#201 - Chapter 201 Sectional Construction
The speed of viral mutation is extremely fast.
Once it spreads, it is very likely to bring disastrous consequences. This risk is absolutely not to be taken.
But in reality, he was overthinking it.
Although viruses mutate quickly, their biological nature leads them to tend towards symbiosis.
That is to say, after a virus finds a host, it does not want it to die, because this is a lose-lose situation.
In fact, the evolutionary path of viruses is constantly tending towards high transmissibility and low lethality.
It's just that the evolutionary process of viruses is not gentle, often accompanied by the death of a large number of lives.
But regardless, gene coding technology does embody its anti-biological side. This has transcended the scientific level and is more of a constraint from ethics and morality.
"Okay, Commander," Xiaolin replied.
… …
3 days later, July 6, 2055 AD.
Yan Zhengping's troop deployment plan submitted to the Military and Political Department has been successfully approved.
He casually made up a reason to merge the 220,000 troops from 12 military regions into 6 military regions.
After Dongfang Chen received the news, he ordered Dai Zheng to lead the special operations team members to the Southwest Military Region to implement the construction of underground defense works.
When installing the ultrasonic transmitter before, miniature queen bees had already been placed in each military sub-district.
It's just that the miniature queen bees have hardly developed in each military sub-district, because it is difficult for a zombie to appear within the troops.
Yan Zhengping currently has a stockpile of 1 million crystal cores. The actual construction cost of the six military sub-districts requires 3 million crystal cores, leaving a shortage of 2 million crystal cores.
So Dongfang Chen proposed a plan to Yan Zhengping to raise rats to earn crystal cores.
These days, Yan Zhengping did nothing but send people everywhere to dig holes and find rats.
They also set up many rat traps in the military area, with food placed inside. The door of the cage is one-way, and once the rat enters the cage, it can never get out.
Many hands make light work. Within 3 days, the soldiers in each military region rummaged through boxes and cabinets and actually caught about 10,000 healthy rats.
They started breeding and reproduction work according to the rat breeding method provided by Dongfang Chen.
In this regard, the soldiers in each military sub-district have a lot of opinions. Everyone doesn't understand why they should spend energy on raising rats. It's simply unheard of and unseen.
However, Yan Zhengping completely ignored it.
The main reason why Dongfang Chen sent Dai Zheng to lead the special operations team members to the Southwest Military Region was for confidentiality.
The matter of the queen bee is not suitable for anyone to know. Therefore, his own people need to handle the crystal cores, so that no one knows where the crystal cores went.
After Dai Zheng went to the Southwest Military Region, he first went to find Yan Fangfang.
Yan Fangfang had already prepared 1 million crystal cores.
Dai Zheng took over these crystal cores and transported them onto the plane.
The special operations team members divided the crystal cores into 6 groups on the plane, and then packed and sealed them separately.
Subsequently, these boxes filled with crystal cores were transported to 6 military sub-districts, including the headquarters.
It was not until about ten o'clock in the evening that all the crystal cores were transported.
After Dai Zheng completed this task, he returned to Binjiang Base.
Dongfang Chen asked Xiaolin to issue instructions to the miniature queen bees in the 6 military regions, and soon all the placed crystal cores were transferred.
Early the next morning, the underground defense works in the military sub-district began to quietly break ground.
The reason why it is said to be quiet is because the queen bee's construction of underground works is completely silent, and no construction traces can be seen from the ground at all.
In order to maximize efficiency, the underground defense works are designed as a 5-section structure for construction.
Once a section is completed, it can be activated. It can be understood that the entire underground space is divided into 5 parts, and each part is built one by one.
This is because 1 million crystal cores are not enough to complete the entire project, and there is still a shortage of 2 million crystal cores. At the same time, the supporting water circulation system, air circulation system, and power system must be built first. But the soldiers can't wait too long, and the risk factor is relatively high. Completing part of the project first, at least so that everyone can have a place to hide first, is very important.
If we wait until 3 million crystal cores are collected before starting construction, I don't know how many soldiers will be sacrificed for no reason. This is unacceptable to Yan Zhengping.
After the crystal cores were handed over, Yan Zhengping had been anxiously waiting in the office for Dongfang Chen to send someone over.
But until the next day, he didn't wait for anyone, nor did he wait for any news.
"Fangfang, what the hell is Xiaochen doing? The crystal cores were taken away yesterday, why hasn't he sent anyone to construct after such a long time?" Yan Zhengping asked.
"Dad, don't worry, hasn't it only been half a day? Besides, equipment has already entered the site last night, maybe someone will come in a while," Yan Fangfang comforted.
The equipment entering the site she was referring to was actually the packaged crystal cores.
Yan Fangfang didn't know the specific situation either, she sent a message to Dongfang Chen, but she hadn't received a reply yet.
Yan Zhengping was so anxious that he couldn't wait to build the base immediately. But Dongfang Chen at this time was still lying on the big bed in the base, snoring loudly.
He doesn't have the habit of getting up early.
