Early the next morning, after eating the delicious breakfast prepared by Aunt Liu, I appease my stomach.
Qin Luocai carefully told several people what happened in the hospital yesterday. Regarding the ZO research materials copied by Professor Huang Canyun, he once again hid the part about ink in good faith.
Mo lowered his head and wondered what he was thinking, while the others sighed endlessly, not only feeling sorry for the soldiers who were killed, but also worrying about Commander Zhang and the garrison. I don't know what kind of harmful things those crazy guys in ZO will do.
Qin Luo took out the form of income space and showed it to several people. Through the induction of space, Qin Luo can be sure that this watch does not have tracking function, but what it is used for, he is not very clear.
Several people have never seen this thing before, and dare not play with it casually. Mo Na went over to study for a while, and then he pressed some button, and the thing actually spit out the transparent chip it contained.
Mo carefully held the chip, frowned and looked at it for a while, but he didn't seem to see why. The rest of the people have never even seen this transparent high-tech chip like a fingernail. Mo put the chip back and returned the watch to Qin Luo.
Qin Luo couldn't help sighing softly, and once again missed the numerous talents in the League of Salvators, especially Tong Wei, a young genius who was named a ghost. I really don't know where those guys are hiding now, seeing Mo's look like he has everything he needs, Qin Luo has the urge to bang his head against the wall.
When Aunt Liu saw that Qin Luo had finished talking about what happened last night, she sighed and said, "I don't know if you found out, but there was a power outage today."
The few people were silent, and the water and electricity cutoffs were expected, but they didn't expect it to be so fast. Especially Qin Luo, who had experienced the end times, frowned even more.
Qin Luo remembered that the external power supply was almost cut off a month before the garrison withdrew. And their villa area here, because there is another backup automatic generator. As long as the outgoing power supply is cut off, the automatic generator here will start immediately, so it lasted for about seven days. How could it be so early this time that there is no power supply anymore
Thinking of this, Qin Luo asked Aunt Liu, "What about the water supply?"
Aunt Liu sighed softly and shook her head helplessly.
Gu Shunyang asked strangely, "Isn't this place claiming that there is no continuous water supply? How could it be possible that there is no backup generator and reserve water? When the city loses electricity and water supply, this place also disappears?"
Qin Luo rubbed his forehead, "Of course not, there is only one possibility for this to happen."
Ye Chen let go of his clenched lips, looked at Qin Luo and said, "You mean, someone cut off the water and electricity supply here!"
Qin Luo nodded, "The water and electricity supply of the entire villa area is located in the northwest. Not only does a gangster laundering boss live there, but also a businessman with an unusual background. Even without them, there will still be other forces thinking about it."
Dai Tianqing said helplessly, "I must have found out that the army had already withdrawn, so I dared to rob the remaining limited supplies. The city will definitely be more chaotic in the future. Everyone wants to take this opportunity to get more food to last longer."
Qin Luo knew in his heart that at that time, the army had persisted for half a year, and the supplies were basically exhausted. Because of the deterrence of the army, even the forces capable of looting, they all forbear and shrink back. After all, in this troubled world, as long as there are elements that threaten public security, the army will directly strangle them. After the army withdrew, the targeted supplies were basically exhausted, and even if they wanted to loot, they couldn't loot anything. But the situation at this time is just the opposite. The departure of the army may cause chaos in the city.
Ye Chen tapped the table lightly with his hand, "If the electricity and water supply there are only used by one villa, it may last for a year or so."
From the meaning of his words, everyone can more or less understand his thoughts.
It is a great temptation, for them, and for others as well. For such an obvious benefit, those who snatch it and protect it will fight desperately.
These people have not experienced the end of the world, and they thought that after a year or so, there would be some changes. But Qin Luo knew very well in his heart that even if he got those things, he would only die a while later. Maybe it will cause disasters and cause disasters, and die faster.
Qin Luo was about to share his views with a few people, when suddenly there were intensive gunshots from the northwest, as if two parties had already fought each other. Aunt Liu touched the prayer beads on her wrist and kept saying 'Buddha bless'.
Gu Shunyang frowned, "Although this is a high-end villa area, there are relatively fewer zombies. But if they continue to fight like this, the gunshots will attract more zombies sooner or later."
