"It smells so strong..." Before Mo walked out of the tunnel, he frowned and muttered.

Qin Luo was a little suspicious, because Dao Scarbei killed one of his subordinates and saw a puddle of blood, so Qin Luo didn't deliberately control the amount of bleeding. The 'so thick' in the ink mouth, he doesn't know what the specific concept is. Just carefully told "Be careful, if something happens, don't fight hard."

The two carefully exited the tunnel one after the other, Qin Luo also wrinkled his nose, he could feel the strong smell of blood here. With the way they killed people just now, it is impossible to have such a strong smell of blood. Carefully entered the operating room, the three corpses inside remained unchanged. But when they entered the disposal room, Qin Luo's brows immediately frowned.

The two corpses near the door and the wall of the disposal room remained unchanged. They were the two guys who had just died in the hands of Qin Luo and Mo. Another corpse with a different head looked weird. The bare hands of the corpse had become like lizard claws. The head rolled to the wall, the staring eyeballs protruded slightly, although some scales appeared on the face, but Qin Luo could still vaguely distinguish that this guy was the team leader named Dao Scarbei.

Except for these three corpses, there were only some fragmented pieces of meat on the ground, and it was impossible to tell what the dead looked like before they were alive. However, according to Qin Luo's size, it should be the size of a person's corpse. There is a flat incision at the position of the meat bone, and it looks like it was cut off by a very sharp thing.

Originally, there should have been five corpses in the room, except for the three lying on the ground, there should also be the horse face and the one who spat at him. So these chopped pieces of meat must be one of them. Recalling the scene at that time, Qin Luo felt that the deceased was more likely to be the one who spat in Tsushima's face.

The military vehicle outside the clinic was gone, and a blood-drained corpse was randomly discarded on the ground. Qin Luo sighed deeply. All this has shown that the last ones to survive are blood races pretending to be humans. Although he didn't know why the vampires would sneak into the research team and what purpose they had, it was a good thing for them that the reformers in the research institute were killed. At least he won't report the situation here to the higher ups, but the vampires must have seen Mo, and it's hard to say whether it will cause any trouble.

Mo also frowned. Judging from the way the deceased died, the other party's method was very similar to his. It should be the blood clan that Qin Luo talked about, but he didn't notice the difference at all.

The two carefully got into Qin Luo's car, met up with a few people in the back alley, and finally arrived at the Qin family's villa after walking all the way.

Aunt Liu anxiously looked around on the terrace on the third floor, watching Qin Luo's car from a distance and immediately went downstairs. Several people carried Gu Qingyang and Dai Tianqing out of the car, Aunt Liu didn't ask any further questions, and let them go to the living room on the first floor to prepare tea.

After Qin Luo briefly introduced them, Aunt Liu sighed and was busy cleaning the room and preparing a place for them to live.

Fang Xiaoyu and Ye Chen were in a very depressed mood, and Dai Tianqing's infection was obviously intensified. The two wounds he was caught were too close to the head and internal organs. One shallow on the chest and one deep on the left forearm. According to the progress of Dai Tianqing's infection, Qin Luo felt that he would not survive for five hours at most, and the cells in his body would be completely transformed, turning him into a zombie.

Dai Tianqing forced a smile, "Should I prepare something for me? If a gun is inconvenient, a sharper knife will do."

Ye Chen's tears were already rolling in the circles of his eyes. Hearing what he said, he turned his back and cried while shaking his shoulders. Fang Xiaoyu's eyes were also red, and she held back her tears and scratched her hair several times.

Qin Luo sighed, "You are a doctor, I believe you are very aware of the changes in your body."

Dai Tianqing nodded, "I don't think it will last for four hours, so you have to hurry up. My body is a bit out of control now. If I can't kill myself at once, I hope you don't hesitate. … was a relief.”

Qin Luo didn't answer him, and continued to say, "I know what I said next, you may find it strange or have doubts about it, but I assure you that everything I said is true. Zombie virus It’s not so much a virus as it is a forced evolutionary agent.”

Ye Chen turned around, "Forced evolution?"

Qin Luo took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled, "This is not a simple virus that not only infects humans, it also infects other species, but all infected species are lower than this kind of virus in a sense. Viruses. Species higher than this virus level will not have the so-called infection. So this is actually a forced evolution for low-level species.”

Except for Mo, the four of them looked at Qin Luo in surprise. They didn't ask about the origin of Qin Luo's news, but it was said to be a low-level species, which made people feel a little uncomfortable. For thousands of years, human beings have always regarded themselves as high-level intelligent creatures, and have always stood at the pinnacle of domination.

Dai Tianqing smiled wryly, "If I really told you that this is a kind of evolution, then why do infected people still go crazy, kill people, and eat the flesh and blood of their own kind?"

Qin Luo's voice was a little helpless, "This is the hidden danger brought about by forced evolution. These life forms that are forced to evolve are for survival, not for civilization. From the evolved state, cells, body functions, In terms of habits and so on, they are no longer fit to be called human beings."

Fang Xiaoyu sat up nervously, "What? What do you mean by not being human?"

Ye Chen gritted his teeth, "As long as he is alive, it doesn't matter what he is..."

Dai Tianqing shook her head resolutely, "No, if I live like a walking dead, I'd rather die."

