Extraordinary Puppet Master

In less than half an hour, everything about albinism was disclosed by Milton. Everyone learned the bad news, including most of Carlin's secondary partners.

For a moment, panic swept through the entire new home, and everyone's heart was cast into a shadow.

Fortunately, Milton and Winnie took all the survivors and built a new home together, accumulating a high prestige.

After receiving the bad news about vitiligo, everyone still maintained their sanity for the time being. They believed that the leader would lead everyone through the difficulties again.

The situation was urgent, and everyone was extremely cooperative. It was about their own lives. Everyone consciously stayed away from everyone, and tried to keep a safe distance of more than three meters between people.

Industrial areas far away from energy towers that cannot guarantee heating are completely shut down.

The five mentor-level assistants of Anderson, Thorne, Treeman, Giant, and Swordsman were directly sent to other coal mines in the industrial area to fill the vacancies.

There is also a four-legged robot that has joined their mining efforts, constantly digging coal mines and inkstone to supply energy towers and steam hubs.

Five assistants and four-legged robots can barely maintain the 40% output efficiency of the coal mine and inkstone mining before the shutdown.

Winnie and the other nine extraordinary beings who had fallen from the mentor level did not care about wasting resources, and directly began to arrange the promotion ceremony, hoping to return to the mentor level as quickly as possible and join the ranks of mining.

In any case, the higher the level, the stronger the resistance to pollution. So far, no case of Kalin's mentor-level deputy has been found to be infected with vitiligo.

Just when everyone was nervously moving, Amiya also teleported back to her new home with the five Sekes.

After returning, she wasted no time and raced against the clock to lead the five people to a remote material warehouse prepared for her by Milton.

Milton was very efficient and took action after discussing with Carlin.

A group of extraordinary people wearing isolation suits spent a lot of resources to renovate a material warehouse in less than twenty minutes to keep the internal temperature warm. It can be said that every second counts.

To this end, they did not hesitate to disassemble one of the only two four-legged robots in the settlement, and the disassembled steam core was installed directly in the warehouse for heating.

This behavior is very wasteful. Not only does it reduce the number of valuable robots in the new home, but the conditions are tight and there is no excessive layout. The energy utilization rate of using steam core heating is less than 10%.

The inkstones burned in vain, just to arrange a warm experimental environment for Amiya as soon as possible.

The five of them could only close their eyes, lie down and let the twin-tailed girl in front of them do what they wanted.

They and Carlin's remaining ten uninfected spouses began to conduct comparative experiments under different conditions.

-

Wear or not wear a heating lamp in five different temperature environments: 10, -15, -20, -25, and -30, and let the non-sick partner have close contact with the patient.

Three hours passed quickly. Carlin had a group of experimental subjects deliberately infected with the disease and then treated, and constantly observed and compared the results under different situations.

He obtained detailed data and further deepened his understanding of vitiligo.

Extraordinary people with average resistance are likely to suffer from vitiligo if they stay in an environment with a temperature below minus 18 degrees for more than one minute without any protection.

If you wear a heating lamp, you can lower the infection temperature by another ten degrees.

Depending on the extraordinary person's resistance to pollution, the infection temperature will fluctuate up and down, reaching as low as minus 22 degrees Celsius.

If other healthy people have close contact with patients within three meters, the temperature must be above zero to ensure that they are not infected.

The temperature for Amiya, a mentor, to get sick is below minus 30 degrees Celsius. Anyway, she tried even if she took off her clothes and stood in the snow at minus 30 degrees Celsius for more than half an hour, she didn't necessarily get sick.

In all these experiments, Kalin consumed more than 2 units of diluted divine power.

On the other side, Milton and the others also made some discoveries after investigation, and he immediately told Carlin about his findings.

"According to the descriptions of those five people, the survivors have been exposed to temperatures of minus 30 degrees Celsius in the wild after falling ill, and will die within two days at most."

"Patients in their new home are located in a warm environment above freezing. Through observation, it is found that the activity of white tumors has been reduced. If sufficient food supply is maintained, these patients can persist for at least five days."

Carlin perked up after hearing this result. This is an important discovery. Albinism, a disease caused by pollution, is closely related to temperature.

Then Milton said: "We also found the first batch of patients, who were sawmill workers!"

In an instant, Carlin suddenly realized that he had been very puzzled before about how the residents of his new home contracted albinism.

Whether it is an industrial area far away from the energy tower or a heating area around the energy tower, the temperature in everyone's workplace never drops below minus five degrees.

But there is one exception, and that is the sawmill.

The small basin where the new settlement is located has a frozen grove on the outside, and a dense virgin forest is also frozen inside the wall made of solid ice.

The new family has no idea about the virgin forest for the time being. Due to the limited conditions, it is not cost-effective to force the ice to cut trees, but the trees that are exposed and frozen can still be easily harvested.

After the wood is thawed, it can be sent to a charcoal kiln to be burned into coal.

But a significant portion of the sawmill workers must perform strip mining for a period of time to return the trees to the sawmill.

If there is anywhere in the new home where there are conditions for getting sick, it is only here.

This is completely consistent with Milton's statistics. The patients are almost in all positions in the new home, but only in the sawmill, everyone is infected, and no one is infected.

Carlin sighed helplessly after learning the whole story. Now that the matter has come to this, he can only hope that they can develop a cure as soon as possible.

After it was discovered that work at the sawmill caused the illness, work resumed in other areas of the industrial area except the sawmill and coal kiln.

Residents who are still healthy are temporarily allowed to take over, and some positions such as kitchens, greenhouses, and workstations in the heating area can only be left vacant for now.

After the residents got new work arrangements, they also immediately.

But there is one last hidden danger, which is that it takes about two to three minutes to walk from the heating area to the industrial area. During this period, everyone will be exposed to an environment of minus 30 degrees Celsius.

Even if there is a heat lamp for heating, it can only increase the temperature by one level.

At a temperature of minus 20 degrees Celsius, some extraordinary beings with poor immunity are still at great risk of contracting the disease.

However, this issue was directly solved by Carlin as soon as it was raised.

Dong dong dong——

I saw a metal giant walking on the stone road. The lines on the giant's body shone with light, setting up a thermal field within a radius of twenty meters around the body.

One after another, the workers who went to work in the industrial area followed the giant step by step, fearing that they would lose the protection of the thermal field if they slowed down.

This is Morpheus's alchemical colossus. When Morpheus died, the colossus naturally became the property of Karin.

The strength of this finely polished and carved colossus of Morpheus is even comparable to that of himself, and it can also hold up a barrier to protect the workers who go to work like it does now.

The only drawback is that it consumes a lot of gold coins, but the new home's own reserves plus the more than 20,000 coins contributed by Carlin can last for a long time.

In this way, the Colossus became a mobile shelter for its new home, and workers commuting to and from the industrial area followed this big guy closely.

After temporarily solving the problem of work stoppage in the industrial zone, Milton and Carlin both breathed a sigh of relief, but their moods were still solemn. The current situation was very unoptimistic.

Forty-five percent of the residents are infected, which is equivalent to suddenly removing less than half of the new home's labor force.

Not only have many jobs been suspended, but the resource consumption of these patients who are not working has also skyrocketed.

The new home's resource output is reduced, but its consumption is doubled.

The threat of albinism still loomed over their heads, but Milton and Winnie were also feeling the strain on resources.

They can only hope that the banyan tree will return home from the Ark settlement soon and alleviate the deterioration of the new home.
