The secondary evolution of the "resurrected zombies" happened almost at the same time. Like the zombies outside, three-tenths of the zombies that were caught back for research were upgraded to level 2 zombies.
Their evolution came without warning, and it seemed to happen naturally without any triggering conditions. The outbreak of the second-level ability almost caused the casualties of the researchers. They were too close, and the zombies attacked during the evolution period. Very ferocious and became very violent. Fortunately, the researchers all passed on protective clothing made of level-five mutated biological materials, and only one assistant took off his gloves for recording data, causing severe burns to his hands.
When the Pearl River Base was notified of this news, Duan Yin had basically completed the investigation of the cities around the base, and there was also a surge in the number of zombies. Most cities have neglected the similar situation of the base of the Yangtze River, which is much lighter.
Duan Yin: "The situation is the same at the Chuanyuan base. It is not easy to ask for support now."
Out of cooperation and humanitarianism, after confirming the "resurrection" of the zombies, Duan Yin notified the Kawahara base. The Kawahara Base, which had survived the zombie tide and planned to send people over to pay off the debts and at the same time take advantage of the Pearl River Base, had to put this plan on hold.
And because of the possibility of the resurrection of zombie creatures that Hou Ying was worried about, the Pearl River base was also very busy now, cleaning up the corpses of zombie creatures inside the three protective walls.
Fortunately, in order to use biological materials, the supernatural beings at the Pearl River base adhere to the principle of making the best use of everything, and usually do not allow zombies to keep the whole body. There has been no resurrection of zombies yet, and it is not difficult to deal with them now.
It's just that this kind of work also requires a lot of manpower, and the Pearl River base is too busy to take care of itself now, and there is no way to help parents.
This was expected, Patriarch Duan said: "This matter can't be dragged on any longer, we will find a way to deal with it, you take care of yourself." After a pause, he said: "Don't make Xiaozhen too tired .”
Duan Yin quickly responded.
After cutting off the communication, Hou Ying said: "Dad, Uncle Duan, let's dispatch as many people as possible here. The mobilization of the base formation army and the team should be able to solve the urgent need. We can only let the five-element superpowers at home take care of the reconstruction first." Woke up."
"That's my plan too." Li Han pinched his brows, "This will send people tasks and adjust the team's income to a higher level. They should be more dedicated."
"So, Dad, how are you going to explain this?"
It is said that the resurrection of zombies will cause panic, but the truth is not announced to the public. People continue the habit of digging out the crystal core and settle the matter, treating the symptoms but not the root cause.
Li Han looked at Patriarch Duan, saw that he did not make a statement, and said, "It won't be long, let's tell the truth."
Neither Hou Ying nor Patriarch Duan objected.
As soon as the base mission was released, it really caused a sensation in the whole base. The reconstruction of the outer city was taken over by the Xuanyuan family's five-element supernatural powers, and all resources were allocated according to Xuanyuanzhen's instructions. The work of cleaning up the zombies in the safe area was led by Peng Haodong and Duan Jiazhu, Li Han led the major teams, and Li Xuanyuan led Li Hou's team to start the work of clearing the zombies from four directions.
Due to her own particularity, Hou Ying stayed at the Yellow River base to take over the base protection work that Li Han was in charge of.
Li Hou's team is responsible for the cleaning of the eastern area. Compared with other areas, the number of manpower is pitifully small, but the efficiency is the highest. Peng Haodong was still worried about their safety before. After a day, all his worries turned into inquiry. What kind of strength Li Hou's team has, he asked himself, even his own fourth-level elite troops could not do this.
Unlike the other three parties who are stationed in the safe area and only allocate resource supplies to the bases claimed by manpower, Li Hou's team goes back and forth between the safe area and the base every morning and evening.
On this day, they rarely brought back a person.
Hou Ying was a little surprised when she saw him, she put down Li Hou who was entangled in her arms, stood up and said with a smile, "Boss Qin, long time no see. Or should I call Captain Qin now?"
It was Qin Youchun who came.
Ever since the level 7 zombie was wiped out, Qin Youchun led a group of people from Wangjia Village to the Yellow River base, and formed a team—the King's Team. Because of their outstanding performance against the zombie tide, they have been promoted to the A-level team .
Hou Ying was busy running around during this time, and she didn't deliberately learn about their recent situation. She only found out about this news after hearing Ye Huizhong mention it by chance.
This little girl usually doesn't like to say anything, but she is easy to inquire about. She still maintains friendly communication with several C-level teams that she made friends with in the past, so she is very well informed about some gossip.
For example, the rivalry between Kings and Changbai.
I heard that the two sides fought several times, but I didn't hear who was better.
Qin Youchun smiled and said: "Success, I didn't dare to answer Hou Dui's calling me boss. It's more practical to go to the countryside and do as the Romans do."
