MTL - Evolved From Polluting the World-Chapter 8 tower

"Are you scared?"

Qiao Xun reluctantly replied:

"Sir, you don't have to ask me that every time you see me."

Zhou Sibai smiled,

"Well, it looks like you're used to it."

"It's just three things."

"Also, don't call me 'Sir', my staff is not a military and political officer. Just call me by my name, I'm 'Zhou Sibai'."

Qiao Xun shrugged, he didn't care about names.

"Are you here to ask me about the eight-legged frog man?"

Zhou Sibai has a strong smile. He likes a person like Qiao Xun who is straight to the point and doesn't gossip around.

"Well, you know, this is my job."

"Sit down. Want something to drink?"

"no need."

The two sat opposite each other on the sofa.

"Before that, please allow me to check some of your body." Zhou Sibai said and immediately explained, "Don't worry, it won't cause any harm to you. Anyone who has been in contact with polluted creatures should be checked according to the procedures."

In order to demonstrate the legitimacy of his actions, Zhou Sibai took out his credentials.

Qiao Xun looked at it, and it said:

"Zhou Sibai from the Emergency Response Center".

There are no job titles, just departments and names.

Joe asked:

"What is an emergency response center?"

Zhou Sibai thought about it and thought that Qiao Xun was no longer an ordinary person, and he was very likely to be qualified to be recruited, so he said:

"This is just an empty shell institution that is convenient to act on the surface. In fact, I am a member of the 'Tower'."

"tower?"

"You can understand it as an organization specializing in metal diseases, polluting organisms and evolutionaries. Specifically, I can't tell you bluntly, you need to accept it a little bit under the conditions of reasonable inquiry. After all, this is beyond normal cognition. things that I can't feed you."

Qiao Xun closed the corners of his eyes slightly and said with a smile:

"It seems that this world is far from the world I know."

"You're optimistic. At least, more optimistic than most of the people I've seen who have suffered from pollution incidents."

Qiao Xun stretched his back,

"Being pessimistic can't make my life better. People, you have to comfort yourself a lot of the time."

Zhou Sibai's mature and angular face has a strong smile, which is even more attractive.

"Then, I'm going to examine you."

"let's start."

Zhou Sibai operated on his communication watch, and then turned his palm towards Qiao Xun.

After a while, a few lines appeared on the screen:

[Pollution value: 0 (no pollution)

Spirit: 60 (normal)

Evaluation: Ordinary people]

This result made Zhou Sibai frown.

When Qiao Xun saw it, he asked:

"Any problem?"

Zhou Sibai shook his head:

"No, not only is your body not polluted, but... it is exceptionally clean."

Qiao Xun breathed a sigh of relief, like the rest of his life, and said happily:

"That's good, I'm afraid of contracting metal disease like Qin Lin did."

Zhou Sibai looked at Qiao Xun, and could not see the slightest abnormality in his demeanor and actions. I thought to myself, this kid has been in contact with the polluted creatures, but the pollution value is still 0. This is the first time he has encountered such a situation, and he does not know how to judge.

"However, I'm curious, how did you kill that eight-legged frog man."

Qiao Xun said naturally:

"He's too arrogant, he really thinks I'm just a powerless person. In fact, I usually do a lot of exercise, my physique is good, and how can I put it, my mentality is better, I'm not nervous, take advantage of him He broke his stomach when he pressed me to the ground. Then I ran away."

"that is it?"

Qiao Xun asked blankly:

"Is there anything special?"

Obviously, Qiao Xun lied, but he played it for real.

Most people's judgments of true and false do not follow objective facts, especially in the absence of clear evidence.

Therefore, in Zhou Sibai's view, Qiao Xun is like a person who is happy to have escaped.

Zhou Sibai couldn't interrogate him, but he wanted to use his spiritual talent "third eye" to explore Qiao Xun's situation just like interrogating prisoners. But he, who has always pursued "procedural justice", could not conduct interrogation privately. After all, Qiao Xun was the victim of the pollution incident, not the initiator. In addition, the pollution value of Qiao Xun is 0, and he is judged as an ordinary person by the "tower", and he cannot be reviewed for the absorption nature from the perspective of the evolutionary.

He shook his head and said:

"It's nothing. I just find it unbelievable to know that the eight-legged frogman escaped from an eight-man control team, and ended up dying in your hands."

