Transmigrated as the Domesticated Rabbit of the Sick and Frail Villain in the Apocalypse

Chapter 45: Beast Tide - Atavism and Evolution

Views:

Inside the villa, Zhao Qiyang, wearing a camouflage assault suit, stood in the open space of the yard and jumped back and forth.

This is a camouflage assault suit issued by the military base, and it is a new type of material specially developed by the scientific research institute.

It is said that after this world environmental change, the surviving scientists and explorers have discovered some new energy sources and metals from all over the world under continuous research.

After investing in research and development, the resulting clothes are very suitable for evolutionary people to wear.

Clothing made of this material generally has a similar feel to silk and will not deform, but once it is swelled and torn, it will show extremely strong toughness.

After investing in research and development experiments, scientific research institutes have successively tested evolutionary people with different skin types and different directions. After the evolutionary ability is exerted, it will not be directly smashed like ordinary clothes, but will be stretched into a thin and tight black twilight. affixed to the skin of the evolutionary man.

Sharp blades and strong blasting can still penetrate clothes, but they greatly facilitate the evolutionary people's actions, so that they will not have the ability to evolve after the clothes are not covered.

After the successful research and development of the scientific research institute, everyone in the team who entered the establishment under the name is equipped with a set, and the Xuyang team naturally also has it.

The rest were put into the circulation market of the base, and Niu Feiyuan's subordinates and evolutionary people who were not organized would have to spend a high amount of points to buy them.

After Zhao Qiyang got it, he tried it in the backyard of the villa. He slowly swelled from a thin teenager to a reptile with short limbs and a thick tail.

He turned into a lizard with a length of more than two meters. The clothes that had always been stretched to pieces were only stretched by the swollen skin this time. The camouflage pattern on the clothes gradually faded, revealing black, covering all the green skin on the lizard. , only the unevenness under the thin black silk-like cloth can be seen.

The lizard moved its body and looked very funny. It moved its tail, and its limbs and claws jumped forward a few steps. After running around the yard for several times, it changed back to its human form.

At the same time, the storm suit that was stretched out on its body also changed back to its original shape.

"How's it going?" Zhao Sihui stood by the door frame, hugging Yin Yiliu.

She is an evolutionary person with hair mutation. When she uses her abilities, the hidden hairs in her body are instantly hardened, like a hedgehog.

However, this dress is not resistant to puncture, and she has no relationship with her. At this time, it is quite interesting to see her brother wrapped into a slippery big black guy.

Zhao Qiyang stood up and jumped twice and stretched his arms.

"Fortunately, it feels slippery and weird. It feels like a layer of frozen gel after being stretched."

He said while tugging at his wrinkled sleeves.

"It's pretty good though."

Zhao Sihui smiled and said, "That's right, you don't have to run naked in the future."

The siblings stumbled over their mouths, and Yin Yiliu was giggling and watching, and suddenly felt a little lonely.

She looked back at the empty living room, and the man who had been standing silently behind her had disappeared, feeling a little lost for a while.

Zhao Sihui saw her turning back, touched the ball on the little girl's head, and squatted down to look at her cute little face, "What's the matter? Miss Jin Yang?"

Yin Yiliu smiled shyly, and couldn't help but nodded.

She has two round chirps on her head, which is the new hairstyle that Jin Yang gave her today. The soft flaxen hair is a touch of golden pink, and there are a bunch of long white ears on her head, which looks very cute. .

From the beginning, even the ponytail was not well tied, and now it is possible to weave some complex patterns. Jin Yang's hair braiding skills are constantly improving.

Before leaving this morning, Jin Yang combed his hair and explained a few words before going out.

Since they shook hands with Li Zhenjiang in harmony, the Xuyang Squad is nominally a team of the military base.

And Jin Yang gradually began to have a certain right to speak in the Z city base, and Li Zhenjiang would send messages from time to time to ask him to go to the military base to discuss some things.

This is the first time Yin Yiliu has separated from Jin Yang since she traveled to this world.

She stayed with Jin Thigh all the way, but Junji is not a place where anyone can go in and out at will. Her current identity is a little girl who has been alienated by rabbits.

Therefore, after Jin Yang was looked at with scrutiny again, she took the initiative to propose to stay at home.

