Be the savior from Frostpunk

Chapter 148 Panacea and the First Card Draw

Li Jianghao is very interested in the existence of panacea among all the medicines here.

Although it cannot be used to relieve or immunize the infection of prion particles, it can be cured for most of the diseases known to humans.

In the 21st century when Li Jianghao lived, scientists at MIT had already completed the synthesis of panaceas in the laboratory, but limited by technical conditions and capital, they could not be widely used.

As for why the panacea cannot resist prions, it is because prions are not really virus structures, but just another protein structure, and under normal circumstances, they would not be regarded as pathogens.

This can be regarded as a protection mechanism planted by nature in order to avoid cannibalism in organisms, which exceeds the scope of viruses.It's just that people call it prions for convenience, just to reflect the various abnormalities in the body of patients after the disease, which is similar to rabies and mad cow disease.

In the heyday of civilization in the world of billions of zombies, advances in panacea and various biotechnologies have led to the extension of the life span of ordinary people for a long time. Human beings will hardly suffer from any illness from birth to death, and even guarantee that the body will last until the age of 70. Time can still have enough physical fitness to thrive.

All this has also led to a large-scale increase in population, and a complete social mechanism can ensure that ordinary people can be properly arranged no matter how many people they have before the collapse of resources.

Under such circumstances, the population has experienced a huge increase, and finally reached the terrible number of 800 billion.

Even so, with a population of 800 billion, the world of hundreds of millions of zombies has remained stable for a while, and they even have time to come up with protein conversion devices before society collapses.

Before the infection broke out, the entire civilization level was even on the rise.

It seems that the pressure and losses caused by the huge population will not affect the foundation of this civilization at all. From the perspective of sociologists in the 21st century, it is simply impossible to achieve.

The undead team began to search for explanatory drawings and some professional chemical instruments according to the names and labels of the medicines, and sealed them up for preservation.In order to do this, they even brought the small boxes found on the ice field that originally stored the various lost science and technology books.

According to the timeline of New London, what Arnold and the others have seen is the English text 300 years later. Fortunately, all these have not changed much, or whether it is the Frost Age or the billions of zombies, in a higher dimension , are all established based on the progress of civilization in the 21st century, so there will be no major changes in the written language in essence.

The most basic medicines needed for diseases caused by climate change are the last things they need. They need more medicines that can solve the wound infection and blood loss caused by external physical injuries, as well as living in a single environment for a long time A disease caused by the lack of certain essential substances in the body.

After that, there are insulin, blood pressure drugs and other purified drugs needed by personal physique or other heart diseases.There are very few elderly people in New London, but there is no guarantee that after more than ten years, with the increase of age, there will be no outbreaks of various middle-aged and elderly diseases.

When I found the panacea, it happened to be placed on a closed booth. The special glass container looked like a transparent crystal, rather than a simple and cheap glass texture. The material of this glass alone looks like It’s already priceless.

Special magnetic storage technology With the disconnection of power resources, Li Jianghao only needs to kick open the torque valve below which there is not much magnetic force available to open the glass container.

As Li Jianghao held the bottle of panacea in his hand, the system lazily broadcast prompts. This guy was increasingly failing to fulfill his duties, and even speaking seemed to be weak:
"E-level items can be submitted to the warehouse in exchange for points. Please note that all items can only be exchanged for points for the first time, and only barter services will be provided in the future."

Having said that, Li Jianghao said that when he got the ice scales and the ashes of the king of salary, the system also said that he would be provided with the warehouse and the function of handing in items after the initial task was completed.

At that time, he thought that this warehouse was something like a space ring, thinking that he was finally going to get the standard portable space for the hero of the novel.No matter how bad it is, it is very convenient to have a small portable warehouse to store things.

Later, he learned that only items rated by the system or items previously rewarded could be handed over to this warehouse.

Right now, in that warehouse, there is the key of the Shining Locust that cannot be used in this world, and there is nothing else.

However, Li Jianghao noticed the points, so he asked with a little expectation:
"What are those points for? Can I exchange them for anything?"

Anyway, he can only get points when he submits the first panacea. If he gets other panaceas later, he won't be able to put them into the warehouse. He can just use them according to the original plan.

There was even a hint of laziness in the system's voice, which made Li Jianghao wonder if a real person from a certain world was working part-time to pretend to be the intelligence of the system, without any professionalism.

The system said unsteadily: "It's nothing, E-level item points can also be exchanged for three item cards and choose one of them to manifest. Among the three cards, there must be an E-level item and an E-level item fragment (2/ 3) and a fragment (1/3) of an E-grade item. Three fragments can be synthesized into a complete prop.”

Li Jianghao couldn't help complaining: "You weren't like this before. I thought you never did any data flow. You either gave me things directly or couldn't even find anyone. How do you extract fragments to synthesize this kind of thing now? Everything has been done, where did you learn these dregs? You can't just learn from those invincible system colleagues and get it right for me in one go."

The system said perfunctorily: "Your system intelligence has been sent for repairs. I came from the next door to replace it. My style is like this. If you don't draw cards, I will leave."

Good guy, Li Jianghao doesn't even know if this is the real situation or if the system deliberately said this to deal with him.

After finding the new panacea, Li Jianghao felt that it would be best to take a gamble, anyway, to get new usable props.If you can't get it, the points are in your hands and you can't spend them, which is also a waste.

"Drawing, isn't it just drawing cards, God bless."

Li Jianghao uploaded the panacea, and the fuzzy interface in his mind is different from the previous system style. It seems that someone else is really taking over.

Three black iron-colored cards, or in other words, three huge black iron monuments in the distance stood at the fork of the three roads ahead.

Li Jianghao randomly found a direction, and with a wave of his hand, an iron monument shattered, and a tall figure walked towards him. He also looked like a macho man, no less tall than Thunder Warrior Thorne.

"Good luck, a complete E-grade item. I withdrew it, the system circuit can't support multiverse-level loading, your system intelligence will come back after three stars, take it easy."

The system's voice became smaller and smaller, but Li Jianghao didn't feel excited just because he had done it, but he was thinking about why there are more and more muscular men around him.Could this be a hint?