Qiao Xun scratched his head, smiled and said:

"It's probably the best punishment for the arrogant to stumble."

Zhou Sibai was in a complicated mood. At the decision-making level, he made a big mistake in the eight-legged frog man incident, but fortunately, it did not cause any major public crisis. On the contrary, the eight-legged frog man fell into the hands of Qiao Xun, the "Lengtouqing", which would be his credit.

He couldn't be happy, and he didn't have the slightest sense of accomplishment. This feat is completely picked up.

Failing to learn more from Qiao Xun, Zhou Sibai let out a breath, smiled reluctantly, and said:

"Dr. Qiao, so be it. Do you have any questions?"

Qiao Xun thought for a while, looked at the door of the entrance, and asked:

"My neighbor Qin Lin seems to have dirty things in his house, will you deal with it?"

"Yes, a specialist will handle it."

"Do I have a chance to see him?"

Zhou Sibai shook his head regretfully:

"No, polluted creatures are generally not allowed to come into contact with outsiders. Of course, if he embarks on the path of evolution and is accepted by the tower, then he can."

"Evolution...Is it difficult?"

"Judging from the latest data from 'Tower', the current evolution rate of ordinary people is only 1.5%."

Qiao Xun suddenly said without reason:

"If all 8 billion people in the world are polluted, wouldn't 120 million people evolve?"

"It's not like that. Different pollution sources have different pollution levels, resulting in different transmission degrees and pollution rates. 1.5% is just a comprehensive value. Your friend is infected by source metal, and the evolution rate of source metal infection is different. Only 0.08%, the vast majority of people infected with source metals either cannot bear the direct death, or become polluted creatures that are opposed to the evolutionary."

Qiao Xun paused, his tone a little dull,

"Source metal, what exactly is it?"

Zhou Sibai subconsciously looked at the night sky outside the window, his eyes were distant and mysterious.

"We still know very little about the research on source metals. We only know that the mystery of 'becoming a god' is hidden in it."

Qiao Xun never thought that the word "becoming a god" would come out of Zhou Sibai's mouth. He thought it would only come from an extreme theist like the Eight-Legged Frogman.

Zhou Sibai realized that he had said too much, so he stood up, calmed down, and said with a smile:

"Dr. Qiao, that's it, I can't tell you too much. These things are still in the confidential stage."

"How long will this stage last?"

"Who knows, maybe a year, maybe ten years, maybe... a month. The world changes dramatically and unpredictably, and the only thing we can do is play our part. When you wake up tomorrow, you can live your life the same way. life, I can still inspect pollution incidents everywhere.”

Qiao Xun smiled and said:

"I've always wondered if things like those in zombie movies would happen."

Zhou Sibai took a deep look at Qiao Xun, didn't say much, just said warmly:

"Doctor Qiao, have a heart of awe for the unknown. It's not a bad thing. Never face the night gently. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

After speaking, he nodded and left.

Awe. Qiao Xun muttered.

Looking at my hands, feeling the new ability of my body, thinking of the words of the eight-legged frog man, "You don't know how attractive you are." This attraction is by no means the regulation of hormones between men and women, it is extremely It is most likely the attraction of food to people.

Qiao Xun had to put himself in a dangerous situation before thinking about what he should do.

In the second half of the night, he didn't sleep, and kept "stocking" on the shopping website.

Mainly food, water, medicine, self-defense weapons and other things.

What happened today is beyond recognition. A harmless guy like Qin Lin will turn into a monster in the blink of an eye, not to mention other people.

If metal disease breaks out in a large area, then these resources will become extremely precious. Just a big talk about "lack of salt" can make the market robbed of salt, not to mention the real crisis? Even if such a crisis does not come soon, food and water are necessities of life.

In short, it's not a bad thing to prepare more.

Even after staying up all night, Qiao Xun didn't feel tired at all, and was even full of energy.

Standing in front of the vanity table, looking at himself in the mirror. Mental outlook is much better than before. He used to be handsome and sunny. Because of his work, he sat in front of the computer for a long time, and his skin condition became very poor, but now, in just one night, there has been a visible change, like—

Back to the youthful college days overnight.

In that era when you could please girls just by their looks.

Facing himself in the mirror, Qiao Xun grinned.

"The world is changing, and so am I."
