Bone Sculptor

Chapter 17: I have a way

An Yi saw good fungi that were "dangerous to death" floating everywhere in the base, and he probably understood the current human situation. The spread and evolution of fungi obviously exceeded their expectations, and the number of vermilion fruits is very scarce, not enough to provide research needs. I am afraid that Zhu Guo will be exhausted before they can produce results.

Even if An Yi has been in the jungle for so long, it is not easy to find a few dormant vermilion fruits. Because she only recently discovered the fact that the dormant fungus that the Totas avoid for fear is actually the favorite of animals.

It turned out that she had seen this kind of fungus a long time ago, but she didn't sense their strong sense of autonomy at the time, so she ignored the past. Animals devour the dormant cinnabar fruit to nourish the fungus. The fungi they nourish are low-infectious, unconscious, accompany with the host, and will remove harmful substances from the host's body. These fungi will not leave the host like pollen and spread around, but will only swim around the host until they condense seeds and take root. The two sides coexist in harmony and help each other. As they say, they are "good fungi".

But the dormant fungus that parasitizes humans shows a completely different state. The first thing An Yi thought of was "unacceptable to water and soil". Humans from Tortas were unable to adapt to the parasitism of the dormant fungus, resulting in unhealthy symptoms such as coma and spots. The dormant fungus has acquired new evolutionary capabilities in humans, and gradually has a clear sense of self.

If fungi on animals are like satellites, then fungi on humans are meteors. The former is small in number and reproduces slowly, but very stable; the latter is large in number, reproduces fast, and is extremely active. In short, it's abnormal.

Of course, An Yi didn't know what this meant at this time, but felt that if humans want to fully settle on this planet in the future, it will inevitably take a long time to adapt to the environment here.

An Yi said that they could not do anything about the crisis they are currently facing, so when Milos asked her for help through Wang Wang, she did not respond, but silently followed their situation.

Milos launched an emergency strategy, dividing Base 3 into three areas: inner, middle and outer areas. The inner area is the isolation area, the middle area is the sterilization area, and the periphery is the observation area. Everyone must first go to the sterilization area for disinfection, and then go to the corresponding area. People who have been infected with the fungus before being treated will wear immune signs.

Although humans have not yet developed an antidote, it is easy to find out who is carrying the virus or fungus. A series of emergency measures implemented by Milos temporarily controlled the situation.

Five days later, the researchers headed by Ailan reported to Milos pleasantly: "Major General Milos, I think we have found a cure for dormant fungus!"

"Oh? Tell me." Milos looked at them solemnly.

"I don't know if Major General Milos has heard that long ago, human beings invented a vaccinia method to treat some terrible infectious disease?" Ailan explained, "They extracted vaccinia virus from cows infected with vaccinia. Then planted in humans, humans will produce vaccinia antibodies, which can prevent and treat that terrible infectious disease."

"What do you mean?" Milos' eyes shone slightly.

Ailan said excitedly: "We have done experiments with animals on this planet. The situation is very similar to cowpox, except that it is not humans, but animals that produce antibodies. All animals infected with dormant fungi, the antibodies produced in their bodies can be effective. The ground inhibits the reproduction of fungi, and ultimately achieves a healing effect."

"Have you done physical testing?"

"I have done it. A total of ten testers have been selected, and the success rate has reached 100%."

Milos pondered for a moment, and said: "Observe for another three days and confirm that there are no other adverse reactions, then promote it to the whole district."

"Yes." Ailan replied excitedly, and then added, "Major General Milos, we need to use animals from this planet to cultivate antibody bacteria, at least one thousand. Most of the existing animals in the base come from support. Tas star, less than a hundred animals have been caught from the exploration star."

Milos nodded to express understanding, and then said to her: "Let me see the results of your experiment first."

Several people came to the laboratory together, Ailan opened the video and showed Milos their experimental process and various experimental data. The ten testers are now in the observation room, and they are in good physical condition.

Wangwang, the skeleton rat in Milos's pocket, stuck his head out and watched the experiment with them. When seeing humans using instruments to extract antibody bacteria from animals, An Yi in the jungle accidentally carved the unfinished bones into ashes.

It is understandable that human beings use animals to do experiments for their own safety and benefit, but the animals whose antibodies are extracted by them will basically not live long. Seeing their painful appearance, An Yi felt a little uncomfortable.

