"How can this be?"
After hearing what Sumire Muroto said, Tendōgi Sarada exclaimed.
"Why is it impossible? Gastroenterovirus is originally a genetic disease. Since it is a disease, it is possible to rely on medical means to affect it. You know the inhibitory drug used for Xiao Yanzhu, which is also to control the gastroenterovirus in her body. The things I’m doing now are medicines in the same direction as what I’m doing now.”
Sumire Muroto looked at the glass cover in front of her carefully, with her hands in her gloves, but she was preparing some kind of reagent solution in the sterile environment inside the glass cover.
The speed was very fast. After the mixture was prepared, it was dropped on a piece of purple meat that came from Scorpio, and something happened.
The pieces of meat shrank rapidly and became dehydrated, while the purple blood flowing out was changing color, and part of it even turned into a pink color, which is similar to that of steak, but is the part of myoglobin.
"Reducing agents are similar to drugs used to treat gastroenterovirus. In fact, during the Great Catastrophe Era, not long after the disaster occurred, government medical institutions conducted some research experiments.
Corresponding drugs have even been developed, but unfortunately the stress response produced by that drug is too great. Although the gastroenterovirus in the body of those who are injected will be killed, their lives will also be lost.
Afterwards, the Cataclysm occurred, and human defense lines were breached one by one by the violent gasterozoans. Most of the research resources were diverted to research on biochemical weapons of gastrea, and the research project on this medical agent was temporarily suspended. Slow down until now. "
After sterilization, she put another experimental material into the glass cover again, and Sumire Muroto continued: "But this is not so much a reducing agent, but rather an inhibitory drug developed for gastrula. That guy... It requires me to develop a drug that can stabilize the virus-ridden body of the archenteron without killing it."
"Wouldn't a large dose of anesthetics work?"
Tendo Mugen asked, although the recovery power of gastrula is amazing, anesthetics are also useful.
"Stability alone is not enough, you also need to maintain a clear consciousness. Did you know that the gastrula that have evolved to the fifth stage actually possess some of the rational consciousness of original humans..."
Sumire Muroto, who entered the research mode, was fully focused, but she kept mumbling some seemingly messy words.
"A little anesthesia can calm the irritable emotions of gastrula at that level, but if you want to stimulate the rational consciousness of humans that may exist in their bodies, reducing agents are necessary..."
“There is indeed a soul in the life of this world, and the soul is the spiritual condensation of intelligent life. As for the spirit, it is often affected by the form of the body.
Therefore, if the body of the gastrula can be restored and transformed back into the human form it originally hosted, it means that not all gasterozoans will be enemies of humans, and part of them will be able to transform into another form of human beings.
No, no, wrong again, maybe the formula of the neutralizing reagent should be changed..."
"Sister Sumire?"
Tendo Kisara wanted to pry something out of Sumire Muroto's mouth, but suddenly he felt a chill on his back, as if he was being targeted by something dangerous.
The girl turned her head, and then she saw a black armored face with a mask emerging from the shadow of Sumire Muroto. The dark red eyes under the mask were staring at her.
It seemed that if she dared to disturb Sumire Muroto's work, something bad might happen to her. For example, the thing in the shadow might jump out and beat her to death.
"..."
Tendo Mu Sarada, who was very sensitive to danger, kept silent, but under the gaze of the dark red eyes in the shadow of Sumire Muroto, he silently exited this place.
After the door closed, the invisible pressure on my body was finally relieved, but I felt like I had escaped from a tiger's mouth and had peace of mind.
"If a capable person joins the organization that fights against the persecution of the Cursed Children, do they have to hide something like that just now in the shadows?"
Tendo Mugen swallowed his saliva, took a deep breath to calm down, and decided to go to District 39 to join the organization with thick thighs.
If this is the price she needs to bear to take advantage of the opportunity to take revenge, then she will bear it.
Tendo Kisara set out for the outer city. It was different from the previous boat ride. This time she walked on the road, but the broken bridge was repaired at some point.
