"So that's what it is..."

After a long time, Guo Yi and the others finally came to their senses after eavesdropping on those people's meeting.

Putting aside invalid content such as how those people dealt with Guo Yi and how they distributed benefits, based on those people's scattered words and the background that Guo Yi knew, Guo Yi and the others finally understood why the Resident Evil world became like this.

During the Age of Discovery in the 18th century, countless people from bandit countries formed countless caravans to plunder resources in the Black Continent.

Among them, the wealthy businessman Thomas Travis also took advantage of the situation and founded a maritime trading group (Travis Trading Company) to travel to and from the Black Continent.

Thomas's youngest son, Henry Travis, loved exploring. He followed the former fleet on many adventures to the Black Sea, and compiled his many years of exploration records into a collection of seventy-two volumes: "Natural History Expeditions."

The book not only contains natural history-related content about Heizhou's animals, plants, insects, minerals, geology, etc., but also mentions folklore-related elements such as the life, culture, habits, history, etc. of Heizhou residents.

It can be said to be the Encyclopedia of Black Continent back then.

However, the content of this "Natural History Survey" was too detailed, and the public thought it was Henry's own fiction. Only a small number of publications have reached the hands of a small number of readers who like this adventure book.

Henry saw that his hard work had been "exploded", and he collapsed, and soon died of depression.

Verbal violence is a knife that kills people without blood!

However, in fact, the book "Natural History Survey" is too excellent!

The head of the Travis Trading Company, Henry's eldest brother, wanted to monopolize the interests of Black Continent, so he deliberately controlled public opinion to discredit Henry's "Natural History Survey" in order to prevent others from obtaining the information in the book.

In 1960, the young patriarch of the Spencer family, Oswell E. Spencer, discovered the "Natural History Survey" that had been passed down in the family.

Later, Spencer became keenly interested in the "Stairway to the Sun" described in the folklore chapter, which can extend human life and enhance strength.

So he invited his friend Edward Ashford, the fifth generation heir to the Ashford family, and his friend Edward's classmate Dr. James Marcus, a virology expert, to conduct joint research.

In 1966, they inferred the existence of sunflowers from the records of Ndibaya rituals, so Spencer, his friends Edward, Dr. Marcus and his student Brandon decided to go to Africa to look for "

Sun Staircase Flowers".

After going through many difficulties and evading the search by the Nidipaya tribe, the four finally brought back the sunflower and began to study it.

After further research, Dr. Marcus discovered the RNA virus hidden in flowers and named it "Progenitor Virus".

This was the origin of Triplex and the Umbrella Corporation, and the origin of the world of Resident Evil.

It is precisely because so many people have been to the Black Continent in the Age of Discovery, and also because of the existence of that book, that many people actually know the existence of the "Stairway to the Sun" and have also looked for the "Stairway to the Sun".

Among them, some, like Spencer, successfully found the "Stairway to the Sun" and obtained the virus.

Some of the people who went to look for them were darker and met people who were strengthened by the "Stairway of the Sun", who were the hosts of the "Ancestor Virus", and were killed because of this.

There are also many people who are relatively lucky, who wasted money and took an adventure in Heizhou, and either returned home with their ashes or returned home safely.

At the same time, there are also hosts of some "ancestral viruses" that did not die unexpectedly, but lived for a long time.

Live a long time, and be from Heizhou...

With the development of the times, some hosts of the "ancestral virus" that lived too long naturally attracted official attention.

What happens after that is very simple.

The "Stairway to the Sun" has thus become an open secret among many high-ranking people in many places.

Long lifespan, strong physical fitness...

The higher the status, the less able to resist these two temptations!

Therefore, everyone is pursuing genetic technology and pursuing longevity and physical fitness.

Precisely because they are pursuing evolution, many people naturally invest everything they can into related industries.

If one person devotes all his efforts to support research, others will have no choice but to keep up if they don't want to fall behind.

