Chapter 184 - Biological Danger, Level Six—World Destruction
Chapter 184: Biological Danger, Level Six—World Destruction
Biological dangers were divided into six levels: Person, Group, Organization, City, Country, and World.
It was a self-explanatory system.
Person: the organism can threaten an individual’s life.
Group: the number of threatened units has been increased to the tens.
Organization: the number of threatened units has been increased to the hundreds or thousands.
City: a city is threatened.
Country: a country is threatened.
World: equivalent to doomsday.
In this world, the most threatening organism was at level five, which was destroying a country.
It was a virus.
Once a human was infected, there was currently no medicine that could treat him. It would be able to take his life within ten minutes.
In recent times, some backward countries had been infected by this virus, and all of them had died at the hands of it.
Although this virus was terrifyingly strong, there were still many limitations.
In modern times, vaccines for such viruses have been developed. As long as one was vaccinated, one would not be infected by the virus.
However, the virus could mutate. If the vaccine were to become ineffective one day, it would be troublesome.
Even so, it could reach the fifth level.
…
At that moment, at the press conference venue, a researcher from Yun Country asked his superior for permission to answer questions from the reporters.
The researcher replied, “Level 6.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was shocked, their eyes filled with terror.
The atmosphere instantly became heavy.
A reporter asked, “Why is it Level 6?”
The researcher thought for a while and said, “The experimental subjects have a special ability—self-replication.”
Self-replication?
Everyone looked puzzled.
The researcher continued, “Everyone should know about viruses! Viruses can replicate themselves rapidly.
“And the self-replication of the experimental subjects is just like the virus.
“According to our latest experimental data, when the experimental subjects father a certain amount of energy, they can replicate themselves.
“The rate at which they can replicate is very short—probably just within a breath.
“And, they don’t just duplicate, each subject can clone up to 10 of themselves within a breath.”
Assuming that their base number was 1,000 and 10 could be duplicated at once, they would instantly reach 10,000.
This was terrifying.
This would not remain constant. They could even start replicating themselves within a minute.
At the press conference this time, the number of experimental subjects announced by the Yun Country numbered more than 300,000.
Not including the ones annihilated by the Xia Country for now. There were so many experimental subjects. Once they started to replicate themselves, it would be terrible.
In addition, the researchers also added perverse abilities related to the experimental subjects.
Experimental subjects would also mutate, but without data to support it, no one would dare to say for sure what they could mutate into.
In any case, the mutated experimental subjects would definitely be stronger than before.
After learning about this, the world was plunged into panic.
All the major international media outlets criticized Yun Country. They said that they had pushed humanity’s civilization to the brink of destruction and ignored life. They had to pay for their own mistakes.
For this reason, the Yun Country did not refute and promised the entire world that they were willing to compensate the countries that had been stricken by the experimental subjects.
As soon as these words were released, New Roe jumped out and released the video of their military resisting the experimental subjects.
Following that, the other small countries also released their videos, all of them demanded compensation from Yun Country.
With evidence, the Yun Country naturally could not deny it. So, on the same day, they transferred compensation over.
New Roe and those small countries did not really put in much effort in resisting the experimental subjects.
The ones truly battling the whole time were the Xia military.
In terms of losses, Xia Country had the most.
To wipe out the experimental subjects, the ammunition consumption was simply astronomical.
More importantly, the bullets that were used to kill the experimental subjects were made with complicated craftsmanship and expensive raw materials.
It would be difficult to replenish stock within a short period of time.
Regarding this, Xia Country did not say a word.
At this critical juncture, they did not lash out at Yun Country.
As a big country, they merely gave them a warning.
They warned Yun Country to clean up their mess.
Of course, the Yun Country naturally did not dare to retort at this moment. On the contrary, they immediately sent out their warships and fighter jets to search for traces of the experimental subjects in the various major water bodies.
But even so, they were still criticized.
…
In addition, some media outlets had analyzed the construction of high walls along the coastline recently based on this matter of experimental subjects going out of control.
Some media argued that building a high wall was necessary and a noble decision.
If the experimental subjects were to invade, the high walls would be able to play a very good defensive role.
During the period when the article was published, many people agreed with them.
At once, there were fewer objections to the construction of the high walls, and the number of supporters grew.
This was a situation that many large countries were willing to see. Without opposition, the construction of the high walls would progress.
…
In the few days after the experimental subjects’ incident, the various countries gradually reported that they had discovered traces of the experimental subjects. The military also quickly jumped into the extermination of the experimental subjects.
With Yun Country’s promise, they were not stingy with their weapons.
In any case, Yun Country would pay for everything in the end.
In the wee hours of the morning, a small country near the sea in the North Continent suffered a calamity.
The group of experimental subjects that came were very organized and had a purpose.
They did not invade from the front and instead climbed cliffs.
This country was relatively backward and did not discover any experimental subjects.
When all the experimental subjects had climbed up the cliff, this country was finished.
As expected, experimental subjects instantly occupied this place without difficulty.
As the saying went, man is the wisest of all living things.
These experimental subjects’ favorite food was humans.
This situation also greatly exceeded Yun Country’s expectations.
After the experimental subjects occupied this small country, they started to eat savagely.
After eating their fill, their bodies began to expand. This was an omen of self-replication.
More and more energy gathered in their bodies. Like a volcanic eruption, their bodies split.
By daybreak, the 30,000 experimental subjects had increased to more than 100,000.
This was a bad start.
Since the experimental subjects could survive in the water, it would be quite difficult to discover them.
As they continued to replicate themselves, it was no longer possible to wipe them out completely.
All the military could do now was to ensure the safety of their own countries.
…
It was mid-November.
There was only some time left for the Martial Arts elimination competition on Storm Island.
Due to the experimental subjects incident that happened midway, the competition was paused for a few days.
After all, the experimental subjects had already spread all over the world. Although Storm Island was very far away from Yun Country, the experimental subjects would arrive sooner or later.
As expected, they came today.
According to the satellite alert, a large number of Experimentals were rushing over. There were probably 10,000 of them, and they would reach Storm Island within the hour.
When the news reached everyone’s ears, it caused quite a bit of panic.
