Sam b was angry and left. The things stolen by the militia group were really not worth mentioning, and Lao Bai was shameless and refused to have a good talk with him.

As for searching...how to search for salt? Check the grains to see if they come from your own place? Obviously unrealistic.

Sam B had no choice but to leave. You can't really make a big fuss over such a trivial matter. Back at the station, Sam B ordered additional sentries at night.

The lioness looked at Sam B's leaving back with some worry.

"Commander of the Corps, do you need to set up a sentry at night to prevent the other side from retaliating?"

"What are you afraid of?" Lao Bai returned to his normal state: "Barefoot people are not afraid of people wearing shoes. We don't have anything. What is he here to steal? Steal salt? Besides, this is Zhongbei. It's not something I can do. They don't dare to take things seriously. Make a big fuss, otherwise Donghuang will intervene." The lioness understood.

"The first battalion will rest for a while, and the second battalion will continue training. The slogans will become louder... By the way, how about the silent earplugs?"

"Very good. The silent earplugs from Yihui come with active noise reduction. After wearing them, they feel like a deaf person."

"That's okay." Lao Bai nodded: "Work in three shifts, practice day and night, and make sure you don't stop shouting slogans 24 hours a day. Isn't it easy to deal with these grandsons? I want to see what they can endure. Time." The lioness tried to hold back her laughter.

Maybe Sam B would not be so depressed when meeting any regiment leader, but he met Lao Bai.

... Due to the urban reconstruction of Cote City and the reconstruction of District H, all the silent decoration materials on the market have been stopped, and the silent earplugs are also temporarily out of stock.

The quartermaster in charge of procurement was confused. Not only that, the dumbbells were temporarily out of stock due to the relocation of the gym in Cote City... The quartermaster was not stupid, and he immediately understood that this was the militia group and Cote City collaborating to hinder it.

But how could such a small skill stump a qualified quartermaster? The quartermaster chose to shop online. But unfortunately, due to local economic controls, some materials cannot be shipped to Cote City for the time being... The quartermaster was furious and called Sam B to complain.

The answer given by Sam B is to buy what you can buy first. So the quartermaster took a cart of salt back to the station... Only then did Sam B realize that the old guy next door was not some bullshit redneck, but an old man.

The reason for pretending to be red-necked is simply a cover for poor communication. As the saying goes, a person who does not die in old age is a thief. This old thief deserves to die.

Sam B looked ugly. This old thief must be taught a lesson. So that night, six or seven strong men with bruised noses and swollen faces appeared at the Cote militia station.

According to the leader's recollection, the few of them only felt a gust of wind, and then their personnel was unknown... Sam B didn't know how powerful the lioness's physical skills were, and he didn't expect that the crouching tiger in a small Kurt militia group Hidden Dragon has an incredible configuration of five second-level superpowers and two third-level superpowers.

The Survey Corps could only endure this dumb loss. night. Pitch black. I can't see my fingers. The Survey Corps camp is heavily deployed.

The Cote militia group next door is still training. The slogans of "one, two, three, four" were so loud that the sentries who wanted to be lazy were cheered up.

Early the next morning, the second and third battalions of the Cote Militia Regiment were sleeping soundly, and the first battalion began morning exercises... After three days of this, the sentries on the night shift could no longer stand it.

As a result, the cooking pots of the Survey Corps disappeared overnight... At the same time, Cote City also launched a local protection policy for kitchen utensils... For a whole month and a half, the things lost by the Survey Corps ranged from daily necessities to medicines, from food to high-energy Compressed block.

Everything was lost except arms. There are no things that can be discussed on the table, but they all have an impact on life.

What's more important is that the government of Cote City doesn't know what style to use, and will not provide supplies to the Survey Corps even if it affects the local economy.

Sam b was furious. The abomination of the Cote Militia doesn't stop there. This group of villagers, equipped with silent earplugs, trains twenty-four hours a day, making everyone in the Survey Corps suffer from nervous breakdown.

Just when Sam B was about to break out and give the Cote militia a harsh lesson, Chelsea City finally called.

The mission of the Survey Corps has come to an end and they will return today. Sam B planned to take care of Lao Bai when he shook hands and said goodbye, but Lao Bai directly stretched out his robotic arm.

When boarding the spacecraft, Sam B swore that he would never set foot in Zhongbei again in his life. As a result, he had to break his oath after only two hours.

I heard that an armed team came out of nowhere and plundered the weapons ship that had taken off from the Yi Neng Hui. One-fifth of the weapons in the entire Survey Corps were robbed.

Sam B's vision went dark and he quickly turned back. However, after the Donghuang Corps heard about such a bad incident, they had already dispatched a large force to encircle and suppress the armed forces, promising to return all the arms of the Survey Corps within three months.

