Chapter 99 Unexpected Turmoil in the Quarantine Zone
Chapter 99 Unexpected Turmoil in the Quarantine Zone
"The data is more complex than I imagined." Su Wanqing stared at the tangled gene chains on the screen, her fingers lightly tapping the table as she fell into deep thought.
"The signs of human intervention are too obvious. They're not just studying the virus; they're trying to modify it. This kind of experiment... may be more dangerous than we thought."
Professor Yang adjusted his glasses. "This report suggests they were testing the effects of different gene combinations on the human body, attempting to enhance certain abilities while suppressing viral outbreaks. However, the data was interrupted three months ago, and we have no access to subsequent experimental results."
"Interruption?" Su Wanqing looked up, her expression serious. "Just a data interruption?"
Lu Zhao's voice came through the communicator. "A disturbance has broken out outside the quarantine zone. Requesting instructions."
Su Wanqing's heart skipped a beat. "A riot? What's going on?"
"The initial report is that some ordinary people have suddenly exhibited abnormal behavior, becoming agitated and increasingly aggressive. The situation is rapidly deteriorating, and security forces in the quarantine zone have been deployed, but with limited success." Lu Zhao's voice sounded somewhat heavy.
Xiao Ran frowned. "This timing is too sensitive. Could it be a virus mutation? Or are they deliberately creating chaos?"
Su Wanqing's gaze fell on the gene chain on the screen. "I think both are possible. The experimental data mentions an 'activation procedure,' which seems to artificially stimulate viral mutation. The unrest in the quarantine zone is very likely the activation of this procedure."
"Activation program?" Professor Yang exclaimed. "This...this is utterly insane! They actually dare to experiment on humans!"
"Now is not the time for condemnation," Su Wanqing said coldly.
“We need to find out the real reason for the riot. Xiao Ran, you and Lu Zhao disguise yourselves as ordinary people in the quarantine zone and infiltrate the heart of the riot to observe the situation. Be careful and don’t reveal your identities.”
Xiao Ran nodded. "Understood."
Lu Zhao replied, "No problem."
"At night, you provide remote support to them, offering data analysis and location services."
Su Wanqing turned to Lin Che, her tone firm. "Remember, their safety is our top priority."
Lin Che's body trembled slightly, and a cold voice came out of his mouth.
"Understood. I will do my best to provide assistance."
"I need a detailed report on the flow of supplies," Su Wanqing said, turning to Professor Yang.
"We must have a thorough understanding of the supplies stored inside the quarantine zone. If my guess is correct, they may very well take advantage of the unrest to move some critical supplies."
Professor Yang took a deep breath. "Execute immediately."
Su Wanqing walked to the map and traced its surface with her finger. "Using this riot, we can take the opportunity to figure out the internal structure of the base."
But we must be careful, this could very well be a trap.
A few minutes later, Xiao Ran and Lu Zhao changed into the clothes of ordinary people in the quarantine area and blended into the crowd.
Through the riot shields, they could clearly see the chaos inside the quarantine zone.
People were shouting and shoving each other, their faces filled with fear and confusion.
"The situation is worse than we thought," Lu Zhao said in a low voice.
“Those people… something’s not right.” Xiao Ran frowned, observing the crowd around him.
"His eyes were vacant, his movements were stiff, as if he were being controlled."
"Security personnel also joined the crackdown." Lu Zhao pointed ahead. "Their attitude was very tough, and they attacked those people almost without mercy."
Suddenly, Xiao Ran saw a young woman being pinned to the ground by two security guards. She struggled in pain, letting out heart-wrenching screams.
"Stop!" Xiao Ran couldn't help but shout, trying to step forward to stop them.
"Ignore her!" Lu Zhao grabbed Xiao Ran. "We can't reveal our identities!"
Xiao Ran hesitated for a moment, but ultimately held back. He knew Lu Zhao was right; they had to remain calm and complete the mission.
"There are signs of deliberate suppression here." Ye's voice came through Lin Che's earpiece.
“I detected that those people had abnormally low brain activity, as if it had been suppressed by some kind of drug.”
"Medicine?" Professor Yang's voice came through. "Let me check." "Attention, reinforcements are approaching." Ye's voice became urgent.
"They are moving toward the heart of the riots."
"It seems they intend to completely suppress this riot," Lu Zhao said.
"We must find the truth."
Just then, Lin Che suddenly broke free from Ye's control and tried to rush towards the woman who was being attacked by the security personnel.
"Lin Che!" Su Wanqing's voice came through the earpiece. "What are you doing?"
"I...I can't just stand by and watch them hurt innocent people!" Lin Che's voice was filled with anger.
"You're too naive!" Night's voice immediately took the lead.
"Such sacrifices are pointless and will only expose our position! Protecting ourselves is the most important thing!"
Lin Che's body stiffened abruptly. He closed his eyes in pain, trying to control his emotions.
"Ye, you've gone too far!" Su Wanqing's voice was filled with anger.
"You don't value human life at all!"
"Life? In the apocalypse, only the strong can survive."
The sound of the night was cold and merciless. "The weak can only be eliminated; this is a natural law. I firmly believe that protection is useless."
Su Wanqing took a deep breath, suppressing her anger. "I've already warned you not to abuse your power. If this continues, I'll consider another plan."
"Whatever." Night's voice remained unwavering.
Su Wanqing knew that Ye's personality was just like that—cold-blooded and ruthless, with only interests in his eyes.
She couldn't change him, she could only try to control him.
"Xiao Ran, Lu Zhao, expand the observation area," Su Wanqing ordered via communicator.
"I need to know the speed and direction of the riots' spread. Professor Yang, speed up the data analysis and find clues about the 'activation program' as soon as possible."
"Understood." Everyone responded in unison.
Su Wanqing walked to the map and tapped her fingers lightly on the table. "Expand the chaos, let this riot spread throughout the entire quarantine zone."
Only in this way can we uncover their hidden secrets.
She raised her head, her gaze resolute. "Let's begin."
Inside the warehouse, the lights were dim. Lin Che slumped weakly to the ground, his face pale and his forehead covered in sweat.
Night was frantically draining his mental energy, trying to completely control his mind.
"Why do you have to do this?" Lin Che's voice was weak and powerless.
Why hurt innocent people?
"You are just a puppet." Night's voice was cold and ruthless.
"Your role is to provide me with a body and senses. Don't meddle, or I'll make you wish you were dead."
Lin Che closed his eyes in pain, feeling himself gradually losing himself.
He struggled and resisted, but it was all in vain. The power of the night was too great; he was simply no match for it.
"We must find the truth," Lin Che prayed silently in his heart.
"We must stop them...stop this insane experiment..."
