Chapter 395: Technician recovery, regional legend level +1
"Quick, disinfect everything... Don't leave any blind spots untouched."
Inside the hiding place, except for the technicians and Stephen who were in quarantine, everyone wore simple protective clothing to disinfect every location in the hiding place.
In the medical laboratory, Stephen also wore protective clothing and studied the blood sample in front of him with excitement.
"Incredible, this plague virus is like this, this kind of aggressiveness is simply unheard of. But what is the effect of this decoction? Why can't I see that this decoction has a restraining effect on the plague?"
This is also what Stephen couldn't figure out after thinking for a long time.
The blood sample in front of him was extracted from the technician. Although this new type of plague is very dangerous, it also made Stephen have a strong desire for knowledge.
Currently, Stephen is studying the mechanism of action of decoctions on plague microorganisms, and wants to try to develop a more effective way to treat plague.
But his progress is stuck. The reason is that through his observation, the Qingwen Baiduyin decoction cannot directly have an effective inhibitory effect on these microorganisms, and it can even be said that it has no effect.
But why does the plague temporarily suppress the technicians after taking these decoctions?
This question puzzled Stephen.
Seeing that the technician was about to take the decoction again, Stephen didn't want to miss this opportunity and went to observe immediately.
Tang Yu was already waiting there. Seeing Stephen coming, he looked over.
"How is it? Is the research effective?"
Stephen frowned and shook his head slightly.
"Boss, why do the ingredients in the decoction have no inhibitory effect on those microorganisms, but after the technician takes it, it will produce a suppressive effect? This is a question I can't figure out."
"This..." Tang Yu didn't understand medicine either, but he had a guess in his mind about Stephen's question.
After thinking about it, he still said this guess.
"Stephen, decoctions are different from other medicines. Other medicines directly inhibit viruses through the ingredients in the medicines to achieve the purpose of treatment, just like soldiers on the battlefield, charging directly to kill the enemy, so it is very intuitive to see.
But decoctions are very different. Their positioning is like an auxiliary. They will not directly kill the enemy, but by increasing the state of the human body, improving the body's own immune ability to fight against the virus. I think this may be the fundamental reason."
After all, this is not a very profound question. After experiencing the baptism of the information age in the previous life, although the specific methods are not clear, the basic principles of traditional Chinese medicine are still known.
It is nothing more than strengthening the body and eliminating evil. In other words, it is to strengthen the body's immunity by superimposing BUFF, and then trying to weaken the living space of external evil, so as to achieve the effect of curing the disease with medicine.
Stephen was also slightly stunned after hearing Tang Yu's words.
But because Tang Yu's example is very easy to understand, he also roughly understands the working principle of the decoction.
I understood it for a while.
"So that's it. The target of this decoction is the human body, not the plague."
"That... you can say that!"
Just at this time, the technician's medication time came, but the technician unexpectedly did not take the decoction, but kept looking at the skin of his arm with a somewhat unexpected expression, and a surprised expression on his face.
Tang Yu's pupils shrank slightly, and the corners of his mouth also curled up.
"The technician... has no reaction?"
The technician came back to his senses and said with a happy face: "Boss, it doesn't itch anymore! It really doesn't itch anymore!"
After getting confirmation, Tang Yu's heart was immediately relieved.
"Haha, good!"
"That's great, but we can't be careless. It may also be that after taking the decoction several times, the plague has some adaptability. You continue to be isolated and observed here for a day, have a good rest, and contact me immediately if you have any discomfort."
Stephen approved of Tang Yu's arrangement.
"Boss is right, technician, you still need to rest well now, and wait until you are completely fine."
The technician's recovery is very important to Tang Yu.
Then, news came from Hannibal that three of the infected refugees had also shown signs of recovery.
"The technician used five doses of the decoction, and the three refugees used six doses. It seems that the probability of this decoction completely removing the plague is between 10% and 20%."
Although it is much smaller than the original 25% probability, it also gave Tang Yu a reassurance that the decoction is still effective.
Although the effect is much weakened, as long as it is effective, its value will not change at all.
Especially in this case of death from infection.
Because of the technician's infection, the entire hiding place was in a tense state for the whole morning, and no one had time to rest or eat. Now when the news of the technician's recovery came out.
In addition, the disinfection work of various locations in the hiding place was completed, and everyone felt hungry.
But now, even Tu Shanxi, a gourmet, has no intention of making food. She has not been idle today and has been helping with disinfection.
After everyone ate some canned food, they turned their attention back to the outside world.
As Tang Yu expected, under this world-destroying plague, the number of survivors in each city decreased rapidly, and the world channel and regional channel were full of voices of fear of death.
Tang Yu was helpless and could only start selling the anti-epidemic supplies that he had stored before.
Gas masks and simple protective clothing were sold out in just 2 minutes after they were put on the flea market in the morning.
This time, Tang Yu put the remaining air respirators, anti-gas filter canisters, etc. on the shelves, and they were immediately sold out.
The scene was crazy.
Just after these supplies were sold out, Tang Yu obtained a new regional legend.
[The number of survivors' disaster coins reached 10,000, regional legend +1]
Tang Yu almost forgot about this task.
In the past two days, Tang Yu had conquered the other two agents and completely controlled the four urban areas they managed for more than seven days, so he obtained two regional legends.
The total value of regional legends has reached 19 points.
Now with this point, the total regional legend immediately reached 20 points.
However, he did not obtain a new world legend this time.
He was a little disappointed.
But if nothing unexpected happens, Tang Yu will have two world legends credited tomorrow.
Tomorrow is the timeline for him to completely control the rebels for seven days, which means that he has completely controlled CBS Laboratory and Quelu City for more than seven days.
The requirements for obtaining world legends have been met.
"I didn't expect it! After so much trouble, I'm finally going to get three world legends. It's not easy!"
