"Are any of you interested in trying the safe evolution of the T-virus?”Crimson Moon took out a bottle of virus and a bottle of antibiotics and asked them.
"Who wants to try this kind of thing?!! We don't want to become those zombies outside!”Alice said excitedly.
"I told you that the T-virus is evolving safely. It won't turn into a zombie.”Crimson Moon explained with a smile.
"Really?" Alice didn't want to believe it, but Crimson Moon had saved the mercenaries many times, so she couldn't refuse. Besides, Crimson Moon was the research director, so she still asked doubtfully.
"Of course!" Crimson Moon said with certainty," The full name of the 'T-virus' is 'T-virus'. It was a new type of R A virus developed by Dr. Ashford for his daughter, who had a genetic disease and a weak immune system. In order to treat his daughter's illness, Dr. Ashford began to research genetically modified drugs. Later, he focused his energy on viruses. It was only then that he gradually developed a genetically modified virus that could enhance the vitality of human cells. The original intention of the T-virus was good. It allowed human cells to produce extremely strong vitality. Its strength could even allow the body to move after death. Theoretically speaking, he was only one step away from the research of immortality. However, this step was taken in the wrong direction. To be precise, a huge force around him wanted him to take the wrong direction. Therefore, the T-virus weapon was born. Following that was the research of biochemical weapons, zombies, crawlers, hunters, trackers, and the prototype of the T-virus codenamed Survivor. At first, these were used as medicine for treatment. After being purchased by the Parasol Company, they quickly discovered that they had more potential to be used to develop demonic products for illegal biological weapons. Humans who were unable to adapt to the mutation without the immunity would have their skin soften and rot. In the end, they would fall off and become disgusting. At this time, the person was no longer rational and only knew the animal instinct: " Seeking Prey." We call them 'zombies' or 'living deads', and the secondary infection caused by them will cause all kinds of biological mutations. Other than these, there was also a prototype of the T-virus that could enhance one's physique and reaction speed without changing one's consciousness and body. There were also many other things, such as removing some of the restrictions in one's genes.”
Alice and the others could not believe that the T-virus that caused everything outside was originally developed by a father to treat his daughter with a genetic disease and a weak immune system.
"Can you tell us the details of the T-virus?”Alice asked.
Seeing that Matthew Addison and the others were also interested in it, Crimson Moon had no choice but to organize her thoughts and say,""There are four main stages of T-virus infection. As long as you inhale the original T-virus or get bitten or scratched by the carrier, you will be infected. The initial symptoms of the T-virus infection were no different from ordinary minor illnesses. They were just coughing, sneezing, or itching like rashes. This was because it was similar to the human body's inflammation when it was allergic or stimulated.”
"As for the symptoms of the second stage, it is related to the function of the T-Virus itself. The most obvious function of the T-Virus was to 'accelerate the metabolism of a living creature.' In other words, as long as a living creature was infected by the T-Virus, its own metabolism would rapidly increase, and humans were naturally included in this category of living creatures. Once the human body's metabolism increased rapidly in an abnormal way, the most obvious change in appearance would be their skin. The skin of the patient's entire body would turn white, but this white did not mean that their skin was good. It was caused by the gradual accumulation of dead skin cells under the rapid metabolism. That was fine, but the T-virus kept multiplying, which meant that the metabolism was getting faster and faster. When the skin cells could not withstand such a fast metabolism, the patient's skin would begin to soften and rot. In the end, of course, it would fall off and become disgusting.”
"The symptoms of the third stage are more serious. This was because the virus had already begun to erode the cells in the brain, causing the patient's cognitive ability to decrease. Not only his cognitive ability, but even the part of his brain that specialized in rationality and emotions was gradually corroded. Furthermore, due to excessive metabolism, the main body needs a lot of energy to make up for the large amount of energy consumed by metabolism. However, energy can only be absorbed from the outside world, so the appetite of these creatures is greatly increased. As long as they see, hear, or smell the existence of a living creature, they will immediately rush over to kill the prey that they have their eyes on. This is what we call 'berserk'.”
