"Don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you."

Seeing the girl's panicked behavior, Brian tried to be as gentle as possible, raised his hand to signal the girl to calm down, and said, "I just want to confirm the authenticity of the news."

“….”

The scene fell silent immediately. Tess stared at Brian closely. She was also startled by what he said just now.

If it weren't for the fact that this man seemed to know Joel, she would have suspected that he knew about the existence of immune bodies and came specifically for Ellie.

After thinking for a long time, Tess turned her head and said to the girl: "Ellie, just roll up your sleeves and let him take a look."

"…All right."

Although she was a little reluctant, Ellie came a little closer, lifted her injured arm away, and pulled up her sleeve to reveal the wound hidden underneath.

"As expected, it was bitten by an infected person."

Looking at the scabbed wound, Brian narrowed his eyes slightly. These people had seen many people bitten by infected people. From the red spots spreading around the wound, he recognized at a glance that it was indeed someone who had been bitten by an infected person.

Bite from an infected person.

It's just that unlike ordinary people who are bitten by an infected person, and the spots on the wound will spread quickly and fester, the wound around the woman's wound not only did not spread, but showed signs of recession.

"I didn't expect...this is actually true..."

Although he learned the truth about the world from Chen Shi, Brian had never heard about the so-called immune body in all these years, so although he knew whether it was true or not, he still had some doubts. After all,

This is a real world for him, not a game.

Now that immune bodies really existed, he immediately thought that this would be an important breakthrough in developing a vaccine for Cordyceps fungus.

"It seems that Ma Lin did not hide your news."

Secretly suppressing his inner thoughts, Brian slowly said: "All the Huoying members here died because of this."

"....You mean...someone no longer wants Ma Lin to continue to control Firefly?"

Things have already come to this point, and even Tess, who is so slow, has reacted and can't believe it.

"This is not a strange thing. Huoying's actions in recent years have become more and more off track. Although Ma Lin is the nominal leader, I have seen some of the places she has come into contact with, and they are all important quarantine areas.

, the previous regional leap was too large, and it can be seen that all her thoughts are focused on the development of vaccines."

Looking at Tess's disbelieving look, Brian shrugged, casually found a place to sit down, and said: "A commander who has been away from the base camp for a long time, all his thoughts are focused on the vaccine, and Huo Ying is short.

With the rapid expansion of time, the pure rebel army has become a mixed bag, and it is almost inevitable that some people will have evil intentions... What a pity..."

"If things are really as you say..."

Tess frowned slightly and asked, "Then Ma Lin should have been dismissed a long time ago. How could she still be active in Boston now?"

"As the apparent leader of Huoying, Ma Lin's appeal is undoubted, and naturally countless people will follow her footsteps. This influence cannot be underestimated, and..."

Brian looked at Ellie, who was standing beside him, and said, "It looks like she didn't gain anything."

"So, some people within Huoying don't want Ma Lin to get immunity..."

But just as the three of them were talking in a circle, a deep voice suddenly sounded. Everyone looked around and saw Joel and Sarah walking over side by side.

Joel took over the conversation and looked at Brian, saying, "If you say so, why wouldn't it be better for them to just kill Marlene?"

"Ahem... They did it, but they just didn't succeed."

Looking at Joel's strange look at him, Brian coughed twice and said: "Ma Lin's reputation is not low within Huoying. Even if she dies, they cannot do it themselves, so the top leader

Death in the hands of the military is the most appropriate, as it can not only eliminate the person, but also make the people in Huoying even more hostile to the military, thereby improving cohesion."

"But that plan obviously failed, so after learning that Ma Lin entrusted her people to two smugglers, they simply killed all the people who were left in the parliament building. The smugglers did not get the rewards they deserved.

It's definitely not possible to let go of the 'goods' in your hands easily."

After hearing this, Joel thought for a while, looked at the girl next to him, Ellie, and asked, "So, they contacted people from the army."

"That's right."

Brian sighed and said: "The army is here to clean up Huo Ying's body, and you are naturally included in it. If you are lucky, you may be able to catch the girl alive. Then we will try to find a way to fish her out, that is,

After getting rid of Ma Lin, I got the immunity again."

"They have a pretty good idea." Joel sneered and said, "Aren't you afraid that the immune system will be killed as well?"

"I don't know, but they don't seem to care."

Brian shook his head and sighed: "Compared with the real rights in their hands, the out-of-reach vaccine does not seem to be very attractive to them. It is naturally good to get it, and there is no loss if they don't get it."

As he spoke, he saw several people around him and continued: "Immune bodies play a vital role in vaccine research. Not only can a vaccine be developed, but it can also greatly shorten the time. If Ma Lin can obtain the vaccine

, on the one hand, her influence will rise to an unprecedented height where no one can compete with her, on the other hand, her energy will also be able to return to managing Huoying. At that time, it will be time to truly start the reckoning.

.”

The brief words that came out of Brian's mouth made the people around him feel a little uncomfortable. For those who were used to going straight in the wilderness, these conspiracies and machinations were really beyond their imagination.

"So what if... they succeed?"

At this moment, Ellie, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke and asked Brian softly.

"...."

After hearing this, Brian couldn't help but be stunned. After a moment of silence, he said: "Judging from Huoying's current radical attitude, if Ma Lin is really dead, then Huoying's future will most likely become a huge one."

Resistance Army, but the so-called saving the world is just a slogan."

Tess next to her quickly woke up. Thinking about the tone of the other person's description of Ma Lin just now, she asked tentatively: "You...seem to know Ma Lin very well..."

"It's not that we're familiar, we've been together for a while."

Brian stood up and stretched a little tiredly. Answering questions one after another made him feel a little dry. He took a drink from the water bottle next to his backpack and then said:

"She was not a firefly queen at that time, she was just a hardworking person who was running for a living, but I have to say that she was indeed very courageous."

Hearing this, Ellie, who had been silent all this time, suddenly had a flash of inspiration. She unconsciously reached into her backpack and took out a photo. She looked at the figures on it and then looked at Brian and Brian.

Sarah seemed to have a flash of inspiration in her mind, and suddenly said: "You! You are the people in the photo!"

"Um?"

The girl's voice was a little excited, and Brian couldn't help but look over, and soon saw the photo in the other person's hand, and said with a smile: "Yes, there is indeed me on it. I didn't expect Ma Lin to actually give it to you.

.”

"Then do you know my mother?"

"your mom?"

"right!"
