Everyone in Team Nordic's perception of Chu Hao had once again undergone a profound change … Damn it, this is pure acting!
Chu Hao's performance was really very successful. The entire gathering point's attitude towards them changed drastically. Initially, they were unfamiliar with them and were suspicious of them. However, they were extremely enthusiastic now. If one were to use the game's language to describe it, it would be that their favorable impression of them had changed from cold to worship.
In Chu Hao's fictional team, there were more than 400 researchers in the beginning, but in the end, only three survived. Moreover, Chu Hao also claimed that in the sterile environment of the research institute, if they wanted to, no one would die from the mutation. However, in order to develop the antidote, these people chose to sacrifice themselves. What kind of moral character was that? All this really shocked everyone in the gathering point.
With such a mood, the people in the gathering point naturally changed their attitude towards Chu Hao and his team. Not only did they take out their treasured tea leaves, but they also took out a lot of food that they risked their lives to find in the nearby towns, such as canned food, some plants and fruits that they collected, and some animal meat that they hunted. In the early hours of the morning, it was as if a grand banquet was being held. Except for the babies, almost everyone in the gathering point was celebrating.
"We're going to New York because the antidote is still the last step. However, the research institute has run out of energy, and it's only possible to find enough experimental equipment nearby. That's the place where the virus first broke out. There's a lot of experimental equipment and experimental data there. If we get to New York, we'll probably be able to complete the last step of the experiment very quickly. Then, we'll start to recover the mutated humans!"
Chu Hao picked up a can of beer and raised it to signal to the people around him. At the same time, he said loudly.
The people around him cheered, and there were also some older people who suddenly said, "Major General, I wonder if you can show us the antidote? Of course, I'm not doubting it. I just want to see the greatest invention of this century right away. You know, we've had enough of hiding in the mountains. We've had enough of this fear. If possible, we want to go back to the city right now. So … can you show it to us? "
Chu Hao was silent for a while. Then, he said, "We've only done experiments on animals for now. We haven't done the last step of human experiments yet. However, since you want to see it, we'll do another experiment on animals. However, do you have any mutated animals here? Cats, dogs, or mice will do. "
The surrounding people were overjoyed. The old man who was the leader immediately nodded and said, "We have locked up mutated dogs. They were originally our most loyal companions, but they were bitten by other mutated animals in order to protect us. To be honest, we should have ended their pain, but we couldn't do it, so we kept them locked up. Why don't we use them for experiments? But … we don't know if it's safe … "
Chu Hao shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, but I have to say this first. I really can't guarantee absolute safety. There's nothing absolutely safe in this world, but this antidote has been studied by hundreds of people for many years. We've also done many animal experiments. The success rate is very high, and the quality is guaranteed. “
(It's a product of the Overgod, so it must be the best!)
The rest of Team Nordic roared in their hearts, but no one exposed Chu Hao's words. Under everyone's gaze, Chu Hao personally went to the hot air balloon to retrieve the antidote … Well, he went to the hot air balloon spaceship and took out the antidote from the space fragment. It was an all-purpose virus antidote exchanged from the Overgod. It was not expensive. The description of this antidote was that it could cure all conventional viruses. In fact, when the hot air balloon was being built, Chu Hao took the opportunity to experiment with the mutated virus with the antidote. It easily killed the virus without killing the virus host. This was definitely a better antidote than the one made by the male protagonist in the original movie. Unfortunately, this antidote was exchanged from the Overgod, so it could not be mass produced.
When Chu Hao returned, a few strong men from the gathering point dragged out a dog-like creature that was wrapped in chains and thick cloth from a small stone house. It was struggling with all its might. Judging from its exposed skin and the blood-red eyes on its head, this was a mutated dog-like creature.
Everyone stared at the scene with their eyes wide open. Chu Hao did not hesitate. He immediately took out a dose of antidote and injected it into the canine creature. After that, almost everyone held their breaths. They stared at the canine creature without moving their eyes. Unknowingly, everyone's backs were already drenched in sweat.
And just as they watched, after the dog was injected, its struggle gradually slowed down as if it was injected with anesthetic. Soon, it collapsed to the ground, and its chest, which was breathing violently, soon slowed down. In the end, it was just like a normal dog's breathing, no longer as violent as when it was mutated.
And after all, this was a product of the Lord God, a real premium product. In less than a minute, the dog completely calmed down, and the redness in its eyes began to recede. The muscles on the surface of its skin relaxed slightly. At most five minutes after the injection, the dog slowly stood up, trembling. It no longer struggled wildly like before, but slowly stood up. Then, it let out a cry of a normal dog, but the sound was a little miserable, as if the dog had been beaten to some place. At this time, even a blind man could see that the dog was no longer as crazy as when it was mutated.
"This, this …"
The surrounding people were still in disbelief. They stared with their eyes wide open. And in the crowd, a man and woman let out a sorrowful cry, shouting Tom's words, and rushed forward. They hugged the dog and cried bitterly. The dog seemed to recognize its owner, and actually let out a fawning cry. All of this happened in front of everyone's eyes, and many people even began to cry bitterly.