An abandoned building appeared in the middle of the river. The roof on the top floor became a plane connecting the two ends of the broken bridge. It was simply a miraculous repair method.
Tendo Musara could completely imagine how the being who dragged away the huge Scorpio caused this ruined building to appear in the river.
When she arrived near the orphanage in District 39, she found that the place had also changed drastically. Large areas of ruins around it had been cleared away and replaced by low-rise bungalows. The workmanship could be felt at a glance. Rough, but you can also feel their solidity.
"bright?"
Tendo Mugena was stunned. In this situation where the whole city was experiencing a power shortage, this place was actually brightly lit, and the aroma of vegetables wafting from inside made her feel like she hadn't eaten dinner yet. Gurgling loudly.
"Who is the big sister?"
A childish voice suddenly sounded behind her.
"Is he a bad guy with evil ideas about the camp?"
Hiroko Kohina appeared behind the girl, but blocked Tendou Kisara's escape.
"Dad told me that Lord SD is a greater being than him, and he asked me to obey him obediently, Hina-chan.
The instructions Mr. SD gave to Kohina was to protect the camp here and the friends here who are also children of the curse. "
The little loli in Gothic clothes came closer step by step.
“So far, Obinai has dealt with a dozen bad guys who came close to here and had evil intentions in their hearts.
However, those bad guys were too weak. I just scratched their necks lightly with the knife, and their heads fell off like rubber balls. It was really boring. "
Hiroko Hina took out her two swords from under her skirt.
"Sister, I can feel that you are different from those guys.
So, can I ask you to satisfy my desire to fight as much as possible before you are killed by me? "
Kohina asked innocently, but she had already swooped over and entered combat mode.
"Wait a minute, I'm not an intruder, let alone a bad person!"
The blade stopped at Tendou Kisara's somewhat tense calf.
"You're not a bad person, so what are you here for?"
Hiruko Kohina asked a little unhappily.
It wasn't that she wanted to stop, it was just the dark shadow of evil thoughts lingering around her that stopped her from doing so.
"I heard that this is an organization that protects cursed children, so I came to sign up to be a member of the protector group."
Tendo Kisara replied.
"If you're here to join the club, take her to see Administrator Matsuzaki."
The mask appeared on the little girl's shoulder, and then a dull voice sounded from the mask.
"Don't do bad things, and you don't want to get spanked, right?"
After saying what he just said, the evil clone added another sentence.
"I...I know."
Hiroko Hina tightened her buttocks and put away her swords reluctantly.
She took Tendou Kisara into the camp, and met several girls on the way who were also protecting the camp.
. . . .
As the saying goes, where there is oppression, there is resistance.
Most of the girls who protected the camp were children who stood up and resisted.
They are the children of the curse bred by the malice of this world.
Their hands were all stained with blood, but fortunately, they were young and their views had not yet been finalized.
When they were discovered during the integration of the outer city, Wu Ke also incorporated them.
Wu Ke gave them the task of protecting the camp and their fellow cursed children, but he instilled in them a sense of right and wrong that was consistent with the justice of the Messenger of Justice.
And from the perspective of correcting their thinking and preventing these children from becoming bottomless murderers in the future, these arrangements are quite good.
. . . .
"What, little girl, you want to join us, and you do it voluntarily, without any coercion?"
Old Dean Matsuzaki had some old eyesight, and had to push the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose a few times before he looked at Tendo Kisara with some disbelief, who was brought here and told the purpose of his trip.
"Is there... anything wrong with this?"
Tendomu was even more puzzled.
From the information she investigated, this anti-persecution social organization also recruits people from outside.
And it is still expanding among the middle and lower class people with a strong momentum.
"No, there's nothing wrong with that. I'm just used to seeing people who are forced to join. I'm a little surprised to see you join us on your own initiative and to find someone who wants to join us..."
The old dean Matsuzaki said very honestly that since the orphanages and shelters in the outer city were integrated, this kind old dean was also joined by Wu Kela. He knew the situation of the initial expansion of this society, which was almost the same as that of the organization. There is not much difference between a cult and a pyramid scheme.
