Can you cure them? Do you have any solution? Lobotomy? Nerve ablation? Or chopping off their heads?
Speaking of which, how many diseases have you really cured? Which one of them did not leave behind serious sequelae? The Locust Sickness sufferers have to endure the desire to eat soil every day; there are millions of Petrification Sickness sufferers queuing up for bone-cutting surgery; there are so many different babies, so many potential Inhumans … Don't you have a way to cure them all? You know the answer, yes, you do … Instead of letting them suffer, why not give them a chance to either be free, or get a healthier, stronger body … This treatment has a 50% success rate. Isn't it better than the current situation …?
"Doctor Wang, what, what solution do you have? Tell me, what's the point of saying that you won't give up … "
Wang Ruoxiang heard the patient who was so angry that he seemed to be on the verge of a mutation judgment immediately said angrily. However, compared to before, there was a hint of hesitation on his face.
As for the other patients, some were willing to listen to her but some were even angrier than before, "She still wants to lie to us!" "She admitted it herself, she said there's no solution! Phecda can't cure us, it's just a lie! "" Then locking us up here is no different than waiting for death! "
She looked at the thousands of patients that filled the tent. The more she looked at their angry, doubtful and pained faces, the more dizzy she felt.
What she heard was not only their messy words, but also a malicious voice that came out of nowhere.
It was probably the dark force released by the Life Will Alliance. Just like Sun Yuheng said, it was here to bewitch her …
Perhaps she also fit the criteria of being bewitched by it. She was once praised as the best student at school, but in the end, she could not compare to Gu Jun, Yu Chi, Siyu, Ximei … Actually, the reason why she was able to survive so many disasters was because of their ability and contribution. She did not contribute much, and now without their help, she was even less able to do anything …
You know, then do you know why?
You're no worse than anyone else, but you don't have access to real power like they do. Gu Jun and Deng Ximei were born that way, Wu Siyu and Yu Chi were also favored by powerful existences … But don't you have that chance now … to come into contact with real power and become stronger? 'Gu Jun thought to himself.
Do you want to heal these people? Do you want to defeat the Life Will Alliance? What do you want to change? You have to become stronger first …
Was it not the same for Gu Jun? Did he not choose to accept the power? Could it be that he wasn't using the methods of the strong to achieve his own wishes?
Or should I call him … Crow?
A violent headache flashed through Wang Ruoxiang's head, and the agitation in her heart grew stronger. It seemed to originate from the influence of the patients around her, but it also seemed to be an invasion from another dimension.
"Dark energy is tempting me," she told Uncle Dan and the rest. She was also reporting to the command central. "Dark energy is gathering here. Be careful of mutation …"
Everyone could see that the situation was not good. More guards rushed into the tent from outside.
However, the first person to mutate surprised them. It was not Zhang Xiaojun but He Mingbiao who was in the bed next to him.
"There will be no solution …" He Mingbiao's eyes were bloodshot. They were bulging so much that they were about to pop out of their sockets. He suddenly let out a wicked scream. "No, there will be no solution. There will be no solution with current medical knowledge. This is not a solution a mortal can come up with!"
As the scream echoed through the tent, He Mingbiao, who was lying on the bed, leaped up violently. His body was bursting with energy.
Zhang Xiaojun and the other patients around him were stunned. They had heard this scream many times over the past two days but this was the first time they had seen a patient scream like this. In the blink of an eye, the flesh on He Mingbiao's face began to twist, and his two eyes, which were already bulging out, further expanded into fish eyes. The skin around his eyes quickly condensed a layer of scales, and strange sharp teeth grew out of his mouth.
At the same time, the guards rushed over. They fired their Ancient Seals and aimed their rifles at the mutants. They yelled for them to cooperate.
The shuffling of footsteps echoed. More guards rushed into the tent from outside. They were all armed with rifles to maintain order inside the tent.
"They want to kill us …" He Mingbiao croaked hoarsely. He told the patients around him. He encouraged them madly, "We are not patients … We are Homo Evolutis. Listen to the voice in your mind. Think back to the scene at the Enlightenment website. You will understand. They are the patients … Look at me, how do I compare to earlier? I have embraced power! "
His deformed face and fanatical words caused many patients to fall into a state of confusion and fear, but it also made some patients, especially those who had been enraged earlier, give it a try. A second howl rang out, then a third, a fourth … Suddenly, it exploded in the tent like a series of thunderclaps.
The mixture of voices pressed heavily on everyone's heart. Wang Ruoxiang's legs wobbled and her expression shifted …
"Say something, continue." He Mingbiao shouted at her. He ignored the guards' warning. "You said you have to do your best to heal us. Can you do that? Do we need to? This is not a disease! And you are not doctors. "
At that moment, the guards fired their taser but He Mingbiao dodged it agilely. He rushed to the side and that caused chaos.
Chaos broke out everywhere in the tent, and there were more shouts everywhere.
