American Comics: From Map Editor to Immortal Gods

"If monsters are all this handsome, then I'd like to have a romance between a human and a monster. It's not like I can't be human."

Luo Lin glanced at the crowd discussing, and Lee Eun-yoo smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, they've been terrified these past few days, they're very sensitive, and they get nervous about everything."

"It's okay, I understand."

Luo Lin didn't do anything because of those few words, and instead asked, "Have you not received any outside help all this time?"

Lee Eun-yoo shook his head, disappointed, and said, "We tried to contact the outside world, but for some reason, all signals here are blocked. Maybe the base station was destroyed?"

"We know nothing about the outside world right now, and with the muscle monster blocking the door, there's no chance of escaping."

"We suspect Busan has fallen, otherwise why haven't the police come to rescue us?"

Green House is an old apartment building without an underground garage.

The apartment building also has only one exit.

The muscle monster roams the area, and no one knows where he will appear. He's like a monster from a horror movie; he's huge, but he's always out of the loop.

It always surprises people.

"How could that be? Busan has a pretty good public safety record..."

Thinking of the Stark Expo being attacked by an unknown force, Bingyue Huaxue changed her mind and said, "At least it's better than many small places."

"Did you see any more troops on your way here?" Lee Eun-yoo was very confused.

Yoon Ji-soo interjected, "In fact, we didn't walk here at all; we were teleported here."

"Roland is a powerful magician who can take people freely to all parts of the world."

"I just showed the photo to Rowling, and he led us to the outside of the apartment building in a flash."

"Amazing!"

Lee Eun-yoo looked at Ro-rim with admiration.

Luo Lin then turned his gaze away from the 3D stereoscopic view. "We should leave. Busan is about to fall. If we don't leave now, this place might be attacked by nuclear weapons."

Lee Eun-yoo was startled, "Huh?"

Yoon Ji-soo and Bing Yuehuaxue also panicked.

Everything was fine just a few hours ago, how come it's going to fail now?

"What happened?" Zhao Hailun asked hurriedly, also flustered.

"According to what you just said, there should be a biological laboratory in the suburbs of Busan, but it was affected by the previous alien war, and the virus was leaked as a result."

"The group of people in protective suits behind them were probably preparing to deal with the leaked biological virus, but they clearly failed."

"Therefore, the virus traveled from the nearby suburbs to Green House, turning the surrounding area into a ghost town. It was only because there were muscle monsters lurking nearby that you were not attacked by more zombies or monsters."

"But the virus can infect not only humans, but also animals, and some can even be transmitted through the air during short-distance contact."

“There is a military outpost five kilometers away. Just two hours ago, the military camp was infected and fell into the hands of a biological virus.”

"The virus has now spread throughout the city on a large scale through zombies, monsters, rats, and even water plants."

“Every minute and every second, tens of thousands of people are infected for various reasons.”

"The X virus is alright, but the T virus spreads at an alarming rate. Busan is now experiencing a zombie outbreak, and no one can save it."

As if to prove the truth of what Rowling said, an explosion suddenly came from afar, and thick smoke billowed out, as if foreshadowing the end of the world.

The survivors of the Green House gathered at the window and looked out at the vast Busan.

This pride of South Korea, its largest port city and second largest city, has come to an end.

Because the T-virus has a short incubation period, it can mutate in tens of seconds to minutes, thus successfully defeating the X-virus and quickly taking over the entire city.

However, due to the unique nature of the X virus, even during the incubation period, individuals infected with the X virus can increase their immunity to the T virus.

However, T-virus infected individuals will prioritize attacking X-virus infected individuals, and even muscular monsters will fall under the massive zombie horde.

Lee Eun-yoo and Yoon Ji-soo turned pale; they couldn't understand why Busan had become a thing of the past.

"It must be Umbrella and South Korean biopharmaceuticals that are behind this!"

“I heard that they jointly built an international medical research institute in the suburbs of Busan, specializing in some terminal diseases such as cancer, leukemia and AIDS.”

"They also select volunteers from outside the community and choose people with special antibodies or those who are poor through the rescue station to participate in certain experiments."

"No wonder I've never heard of any volunteers returning. Now that I think about it, those volunteers have all become subjects of biochemical virus experiments!"

Lee Eun-yoo said in despair, then suddenly remembered something and grabbed Rolin's hand, "You're a magician, can you stop all this?"

Rowling thought for a moment, "I can destroy all of this, at least so that people won't have to suffer so much when they die."

If it is just an infected person who has not yet developed symptoms, Rolin can use the Horse Talisman to remove the virus.

However, if the body has already been completely taken over by the virus, even a horse charm will be useless.

Because the virus has completely destroyed human cells and killed brain activity, the virus itself has taken over human brain activity.

Even if the virus inside the zombie is cleared using the horse talisman, all that's left is just a corpse.

The 677X virus didn't seem as domineering as the T virus, but after observing it through a 3D view, Rowling discovered that it was, in some ways, even more domineering than the T virus!

Because X-toxin not only affects the physical body, but is also influenced by human desires and obsessions.

