Steel Battleship! Long An Guo's Shock!
Looking across the wasteland, there are at least eight thousand, if not ten thousand, Official Shelter belonging to China.
Any shelter director with a clean record and a willingness to shelter civilians can enter without any barriers, as long as they submit an application to designated personnel and provide some information.
The "no threshold" here means that you only need to have more than 50 members in your shelter.
Setting such conditions not only stabilized the restless morale and discipline of the wasteland in the early stages in another way, but also ensured that orders could be disseminated through official communication at critical moments.
According to Lu Yongyi's current introduction, this so-called Dragon Flag Shelter is the strongest among all the Official Shelter.
Without a doubt, they definitely had the perfect timing, location, and people! After a moment's thought, Su Mo replied with an "OK" gesture to Lu Yongyi, but did not immediately add him as a friend to start a conversation.
Instead, he went up to the Captain's Cabin first and tidied up his words.
Human authorities conducted three phases of experiments before releasing this Biological Specificity Inhibitor.
Therefore, the strength of the alien race will feed back into this point, and it will manifest within three or four days. There's no reason why they wouldn't be able to detect it.
However, since humans have been unable to detect this negative effect, it means that either the inhibitor has undergone some strange reaction in seawater, or there is a problem with the experimental data.
After a while, looking at the brief list of key words already written on the white paper, Su Mo went through it again.
This time, after sorting things out, Su Mo didn't wait any longer. Instead, he opened the Game Panel and selected to add a friend.
One second!
No, it should be that there is no interval!
Almost the instant Su Mo sent the friend request, the other party accepted it, as if they had been waiting on the friend list all along; the speed was frighteningly fast.
At the same time, before Su Mo could speak, the man named Long An Guo sent his greetings first.
[Long An Guo: Hello, Director Su!]
In his wording, Long An Guo used the title of Director Su.
This greeting surprised Su Mo slightly, but a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
After thinking for a moment, Su Mo did not reply or try to hide what was happening in the Captain's Cabin. Instead, he went directly to the back and made a video call.
Given the current situation, it's too difficult to communicate clearly through text alone! Only face-to-face conversations, setting up a proper meeting, can make the strongest official shelter understand the current situation and then mobilize all official resources to call on human survivors to take action.
On the other end, Long An Guo did not hesitate at all, and the call was connected in an instant.
The connection made three beeps, based on Su Mo's long-standing experience with phone calls.
He knew that the two were currently about 5,000 kilometers apart, but less than 10,000 kilometers apart.
Considering that the Hope is currently located in Fifth Sea Area, which is in the middle of the entire war zone.
So the location of the Dragon Flag Shelter has been solved! However, before Su Mo could ponder the deeper meaning of these locations, the buzzing sound of the video call gradually disappeared, and in its place appeared Long An Guo's imposing face in the center of the screen.
At first glance, he was a middle-aged man who looked to be around forty-five years old. He had a square face and two deep wrinkles on his forehead.
However, at this moment, because of the smile on Long An Guo's face, those two wrinkles, like a mustache, softened the seriousness of his square face and added a touch of gentle friendliness! "Hello, Director Long!"
As expected, upon seeing the almost uncontrollable shock in Long An Guo's eyes after the video call connected, Su Mo smiled and took the lead in greeting him.
Every time Su Mo tries to find time to renovate the captain's Captain's Cabin of the Hope, a whole host of troubles always comes up, disrupting his plans.
Even now, the entire Captain's Cabin retains its original steel style, looking rugged and untamed.
But this style, which would be ridiculed as "Syrian" on Earth, has become the best symbol of a person's strength in the current wasteland.
With everyone currently on wooden boats, others may not know what Steel Battleship represent, but Long An Guo, sitting on the Dragon Flag, understands very well!
At the same time, he understood that this wasn't an unintentional exposure by Su Mo, but a deliberate display of power! Steel, a ship—thinking of the previous Dongfeng-17, if it were equipped with some supporting weapons, then this Steel Battleship on this wasteland would truly be able to come and go freely, and no creature could stop it! "Hello, hello, Director Su!"
In a moment of distraction, after seeing the smile on Su Mo's lips and the subtle reminder from the person next to him, Long An Guo immediately realized what was happening and hurriedly said.
Unlike Lu Yongyi, Long An Guo's actions essentially brought the two of them to the same level.
In other words, through Long An Guo's attitude, Su Mo could roughly guess the current attitude of the entire human elite towards him.
Very friendly!
Nodding, Su Mo skipped the formalities and got straight to the point. "Director Long, we don't need the pleasantries today. I'll get straight to the point."
