After a while, the meal was brought in from the kitchen.
Zhao Xian briefly explained the situation to her and changed his bloodstained clothes. "You eat first. I'm going to have a review meeting. I'll take you home after the meeting."
Qiao Xuejun picked up the lunch box: "Let's go together."
Zhao Xian: "I'm afraid you won't be able to eat after hearing this."
Qiao Xuejun ignored his advice and went to their review meeting.
In addition to the patrol team that had just returned, there were also two military doctors from the medical room and three experts from the research laboratory.
She was indeed a little hungry, but luckily there were not many bites left, so she finished it quickly.
As soon as the meeting began, Mr. An took out two glass jars containing white and yellow brain tissue.
They belong to sea monsters and mutants respectively.
It was still moving and contracting rhythmically, and seemed to be still alive.
But what is alive is definitely not the brain tissue, but something else that is parasitic on it.
The Research Department and the Medical Department jointly explained the "symbiotic bacteria" that created sea monsters and mutants.
The general content is the same as what Mr. An said before.
This time, the medical perspective of military doctors is added.
Doctor Zheng: "The behavior of this symbiotic bacterium defies medical common sense. Humans infected with this bacterium can move in extreme cold and possess incredible strength. This objectively requires a tremendous expenditure of energy—they must need to eat a lot. Simultaneously, their metabolic mechanisms would undergo drastic changes, leaving them in a constant state of hyperactivity."
"We speculate that this operating state cannot be sustained for much longer. Simply put, it will die early."
Doctor Zheng paused as he spoke. "However, this is only our preliminary guess. We still need to study the performance of various organs in living subjects before we can reach a further conclusion."
The meeting then focused on how to capture sea monsters and mutants alive.
The Research Department provided a first-stage inhibitor they had developed that could help the patrol team control sea monsters and mutants.
But this is only a first-stage medicine. Its medicinal properties are not very stable and its effect is limited. The patrol team needs to pay more attention to it.
The medical department and the patrol team discussed which parts of the sea monsters to injure first in order to eliminate their ability to move as much as possible without being fatal.
The patrol team knew where to hit the target for the best results, but the medical department felt that continuing to hit the target might affect the research.
Finally, a plan was decided upon which everyone felt was temporarily feasible and put into trial operation.
After the meeting, Zhao Xian and the patrol team had an internal meeting to attend, so Qiao Xuejun went to the engineering department to find Zhao Yun again.
Man is drawing.
"Deputy Minister Zhao, is the survey completed?" Qiao Xuejun walked forward and asked.
Zhao Yun looked up and said, "Teacher Qiao! You're here! Yes, I went to survey for a day, but it's not finished yet. It will take some time, but I have a rough idea of it. Tomorrow my master will go out and survey it in detail. He is designing the geothermal well."
"Are you here to ask about the ranch construction?"
Zhao Yun put down his pen and picked up the diagram Qiao Xuejun had left behind. "I've taken a look at it. It doesn't seem to be too technically difficult. All your requirements can be met. We can discuss the details later."
Qiao Xuejun: "How long will the construction take?"
Zhao Yun thought for a moment and said, "Actually, all the current projects have to focus on this geothermal well first. But Mr. Qiao, your ranch is simple, and the materials used are also simple, so it won't take a lot of manpower. You can wear low-temperature clothing to work on it for a few days."
"Of course, that's if my brother and the others aren't out on a mission and have low-temperature clothing."
"It will take about fifteen days."
Qiao Xuejun: "Okay, got it."
After the general discussion, the two discussed the construction details.
When I got back after finishing the work, it was just time for dinner to end.
After dinner, Qiao Xuejun didn't wait for Zhao Xian. She borrowed a low-temperature coat and went back to the shelter.
She agreed with the coordination department that they would come to pick up the low-temperature clothing tomorrow.
It may be that Zhao Xian and his team went out to fight against mutants today, and now there is no sign of mutants appearing on the mountain.
She returned home safely and peacefully, without having to use the gun she had prepared in her bag.
Hearing her movement, Wang Juanfeng immediately came out to check: "Qiao Qiao is back?"
She looked at Qiao Xuejun, very surprised. She came forward to greet her and helped her brush off the ice chips on her body. "It's so late, I thought you wouldn't come back. Why didn't you send me a message in advance?"
Qiao Xuejun said, "I'll be back after I finish my work over there. I can still do something in the evening."
Wang Juanfeng: "Did the lord send you back? Did he let him in to warm you up?"
Qiao Xuejun: "No, I came back by myself. He went out on a mission today and was very tired, so I didn't call him." She could walk by herself and didn't want anyone to send her back. She wanted Zhao Xian to rest more.
Wang Juanfeng looked at her pale face from the cold and said, "Let's go to the small compartment. There's a fire burning there. It's very warm."
There is already heating, and with the fire burning, you can wear short sleeves in the small cubicle.
After entering the small compartment, Qiao Xuejun took off his coat and sat by the fireplace to keep warm.
Kuang Qianli and Zhao Linlin were holding homemade playing cards in their hands.
Qiao Xuejun raised an eyebrow: "Are you guys still playing cards?"
Kuang Qianli: "We've finished our work, so let's have some fun. How's the situation at the base? Is everything okay?"
Qiao Xuejun took off his gloves and said, "Well, everything is running normally. It's just that the situation at the Sea Fort is a bit tense."
Kuang Qianli: "Fortunately you sent them food, otherwise the situation would be even more tense. It would be like the Fourth Base."
The Fourth Base has to go out for food, and there will be casualties. News has been coming in from the radio in the past few days.
Wang Juanfeng touched Qiao Xuejun's hand: "It's ice cold."
