Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 621: Virus Reappears
The cave is the lower space where Dimension Card Company was located earlier...

Originally, this should have been a huge hollow mountain that could accommodate animal experiments and personnel training, as well as thousands of cattle and sheep to avoid the extreme cold in winter and provide food and animal rations to the people of Dimension Card Company.

Shanying destroyed the laboratory of Dimension Card Company with a bomb. The explosion in the upper space caused the collapse of the interior of the mountain, and a large part of the huge lower space was buried by the collapsed mountain.

Over the past period of time, after diligent excavation and exploration by those so-called conservation organizations, the location of the mountain eagles has now been revealed to the world.

Shanying knew about this, and he also knew that most of those so-called conservation organizations were just sheep in disguise. However, as a landlord, it was not convenient for him to reject these so-called environmental protection organizations that were backed by the state government.

Anyway, the most important laboratory on the second floor has been completely destroyed, so no matter how hard these people try, the result will be the same.

What Shanying didn't expect was that now trapped in the mountain were not only the members of the two Black Hawk helicopters, but also a group of members of an environmental protection organization wearing green vests.

This group of people seem to have lived here for a while...

There were tents, campfires, stoves, several freshly slaughtered cattle and sheep, and the carcasses of two black bears, one large and one small.

These people should be living well. Even if a blizzard suddenly hits outside, it will not have much impact on the interior of the cave.

But what the mountain eagle actually saw was completely different...

More than twenty guys in green vests were sitting on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs. Their faces were red and they looked frantic. Some of them were obviously bitten by black bears. They were in a dying state and looked like they could die at any time.

Several Inuit soldiers, carrying rifles on their backs, stared at these people as if they were some kind of monster.

Six seriously injured soldiers transferred from the north were lying on stretchers, occupying a position near the exit. Two medics were busy taking care of them.

There were two other Inuit soldiers and several pilots sitting on the ground with their arms folded, occasionally picking up small stones and throwing them at the green vests, cursing from time to time.

The situation at the scene made Shanying a little confused...

Originally everyone was trying to avoid the snowstorm, and there was nothing worth fighting for here, but it was obvious that a serious conflict had broken out here before they arrived.

The strange atmosphere was diluted with the arrival of Shanying and his companions. The vicious butcher took control of the situation as soon as he entered the cave...

Michael and Scott, who were dressed warmly, took off their hats and hoods with great effort, rushed to the seriously injured and talked to the two medics, and then quickly found their cousin.

While Michael was communicating with the soldiers, Mountain Eagle held up a high-intensity flashlight and led Crazy Bull and Pegasus around the still huge space in the mountain belly, and finally came to the pool where he and Luna escaped from the mountain belly...

The northern part of the mountain has completely collapsed, but the southern part where the mountain eagle is located is still relatively intact.

I stood by the pond and felt the temperature around me, then squatted down and used my hands to touch the icy groundwater...

The mountain eagle looked at the somewhat excited mad cow and flying horse, and said with a smile: "Do you think this place can accommodate 200 cows?"

Pegasus, who had worked in the American West, was obviously an expert. He nodded decisively and said, "Of course, the area here is very large. If the planning is appropriate, it should be able to accommodate 500 cattle for the winter.

However, it would be very difficult for us to supply fodder for 500 cows ourselves, and it would be a losing business if we purchased it from outside.

But 200 heads will definitely be no problem. The grass in Alaska grows like crazy in the summer. As long as we can plant grass in the valley, we can harvest it once or twice and store enough grass for them to survive the winter.

Angus cattle can also go out and forage for food in winter, but the most fatal conditions for them are actually the three coldest months in Alaska..."

Shanying doesn't know how to raise cattle. To him, these cattle and sheep are things that fell from the sky. It would be best if they could survive, but he doesn't mind if they can't.

Since the indigenous people like Huai En are willing to give it a try, Shanying will naturally sponsor them. After all, if he has his own cattle and sheep, he can save some money.

The Brown Bear Camp, including the surrounding land, is the only physical business that Mountain Eagle has invested in on a large scale so far.

He has invested nearly $1500 million here, including camp construction, land purchases, and semi-charitable trading activities at the beginning.

The camp has not sold a single fur purchased so far. The king salmon trade has been talked about for a long time, but apart from sending goods to China once a week from Anchorage so that Xiao Wan can satisfy her appetite and do a favor, there has been very little progress.

All the food and drink for people and horses is money. If we can really raise some cattle and sheep together so that we have enough food and drink, and occasionally subsidize the camp's consumption through transactions, that would be the best thing.

