Chapter 3 Withering Walking Dead
Inside the medical pod, Zuo Shan kept her eyes tightly closed, but the situation that Xiao Bai was worried about—that the liquid inside would flood her—did not happen.
He had used his mental power to observe the liquid the moment it opened, and discovered that it contained a rich life force and powerful energy.
This is why he dared to put the left fan into the liquid.
At the same time, Bo Yiyan also used his supernatural ability to observe this so-called medical pod, and his surprise was indescribable!
As a pharmacist, he had prepared many kinds of therapeutic drugs, but his drugs were usually oral. He never thought that there would be a drug that could be soaked in so that the drug could be fully absorbed into the patient's body.
This opened up a new avenue for him, and for a pharmacist, such a new avenue could lead to countless innovative drug formulations.
He was so excited that his whole body was trembling!
However, despite his excitement, he was more concerned about whether Zuo Shan could be saved by this medicine.
Five minutes later, a gentle notification sound came from the medical pod again: "After comprehensive treatment in the medical pod, your health index has recovered to 38."
Given the devastating psychological trauma you have suffered, it is recommended that you seek help from a mental master of S rank or higher after leaving the medical pod. We wish you a speedy recovery!
Next, we will take you to the safe isolation area in the back to wait for a detailed quarantine inspection!
Then, everyone saw the medical pod open automatically, and a long mechanical arm extended from the back row, scooping her up from the liquid in the medical pod and placing her on a long, three-seater bench in the back row.
After everyone, including Panda, completed their initial screening, the screening vehicle carried them through the arched doorway on the first floor of the space quarantine station.
Inside, there is a row of transparent, enclosed cubicles. Inside each cubicle, there are two robots wearing protective suits made of a soft metal material. They use syringes with invisible needles to draw blood from each person.
Before they even felt the pain, their blood was already being drawn. Each person had about 10 milliliters of blood taken, except for the two mechanical beings, Chestnut and Panda.
They were each led into a separate cubicle, which was instantly enveloped in white mist. A few minutes later, a notification sounded:
"The special spray from the Mechanical Clan has conducted a thorough quarantine. You are not carrying the Wither X800 series virus. Congratulations on passing the final test!"
Staff will issue you a green pass shortly, which will grant you entry into the Silverwing Star safe zone.
The notification sound weighed heavily on everyone's hearts. When they left Green Algae Star, everyone thought they were going to a peaceful and tranquil place.
Unexpectedly, after leaving the highly radioactive Green Algae Star, we entered this Silverwing Star, which is threatened by viruses.
Although it is still unclear what this so-called thing is, the fact that it can set up a quarantine station at the edge of a planet's atmosphere speaks volumes about the level of danger it poses.
Xiao Bai looked at Zuo Shan in his arms. Although she was still unconscious, her complexion looked much better than before. This was the only thing that made him feel relieved, but it was also the thing that worried him the most.
If this terrible virus, known as the "Wither X800 series virus," is prevalent on this planet, it means that everyone is at risk of infection.
Among them, the one most susceptible to infection is undoubtedly the left fan in his arms.
In previous tests, even the person with the lowest health index, Bo Yiyan, reached 65, while Zuo Shan, after receiving treatment in the medical pod, only reached a health index of 38, which was below the passing mark.
But there's no use worrying now; they can only try their best to take precautions.
About fifteen minutes later, the results came out: everyone passed the final security check and received a green pass.
The so-called green pass is not a card or anything like that, but a biochip, a green transparent strip that is directly attached to the center of the forehead and then blends into the skin and disappears.
Everyone thinks this technology is amazing; it saves energy and is safe and environmentally friendly.
They were finally able to leave the space quarantine station, but their spaceship was not allowed to be used. It was electronically sealed and required to be stored in the space for 68 hours.
According to the robot staff here, this "Wither X800 series virus" will completely disappear after being stored in the space button for more than 68 hours.
Previously, they could only use public transportation.
Only one spaceship departs from this space quarantine station to the Silverwing Star safe zone each day, leaving them with no choice but to wait patiently in the waiting area.
In the waiting area, Mao Li found detailed information about the "Wither X800 series virus" and learned about its origins.
This virus originated from the planet Yingxue 200 years ago.
Yingxue Star is a relatively backward planet on the outermost edge of the Liuguang Galaxy. Later, with the influx of interstellar adventurers, it quickly became a Type I civilization.
Rapid industrial development has led to environmental pollution. Due to the greenhouse effect, a large portion of the glaciers that originally covered a quarter of the planet, Yingxue Star, have melted.
After the devastating flood, an unknown ancient virus surfaced along with the melting glaciers, quickly triggering a plague.
During this plague, large numbers of humans and animals died, and the virus continued to evolve in the corpses, becoming infected by new explorers.
They took away the resources they plundered from Yingxue Star, along with this unknown virus.
Later, a biologist discovered this virus and named it "Wither X Virus" because it left no trace of humans or animals wherever it went.
In just five years, the Wither X virus rose to become the number one virus in the Flowing Light Galaxy, and quarantine stations were set up on every planet with the necessary conditions.
Given that the civilization level of the Flowing Light Galaxy has reached level three, travel between planets is very easy. Therefore, planets with the necessary conditions have set up space quarantine stations to prevent virus carriers from other planets.
Over the course of two centuries, the "Wither X Virus" has spawned countless variants, and three years ago, its serial number had already reached 800.
And they are no longer just dead people, but after they die, they come back to life and become mindless, bloodthirsty monsters. These monsters are collectively known as withered zombies.
Withering zombies have become the common enemy of the entire galaxy, and every citizen has an obligation to hunt them down, and will receive contribution points for each kill.
The once-common currency, Flowing Star Coins, has now been replaced by Flowing Star Points.
In other words, if you don't kill the withering zombies, you'll only become the poorest of the poor, suffering from hunger and thirst.
