The world of "Wasteland OL" is not isolated islands but a seamless, continuous whole.
A typhoon in the Poluo Sea might trigger torrential rains in Baiyue Province.
After such a long closed beta, players have become accustomed to the intertwined events happening on the wasteland. So when Wild Wind saw the army throwing corpses into the river, he immediately connected it to the potential impact of viruses carried by the corpses on the downstream settlements.
After consulting with the academy researchers, Fang Chang immediately relayed the message to Absek, hoping that the Poluo authorities could prepare for epidemic measures.
However, regrettably, faced with overwhelming tasks and incessant factional conflicts, Absek evidently did not take it seriously enough.
He verbally agreed and indeed instructed the health committee member, but neither did the former nor the latter take this "small matter" to heart.
Actually, it's no wonder he wasn't concerned.