Yin Yiliu grabbed the front of her clothes, raised her head and looked at Jin Yang.

Hearing what the little girl said, Jin Yang's face sank directly, he squatted down with pursed lips, and looked at Yin Yiliu.

He was wearing a camouflage-style assault uniform, showing a righteousness, and his already handsome and tough eyebrows made people unable to look away.

"You don't like it here?"

Yin Yiliu shook her head, and said in a milky voice, "Actually no, I just think I don't want to go to the military base, and I have nothing to do there..."

Li Zhenjiang is willing to tell Jin Yang some secret information because he attaches great importance to Jin Yang, but this does not mean that he is willing to leak these things to Yin Yiliu as a child.

Considering these things, Yin Yiliu offered not to go, she didn't want to be the one who dragged down the golden thigh, and chose to stay at home with the Zhao siblings.

Jin Yang was very reluctant. Hearing that the little guy was about to leave his line of sight, he subconsciously wanted to veto it; but he finally held back and chose to respect Yin Yiliu and let Zhao Sihui take good care of the little guy.

Two days before Jin Yang left, Yin Yiliu was at home with the black wolf cubs, bathed and combed the big black wolf, and found the joy of furry; in the afternoon, he followed Zhao Sihui around the streets of the base, using low prices. Buy many interesting little things in exchange for grain, oil and food.

She didn't feel fresh and didn't feel lonely, but after a few days, she felt unwell.

When Jin Yang was there, even if one person and one rabbit played the finger-catching game, both of them would enjoy it and not feel bored; but when Jin Yang was away, even if the people around him were laughing, Yin Yiliu still felt empty in his heart.

The little girl sighed with her hands behind her back. Holding the two small balls on her forehead, she walked around in the living room. From time to time, she calculated the time to look outside the door, thinking about what the golden thighs were doing now.

Jin Yang, who was remembered by Yin Yiliu, was standing at the door of Junji's conference room at this time, thinking about the little girl at home.

Every morning when he left, he would be irritable for a long time, and there was no trace of Yin Yiliu around him, as if the vacancy that had been filled was dug up again.

He frowned and pushed open the door, only to find that there were several men in the conference room besides Li Zhenjiang.

Sitting on Li Zhenjiang's lower left hand is Wu Xianling. The squinting man smiled when he saw him. Li Zhenjiang's lower right hand was empty. A few army generals in military uniforms and a few evolutionary people were lined up in order. Captain of the squad.

The most powerful and powerful figures in the entire military base are here.

Sitting across the table was a young man in a white coat, the assistant of Old Bai, who came to this seminar today instead of Bai Qiguang.

Among all the people present, there was someone familiar to Jin Yang, Liu Weihong, the captain of the Red Eagle Squad, and the two nodded their heads.

Seeing the arrival of his most important junior, Li Zhenjiang had a smile on his face and waved at Jin Yang.

"Sit here."

Jin Yang walked to the vacant seat in the lower right hand and sat down, and all of the people present suddenly froze in their hearts.

This is the first time they have met with this famous person who is rumored all over the sky. While sighing at Jin Yang's youth, they are vigilant.

Although I had long heard that General Li valued this newcomer, I did not expect that the captain of the Xuyang Squad would be so proud that he could be on an equal footing with Wu Xianling.

Who is Wu Xianling

Following General Li's life-and-death subordinates, he followed from City B to City Z. It can be said that he is the person with the greatest voice around Li Zhenjiang.

Everyone's eyes turned and turned on Wu Xianling and Jin Yang, hoping to see the discordant side of the two young people, but one was cold and the other was smiling, and it didn't look like they were in contact.

After Jin Yang sat down, Li Zhenjiang slowly crossed his palms and pressed his elbows against the table: "Now that everyone is here, I want to announce one thing, the latest news from above, in the next time everyone will busy."

After Li Zhenjiang finished speaking, Wu Xianling stood up from his hand and sent the documents stacked beside him to the hands of the people present one by one.

After getting the document, everyone opened it and their expressions changed. For a while, they had different thoughts and opinions, and there were whispers in the entire conference hall.

The document organizes the large and small disasters that occurred in various provinces during the period after the end of the world, which was organized by City B and spread to the whole country.

