Zhou Yuanyuan: "It is said that Bai Ze's ability is an extremely wide-ranging open field, covering the entire sixth district, and can even penetrate other spore-generating fields."
Xie Xuan shuddered.
If this statement is true, then doesn't it mean that in District 6, Bai Ze is a god in some sense?
Ling Wenqing shook his head upon hearing this. "That's just a rumor. Intervention mode is a backup plan that can only be activated when all team members are infected and the probability of surviving the mission is less than 1%. I've worked at the Ecological Bureau for over a decade, and intervention mode has only been activated a single-digit number of times. The original intention of this design was to ensure that the sacrifices of the mission executors were not in vain."
Xie Xuan could understand it intellectually, but could not accept it emotionally.
She really doesn't like the feeling of being used like a tool.
Zhou Yuanyuan didn't say anything else, took out the communicator and placed it on her temple.
The pure white mycelium grew rapidly, firmly fixing the small mushroom-like communicator next to Zhou Yuanyuan's head. It looked like a small mushroom had grown out of her skull.
Xie Xuan got goosebumps, but Ling Wenqing also put on the communicator.
Xie Xuan could only take out his communicator and stick it to his temple. Except for a slight cool and itchy feeling when he first put it on, he could hardly feel the existence of the communicator afterwards.
"Attention Team 320. We are expected to arrive at our destination in five minutes. Please put on your protective gear and be ready. Preliminary mission rating: D-Class Reproduction. Estimated time to maturity: 2 hours and 15 minutes."
Bai Ze's voice came from the speakers of the shuttle bus, and the communicators they were wearing had not been turned on yet.
Ling Wenqing put on his helmet first.
Although the helmet looks black from the outside, it is transparent from the inside. After putting it on, it hardly affects Xie Xuan's vision.
Ling Wenqing: "Come over and pick out your weapons. My suggestion is to take a light weapon, a heavy weapon, and two grenades. But the specifics depend on your own habits. The key is to keep yourself alive."
This sentence was said to Xie Xuan. Zhou Yuanyuan had already chosen the weapon according to her own habits and fixed it in the space specially reserved on the protective suit.
Xie Xuan thought for a moment, then took out a pistol, a flamethrower and two grenades.
Ling Wenqing: "After the mission is over, all weapons must be recovered. Be especially careful that some fields can cause hallucinations. Be careful not to accidentally injure your teammates. However, if your teammates have been completely infected and are being controlled by the field, don't be soft-hearted."
"Attention, Team 320, we have arrived at our destination. Please prepare to disembark."
After the shuttle bus stopped, the door opened automatically.
The sky outside the car was gloomy and it was drizzling.
Ling Wenqing was the first to get off the car. Zhou Yuanyuan gestured for Xie Xuan to walk in the relatively safe middle area.
The 20th Live Pet Exhibition and Sale in District 6 is being held on the 3rd floor of Zone A, 02 Convention and Exhibition Center, 275 Street these days.
While in the car, Xie Xuan also found relevant news reports.
The photo shows neatly arranged transparent cages containing various small animals. The cages are equipped with food bowls, water bowls, and litter boxes, and there are white urine mats underneath.
A sign on one of the cages read, "Purebred rural cats, price, free with a membership card."
Who would have thought that the stray rural cats that were everywhere a hundred years ago would become a luxury item worth five figures a hundred years later?
While Xie Xuan was lamenting the changing fortunes of the world, she couldn't help but touch her lower abdomen.
She sincerely hoped that the parasite this time would not turn the pet cat into a giant Siberian tiger and come up to stab her directly.
The Ecological Bureau is not far from the 02 Convention and Exhibition Center. When Xie Xuan and others arrived, there were still evacuated people walking out.
Most of the people were well-dressed and looked frightened and scared, while a small number of them had frowns and expressions of disgust.
This group of people all have the same characteristics and wear blue and white suit uniforms.
Xie Xuan and the others did not use the same exit as the evacuated residents, and there was a distance of several meters between them.
Zhou Yuanyuan stood behind her and saw the blue and white uniforms mixed in with her. She sighed, "Why are there people from the ecological organization here?"
There was undisguised disgust in Zhou Yuanyuan's tone.
Ling Wenqing, walking ahead, said sarcastically, "They're setting up an exhibition on the second floor of the convention center today to promote their ecological philosophy."
It seems that the overwhelmingly negative comments about ecological organizations online in District 6 truly reflect public opinion.
Xie Xuan couldn't help but ask curiously: "What ecological concept?"
Zhou Yuanyuan: "You've probably heard about the biological weapons they've been promoting lately that promise to resolve the spore infection crisis, right? But do you know what these biological weapons are and what they plan to use them for?"
Xie Xuan shook his head honestly, "I don't know."
Zhou Yuanyuan: "It is said that it is a strain of bacteria that is strong enough to infect the entire District 13. The philosophy pursued by these crazy people is the evolution of the entire population. Through infection, the survival of the fittest will be selected, and only those with special abilities will remain."
Xie Xuan: …
An ecological organization that adheres to such a philosophy is actually vertically supervising the global ecological system. It seems that mankind is about to be doomed.
This time, even Ling Wenqing didn't deny that it was just a rumor. "We can only be thankful that the District Six Ecological Bureau has been strong enough in its stance against the ecological organization. Even if the other twelve districts all fall, I have confidence that District Six will protect the interests of all its citizens until the very end."
When Xie Xuan heard this, she actually felt a sense of pride.
But to be precise, Xie Xuan's homeland before she traveled through time was the original home of District 6, and she has always been a part of District 6.
Zhou Yuanyuan sighed. "It's said that the new Deputy Director of the Ecological Bureau, Si Xun, will be tougher than the previous one. I hope so."
After saying this, the elevator they were riding finally reached the 3rd floor of Area A.
The elevator door opened, and the spacious exhibition center was empty, with milky white mycelium spreading everywhere.
The current spore concentration detected is 25%.
Once the infected form a territory, except for those who are affected by the territory at the beginning, anyone who wants to enter the territory must find an entrance.
Generally speaking, the entrance is where the parasite forms its territory.
The location of the parasite, which serves as the infection center, is very easy to find. It is in one of the booths filled with transparent cages.
Ling Wenqing placed the protective shield device on the cash register in the center of the platform and turned it on. The device quickly generated a transparent film, which continued to expand until it covered the entire three-story exhibition area.
Xie Xuan looked at the rows of empty pet cages and felt a little sad. "Why does this exhibition have to be held in the rainy season?"
