Chapter 145: Origin
Translator: Atlas StudiosEditor: Atlas Studios
Without hesitation, Occam took out a tube of blue potion and placed it in front of Alice.
“Wait a minute, isn’t this the T-Virus you left behind when you parted with Matt yesterday? Don’t tell me you want me to get infected with the T-Virus! ”
Alice, who had been very happy, jumped when she saw what Occam took out. She grimaced.
This was the T-Virus!
She had seen those people infected with the T-Virus before. All of them had become walking corpses.
‘What did Occam mean by taking this out?
Poison her?
She would die!
“Do you know the origin of this T-Virus?”
Seeing that Alice did not understand, Occam thought for a moment and roughly understood.
Alice understood that the source of the virus was after she came into contact with Angela. Now that the zombie crisis had not started in Raccoon City, Alice probably did not know much about the T-Virus. f𝙧ee𝘄𝐞𝚋𝐧૦ѵeƖ.c𝘰𝓶
Sure enough, Alice was puzzled when Occam asked, “Origin? Isn’t this virus developed by the umbrella company? What other origin is there?”
Alice was puzzled. The reason she had been a security agent and defended the special entrance was to protect the property of this umbrella company: the T-Virus.
According to Occam, the virus seemed to have another origin.
This made her curious.
“There was a doctor named Charles. He had a disease that paralyzed his lower limbs.”
“This disease will be passed down to future generations, causing her daughter, Angela, to suffer from the same disease. She has been walking on crutches since she was young.”
“If this goes on, she’ll be as paralyzed as her father.”
Seeing that Alice did not understand, Occam told her what he knew.
Alice would understand these things when the zombies in Raccoon City erupted. Since she was with him, she helped her understand them in advance.
“You mean the T-Virus was developed by this Dr. Charles? To treat her daughter?”
Alice was also a smart person. She immediately understood what Occam meant.
“Yes.”
“The T-Virus will revive the dead cells and revive the dead to become zombies. However, it also has one function, which is to cause uncontrollable mutations in the living.”
“However, if you use it at the same time as the antiviral serum, it will make people stronger and make people who can’t walk become able to walk freely.”
Occam did not hesitate. He took out another antiviral serum and continued to explain.
Infusing the T-Virus directly would turn a person into a living dead. That was only the first situation that they had encountered in the hive.
Actually, the original intention of this T-Virus research was not to turn people into living dead.
Its developer was Dr. Charles, who developed it to treat his daughter.
He succeeded.
However, his research was quickly taken over by the umbrella company.
However, what they cared about was not the healing ability of the virus, but the military value of allowing the dead to revive and the living to become stronger.
Therefore, the first batch of experimental zombies and crawlers was developed.
“Wait, that’s not right! Even if we use it simultaneously, it’s only to treat infected people. What has it got to do with superpowers?”
Alice was smart. Occam’s words seemed fine. After all, the actions of the umbrella company did prove that they were not good people.
But this had nothing to do with superpowers?
After Chad and Matt were infected, they also got injected with antiviral serums. However, they did not seem to have any special abilities!
“I don’t know. Maybe they’re infected with a mutated virus, and I’m letting you get infected with the original virus.”
“Moreover, your body’s genes are relatively special. After you are infected by the virus, you can resist the virus and serum at the same time. It can allow your cells to perfectly fuse with the virus, giving birth to a superpower that you can’t imagine.”
Occam did not pretend to know anything. He just said he did not know.
However, he guessed that it was because those people were infected with the mutated T-Virus, and he was going to inject Alice with the original T-Virus in high concentration.
Of course, it was also related to the cells of the human body.
Occam remembered that after Matt was infected, he could mutate and restore human memories.
Alice’s cells were even more special. They could perfectly fuse with the T-Virus without changing her appearance. It was definitely correct to inject them at the same time.
“My genes are special? Are you sure?”
Alice looked at Occam as if he knew a lot. He even knew that she had special genes.
But the problem was, why did she not know that her genes were special?
Could it be that Occam knew her better than she did?
Or had Occam secretly researched her genes?
This was terrifying. Alice looked at Occam warily.
He was a man who knew her body better than herself. This could not reassure her.
“You probably won’t believe me even if I tell you how I know. Let’s put it this way, just treat me as someone from a different parallel world. I can see your future. As for whether you believe me or not, you can choose.”
Helpless, Occam put down the viral and antiviral serum and turned to leave.
His relationship with Alice had not reached that stage.
It was normal for Alice to have doubts.
He would not hide it from Alice.
If she believed him, she would inject it and kill the zombies with him.
There was no point for Alice, who did not have the ability and still suspected him, to follow him.
“Wait a minute. I… believe you.”
Alice saw that Occam was about to leave and showed some struggle in her eyes.
Occam, who lives in parallel space-time, could see her future? Could this be any more ridiculous?’
How could she believe such a thing! 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢
However, watching Occam leave without hesitation, Alice felt as if she had suddenly lost something important in her heart.
She had a feeling that if Occam went out the door, he would never come back.
After struggling internally, Alice gritted her teeth and chose to believe Occam. Without hesitation, she picked up the T-Virus and the antiviral serum and stabbed them into her arm.
‘Wasn’t it just injecting the T-Virus and antiviral serum?
Even if Occam was wrong, the worst that could happen was that she would just get infected and then get treated.
At most, the antidote would be useless. After all, Occam had risked his life to save her time and time again.
Even if she died, what was there to be afraid of? She would just treat it as returning Occam’s life.
“Er! So straightforward?”
Occam did have the intention of leaving. It really was not a good idea to take a woman who could not trust him along the way.
However, he did not expect Alice to be so straightforward and stabbed her own upper arm.
By the time Occam turned back, Alice had two more injections in her arm.
“ah!”
Not long after, Alice screamed and her body began to shake and twitch.
In her body, the T-Virus flowed through her veins and spread throughout her body.
The antiviral serum was also activating Alice’s genes to form antibodies. It could be said that the immune system of her entire body was in an intense battle with the T-Virus. The shattered viral genes in the battle began to fuse with Alice’s genes.
In the corridor outside, the lady boss, who had finished drying her clothes on the roof, suddenly heard Alice’s painful voice from Occam’s room. She smiled strangely and said, “Don’t young people nowadays have any self-control? After playing for a night, they still continue during the day.. Be careful of
your kidneys!”