In addition to super bases like Z City, several small post-apocalyptic bases have been breached by mutant animals and plants. It is said that the sea of blood and stumps inside is like hell, which is the carnival of human nightmare animals.

That is to say, the evolution of animals and plants is constantly strengthening, and the threat to human beings is increasing, and it has reached the moment of threatening survival.

Jin Yang noticed that "Flying Dragon Base" was among the red dots circled on the document.

"In the past six months, sixteen small cities such as Longcheng and Shicheng have been completely destroyed. Thirteen of them were destroyed by large beast tides, and three were destroyed by giant mutant plants."

Beast tide

This is the first time many people have heard of this term, and the leaders of several evolutionary teams here suddenly changed their faces, and they knew what it meant just by hearing the name.

"The mutant beasts will gather together to destroy the city? How is this possible!"

"If that's the case, isn't our base in danger?"

"… "

Li Zhenjiang tapped on the table with the bones of his fingers, signaling everyone to calm down. When his face was tense, there was an invisible pressure in the entire conference hall.

"I believe that everyone has heard the seriousness of the situation. The emergence of the beast tide means that the mutant beasts that we originally had to defeat one by one have now become a cohesive force, with a sense of teamwork."

This is undoubtedly worse for humans who are already in a difficult situation.

Unlike the beasts that all mutated and evolved, human beings have changed from the top of the food chain to the bottom in this apocalypse. Not everyone is evolutionary, and 80% are still powerless. , Ordinary people who can hardly even solve the problem of food and clothing.

Once these people leave the reserve base, they will end up being used as food and nourishment by the mutant animals and plants outside.

And although the remaining 20% have the ability to evolve, in the final analysis, the strength of an evolutionary person cannot match a mutant beast. They need to spend too much energy to deal with a mutant beast, not to mention the combination of these beasts. The beast wave that got up and started.

This is an almost unsolvable problem.

Under the ultimate disadvantage, how can human beings reverse the crisis of being killed and destroyed.

Seeing the heavy expressions on everyone's faces, Li Zhenjiang breathed a sigh of relief.

"But you don't have to worry, the defense power of the Z city base ranks first in the whole country. If the critical moment of human life and death is not reached, the Z city will not be broken."

Li Zhenjiang's voice was very deep, and he immediately calmed the restless people. What he said made sense. If city Z is also broken, city B is not far away.

The demise of mankind is only in the day and night.

"According to the accurate investigation, in every city attacked by the beast tide, there is at least one level-5 mutant beast, which is the so-called beast with enlightened intelligence."

Hearing this, some evolutionary people looked in the direction of Jin Yang with obscure eyes, but they knew that the only five-level mutant beast captured by the Z city base was the result of the Xuyang team.

Jin Yang's expression did not change, and he didn't seem to be moved by these gazes.

Li Zhenjiang finished his words and motioned the assistant who had been sitting at the last research institute to get up and explain their research results to the evolutionary people present.

The white coat pushed his glasses, and his heart trembled.

You must know that all the people in power in the base are sitting here. No matter in terms of strength or power, they are top-notch existences. He is an ordinary academician, and he feels a lot of pressure when facing these big bosses.

When he stood up, he glanced at Jin Yang, who was sitting at the lower right hand of General Li, and said in a trembling voice:

"Because the Xuyang team successfully killed a 5th-level mutant beast, after the research of Bai Lao and us these days, the scientific research institute has come up with a relatively reliable news that these animals with intelligence are evolving."

The evolutionary man sitting beside him frowned, "What nonsense are you talking about? Could it be that they are degenerate if they don't evolve?"

The white coat was frightened, and he didn't dare to speak. Li Zhenjiang, who was still sitting in the main seat, glared fiercely at the violent evolutionary man who suddenly spoke, and signaled the white coat to continue, and then he glanced at the person beside him. The man said:

"Actually... this captain is right. These mutated animals and plants below the fifth level are not evolving, but degenerating."

"The scientific research institute in City B calls it: atavistic evolution."

These twists and turns of scientific terminology, some of the old and rough here do not understand, and they are confused by evolution and degeneration.

"Exploring the evolution and development of the earth from a scientific point of view, we can divide the origin of living things."