Dai Tianqing snorted, "If the zombies surround it, even if the water and electricity can keep them going for a while, there may not be enough food to survive."
Ye Chen sighed for a long time, he knew what Dai Tianqing said was right, they couldn't participate in the snatching right now, otherwise they would be the ones caught in the siege of zombies.
Qin Luo knocked on the table with a smile, "Don't be so sad, even if we get the power and water supply there, it will only last for another year or so. You don't think that as long as you last for a year or so, there will be something Change. Believe me, this is a long-term fight for survival. We have to find a way to get energy and water supplies for a longer period of time."
Gu Shunyang scratched his chin, "Long-term energy and water supply? If it is clean energy such as solar energy and wind energy, as long as the machine itself does not fail, it should be able to last for a long time. However, long-term water sources are not easy to find, and surface water sources are easily consumed. Pollution, groundwater... definitely not around here."
Ye Chen raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly, "Qin Luo, don't be a fool. You can tell by the wicked smile on your face that you must have a target."
Qin Luo touched his face, "Is it so obvious?"
Several people smiled and nodded.
Qin Luo took out a map of City J, which he randomly searched outside a few days ago. Then he pointed to a place in the suburbs, and said to several people, "This is a research institute related to clean energy. It is equipped with dual-energy generators, which can use solar energy and wind energy to continuously generate electricity. And there are many research institutes that are related to clean energy. Good stuff about it."
Several people's eyes lit up when they heard this, but Gu Shunyang said, "That thing must be very big, how do we transport it back?"
Fang Xiaoyu, who had her tongue and half of her face covered with medicine, pointed at Qin Luo, with obvious meaning. Qin Luo can carry a lot of things in his space. Since he can hold so many medicines, it should not be a problem compared to installing a generator.
Dai Tianqing looked at the map and frowned. "This place is very close to the military zone station. If Ming Qiang attracts resistance from within the research institute, it may attract the attention of the military zone. It may cause some trouble."
Ye Chen continued, "If it's just attracting the attention of the military region, it's okay to say, the most important thing is that there is a fake commander in the military region who doesn't know what is planning, ZO may have other people there, if they really pay attention , the consequences will be even worse.”
Qin Luo nodded, "Obviously robbing is definitely not an option, and it is best to resolve conflicts without conflict. We must act as soon as possible. If the army notices such a good thing there, they will definitely take action. But I think they should not It will be so fast, after all, the ZO people seem to have some secrets to rush forward. Originally, the research institute was very inconspicuous, and there were no armed people in it except the regular guards. At this time, even if there are sporadic researchers hiding inside, they will not become Threat. Besides, it’s a suburb, and it’s inconvenient to get food, so no one would persist there for so long.”
Mo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "It shouldn't be difficult to obtain power generation equipment, but the water source is a more difficult problem to solve."
Although Mo knew that there was a lot of water stored in Qin Luo's place, there were several people in the house all of a sudden, and Qin Luo's posture seemed to increase the number of people, so the water source would definitely be a big problem by then.
Ye Chen continued, "Yes, water source is also a big problem."
Qin Luo sighed softly, "My space is still evolving. After a certain evolution stage, there will be a purification function. It can purify water sources and restore expired and rotten food. But I don't know how long it will take to have it. Such a function."
It took two full years last time, but if you want to expand the team, slowly accumulate strength to compete with ZO. The water and food reserves in Qin Luo's space are far from enough.
Gu Shunyang patted him on the shoulder, "This is too cool! It's great to have space."
Dai Tianqing frowned and thought, "Before Qin Luo evolves such an ability, we still need to obtain a clean enough water source."
Qin Luo looked at Fang Xiaoyu, turned the conversation to the others and said, "Just now when I said ZO mutants, I also mentioned that human beings will have genetic mutations to obtain different abilities."
After Fang Xiaoyu heard this, she couldn't help showing a hint of color on her face. She pointed at herself with her thumb, and was glared at by Ye Chen angrily. Dai Tianqing looked at Qin Luo suspiciously, not knowing why he suddenly brought up the matter of the supernatural being.
