159 Insurance measures against the virus king (5000 words~)(1/2)
Even when faced with Amherst, who was in so much pain that he kept scratching his skin, Duwei had no intention of ending his life.
This guy who killed tens of thousands of people cannot die so easily.
In Dewey's view, this extremely painful death was just right for Amherst.
He watched quietly from the side as Amherst turned into a bloody man, and finally fell into the dirty blood on the ground.
His body, which had completely lost all vitality, would only occasionally twitch when the virus attacked the nerves.
Only then did Du Wei take any action.
He first wiped off the splattered blood on the mask, and then placed the petri dish containing the virus into a high-temperature-resistant container.
Then he pressed the self-destruct device that had been in the Level 4 laboratory since its construction.
As the red alarm light came on, Du Wei walked into the high-temperature sterilized room to ensure that all viruses were destroyed by high temperature.
And because his level-4 biochemical protective suit has a 300-degree temperature-resistant barrier, he was unscathed.
Then there are three more disinfection procedures to ensure everything is flawless.
Du Wei, who came out last, stuffed the biochemical protective suit and the 1000°C sealed box in his hand into the incinerator.
An incinerator with a maximum temperature of 900°C is enough to eliminate the activity of all viruses.
Du Wei also took advantage of this period of time to confirm that he was not infected.
After all, just because he won't die doesn't mean he won't develop related illnesses.
Brain tumors are the best example.
Since the virus attacks so quickly, if Du Wei is unfortunately infected, he will naturally have a reaction while waiting for the incinerator to incinerate the biochemical protective suit.
Fortunately, there were no omissions in all Du Wei's processes, and this virus king could not overcome the virus's fear of high temperatures.
So until Duwei picked the hot sealed box out of the incinerator, he still didn't show any symptoms.
At this moment, the countdown in the Level 4 laboratory came to an end, and countless flames swept through the messy laboratory.
Eliminate all potentially active viruses.
At this point, the first condition of ambition, the virus that kills the elders, has been prepared.
Of course, Du Wei also figured out how to avoid the spread of the virus - the firewall.
Just trying to build a wall of fire under the elder's nose seems to be a difficult problem.
So Du Wei also has a backup plan, which is to use his own body tissue to develop a vaccine.
In this way, John can complete the virus eradication plan alone even when there is no wind in the Sahara Desert.
It's just that this method cannot be realized in a short period of time by a new virologist. He needs the assistance of relevant talents from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or the former Army Institute of Virology.
In other words, he needs to find Dr. Nancy and Dr. Carter and use their power to develop a vaccine.
Thinking of this, Du Wei carried the airtight box and found Finch, who was restless in the center of the room.
The first thing Finch saw was the silver sealed box in Du Wei's hand.
As someone who lives in the base all year round, he naturally knows what this airtight box is used for.
Thinking again of the four-level laboratory alarm light that had just turned on and the self-destruction scene, Finch asked with some alarm:
"What's this?"
Facing Finch's knowing question, Du Wei placed the sealed box on the table with a smile:
"The newly released virus king only targets viruses that infect humans.
The onset only takes ten minutes, and it spreads in a wide range of ways. Anything you can think of can be its carrier.
And apart from high temperature, nothing else has been found that can destroy its activity.
In other words, unless the global temperature is above 60°C, this thing can destroy all mankind."
Listening to Duwei saying such terrifying things in a relaxed tone, Finch had no time to worry about going out for vaccination.
He suddenly jumped up from his seat, looked at Du Wei seriously and said:
“Is this something made in Amherst?
Is this why you wanted to capture Amherst alive?
So your goal all along has not been to solve the spread of poliovirus, but this, right?
Du Wei, do you know you are playing with fire?!"
Finch has never been a fool. He actually guessed some of the truth when he saw Duwei leading Amherst into the Level 4 laboratory.
It's just that some things are just like the vaccine Amherst handed over. He knows it's useless, but he can't help but want to believe it.