Looking at the excited Pegasus, Mountain Eagle nodded and said, "Then start with the stray cattle and sheep outside. After the snowstorm is over, you must drive as many cattle and sheep in as possible.

If you are too busy, I can bring Baran with me to help.

And I have to check the surrounding mountains, at least to find you a safe place to stay."

After saying that, Shanying waved his hand to signal the two to look around again, and then he walked around the mountain wall himself. After getting some gains, he walked over to the green vests and took a look around... "Gentlemen, as members of an environmental protection organization, how can you hunt black bears with cubs? This is a felony that is enough to send you to jail in Alaska."

When Shanying was speaking, the green vests with flushed faces and obviously high fever did not respond to him. Instead, an Inuit soldier next to him came over and said, "Sir, these people are very dangerous..."

Mountain Eagle asked curiously: "They attacked you? Why?"

The short Inuit soldier shook his head and pointed at the guys on the ground who were about to die, and said, "I don't know...

When we brought the wounded in to take shelter from the wind, these guys attacked us like crazy.

We had to wound them and tie up the rest.”

Mountain Eagle squatted beside a guy whose leg was scratched by a black bear. He just reached out and touched his forehead lightly. Then the guy curled up and let out an extremely painful roar as if his fingers were caught in a mousetrap.

"what……"

The screams attracted everyone's attention. A man in a green vest with his hands tied behind his back tried to stand up while shouting, "What are you doing?"

Shanying looked back at the guy, shook his head and said, "Should I be the one asking you what you did?"

After saying this, Shanying didn't need this guy to answer. He stood up and looked at the group of Inuit soldiers and said, "Stay away from them. They must be sick..."

At this time, the mountain eagle already had a rough idea of what had happened?

Because the situation of this group of people is very similar to what he had encountered before!
He felt something was wrong the moment he saw these people. Just now, when he was wandering around the mountain wall, he used the Golden Cicada to conduct a detailed exploration, and then found that this group of people found a narrow passage leading to the second-level space in the rugged passage inside the mountain wall.

The exit of that passage is very close to the core office of the laboratory.

These people were not here to conduct any environmental survey; they were heading for the laboratory on the second floor.

Then somehow, they were also infected with the virus that infected the Mountain Eagle!
Several guys who had already lost consciousness had bites and scratches from black bears on their bodies...

It should be caused by the virus. Shanying couldn't explain the specific principle, but when he came into contact with them just now, the high fever that was obviously over 40 degrees indicated that those guys would not survive.

Shanying was lucky to survive, not only because of his good physical fitness, but more importantly, Xuehu spent millions of dollars to purchase a lot of expensive drugs according to the doctor's requirements, and found heavyweight doctors from Canada and the United States to come for consultation...

The hospitalization fee was $300 million, plus the extra medical expenses of nearly $500 million spent by Blood Fox and his team, including the sky-high drug costs and consultation fees, totaling nearly $800 million, to provide him with the best care...

Even so, Shanying almost didn't survive. In the end, his wife, children and Baran appeared at his bedside and restored his mind which was broken by the illness.

In fact, Shanying had reviewed his experiences many times, and he guessed that his problem should be related to the ancient corpse in the laboratory...

He even vaguely guessed that he was able to survive in the end because something in Baran's body neutralized the virus in his body.

Because it was Baran who tore open the wound on his wrist at the most critical moment...

The doctor's final conclusion was that it was a viral infection that stimulated a certain mechanism in his body, causing the secretion of a large amount of various hormones, which led to huge changes in his body.

Judging from the results, this is a good thing for Mountain Eagle!

But for these people, it’s not necessarily the case…

Just as Shanying remained silent, a guy lying on the ground suddenly began to twitch and vomit. His body was like he had been hit by a strong electric shock. His hands and feet twisted and curled up into a ball and began to tremble...

The blood vessels on his neck bulged and his face became redder and redder...

Just when the medic was about to come up to check, a stream of blood suddenly spurted out of this guy's nose, and then he suddenly opened his mouth and started howling...

This sudden situation shocked everyone.

The Inuit soldier in charge of guarding the green vests retreated to the side, muttering something. When he looked at the unconscious guys again, there was something wrong with his eyes...

Shanying frowned and asked, "What did you think of?"

As Shanying said this, he looked at the guy, howling, and covered his mouth with his curled right hand, dislocating his jaw with force, making his mouth open to an unbelievable degree...

"Shit, what the hell is this?"
