The top of Blood Mountain.

The beast king in a white robe stared at the foot of the mountain, and the corners of his mouth gradually turned up into a faint smile.

No unexpected results.

These old things have been corrupted for too long.

They hold the relics of the Prosperity Era and are immersed in the dreams weaved by the relics of the old civilization, but they forget that this is not a pre-war period of peaceful singing and dancing, but a wasteland where hair grows and drinks blood.

As long as they completely abandon their bottom line and illusions, and give up everything that is disposable, even if they face the encirclement and suppression of the decadent old civilization, the young people will still be able to fight.

The Alliance is a problem, but that's all.

They have not given up enough, and they are not brave enough.

At least not as good as my non-human self.

At this moment, a low voice came into his sea of ​​consciousness, like a hum coming from the depths of the earth.

"The men retreated."

The Beast King nodded and responded in a very soft voice.

"I saw it."

"They took away the information in the cave. I'm afraid my existence will be exposed." There was a trace of hesitation in the dull voice, as if he was worried about something.

The Beast King raised his eyebrows slightly with interest.

"Are you scared?"

"No," the voice paused for a while, then said slowly, "but I smell a nasty smell."

"'That guy' is getting closer and closer to us."

…

At 12 noon, Task Force Alpha issued a retreat order and withdrew the two squadrons fighting on Blood Mountain.

The college invested 300 individual drones successively, but in the end only 100 were withdrawn. The 200 Alpha Task Force members suffered even more heavy losses, and only less than half of them were withdrawn.

And even those who were withdrawn were mostly severely infected.

These wounded were placed in the Second Frontline Hospital and were observed and treated by the medical team from the Alliance Biological Research Institute and the Science and Technology Committee.

The composition of toxic substances and how they break through the individual three-defense system of Task Force Alpha also require further investigation and research.

Although both the high command of the coalition forces and the armies outside the academy had already anticipated the outcome of this initial offensive, the academy's performance in actual combat still exceeded everyone's expectations.

how to say?

It feels like the thunder is loud and the rain is small.

"It seems that the guys in the north are just like that."

General Babita from the Empire looked at the Alpha Task Force withdrew from the front line with a hint of contempt in his eyes.

He suddenly felt that he was okay again.

Not long ago, Duke Galawa, who was stationed in Dawn City, expressed dissatisfaction with their inaction on the front line and urged them to focus more on the battlefield.

Maybe they should do something to save some face for His Majesty the Emperor.

It was not just the imperial officers who were shocked by the academy's performance, but also General Liam, who had just changed his view of those guys.

Unexpectedly, these guys performed a flashy operation, but in the end they were beaten into disgrace by the opponent and fled from the front line.

"...Maybe I should reconsider my evaluation of these guys."

Liam, who was sitting in the bridge of the airship with his legs crossed on his knees, had an intriguing expression on his face, tore open an ice cream cone and stuffed it into his mouth.

Of course, another possibility is not ruled out.

These slugs in the swamp are deliberately showing weakness to show that they are harmless to humans and animals so that they can find opportunities to fish in troubled waters.

After all, no one except themselves knows what their true intentions are.

In fact, Liam thought too much about deliberately showing weakness.

Even the academy itself was furious with such a result.

For this battle, they made full and careful preparations, but they lost to a group of primitive people who fought with stones and sticks——

At least that's how it seems to Yang Kai.

"How did you do it? Even with the strongest equipment, you couldn't defeat a group of mutants?"

After a rare scientific research ship landed at the Weifu military base, Yang Kai found the leader of the Alpha Mobile Task Force and said in a scolding voice.

"Sorry to disappoint you."

The guy named Alpha Zero lowered his head and looked like he was seriously reflecting on his mistakes. However, Yang Kai could not sense any sincerity in reflecting on his mistakes.

Shaking his head, Yang Kai knew that scolding him would be in vain, so in the end he did not embarrass this guy anymore and waved his hand to send him away.