It no longer just infects the host physically, but also forcibly modifies the infected person's consciousness!

Even special infected individuals who have overcome their own desires and are able to move in human form, such as the original protagonist Cha Soo-hyun.

They appear to be new humans, but in reality, they are just monsters in human skin, somewhat similar to Hulk and Bruce Banner.

But in reality, it is more troublesome than the latter.

If one is not careful, human consciousness can be completely taken over and eroded by the monster's consciousness.

Perhaps the Tiger Talisman can create more stable special infected individuals.

But then again,

Why did Rowling use precious talismans to help them?

The same principle applies to the horse charm.

Unless each person is given a horse charm, even if the horse charm helps them clear the virus from their bodies, it doesn't mean they won't be reinfected.

Moreover, the T-virus has an extremely short incubation period, leaving no time for treatment.

It's impossible for Luo Lin to rescue everyone in the city one by one.

It can be said,

After the virus broke out on a large scale in Busan

There is no way to save this city.

Even if Rowling doesn't make a move,

The Avengers and even the United Nations would absolutely not allow this city to exist.

Based on Rowling's understanding of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, within an hour at most, once it is determined that Busan is beyond saving, dozens or even hundreds of nuclear bombs will wipe the city off the map.

Compared to nuclear radiation, biological and chemical viruses are truly the most difficult to defend against.

Furthermore, the nuclear radiation originated from South Korea; as long as the virus hasn't spread abroad, that's a good thing.

Chapter 152 What is "whitewashing"? I'm a professional.

Luo Lin's words terrified everyone, including Lee Eun-yoo.

"What about the Avengers? Aren't they the most powerful superpowered team under the United Nations?"

"The country won't abandon us, right? It definitely will, after all, Busan is an international metropolis!"

"Surely we don't have to destroy the entire city of Busan?"

"Damn it, I know! Those higher-ups must want us to shut up and cover up the truth about what happened in Busan. They'll nuke us! We have to get out of here immediately, as far away as possible!"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Our country is the world's number one superpower, a cosmic empire, with the world's most powerful military. A mere virus infection cannot possibly defeat our army!"

Panic began to spread among the crowd.

They struggled to survive for half a month in this isolated and helpless apartment building.

Instead of rescue, what awaited them was the end of the world.

They clearly defeated the Martians, the Reaper civilization, and the Cybertronians.

The national leader has even proclaimed on several occasions that he will lead the Korean Empire to the moon and Mars, and become the overlord of the solar system and the Milky Way.

A few days later, a biohazard outbreak occurred, and Busan was about to be destroyed?

Who knows, even the Korean Empire might be gone?

"Damn it, if my Cradle of Life technology can be completed, nanotechnology might be able to reverse the viral infection process."

Zhao Hailin looked dejected; she was not yet a key scientist in the Age of Ultron who had developed the Cradle of Life.

Even with funding from Rowling, it would still take at least two more years before a breakthrough in nanotechnology is possible.

When Lee Eun-yoo heard about the Avengers, he looked over and said hopefully, "Where are the Avengers? They have the smartest Tony Stark and Dr. Bruce Banner."

"Can they develop a serum for the virus?"

Rowling shook his head and said, "I've already notified the Avengers, and they're on their way. But forget about the virus serum."

"Don't expect to develop a virus serum in the next few months."

Umbrella headquarters may have T-virus serum, something they've been researching for decades.

But as international pharmaceutical giants, getting them to comply isn't so easy.

And X poison

Rowling suspected that this thing was not a product of Earth.

I don't know where Umbrella and their crew got the X virus.

In Rowling's view, the X virus was even more terrifying than the T virus.

Because as long as you are human, you have desires.

The mode of transmission is unknown, and if an infected person carries the virus to other cities, it could trigger a catastrophe.

Think of the virus from the 1920s; it infected almost 95 percent of the population.

If it were X-drugs...

If 95 percent of the population turns into monsters, the remaining people, even if they manage to avoid viral infection, will find it difficult to organize an effective resistance to eliminate the monsters.

The best solution would be a large-scale purge.

No amount of maternal instinct is advisable.

Otherwise, it could lead to the extinction of humanity, just like what happened to Cheng Xin.

As he spoke, Roland waved his hand, creating a teleportation array.

"Let's go, it's not safe here anymore."

Luo Lin has no intention of getting involved in this matter; this crisis is a man-made disaster.

The alien invasion leading to the leak was merely an external factor; the real internal factor lay with the developers of the bio-virus and the South Korean regime.

If the surrounding area is evacuated immediately after a virus leak and the area is repeatedly washed, the virus will be unable to spread further.

However, the local government chose to cover it up.

The cleaning power is also insufficient.

This led to the fall of Busan.

This is already the best result.

On the darker side, during the period of virus leakage, were there other virus carriers who traveled to other cities or even countries by plane, train, or ship?

Busan is, after all, the second largest city in South Korea, with a large flow of people entering and leaving the country.

Perhaps, unbeknownst to many, the virus had already been carried to other areas by various means of transportation.

Next, all countries around the world will need to conduct a very serious internal self-examination.