Qin Luo went on to say, "Actually, supernatural beings are divided into five categories. The first type of supernatural beings is relatively more numerous, and they are called self-sustaining supernatural beings. They can change their body structure by controlling the molecular weight of certain attributes. For example : You can transform your body into solid stone, or scorching flames, or flowing water. But these are all energies that cannot be released outside. Only by changing yourself can you achieve self-protection or attack the enemy .They will return to their normal human form in normal times or when their energy consumption is too high, and they will also be bitten and attacked by zombies, but the chance of infection is relatively low."
Gu Shunyang smacked his lips, "This is already very powerful. Take the person who can transform into a rock body and say: If he wants to attack someone, it is equivalent to hitting someone with a stone; and if the other party attacks him, he is hitting a stone. The same goes for the water one, he turns into a water whip and can beat people, but when others want to hit him, it’s no different than hitting water, it can’t cause any harm at all.”
Qin Luo nodded, "What I want to talk about is the water attribute power users here. Although they can't create a lot of clean water out of thin air, they have the function of purification. It's a bit like a filter, which can pass through some kind of transformation. Turn polluted water into normal drinking water."
Dai Tianqing smiled and said, "That is to say, as long as we find a water attribute supernatural being, it is equivalent to having a water purifier."
Qin Luo nodded again, "Our place is only one kilometer away from the nearest river. It is not difficult to get water. I can retrieve a lot of water through the space for purification. According to the influence of the current environment, the supernatural being will change Soon. It's not hard to find a person with supernatural abilities, as long as we provide him with food, he should be able to help us purify the water source."
Ye Chen was even more curious about the other four, and asked, "What about the other kinds of supernatural beings?"
"The second type of superhumans is relatively rare, and they are called external superhumans. They can control certain types of energy in the existing environment. For example, external superhumans with water attributes can turn water within a certain distance into Frostbolts can attack at a slightly longer distance, and can also turn water into a wall for defense. But this attack and defense will be restricted by external conditions. They will not change in any way, almost the same as normal people, only their physical fitness Relatively better."
Fang Xiaoyu was a little anxious, and pointed to herself, "What about me?"
The two types of supernatural beings mentioned by Qin Luo seem to be different from him. When he released the flame, his arm was still in the normal state, and did not assimilate into the flame; at that time, there was no source of fire nearby.
Qin Luo smiled at him, "The third type of mutants is very rare, and they are called elemental abilities. They not only have the advantages of the first two types of abilities, but also can create corresponding elements. For example, they release a large amount of flames, Or sprinkle a lot of sand and gravel out of thin air, or create a lot of clean water."
Fang Xiaoyu pointed at herself, and Qin Luo nodded to him, "You should be a very rare fire elemental user."
Ye Chen rolled his eyes, "He just doesn't have a long tail now, otherwise he would be able to fly up to the sky."
Mo Jie said, "It would be great if there was a water elemental power."
Dai Tianqing also nodded, "Yes, then there is no need to fetch water for purification, and there will be a lot of clean water directly."
Ye Chen sighed, "Qin Luo said that people with elemental abilities are very rare, and it is already very rare for Xiaoyu to be a person with fire elemental abilities." Then he turned his head to Xiaoyu and complained, "Obviously called Xiaoyu, why should he be with water?" Let’s get to the bottom of it, why is it the fire element.”
Fang Xiaoyu lay powerlessly on the table. He finally got a rare breed and was disgusted by him.
Mo is also very curious about supernatural beings, "Then what kind of supernatural beings are the remaining two?"
"The other two are communication-like abilities and mutation-like abilities. Among the communication-type abilities, there are relatively more people who communicate with animals and use the mutated powerful animals to attack. They can communicate with plants, and even Those that give birth to plant seeds to attack are very rare."
Speaking of which, Qin Luo glanced at Ye Chen inadvertently, "There are only two types of mutant power users, one is space-type power users, and the other is healing-type power users. Space power users, as the name suggests, are like In this way, I store matter through space. Very few of them can evolve other corresponding space attack or defense abilities, and more low-level space power users only play a storage role.”
Ye Chen asked, "What is the characteristic code of the healing system?"
