"During a gene sequencing study of a zombie virus, one of our company's experts unexpectedly discovered that part of the zombie virus's genetic structure, while vastly different from Earth viruses, was remarkably similar to the structure of an alien virus from an extraterrestrial spaceship that our company detected last year. Later, after analysis by our expert team, we concluded that the reason this zombie virus infects so rapidly, exhibits such bizarre symptoms, and is almost ineffective with common drugs and the human immune system is likely related to this part of the alien virus's structure." Lu Wanfeng spoke quickly and urgently, but fortunately, his reasoning was relatively clear, and Qiao Ruida quickly understood what terrifying event had occurred.

"You mean, this zombie virus isn't from Earth at all, but comes from another planet?" Joridar's tone was more serious than ever before.

The sudden appearance of an alien virus on Earth is no small matter. Alien viruses are unique viruses that have multiplied and evolved over billions of years in independent extraterrestrial environments. Their pathogenic mechanisms and immune responses are completely different from those of Earth viruses. Humans have absolutely no immunity to these alien viruses, and common human medications may not be effective against them. An outbreak of an alien virus could, if not handled properly, cause a global biohazard that wipes out all of humanity.

Furthermore, the origin of the alien virus is highly suspicious and warrants further investigation. Last year, the Rida Space and National Space Organization dispatched a small fleet to the asteroid belt and captured some alien spacecraft debris. Later, the research team extracted biological tissue and alien virus samples from these debris. However, these virus samples, being extremely dangerous, have never entered Earth's atmosphere and have been kept on the space station for isolated research; theoretically, there is absolutely no risk of leakage. So, where did the zombie virus outbreak in Mexico come from? Did the virus stored on the space station leak, or have one or more aliens already arrived on Earth and are using the zombie virus to cause trouble?

"Well, the situation might be more complicated than you think. This zombie virus isn't entirely an alien virus; it's a product of the fusion of an alien virus and a native Earth virus. This gives the zombie virus both the susceptibility of native viruses and the super-strong immune escape ability of alien viruses, making it extremely dangerous."

"So, this zombie virus is highly infectious and incurable? Are our virus experts alright? What about the medical team members? Has anyone been infected with the zombie virus?" Qiao Ruida asked with concern. In a sense, Qiao Ruida was a pure nationalist. In his mind, those foreigners, especially Westerners, had always been at odds with China. Whether they died or not was irrelevant. As long as the Chinese, especially his employees, didn't die, then it wasn't a big problem.

"The zombie virus is highly contagious and spreads through various channels. Even with adequate protective measures, some medical personnel still contract the virus. It's strange, really. Dozens of medical teams from around the world have been dispatched to the front lines in Mexico, and almost every team has had a few doctors and nurses infected with the zombie virus. Our Chinese medical team is the only exception. Hundreds of medical personnel participated in zombie virus treatment and research for several days, yet not a single one was infected—it's a miracle." The fact that so many medical staff were infected left Lu Wanfeng deeply shaken. Fortunately, not a single member of the Chinese medical team was infected.

Upon hearing that none of the Chinese medical team members had been infected with the zombie virus, Qiao Ruida relaxed a bit and even joked, "Oh, is that so? Does this zombie virus selectively spread, only affecting white and black people while leaving us yellow people out of the loop?"

"That's not the case. There are also Asians or Chinese people in Mexico who have been infected with the zombie virus. Only the members of our medical team are an exception. I don't know why. Is it because our protection was in place, or because our medical team members have resistance to this zombie virus? I don't know."

"Alright, I hope our medical team members will remain healthy and free from illness in the days to come. Manager Lu, you still haven't told me why you called me in such a hurry."

"I just want to ask, should we report the fact that the zombie virus contains some alien virus genes? Also, should our company develop a specific drug and vaccine for the zombie virus?" Lu Wanfeng voiced his questions, awaiting Qiao Ruida's decision.

"Of course it must be reported. Discovering an alien virus on Earth is no small matter; it could easily lead to a global biohazard. Moreover, the origin of this zombie virus is highly suspicious. Someone on Earth not only obtained a sample of the alien virus but also attempted to fuse it with a native Earth virus. This is a crime against humanity and must be thoroughly investigated. Whether the perpetrator is aliens or a terrorist organization, they must be found and completely eradicated. Research on the zombie virus must begin immediately, sparing no effort in terms of manpower and resources. Only by developing a treatment and vaccine in the shortest possible time can we completely curb the spread of the zombie virus and reduce human losses, especially for us Chinese. Oh, and a reminder: be extremely careful when transporting, storing, and researching the zombie virus. Take utmost precautions. Don't let the virus leak; that would be an unforgivable tragedy."

"Okay, Mr. Qiao, I'll compile the relevant information and report it to the National Health Bureau immediately. The zombie virus is far too dangerous. I suggest conducting related research in the virtual world to ensure absolute safety. I just don't know if it's possible to simulate the zombie virus in the virtual world?"

Qiao Ruida nodded, agreeing with Lu Wanfeng's suggestion, and then said, "Don't worry, the virtual world developed by our company has a complete dimensional engine that can simulate all macroscopic and microscopic things, including all kinds of viruses. As long as you have the complete RNA gene chain of the zombie virus and import the data, you can create a virtual zombie virus in the virtual world. It can be used for various research purposes and is no different from a real virus."

Qiao Ruida put down the phone and let out a long sigh of relief. 2019 was truly an eventful year for humanity on Earth. Whether in this life or the past, we were deeply embroiled in the virus crisis.

Upon receiving the report from Ruida Pharmaceuticals, the national health department attached great importance to it and immediately conducted a thorough investigation of the space station's cryogenic storage cabinets, confirming that the extraterrestrial virus was well-preserved and had not been lost.
