The legend of Tiga

Chapter 2233 The First Infected Body

Sphia Sphere, Sphia Vanguard, Sphia Virus, Original Sphia!

There were a lot of Sphias, it was like a Sphia meeting and all the families gathered together.

But when they reunite, it is humans who suffer.

When you don't know who is strong and who is weak, raising Gu is a good way to distinguish the strong and the weak. But if you are in a Gu pot and are surrounded by a bunch of vicious Gu, that would be a very bad thing.

And now, the earth has been turned into a cup, and these Sphias are mixed together, competing for the title of the strongest 'Sphias'.

They fight for supremacy and humans suffer!
It's so hard to stretch!

"It's possible that the Earth is really being used as an arena."

Horii sighed at this.

The situation is stronger than us and we have no control over it.

Unable to resist, one can only accept it and then survive in the cracks.

Although this gap is quite wide when Tiga holds up the sky.

"Maybe the flat ring is surrounded by ropes, and the three-dimensional earth is replaced by a cover."

Chiba Makoto sat on a chair against the wall, chatting with Horii and the others. At first, he found it quite novel to watch them doing experiments, but he got bored after watching it for a long time.

I could barely understand what penetration, polymer membrane, and nano-replacement meant, but I had no idea what they were used for. But when Horii, Nakajima, and Agamus became more and more enthusiastic in their discussion, the terms changed to topology, molecular beam epitaxy, optogenetics, attosecond pulses, and superconducting quantum interference, and I felt completely overwhelmed.

I didn't understand it, but I was shocked.

Although it is boring, the reason why I stay here is simple: protection.

The promise made by Chiba Makoto at the staff meeting was not just talk, he really wanted to protect.

The reason why it is protection rather than guarantee is because Sphir is extremely dangerous, a very and special danger. Even the highest level of biological protection currently provided by mankind cannot make people completely at ease.

Because Sphia's parasitism is too unreasonable. It can parasitize organic matter as well as inorganic matter, and it can quickly change its properties and turn it into a monster.

Things like this are much more powerful than traditional viruses.

Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of the scientists studying Sphia, Chiba Makoto stayed in the laboratory so that if any problems occurred, he could take action immediately, thus protecting the safety of these extremely valuable scientists to the greatest extent.

You know, the progress of human society is driven by a minority of people, and the development of science and technology is also the masterpiece of a minority of people.

Although the total number of human beings is large, the number of scientists is extremely small. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are one in a million. There are even fewer top scientists, and each of them is rare to come by in a thousand years.

Just look at the universes of Gaia and Aguru. The Earth, sensing the crisis, deliberately gave birth to a group of talented scientists, and only a few hundred Alchemy Stars were born, while the world's population is eight billion. Looking at this ratio, you can see how valuable top scientists are.

This time, in order to achieve a major breakthrough in Sphia research as soon as possible, TPC convened the world's top biological experts and scholars to launch research on Sphia.

If these people were lost, it would be no exaggeration to say that humanity would stagnate in biology for at least twenty years or even longer. The most important thing is that there would be no possibility of solving the Kesphia problem in the short term.

Therefore, nothing must happen here, especially since Agamus is still here, we have to be even more careful.

Although it is highly likely that Agamus will not cause any trouble because of his hometown and his wife, one should never be safe from the unexpected, and this risk cannot be taken at all.

Based on various considerations, Chiba Makoto personally took charge, just in case and in case of any unexpected event.

But sitting there is no matter how boring it is.

What I can understand is that it is centrifuged, filtered through a polymer membrane, tested, and then centrifuged again.
It goes on and on, and there are other operations as well, but I just don't know what they do.

It feels fresh at first, but you get tired of it after watching it for too long. However, this is a laboratory and there is nothing fun to do. You can only sit there bored and cannot be distracted to do other things, lest something happens and you won’t have time to react immediately.

These are all precious treasures, and there can't be any mistakes.

The focus is on Agamus.

