"I found out that since this year, abnormal phenomena have indeed appeared in the Northwest. One is the increase in extreme climate phenomena, and the other is the super-level changes in mutants."

He Lang was standing in his living room talking, and next to him was the only light source in the darkness—the image projected on the white wall.

Song Lin sat on the opposite side of the white projection wall, and said: "Even when I came here, I heard that there are more and more extreme weather every year. So put aside the climate in advance, and talk about mutants. Case."

"The abnormal phenomenon of mutants, on the one hand, is more manic and aggressive, and on the other hand, the number has increased sharply."

Now the screen next to He Lang shows a linear graph. Even if you don't look closely, you can understand what the rapidly rising red line represents.

"The Northwest didn't pay much attention to it, because they thought it was the habit of animals in spring, and the estrus period was irritable, which led to a short-term increase in the number. This is all explainable." He Lang continued, "But compared with the national data, It’s not hard to see that…”

The man pressed the presenter, and a blue line appeared on the chart.It is also showing an upward trend, but it is basically below the red line, and the climbing slope is much slower than the red line.

It can be said that the further behind the x-axis, the further the distance between the red line and the blue line will be.

Song Lin looked at the projection and squinted his eyes: "The situation in the northwest is far worse than the national average?"

"Yes." He Lang replied, "I've inquired about it, and this phenomenon has been discovered in the national monitoring system. As early as March, the higher-ups asked Northwest to closely monitor the changes of the mutants and find out reason."

Yuan Chengbing, who was sitting next to Song Lin, asked, "Did you find it?"

"No. In other words, the Northwest said everything is normal, and the reasons they gave for the change are the two I just mentioned." He Lang stretched out two fingers and pointed, "The estrus period, the breeding period."

"Tsk, it's definitely not the result of a serious investigation. A while ago, Chen Lai's forces in the northwest were making a big fuss. Which one of them has time to pay attention to whether there are more mutants or fewer mutants?" Shen Gu sat on the side sofa, Turning his head to look at the projection, "Give me two reasons that seem to make sense, and we'll be done."

"But it's unreasonable." Bai Xiaoning lay on the back of the sofa where Song Lin was sitting, and commented, "The climate in the northwest is harsh, and it is not the most suitable place for living things to grow. There are much fewer species than in the south. National average reproductive rate?"

Shen Gu said: "Perhaps their ordinary animals are indeed not very reproductive, but the mutants are better able to adapt to the environment, so the reproductive ability is also stronger?"

Bai Xiaoning said: "In the same way, the mutated creatures in the south should be easier to adapt and have a higher fertility rate."

Shen Gu was speechless.

Song Lin looked at Yuan Chengbing beside him: "What do you think?"

Yuan Chengbing thought for a while: "Do you still remember that Moxiu said that similar climate changes and biological changes are all due to his devilish energy?"

"Remember." Song Lin said, "So, do you think it's caused by demon energy?"

"It's just a guess." Yuan Chengbing replied, "But it is undeniable that when there is plenty of devil energy, monsters will breed."

Song Lin said: "If you say that, mutants are actually monsters?"

"I think it can be counted." Yuan Chengbing said, "You think, what are the original things in Wanling Base? If these things can be used to refine demons, then they are actually a kind of monsters."

"...makes sense." Song Lin nodded, then looked at the projection again, "So does this mean that a new round of refining demons has started?"

"The fight hasn't started yet, so it shouldn't be counted. After all, the demon cultivator is in a hurry now. If he still wants to refine 'tonics', it should be faster to use a method similar to refining Gu." Yuan Chengbing replied, "But if this continues, I'm afraid Something is going to happen in the Northwest."

He Lang asked, "For example? Abnormal physical attack?"

"It's not impossible." Yuan Chengbing said, "Even if there is no such thing, a person can easily become obsessed if he is in an environment full of demonic energy for a long time... I mean, become depressed, bloodthirsty, and tyrannical."

Song Lin commented lightly: "A tyrannical city full of darkness and hopelessness...it's no different from the Ten Thousand Devils' Nest."

Mo Ruqing, who had been listening all the time, suddenly said: "In this case... Does it mean that Zhang Tai'an's base has already been formed? Isn't his purpose of leading people to defect is to establish a new base?"

"That's just our guess, but in this way, it is indeed very possible." Yuan Chengbing picked up the tablet he brought down, tapped it a few times, and called up the national map again, "He Lang, there is no new base in the northwest recently. Are there any signs that other creatures are congregating, regardless of the flow of humans?"

"About this point, let's talk about extreme weather." He Lang said, "When the wind blows from the northwest, the sky is full of yellow sand. I can't see anything clearly, satellites can't take pictures of anything, and drones can't take off at all. , you know this, right?"

"Sandstorm?" Bai Xiaoning said, "But isn't it something that happens in March and April in spring? It's still blowing? Oh no, it's not surprising that the loess is blowing all year round, isn't it?"