"Healing people with supernatural abilities is very rare. Not only can they heal their own injuries quickly, but they can also repair other people's wounds at a certain stage. Although they cannot completely cure people bitten by zombies, they can delay the onset of the virus and promote He transformed into a low-level half-corpse man. Therefore, having a healing power user is equivalent to owning a half-corpse army to a certain extent. Therefore, in the future, healing power users will become a kind of resource, used by many power struggle."
Ye Chen swallowed nervously, and carefully shook his injured ankle. Dai Tianqing noticed his movement and frowned.
"The medicine Aunt Liu applied to me is very effective, and my ankle no longer hurts today." Ye Chen squeezed out a smile.
Fang Xiaoyu scratched her head and looked at Qin Luo. Qin Luo raised her eyebrows, "I remember your sprain, which was quite serious. Xiaoyu's face was not healed yet, so you recovered? The same medicine, the difference won't be so big Bar."
Ye Chen spread his hands, "Well, I suspect that I am from the healing department, but I can't rule out the effect of the medicine. If I am not from the healing department, don't be disappointed."
Mo glanced at Ye Chen and nodded, "It's not bad to know medicine and heal."
Qin Luo cautiously said, "Don't expose Ye Chen's ability easily, lest people covet it."
Faced with Qin Luo and Mo's positive attitude, Ye Chen was a little speechless. Thinking of Qin Luo's chest injury, Ye Chen said, "Then can I help you heal the chest injury? To be honest, I don't know what to do at all."
Qin Luo shook his head, "Now you can barely recover from your own less serious wounds, and you can't heal others. If you are injured enough to be fatal, you will die. The same is true for others. It doesn't mean that you have some kind of power or that you are invincible The existence of. When everyone does not have enough fighting power, please protect yourself and don't act impulsively."
At this time, the gunfire in the northwest had been intermittently quieted down. Just when a few people thought that the fight over there was over, there was a sudden violent explosion, and even the ground trembled.
Gu Shunyang shrank his neck in shock from the explosion, "These people can't be so cruel."
Dai Tianqing snorted softly, "I don't want to get it and I'm not reconciled, so I can only ruin it, and everyone should not think about it for cheap."
Mo looked at Qin Luo, "Those have nothing to do with us, let's talk about which ones to pick up the dual-energy power generation equipment."
Qin Luo pointed to himself, "I'm definitely going."
Mo also followed his example and pointed to himself, "I'm definitely going too, don't even think about abandoning me."
Dai Tianqing thought for a while, "I also want to follow, I don't know if it will cause trouble for you."
Mo glanced at him, and said honestly, "It's sure to cause trouble, but I think it may be more troublesome if you are left at home and your blood thirst occurs. Since you have almost adapted to the changed body, follow We can go for a walk."
Dai Tianqing's face was full of black lines. He felt that when Mo said adapt, he meant that he was hanging upside down from the ceiling.
Qin Luo patted the table with both hands, "Then let's rest for half an hour and leave in half an hour."
Gu Shunyang was a little reconciled, except for the old, weak, women and children, and Gu Qingyang, who was seriously injured, he was the only one who didn't "go out on a mission".
Ye Chen didn't argue with Qin Luo, but nodded and patted Gu Shunyang, "Then Xiaoyu, Shunyang and I will stay and take care of the house. Be careful."
Qin Luo got up and planned to go back to his room to change clothes, but Mo grabbed him and said, "How do you know so much?"
Qin Luo blinked, "Are you curious?"
Mo looked at him, "They are also very curious, but they are too embarrassed to ask directly."
The few people who listened with their ears upright looked around, pretending that they were not listening at all.
Qin Luo chuckled, "Would you believe me if I said that I have experienced the end of the world and lived in that environment for ten years?"
Mo nodded without hesitation, "Yes."
Qin Luo was taken aback, "Why? You believe me when I say it so casually?" Then he pinched Mo's face, turned and went upstairs.
Mo whispered, "The blood race has its own ability to detect many details that humans can't detect. When you speak, your heartbeat doesn't change, and the expression on your face doesn't have the slightest disguise, so you're telling the truth."
The few people watched Qin Luo go upstairs in a daze. If Qin Luo didn't lie to Mo, then under what circumstances did he live in the end of the world for ten years? This is the question that popped up in the hearts of several people at the same time.
