Dangerous Survival in the Apocalypse

Chapter 98

Views:

Once the route has been planned, it is not possible to start immediately. The materials in the entire research center have not been cleaned up yet.

Probably because the zombies in the research center were dealt with by Tang Song and the others. Xiong Manshan never intervened. Since he joined the team, everyone found food supplies for the first time, and there were a lot of them. The rice, flour, grain and oil in the cafeteria In addition to the biscuits, bread, coffee, milk, etc. collected scattered from various floors, it is quite spectacular when piled together like a mountain.

Shen Shi'an collected half of the food, and the remaining half was sealed and placed in the most conspicuous place in the lobby on the first floor of the main building, so that other survivors could come in and search;

Medicines are definitely one of the most scarce goods in the post-apocalyptic world. No matter which base they are placed in, they are worth a lot. Because Shen Shian and others have the regeneration ability of Lingquan and Taoyuan, there is not much demand for medicines, but for insurance For the sake of one-third, even if you don't use it yourself, you can still trade with other people after arriving in the capital. Medical supplies such as syringes, infusion tubes, and gauze bandages also earned a lot. Liu Fangzhou also obtained a set of brand new and complete dissection equipment.

Shen Shi'an added a batch of clean domestic water to the space again, and took out the generator obtained from the library and replaced it with more sophisticated and efficient power supply equipment in the research center.

Finally, under Tang Song's suggestion, Shen Shi'an collected all the experimental equipment and high-end medical equipment that could be found on the upper and lower floors into the space—unless the production and manufacturing industry is fully restored, these things will be extremely precious for a long time Nonrenewable resources.

In addition, Shen Shi'an found Tang Song and the two: "In order to prevent any accidents, I hope that the blood sample can be given to me to store in the space."

Tang Song was a little hesitant—it wasn’t that he was worried that Shen Shi’an wanted to take the blood sample for himself. Under the current situation, both he and Lin Ruan were under the knife, and even if the other party wanted to kill them, it seemed easy. There are still living creatures on the ground, isn't the space of the space power user unable to store living things?"

Shen Shi'an looked at him and said nothing.

Tang Song understood, and was shocked in his heart: space that can store living things? This is simply unheard of, how does the dead space formed by the ability construct the necessary environment for the survival of creatures? Where does oxygen come from? How is the temperature regulated? Can people go in too

Originally, he just lamented the huge storage space of the other party, so the mystery of this Mr. Shen may have just revealed the tip of the iceberg.

A frenzy flashed across his eyes, and he nodded to Shen Shi'an: "In this case, it is indeed safer to give the blood sample to Mr. Shen."

Lin Ruan immediately brought over the cryogenic storage, "Don't worry, Mr. Shen, we will never reveal a word about your space."

Shen Xun hugged his cartoon water bottle and snorted coldly: "Try if you have the guts, you can't confide if you want to." Snapping your fingers can kill you.

Lin Ruan only felt a dull pain in her right arm, and dared not speak out.

Humph, what a nuisance.

The area of the research center is too large. After cleaning up all the floors, the sky has already darkened. Everyone discussed it and decided to go to the big balcony on the top floor of the main building for an open-air barbecue.

Located in the suburbs, there are few buildings around, and the view is very wide. Standing on the roof, you can clearly see the dark golden, dark red, and dark yellow billowing clouds in the sky. Like an elf in the twilight, it sprinkles brilliant light all the way.

Xiong Manshan stood on the edge of the railing, looking at the magnificent scenery with great poetry:

"When a mass of clouds lights up the evening,

The red light shines on the stubble,

At this time, the little flying insects under the river willow,

humming in groups,

Up and down, dizzy by the wind.

The oil katydids under the fence are singing,

In the garden, the red-breasted birds screamed in shock,

The sheep are shouting at the top of their voices in the mountain circle... "

Liu Fangzhou smiled: "Brother Xiong, what are you talking about?"

"It's Keats' "Ode to Autumn," Lin Ruan said, with a strange look on his face: "There are many translations of this poem, but this is the first time I've seen the Northeast dialect version."

Chen Nan joked: "Brother Xiong, have you secretly recited poems behind our backs? Isn't this something only Xun Xun can do?" After reciting a song, he performed live, and after the performance, he asked Shen Ge to make shredded sweet potatoes for him.

