"But humans won't let themselves be eliminated... Whether they are ordinary people or supernatural beings, they are fundamentally different from zombies... "
Speaking of which, a strange color flashed in Lucy's eyes, and she twitched the corners of her mouth reluctantly: "Zombies and humans are, after all, opposites. Now it's humans who are struggling under the weight of zombies in order to fight for a living space. , what about in the future? As long as humans don't perish, humans and zombies will continue to fight for survival resources, right?"
"Um… "
This is indeed the general idea of human beings, and Ling Mo can't refute it.
Although humans are gradually gaining a foothold, the group evolution of zombies is also quietly progressing.
At present, it seems that the group evolution of zombies is still controlled within a local scope, but in fact
In areas with human activities, zombies are still evolving rapidly. So what will happen to those areas that are completely occupied by zombies
Viruses not only give zombies a strong ability to adapt to the environment, but also allow them to choose different evolution directions according to different environments.
These are incomparable to human beings...
"The current advantage of our human beings is wisdom and hot weapons. But I always feel that maybe one day, the power user will become the trump card in the hands of human beings like hot weapons, even stronger than hot weapons. After all, hot weapons say In the end, it is still firepower, but in the face of high-level zombies, the consumption is too much. On the contrary, the ability users with different abilities are more suitable for dealing with those high-level zombies."
Lucy continued.
"These... I know all about it. But what does it have to do with this potion?" Ling Mo continued to ask.
"Every zombie has the possibility of becoming a high-level zombie, but is it possible for an ordinary person to become a superhuman?" Lucy said suddenly, and then gave Ling Mo a meaningful look.
"You mean..." Ling Mo's eyes widened instantly. Turning his attention to the potion.
Lucy nodded and said, "When he proposed this idea at the time. I also found it hard to believe... The appearance of the power user. It's about the same time period as the appearance of zombies. It's just that some people realized early on that they suddenly got the special power. Yes, some people are later... Like our fire, some people awakened their abilities on the second day of the cataclysm."
"Well..." This coincides with Ling Mo's conjecture.
"Do you believe that the appearance of the superhuman has nothing to do with the virus?" Lucy stared at Ling Mo, then sighed, "At first everyone found it difficult to accept, this damn virus might actually be our supernatural power. The source? But apart from the virus. We can't find a more reasonable explanation and statement."
"I see what you mean, and I've heard something like that..."
Ling Mo said: "The approximate meaning should be to say... All human beings were infected by the virus before the cataclysm broke out, right? It's just that the virus at that time has not mutated... When the virus began to evolve and mutate, most of the Humans have become zombies…”
"Yes, a small number of humans may be completely immune to the virus that mutated at the initial stage, or the virus in the body has not mutated... In short, they have not been infected. And among this part, there is a virus in the human body. Another mutation and Evolution has given these people supernatural powers..." Lucy pursed her lips. said with difficulty.
It is indeed difficult for the superpowers to accept the statement that "you are also a mutant".
Most humans don't want to have anything to do with zombies. This sudden rise of race completely destroyed them and made them lose everything.
I am afraid that many people have had the experience of being scared to pee or even crying, the kind of despair that sees neighbors, even relatives and friends savagely pounce on themselves, trying to tear themselves apart, I am afraid no one can accept it.
Some people may not be able to get out of that shadow until now, so it is a common phenomenon to have personality distortions...
Lucy knew this very well.
She was also an ordinary girl who loved to cry and laugh, holding a tissue box and watching late-night romance dramas...
But now when she thinks that she is slowly mutating, she feels cold all over.
She clenched her fists secretly, and after calming down for a while, she continued: "After having this idea, the researcher asked, can we make ordinary people also become power users according to this idea? At least, let the power They are stronger and become stronger at the same evolution speed as zombies. Only in this way can the superhumans become the backbone of mankind and support mankind to survive in the continuous battle for survival.”
If he hadn't seen this bottle of potion, Ling Mo would definitely have expressed his disbelief.
Everyone has ideas, but to research them, how can it be so simple
But now it seems that it is really a master in the folk...
"This researcher is... "
Lucy struggled for a while, then gritted her teeth and said, "Originally... the research has not been completely completed, so I can't tell you. The mysterious reward I wanted to promise you was actually a promise. As long as the research is successful, I will definitely I'll give you this potion. Even if I'm gone,..."
She also seemed to realize that she had slipped her tongue, so she coughed dryly and continued: "But... this time we fired and I'm sorry for you, but you didn't pursue it. I'm very grateful..."
"I know, if you had an absolute advantage, you wouldn't be so talkative, at least you would blackmail us..." Lucy gave Ling Mo a resentful look, "Thank you anyway."
Ling Mo's face was not pierced at all, but instead nodded: "Yeah!"
"Right now, what you have in your hand can only be regarded as a semi-finished product. It can be regarded as a powerful recovery potion. It is like taking a stimulant, which can instantly relieve pain and greatly improve physical strength. But to put it bluntly, it is also drinking poison to quench thirst and overdraw the body. To provide a means of life-saving in the battle of life and death. Zhen Zhiyuan and the others stole this to give themselves a layer of insurance. But I didn't expect that they would dare to take this kind of risk for the sake of profit... "
Lucy stared at the medicine bottle and sighed: "Who knows what the sequelae will be..."
"That researcher, you just met. His name is Mizaki, and he is a pseudonym. I don't know any other information."
After hearing Lucy's words, Ling Mo's expression froze for a moment.
Such a coincidence
When he shook hands with Miyazaki before, the feeling that made Ling Mo's back go numb seemed to return to his body.
He thought for a while, clenched the bottle in his hand, and said to himself, "If it were him, this potion might not have been stolen by them..."
Although it's just a feeling, Ling Mo has seldom experienced this kind of feeling like a light on his back.
The last time I felt it was when he was extremely weak, the first time his body faced a mutant zombie.
That oppressive power, the danger like a beast, may be hidden under that smiling face...
"now that… "
At this time, a stammering voice suddenly came from behind Ling Mo: "A person can... a mutant... that zombie... can become a human?"
Ling Mo immediately turned around and found that Ye Lian was looking at himself and Lucy curiously with his big eyes open.
Due to the zombie instinct, although Ye Lian is very gentle, she has always kept a distance from Lucy.
She rarely looked at Lucy like that, let alone took the initiative to talk to her.
Even Ling Mo was startled, but what shocked him even more was the question Ye Lian asked.
This little girl, actually understood the conversation just now
Moreover, she actually thinks about this kind of problem...
"Zombie, become human?!"
Lucy's eyes suddenly widened, her heart beating violently.
For a moment, she almost thought she was exposed, and involuntarily touched the machine gun beside her.
But thinking about Ye Lian's fighting ability... She immediately stopped.
"You... why are you asking this..."
Lucy stared at Ye Lian with a complicated expression and asked nervously.
Although she was very suspicious of Ling Mo and his party, her thoughts had not jumped to the point where they directly linked them to zombies.
On the contrary, because of "guilty of being a thief", he has been carefully guarding against being discovered by them.
