a plain, which makes our detour plan feasible. But what will happen on the road is unknown. I hope it is not in groups. Hostile lifeforms. "
Zhou Qingfeng has a detailed map of Baltimore's surroundings, but catastrophes have been happening for almost a year now, who knows if the map is still useful? He ordered people to find guides in the stronghold who were familiar with the surrounding environment. A total of four were found.
"Don't be nervous, everyone. I just hope you can help me find a suitable route to Baltimore." Zhou Qingfeng personally received the four selected guides. When his request was made, three The male guide immediately started to come up with ideas.
More than forty kilometers of roads. After discussing the whole afternoon, there were about three roads selected. But there is a problem with all three paths-no one has ever traveled, just blindly according to past experience.
"Hey, ma'am, what's your name?" Zhou Qingfeng dropped the map-marking pencil on the table, pinched his swollen head, and looked at the only woman in the four guides.
"My name is Niya. I was originally a student of the John. Hopkins University Business School." The woman said weakly, and she was careful to see Zhou Qingfeng.
"Oh, I heard about you. You should have boarded a plane to Havana. I'm sorry to leave you here. Do you have any comments on our course of action?" Zhou Qingfeng asked.
Niya looked at Zhou Qingfeng, and then at the map, and finally walked to the table. He drew an arc on one of the routes and pursed his lips and said, "I suggest you go around. "
"Why?"
"You better go to this place in Granite first."
"Why?"
"Because there is a refuge, I might be able to find someone who can help us."
"Shelter?" (To be continued.)