"Regarding the Biological Specificity Inhibitor we administered last night, I'd like to know if we encountered any unusual biological experimental results during the first three phases of trials?"
Upon hearing this, Long An Guo was taken aback, and the smile on his face quickly faded, replaced by a serious expression.
"Our Biological Specificity Inhibitor underwent a complete three-phase trial before its use. Moreover, these trials were not conducted by Dragon Flag alone. Currently, six large shelters across the wasteland are involved in this project. In our sample trials, nearly 30,000 aliens underwent the complete biological experiments, along with 2,000 volunteers and 3,000 Mutated Creature."
"Among the data we've obtained, there are quite a few results about anomalous biological experiments, but they all occurred in other races. We humans have never encountered anything like this before, so you can rest assured!"
Since it concerned a major event for all humanity in the wasteland, Long An Guo was very cautious. As he spoke, he instructed his subordinates to bring out a complete data report.
However, he clearly misunderstood, placing only one copy of the human experiment results in the image for Su Mo to view.
The results of the experiments on the alien race were set aside and not taken seriously.
After glancing at the data on the report, Su Mo shook his head. "Director Long, I'm not talking about the results of our human experiments. I want to see the abnormal data on the alien races. According to my intelligence channels, our experiment this time has probably gone wrong in terms of direction, and we're in big trouble."
"If this trouble is not handled properly, less than 1% of humanity may survive. I'm not exaggerating; this disaster is just two days away!"
Upon hearing this, Long An Guo on the other side clearly showed a look of astonishment, but as the director of Longqi, his reaction speed was extremely fast.
Instead of pondering the meaning behind Su Mo's words, he directly instructed the people around him to spread out the experimental data of the alien race on the table.
After adjusting the camera angle, and relying on the extremely high-definition image, Su Mo quickly began analyzing the data from the first report, reading ten lines at a glance.
"February 3rd, Wasteland Time: Humanity's first large-scale alien biological experiment, Location: Polar Bear Shelter, Participants: 320 aliens (12 races)"
"Concentration in this test: 0.03"
"Experiment results: All 268 alien races were affected to some extent within 15 seconds of receiving the inhibitor, and lost all their abilities within 30 seconds. The remaining 52 alien races were all turned into mummies within one minute, and no alien race escaped."
Outcome: Detained under observation
"February 3rd, Wasteland Time: Humanity's Second Large-Scale..."
From the first large-scale human experiment onwards, more than thirty experiments have been conducted, and no problems have been found in any of them.
The experiment continued until February 18th, when the first anomaly was born out of 122 human experiments.
This is a group of mutated Fire Spider Race. Their strength is weak; if placed on the alien race's panel, their strength rating would probably not exceed 0.1.
But it was precisely this kind of creature that cast a shadow over the experiment.
After receiving the experimental drug, their strength weakened like that of the other alien races. However, one fire spider, after becoming weaker, went berserk and launched an attack on the Fire Ant Race next to it.
And with each of his own kind he devours, his strength will recover by one point.
After devouring twenty-six of his own kind, his strength returned to its previous level, and it continued to increase as he devoured others.
Strangely, when it had eaten sixty of them, its strength rapidly declined, even becoming weaker than before.
This offended his own kind, and his death was gruesome. He was attacked by the other fire spiders almost instantly.
The other spiders that devoured the fire spider did not become stronger as the researchers had predicted; they remained the same as ordinary aliens, with no change in their abilities.
The results of this experiment were shared with other large shelters.
Following the experimental sample from this experiment, other shelters conducted the same test, but failed to obtain consistent results.
Throughout the entire experiment, Su Mo did not observe any alien race whose abilities would regenerate within a few days after disappearing during the experiment.
Even on March 3rd, exactly one month after the first experiment, the alien race from the first experiment showed no signs of returning on their own.
They remain as weak as ever, still confined to the quarantine zones set up by humans.
Of course, apart from the first few days when they would be restless at night after completing the experiment, they were very well-behaved afterward, seemingly realizing what it meant to be "powered by circumstances".
This is the only alien variable in the three phases of the experiment.
As for the rest, after scanning them once and confirming that he hadn't overlooked anything, Su Mo's heart sank, and he said directly:
"Director Long, are there any organisms that were tested three days ago and are still alive?"
Long An Guo nodded. "Of course we have them. We have quite a few in our base right now. The alien races have been easy to capture recently, and we've done several experiments with them."
Before Su Mo could speak after saying that, Long An Guo seemed to have made a connection and immediately realized what he meant. "You mean?"
"I request that the hunting team be dispatched immediately to launch a comprehensive extermination of these creatures from three days ago, to test whether their strength has truly recovered!"
