Three hundred and ninety-one years of the Human Empire, April.
The "Adam Second Generation Incident" broke out. A murderer boy of unknown origin broke through the shame-death mechanism, broke into the core research institute, killed the president Milivina, and died with the patron saint Michael Qi, destroying the mechanical city Veolia. .
So the virus broke out.
Veolia, the pride of the Ishtar people, turned into a dead city, infecting tens of millions of people in the city. It is known as the biggest and worst desperate event of mankind in history.
The virus only has an effect on the C++ language, and it destroys the defense mechanism of the Ishtar people, and other sea tribes and monsters are not implicated.
As for the adult Ishtar people, it is difficult to change the C++ language. Even if they get permission, it is deeply rooted in their brains and requires complicated brain surgery, which is simply impossible to implement in the zombie tide.
Empire three hundred and ninety-one years, May.
Thirteen cities on the edge of Veolia fell quickly, and Caroline could no longer turn the tide. She gathered a small number of Ishtar elite scientists to leave, migrated to Outland, and started the "Human Ark Project".
"We'll still be back."
They escaped from their homes again just like they escaped from the ancient lava field.
But most of the Ishtar people were forced to stay in the city and couldn't evacuate. They didn't have any complaints, and they waited for Ms. Caroline to lead the human elite to start research, find a way to crack the virus, and come back to save them.
They believed in their gods, just as they believed in Levi's back then.
The surviving Ishtar people began to close the communication of spiritual consciousness to prevent the spread of viruses through the connection of consciousness, and restored the language transmission in ancient times, and shut down the information network satellites to prevent the virus from spreading through network channels.
Without the Internet and using language to communicate, human beings have returned to the era of primitive society!
On the streets, many walking dead wandered around. Survivors in the city lingered in basements, shops, and neighborhoods, risking their lives, driving mechanical armor and mechanical motorcycles, looking for food outside.
The era of wasteland machines has arrived.
...
In a dilapidated mechanical city in the south.
A young wizard wearing a black wizard robe, and a burly man without a shirt, exposing perfectly proportioned muscles like exquisite sculptures, wearing white pearl earrings and a necklace of heart of the ocean, strode forward.
On the street, dilapidated and old, there are all kinds of garbage and blood everywhere, and there are a group of brain-dead Ishtar people wandering around. The eyes of these living corpses are pale and lifeless, but they are still handsome, and they are dressed in rags. Beautiful figure.
Suddenly, they turned their heads, their eyes burst into scarlet, mad like wild animals.
Crash!
"Poor life, after just one month's change, it has become a beast without wisdom." Hai Landong flashed a trace of pity, and stretched out his hand, and an isolation protective cover appeared instantly.
All the zombies wandering on the street suddenly lost their purpose and breath, and wandered around.
Xu Zhi just looked at this scene curiously. It seemed to be no different from those zombie movies in the movie. It was said to be a virus, and it was indeed a virus, but it was a computer virus in the true sense.
He suddenly felt that the sand table world in front of him was somewhat similar to the wasteland sci-fi style, such as the well-known masterpieces "Borderland" and "Radiation".
Xu Zhi entered a shop, sorted out an alchemy table, and brushed the table with his hand, and bottles and jars appeared in front of him. He took a drop of black blood from zombies that had dried up on the ground, and shook the reagent.
Hai Landong looked solemn, staring at Xu Zhi's ring with a trace of disbelief, "This is space storage, super ancient civilization..."
In this world, the people of Ishtar rely on technology and have not yet developed to the level of "manufacturing space". The space technology on the scientific side may be later, or they have not developed specifically in this area.
After a while, Xu Zhi became a little surprised. Looking at the test results of the reagents,
"Brain dead... It seems like some fourth-order and fifth-order monsters without self-intelligence. Of course, there are more advanced ones that haven't completely destroyed the brain. Although they still have no wisdom, they are written in the spells of memory, Like running and jumping, it has become a memory instinct, and it still remains.”
Xu Zhi looked at some special zombies. Among them was a fourth-level strong man zombie, a special kind, with fast movements and wind spells. It was a very special existence.
He stretched out his palm and squeezed it in the air.
Boom!
The zombie's head exploded, and a brain nucleus with white mucus flew out and fell into the palm of the hand.
Continue to study, after a full half a day, the zombies in the street outside alternate, walking continuously, like a fast-forwarding projector, Hai Landong silently guards the side, his eyes are extremely curious, that is curiosity about the unknown.
Xu Zhi ignored him, and suddenly let out a breath, realizing the seriousness of the problem, "The virus is already terrible. Three generations of viruses have appeared, and they are still spreading greatly."
"Three generations? Virus?" Hai Landong was puzzled.
Xu Zhi said: "Through the calculation of the human brain, it is mutating crazily and turning into a mutant Trojan horse virus. This is also the main reason for the massive infection of humans. Countless cities have fallen and turned into walking dead zombie areas."
"You...are amazing." Hai Landong breathed out, "There will be an analysis soon."
