Chapter 511 Virus
Zhang Tuohai looked around, trying to analyze what type of world this was.
It might be the doomsday after a disaster, but the surrounding houses are still apparently intact, without the dilapidated feeling of having no one cleaned them for years.
Zhang Tuohai could also see the cleanly trimmed lawns of several houses on the roadside through the white fences.
Judging from the grass, it is obvious that someone has taken care of it recently.
However, if it is a peaceful world, as far as Zhang Tuohai can see, there are few intact windows in most houses.
There were also several houses that showed obvious signs of being burned, and some of them were even now emitting wisps of blue smoke.
There were several cars parked on the street that had crashed into each other, and there were some bloodstains on the cars.
Clearly, all this indicates that something bad has happened here, and no one has come to clean up the mess.
Zhang Tuohai thought about it, took out a hand-thrown drone, and prepared to investigate the surrounding situation.
However, just as his hand touched the car door, suddenly, a reminder popped up from the reminder system.
[There are a lot of viruses left in the air outside. If you go out without protection, the probability of being infected with the Alpha virus is 75%, the probability of being infected with the Beta virus is 55%, and the probability of being infected with the Gamma virus is 35%. ]
[The virus is described as follows...]
When Zhang Tuohai finished reading the long description of the virus, he couldn't help but gasp.
These three viruses are actually the same virus.
Alpha is the original strain and is highly contagious. Infection will cause symptoms such as fever and colds. There is a certain probability that it will heal on its own, and most of the time taking medicine will improve the condition, but there is a 10% chance that it will cause a person to mutate. If it cannot be cured in time, the probability of this mutation will continue to increase until 100%.
Mutated people will become extremely manic, bloodthirsty and violent, unable to control their emotions and behaviors, and will uncontrollably attack other people of the same species who are not infected with the virus, or even animals.
The body fluids of these mutants also contain a large amount of viruses. If bitten or the body fluids splash into the respiratory tract, there is a 90% chance of being infected with the virus.
Beta virus and gamma virus are both variants of Alpha virus. The probability of Beta virus causing mutation in patients has increased significantly, up to 55%, which is more than five times the rate.
Moreover, after being infected with the beta virus, there is a certain risk of death, and the probability of death within one to three days is about 15%.
As for the last gamma virus, it is even more terrifying, causing the patient to mutate at a rate of up to 75% and the probability of death is as high as 35%.
What's worse is that after being infected with the gamma virus, there is a certain chance that the human body will mutate, causing the person to grow some strange organs and turn into those strange monsters.
The most troublesome thing is that after being infected by the gamma virus, the mutated people will have a certain self-control ability and can control the bloodthirsty desire in their bodies to a certain extent.
However, they still cannot control their instinct to spread the virus.
To put it simply, patients infected with the gamma virus are no longer bloodthirsty and brainless lunatics, but intelligent virus spreaders who can make plans.
After seeing this long description, Zhang Tuohai couldn't help but feel a headache.
Judging from the virus description alone, this Alpha virus is similar to the zombie virus.
However, this Alpha virus is obviously more dangerous. Patients infected with the Gamma variant will gain intelligence and mutate.
They are intelligent and much more difficult to deal with than those zombies that just rush forward mindlessly.
Moreover, unlike the zombie world, the air in this world contains a large number of viruses.
You don't need a virus carrier to find you. As long as you breathe the air once without protection, you will be judged.
Moreover, it is a triple judgment, once for Alpha, Beta and Gamma respectively.
I'm afraid only the European emperor will not fall into this trap.
The best outcome is infection with the Alpha virus without any mutation.
This requires you to find a specific medicine to treat the virus, otherwise, if it is not cured for a long time, you will still turn into a bloodthirsty madman.
Of course, it’s not all bad news.
There are two pieces of good news.
The first good news is that these mutated virus carriers are still human in essence and do not have such strong vitality that they can only be killed by a headshot.
As long as you hit the vital point, you can kill them, but their vitality is a little stronger and they can last a minute or two longer.
The second good news is that some people will produce antibodies after breathing air containing the virus, and become immune to the virus in the air.
Of course, such people are one in a million, and you need to risk your life to try to come across such a person.
After reading the instructions for a while, Zhang Tuohai grasped two core issues.
That is , if you want to survive in this world, you must have at least one set of protective clothing that meets the standards, and also a filtering device.
The second is that we must find a specific medicine to treat this disease.
This thing is definitely one of the most valuable things in this world.
Whether you use it yourself or keep it to sell to others, the price will definitely be comparable to gold. No, it will be more precious than the accessories of a level 5 car.
Thinking of this, Zhang Tuohai's unscrupulous businessman nature was exposed again.
"We must take this opportunity to get some protective clothing that can resist the virus. It would be best if we could get some special medicines. At the very least, we should also search for some cold medicines and the like. Maybe they can be used."
"Oh, and I need to find a chance to get two detectors that can automatically monitor the toxin content in the air, as well as the radiation content. This way, I can monitor the air conditions outside the car in real time."
Zhang Tuohai was thinking about the plan in his mind.
Afterwards, he obediently turned on the air purifier and purification statue in the car, put on the exoskeleton, opened the rear door of the multi-purpose armored vehicle and walked out.
Zhang Tuohai was holding a newly made hand-thrown drone in his hand and was about to launch it . At this moment, bursts of engine roars suddenly came from the distance.
Zhang Tuohai looked in the direction where the sound came from and was surprised to find that several black Harley motorcycles were driving towards the other end of the town.
The muffler on the exhaust pipe had been removed, and it emitted a deafening buzzing sound.
There were a few hippies sitting in the car, holding baseball bats and chains in their hands, and whizzing on the road.
However, what was rather disappointing was that amidst the whistling sound there were occasional coughing sounds.
Zhang Tuohai could even see two people wiping their noses with their sleeves from time to time.
The image instantly became down-to-earth.
"Are there still people in this world who don't know how to die?" Zhang Tuohai's eyes lit up when he saw those hippies.
He was just worried about having no way to understand the world view, and then it came right to him.
Zhang Tuohai looked at his body and tried his best to put away all the weapons, especially the eight mechanical tentacles, and hid them all behind his back.
We finally got a few idiots here, we can’t scare them away.