Sam B finally understood that the Cote militia can only be regarded as rogues, and Donghuang is the real rogue.

Thinking that he had worked hard for decades to save his family fortune, and suddenly had one-fifth of it taken away, and the superior ordered not to start an armed conflict, the dignified level three superpower user was so angry that he actually fell ill from anger... Xu Tiegong looked at the arms held by Lao Bai with a look of amazement.

Lao Bai gave Xu Tiegong a regimental salute and said with a smile: "Minister Xu, as I said before, it's half and half." In order to seize the arms and not give the Survey Corps a chance, Lao Bai spent a lot of time planning.

Everything from using Hex's plasma shield to remote AI capture networks. In the end, in exchange for half of the arms, Xu Tiegong was invited to be the spokesperson of the Donghuang Corps to show sincerity.

Xu Tiegong glanced at the many new models of exoskeleton individual armor and heavy fire weapons, and nodded repeatedly.

It is true that Donghuang did have the intention to test the militia group internally, but the methods used by Lao Bai were really despicable. He solved the problem without revealing the truth and at the same time made a huge blow.

Presumably this militia regiment will soon stand out among the city's corps. After dividing the spoils, Xu Tiegong returned to Levin City, and the militia did not immediately put heavy firepower into daily training.

Lao Bai selected two of each exoskeleton and other cutting-edge individual equipment and transported them back to Hex. Decrypted, dissected, and hopefully Hex won’t disappoint.

...I don't know whether it was due to overwork, but Lao Bai, who was as strong as an ox, fell ill four days after the Survey Corps left.

High fever persists, severe wheezing sound when breathing, and bloody sputum when coughing. At first, the lioness thought it was because Lao Bai was getting cold due to his old age and had complications.

But she soon realized something was wrong. The increasingly powerful militia members fell ill one after another, with the same symptoms as Lao Bai.

Even she herself had a cough. Stopping the transportation team coming and going from Kurt, Lioness directly asked the military doctors to disinfect and block all those who might be infected. Then she made an emergency call to the Donghuang Corps Biochemical Experiment Base to report that a plague might be spreading.

The Donghuang Corps Biochemical Experiment Base directly classified this matter as a Level 2 incident because there were many similar cases in Levin City.

Lao Bai himself was brought to Levin City for intensive treatment because of his important position and old age. Through Lao Bai's blood samples and secretion monitoring, the biochemical laboratory quickly found the cause of Lao Bai's disease.

A virus never seen before. Due to the specificity of the virus structure, Donghuang Biochemical Laboratory named it isopsilon virus.

Ipsilon is a single-stranded RNA structure virus. After repeated laboratory studies, it was found that this virus has a great possibility of mutation and can cause upper respiratory tract and lung lesions. Other symptoms are not yet known.

High fever is just the immune response of the body's immune system to viruses. Fortunately, Lao Bai was strong, otherwise the continuous high fever would have killed him.

Since they had never been exposed to a similar virus before, the doctors responsible for treating Lao Bai were helpless. They had no choice but to inject antibiotics and a variety of vitamins and minerals.

He had a high fever for four consecutive days. On the fifth day, Lao Bai's symptoms eased. But the weakness and muscle soreness caused by the continuous high fever pushed this stubborn old man to the hospital bed.

Because of her extremely strong physical condition, the lioness recovered on the third day after being confirmed to be infected, and has now fully taken over the affairs of the militia group.

In the mine, there were no loud slogans and no lively militia members. Most of the militia members were infected with isopsilon and were resting in bed. The remaining members wore protective clothing and were doing daily disinfection and transporting items in the camp.

The Ipsilon came too fast and violently, giving the militiamen no time to react. In just one week, more than 20 militiamen who were infected went from mild symptoms to symptoms similar to those of Lao Bai.

Loud gasping and incessant coughing can often be heard in the camp. On the eighth day of the spread of isopsilon, the first death occurred in the mine.

There was no time to grieve. The deceased was picked up by the Donghuang Biochemical Laboratory, and then they worked overtime to isolate the virus strain and conduct culture and research. Finally, on April Fool's Day, the original virus strain was isolated, and the complete structure of Ipsilon was obtained for the first time. Presented in front of everyone.

North Central Region. Levin City. The First Biochemical Laboratory of Donghuang Corps. A white-haired old man presented the original strain of Ipsilon in front of everyone in a 3D projection.

The old man wore a mask and protective goggles and cast an inquiring look at Xu Tiegong. Xu Tiegong nodded.

