The mother star secretly transformed itself from us

Chapter 2167
118B Airport Street, the streets are deserted.

The rapid reaction force composed of the base's three-defense, security and infection prevention departments has surrounded the entire Airport Street, and the expensive and specialized ship-borne force field generator, which is sufficient to shield Li Cang's three-phase power, has completely isolated this area from the outside world at all costs. The hum of energy-matrix weapons has changed from dull to sharp and pleasant, the electric current of the capture net has crackled, and occasionally there will be the unpleasant roar of the machine soul restrained by the silencer and repulse device of the sniper rifle.

This street can be regarded as the family compound of the 118B Airport, where more than 3 airport managers and workers live permanently, and thousands of vendors operate their businesses. Nowadays, almost all of them are here, wandering aimlessly, swept up by the tide composed of all kinds of tiny, distorted, hybrid insects that are randomly pieced together.

They, or them, it doesn't matter, in short, they did not show excessive aggression. Unlike the high efficiency, energy saving, and mechanized and programmed high execution shown by almost all insects, these infected people and the strange insects weaving silk webs that filled the streets and alleys of the airport seemed to have no clear purpose and were just wasting energy in vain.

But considering that all those infected by them are Strippers, Betrayeres, Subordinates and Subordinate-like Beings with physiques far superior to those of ordinary humans, this is undoubtedly a second recurrence of the corpse infection at the beginning of the Cataclysm, and the comeback of version 2.0 will truly evoke the deepest pain and fear in the hearts of everyone who has gone through that period.

"Deputy Commander Zhao, multiple isolation measures have been prepared. Please give us instructions on the next steps?"

"Wait!"

"wait?"

Zhao Yang exhaled a breath of foul air, his brow twisted into an ugly shape: "Clear all those who show aggressive and unstable factors, strictly prohibit any direct or indirect contact, everyone check the force field generators they are equipped with every 15 minutes, and then, wait!"

"Difficult!" Tao Hongben's eyes were redder than when he came out of the meeting the night before, and the bloodshot looked like it had broken out, almost staining most of the whites of his eyes red. "They no longer have 'qi', at least, they don't have much human qi. I think this state is difficult to restore with vaccines or other means. What has been damaged is their foundation, origin and spirituality as human beings. Without those things, they can only live as beasts that act completely according to instinct, or, it is very likely that they no longer have instincts. They are what we often call soulless walking corpses, muddleheaded and doing nothing, but they will never stop."

"The entire base has been put under martial law. All airports have stopped operating. The ban will not be lifted until the cause of the insect infestation at Airport 118 is found. Lao Tao, why do you think the insect infestation only broke out here?"

"I don't understand." Tao Hongben stuffed a low-profile bare-car version of the "Ginseng Yangrong Pill" developed by Goldfish Pharmaceutical into his mouth. He choked and swallowed the pill, which was so hard to eat that the old man rolled his eyes and gritted his teeth in extreme pain. "My ability is very limited and one-sided. Although people have their own auras, mountains have their own shapes, and beasts have their own shapes, insects, the blood and qi of these things are chaotic and obscure, and they are not as simple and pure as humans usually think. Therefore, I can't do anything. Moreover, the current force field shields and isolation measures of the base may not be able to completely interrupt the transmission chain of insect infection. My suggestion is that it is better to relieve than to block. If possible, try to speed up the injection process of pan-human growth promoter. As long as the physical resistance is improved, all problems will be solved without attack."

"You also know that stuff is poison to people with a physique of 10c or even 20c or below, right? The adaptation period is extremely long!" Zhao Yang muttered, "Besides, what I said doesn't count. The base is so large and has such a terrifying population base. No matter how many Destiny Coins there are, they are not enough to fill it. The production cost and resource requirements of Pan-Human Growth Promoter are a cesspool. There is simply not that much!"

Tao Hongben spread his hands and said, "Comrade, please be a little more utilitarian and snobbish. Don't just think of taking the blame for anything that happens. Our ancestors taught you to share the wealth with the people. Don't you understand?"

"You mean to let ordinary people bear the cost themselves? That's not good. That's not okay."

"The socialist giant babies that people on the forum keep scolding are the ones that are spoiled by people like you!" Tao Hongben said: "There is no free lunch in the world. You have to at least pay a large part of the burden. People, after all, have to be responsible for their own choices!"

Zhao Yang scratched his head: "That makes sense, I'll get the old man's entire professional team out right now!"

"Boss!" "What's wrong?"

"Navy Port No. 16 is gone."

"What the hell??"

"Navy Port No. 16 discovered signs of insect infection 25 minutes ago, and activated the self-destruction program 11 minutes ago. The blast wave is visible to the naked eye within 10 kilometers. As far as I know, our comrades stationed there have not found any signs of survivors!"

------

When the news reached Li Cang and others here, there were already 27 quarantine zones due to large-scale outbreaks of insect-like infections, and the death toll from the disaster exceeded 100,000. Moreover, the number of 100,000 almost purely refers to the number that the authorities had to deal with. As for the broader definition of death, it is probably more than one million.

Conscience is something that only the young lady has on Sky Island. Even Li Leisi just frowned and said, "Ha, everyone who has played the game knows that the pig farming team is even the easiest to kill~"

"I have tried my best to persuade you, and now you feel the pain, but it's too late!" Lao Wang said, "It's just natural selection, Teacher Cang, what do you think?"

Unexpectedly, Li Cang stood up and said, "I'm going back to the base!"

"?"

Lao Wang and Li Lasi stared at each other for a long time without being able to figure out what was going on. As for Li Cang's relationship with the base, it was impossible to feel pity for his misfortune, but it was a bit unfair to hate him for not fighting back. This kind of bastard shouldn't be like this. What kind of person would he be desperate enough to do?
"No, what does it mean? Why don't I understand?"

"I don't know."

"Is there a possibility that this guy is in a hurry to recycle the matrix while it's still hot?"

"What an idiot! You've been misled by Li's nonsense. Li Cang said that they could get one-fifth of the matrix in the end. That was to provoke the base. The [First Encounter] plan came to nothing, and you actually believed him. A living person infected by insectoid is worth less than an alienated life with edited blood. What does Li Cang want that thing for? Is he really going to use it as firewood?"

(Note: See Chapter 2067, "The Dogs All Shake Their Heads After Hearing This", and Chapter 2068, "First Encounter")
"Putting aside the irrelevant details like whether or not to believe it, the main thing is that this bitch is really capable of doing such a thing!"

Li Leisi nodded: "That's right."
