Extreme germ phobia

Chapter 79 Already had a plan
Ou Yang was indeed a little confused.

This is the third underground floor, and the two floors above are all reinforced concrete. What kind of plant has such wild roots?

He took a few steps forward, pointing the gun into the door. The beam of light dispelled the darkness, and when he saw the situation inside clearly, he gasped.

Inside the half-open door, a stainless steel flatbed cart was overturned on the ground. A roughly human-shaped object was leaning against the wall. Roots of varying thickness grew out of "his" body, and strands of hyphae grew on the roots, swaying slightly in the light of the tactical lamp.

Like seaweed undulating in the water.

Looking inside, hundreds of freezers are stacked from the ground to the ceiling, with countless roots pushing open the doors and extending in both the upward and downward directions.

Above, slender rhizome branches occupy half the ceiling;
Below, organic matter of unknown composition covered the ground, a thick layer like the legendary fungal mat, which made people wonder whether there were many deadly mutant creatures hidden under the fungal mat.

Ou Yang's heart was beating like a drum, and suddenly a thought came to his mind: Could it be that this place attracted all the infected people nearby?
Previously, the infected were divided into latent, germinal and growing stages. So what stage are these corpses in front of us in?

Are those corpses covered with mushrooms on the ground and these corpses covered with mycelium in front of us the same thing?

He calmed himself down and immediately contacted the ground: "Garrison, I found the morgue!"

"You're in the right direction. Go straight to the end and the computer room is on the left!" Garrison thought he was asking for directions.

"Garrison!" Ou Yang said emphatically, "I think you need to take a look at this place!"

"What do you mean?"

"Literally!" Ou Yang said, "I've found the reason for the high spore concentration. Send down the drone immediately!"

Garrison gave Sanova a questioning look, and the latter nodded: "Something must have happened!"

"Calling Team A, send the drone to the morgue immediately, quick!"

"Group A received!" The UFO immediately released the drone, and the little thing nimbly got into the third floor below ground, flew all the way along the corridor, and soon flew outside the morgue.

The hyphae on the rhizomes float in the wind in the weak air currents.

The camera was aimed at Ou Yang, and only when he made an observation gesture towards the door did the UFO turn the camera towards the door.

The footage was transmitted back to the ground, and when Garrison and Sanova saw the situation in the morgue, they were stunned.

Ou Yang exhaled softly: "Did you see everything? Take your time to study it. I'm going to the computer room!"

After saying that, he walked towards the depth of the corridor. What to do with the morgue was giving Garrison a headache.

He was already starting to feel suffocated and had to rush to the machine room as soon as possible to replace the filter canister.

Fortunately, the door of the computer room was closed.

Although Ou Yang was having difficulty breathing, he remained alert enough. He opened the door and took a step back, only entering the computer room after making sure it was safe.

The reading on the detector dropped rapidly, eventually settling at a moderate level.

Ou Yang took a deep breath, took off his mask to replace the filter canister, put the mask back on, found a corner where he could not get in the way, reported the location to the ground, and continued to communicate with Group A. By repeatedly knocking on the ground on the second floor below ground, he finally determined the exact location of the explosion.

It’s not that Ou Yang didn’t help, but he really didn’t know much about electricity. He couldn’t even tell which one was a generator.

There was a muffled sound, smoke and dust filled the air, and a hole more than one meter wide was blown open in the ceiling. The people in Group A slid down using the ropes.

The four men immediately dispersed and soon found a generator in the corner.

Ou Yang also joined in the fun, but no matter what he did, he couldn't connect the thing that looked like a distribution box with the generator.

Not only that, Group A also found half a barrel of diesel!
A few old Xiaomi people gathered together to tinker with it for a while. They first cut off unnecessary loads, and then twisted a red switch 90 degrees. Ou Yang immediately heard a faint buzzing sound.

Team A reports: "Boss, the generator is started and the central air conditioning is running normally!" "Roger that. Is there enough diesel?"

"It's enough, at least for a few hours!"

"Very good, everyone retreat immediately!"

After returning to the ground, Ou Yang took off his mask and took a few deep breaths.

This thing is so stuffy, it's not meant for humans to wear!

Many Lao Mi looked at Ou Yang at the same time and envied him deeply.

Leaning behind Garrison, Ou Yang saw the screen displaying the image of the rooftop of the medical building. The air conditioner on the top floor had already started running. "How long will it take to reduce the concentration?"

"I don't know, let's wait and see," Garrison said.

Over the next period of time, drones will be sent to the corresponding floors every once in a while to measure the spore concentration.

The rate of decline is not fast, but it has been steady.

Although the conditions were agreed upon in advance, Ou Yang felt that what he did was not worth $120,000. In order to stabilize Garrison's emotions, he suggested breaking the glass on each floor to speed up the air circulation in the room.

Garrison adopted Ouyang's advice. After several rounds of shooting, the glass on each floor suffered varying degrees of damage, and the rate of decrease in spore concentration was significantly accelerated.

About twenty minutes later, the spore concentration on all floors dropped to a low level.

"Group A laboratory, Group B ward, go!" Garrison gave the order.

Max volunteered to join the operation. Garrison thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Let's go to the monitoring room... Yang, come with us?"

Ou Yang sighed, jumped out of the car and prepared to leave: "I knew you wouldn't let me go!"

Garrison walked in front with a forced smile: "I spent $120,000, of course I have to make the most of it!"

Ou Yang rolled his eyes: You are the thing, your whole family is a thing!
"Even if you regret it, there's nothing I can do." He said deliberately.

"It's not my money, why are you regretting it..."

"Team B, in position!" Garrison was interrupted by a voice on the radio, and he immediately replied, "Roger that, search carefully!"

"Don't worry, boss."

Just over ten seconds later, news came that Group A was in place.

There was silence for a while. When they were about to reach the monitoring room, Team B reported that they had completed the search, but did not find any electronic products and were searching other wards.

Garrison sighed helplessly, but his emotions remained stable, as if he had expected this result.

Entering the monitoring room, turning on all the equipment, all the screens on the wall light up.

Garrison kept switching the cameras, and images of groups A and B soon appeared on the screen.

Then he locked onto the picture number on the 7th floor, went back directly to July 5th, and began to look for Emily.

Ou Yang suddenly understood what Garrison was trying to do.

No wonder Group B got nothing, but he was not anxious at all. It turned out that he had a plan in place!