If we keep up, it will become a military race of biological weapons, commonly known as involution!

However, when it comes to genetic technology...

Since the "Ancestor Virus" will eventually be used on humans, in order to save time and cost, many people naturally use "humans" as experimental materials.

As for the leak of the virus...

Due to the constraints of the times, those doing research do not know what the greatest possibility is if the virus is leaked.

In other words, they have blind self-confidence, confident that nothing will happen, and confident that they can control it.

It's a pity that they don't know that there are two words that are the luckiest and most terrifying in scientific research: accident.

Another issue is knowledge...

Modern people are very taboo about viruses. This is because there are too many negative teaching materials, and there are also countless people with great imaginations who have produced countless works, so they have learned a lot of experience.

But here, everyone is studying viruses, and some big problems have naturally been taken into consideration, so there will be no big problems.

If there is no big problem, then naturally there will be no negative teaching materials.

At the same time, due to cultural development and time issues, there are also fewer imaginative works.

Therefore, those scientific researchers have fewer taboos and have more courage.

Then, some small problems that are ignored or unexpected things can lead to catastrophe...

In a super-secret biological research institute, there are actually rats appearing, which is simply outrageous!

The last one is because the world’s technology is crooked...

What everyone was guarding against were opponents and experimental subjects, and they never considered environmental factors or other transmission routes.

Naturally, when they first built the research institute, they paid more attention to transportation, concealment, etc.

As for security…

With a little bit of regular safety measures, that's fine.

All in all, due to various reasons combined, it is simply unbearable that there will be no zombie apocalypse in the Resident Evil world!

"...This incident tells us that not only do researchers need to pay attention when studying genes, but at the same time, systems and rules also need to pay attention."

After an analysis, Kruse concluded: “In genetic research, we cannot let go of some seemingly dispensable restrictions in pursuit of quick results.

At the same time, we cannot give up the research and development of other technologies because of genetic research.

The pros and cons of genetic research are too obvious.”

"..."

After Kruse finished speaking, Guo Yi fell silent.

If "Academy Apocalypse" reminded Orochimaru that they need to pay attention when doing research, then "Resident Evil" not only reminded Orochimaru, but also reminded Guo Yi and Lao Wei...

Don't think about taking shortcuts in genetic technology, genetic technology is different from other technologies!

If other technologies take shortcuts, at most they will fall into a technological trap, but there are ways to save them.

If genetic technology takes shortcuts, it will probably cost the whole world, and we won’t even be able to save it!

"Hoo~"

After a moment of silence, Guo Yi asked Lacus, "Lacus, how are you doing over there?"

"The right collaborator has been found."

Lux nodded and smiled: "There are a group of insiders who are opposing virus research, not for profit, but because they are worried that the virus will trigger a doomsday crisis.

They saw that many people were obsessed with the possibility of "evolution" and gradually became unscrupulous.

Therefore, they worry that if they are too radical, it will cause big problems.

in particular……"

Speaking of this, Lux couldn't help but smile and said quietly: "The tyrant of the Umbrella Company makes some radical people think that they are only one step away from "evolution".

And what you have done during this period has made them believe that you are the only one behind them from "evolving".

Now, they are almost crazy and irrational!"

"There is a group of people!?"

Guo Yi blinked and asked curiously: "Besides my own family, are there anyone else?"

"Um."

Lux nodded and smiled lightly: "The bass organization has actually taken shape now!

Those people should be the behind-the-scenes supporters of the bass organization."

"..."

Guo Yi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "That's right.

If there is no prototype now, it is impossible to become a global organization all over the world in just five years.

There won’t be a complete system and logistics, etc.”

After sighing, Guo Yi said seriously to everyone: "It seems that the situation here is very clear now...

Because of institutional issues, Resident Evil is divided into the biochemical world and the ordinary world.

Because of different attitudes towards virus research, the world is divided into two camps: radical and unscrupulous radicals.
To be continued...
