Chapter 409 Security

Top floor restaurant.

A light curtain swept across the captain's body.

At the same time, the scanning result was displayed on the simulated light screen at the other end: a piece of green.

No red areas, no genetic invasion, all areas of the body are normal.

In an instant, Dr. Luo felt relieved.

Except for the dead Professor Suzuki and Professor Brian who was in the isolation room, none of the other crew members were parasitized.

"This time you can touch heavy weapons."

Not far away, Roger swallowed a piece of steak, turned his head to look at Lu Li who was sitting next to him, and said:

"By the way, how did the two professors get infected with that thing? They are so ugly."

He searched all the way and finally reached the medical area. Before he could be happy, he was shocked by the scene in the transparent isolation room in the corner.

The fully automatic medical cabin made of anti-collision glass and high-strength alloy was half melted, and an unrecognizable corpse lay on it.

In addition, there is a grayish-white mass of meat in its chest cavity.

"not sure."

Lu Li had a good appetite, and he ate two whole steaks. While dealing with the stewed blood sausage in front of him, he replied, "But according to the captain, it's very likely that Professor Suzuki brought the fungal spore sample on board."

"Fungus spores... mean mushrooms, the mushrooms that are often used in Chinese cuisine?"

Roger was full of surprise, he really couldn't accept that the gray-white parasites were mushroom spores.

"Probably."

Although Lu Li was almost certain that the culprit was the spores, he couldn't explain the reason. He couldn't say "I saw it in a movie", right?

[Black Water: AO-2959X.91-15, chemical liquid, genetic catalyst, a viscous liquid, often found in amphibolite-like ampoules. Once any organism comes into contact with the substance, it will cause a sudden mutation centered on the contact part, and accelerate the evolution and development of infected cells.

Colour: Black

Features: Highly polluting, ultra-high infectivity, ultra-high risk]

Naturally, this kind of substance cannot be used on the dissection table, but after dissecting the alien corpse for a whole week, everyone thought that they would encounter this kind of creature in the next exam, so they devoted themselves to studying it.

Among them, a fungal spore is mentioned.

When the concentration of black water is too high, it will infect the surrounding vegetation, and fungi are one of them.

However, plants are different from animals.

Black water and them have produced a delicate symbiotic balance relationship, that is, plants can carry out photosynthesis and continue to perform the function of purifying the planet.

However, when a living body passes by, the black water absorbed by the plant will diffuse into the air through the sporangia and other organs...

Ears, mouth, and nose will all become breakthrough points for viruses.

"Brother, what are you thinking?"

Seeing that Lu Li was holding the knife and fork still, Roger couldn't help raising his hand and shaking it in front of his eyes.

Things have evolved to this point, and Lu Li must actively respond to it without being suspected. He said frankly, "I just think the protection plan can be improved."

"Two double teams took turns guarding the isolation room to ensure that the parasite would not come out to make trouble."

"In addition, we should learn from Professor Suzuki's lesson. When exploring the scientific research area and looking for the source of the disease, we should wear protective clothing with a built-in independent air system."

In order to avoid large-scale casualties, Lu Li racked his brains, taking advantage of his foresight to offer advice frequently.

Just in time, Dr. Luo, who came to join the table with a plate, heard this and responded, "Mr. Lu is very strict. If we hadn't heard your reminder, we might have overlooked this point."

"Excellent reputation. Everyone in the medical team is an expert. When exploring the scientific research area, they will definitely make preparations."

Lu Li is not a person with low EQ. When others greet him with a smile, he will naturally raise his hand.

In this way, the three of them ate and chatted, and their relationship became much closer.

But most of the time, it was Lu Li and Dr. Rhodes who were chatting, and Roger, a muscular man, acted as the background board, listening silently, expressing emotion from time to time, and becoming more and more wary of the mysterious spore virus in his heart.

In addition, Rhodes and Roger are not from the same family.

The former is a pure human being of Asian descent. Although he has not yet broken free from the genetic shackles, his strength is not bad. After two rounds of testing, there is a high probability that he will succeed in the third round.

The latter is a modified person. The face is made of bionic metal. Judging from the outline, the ancestors should be Westerners. Except for the original internal organs, other areas have been updated at least once. Let alone whether the alien can break through this defense, if If it goes in, there is a high probability that it will be stunted due to lack of nutrition.

"We've been doing everything we can to keep panic from spreading, but... with little success."

Dr. Luo put down the plate and looked around. Most of the crew left after eating in a hurry. At present, only the captain, first mate, and members of the medical team are still in the dining room.

Hearing this, Lu Lili felt something. He thought of the blood race world, a ridiculous dungeon where bureaucracy prevails and capital is rampant. He said in a deep voice, "It's a normal reaction. In fact, it's good to be nervous. It can avoid numbness and ignorance."

"really."

The big guy Roger nodded in agreement. He has led teams to perform interstellar missions all year round. He has rich experience and has seen many people and things.

"Just now Tinder took another ten air samples, and the test results show that everything in the scientific research area is normal."

At this time, the captain also came over with a plate, as if he wanted to join this energetic small group.

"What is the testing standard?"

Lu Li looked very curious.

And the captain shrugged, saying that he didn't know, because, in his perception, the result given by Tinder was the standard answer.

"Match each component in the sample with the database, exclude unknown elements, and exclude dangerous elements."

The sound came from the watch.

In order to be able to contact Lu Li in time, Tinder deliberately hacked into the system and added himself to the contact list.

Frankly speaking, Lu Li didn't care much about this surveillance-like behavior. Anyway, as long as he didn't draw his own blood, it would be fine to take it for testing.

"So, the research room is safe?"

Dr. Luo frowned. He expected to find the source of the disease in order to study it and make a vaccine.

"uncertain."

The Tinder did not give a definite answer, after all, it is not an omniscient and omnipotent god.

the other side.

Under the protection of two reformers, the female doctor Amy started the research on the stillbirth of the alien.

"Is this an exoskeleton?"

"Bones wrap the body. This physiological structure really subverts scientific cognition."

Amy muttered to herself.

The tone was full of surprise, but she did not fall into madness because of it, wanting to find out the truth desperately.

On the contrary, the female doctor was very calm and kept a safe distance from the experimental subject. There was a thick protective glass and a five-meter-long laser channel between the two.
