Chapter 18 Research
Listening to the disappearing footsteps outside the house, Smith breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but feel a little sad and angry: What happened to this world?
The Central Avenue incident in New York was too far away from him, but he saw the huge tsunami in Boston Harbor for real. This time the monster was real!

As a British employee, Smith never dreamed that he would suffer such a thing.

Smith, 37, is an employee of a bioengineering company in Boston.

Smith couldn't forget that 10 minutes ago, the department next door, the department we went to the swimming pool with yesterday because of their good work, suddenly turned into monsters and began to massacre them crazily!

There are no weapons here: who would bring a gun to work when they have nothing to do?

Under the shock of the monsters, they were slaughtered like chickens. Smith was lucky enough to get into the warehouse in the chaos, hide in a corner and barely escape the massacre of the monsters, and survived.

He wanted to call 911 now, but he left his cell phone on his desk when he escaped into the warehouse. Now he has no way to seek help!

Smith's mentality collapsed.

Listening to the faint roars and roars outside, Smith hid in the corner and could only choose to wait for the government's rescue.

I don't know how long it took, but Smith made a bold decision under extreme suffering.

He wants to go out, he wants to pick up his cell phone, dial 911, and ask for support!
Regardless of other things, it's not a problem for me to stay here all the time!

Before he could take a few steps, the fierce gunshots startled Smith. However, along with the monster's screams and the call of the American commandos, Smith felt happy: The American government was coming!

At the moment when he was picked up by the army, Smith felt as if he was in heaven.

Smith is just a small abbreviation for the city of Boston. Countless people were rescued by the army, and of course many people were unfortunately killed.

In the face of a similar disaster, even if a biochemical crisis breaks out and hundreds of thousands of people become zombies, the government of a great country still has the ability to rebuild the country.

After all, based on human nature, it is impossible to be overturned by zombies without intelligence.

In the Boston City Government Building, officials such as the Governor of Massachusetts, the Vice President of the United States, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives originally planned to leave on a special plane today, but suddenly something like this happened, which instantly caused several officials to have a mental breakdown.

What can I say, it's so embarrassing.

Previously, Mr. President had loudly promised in front of the people of the world that "we have the most powerful weapons in the world" and "the Boston Port incident will never happen again." But in the blink of an eye, the incident happened again.

The most embarrassing thing is that less than three hours after the president announced the incident, the incident happened again, and the location was still in Boston!

But this was just a slap in the face. After discovering this situation, the troops stationed in Boston quickly attacked with an iron fist, and the weakened version of the deep divers throughout Boston suffered an immediate blow.

In just three and a half hours, most of the weakened deep divers have been killed, and there are even research species that have been captured alive.

In the face of modern technology, it is impossible for this group of irrational monsters to win.

"How's the scientist's investigation going?"

During the meeting, Vice President Rice half-reclined on his seat with some depression, and said feebly: "Are you clear? What is going on? Is it the return of undersea creatures or the reappearance of a biological crisis?"

"Gentlemen, we haven't found any signs of transmission yet. This doesn't seem to be a biohazard." The commissioner hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"According to our investigation, all the 'monsters' are actually citizens of Boston, but for some unknown reason, their bodies have mutated, and a strange energy dominates their bodies."

"After the mutation, their metabolism is very fast, so they must constantly eat carbon-based organisms to maintain their strength. If they do not supplement food for a long time, they will become restless and even self-harm."

"The strange virus in their bodies can transform the parasites, completely take over the human nervous system and cause brain death, so those monsters are actually dead, but the strange energy in their bodies is still driving them."

"Because it is driven by special energy, the body needs a lot of energy, so the parasites have a strong desire to eat. They are tenacious because they only have two organs running in their bodies: brain neurons and heart, both of which are powered by this strange energy. Control, maintain yourself for it.”

Listening to the commissioner's speech, Vice President Rice nodded: "So, why did they mutate? Do you know the source of the strange energy? Have you analyzed what the strange energy is?"

Hearing this, the commissioner couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and could only stammer: "Well, after we dissected the corpse, this strange energy seemed to have evaporated, and the cause of the mutation cannot be determined for the time being."

"However, through the analysis of the mutants' data, nearly one-third of them joined in the fun and went to Boston Harbor after the Boston Harbor incident."

"Nearly half of the survivors in Boston Port became monsters, and only a small number of people did not mutate. But they were all approached by monsters."

"The remaining two-thirds of the mutants. I'm very sorry, but we haven't found out what went wrong yet."

Everyone fell into silence once again, feeling deeply powerless.

Vice President Rice forced a smile, and said to the commissioner, "It's okay, it's only been four hours, and it's not easy for you to analyze so much in four hours."

After that, he turned around and ordered the officials in Boston: "Now gather all the survivors of the Boston Port Incident and the government will allocate funds. Give them 100 meters a day and ask them to cooperate with us in research!"

When Vice President Rice was young, he always believed in one truth: technology comes first.

Now is no exception.

Thousands of miles away from Boston, on the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, Jingchuan opened his eyes, as if he noticed something.

But he knew what happened in Boston just now after feeling it a little bit, and instantly showed a speechless expression.

What just happened in Boston was just that the extraordinary energy of the deep divers left after the last attack was too strong, mutating some of the people who accidentally absorbed it.

Some people become very strong after absorbing this extraordinary energy, while others cannot bear it and become monsters.

Of course, people who become monsters are not contagious. After all, the little bit of aura they are infected with is too little, and it will be gone if they spread again.

As for Zhao Quan, he was possessed by Dagon but luckily survived. A lot of the divine power that originally belonged to Dagon was still left in his body, which naturally gave him extraordinary energy that was no less than that of a deep diver.
