Star Railway: Building a Foundation from the Beginning

Epidemic doctors?!

Seeing the figure under the stairs not far away, "Xing" was instantly stunned, almost thinking that he had lost his eyes.

The Foundation game seems to be quite friendly, and as soon as she enters the game, she directly bumps into her target.

"Star" habitually raised his hand to grab the weapon, trying to grab the weapon from the front, but several times in a row, nothing happened.

It was only then that she realized that this was a Foundation game, not the real world.

In the game, she did not inherit her real-life powers, unable to summon bats, use fire guns, let alone open portals, or airborne creation engines.

Fortunately, no matter how weak she is in the game, it is also fake.

As long as she is still strong in reality, it is nothing.

Just then, she suddenly heard a rhythmic tapping.

"Knock knock!"

Short and crisp.

"Star" looked back and saw a girl in a bulletproof vest knocking on the car window.

The pink-haired blue eyes are none other than Esther.

Not far behind Esta lay a dozen heavily armed agents.

They were all pitch black, holding steel guns in their hands, standing or half-crouching, the muzzles of their guns crossed the bunker in front of them, and maintained a vigilant posture.

"Star" shook his head, had a certain understanding of the current situation, raised his hand on the door handle, and pushed the door...... But there was no response.

Only then did she notice that the door next to the driver's seat was partially recessed inward.

Stopped not far away, inside a vehicle with a street light embedded in the front of the car.

A man is lying on the steering wheel, unconscious, and a mother and daughter are cowering in a corner of the car, staring out the window in horror with their mouths open.

Obviously, after the outbreak of the zombie crisis, for some reason, a civilian vehicle first crashed into the car of the "star", and then lost control and crashed into the street lamp.

Seeing that the door next to him couldn't be opened, "Xing" hurriedly unbuckled the seat belt on his body, kicked open the co-pilot's door, and climbed out.

Esta helped Star out of the vehicle and ducked aside:

"You're the only one, March and Xiaobai aren't with you?"

"Nope. "

"Star" shook her head, she was also curious about where Bai Xuan and March Qi had gone, and was about to ask Esta the same question, but the other party didn't seem to have a clue.

Of course, there is no clue, in addition to Bai Xuan and March Qi's whereabouts are unknown, there is also the current situation.

This is the file of Containment-049's plague doctor, right?

She's not mistaken, right?

Why are there zombies?

Is it the leakage of the Containment-008 Zombie Virus? Could it be that there are multiple containment objects in one file at the same time?

In fact, the file of Containment-049 is actually a post-apocalyptic situation?

And also......

How are they supposed to contain the doctors?

Is it a friendly exchange, or is it the use of force to tie the other side?

Do guns really have a deterrent effect on epidemic doctors?

What is the likely response of the epidemic doctors if they attack?

What are the possible consequences if the doctor is provoked?

Unconsciously, the "star" did not realize that in just a few seconds, he had already asked a series of questions and began to think of countermeasures.

It was also the first time she realized how much wisdom and sacrifice of Foundation personnel were hidden under the simple three words of the Foundation's mission statement.

Star threw her barrage of questions to Esta, who hesitated as if she had been caught in the silence technique.

A moment later, the acting stationmaster of the Black Tower space station gave the most concise answer:

"I don't know. "

Esta had a faint feeling that these humanoids, who looked like zombies, were not zombies, and had no direct connection to the zombie virus.

They are more likely to have been born as a result of the Plague Doctor, and are designated either Containment-049-1 or Containment-049-2 within the Foundation.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered Bai Xuan's prompt before entering the game.

"Plague. "

"Plague?" "Star" looked puzzled, "You mean, these zombies have something to do with some kind of plague?"

"Just guessing," Esta looked at the humanoid entities.

They can only be said to have a human form, as long as they are human, but if they look at them a few times, they will no longer be classified as humans.

Or, the category of the living.

It just exists, it is a distortion and desecration of the natural order, an eerie echo, a satire of life.

Their skin was pale as paper, almost transparent, and a network of blue-black blood vessels was clearly visible.

They were once the living, but now they are distorted by the imprint of death, and their eyes are hollow, without any light of life.

There was an indescribable aura on his body, neither the warmth of a living person nor the rancid stench of a corpse, but a chilling sense of death.

Esta frowned, sensing a sense of disobedience in the monsters.

Seem...... The realm of life and death is blurred in them.

"Epidemic Doctor...... Plague Doctor...... Plague ......"

Esta muttered, and suddenly there was an extremely bold conjecture in her heart:

"Star, do you think it's possible...... The group of zombies were actually infected with the plague, and after being cured by the epidemic, they became like this. "

"It's not impossible to ......"

Although this statement may sound bizarre, in the containment object, in the face of anomalies, even the most bizarre things can happen, and even the most illogical things can be staged.

"Star" doesn't have any other ideas, the zombie crisis is going on, and if you don't try to solve the problem, no one knows what will happen next.

"So what do we do now?"

"Star" took out the pistol from his waist, and after loading it, he held the gun and shot it twice at the ankle of a zombie.

It feels good......

The first time he used a firearm, the "star" had an indescribable sense of familiarity, as if he had already mastered firearms, as long as it was a target within an effective range, he would shoot wherever he wanted.

But the zombies' movements were not affected.

Two black blood flowers emerged from its ankle, and before it could stagger two steps, the blue and white flesh of the wound quickly reborn and completed the repair.

The corners of Star's and Esta's eyes twitched.

Fortunately, at this moment, a series of gunshots suddenly rang out, "Da Da Da".

I saw that another team had completed its deployment and was using machine guns to suppress the activities of zombies.

"Yes, of course...... First rescue the family who was in a car accident. "

Esta didn't have a clue, but the plague doctor was still sitting on the steps, taking notes.