"So, it's the reason you don't think it's strange that we can't grasp the actual situation in many places in the northwest." He Lang said, "According to the weather records, the northwest has been experiencing strong winds since the end of January this year until now. .The drone can’t find the time to go in, and the satellite can only take pictures of the sandstorm. No one knows what’s going on on the ground. It’s still unknown whether people are moving or animals are gathering.”

Bai Xiaoning raised his eyebrows: "Why do I hear this situation... a little familiar?"

"The magic mist of all spirits..." Yuan Chengbing narrowed his eyes and answered the words slowly.

"Where the sun is not clear, there must be a dark wind blowing."

At the same time, the office of a base manager in the northwest.

"Bureau Wu, the imperial capital base has come to notify, and it is already the third red-headed document with the same content."

A male secretary stood in front of the mahogany desk, pushing a document across the table with a slightly embarrassed expression: "The higher authorities require us to find out the reasons for the surge of mutants and riots as soon as possible. In addition, we need to increase the frequency of collecting weather data. , predict as soon as possible how this sandstorm that lasted for several months was caused, and when it is expected to end."

"What do you want me to do with this document?" The middle-aged man known as "Wu Bureau" pushed the document away impatiently, "Just give it to the research center and the meteorological department and it will be over."

"But the money to carry out the research..."

"Dial."

"You said before that you would issue a mission to the private mercenary team to find supplies and weapon arsenals. The funds have not been fully implemented." The secretary frowned slightly, "Also, the T-series assigned to us earlier Virus research, cost and manpower are also a bit insufficient. Now I really can't tell the cost..."

"Tsk, the research on the T-series virus, that's the thing. Now most of the residents are in a state of complete isolation from bowl noodles, afraid of some kind of virus. And so many bases are researching, can they hide their own secrets after researching it?" ? Let me tell you, it’s impossible.” Bureau Wu slapped his hands and replied confidently, “So if we can’t research it, then we don’t have to force it. Even if we can’t research it, it’s nothing, someone will do it. Besides, It doesn’t necessarily mean success after research, experiments always have successes and failures.”

This is a high-sounding statement, and it even makes sense at first glance.But in fact, the translation means "the allocated T-series virus research can be dealt with casually".

Regardless of whether the secretary really agreed in his heart, he would still nod on his face.Then he asked again: "The notice from the base of the imperial capital..."

"What about mutants and what?"

"Sandstorm."

"Tsk, why are these two things again, haven't you answered many times?" Director Wu said dissatisfied, "Answer as you please, if you ask again from the Imperial Capital Base, let Chen Lai send someone to look at it! Really! , Do you think we are not busy enough here? He knows how to command blindly in the imperial base, and if he is told to come to us to eat a few mouthfuls of sand, then he knows that his shit orders are all fantasy."

"...I understand." The secretary is the one who understands the leader's meaning best. Although Bureau Wu is rambling, the secretary already understands what he really wants to express.After the secretary knew how to deal with the two most important things, he asked another question by the way: "By the way, the medical center reported that because the Imperial Capital Base disclosed that the Wanling Base may be involved in the initial stage of the T-series virus and O-1 fungus. Research and dissemination, many people now resist the use of panacea. You see..."

"When is this, how can people die like this?" Director Wu said impatiently, "Use it if you like it, get out if you don't like it, don't treat it if you don't want to be treated, let them die if you don't want to live. It's nothing It's time, and it's really impatient to still engage in this kind of boycott."

"Understood." The secretary nodded, "One more thing..."

"Why are you endless, can't you finish it all at once?"

"The last thing." The secretary is used to the impatience of the leader as usual, and continued to report, "You told Commissioner Chen that you would find Zhang Taian and confirm the reason for Zhang Taian's rebellion. Now the XX base is calling to ask, are you serious? Do you have this plan?"

"What 'this plan'? Oh, you said you were looking for Zhang Tai'an?" Director Wu sneered, "How is this possible? It's just an excuse to confront Chen Lai. Zhang Tai'an is an anti-human guy, who knows what he wants to do .Looking for him? Will I be so stupid as to seek skin from a tiger? You reply to them, I just talk about it, in fact, we still need everyone to unite and 'express opinions' together. Otherwise, Commissioner Chen has always made decisions alone, and his pressure It's too big, isn't it? Let's carry the pressure together."

"Okay, I understand."

After the secretary replied, he packed up the red-headed documents he had brought, and walked out of Bureau Wu's office.

He returned to his office, pulled out an old mobile phone from a drawer, and dialed an unlabeled number inside.

"Hi, it's me....Well, I just came out from Bureau Wu." The secretary threw the red-headed document on his desk, chuckled lightly, and turned the swivel chair so that the back of the chair was facing the desk.

"You guessed it right...he doesn't have the guts to confront you at all."