"Where are you going?" Xiong Manshan blushed, "This is my old line of work. My undergraduate and graduate studies are both foreign poetry and literature. It's really strange to know a poem."

"What are you reading???!"

Several voices sounded at the same time, and Liu Fangzhou opened his mouth so wide that he could swallow a mutated tomato: "Brother Xiong, are you majoring in foreign poetry and literature?"

"Yeah, didn't I tell you?"

Strange to say.

Liu Fangzhou tried hard to keep his mouth shut: "... I always thought you were learning tanks at Lanxiang Driving School."

Xu Ge nodded subconsciously, and everyone laughed.

Xiong Manshan didn't have the same knowledge as them, and raised his hand to wrap Lin Ruan's shoulders: "We are still educated. Are you working in a confidential office like Major Tang? Tsk tsk, you are a scientist at such a young age, and you can study The genetic code zombie virus and so on are really amazing, you can tell me how your brain grows. I look at you, you should not be an adult, right?"

Standing beside Xiong Manshan, Lin Ruan looked like a deer next to a big black bear in an old forest deep in the mountains. He was weak, cute and innocent, and easily squeezed the bear's paw that could crush people off his body: "I have grown up a long time ago. I am twenty years old this year. Four."

Xiong Manshan looked at his size and then at his face: "... How old are you?"

"Twenty-four, this is the year of birth."

"Oh, okay," Liu Fangzhou leaned over to make up the knife, "I'm the same year as Brother Xiong!"

Chen Nan: "I can't tell at all."

Gou Zijing: "Like father and son."

Tao Yuan smiled at Lin Ruan: "I am two years older than you."

"Really? Brother looks really small!"

Xiong Manshan didn't believe in evil, "How old is Major Tang?"

Hold on to 212, or commit suicide.

"Twenty-eight."

"... Shouldn't all of you who are engaged in scientific research be bald and age quickly?"

"We study genes. It's very simple to make yourself a cup of youth potion when you have nothing to do."

Xiong Manshan's eyes lit up: "Really?!"

"fake."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha… "

Xiong Manshan: "..."

Jealousy makes me have a good appetite and a strong body, getting older and better.

Two rows of barbecue grills were set up, and the charcoal gave off a warm orange-red glow under Xu Ge's palm. Everyone divided the work of chopping and skewering vegetables, and the magnificent sunset glow that remained in the sky gradually disappeared, and the sky turned completely dark.

The fluorescent lamps at the entrance of the balcony have been lit long ago, and the railings are also covered with various colored lights found in the storage room downstairs, illuminating this space with radiance, especially eye-catching in the night.

Tao Yuan looked up at the densely packed mosquitoes of various colors buzzing above everyone's heads, and couldn't help sighing, "It turns out that illusion can still be used like this."

Thousands of mutated mosquitoes and various moths came following the light, but as soon as they approached the balcony within five meters, they seemed to have lost their way. The barrier keeps them out.

Liu Fangzhou, who has always been the most popular with mosquitoes, raised Bai Shengsheng's arm and shook it back and forth at the mosquito's mouthparts, but he didn't get any response, "Hey, this is amazing, this is better than any toilet water. Major Tang, Can you release this illusion in a wide range?"

Tang Song nodded: "Such a large range is already close to the limit. If it is further expanded, there will be loopholes because the abilities cannot be replenished in time. But mosquitoes are much more confusing than humans."

Shen Shi'an asked: "If the function of illusion is to confuse thinking, your ability should not be effective against ordinary mutant zombies?"

"That's right. Ordinary zombies have no intelligence. They only act according to the instinct to devour flesh and blood and obtain DNA. Illusion can't affect them at all. Currently, it only works on supernatural zombies."

"Aren't ordinary zombies full of zombie viruses?" Xiong Manshan was puzzled: "According to what you said, the viruses can communicate, and they must have thoughts. Isn't it okay to use illusion directly on the viruses?"

Tang Song shook his head: "I tried it. But the ability is far from being able to go deep into the level of the virus, otherwise the healing ability can directly crack the zombie virus."

Ah, that's true.

Chen Nan thought for a while: "Actually, there is not much difference. A zombie with a supernatural power controls a normal zombie, and you control a zombie with a supernatural power. In the final analysis, the effect is the same."

