289 The Virus Returns

In Sunset, in a place that was about 60 kilometers away from the Sacred Shield region. _{Please visit fr𝗲𝙚𝔀e𝙗𝓃oν𝐞𝑙. c𝚘𝘮}

A strong goshawk descended from the sky and perched on a tree branch outside a restricted military area.

The goshawk’s eyes were extremely sharp. It stood motionless as it watched the soldiers who were falling in at the military camp.

The goshawk was perched at the military camp’s entrance.

Nistan was a colonel in the military camp and was everyone’s senior officer.

“Soldiers, bring our protective suits. We’ll set off for the Holy Shield region immediately!”

“We have to protect all the intersections at the west gate of the Holy Shield region. The leaders have ordered that we destroy any creature that comes out of the west intersection.”

“In this mission, our weapons are high-temperature handheld and machine flamethrowers.”

Following Nistan’s order, everyone quickly received their protective suits and rushed into the military transport vehicles.

“Let’s go!”

Amidst the roar of the vehicles, a long line of military transport vehicles, flame thrower vehicles, and fuel vehicles went out of the military camp’s entrance. All the vehicles happened to pass by the road below the goshawk.

Three minutes later, Nistan, who was in the first vehicle , started coughing.

“Cough cough…”

“This damn weather. It’s freezing at night, and it’s damn hot during the day.”

“It caused me to catch a cold.” Nistan felt that he caught a cold because of the temperature difference.

“Cough cough…” At this moment, Misri, who was driving the car for him, couldn’t help but cough. He felt his neck itch.

As the pilot coughed, all the soldiers who were holding back the urge to cough could no longer hold back their coughing.

“Cough cough…”

Violent coughs rose and fell in the entire convoy.

“What’s going on?” Fear appeared on Nistan’s face. He was the commander of this military camp, so he knew some things that the soldiers did not.

He knew that a very powerful virus had appeared in the Holy Shield region.

Their symptoms now were exactly what it was like after one was infected with the virus.

Nistan’s heart sank when he thought of the description of the virus in the classified document.

After being infected by the virus, one would cough violently, and their entire lungs would be coughed out.

Five minutes later, people would suffocate to death from the virus.

Then, their bodies would stand up under the control of the virus and become the carriers and spreaders of the virus. They would become virus-controlled zombies.

“Didn’t the leaders say that the virus has been completely eliminated?”

“Why are we suddenly infected with the virus?!” Nistan was puzzled. Amidst the intense coughing, he leaned against the seat and couldn’t move.

“Cough cough cough…”

Lung tissues were coughed out of his lungs, making him feel extreme pain.

Originally, he wanted to send out the information about the virus to warn the leaders of the army.

But he couldn’t move at all.

Under the invasion of the virus, no one in the entire convoy could send any news out.

The driver was infected almost at the same time. When he started coughing, he could not continue to steer the vehicle.

He could only do an emergency brake.

However, the military vehicle was advancing very quickly. The vehicles behind could not react in time and slammed into the vehicles in front.

The vehicles carrying the fuel crashed under the impact, and then…

BOOM!

It exploded.

Then, like firecrackers all the cars were ignited and exploded.

More than 500 soldiers who had just come out of the military camp had died from the virus before the explosion happened.

The frenzied combustion of the fuel trucks after the explosion turned everyone’s corpses into charcoal.

The goshawk on the tree branch waited for the fire to subside. Its eyes were extremely sharp, as if it had intelligence. It kept staring at the exploding convoy.

After the fire was extinguished, it spread its wings. Its huge body with a wingspan of about one meter flew down and landed beside the convoy.

In front of him was Nistan’s charred body.

The goshawk pecked at Nistan’s corpse curiously and began to tear it apart as if it found it tasty.

…

Meanwhile, Dai Liming had rushed straight to Academician Lin Qu’s door.

“Director Dai, why are you here?” The smile on Academician Lin Qu’s face disappeared and he became vigilant when he saw Dai Liming.

Dai Liming was very interested in the Great Buckthorn fruit!

Academician Lin Qu did not like Dai Liming just because of this point alone.

“Academician Lin Qu, Li Chengqian asked me to look for you.” Dai Liming looked at Academician Lin Qu’s expression and quickly said.

“Didn’t you ask me to ask him about the Great Buckthorn fruit? Li Chengqian has already told me the effect of the Great Buckthorn fruit!”

When Academician Lin Qu heard the name ‘Great Buckthorn fruit’, he frowned and opened the door. He had been blocking Dai Liming from entering earlier.

“Come in!”

Dai Liming was overjoyed and quickly followed him in.

When he entered Academician Lin Qu’s house, a special hot and spicy aroma filled the air. It was a very special aroma that made people want to have a taste.

Dai Liming sniffed and looked around the living room several times, but he did not find the Great Buckthorn fruit. He couldn’t help but feel disappointed.

“Tell me, why did Li Chengqian ask you to come?”

“Academician Lin Qu, Li Chengqian told me that the Great Buckthorn fruit can quickly restore a person’s stamina, and it’s especially effective on older people. When I asked him how good the effect was, he asked me to try your fruit, so I came over,” Dai Liming said with a smile.

“Academician Lin Qu, you know that the people in the Divine Dragon Hall are overworked every day!”

“If this Great Buckthorn fruit is really that amazing… Send it to the leaders of the Divine Dragon Hall. It will be beneficial to the entire country.” Dai Liming’s face suddenly became serious.

Academician Lin Qu felt the pinch when he heard what Dai Liming said.

If Dai Liming came to him to ask for the Great Buckthorn fruit for himself, he could have refused.

However, Dai Liming had mentioned the leaders of the Divine Dragon Hall. It would be inappropriate not to give it to him.

“Academician Lin Qu, don’t worry, I am not asking for much. Just give me 10 fruits this time!”

“We need to test the specific ingredients in the Great Buckthorn fruit.”

“At the same time, we need to do a taste test. We will only let the leaders of the Divine Dragon Hall eat the Great Buckthorn fruit after ensuring that it was absolute safety.”

When Academician Lin Qu heard about ‘ten fruits’, he trembled and his heart ached.

When he heard Dai Liming say that it was only for experiments, his eyes widened. Ten Great Buckthorn fruits would be taken from him just for experiment.

If they really started eating, what would happen?

He was afraid that they would take all the Great Buckthorn fruits he had in one go!

What was he going to eat then?