If not for the fact that He Mingbiao's group was a newly mutated 'half-mutant' who had not fully mutated yet, the gunshots would have been fired and the situation would have descended into hell. However, with the half-mutants' current strength and speed, the Phecda members could still deal with them. However, in the process of subduing them, the place was a mess.
Not every mutant would succeed. The other half, in great pain, clutched their throats, scratched their faces, beat their hearts, or convulsed, or stiffened, and then suddenly stopped moving. The heart and lungs of those who failed the mutation would not be able to withstand the impact of the mutation. That was the conclusion the medical team came up with after clinical observation and autopsy.
Before this, at this center, the medical team had tried many times to resuscitate the patients who failed the mutation but none of them had succeeded.
Wang Ruoxiang's mind was buzzing. She looked around her. Some of the patients turned into half-mutants, some turned into dead bodies …
'You're not going to say anything? You know, no one is willing to listen to your beautiful words anymore. What use is your effort? As a doctor, don't you know what the patients want? They want health, not your beautiful words or your weak encouragement … You refuse to give up even at the cost of your life. What use is that? What can you do? With your power, it will all be futile. With the power of mortals, you will not be able to escape death …
Don't you understand how disappointed these patients are in you?
Doctor, the great Doctor Phecda, they are so disappointed in you …
"Miss Wang, Miss Wang?" Uncle Dan called her anxiously. That pulled her back to reality.
Wang Ruoxiang shook her head. She suddenly walked out of the tent. The corridor was chaotic. She walked past it. From the corner of her eyes, she saw that the patient who first raged did not undergo any mutation. He just stood there with a pale face, crying helplessly.
She walked out of the tent and saw the gray sky. She saw many other tents like the one behind her. She could not tell which direction the screams came from.
She lowered her head and gasped for air inside the respirator. Tears fell from her eyes.
Was crying going to help? To cure the illness, one had to recover the human's life force … to release the will of life …
However, she also saw that there were busy medical staff everywhere in the treatment center. They were almost running when they walked. Everyone looked exhausted, but their eyes were still shining. Some of them had taken turns to rest, but they could not stand the exhaustion. They sat in some corners, leaned against the wall, or lay on the ground to rest. They did not care about their appearance. They had not even washed their faces for a long time.
There were also newly admitted patients and patients who had been transferred to the ICU … They lay on the stretchers, and there was a look of perseverance and resistance on their pained faces.
Wang Ruoxiang's emotions were in turmoil. Everyone was clearly so tired, but they gave her strength, giving her the strength to say what she wanted to say again.
"I know they're disappointed. I'm even more disappointed than they are …" She said slowly, "Of course they want to be healthy, but being healthy means being able to run, swim, have a good night's sleep, play with friends, take care of their parents, accompany their children as they grow up, and grow up well … They're not forced to do violent things by you guys using the reason of becoming stronger and releasing their instincts. That's not healthy, it's a slave twisted by you guys. If a person can only choose to submit to your definition of 'life instinct', what kind of life instinct is that? You think that the instinct of life is like that, but I think that the instinct of life is love and desire … You want to expand your desire infinitely and kill the love side of the instinct of life. That is denying life and turning yourselves into inhuman monsters.
Of course, humans also have the instinct of death. We are often afraid and have the tendency to destroy, but that's not all of us. I've been thinking about a question. We will all die. We humans are destined from the moment we are born. What is it that keeps us going on living? We try our best to learn, to run around, to pursue our dreams, to pursue a better life, to pursue a higher personality … But in the end, won't we all die? Everything will go up in smoke. Why? I think it's because we start to face death when we are very young. The death of others, the death of public figures, the death of relatives, the death of pets, the death of friends, the death of partners, the death of ourselves … We face death, we accept it. In the instinct of death, we yearn for the peace after death from birth. This doesn't mean that we won't struggle. It's not, because we still have the instinct of life. We will struggle to the end, try to live a little longer, to die with more dignity and meaning.
You call yourselves the strongest but from my perspective, you don't even have the courage to face death, to surpass death. That's why you deny the instinct of love. That's why you use death and destruction to threaten us, to turn us into monsters that have lost their humanity. But for us, we already know our ending. We've made our choice. We will continue to live, live well, live until the day our life ends. I think our civilization is the same way. Even if it is destined to perish from the very beginning, it will still live tenaciously and with dignity until the time of its demise. "
At the same time, Wang Ruoxiang's voice rang through Da Hua's Phecda command central. It echoed in some of the connected meeting rooms.
Everyone was still quiet, but the current silence was different from the previous silence.
The tears that were swirling in their eyes were different from before.
"You can say all these beautiful words but this is our belief. Gu Jun, Yu Chi, many medical staff, many people can prove my words."
She continued, "No matter how cruel you are, you can't kill it. If we are going to die, we will die standing, we will not kneel. "