After reprimanding the commander who formulated the combat plan, he immediately found Chu Guang, who was inspecting the Second Hospital of Weifu Military Base, and briefly described the situation encountered by Task Force Alpha during the operation.

"...There is something wrong with the mutants on Shifeng Mountain. They have shown characteristics in evolution that we have never seen before. Not only that, but based on the extraction of on-site samples by frontline troops, we suspect that there are hidden things hidden deep in the Blood Mountain.

A mother's nest."

After listening to Yang Kai's statement, Chu Guang nodded.

"We thought so too."

Yang Kai was stunned when he heard this and stared at him suspiciously.

"How did you know?"

Chu Guang: "Guess."

Yang Kai: "..."

Looking at Yang Kai who was speechless, Chu Guang coughed lightly and continued.

"...These trivial issues are not the focus. The key is how we deal with this problem now."

Yang Kai's expression gradually became serious.

"What's your opinion?"

"My opinion is...to wait for the expert opinion."

As he said that, Chu Guang turned his attention to the isolation ward with a closed door.

The members of Task Force Alpha who had withdrawn from the front line were all lying there. Some of them had woken up, but many of them had not yet woken up. Hea was currently inside to understand the situation, and I believe the results would come after a while.

At the same time, Hea, who was standing in the ward, had a solemn expression on his face, staring at the tablet in his hand.

This is an organic protein molecule that she has never seen before. It is like a virus, but smaller than known viruses, even less than 7 nanometers, and the average individual size is about 5 nanometers.

And that's not even the most surprising thing.

The most incredible thing is that in addition to the RNA that stores genetic information, there is also a highly folded knob-like macromolecular structure inside this "unnamed substance", which can store mechanical potential energy like clockwork and slowly rotate it.

It is released to the tail.

At the tail of the substance, there are at least four protein chains with special shapes. Like the flagella of protozoa, they can make simple mechanical movements driven by the "clockwork", thus pushing the substance slowly from high concentration to high concentration.

Areas spread to low concentration areas!

To make an inappropriate but vivid metaphor, this thing is just like a nano-scale missile! It usually resides in spores, and one spore can carry 3 to 7 of these things. After the spores rupture actively or passively, they

will release it.

The internal RNA is its "warhead", the folded macromolecule protein is its engine, and the tail protein chain is its "propeller".

In addition to adhering to particles and drifting, it can also complete the "migration" from particle A to particle B through active means.

This characteristic is most likely the most direct reason why the substance can break through the gas masks of Task Force Alpha.

After all, as we all know, gas masks containing activated carbon and other substances mainly use the electrostatic adsorption effect to filter "tiny particles carrying harmful substances", so it does not mean that the smaller the particles, the more difficult it is to filter them.

According to experimental statistics, 0.3 micron particles are the most difficult to filter, so "filtration efficiency for 0.3 micron particles" is often used as a measure of filtration effect. For example, N95 means "filtration efficiency for 0.3 micron particles."

The efficiency reaches more than 95%."

Although the "diameter of 5nm" itself is not enough for the substance to penetrate the gas mask, it would be bad if it is added that "it can rely on endogenous power to complete free migration".

According to clinical experiments, these substances leave a channel of debris between the pores of the gas mask.

They seem to be able to calculate the shortest path from entrance to exit, like slime molds searching for food in a petri dish.

But the strange thing is that although this thing is very similar to a virus in shape, it is completely different from most viruses in terms of its offensive strategy against the host.

After a general virus injects nucleic acid into a host cell, it usually uses the host cell's materials to first synthesize the replicase and some inhibitory proteins necessary for its own replication, and then synthesizes the nucleic acid and structural proteins of the progeny virus. The final result is usually that the host's body is

The cells are completely drained, and then a group of disciples and disciples go to harm the next target.

However, these special substances write their own genetic material into the genetic material of the host cell through a series of operations, just like the HIV virus.
To be continued...