Is there really no other way? One thousand animals is not a small number.

Anyi can almost foresee that mankind is about to launch a large-scale hunting operation on this planet.

After a few swishes, a small sand cat lurched over to An Yi's feet and looked at her with his head tilted.

This little sand cat is the silly cat that was once regarded as a "scapegoat" by An Yi, then caught by humans, and finally released by humans. Its hobby is to run away from home, and its professional skill is "others cheat me a hundred times, and I treat others like family members".

An Yi took the dormant from its mouth, then took one and handed it to its mouth. Xiao Shamao stretched out her small tongue and licked it, then took a peek at An Yi, and only when she was sure that she could eat it, she rolled Zhu Guo into her mouth.

An Yi squatted in front of it, staring at it seriously.

Under An Yi's gaze, I didn't know what magical things Xiao Shamao had realized. He saw it drill through An Yi's leg bones, stepped on her hip bones, crawled into her chest cavity, and then climbed on two ribs. , Looked up at her, wagging his tail, sweeping across her jaw.

An Yi lowered her head, looked through her chest, and looked at the little sand cat that seemed to be planning to camp in her body. She was speechless for a long while.

She pulled the little sand cat out, put it aside, and preached with consciousness: "Don't just get into someone else's body, it's very impolite. 】

Shamao tilted his head, with big shiny eyes, looking at An Yi ignorantly.

By looking at it, you know it doesn't understand.

An Yi took off her left forearm and shook it in front of Xiaosha Mao's eyes, playing rock-paper-scissors with it boredly.

Shamao would only produce cloth every time, which made An Yi very unfulfilled to win, so she kindly lost a few. After playing this way for more than an hour, after the fungus exhaled from the snout of the little sand cat, he finally stopped the game and reinstalled his arm.

Ann also tried to establish contact with these fungi, only to receive some vague consciousness. They can't even express the complete information, they seem very primitive. But strangely, An also felt that they were not weak. They surround the host, appearing and disappearing from time to time, stable and regular.

An Yi touched her finger lightly, and the fungi immediately circled her finger a few times, and then returned to the sand cat.

The same is fungus, how can the gap be so big? These proper top students in front of me! And those parasitic on human beings are all unsupervised bear children!

An Yi is holding the little sand cat and looking left and right, wondering where the antibody bacteria that humans are talking about are. Why do we have to use the method of "killing chickens to get eggs"? Isn’t there a gentler way?

At this time, Skeleton Rat Wangwang sent another message, and after An Yi received it, two clusters of faint blue spirit fire suddenly rose.

So that's OK!

On the other side, Milos had already made a hunting decision. The experimental animals can be rounded up in low-risk areas, so he did not personally lead the team for this mission, but sent more than a dozen teams to go.

At the same time, infected persons appeared in bases 1 and 2. Because of the task of collecting dormant fungi released by Valenol, many free mercenaries were involved. As a result, many people underestimated the power of the dormant fungus. During the collection, they accidentally became a new fungus parent. One mother is enough to infect a base, and they can't even find out who the mother is.

Good fungi spread in the base at an extremely fast speed, and continue to grow and develop, causing huge troubles to humans.

The Tortas star consular alliance received the news soon, and was shocked, but also felt that the matter was tricky. They dare not rush to send troops to rescue, so they can only watch the changes first. They regarded Milos as the primary responsible person and ordered him to find a way to solve the crisis as soon as possible, otherwise his military rank would be revoked and the right to send him to a military court was reserved.

Milos didn't care about these, and directly shut down the communication, focusing all his attention on the next treatment work. He has not disclosed the research results of antibodies for the time being. After all, the time is too short and they cannot fully guarantee the safety of antibodies.

If there is another accident, the life or death of Milos alone does not matter, and it will be bad for everyone on the base.

Milos was checking the latest experiment report in the room. Suddenly he heard a knocking sound next to him. Looking back, Wangwang was waving his paw at the computer, and four words appeared on the screen: [I have a way. 】

Milos' eyes lit up and he called this guy several times, this time he finally responded.

He asked: "What is the solution?"

[Do not extract antibodies for now, I will tell you. 】

Milos was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, I promise you."

[You will not regret it. 】