Gu Shunyang suddenly said, "Then, what about me, when will I become a zombie?"

Qin Luo shook his head. Infected people are divided into two types: "One kind of infected people will be completely shuffled by virus cells because of weak antibodies in their bodies. When the virus infects the brain, it will completely change the brain cell structure, making them human The memory of the infected person is permanently erased, and finally completely transformed into a new humanoid species—the zombie race. Because of the tenacious resistance of the antibodies in the body, the virus cells invade very slowly, and their brains are difficult to destroy, so even if they They are also no longer human, but because they retain the memory of human beings, they finally restrained the desire to devour flesh and blood. They can still live a life similar to that of human beings, and are called half-corpse people. However, compared with the huge number of zombies, it is transformed into Half-corpse, very, very rare."

Gu Shunyang was tongue-tied, and pointed to himself, "You mean I will become a half-corpse?"

Qin Luo nodded, "Judging from your wounds, your transformation will take a long time, and because of this, you are likely to retain all your memories. In terms of laymen and living habits, there is basically no difference from human beings. Only half Because the corpse has already been infected, there is no need to worry about being attacked by ordinary zombies; and after the transformation, your overall physical fitness will have a great leap. Almost all half-corpse people will have great strength, which can be called copper-skinned iron bones body."

"Really, really? Then I was a blessing in disguise?" Originally, he was still distressed that he was about to become a non-human, but the next moment Qin Luo's words made him feel that he had become a superhuman.

Qin Luo nodded again, Fang Xiaoyu and Ye Chen looked envious, how they wish Dai Tianqing could have such luck.

Dai Tianqing sighed deeply, and Gu Shunyang quickly restrained the joy on his face, after all, one of the three people opposite was going to become a zombie.

"Can you extract the antibody sample from the half-corpse to prevent the infected body from turning into a zombie?" Ye Chen asked hopefully.

Qin Luo shook his head, "Your idea is very good, but it has been proven to be ineffective. Even if it is effective, do you think it is possible to extract antibodies in our current situation?"

Ye Chen's eyes dimmed again, and Qin Luo turned to look at Dai Tianqing, "Actually, the zombies now are just the initial form of the zombie clan. Because of the complexity of the human brain, they will have a long growth period after being shuffled. An inappropriate metaphor, these people who have turned into zombies can be regarded as the larvae of a certain species. They gradually learn and transform from their instincts until one day they become mature."

Dai Tianqing's brows tightened, he vaguely felt that what Qin Luo wanted to express was definitely not as simple as the surface.

Sure enough, Qin Luo has the following: "Not all zombies will become mature, only a very small part of them can grow slowly. This is also a kind of survival of the fittest. But even if they have wisdom, they will only change. All flesh and blood creatures on this planet will become their food, especially human beings."

These few words completely shattered Dai Tianqing's extravagant hopes, he slowly closed his eyes, "Get ready, no matter what, I don't want to be a walking dead who doesn't have any human memory and only knows about killing."

Qin Luo seems to have made up his mind to be a villain. "There are two types of death: a happy death with your own memory, and a numb death with complete loss of memory. If you choose the former, you will have about two hours to live. If you choose the latter, you will die." You should be able to live another two hours. If I were you, I would choose the former."

Fang Xiaoyu couldn't sit still, "Qin Luo, can you stop being so cruel, my elder brother is going to die."

Ye Chen bit his lips so hard that he stared at Qin Luo without speaking.

Dai Tianqing opened her eyes, "Xiaoyu, Qin Luo is right, if you still treat me as the eldest brother, I hope you can respect my choice."

Qin Luo stood up, "Treasure the distance between these two hours, and I won't bother you for now."

As he spoke, he dragged Mo upstairs, leaving the hall to the three brothers.

Mo walked beside Qin Luo, and suddenly asked in a low voice, "Am I not going to be infected?"

Qin Luo turned her head to see him nodding slightly, and Mo then asked, "What about you?"

Qin Luo shook his head, "Although my antibody is not as strong as yours, I won't be easily infected."

Mo looked at Qin Luo intently, "I'm still thinking, you obviously care about me, why aren't you afraid that I'll be infected."

Qin Luo rubbed his hair at the corner, "Your blood is highly poisonous to viruses, and they can only escape if they see you, so you never have to worry."

Two hours later, when Qin Luo returned to the hall again, most of Dai Tianqing's body had lost consciousness, and he couldn't even hold a knife.

"Thank you Qin Luo." Dai Tianqing said sincerely.

Qin Luo reluctantly nodded, he hoped his decision was right.

When Mo helped Dai Tianqing upstairs, Qin Luo said to Ye Chen and Fang Xiaoyu, "You guys wait outside, I don't want to use a gun, try not to damage his body. But after the end, Mo and I have to observe him inside at least Two hours to make sure he doesn't turn into a zombie."

Neither of the two answered the conversation, and Qin Luo didn't expect any normal reaction from them at this moment, so he followed Mo upstairs.

Qin Luo led Dai Tianqing to a guest room that Aunt Liu had just cleaned. When the door closed, Dai Tianqing's tears couldn't stop falling down. He heard Ye Chen's heartbreaking cry and Fang Xiaoyu's crazy roar.