"Isopsilon is now very certain to be a man-made virus. The genetic module responsible for fission comes from the experimental module VII of the former Ross Ecological Research Group. Professor Luo and I compared the genome. The genetic module of isopsilon is similar to The VII experimental modules are exactly the same, with zero changes, and the probability of natural evolution is less than one-tenth to the sixty-fourth power." The old professor concluded: "So, isopsilon is a laboratory virus." As soon as this statement came out , the whole place was in an uproar.

Laboratory viruses are known as the top ten most likely to cause human extinction. The biological agent Omega in Ross' Year of Disaster originated from the release of laboratory viruses.

"Due to the single-stranded RNA structure of isophenil, the possibility of mutation is extremely high, so it is difficult to have specific drugs against this strain." The old professor sighed: "It is not difficult to see from Patient Zero Whitestone. This is a self-limiting disease. If a person with a weak constitution enters a critical phase after being infected with isopsilon, it will be almost a death sentence." Everyone's expression changed after hearing this, and everyone was in danger.

Xu Tiegong signaled the audience to be quiet, he had something to say. The old professor nodded.

"If Whitestone was Patient Zero, why didn't anything happen to me who was the first person to come into contact with Whitestone?"

"This requires further research." The old professor pushed up his protective goggles: "In addition to humans, we also found the same kind of virus on the weapons and equipment captured by the Corps. The densest place where the virus is found is on the irradiation spaceship. In an isolation cabin...it is now speculated that this is the source of the virus." Xu Tiegong frowned.

There was indeed an isolation cabin in the seized irradiation spacecraft, but there were no patients in the isolation cabin, and there were no suspicious-looking test tubes or anything like that.

Unless...Xu Tiegong stood up and left the venue. The old professor continued to talk about the specificity of Ipsilon and analyzed the solution.

...The third experimental base in Levin City. The experts who were once responsible for deciphering Chen Mo's genetic structure have all fallen ill. In just a few days, three people have passed away.

Xu Tiegong wore chemical protective clothing, came to the third experimental base, and stopped all experimental projects. A project called 'Deconstruction' was also halted.

Xu Tiegong looked at the body of Homo sapiens in the experimental cabin through the chemical-resistant glass. Yes, there is a Homo sapiens in the isolation compartment of the Eridium evacuation spacecraft.

When he was discovered, Si Junzhi had a big hole in his chest and was already dead. But researchers keenly discovered that this Homo sapiens corpse was different from ordinary Homo sapiens.

In terms of body proportions and facial structure, it is more human-like. Xu Tiegong keenly sensed that there might be some unknown secrets in this, so he handed the body of Homo sapiens to Levin City's third experimental base and started a secret project codenamed 'Deconstruction'.

It was also at the same time that Lao Bai fell ill and the lioness reported. So Xu Tiegong didn't think about it.

Now…

"Immediately summon the protection workers of the biochemical laboratory to investigate the third experimental base. Be sure to strangle the source of infection of Ipsilon."... The fever clinic in Cote City has been full every day recently.

The fever clinic at the No. 1 Hospital in Shangcheng District has been scheduled for two months. As a young doctor who had just arrived as an intern at the First Hospital, Pan Fuqiu was really not used to such high-intensity work.

Arrangements were made for a patient with endopleural inflammation caused by fever to be hospitalized. After the shift was completed, Pan Fuqiu left the outpatient clinic, changed into casual clothes, held a cigarette in his mouth, and took a long drag.

His parents instilled in him that only teachers, doctors and lawyers were promising professions from an early age. But just after graduation and starting an internship, reality is far from imagination.

It is inevitable that there will be some sense of gap. Pan Fuqiu's phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, Pan Fuqiu finally smiled after a tiring day.

"Miss me, Dabao?"

"Are you off work?"

"I just got off work and am walking back."

"Okay, whatever you want to eat tonight, I'll make it now."

"Don't do it." Pan Fuqiu said with a smile: "I'm tired after a long day and don't want to wash the dishes. Let's go out to eat today."

"You are so lazy, okay, what do you want to eat?"

"That BBQ restaurant you went to last weekend? I heard someone said they have a new one."

"Then I'll put on my makeup now. Call me downstairs."

"Okay...the director's phone number, I won't tell you anymore."

"Bye~see you later."

"See you soon." Pan Fuqiu hung up the phone to his girlfriend and answered the director's series of life-threatening calls.

"What's wrong, Director?"

"Xiao Pan, where are you now?" Pan Fuqiu looked at the time and thought.

"almost home."

"Go back to work, now."

"Ah... is there something urgent?" Pan Fuqiu hesitated for a long time: "I made an appointment with my girlfriend to have dinner..."

"Don't think about eating. All people in the fever clinic must go back to their units. The director gave the death order." Pan Fuqiu was stunned.

"But..." the voice on the other end of the phone was low.

"Something serious has happened."
