After making a call at a nearby store, Gu Jun and the others stayed in this store. Ten minutes later, first the police arrived and blocked the place, and then a convoy from the Bureau of Secrets arrived, taking them into isolation vehicles and also controlling the people who had been in contact with them.

The biggest reason why Tianji personnel arrived so quickly is that there is a branch of Tianji Bureau in this city, and it is quite large.

This is Dongzhou City.

Gu Jun didn't know if there was any special connection, but he didn't believe in coincidence. This at least showed that the space in Dongzhou City was closely connected with the Dreamland. However, as far as this collapsed dream passage is concerned, the ancestors said before that no living creatures have come and gone since they discovered it.

Dongzhou City is not among the epidemic areas this time, but due to frequent incidents in recent years, the city has always been heavily guarded, especially after this disaster.

There is a mature and fast procedure for isolating and handling suspicious persons. Now the sixteen people in the problem team and the items they brought will be transported to the isolation base on the outskirts of the city for inspection. After confirming that there are no problems, the headquarters will make next arrangements.

On the way to the isolation base, Gu Jun, as the captain, spoke alone with several leaders at the headquarters command center.

All sixteen members of the team survived, which was a surprise to everyone at the headquarters, because the situation brought out by the Dream Team was not optimistic at that time, and everyone thought that Feng Wei could not be saved.

The recovery of Gu Jun's appearance is another good news. Yao Shinian said meaningfully: "Ajun, your face has come back just right."

"Why?" Gu Jun was confused, and Director Yao's tone was not a joke.

Then he knew the reason and also learned some of the latest developments here.

Ten days ago, on the night of August 3, the problem team entered the dreamland. Nearly three hours later, they solved the Thousand-Eyed Giant Insect in the early morning of the 4th.

After the abnormal power of the new Legionella was broken, the spread of the disease was greatly reduced. Researchers determined through microscopic observation that its minimum volume returned to more than 0.3 microns, and the n95 mask became effective; its wind transmission range and survival time in water Wait, it's only slightly stronger than ordinary Legionella.

Therefore, the epidemic is under control, and there is no need to block the whole country. It only needs to block several epidemic areas such as Shanhai City, and strictly control the traffic situation across the country.

The epidemic area that was almost abandoned before now has a large number of personnel of all types stationed in it, and they have been carrying out anti-epidemic and disaster relief work in recent days.

All units have many difficulties in their work, and medical staff have to fight on the front line.

At best, the progression of the disease has slowed in patients around the world, and erythromycin has had a weak effect.

The generic version of the "No. 1 drug" has not yet been 100% completed, but although the first batch of generic drugs released previously were lacking in weight, they had good effects when used on patients who voluntarily participated in clinical trials, and were almost equivalent to erythromycin. For common Legionnaires' disease, this is what cures the patient.

It's just that the first batch of patients were already too ill when the abnormal power of the bacteria was destroyed, and they couldn't get effective treatment at that time, so the number of casualties was very high.

Speaking of this, Yao Shinian and Tong Ye did not give specific figures, and their tone was very serious. They talked about the naval battle again. The work of salvaging the fragments of the ghost ship and the bodies of the deep divers is still continuing. What is certain is that But there is no Seabird in it.

The investigation work is also in progress. This time, the world is jointly investigating the afterlife society, the R'lyeh cult, the Rogers theory that Gu Jun doubts, etc.

Countries around the world are determined to eradicate those evil organizations in one fell swoop, but cooperation will naturally not be easy. Citi, Russia, England... no country has its own agenda. But everyone familiar with the matter knows that in dealing with this disaster, the country where the Tianji Bureau is located is always at the forefront.

For such a huge global disaster, the country cannot and does not need to hide it. What it has told the public is that it is a new type of Legionnaires' disease that is within the normal cognitive range.

"In the past two years, a lot of changes have taken place around the world, especially this time, they all exploded."

Yao Shiniang sighed, "We have intelligence. Some countries such as Citigroup may announce the existence of supernatural forces to the public and disclose their own processing departments. We have to watch the situation. Arjun, be prepared anyway. You may represent Our Tianji Bureau has entered the public eye as a model figure."

Gu Jun immediately understood that once Citigroup announced it, their country would have to follow suit, so his face became important.

Director Yao has simply said that there should be some situations that he does not understand.

Am I a hero? Gu Jun thought, maybe, but he is definitely not the only hero this time. He thought of those eyes and faces...

"How is He Feng, Shanhai City's disease control expert now?" Gu Jun asked, thinking about this matter these days.

Yao Shinian was silent over there, and Tong Ye said: "He Feng passed away during the day on the 4th and did not survive. However, his wife and children are fine, and his condition is stable now."

"Oh..." Gu Jun also fell silent. Expert He is a hero, both for his responsibilities and for his family.

He then asked how the other disease control personnel at Jiangxing Town Hospital that day were doing. Tong Ye said that they all died in the line of duty, and there were many medical staff who died in the line of duty.

"Master Tong, tell me the death toll currently announced." Gu Jun asked, "I can bear it."

But when he heard that terrible number, he was silent for a long time without saying a word...

After ending the call, Gu Jun told the team members the latest situation and death toll. He knew that their mental state could bear it and they had the right to know.

No matter it was Uncle Dan, Lou Xiaoning, Peacock or Feng Wei, after hearing that number, the joy of returning from victory instantly faded away.

More than 500,000 patients have died in Shanhai City and other places, and combined with epidemics in various countries around the world, this number exceeds 2 million.

In 1917, typhus in Russia caused about 3 million deaths in the country; in 1918-1919, the Spanish Flu infected about 1 billion people and killed 20-40 million people around the world. At that time, the global population was only about 17 billion people.

This new type of Legionnaires' disease has killed more than 2 million people worldwide.

Everyone arrived at the isolation base in a depressed mood. After receiving a series of inspections and review reports, they moved into single isolation rooms.

Gu Jun tried reading and meditating, but when he thought about the huge group of people behind that death number, although ordinary, they could also be He Feng, Shen Haoxuan, Huang Lin... He felt heartbroken and uncomfortable. It wasn't until that night when he saw an unexpected visitor that he felt relieved.

"I'm here to inspect the goods." Wu Shiyu was wearing an air-tight protective suit. From the moment he walked into the isolation room, his eyes were looking at his face.

"Understood." Gu Jun nodded and sat down on a chair upright, "You can test it."

"Um, um." Wu Shiyu walked around him, looking at this and that, smelling his hair and touching his face, "That's the smell! It's genuine and licensed."

Gu Jun couldn't help but smile, "Xian Yu." He took a long breath, "Many people have died. It's great to see you still alive."

"Well..." Wu Shiyu's eyes twitched and he nodded heavily, "I want to live for a long, long time, and so do you."
