Chapter 720 Too Delayed
As the work of the joint research team started, all kinds of good news began to emerge one after another, as if the related vaccine was about to be successfully researched.

But no matter how much good news there is, it cannot stop the actual spread of the virus.

Now I am embarrassed to go out without wearing a gas mask. No, it’s not that I’m embarrassed to go out, but I don’t go out at all. This has caused many stores selling anti-virus equipment to sell out of stock.

And people don't talk face-to-face when chatting, to prevent conventional droplet infection, either directly hold the mobile phone to type and chat, or talk at a distance of two meters.

Or even stand together and start a video chat facing different directions.

Although it looks a bit strange, it is safe.

But no matter how carefully people guard against these things, they cannot resist the power of nature.

Monsoons, ocean currents, water vapor cycle and other natural systems of nature can bring viruses to any place in the world. Although the carrying conditions are relatively harsh, some viruses can be brought to other places more or less.

There is never a shortage of Ou Huang... er, Ou Du in this world.

Not to mention that humans don't know enough about the "bloodbath" virus now, and there are still loopholes in its defense and killing. Therefore, although many countries have reduced or even banned many transportation applications from the United States, in this era , no country is isolated.

Although many people are afraid of danger, they have to run around the world for various reasons, and the same is true for some countries. If some cooperation is interrupted, it will not work, so there will still be many people or people every day. Things go to other places in different ways.

Because of this, the virus quickly spread in the United States, and some countries around the United States also soon had the first confirmed cases, and then more and more.

Fortunately, the country of the United States and its continent are somewhat isolated, surrounded by vast and boundless oceans, and the extreme freezing environment in the north provides some cover for countries far away from the continent where the country of the United States is located. For the time being, the virus has not spread there.

But according to this posture, it will be a matter of time before the "bloodbath" virus spreads all over the world.

But where there are bad things, there are good things...well, it's good things.

That is, as time changes, the death of people infected with the "bloodbath" virus is not so fast, that is, the time from the initial infection to the final death has been greatly lengthened, from less than an hour at the beginning to several hours. day time.

And this "a few days" is only a few days because of this incident. I don't know how many days I can live in the future. I only know that the condition of the infected person is stable. Although the situation is still gradually deteriorating, but It shouldn't be dead in the short term.

Maybe it can persist until the day when the joint research team overcomes the "bloodbath" virus.

It's a pity that the first batch of infected people have all died. The virus they were infected with was too aggressive, and they basically died within a few days.

Those who can persist for a few more days, it is because the virus itself has changed, a mechanism that does not know whether it is "mutation", "degeneration" or "evolution", which makes the virus slowly become like this.

I don't know whether this change is good or bad. Some people say that it will gradually become a virus like a cold. Although it is easy to be infected and exists all the time, the lethal effect will gradually disappear.

However, some people say that it is evolving. It used to be too intense. Although it has great lethality, it is also easy to be targeted. Now it gradually has a longer incubation time, and even the damage is slowly accepted by the human body, and it is no longer violently repelled. Think Making drugs against it is even harder.

Of course, this is not what those professionals said. They are all busy researching the virus, but they don’t have time to come here to talk about it. Moreover, this kind of thing is already very stimulating to the nerves of the public, so there is no need to add more oil and vinegar to it.

Such things are people's own guesses. In order to make myself feel at ease and try to convince myself, I will make up and guess various situations.

"Fortunately, we are separated by the Pacific Ocean from the United States. We have not had a single case yet, but I am still very nervous. I heard that even Hawaii has infected people."

"Well, the one in Hawaii was just discovered today. At the beginning, he found that he had a little cough. After going to the hospital, the doctor hospitalized him for insurance. Various treatments were used, but it was still useless for his cough. I didn't expect I started coughing up blood this morning."

"Although it hasn't been passed on to us yet, I'm good at it."

"We already have a lot of infected people here. Who made Canada the closest to the United States? I have been staying at home for several days."

"Have you read the latest news? There is a new situation in Los Angeles, have you seen the blood-like smoke? This is not something terrible happening again? I feel my heart I can't take it anymore."

"Didn't the official explain it? It's just a mist formed by coincidence. The most terrifying thing is probably that this mist contains blood virus components. After all, many people died there."

"The main reason is that I don't quite believe the official explanation now, so I doubt this..."

"There's nothing you can do if you don't believe it now. There is no evidence to expose them. Now the most daring "truth revealers" dare not get close to take a look. If it fails, it will die. Now everyone wants to hide as far away as possible."

"I don't care if it's a new scary incident. I just think that the Arclight Group's power armor is really awesome. If I want one of that armor, I dare to go anywhere!"

"Yeah, I didn't really believe it when I arrived with the aid supplies. I don't know what the Arc Light Group is doing with this thing. I didn't expect it to be so useful. It can directly enter the blood mist that contains a high concentration of toxins." .”

"Power armor is originally designed to allow humans to move and work in high-risk areas. In the final analysis, it is actually a piece of protective equipment equipped with autonomous power. It can carry electromagnetic guns to fight wars, and hold water spray guns to extinguish fires. It is suitable for various types of work. .”

"It's true, when you see power armor, you think of war first. It's because you have watched too many movies. In fact, it has many uses..."

And just as the outside world was turmoil and the joint research team was speeding up the research process, Dong Chen, who had spent a few days recalculating all the data, realized that something was related to an important layout of him.

"Wait, this... people are afraid to go out, what about my "Future Earth" game? Although you can play it indoors in the early stage, you will definitely have to go out in the later stage."

"And its main selling point is people's sociability. If everyone can't go out, then it's a dick!"

"This virus is too late!"

Seeing that Dong Chen had just washed his face with cold water, he suddenly realized that he didn't even wipe his face properly, so he just wiped it with a towel indiscriminately, and then reminded him on the side, "Sir, the arc light creature The research progress over there is very fast, and it should be possible to complete the research and development of therapeutic drugs and vaccines before the game is released."

"And according to your itinerary for today, you are going to inspect there today, and you will know the details when you ask."

PS: There are two updates,