Just like he had been trying to convince himself, Duwei captured Amherst alive to solve the polio virus spreading in New York State.
But it turns out that just like Murphy's law, the more you don't want something to happen, the more likely it will happen.
Just like now.
The sealed box containing the King of Viruses in Du Wei's hand clearly showed Du Wei's true purpose.
Looking at Finch's puzzled eyes, Du Wei didn't feel too much pressure.
He pulled a seat aside and sat down.
Then, while using the software written by Finch to hack into the city surveillance system to find the whereabouts of Nancy and her teacher, he explained to Finch:
"I knew Amherst wasn't going to give a real vaccine, so I gave up on that option from the beginning.
Children who have been infected with the new poliovirus are hopeless. Even if you don't want to confirm it, this is an undoubted fact.
Vaccines are indeed the best way to prevent viruses, but the development of any vaccine has its own time cost.
Even if Amherst really wants to give out a real vaccine, he won't be able to come up with a real vaccine so quickly.
It's always easier to destroy than to repair, I think you know this.
And what Amherst excels at is destruction.
So like I've done countless times, I just used his strengths to the fullest, like you can sit here and be our solid support.
This virus developed by the Elder of the High Table is the ultimate in Amherst's expertise.
Of course, he still has a lot of potential that can be explored, but such a person is destined not to be our fellow traveler.
So I let him die, a painful death, which can be regarded as making up for the children who died because of him.
As for what you said about playing with fire, I admit that this yet-to-be-named virus does have a hint of playing with fire.
That's why I'm sitting here."
As Du Wei hit the confirmation button, portraits of two people and their current locations suddenly appeared on the display in front of him.
Finch was no stranger to the two people in the picture. One of them was Nancy, a former senior researcher at the Army Institute of Virology.
The other is Nancy's teacher, Dr. Carter, who has conducted in-depth research on the Ebola virus.
Combined with the virus in Du Wei's hands, Finch immediately understood that Du Wei was trying to limit the possible risks caused by the virus, so as to gather the corresponding talents to do things for him.
This is indeed what Du Wei is best at.
Put the right people in the right place doing the right things.
And Du Wei was indeed right about the virus and vaccines.
Just like the Ebola virus, this poliovirus with added fragments of the smallpox virus gene has no cure at this stage.
The so-called vaccine is just their self-deception.
Just when Finch fell silent, Rise's figure appeared on the surveillance screen.
Finch didn't have time to ask Duwei what he was going to do next, and limped out quickly.
Even though he understood that there was little hope, he still hoped that he was wrong.
But when he saw Rise, Rise smiled bitterly and took out the needle intact.
After all, he did not choose to find a healthy child and use his life to test the accuracy of the vaccine.
That was never something he could do.
Finch had anticipated, speculated, and regretted this scene, but in the end he breathed a sigh of relief.
As Du Wei said, this vaccine is very likely to be ineffective, and may also strengthen the currently circulating poliovirus.
The current situation can't be considered good, at least it won't get worse.
Finch turned around and looked around. At some point, members of the Salvation Organization appeared at the door of each room.
They all had heavy looks on their faces, because Riese's failure to choose to use the 'vaccine' meant that they had given up the lives of 20,000 or more children.
This is a pain that no one can bear.
So they claim to be a salvation organization, but do they really save the world?
The four words "Salvation Organization" now seem more like a capital irony.
Just when everyone was feeling shaken, Du Wei walked out carrying a silver airtight box.
"Everyone, I'm afraid you have made a mistake.
Most of you have been involved in the action in Rockland County.
So I would like to ask, did Amherst build that hidden and expensive Level 4 laboratory by himself?"
Du Wei paused for a moment, gave everyone a little time to recall, and then continued to ask and answer himself:
"No, what stands behind him is the 'Ndrangheta of the High Table, the Secret Society of Divine Providence of the High Table!
The essence of this new poliovirus epidemic is that the 'Ndrangheta was trying to force the officials of the Beautiful Country to give up the pursuit of their leader Jun Kanzaki.