It's just that it's a little troublesome when encountering a group of zombies that haven't yet evolved supernatural powers, but there are thousands or tens of thousands of them.

The skewered meat skewers, vegetable skewers, fruit skewers, grilled sausages, etc. were put on the grill one after another, brushed with grease and seasonings, and sizzled on the hot charcoal fire, and the tempting aroma soon filled the whole floor balcony.

Everyone sat on the ground around a long low table. Lin Ruan took a bunch of goose wing tips from Xu Singer. He ate so hot that he gasped, and quickly took a sip of cold beer. The scorched meat rushed into the viscera, closed his eyes and let out a long sigh: Ah, life.

A day ago, such a level of food would definitely make him suspect that Tang Song had performed illusions on him.

Tang Song stared at the fat and tender wingtips in his hands that were bigger than his face for a long time, "This is the same as the one I ate at noon, is it also a mutant goose?"

Shen Shi'an took two skewers of grilled broccoli for the child, and carefully removed the bamboo sticks to prevent him from poking himself. Hearing this, he nodded: "The ones I met on the road weighed about two tons on average."

He and Shen Xun met a total of thirteen mutated geese back then. Shen Xun hacked one to death and ate it for more than three months. It was finally consumed after Xiong Manshan joined in. What he ate now was just slaughtered a week ago. It is absolutely no problem to eat in the capital.

Lin Ruan said: "The teacher and I met a group of mutated goats, which looked like dinosaurs. It is estimated that one can only be eaten for half a year. It is a pity that we didn't catch it, but even if we caught it, we couldn't take it away. I remember that we were at noon. Haven’t you ever eaten goose eggs? Mr. Shen doesn’t plan to save the eggs to hatch goose cubs in the future?”

"Can't hatch."

"Huh? Why?"

Shen Shi'an directly took out a goose egg from the space: "Knock and see."

Tang Song knocked carefully, his expression changed, he took the long-handled knife for cutting fruit and knocked again, "It's very hard."

"It's very high," Shen Shi'an said, "I have to use a sword to split it. With such a high hardness, there is no way for the cub to break out of the shell."

"How is the fighting power of the mutant goose? If the cub inherits the power of the mutant goose, maybe it can..."

Shen Shi'an shook his head: "I'm afraid the mutated goose eggs will only be ordinary goslings."

Tang Song's eyes were completely different, and he expressed great interest: "How did Mr. Shen know?"

Shen Shi'an briefly described what he saw and heard in Noah's Ark: "...the captain wanted to breed more supernatural beings through the combination of supernatural beings, but all the fetuses in the womb of those female supernatural beings It's ordinary people."

"So, the dna mutation caused by the virus cannot be inherited?" Tang Song didn't even bother to eat, and was completely immersed in intense thinking.

Xu Ge was puzzled: "In the case of sexual reproduction, don't both parents get half of the DNA? If both the paternal gene and the maternal gene have been mutated, why did the child become an ordinary person again?" It doesn't make sense.

Tang Song seemed to be having a storm of thinking in his head, and quickly said: "There are two possibilities: First, human DNA has evolved to its current state after millions of years of evolution, and its complexity and mystery are far from Beyond imagination, supernatural viruses can temporarily mutate individual genes, but this abnormal variation will be forcibly returned to its original position during the reproduction process, that is, dna itself has the ability to reject and correct errors; second, dna determines the species From a genetic point of view, the survivors who were infected with the supernatural virus and whose dna was rearranged may no longer belong to the same species, which means that there will be a certain reproductive isolation between different individuals, so there are differences in the genetic process. Mistakes, supernatural beings cannot breed supernatural beings."

"So, when our generation of supernatural beings dies, there will be no supernatural beings in this world?"

Lin Ruan said: "It won't be so fast. In our current environment, the air and water are full of protoviruses. Although the mutated organisms can only breed ordinary organisms, ordinary organisms will be exposed to the original virus. Afterwards, a new round of mutations will occur, and mutant geese among animals or supernatural beings among humans will evolve again. However, these original viruses will always be less and less, and when the original viruses in the ecological circulation system are all consumed, The world will return to the way it was one day."

Everyone was thoughtful, and couldn't tell what they were feeling in their hearts for a while.