"Qin team is still so straightforward. We are all old acquaintances. Qin team will definitely go to the Three Treasures Hall for a visit. If you need help, just speak up. However, if we are in a ring with the base team, we can't help. I'm busy."
Now is the time when the Yellow River Base is employing personnel. No matter how good the friendship is, Hou Ying will not interfere with the grievances between the teams and cause the loss of personnel.
Qin Youchun hurriedly said: "How dare you embarrass you, besides, we won't be happy if we don't avenge ourselves."
Ever since they came to the Yellow River base, there was not a day when they didn't want to give Zhu Liang and the Changbai team a change of color, but the other party was very close to the Duan family, and because of their outstanding ability, they were also favored by the assistant of the head of the Duan family. And although they got closer to Xuanyuan's family, they only looked at Hou Ying's favor. Xuanyuan's family provided convenience at the beginning, but it didn't really pay off, so naturally they couldn't afford the protection of Xuanyuan's family.
"There is indeed a request, but it will definitely not embarrass Team Hou."
Qin Youchun smiled and explained why he came.
It turned out that during the time since they settled in the Yellow River base, due to various reasons, the King's team kept the matter of their fusion with animals a secret, only some snakes and a few dogs were placed outside to act as mutated pets.
This time they cooperated with other teams, and they couldn't take on independent missions as freely as before, so their combat effectiveness was also limited. When Qin Youchun heard the news that Hou Li's team was in charge of a region, he wondered if Hou Ying could join them. They had no secrets in front of Hou Li's team. They also knew the real combat power of Hou Li's team, and the cooperation between the two parties would be more comfortable.
Hou Ying didn't agree, but looked at Li Xuanyuan and Liu Zhan. The latter had no objection, so he agreed: "Yes, but if we act together, Team Qin must prepare to cooperate with us."
The command authority still needs to be clear.
Qin Youchun fully agreed.
After seeing Qin Youchun off, Hou Ying asked about today's cleanup work, and when he learned that everything was as usual, he didn't care any more. Although there are many resurrected zombies in the safe area, with the ability of Li Hou's team, this job is cumbersome but not difficult.
Liu Zhan asked concerned: "Brother Monkey, has the base researched anything about why the zombies were resurrected?"
Hou Ying: "It's just an inference at the moment. Some experts believe that the life signs of zombies can no longer be summarized by common sense, but must be fully supported by zombie viruses. If the zombie viruses accumulate to a certain extent, the zombie crystal nuclei will condense again. Others believe that It is the emergence of a special substance in this weather change that caused the resurrection of the zombies, maybe it is also possible that the zombie virus has evolved. There are other conjectures, anyway, there are different opinions, and it will take time to come to a conclusion."
Gongsun Jing said: "I think the first guess is more reliable."
Wang Hehe said: "According to the research experience of the Zhujiang base on zombie creatures, I think the second conclusion is more reliable. Every time the weather changes, the zombies will upgrade to a certain extent, which means that there is a certain substance during this period. Active, and this kind of thing can greatly increase the activity of the zombie virus. Maybe this time the evolution of the zombie is also related to this substance."
Wu Nan: "
Liu Zhandao: "It's all guesswork. You don't need to be too serious to affect your judgment. I don't think there are other possibilities. We still have to speak with facts."
After a few people argued for a while, Hou Ying interrupted them and said, "Okay, I'll charge the batteries for you, and go back to wash and sleep when you're done."
Li Xuanyuan and Meng Hanghai were dragged back to the bedroom by Li Hou early in the morning to see their new baby. Hou Ying replenished energy for the others, sent Li Xuanyuan to take a bath, and brought Meng Hanghai, Li Hou and Little Apple back to the next room. After being refused by Hou Ying to share the same bed with her two fathers, Li Hou moved to live with Meng Hanghai very unhappy. Time to connect with feelings.
Hou Ying replenished Meng Hanghai's energy, coaxed Li Hou for a while, and talked with Wang Hehe for a while before returning to the room.
Li Xuanyuan had already washed up, and was typing on the computer with the lights on. He was making a model diagram of the installation of supernatural weapons in the outer city for the Yellow River base.
Seeing Hou Ying coming in, she said without raising her head, "Shall we start?"
Hou Ying didn't answer, she leaned close to him and looked at it for a while, feeling a bit uncomfortable: "It's more attractive than me? Your soul has been taken away by this little fairy."
Li Xuanyuan gave him a hygienic eye, and said: "I'm busy with mine, you can start."
"oh."
Hou Ying stepped aside reluctantly, raised her hand, and condensed the energy of the five elements flowing in her body in the palm of her hand—he was trying to transmit it through the air.
Ever since the ability to absorb energy through the air was lit, Hou Ying tried to conduct it through the air. The colorless five-element energy heated up in Hou Ying's hands. This time he mobilized the energy absorbed by the fire-type crystal nucleus, which was naturally warm. He tried to send this energy into Li Xuanyuan's body.
But not surprisingly, the conduction this time failed again.