"The fourth stage is the final stage of the zombie form. At this moment, the tissues under the skin of the zombie's body had already begun to rot, emitting the so-called zombie's unique stench. In addition, his movements began to slow down. Except for a few sensory departments in the brain and the life support center of the elongated brain that were still functioning normally, the other parts were almost completely destroyed and rotted. In other words,"only the autonomous nervous system exists, and the rest have long disappeared." At this time, this person no longer had reason and only knew animal instincts: Seeking Prey. Although the size of the skull was no different from that of a normal person, it was almost empty inside. Therefore, sometimes, a light blow could blow up their entire head. It could even crush the head of a zombie with a foot. If it was a normal human head, it would not be so fragile. However, because their brains were almost completely destroyed, their sense of pain could be said to have completely disappeared. Even if they were shot, they would not feel any pain. Thus, they were able to continue approaching us despite being shot continuously. Also, although his vision is gradually disappearing, his sense of smell and hearing have become very sensitive in order to find his prey. As soon as we get close, he will immediately notice our existence and attack us…"
"I have some personal research on the T-virus. Although the company's research had gone astray, it had also increased the potential of the T-virus. If Dr. Ashford had been the one to do the research, the development of the virus would have stopped when he cured his daughter a few years ago. In the end, it would only have strengthened the human body a little. Through my own research, the T-virus can evolve humans and even all living creatures.”
"Evolution?"
"Yes, evolution!" Crimson Moon said with certainty," I've come up with three ways to evolve. Two are for living creatures, and one is for zombies. As for zombies, although they are wandering outside unconsciously, the T-Virus is not stable yet. It mutate very quickly. As long as they can survive the initial stage of adapting to the T-Virus, they will slowly regain their human consciousness as the virus mutate. Of course, some of them will die completely in a few months if they can't survive. They would either develop a new consciousness in their bodies, and when the virus stabilized, the evolution would be completed. They would have a stronger body. Although they could not be like Superman, it was not a dream to dismantle the machine empty-handed. Some lucky ones could even use their mental power in movies.”
" For living creatures that don't become zombies after being infected, they will evolve in two directions. One is to evolve into non-humans. Of course, the definition of humans is actually very vague. This is only relative to you. They can be considered to have evolved into a new species, not something like the Crawlers. They are just failed products of experiments. They lose themselves and become beasts. The correct evolution will evolve into humanoid creatures. They have unlimited possibilities. Their genes are unstable. They could grow countless tentacles on their bodies to bind their prey and absorb the essence of living creatures. They could continuously absorb the excellent genes of other living creatures to improve themselves and evolve, such as evolving fish gills, bird wings, etc. A part of the reason why zombies ate was to eat excellent genes. Most zombies that successfully evolved would walk this path. Similarly, with the perfection of evolution, the T-virus would also stabilize and no longer have the ability to infect. After a period of time, Either the evolution stops and the genes completely stabilize; Or continue to evolve to the high end. However, there was a hurdle to overcome on this path. The T-virus would grow a new brain on the back of the creature. That brain would produce a new consciousness and compete with the original owner for control of the body. Because it was a new consciousness, it only had instincts and could not negotiate. Therefore, it could only kill that brain and let itself take complete control of the body.”
"The first two conditions are too uncertain, and becoming non-human is difficult for ordinary humans to accept. The last condition is acceptable for most people. Humans have great potential, but because human evolution has almost stopped, human genes are like locked by a lock. It is very difficult to open it. This is called the genetic lock. "You should have heard of the story of an old lady lifting a car with one hand and saving her grandson from under the wheels. This is a real fact, but the old lady died soon after. Some scientists found an extremely small amount of a substance similar to adrenaline in her blood. It was this substance that opened the old lady's genetic lock and turned her into Hercules. This substance can only be produced by the human body, and the most important point is that it is highly toxic." Therefore, people with weak constitutions would die, while those with strong constitutions would not pay attention to the opening of the genetic constraint. They would treat the symptoms of spasms as normal after exhaustion, and the genetic constraint would be strengthened over time. Only a very small number of people could skillfully use the power of the genetic constraint, but it was only the power of the first stage. The T-Virus could loosen the lock, making it easier for humans to open it. Once the injection was successful, they would have the power of a first-order genetic lock. Among the six billion people on Earth, there were quite a few who had unlocked their genetic locks, but only a few could actually use them. If they unlocked too many genetic locks and did not handle them properly, their genes would collapse. Not only could the T-virus loosen the locks, but it could also make it easier for humans to adapt to unlocking the genetic locks. As far as I know, there are only two people who have safely evolved with the T-virus.”
"Who exactly are you? " Even if you're the research director of the Hive, you know too much." Matt rushed over excitedly and tried to grab Crimson Moon, but Matthew Addison stopped him.
"What do you mean?" Crimson Moon scratched her head and said," I'm not just the research director of the Hive.”Crimson Moon spread her hands, and the Book of Stars appeared in her hand out of thin air. Everyone was shocked.
" At the same time, I'm also Lilith's executive officer and temporary investigator of the Space Administration. When I came to this world to investigate the level of civilization, I had specially obtained some T-virus to study.”Crimson Moon said.
