Chapter 911: Contamination… (2/2)
After Lu Qi's examination, he confirmed Mubai had also fallen victim to the virus. When he told her the news, her face blanched.
”How serious is he?” She asked, and the shaking of her voice was barely suppressed by the mask she was wearing.
Lu Qi was also in a mask, in fact, his whole body was covered. ”Thankfully, he discovered it very early, so I can still use some drugs to slow its progress. However, if the cure cannot be found, I am afraid we will have nation-wide deaths on our hands.”
”Is the cure so hard to produce?” Xinghe was confused. Lu Qi was already the best of the best. If he could not cultivate the vaccine or cure, no one could.
Lu Qi nodded solemnly. ”This is perhaps the scariest virus I have ever encountered in my practicing life.”
”You have to complete the research.” Xinghe looked at him imploringly; he was their only hope.
”I understand.” Lu Qi nodded. ”You all have to be careful as well. Prevention is better than cure.”
”I'll be fine.” Ali and the rest were fine as well. People who were physically trained were safer from the virus. Mubai had been through heart surgery, so the fact that he had held on until then was already a miracle in itself. However, in the end, he remained the virus' victim…
Xinghe, thinking about his situation, radiated an icy aura, deterring others from getting close to her. However, she kept her cool; she did not lose her head due to anxiety and nerves.
That was how she was, the bigger the crisis, the calmer she would become. Ali and the rest were impressed by her strength.
Xinghe planted herself outside of Mubai's quarantine room and did not leave.
