Chapter 202: Catching the Infected
"Okay, then don't go out. Leave it to us."
"No, I have to go too. This fog won't hurt me much. You should be the ones who need to be careful."
"But this fog will weaken your mental strength." Bai Mingchen held a stack of test sheets in his hand. "Here is the latest test report."
Sang Tian was now speechless and could only stay at home and browse the forums, waiting for them to come back.
Ding Dong——
The doorbell rang, and Bi Jingyan, who was at home with Sang Tian, went to open the door.
"I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Before Sang Tian even saw Tang Xiaoyan, her voice had already come from the entrance.
"Bad news."
Tang Xiaoyan pressed the blocker as she walked.
"Bad news. If a tunnel is built, Shen Jinxi and her group will also have to come back with them. And now Shen Jinxi seems to be highly regarded over there."
Sang Tian's expression gradually turned cold.
"This is really bad news."
"The good news is that a way to build it has been found and construction has already begun."
"After the bad news, do you think this is still good news?"
Sang Tian was curious, "Chen Jinxi has accomplished nothing here, so why is she so highly regarded over there?"
"It's because her ability is popular and can help females with damaged mental strength to recover. Moreover, all females entering the City of Endless Prosperity will be marked. It seems that Shen Jinxi's ability can remove this mark."
After listening to Tang Xiaoyan's explanation, Sang Tian understood.
In the City of Endlessness, once a female is marked, she will be accurately located by the Star End no matter where she escapes.
"When it comes to luck, Shen Jinxi says she's second, who dares to claim first?" Sang Tian couldn't help but retort, thinking of her and Tang Xiaoyan's previous speculation, she couldn't help but laugh, feeling it was ironic.
"When will this passage be completed? Where will all those people fit in?"
Tang Xiaoyan said, "I came to discuss this matter with you today."
"My current idea is to build another shelter and give the current beastmen the new one, while they live in the old one."
Sang Tian frowned slightly, "You want to use the scent of the orcs to cover them up."
"Yes, once the marks on them are removed, Xingduan will not be able to find them anymore. Apart from the marked people, Xingduan will locate the others by scent."
"Let's give it a try." Sang Tian didn't object.
Tang Xiaoyan observed Sang Tian's expression, "What about Shen Jinxi? You two are sworn enemies, and you still want to give her a place to stay."
"She's still useful now, so let her live for now. I can't end my own life just because of her."
Sang Tian also wanted to use Shen Jinxi to remove the mark on her body.
As for the future, let's take it one step at a time.
Only after getting Sang Tian's permission did Tang Xiaoyan dare to take action on Sang Tian's territory.
When Tang Xiaoyan was about to leave, she happened to run into Qing Zhi and Bai Mingchen who had just returned from catching the infected.
When she saw the man covered in purple spots, her heart almost jumped out of her chest with fear.
"Isn't this the infected person? Why did you bring him here?" Tang Xiaoyan pressed against the wall with fear in her eyes.
Seeing that the person was so scared, Bai Mingchen wanted to tease him.
"I caught him and used him as a gatekeeper."
Tang Xiaoyan, who had originally planned to leave, decided not to leave. She turned around and ran back to the living room, "Sang Tian, is your beastly husband crazy?"
Sang Tian ran over with an excited look on his face, muttering to himself.
"Did you catch it? Did you catch it?"
Bai Mingchen and Qing Zhi dragged the person inside in a body bag and went straight into the cold storage room.
Tang Xiaoyan was both frightened and curious. She pulled Sang Tian aside and asked, "What are you doing with this?"
"Of course it's to do an experiment." Sang Tian couldn't wait to follow in.
When we entered the cold storage room, the body bags had been thrown aside and the infected people were tied up tightly with hemp ropes, lying on the ground like cricket pupae.
Sang Tian opened the box and took out a syringe and a tranquilizer.
The sedative was concentrated, so she planned to test it by injecting only half of it into a human.
The sharp needle pierced the purple skin and entered the blood vessel. Sang Tian began to slowly inject the medicine, and only pulled out the needle after making sure that all the medicine had been injected.
"Were you a witch doctor in your previous world?"
Sang Tian put the needle into the garbage bag and said, "No, you'll get experience if you get pricked so many times."
"Let Bi Jingyan burn this and don't throw it away." Sang Tian pointed at the needle in the garbage bag.
The person lying on the ground did not respond. After three or four minutes, his body began to tremble.
Sang Tian asked, "Is this a reaction?"
"Why does it look like the situation is getting worse?" Tang Xiaoyan looked at the person cautiously.
Bai Mingchen picked the man up from the ground with gloves on and told Qing Zhi, "Put the body bag outside."
Qing Zhi did as he was told.
After putting it outside, people stopped shaking.
Sang Tian pursed her lips in embarrassment. It turned out that she was not reacting, but was simply shivering from the cold.
The four of them guarded the man for almost an hour before the man lying on the ground slowly woke up. He opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar environment and people, his eyes frozen.
Seeing the man's pupils return to normal from cloudy, Sang Tian breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the sedative was working.
"Who are you?" The man sat up and looked at Sang Tian and the others warily.
"Lock him up in the secret room first." Sang Tian was too lazy to waste words with others and let Qing Zhi do his job.
The infected person has just woken up and is still in a weak state.
Qing Zhi ignored the person's wishes and dragged him away like garbage.
Bai Mingchen took out the disinfectant spray and sprayed it on the place where the infected person had just been.
"Are there still people infected outside?" Sang Tian wanted to try normal sedatives again to see if they could make people recover.
Tang Xiaoyan was speechless, "Isn't one enough? How many do you want?"
"Of course one isn't enough. We need at least three. How can we conduct an experiment with just one?"
Bai Mingchen cleaned the floor and deduced, "Wait another week, and the number should increase."
"Where's the female of this orc?"
"At home, after he was infected, the female master drove him out, but he never left the area and was always looking for opportunities to wait for the female master."
Judging from the symptoms, Sang Tian was certain that this was the same natural disaster as in his previous life.
"At this rate, it won't take more than a week, and a new one will be added tomorrow." Sang Tian patted Bai Mingchen on the shoulder. "You've completed today's mission well. As a reward, you can capture another one tomorrow."
"What kind of reward is this?"
Sang Tian took the spray and disinfected her hands. "A verbal reward is enough. As for that guy, wait until he's almost recovered tomorrow and send him out for an experiment. If he's still infected, bring him back."
Bai Mingchen nodded in agreement.
"Tiantian, was that green thing you just saw a vaccine?"
Sang Tian hadn't had time to tell Tang Xiaoyan about this, but Canglan knew about it.
"I'm not sure yet. At most, it's called a concentrated tranquilizer. It needs to be effective before it can be called a vaccine. Wait for my experimental results. If they're good, you can take some back and inject it into your beastly husband."