Xiong Manshan took advantage of other people's discussions to fill his stomach half full. At this time, he honestly stood by the barbecue grill to serve everyone. He smacked his mouth twice: "You said this virus is also very interesting, it can either turn people into zombies, or evolve people with various abilities, making animals bigger for a while, and shrinking animals for a while, what is the picture? That's all."

Tang Song looked up at him: "Make animals smaller?"

"Yeah, what's the matter, you haven't seen animals that get smaller?" Xiong Manshan's tone was full of enthusiasm to show off his own children: "Come on, boss, quickly show our Yuanyuanguo to the big guys." Look, it happens that the two little ones haven't eaten yet."

With a thought in Shen Shi'an's mind, two fluffy lion cubs the size of an adult's palm immediately appeared beside the long table. At first sight of the unfamiliar environment, they lowered their bodies vigilantly, and after a while they began to surround Chen Nan and the others in a familiar way and act like a spoiled child. .

Lin Ruan was stunned: "You guys even have pets!"

Xu Ge smiled and handed him a piece of raw goose meat: "It's cute, tear it into small pieces the size of a fingernail and feed it a little bit. They don't bite—and it doesn't hurt."

Lin Ruan coaxed one over with meat, hugged it in his arms and couldn't stop masturbating; Tang Song had been observing carefully with a scientific and rigorous attitude, but after observing for a long time, he couldn't help but secretly rubbed the cub's tail with his hand.

Shen Shi'an also wanted to rub, but under the watchful eyes of Gou Zijing, he stopped the thought abruptly. With a calm and unwavering expression, he raised his hand and put a bunch of broccoli on his plate, and signaled with his eyes: Change my ears at night.

Gou Zijing nodded repeatedly. I was very happy in my heart: hee hee hee hee, the little lion is a fart, I am super cute, and An'an in the world likes me the most.

The darker the night, the stronger the aroma. Bamboo sticks and empty beverage cans and beer bottles were quickly scattered on the balcony.

The two cubs were full and started chasing and playing around. When they looked up and saw the mutated mosquitoes flying back and forth above them, they immediately wanted to scratch one off.

Xiong Manshan was leaning against the railing, holding a bunch of goose breast in his left hand and a bottle of cold beer in his right hand, enjoying himself while watching. Looking at it, I thought of a question: "Hey, mutant geese can grow to be as tall as several floors, why don't you say that mutant mosquitoes don't grow up more? If they grow to be as big as cars, wouldn't they swallow one at a time?" .”

"Big deal." Lin Ruan leaned on Tang Song, probably drunk a little too much, his pale face finally flushed a little rosy: "Female mosquitoes use blood as food, and their mouthparts are just big enough to insert\' How can it suck blood if it is too big? Mosquitoes don’t have the ability to digest anything other than blood.”

The 24-year-old young man, who looked like a weak and cute young lady, hiccupped, and said in a serious academic tone: "So Guangda is useless, you have to match the caliber, and you can get in and out without hindrance. Skill is very important."

Xiong Manshan spit out all the beer in his mouth with a puff, wiped his mouth and sat up straight: "Brother, if you talk about this, I won't be sleepy anymore!"

Xu Ge blushed, pretending not to hear, and turned around to tease the little lion; Chen Nan, Liu Fangzhou looked at each other, and laughed meaningfully.

Tang Song nodded in agreement: "Lin Ruan is right, the mosquito's technique of inserting its mouthparts into blood vessels is indeed extremely exquisite."

Several gay men laughed harder and harder.

Gou Zijing looked up at Shen Shi'an: "What are they laughing at?" Are you crazy about eating meat

Shen Shi'an stuffed a piece of potato into his mouth with a straight face: "Eat yours."

At the climax of the moon, the dinner was finally finished.

Tang Song stood up: "Leave it to me and Lin Ruan to clean up here, everyone go to rest first."

Xiong Manshan, who was about to start tidying up, immediately put down the dishes: "Then I won't be polite."

The last person to join does the dishes, as is tradition in the team. These two are quite discerning.

Tao Yuan and Shen Shi'an glanced at each other, landed at the back of several teammates, and stretched out their hands to Lin Ruan: "I hope everything goes well and we will arrive in the capital as soon as possible."

Lin Ruan held his hand, and suddenly his eyes lit up. The right arm hanging on the neck, tied with a splint and bandage flexibly squeezed his fist, and said sincerely: "I hope everything goes well, and I will arrive in the capital as soon as possible."
