The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1658. B.O.W's Threat

It's no wonder that Casio Tag sneered at the T-virus that once appeared on the battlefield and posed a great threat to the army of the Republic.

Because since the T virus appeared on the battlefield, the Galactic Republic has attached great importance to this virus. They brought back a large number of samples from the battlefield for research, and also obtained a large amount of data.

It should be pointed out that although the Galactic Republic has obtained the T virus sample, it does not mean that they can reversely manufacture the T virus. In order to completely replicate the T virus, the original T virus must be purified and extracted. Otherwise, the mutated zombies will only contain genetic fragments of the T virus.

However, this does not prevent the Galactic Republic from mastering most of the characteristics of the T virus through a large number of experiments. They now know that the T virus can only survive in the air for less than 5 minutes, so it cannot be transmitted through the air. It is also known that although the T virus can survive in water, it cannot be transmitted, so unless the food with the T virus is directly eaten, aquatic animals are rarely infected.

At the same time, the most violent medium for T virus transmission is body fluids, such as saliva and blood, and even gastric juice. Objects infected by this medium will mutate in just a few minutes.

And according to the experiment, the biologists of the Republic also discovered that the zombies produced by the mutation of the T virus are actually just by-products, and cannot form any threatening combat power at all. The T virus mainly produces biological weapons through mutation.

But these scientists also said that the biological weapons mutated by the T virus cannot resist the shooting of the DC-15S blaster rifles equipped by active soldiers. And according to their current experiments, even if it is a mutation under extreme conditions, the mutated things cannot pose a threat to tank armor units.

So the conclusion of scientists is, is the T virus dangerous? very dangerous! But this is mainly aimed at civilians and cities. If it breaks out in cities and densely populated areas, it will destroy the entire social order in a short period of time.

But the response is also very easy, as long as the input and prevention and control work is done well to avoid a sudden and large-scale outbreak of the virus. In this regard, the biological scientists of the Republic have also developed several drugs against the T virus. As long as they take the drugs, they can avoid being infected by the virus for a period of time.

However, the threat of the T virus to the army, after the biologists of the Republic submitted their conclusions to the Supreme Strategic Command, the military scientists of the Republic generally believed that this thing was not a big threat to the army. Even if an entire city is infected by the T virus, with the combat capabilities of the TX-130 Saber tank and the AT-TE walker, only one armored company can wipe out the entire city, and it will take a little effort at most.

Then they upgraded the full-coverage helmet of the clone soldier. In the second-generation helmet, the problem of this virus was fully considered, and the virus could be easily filtered. At the same time, the simple respirators distributed to ordinary soldiers can also adequately filter out viruses.

Of course, departments at all levels of the Galactic Republic have not yet connected the Injori Avengers with the T virus. They generally think that the Injori Avengers are some modified and strengthened Injori people.

So it's no wonder that Casio Tag sneered at the T virus. Let alone how much threat those mutated monsters can pose to the army in his hands, you must know that it is now on the planet Anji! On the Separatists' own planet! And the Anji planet is also the capital of the Mordel sector, the only Gaia planet!

If this battle took place on the mainland of the Galactic Republic, Casio Tag would have to be nervous and immediately send troops to clean up the T virus. but now? Separatists use T virus on their own planet? Then please go ahead, anyway, the people who died from the spread of the virus are not the civilians of the Galactic Republic.

"Let all landing troops prepare for anti-biological and chemical warfare! In addition, let the clone soldiers not be relentless. Once they find suspicious targets, whether they are civilians or not, they will be shot and killed!" Casio-Tag issued an order.

"Then, what about the direction of the jungle?" Laszlo Dolittle asked.

"Mobilize some incendiary bombs from other theaters and hand them over to fighter jets in that direction for bombing." Casio Tag waved his hand indifferently.

"There are large swamps in the jungle, and the incendiary bombs thrown by fighter jets have limited effect, and can easily injure our own troops." Dolittle said with a frown.

"Just inform them of our bombing plan! Tell them, we will use air power to directly help them burn a path!" Tag made the final combat decision.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

A messenger staggered over and said loudly, "General! General! Katie city is urgent!!"

"What happened?!" Casio Tag immediately sensed that something was wrong.

"The 77th Legion in Katie City has been completely disconnected! But we have received some sporadic communications...all...all..." The orderly was pale and incoherent.

"What is it all! Calm down!!" Laszlo Dolittle walked over and lifted him up.

"It's all...screams, gunshots, and cries for help..." the orderly said, "There are also some sounds...not even human..."

He heard the sporadic communications from the 77th Corps the whole time, and the voices in it really scared him.

"How is this possible? How could the monster of the T-virus be the opponent of our army?!" Casio Tag turned pale, "Our weapons can easily destroy any mutated creature of the T-virus!"

Yes, all fear stems from lack of firepower. Since there are enough weapons here to destroy any T-virus biological weapons, what is there to worry about?

"I have no idea I have no idea……"

"Send a reconnaissance plane right away! Send a squadron of the nearest LAAT assault transport boat over there, and make sure to find out how the battle is going!! Where is the nearest Cheerer-class assault landing ship? Can it be moved there?" At this time, Casio- Tag is a little confused, and the veteran Laszlo Dolittle is still in danger.

"Yes Yes!"

"Also! Continue to contact the armored troops in the south of Katie City! Tell them to go to Katie City for reinforcements immediately no matter what happens!"

...

However, at this moment, it is still inside the city of Kati, which is still shrouded in darkness.

Shhhhh~~! ! A burst of blaster rifle fire immediately wiped out several lickers in front of them. But the few clone soldiers who shot didn't feel any joy, they were retreating in a panic.

"Quick! Get out of here! Get out of here!!"

"Those monsters are coming again!"

"Grenade! Blow up those corpses!!" A soldier hurriedly threw a grenade at the corpse of the licker.

boom! ! ! The violent explosion immediately blasted the corpse to pieces! The armor attached to the licker before was also scattered in the explosion.

However, the group of soldiers hadn't gone far when suddenly there was the sound of heavy footsteps.

Immediately afterwards, in the darkness at a height of 4 or 5 meters above the ground in front of them, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly lit up! (end of this chapter)