I don't know if he was really persuaded, but Agamus worked very hard these days. He was the first to arrive and the last to leave. Even after repeated persuasion, he was reluctant to leave the laboratory.

At first, Horii had doubts about Agamus, but he no longer had them in less than half a day, because he learned so much from Agamus. The difficult problems that he couldn't figure out in the past were now answered in just a few words from Agamus. It was like a sudden enlightenment. After only a few days with Agamus, Horii felt that his cognition had reached a higher level, and the sparks of inspiration that burst out were almost as numerous as fireworks.

If he hadn't been busy studying Sphia, Horii would have wanted to go back to his laboratory to verify this burst of inspiration.

In fact, if you really think about it, Horii is not dumber than Agamus. What he lacks is just a broader vision and corresponding knowledge.

Just like the smart people in ancient times, when they came to the modern era, they were ignorant at first, but when they understood the modern situation and learned a lot of knowledge, they would immediately be ten miles ahead of ordinary people.

To put it bluntly, scientific and technological progress is the accumulation of knowledge. Ancient people simply did not accumulate enough knowledge, not because they lacked IQ.

Horii is at this stage now. Facing Agamus, the 'man of the future', he is eagerly absorbing the 'future' knowledge and benefiting a lot from it.

Science is often just a layer of window paper. As long as you find the right position, you can break it in one go. The various high-tech instruments invented by humans and the many particle colliders built are actually looking for the "window paper".

Let’s take a well-known example, the light bulb.

As early as 1801, chemist David discovered that platinum filaments would glow when electricity was passed through them. However, it was not until 1879 that Edison created the first light bulb that could glow for a long time. However, it was costly and expensive to produce. It was not until 1906 that tungsten filaments could be manufactured cheaply that stable tungsten filament bulbs became widely popular.

In this century, countless talented people have been looking for and testing materials that can emit light stably, for a long time and at a low cost. But if someone could "travel" back to the past with the technology to make cheap tungsten filaments, it would save a hundred years. At this moment, Agamus is playing such a role, telling you the "answer" directly. You don't need to look for the most suitable material in a haystack. How much time and energy can be saved?

Horii has sighed more than once that if there were more Agamus, human technology would definitely advance at a rapid pace.

You should know that the reason why humans were able to have a technological explosion in the early 21st century was that at the end of the last century, they discovered and recovered many UFOs outside the earth, and by analyzing these spacecraft, they obtained a large amount of advanced technology.

It was that wave of technological explosion that enabled human technology to advance rapidly, enabling the construction of a series of high-tech products such as the Victory Eagle and Atlantis, and supporting mankind's advancement into the universe and the development of new field plans.

This fully demonstrates how great changes advanced technology can bring. In Horii's eyes, Agamus is now a mobile database filled with various advanced technologies. Compared with the recovered aircraft, it is more comprehensive and systematic and can be quickly absorbed and applied.

This is such a treasure!!!

"."

Chiba Makoto is not a scientist, but he also knows that technology is the primary productive force. Seeing Horii's eyes shining when he said this, it seems like he wants to pry open Agamus' head and take out everything inside. It can be seen how attractive advanced knowledge is to him. The desire for knowledge has overcome the worry about Agamus, and he is willing to die in the evening to hear the truth.

Although there were many small episodes, the research on Sphia was proceeding in an orderly manner, but the progress was not great, just like a stuck progress bar. No matter how I moved the mouse or typed on the keyboard, there was no progress, until...
"What? A person suspected of being infected with the Sphia virus was found in the Metropolitan Hospital?"

Chiba Makoto suddenly jumped up from his chair, and his voice echoed in the laboratory, causing almost everyone to stop what they were doing and turn their heads to look over.

Horii didn't even have time to take off his mask. He hurried over and waved his hand across the sealed glass, shouting, "Chiba, what did you just say? Someone is infected with the Sphia virus?"

Agamus, on the other hand, looked normal, showing no surprise at all. He walked over slowly and said, "It's inevitable after all."