Tendo Kigeng: "..."
The information investigated actually contained some errors.
"Discrimination against children of the curse is prevalent in today's society. Our club is an organization that goes against the general trend, so you may have to suffer a lot if you join us. It is almost normal to receive a blank stare..."
Dean Matsuzaki paused for a moment, then continued: "I think you are a thoughtful and kind-hearted child, so I want to say a few more words to you. If you can't bear the hardship, it's better not to join our club."
Tendong Mu didn't even expect that the administrator here would say this, but he replied: "I can bear the hardship. More importantly, I want to help the children here."
Seeing the girl's persistence, old Dean Matsuzaki didn't say anything more and directly took out the roster to register Tendou Kisara.
“There are two types of members in our society, those who have money and those who have no money.
Those who have money can contribute money and efforts, and those who have no money can make money and contribute efforts.
Well, do you have money? "
"Yes, but not many."
"That's the members who make money and contribute. Here, this is the brochure for the members who make money and contribute."
Old Dean Matsuzaki handed over a manuscript. Tendo Kisara took it and listened to the introduction.
“Our club has two long-term tasks. One is to help the cursed children outside. Whenever we see children outside who are not living a good life, we try to help them as much as possible and persuade them to come and live with us.
The second is to develop club members. No matter what method is used, as long as it is not harmful to the law, then whether it is deception, abduction, coercion or inducement, as long as you can develop a new club member, you can get a certain bounty. "
"Ah, this..."
Tendo Kisara had already looked through the brochure in his hand. In addition to standardizing the daily behavior of club members, it also included various techniques and methods for developing cults and establishing pyramid schemes.
"Don't be nervous, we are not some strange social group, we are just using unreasonable methods to defeat the unreasonable reality of this society.
In the past, people angered the Children of the Curse, who were also victims, because of the gastrea. This was a humane thing, but it was not in line with normal principles.
In this kind of social situation, people are not very good at being reasonable and admitting past mistakes. Instead of telling the public useless truths, it is better to directly instill in them that persecution is wrong and persecution is something that needs to be opposed.
As long as we say these words more and attract more members into the society, when the phenomenon of human-to-human transmission occurs in society, then what we say is the truth, and we can change the current social environment of discrimination and persecution of cursed children..."
Although the method used by Wu Ke was a bit subtle, old Dean Matsuzaki still had to admit that it was very effective.
Those merchants who were forced to cooperate and have supply relationships with the current 39th District, after getting over the initial discomfort, almost everyone is laughing now. After all, they have money to make...
As for the attitude towards the cursed children, it can be seen that when the merchants deliver supplies, they occasionally bring some candies and toys as small gifts to the little girls here.
And this is just a microcosm of part of this society. After other members changed their behavior, in a subtle way, they gradually changed their original behavior of being too in line with the public trend, that is, discriminating against cursed children. idea.
[Given time, I am afraid that this society that keeps recruiting people into its ranks will be able to change the minds of people in the safe zone by brainwashing the public from bottom to top...]
Tendogi, who understood this, was even more frightened. Thinking of what Sumire Muroto said casually before, he couldn't help but suspect that Wu Ke might really be a gastrea that had evolved to a higher stage and restored human consciousness and even a human body.
The other party's purpose in taking Scorpio away and protecting the Tokyo safe zone was just to create an environment suitable for him to live in.
First, change people's views on Cursed Children, and then slowly change people's views on Gastrea...
Thinking about it this way, the logic actually made sense, and Tendou Mu took a deep breath.
But soon, she returned to normal.
[After all, I am here to take advantage of the situation. As long as the other party does not want to destroy all mankind, no matter whether the other party is a gastrea or something else, it has nothing to do with me...]
After looking at the manual and thinking for a while, Tendo Mugen asked Dean Matsuzaki next to him: "Excuse me, where is our leader?"
"busy?"
"I have better suggestions and ways to promote the concept of our society. Please recommend me to the boss of our society. In addition, I also know Dr. Sumire Muroto..."
