287 As Timid as a Mouse
In the Divine Dragon Software Company, Li Chengqian saw the destruction on the screen and suddenly stood up from his seat.
“Sunset actually used a hydrogen bomb!”
“What determination!”
The cameras connected to the big screen kept switching under Bai Ze’s control. When a camera was destroyed, it would switch to the nearest camera that was still functioning.
At the same time, the military satellite images of Sunset and Divine Dragon were transmitted to the big screen in front of Li Chengqian in real time under Bai Ze’s control.
The huge fireball that erupted from the hydrogen bomb was like the sun, instantly annihilating everything. Nothing survived.
That terrifying scene stunned Li Chengqian.
“Master, according to my calculations, the fireball from the hydrogen bomb that was set off covers all the urban areas of the Holy Shield region.”
“IThe temperature at the outermost edge of the coverage range has instantly increased to about 200 degrees.”
“The zombies in the Holy Shield region have all been destroyed.”
“On the ground, there is a 99.99% probability that the airborne virus has been eliminated!”
Bai Ze analyzed the situation after the explosion.
However, Li Chengqian’s face remained solemn. Although the hydrogen bomb was powerful, the terror of the asphyxiation virus had exceeded everyone’s expectations.
“In the Master of All Professions game, we’ve used all kinds of methods to eliminate the virus.”
“We’ve used hydrogen bombs too.”
“However, it can only stop the spread of the virus, but it can’t completely destroy it.”
“There are indeed no more airborne viruses on the ground! However, there are still viruses underground and in the water. The birds that flew out of the Holy Shield region also carry viruses.”
If the asphyxiation virus was so easy to deal with, why would the human population shrink from ten billion to tens of millions within half a year?
Even if Sunset bombarded Earth with hydrogen bombs, it was unknown if the virus would be eliminated. In any case, the human race would have become extinct.
Even if all the viruses had fortunately been eliminated by the hydrogen bomb, did they really think that the aliens would stop there?
A biological weapon that was lethal to Earthlings was nothing more than a toy to aliens.
They could continue to send viruses to Earth at any time.
“A vaccine. The only way now is a vaccine!” Li Chengqian muttered.
If he wanted to develop a vaccine against the asphyxiation virus, he had to obtain the live virus.
However, the asphyxiation virus was too toxic. Any living person who approached it would die in a few minutes.
Therefore, Li Chengqian was prepared to use remote-controlled robots to obtain samples of the asphyxiation virus.
To humans, the terrifying asphyxiation virus was deadly. But to robots, they were harmless.
“Bai Ze, call out the blueprint of the virus collection robot. Let’s keep working!” Li Chengqian picked up a welding helmet and held a welding torch in his hand. He was about to continue welding the virus collection robot according to the blueprint on the big screen.
At this moment, an unfamiliar number called. Bai Ze picked up the call under Li Chengqian’s signal.
“Hello, Li Chengqian. I’m Dai Liming from the Infectious Disease Control Center. I just asked Academician Lin qu for your number. There are some things I want to understand from you.”
While Dai Liming was speaking, Dai Liming’s biodata had already appeared on the big screen.
Li Chengqian also knew about his position as the head of the provincial Infectious Disease Control Center.
“Hello, Director Dai!” Li Chengqian placed the welding torch on the workbench.
“Li Chengqian, since you were able to discover the Sunset virus situation right away, you must already know that Sunset had used a hydrogen bomb.” Dai Liming’s voice was deep and had the authority of someone who had been used to power. However, in the process of talking to Li Chengqian, it was obvious that he was trying to downplay his power.
“According to our calculations, the virus in the Holy Shield region has been eliminated after Sunset’s decisive actions!”
“We want to hear your opinion!” Dai Liming’s voice was extremely sincere.
“My opinion?”
“My opinion is to maintain the current measures and not let any foreigners enter or leave the country!”
“Don’t let any aircraft from any country fly over our airspace.”
“Don’t let anything or anyone from any other country enter our country!”
“We have to destroy anything that comes from outside decisively! Just like how Sunset treated the Holy Shield region.”
“We will maintain such measures, and continue to observe the situation around the world. If no terrifying virus appears in half a year, we can remove the current prevention and control measures,” Li Chengqian said very seriously.
The asphyxiation virus was too terrifying. Before the vaccine was developed, they could not let this terrifying virus enter Divine Dragon Country.
Once a carrier of the virus entered the Divine Dragon Country, at least a billion people would die from the virus.
Therefore, any measure was necessary! Absolutely necessary!
On the other end of the line, in the provincial Infectious Disease Control Center, Dai Liming nodded after hearing Li Chengqian’s words.
He was the head of the provincial Infectious Disease Control Center and had already watched the video provided by Li Chengqian.
He was extremely vigilant and wary of the virus that he saw in the video. It could kill people within a few minutes.
Faced with a virus that was so infectious and lethal, he felt that any measure was necessary.
However, Qian Fumin, the head of the Trade Department who was right in front of him, clearly didn’t think so.
“Old Dai, give me the phone. I’ll talk to Li Chengqian!” Qian Fumin frowned tightly, his eyes filled with disapproval.
He had also watched the video of the virus outbreak. It was indeed terrifying to the extreme. It made his hair stand on end and gave him the chills.
However, not long after, he saw Sunset’s hydrogen bomb and its huge fireball devour everything.
It was extremely shocking!
After seeing the terrifying power of the hydrogen bomb destroy everything, Qian Fumin felt that nothing in this world could withstand the power of the hydrogen bomb.
Anything would disappear under the bombardment of the hydrogen bomb.
It was the same for viruses!
Now that the virus had clearly been eliminated by the hydrogen bomb, Li Chengqian was simply overreacting by making such suggestions.
“Hello, Li Chengqian. I’m Qian Fumin, the head of the Trade department!”
“The control measures you proposed might not be achievable.”
“The price is too high!”
“Because the entire world has become inter connected as one.”
“If we adopt the prevention and control measures you mentioned just now… our country’s economic development will be greatly affected.”
“There might even be a huge recession.”
“Half a year doesn’t seem like a long time, but it’s simply destructive to our domestic import and export companies and related industries.”
“Millions of people will lose their jobs and their livelihood!”
“When millions of people lose their jobs, their families will be affected. At least twenty million people will ultimately be affected.”
“I don’t agree with your suggestion! I think you’re too cautious! You’re being overly cautious!” Qian Fumin’s words were just short of saying that Li Chengqian was as timid as a mouse.