He was confused about why the Sphia virus did not infect humans but instead infected inexplicable and strange things. After all, on the planet Bazit, the Sphia virus spread very violently, so why did it suddenly wilte when it came to Earth?

It's just that time is tight and tasks are heavy, so I don't have time to study this.

It is actually very late now that people have been infected with the Sphia virus.

But it is extremely bad news for mankind, because there is still no vaccine for Sphia, let alone an antidote. Once the Sphia virus spreads on a large scale, the earth may become a hell on earth like the second Bazit Planet.

By the time Horii changed out of his protective suit, Chiba Makoto had also received the patient's photo, and at first glance, the Sphia logo was clearly visible.

The smooth silver-gray fish scale texture reflects a distorted metallic luster under the light, giving a feeling of laundry detergent bubbles in the sun. It is quite nice when viewed alone, with a kind of artistic hazy beauty.

But if this thing happens to grow on a person's body, it would be very scary. It is definitely a horrible disease that makes people afraid to see it and avoid it.

What is even more disturbing is the name next to the picture: Shan Shang Yi Ye.

A survivor of the recent trash can incident.

It's hard not to connect the two things.

At this time, Horii also changed out of his protective suit and hurried over. When he saw the picture, his heart completely sank.

The Sphia virus has once again extended its evil hand to humans, and things are developing in the most serious direction.

"Let's go over and have a look."

Having said that, everyone stopped caring about continuing the experiment and all rushed to the hospital to see this first Sphia patient. Everyone's expression was very serious, and their brows were locked, and they couldn't relax at all, because they were knowledgeable and understood a lot, and they knew the seriousness of the matter better than ordinary people.

A virus needs to change itself, or mutate, from one species to another, just like a racing car that needs to change tires if it wants to run faster on different roads.

However, Sphia is an unconventional virus that can even infect inorganic matter and cause it to mutate. Now that it has spread to humans, it means that it has broken through the body's immune defenses. Then, I am afraid...
hiss!
It’s scary to think about it.

But when I arrived at the hospital and saw the first Sphia patient with my own eyes, my heart, which had already sunk to the bottom, was chilled to the bone.

This unique feature is undoubtedly Sfia.

The patient's body was covered with large patches of hard, scaly-like substances. They were not as dark as scabs, but were very smooth and reflected light.

But when this light shone into people's eyes, they only felt a chill in their hearts and trembled all over. Even medical staff who were used to seeing life and death cases could not help swallowing their saliva when faced with such a strange illness.

"."

Horii stared at the patient in the room through the thick sealed window.

Although I have heard about the tragedy on Bazit Star many times, it was only when I actually saw it that I realized what kind of hell it was on earth.

Close your eyes and imagine that the streets are full of strange people with fish scales all over their bodies.
"Pharmacological tests are currently underway to see if there are any drugs that can have an effect."

The hospital director was reporting on their efforts. After discovering that the patient showed symptoms, they immediately reported it and blocked an entire floor. All medical staff who had contact with the patient were isolated to minimize the spread.

"It's useless. The Sphia virus didn't originate from him, but was infected from the outside world." Agamus said softly, not optimistic about these preventive measures at all.

At the beginning, Bazitxing did more than this and the measures were more stringent, but it was of no use and no one who was infected escaped.

"But there must be a sequence. Not everyone is infected at the same time, which means the Sphia virus is not invincible." Horii said decisively.

If the Sphia virus is really invincible, then the people of Bazit should have been wiped out long ago, and there would be no survivors. The fact that there were still people on Bazit before Agamus left shows that the Sphia virus is not invincible, and it is impossible to quickly transform the host in a very short time like the Sphia Sphere and Sphia Vanguard.

All these indicate that the Sphia virus still has to follow some basic principles of viruses. If it follows them, it will definitely be able to detoxify.

"Once enough samples are taken, I'll try using light." Chiba Makoto had used light to remove the Sphia mutation on Agamus before, and now he was going to help this person.
