I'm a mentally ill person, and I was chosen to participate in the Rules of the Strange Tales.

After that, all other methods became useless.

The virus penetrates deep into every part of the patient's body: skin, flesh, tendons, and bones.

With the world's current medical capabilities, it has been discovered that there is no way to deal with this virus!

Chapter 528 A Mess of Code

"It's a pity, the medical log didn't say how long the incubation period of this virus is." Jiang Xiao frowned.

"Is this important?" Shi Shi asked, looking up.

"Yes, you could say it's extremely important!"

Most people believe that the strength of a virus depends mainly on its intensity and transmission route.

However, the extremely important incubation period is often overlooked.

"I've played a game called Plague Inc."

Jiang Xiao slowly began to speak, as if he were giving Xiao Shishi a lesson.

In Plague Inc., the virus can either evolve into a highly infectious or highly lethal form.

However, generally speaking, high infectivity precedes high lethality.

Because if the virus is very deadly from the beginning, all the initial virus hosts will die and will no longer be able to participate in the spread.

For example, if a virus infects a, but before a can infect b, a dies, then the transmission stops.

Ebola is the best example of this; before a cure was even developed, all the patients had died.

If it's not fatal, it will give humanity time to develop an effective treatment, causing the game to end, and there are many viruses that have this say.

"I speculate that the incubation period of this virus should be about a week, but once symptoms appear, the illness will come on suddenly and severely, leaving the patient in a state of near death, and there is no cure."

Highly contagious, highly lethal, and with a sufficiently long incubation period!

Only in this way can we explain why the upper echelons ultimately had no other options and chose to give up.

If the incubation period is short

The authorities can isolate the outbreak area immediately!

But could there really be such a perfect virus?

Viruses are generally highly contagious but low in lethality. For example, the common cold can often spread to the whole family if one person gets it, but it usually gets better in a week with medication or in seven days without medication.

Or it could be highly contagious and highly lethal, causing rapid death upon infection, but such a virus cannot remain dormant, right?

It's so highly lethal, how could it have been lurking for so long?

Jiang Xiao shook his head and continued flipping through the medical log.

Jiang Xiao's speculations also appeared in later log entries.

Although the log was written in a very formal manner, Jiang Xiao still sensed the crumbling foundation of medicine in the recorder's work.

They used every means at their disposal, whether conventional or unconventional, illegal or legal.

I've never seen this virus before!

This virus shouldn't exist!

This is a virus that could wipe out all of humanity!

Ok?

and many more?

The later blog posts seem to have changed?

Or rather, has the person been replaced?

【June 3】

Sigh, everyone's gone. Some of us wanted to continue our research on the front lines, but the higher-ups felt that we "talented" people should shine in the rear, as the dangers on the front were too great.

Many young PhD and Master's students have already left for the [X] Lab.

Those who remain are either science fanatics like me.

Or they are some true masters who practice medicine and help the world.

But I can't blame them; I'm even glad they were rational.

Because this virus is just too bizarre.

It's better for talented people to survive than to die here.

【June 3】

I think I've discovered something incredible.

If it's true, then it will be absolutely shocking!

【June 3】

The patient is still barely clinging to life; alas, it would be better to give him a quick death.

But for the sake of scientific research, we have to be a little ruthless and just live. The longer we live, the more data we can observe.

(Of course, we haven't observed any useful information yet.)

"It should be him!"

Jiang Xiao's eyes widened. The previous recorder had left, and the person continuing to write the medical log now must be the owner of the diary!

【June 3】

I contacted an old friend in the history department, and he has already started investigating.

What?

Jiang Xiao looked at it repeatedly, even asking Shi Shi to come and look at it again, wondering if he was hallucinating.

What kind of time is this to seek help from an old history professor to cure your illness?

"What's going on? Has this kid gone crazy?"

He didn't continue recording on the 12th and 13th, probably because he was too busy.

Until the 14th!

【June 3】

My old friend died, and his death was completely unexpected.

The people there wouldn't even tell me the cause of death; I heard the death was quite gruesome.

I heard it sounds like someone who has aged.

And even though he was dead, he had an incredibly happy smile on his face.

Did I ruin him?

I guess I'm the one who hurt him, but if that's the case, then it means my suspicions were on the right track.

Jiang Xiao:

Let's sort it out.

That big shot in the history department is dead?

He just asked an old friend from the history department to help him investigate something, and then he died?

Jiang Xiao began to doubt conspiracy theories. Could it be that this virus was created by humans?

Then this history professor might have discovered something, and then he was silenced?

wrong!

Even if it's a man-made virus, what good is it to have an old history professor investigate if you don't hire a special agent or a strong young man?

What exactly happened?

What direction is this medical expert suspicious of?

Shi Shi had already calmed down. At this moment, she finally realized that this strange tale was completely different from the ones before, and it couldn't be resolved by fighting and killing.

【June 3】

This is not a virus, this is God's punishment for us!

The seemingly random sentence made Jiang Xiao's brows furrow even deeper.

【June 3】

But even if you are a god, what right do you have to punish us?

【June 3】

So what if it's God?

You killed my old friend, I will find a way to kill you!