There was neither an attack nor any signs of escape.

So, first rescue the family of three who were in a car accident, and then let his agents administer amnestics......

This should be in line with Foundation containment procedures regarding how to respond to witnesses at the containment site. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Maybe you can trigger some hidden quests.

......

Nothing happened.

There was no hidden mission, and there was no movement from the epidemic doctors.

The ordinary family was rescued by the ordinary people, and the ordinary agents performed the amnestics in the ordinary way.

How......

Just as Esta and Star are forced to start playing the zombie game, a translucent dialog box suddenly pops up in their field of vision.

[Zhao Camera: Hey, where are you guys? I searched around the site, but I didn't see any of you. 】

[Fusheng Xuanbai Venerable: Go out on duty, and find out where the epidemic doctor is by the way. [Picture]]

In the picture, it is a quiet and peaceful picture, children playing on the side of the street, and golden retrievers lying on the ground basking in the sun. []

There is no shadow of the end of the world.

[Zhao Camera: Xiaobai, your ID is quite fun...... But, it's not a problem to look around for Containment-049 like this, don't wait for the Typs to be ready, we don't even know where the plague doctor is. 】

[Zhao Camera: By the way, is Stationmaster Esta and "Star" by your side?]

[Floating Xuan Bai Venerable: No...... I wonder if they didn't know there was also an intra-team chat feature. 】

Looking at the messages sent by March 7 and Bai Xuan, both "Star" and Esta were a little nervous, and it was conceivable that without this kind of function, searching for people all over the world would become a nightmarish experience.

Seeing Star's inquiring gaze, Esta stuck out her tongue in embarrassment:

"Don't look at me, I really don't know. "

"I only played it once in advance, and it's not very clear what features are available in the game. "

"Okay. "Star" spread out his right hand and emptied the magazine at the wandering zombies.

Not to mention, this thing is much better than a bat.

It's just that it's embarrassing to have no bullets.

Taking advantage of the window, Esta hurriedly followed suit and initiated the message:

[Astronomy enthusiast: Ah...... Sorry, just knew there was this feature. 】

[Astronomy enthusiast: I'm with "Star", and I've found a plague doctor, but there are a lot of zombies here. 】

As she spoke, Esta took a picture of the scene, and specially circled the epidemic doctor in the photo.

[Astronomy enthusiasts: [Picture] [Picture] [Picture] [Picture]

[Zhao Camera: Stationmaster Esta and "Star" are together...... Wait, why are there so many agents there...... Please send a positioning, I have an idea]

[Astronomy enthusiasts: positioning?

[Astronomy enthusiasts: [Real-time coordinate sharing has been turned on - Montauban, southwest of France]]

......

On the other side, the Foundation site.

March 7 searched the Foundation system for the city of Montauban, in southwestern France.

In the next second, a string of relevant information appeared on the screen.

"How can it be that it is basically a case of missing persons......"

March 7 scrolled through the page and saw a recent message.

"Oh, that makes sense. "

[Zhao Camera: A series of unknown disappearances occurred in Montauban, southwest of France]

[Zhao Camera: The senior management of the Foundation suspected that this series of unknown disappearances was related to the anomaly, so they went to conduct a surprise inspection of local residents]

[Zhao Camera: uh...... Could those zombies be the missing people......]

[Trailblazer: So, are there any further instructions for what we are going to do next?]

[Floating Xuan Bai Venerable: Need a spoiler?]

[Zhao Camera: Don't, knowing the answer in advance is not in line with the pioneering spirit...... Xiaobai, take more pictures of dogs]

[Pathfinder: +1]

[Astronomy enthusiast: I have an idea, first clean up all the zombies, and then try to communicate with the epidemic doctor]

[Zhao Camera: Eh, I thought I had to kill the epidemic doctor first...... After all, the thief captures the king first......]

[Zhao Camera: Xiaobai, is this the correct answer?]

[Fusheng Xuanbai Venerable: I just saw a very cute dog]

......

"It seems that the cat's white pages have been added a little too much this time, 1/35 of the amount, just 1/11 more than usual will cause the patient to become more aggressive, huh...... Let me write it down. "

"Elekamimi- aDom (of Zhao Zhao) u... Mita... domu... adada"

The plague doctor sat on the steps, muttering to himself as he took notes.

After a moment, he nodded, and the huge beak mask swayed up and down, seeming satisfied.

"Good. "

"Oh, you thugs, be nice to my patients!"

The plague doctor roared.

"Patient?" said Esta frowned, the answer to the mystery already on the horizon.

But she really didn't expect that the epidemic doctor would treat this group of zombies as patients, could it be that the zombies in his eyes were different?

Whatever the answer, it didn't prevent her from giving the order for a general attack.

- Until the final order is issued, the agents have maintained maximum restraint and only cleared out the zombies that pose a clear threat.

As for those who wandered not far from the plague doctors, they only maintained the necessary vigilance.

"Fire!"

Suddenly, the gunfire rang out, and all the agents present pulled the trigger almost simultaneously.

The zombie's regeneration ability is terrifying, but in the face of pouring guns, there is a limit after all.

In less than two minutes, all the zombies had turned into rotten meat, and although they were still wriggling, they could no longer gather and form and complete regeneration.

"Alright," the plague doctor sighed, tucking the note back into the inner pocket of his cloak.

Then, he picked up the silver-encrusted cane against the wall and pinned it to his waist.

"It's time to treat the next patient. "

The plague doctor touched the pendant on his chest, said so to himself, and walked down the steps.

"I'm sorry, sir, I'm afraid you'll have to come with us first. "

Esther and Star vigilantly raised their guns and led dozens of agents to surround the doctor.
