Chapter 170 The Virus' Effect

170 The Virus' Effect

Alex opened his eyes and saw the notification.

It was actually a message from a friend.

And beside Kris, Alex has no other friends in the World System.

"Hmm, I just left her condo, huh. Why is she suddenly messaging me here now?"

Lazily, Alex opened the message from Kris.

[Kris: Alex, Uncle Glen said he was calling you but you weren't answering.]

After reading Kris' message, Alex sat up straight and frowned,

"Huh? Mister Glen was calling me?"

Alex took out his phone from his pocket and tried to open it.

But after a while, Alex realized that his phone's battery had drained.

Scratching his head, Alex sighed and charged his phone first.

After doing that, Alex put his eyes back onto the messaging interface and replied to Kris.

[Zero: Tell Mr. Glen that I didn't notice. My phone died when I was on my way home.]

Just a few seconds later, Kris sent another message.

[Kris: Alright, I already told him.]

[Kris: Anyway, Uncle wants to meet you right now. He said something happened with the corpse yesterday.]

Seeing the following message, Alex suddenly frowned.

"Something happened to the corpse?"

With confusion, Alex asked,

[Zero: Huh? Did he tell you what it was all about?]

[Kris: No. You should just ask him yourself.]

Still puzzled, Alex said,

[Zero: Okay. I'll send him a message after I charge my phone a little.]

[Kris: Good.]

Dismissing the messaging box, Alex looked at his phone and saw that it finally turned on.

"Let's see..."

Alex took his phone and saw that there were indeed messages and missed calls from Glen.

So, after thinking about it, Alex sent a reply, asking what Glen needs.

Just as the message got sent, his phone started ringing.

Ring~ Ring~

Looking at the caller's name, it was Glen who he just messaged.

Alex answered the call, "Hello, Mr. Glen!"

On the other end of the call, Glen spoke with a serious tone.

"Alex, something happened. I need you to come here urgently!"

"Can you tell me a bit about it?" Alex said with uncertainty.

For a moment, Glen remained silent before letting out a sigh, saying,

"The corpse of the Corruptor that we took back yesterday, after our scientists studied it for a while, they discovered that it actually has some deadly virus in it!"

Alex's eyes suddenly changed when he heard Glen's words.

"Is that true?!"

Alex can't help but think of a time a few years ago.

The girl knocked on the door.

Tok! Tok! Tok!

Then, Alex heard Glen's voice from inside the room.

"Come in."

With his permission, the girl opened the door and entered the office.

Following behind her, Alex saw that Glen was sitting in a chair behind the table with a deep frown on his face.

Beside him, there are also a few other people inside the office.

All of them are unknown to Alex.

When Alex and the twintails girls entered the office, Glen looked at them.

Next, a man wearing a lab coat as well as some prospective gear came to the white mouse.

12:05

The moment he saw Alex, a relieved look seemed to suddenly appear on Glen's face.

Beckoning at him, Glen said, "Alex, come here."

Alex heard Glen and moved closer to him with a curious face.

Alex was about to some questions but before he even open his mouth, Glen pushed a tablet over to him and said,

"Look at this video."

Glen played the video and even though he was confused, Alex turned his eyes on the screen.

In the video, a white experimental mouse is placed inside a glass container.

It was moving around normally, but also seemed to be feeling nervous.

Next, a man wearing a lab coat as well as some prospective gear came to the white mouse.

In his hand, he is holding a syringe with unknown green liquid inside.

Picking up the nervous white mouse, the man suddenly inserted the syringe into the mouse and poured all the unknown liquid.

After doing that, the man placed the white mouse back into the container, moved away from it and started observing.

At first, nothing seems wrong with the white mouse.

It continued moving around like before, just showing behavior that is already expected of it.

For a while, it remained like that and it made Alex almost start questioning Glen about what he wants to show.

But just right at that moment, changes started happening to the white mouse.

It's eyes that seem docile from before suddenly became fiercer.

Even its whole eyes have turned pure black!

Beside that, it also started showing some erratic behavior.

The white mouse began growling which is unusual behavior that you won't usually see from a mouse.

Some patches in its body have also suddenly become rotten.

It was as if the mouse had been dead for a couple of days already.

This just shows the weirdness of the white mouse.

Then at this time, the man in the video approached the glass container where the white mouse is in and put another normal white mouse inside it.

When the first white mouse saw that, its eyes suddenly glowed with a fierce light and opened its mouth, letting out a weird sound.

Shrieeek!

The next moment, the first white mouse pounced on the new white mouse and started biting it!

Alex frowned when he saw this.

But he didn't say anything and continued watching.