Xu Zhi's face was dull.
In terms of combat power, I am far inferior to this top emperor who can slaughter Finbar. I am only at the sixth level in the final analysis. Even this mass extinction can push him to be the quasi-emperor, but he is still a traditional wizard. The library of the world, after decades of penance and communication with Medusa for so long, has already developed the concept of wizards.
Possessing the thinking and knowledge of a wizard, coupled with the wisdom of the civilization in front of him, the brain of a supercomputer is simply a perfect superposition. For example, it is equivalent to a wizard with a brain chip.
"The virus is evolving, and Caroline can't control the trend of destruction. It's like a variant of a Trojan virus and cannot be contained."
Xu Zhi continued to walk.
He collected the gene templates of some special zombies for research, but he was curious about their principles. After all, even if the brain is digitized, it still has a very complicated structure, and some parts are even incomprehensible.
Hai Landong followed behind, becoming more and more curious.
Xu Zhi kept sorting out the conclusions, "After these days, I discovered something terrible."
Hai Landong's eyes widened completely.
Xu Zhi said: "I said before that the restricted area of life is a terrifying thing. The genetic lock is opened... This is how it is in front of you. The virus is evolving, which is equivalent to a program that is constantly evolving... Does it One day, your own wisdom will be born?"
"You mean... this virus program is like the evolution of life, heading towards the unknown?" Hai Landong was shocked, and quickly reacted, "Yes, we have been imprisoning this aspect before, preventing the 'program' from being autonomous Evolving, while the present... is heading into unknown territory."
"The empty body of the Ishdar people is just an opportunity... Will it be replaced by another new race that is born with wisdom? Do you think it is possible?"
"have no idea."
Xu Zhi just replied with a calm face, and he and Hai Landong continued on their way.
Whether it is a brand new era, whether the Ishdar people are extinct, is uncertain.
And even in a new era, the group of survivors led by Caroline can still carry on the continuation of the race, but may be replaced as the hegemony, who knows in the future
The future is full of possibilities.
"Perhaps, it is a kind of alternative Genesis?"
He walked through ruined sci-fi cities, broken shops, streets, public facilities, and fences, all of which were walking corpses. He stopped occasionally and took out the test bench on the spot to conduct various experiments to test the potential of a certain zombie.
"The birth of a new life?" Hai Landong looked at the possibility of the scene in front of him.
Suddenly his mind went blank.
He recalled the scene he saw from the eyes of the monster Finbar. If Caroline saw the origin of human beings, then he undoubtedly saw the origin of his own monster... He suddenly had an incredible thought in his heart, Look at this young man in a wizard robe.
Could it be that the monsters and humans back then were also this mysterious ancient god, roaming the earth, using some unknown technology to observe, guide, and collect data just like today...
In fact, he has come close to the truth to some extent.
They walked all the way, crossing the ruins of the city of Ishdar, which was once at its peak of civilization, when suddenly a voice came from a distant window, "Help!"
Xu Zhi looked up and saw a survivor girl curled up in the toilet window on the third floor of a tall building, shaking her arms and yelling with her mouth. She had been hungry for an unknown amount of time and was extremely emaciated.
Xu Zhi stretched out his hand, broke through the window wall, and brought her in front of him.
The surrounding zombies roared a few times, but after being isolated by Hailandong's mental shield, they fell silent.
Xu Zhi handed over water and bread.
"Thank you, thank you two adults!" She was overwhelmed with surprise.
"What happened?" Hai Landong asked.
The girl said: "The doomsday is here. The neighbors in the entire Yujin community communicated with spiritual thoughts, and many of them were infected... Now everyone has shielded themselves and can only communicate with words. A week ago, my parents Went to the supermarket outside and it turned out... ”
She looked almost crying.
Xu Zhi was dumbfounded.
As soon as she opened her mouth, she showed it all, without any defensiveness, she seemed a little innocent, but this is common sense.
The biggest difference between this doomsday world and other doomsday worlds is that there is no intrigue here, no sinister manifestation of human nature, and they are still constrained by shame, and they can help each other and endure hardships together.
This also made them a lot more comfortable, not going extinct so quickly.
"We believe that the rescue team will come, and the country will quell this turmoil and restore the glory of our Ishdar people." The girl is extremely firm, and every Ishdar person seems to believe in this.
Xu Zhi seemed to see a small wave of all living beings in the era, and thought for a while, "Did anything special happen?"
The girl directly opened her mouth to exchange information, "A surviving convoy passed by before and told me that several cities in the south near the mechanical city Veolia are said to have turned into Jedi, and terrifying monsters came out. It is said that those who did not have time to evacuate have all died. died."
"Dead?" Hai Landong was startled, looking deep into the city.
The girl replied: "It is said that a special virus mutated infected body appeared, and there was a phenomenon of returning to the ancestors. It was like the legendary murderer, covered in mud, shedding cell fluid, with a long and narrow tongue, a tail, and a part of monkey shape. It was extremely powerful and was survived. Those who call it... lickers."
