Chapter 912: Laboratory Shock (1)
The laboratory that Chen Xia and Tan Xin talked about was more like an ordinary office than the laboratory in their impression. In particular, the laboratory was located on the top floor of the sixth floor, and one needed to swipe a card to enter on weekdays. Therefore, they could only find the backup power supply of the entire building on the first floor below ground and start the elevator first. However, the noise was too loud and it was easy to attract zombies around. In addition, the backup power supply on the first floor below ground was always managed by the property management, so it was difficult to guarantee whether it was still intact.
After weighing the pros and cons, several people decided to go to the sixth floor through the emergency passage.
"When the company established the laboratory, there was a disagreement with the property management due to contract issues. In addition, there were too many people in the entire building, which was not conducive to the confidentiality of the experiment. Therefore, the boss chose to put the laboratory in this building. Currently, except for the security company on the second floor, the other floors are temporarily vacant." Chen Xia explained.
The four of them arrived at the laboratory on the top floor smoothly. During this period, apart from encountering two ordinary zombies, they did not encounter any evolved zombies. This made Gu Tongwan a little disappointed. He had originally wanted to kill more evolved zombies to obtain advanced crystal cores.
This building is much deeper than it appears from the outside. The floor area of the first floor is at least 600 square meters, and there are independent partitioned laboratories.
The glass door of the laboratory was locked, and there was even a layer of dust on the lock. It seemed that no one had been here for a long time.
Gu Tongwan was very familiar with unlocking the door. Fortunately, the innermost security door of the laboratory had lost its function when the power went out. So after the glass door outside was opened, the four people entered the laboratory smoothly.
Rather than a biological laboratory, this place was more like an electronic technology company. There were neither specimens soaked in various liquid containers as imagined, nor animal corpses. There were only some instruments and equipment that Gu Tongwan could not understand.
Tan Xin's purpose was clear. She went straight into one of the laboratories and said something to Chen Xia. Then she saw Chen Xia hurried to another place that looked like a warehouse. When he came back, he said to Tan Xin, "The backup power supply has been activated. Try it."
Tan Xin sat in front of the computer, and because the backup power supply was activated, the computer was able to turn on smoothly.
The white light from the computer screen shone on Tan Xin's face, covering his handsome face with a layer of pale mist. His slender fingertips tapped on the keyboard. At this moment, no one spoke in the office, only the crisp sound of keyboard tapping could be heard.
After about ten minutes, Tan Xin's lips, which had been tightly pursed, finally relaxed a little.
"All the information has been copied." Tan Xin raised his head and looked at everyone with a serious expression.
"What's going on?" Chen Xia couldn't wait to know the results of the experimental data.
Tan Xin frowned, then said, "The zombie virus is indeed a new type of virus that has spread from abroad. The laboratory currently calls it 'Y virus'. It is known that this virus is only spread among humans. Infected people will undergo different degrees of mutation within 2-72 hours. According to research, there is currently no effective way to contain the virus. Moreover, the longer the virus stays in the human body, the more likely it is to undergo a secondary mutation, which is what we currently know as 'evolution'. The evolved zombies will have stronger bodies and destructive capabilities."
Perhaps because the topic was too heavy, Tan Xin added: "But currently some laboratories have started to speed up the development of vaccines, and our laboratory has established cooperative projects with several domestic laboratories."
Just as Tan Xin finished speaking, a strong fishy smell suddenly came from the air. The smell seemed to come in suddenly, making people want to vomit.