"The antidote! It's really the antidote! "
The old man, who was the leader, raised his head and cried. He drew a cross on his chest, then cried and howled, "Little Jasmine, Mili, you're saved. I know you're still alive. Wait for grandpa, grandpa will definitely come and save you! Oh God, there's really an antidote, we humans are saved! "
The whole scene was suddenly filled with sorrowful cries. Among the people present, almost everyone had relatives or friends who had become mutants, or were killed by mutants. And in the dark days, they lived day by day. Although it was not explicitly said, everyone knew that the end of human civilization had arrived, and they were just struggling at death's door. But at this moment, when they suddenly heard that there was an antidote, there were too many thoughts in everyone's mind. Those who had relatives or friends who had become mutants could not wait to find their relatives and friends immediately and use the antidote to turn them back. And those whose relatives and friends had almost all died were now crying. With the antidote, there would be no more days like this in the future.
All of this happened so suddenly that everyone was roaring and venting. It was not until a long time later that they remembered to untie the dog. Everyone was still very careful when they were unchained, and the guards were still pointing their guns at the dog. After the dog was unchained, it did not go berserk at all. Instead, it carefully licked the wounds on its body that were cut by the chain, and at the same time, it let out a dog's sorrowful cry. It carefully wagged its tail and looked at the humans around it. This finally made everyone completely let go of the last of their worries.
Almost the entire colony fell into a carnival, and this carnival lasted until morning. Everyone did not disperse, and the old man, who was the leader, directly asked Chu Hao about the formation of the group. When he learned that they were going to New York immediately, he even planned to let everyone in the colony follow them to New York.
"I don't think that's possible. First of all, we're using a hot air balloon to fly to New York. This way, our safety will be guaranteed. This hot air balloon won't be able to carry so many people. It's already amazing that it can carry another ten people at most. Secondly, I wonder if there are any other gathering places nearby?" Chu Hao rejected the old man's request and asked directly.
The old man said without thinking, "Those mutants can't go to places where the temperature is too low. Almost all the surviving humans can only stay in the mountains. We are one of them. From here to the east, further into the mountains, there are about three other colonies. The largest one has more than a thousand people, but it is more difficult for them to obtain food. I heard that when they went to the city to look for supplies a few days ago, they were attacked by the mutants because they retreated too late. I don't know the exact number of casualties."
Chu Hao pondered for a moment, then said, "I hope you can go east along the mountains, avoid all the places where the mutants might be, and only travel in the mountains. Gather all the survivors and get as close to New York as possible. I know that there is a secret military food warehouse in New York. That warehouse was built for nuclear war, so the food stored there is definitely not rotten yet. It is definitely edible, and the stock is large enough to feed many people. New York is near the sea, and it is also one of the few prosperous metropolises. Along the way, we will complete the antidote and return to the mountains. Then, we will start planning to recover the fallen areas and save the mutants. My personal plan is to start from New York. We have to increase the number of humans first. The more people there are, the more strength there is. Although the food pressure is high, New York's food storage should be able to last for a while. Once we have recovered enough people, or even all of New York, we can start farming. This way, we will have a continuous source of food. At the same time, New York's supplies can be used by us. We can also manufacture firearms in New York. Then, with New York as the starting point, we will begin to recover the surrounding cities. Step by step, as long as we complete the antidote, we will definitely be able to save this apocalyptic world!"
The old man thought for a moment and said decisively, "Okay, I will lead everyone into the mountains and inform all the gathering points along the way that we have the antidote. This dog is the proof. But if possible, please give me more of this incomplete antidote. After all, some people might want to see it for themselves. Also, Major General, if it's possible, I hope you can send me some people after New York is recovered so that I can go back and save some people … Consider it the last wish of an old man who is about to die."
Chu Hao naturally knew that the old man was probably trying to save the two girls he mentioned before. He immediately nodded and said, "Don't worry, after we recover New York, as long as production resumes, we can quickly repair the helicopter. When the time comes, we can take the helicopter back and definitely save the people you want to save. After the antidote is perfected, they will definitely be able to turn back into humans."
After hearing this, the old man's eyes were filled with tears. He was not the only one. Many people around him were talking loudly. The general idea was that they hoped to save their relatives and friends. Chu Hao raised his hand to signal them to be quiet. He then said loudly, "Don't worry. Saving them has always been our fixed goal. We have sacrificed so much. Isn't it to save this world? I promise here, as long as the antidote is perfected, as long as I am still here, I will do my best to save them! "
The entire place was filled with jubilation. Everyone was shouting excitedly. There was no time to lose. After breakfast, the entire settlement began to organize and prepare. This was going to be an extremely long journey on foot. What they could bring, what they couldn't bring, food, livestock, and so on were all things that needed to be prepared.
The old man seemed to have recognized Chu Hao's position, or rather, he intended to let Chu Hao manage the gathering place. He inquired about almost all the migration matters of the entire gathering place, and even directly let Chu Hao make the decision. Chu Hao did not hold back. More power would be of great benefit to his plan in this world. Moreover, he was the leader of the Renegades Organization. The affairs of a few hundred people were like child's play to him. It only took him a morning to settle everything in an orderly manner. At noon, when Chu Hao and the others boarded the hot air balloon, the people of the gathering place also began to migrate along the mountain path to another gathering place.
In everyone's eyes, there was a kind of light, and the name of this light was...
Hope!
