Chapter 488 Don't Allow Pigeons

Despite the accident, Xu Ling did not panic.

This SAN-1 had already been expected before he entered the fog, because he knew too much about the power of chaos, and when he split the fog with a knife just now, he noticed some of the secrets in it.

So after hearing Ah Jing say that someone had come in, he felt intensely worried, and decided to enter the gray mist on the spot to experience it for himself.

Unfortunately, he guessed right, the power of chaos in this fog will indeed have adverse effects on humans, and the decrease in his own SAN value is the best proof.

And his actions also showed that even a sealed protective suit cannot isolate the influence of the power of chaos, so people who have entered the fog for a short time before may also be in danger.

Xu Ling lowered his head and saw that the footprints from when he came were still clearly visible. At least after confirming that this was not some supernatural space, he followed a row of footprints and walked out of the mist.

When he came to the outermost range, he vaguely heard voices outside.

"We have to go in and find him."

This was Ning Qingshuang's voice. She was originally in charge of security work, but at this time, she was negotiating with another person apparently because she discovered that the rope had broken.

I only heard Ah Jing's voice and said: "But if we go in, the rope will also be broken. Look at the broken position, there are obvious traces of corrosion. It's really strange. The fog obviously didn't detect the corrosion."

Then came Xie Yilang's voice: "Don't worry, let's choose someone first, but observe again, don't act rashly until the last moment..."

Xu Ling felt relieved that this guy was finally not as impulsive as before.

"...If something happens to him, it's useless for us to go."

Can you speak?

Xu Ling walked out of the mist with a dark face: "I'm back."

Xie Yilang turned his head: "Finally back, we said just now that we would look for you regardless of the cost."

"thank you."

Xu Ling sighed helplessly, then suddenly came to his senses, and said to Ah Jing seriously, "Who has entered this fog just now, no, as long as it has been in contact with it, find it immediately and return to Marcus Town with me."

"What, what's wrong?"

Seeing that he was so serious, Ah Jing knew that the matter must be serious, but she still couldn't help asking.

"I know you really want to ask, but don't ask first, Xie Yilang, gather all the researchers and strictly prohibit anyone from entering the fog again. If you want to study the fog, you can only use instruments and equipment, and direct physical contact is not allowed...etc .”

Xu Ling's face changed, "Where is the sample just now?"

Ah Jing pointed to the instruments and researchers not far away: "There."

Xu Ling walked over quickly, almost sternly told the person who was still analyzing the samples to back off, and then reached out and touched the transparent transistor filled with mist.

[SAN-1. ]
It’s over.

It suddenly occurred to him just now that when he entered the mist, he was obviously wearing a completely enclosed protective suit, but he was still affected by the power of chaos and consumed his SAN value, indicating that the gray mist is not a concrete representation of the power of chaos, but an accompanying creature , true chaos is invisible and cannot be physically isolated.

Unlike the power of chaos that can be cut off with the sheath of Baldur's sword, this place is even weirder and more terrifying to humans.

"Has anyone touched this container?"

Xu Ling turned to Ah Jing and asked eagerly, "Have you ever touched it?"

"Touch, touch."

Ah Jing was a little scared, he had never seen Xu Ling talking to himself like this.

Xu Ling took a deep look at him: "We can't stay in this place any longer. Everyone pack up their instruments and retreat immediately."

What he is most worried about is the current situation. His SAN value resists the influence of the power of chaos, but others do not have this means. The worst result is that all people who have been exposed to the fog may mutate and become no one. Sane walking dead.

After he sternly issued the order, even Xie Yilang, Ning Qingshuang and the others did not dare to talk too much, they could only organize all the people to retreat, and retreated back to Marcus Town with the people in the middle reaches of the Mobius River.

After Xu Ling reported the situation, even if there was no evidence, the headquarters took it very seriously, and then isolated and observed the people who had been exposed to the fog. Three days later, the person who had personally entered the fog showed symptoms of rapid heart rate. The same goes for the people, and the situation escalated immediately.

"The power of chaos on such a large scale..."

Zhu Taran rarely showed a helpless look, mainly because the current opponent is not an entity, and he cannot be resolved by beating him up if he refuses to accept it.

"And that bullshit fog is still spreading, it's so damn hateful!" Zhang Yuan hammered the table, feeling very depressed.

Fu Zheng, who had been silent all this time, spoke again: "The so-called chaotic power encountered this time has a very fast and stronger effect, and it is still expanding. The situation is more serious than it seems on the surface."

When the chief spoke, the others looked at him and listened quietly.

"This kind of mist can cause mutations in humans, and it also has the same effect on non-warriors. If the mist is allowed to spread indefinitely, all the efforts we have made over the past century will be in vain."

This is obvious. Humans lose consciousness and attack other creatures, which is no different from monsters. If the fog is allowed to spread unrestricted, the human world will collapse sooner or later.

Xu Ling said, "But what should we do?"

"First of all, we must understand the cause of the mist. Secondly, we must study its composition and try to find a way to eliminate the mist. If we can't, we must try to resist and prevent the mist from spreading. At worst, we must research an antidote. Addressing the mutating effects of fog on humans."

Xu Ling said: "I can go inside without being affected by the fog to investigate the cause."

The eyes of the others stayed on his face for a while, and they agreed with this statement. After all, the sword of Baldur did not affect him.

But the key issue now is that researchers can't touch the fog. Since they can't even touch it, how can they talk about research.

At this time, a figure suddenly walked in from outside the headquarters, and everyone looked up, it was Li Xian.

"Chief, a total of 230 people in the research team of the investigation team have applied for the analysis and research on the fog, please approve."

After speaking, he put a stack of paper full of words on the table. Xu Ling glanced at it, except for a few short lines of application content, the rest of the large blank space was filled with signatures one after another.

Xu Ling knew that there were more than [-] researchers in the investigation team, but he didn't ask any questions.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Xian said again: "We will strengthen protection, try not to touch the fog samples as much as possible, and strive to achieve results while ensuring safety."

But with more than 200 people participating in the research, even if protection is strengthened, who can guarantee that all of them will not be affected by the fog.

After thinking for a long time, Fu Zheng took the paper, picked up a pen and wanted to sign it, but Zhu Taran who was beside him suddenly said, "I am the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, so I should come."

Fu Zheng frowned and said, "It's against you."

"Leapfrog signing and approval is not in compliance with the regulations!"

"I am the rule!"

When the two were arguing, Xu Ling had already sneakily brought the things over.

"Don't argue, don't argue, of course I will sign the matter of our investigation team."

As he spoke, he wrote the word "agree" on the unofficial application.

After leaving the headquarters, Xu Ling went to find Ah Jing first. Now he is in the same ward with several others, and it can't be called isolation, but he has to be checked every day.

"How does it feel?" he asked.

Ah Jing put the book she was reading by the bed, and said with a smile, "Your body looks good, and it tastes good."

Xu Ling walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "If you need anything, just say it."

"I need to get back to research."

Ah Jing said, seeing Xu Ling frowning, he added, "Oh, anyway, we have already started to show symptoms, don't bite if there are too many lice, don't worry about debts, while there is still a period of sobriety, do it. Make a contribution."

People who were also infected by the power of chaos came over one after another: "Sir, we also want to participate."

Xu Ling was silent for a while and said, "Go, I agree."

Before leaving the ward, he said again: "I will go deep into the gray fog as soon as possible to find the cause and solution of it. You try to hold on until I come back with a solution."

Ah Jing said with a smile: "Doves are not allowed."
