Twenty-five people was not enough to mean that everyone in the base had a problem.
At the containment base of β-250, everyone from the person in charge to the cleaning staff quickly completed a self-inspection, and the list of divinity-bearers was soon determined.
The divinity-bearers were easy to find, because it was already known that twenty-five people had left the base.
