latent syndrome.

159 Chapter 158. Siberia
The scientific research office of the Countermeasure Bureau's underground base.

"After further analysis of the charred remains, it turns out that Di Yu didn't have the ability to resurrect from the dead, but someone died instead of him."

Irina made such a judgment.

"Die instead of him?"

Gray was a little puzzled.

"This has to be combined with some of his experiences. According to the information, he is a remnant of a historical organization and was once held in an archipelago in the extreme north."

"Just like the symbolic world formed by the collective consciousness of human beings, if many people hold the same thought and have the same purpose, they can also form a powerful field that is independent of reality."

"I think it's similar to what happened in Baishi Town some time ago."

"Here is the information on Baishi Town, you can take a look first."

Irina gave the information to Gray for review. The fire burned for three days and three nights, and too many resources were wasted in follow-up work including fire fighting and statistics.

According to Liszt's description, it was Colin who burned to death all the people who were fused by the strange tree, and then the domain of this chaotic consciousness cluster was released, and Jessica and their group were able to escape.

Gray looked at the information carefully, and after a while, he discovered the incredible fact that there really was such a coincidence.

So in Baishi Town, a remote town at the junction of Southern California and other states, I found a simple young man.

This dead man named Clay was actually the one who committed the crime for the mayor about 30 years ago. At first he thought it was a hit and run, but later he found out that it was such a crime.

In addition, his mother was murdered alive after being raped by a serial killer in the town, and the town also used the gimmick of the serial killer as a tourist attraction and sold souvenirs.

So it pissed him off, presumably that's why so many innocents got revenge.

The death toll in that fire was so high that most of them had to be described as missing.

"Just like this man named Clay, he used some ancient secret techniques to give birth to that kind of domain-like forest. The power of the forest comes from the alienated residents and travelers wrapped in strange trees."

"It's impossible to say exactly what's going on with Di Yu."

"But there is no doubt that he has a similar power."

"The thoughts and wills of the ferocious thugs who were once imprisoned in the Far North Islands may have also condensed into a field and converged on Di Kuo."

"Every time he dies, a soul takes his place."

"Perhaps he was chosen to complete the unfinished business of those people."

Irina explained.

"You did a good job, Irina, at least now you have a way to deal with him."

"But the hard part is... How do you know how many times he can die?"

Gray believes that there must be a number, and this kind of resurrection cannot be infinite. Isn't that the same as a god?Everything has a price, and the price of submerged disease is violent death after insanity, which must have some kind of limitation.

"I have a method."

"It's like the instrument that was made before to detect the depth of the agent's dive."

"I can modify it to use the spirit of ordinary people as a unit to detect the number of existences within the specified range."

"Although I can't guarantee it, it may work."

"Di Kuo's own combat strength is not exaggerated. It is no different from an S-level infected person. It is just that he has the ability to die and live. It is probably only this that made him the top cadre, so he must have used it a lot. number of chances of death."

There was a faint smell of sweat on Irina's shirt, her hair was messy, and her eyes were heavy.

Gray saw that she hadn't had much rest these days, and she wanted Irina to take a good rest, but now was not the time.

"very good."

"Then leave it to you."

"in addition……"

"A token about Liszt."

Gray found that Liszt was very abnormal recently, far more ruthless and prone to killing than before, maybe he was already on the verge of collapse.

"He is a very strange person, Colonel. He has no valuables, and he can't make tokens as anchors to prevent getting lost."

Irina replied calmly.

"I understand."

"Tomorrow, the secret weapon from the headquarters will arrive and be used against the Pope."

"It will be stored here first, and it will be activated immediately after confirming that there is no problem."

Gray finished speaking and left the laboratory.

Irina's eyes became more and more lax. She took off her glasses and pinched the center of her eyebrows. Is it a secret weapon?The secret weapon produced by the Second Research Institute is one of the biggest reliance of the countermeasure bureau. It is said that it is a terrifying monster that combines submerged disease and genetic engineering.

……

……

……

A dimly lit interrogation room.

The shaking incandescent lamp, the cold iron chair, the shocking claw marks on the wall, and some solidified red paint all made the young man feel uneasy.

"You will question the wisdom of the predecessors?"

The expressionless soldier in army uniform questioned the man in front of him.

"Do not."

"You can easily see the general principles behind specific events?"

"Do not."

"Have you made inappropriate remarks about the Liberty League on the Internet?"

The soldier's eyes were extremely cold.

Despair crushed it.

"Yes."

The young man replied.

"Your request to leave the city is temporarily denied."

Snapped……

The military stamped a rejectturn red stamp on the document.

Then it was the turn of a haggard woman in her early 30s.

……

The quarantine area is fully completed.

The sentry tower with machine guns, the high wall built with red bricks and stones, and the electrified iron grid surrounded the entire Husk area.

Priority is given to the infected, followed by the mentally ill and ex-convicts.

Military trucks passed the road in an endless stream, raising billows of smoke and dust.

Within a few days.

With the instigation of the SCT and the support of the stormtroopers, more and more people came here to protest and march, and riots occurred from time to time, and even soldiers were shot and killed.

And this also aroused the anger of the city government, which adopted tougher countermeasures.

Since the introduction of another system yesterday, the citizens no longer dare to protest, because now those who do not cooperate with the work of the functional agencies will be regarded as accomplices of terrorists and punished on the spot.

It's finally cleared up here.

Gray came to inspect the work here, and Seka was also with him, and Mei, who was also an S-level infected person, was also a smartly dressed woman with a ponytail.

Since Gray used to be a soldier of the Army's Quick Response Force with the rank of a colonel, and now he is the general manager of Los Angeles, when the camouflage jeep drove by, the soldiers lined up to salute.

Arrive at a spooky building that has been repurposed.

Gray discovered that some citizens were going out of the city for testing, but she knew in her heart that the probability of passing must be completely free from stains, and no improper remarks have even been made on the Internet before they can pass.

Suddenly.

She saw a little girl who seemed to be unsupervised by an adult, playing with sand and stones on the ground with her hands.

The girl was only about five years old and wore glasses to correct amblyopia. The side of the glasses with normal vision was covered with a blue cloth to reduce the diopter of both eyes.

Gray asked the soldier in charge of the place, and the soldier replied that the girl's mother was being tested.

……

Interrogation room.

"You have been divorced once, and your ex-husband's monthly child pension has not been cut off, right?"

"And the biggest reason for your victory is that you destroyed him by hijacking online public opinion on women's rights, right?"

asked the soldier.

"It's not like this……"

"My husband himself has..."

Don't wait for the woman to finish speaking.

"Your request to leave the city has been temporarily dismissed."

Snapped!
The red seal was slammed down, announcing something terribly terrible.

……

The woman left the interrogation room with dim eyes, as if she had aged many years, took the little girl away, and left here silently.

Gray withdrew her gaze, said nothing, and asked the driver to continue driving into the isolation area. She wanted to inspect the situation of the infected people who had been hunted down.