"The Archean crustal movement, the formation of the Sinian platform, and the Cambrian age as the critical point, the origin of biology and the change of everything."

"The earth that entered the Paleozoic went through the Devonian, Carboniferous and Permian periods. Fish, amphibians, and sea dragons were born here. The creatures at this time were generally characterized by large size and strong attack power, which required hundreds of millions of The ancient Earth struggled to survive years ago."

"After the end of the Paleozoic era, gymnosperms and reptiles in the Mesozoic era continued to rise, and the Jurassic period after the Triassic quickly gave birth to the growth and development of dinosaurs. This group of former overlords of the earth has a long history of development than today's human beings. There have always been Scientists speculate that dinosaurs have occupied the earth's hegemony for so long, and they may have developed their own civilization and language long ago. They are wise and have their own empire. Unfortunately, it was destroyed later, and it was like a falling meteor after a long river... "

The more the white coat spoke, the faster he spoke, and he couldn't help showing his reminiscence of that era. Hearing the evolutionary people in the clouds and mists, they all showed impatience.

"Can you tell the point!"

The white coat's voice was hoarse, and he was still full of passion just now, but he suddenly silenced, he coughed, and his face showed a crazy and excited look.

"Through analysis, we know that the earth is undergoing reverse regression, and so are animals and plants. Their body size and attack characteristics are moving closer to those of animals and plants in ancient times. This is not evolution, but degeneration. This is the general trend."

"But there are some very small numbers of animals that are really evolving, the so-called fifth-level animals. The sudden changes in the earth made them skip the long evolution and directly possess complex nerves and the ability to think. and wisdom, they are special."

The white coat looked at Jin Yang and continued:

"After anatomical research, we found that the evolution of the mutant monkey was unusually fast, and the origin of humans was from the ape family, and during the dissection, we found that the evolution of the mutant monkey's limbs and some skeletal muscles was moving towards humans. Move closer. If it continues to evolve over time, a new species may emerge, a new 'human'."

"In the final analysis, human beings are the kings of evolution, but so are these fifth-level mutant beasts of the rising army. We are born with contradictions. We guess that this may be the biggest reason why fifth-level mutant beasts lead ordinary beasts to attack the human base. "

After the white coat finished speaking, everyone present was silent for a long time, seemed to be thinking, and seemed to be stunned by these words.

They have long thought about why the doomsday will come, and why animals and plants mutate, while human evolution is extremely difficult.

But when they really heard this speculation, they were thinking again, can human beings win in this subversion of species.

Will they be the ultimate winners

No one knows about these issues, and no one dares to pat their chests and say that the future is bright and promising.

But they don't want to die, they don't want to die, and it has nothing to do with the survival of mankind. Even if it is selfish, no one wants to die.

They are struggling to live in the last days.

Seeing the dead silence in the conference room, Li Zhenjiang patted the table heavily.

"What are you doing looking like a dead man? The city hasn't been destroyed, and the human race hasn't gone extinct. It's just a bunch of beasts. I've never been afraid of cannons, so what the hell!"

His voice suddenly shocked the hearts of the people present, and they all looked in the direction of the main seat.

"Since we know that the beast tide is the fifth-level mutant beast, we will kill the fifth-level beast. One person is not enough for a city, and that group of beasts can't make missile cannons with their bare hands."

Hearing Li Zhenjiang's witty words, the room suddenly burst into laughter, and the despair and confusion just now disappeared quietly.

Jin Yang watched and listened quietly, analyzing calmly in his mind. It is undoubtedly lucky to have a leader like Li Zhenjiang in a team. He has excellent leadership and a fearless heart.

He himself is not afraid, let alone despair, but he is able to tell everyone with a decisive righteousness that he will not break the city here.

"Now that everyone understands the situation, I'll just say it straight."

Li Zhenjiang lit a cigarette and put it between his fingertips to let it burn quietly. He raised his hand and took a breath, highlighting the smoke and continuing: "See the red dots circled in the documents in your hands, these bases are now on the way. In the predicament that the city is about to be destroyed, there are small animal tides and giant mutant plants."

Jin Yang looked at the document in his hand, except for the Feilong base, there are four other circles, a total of five cities, which are in danger.

"The two places on the edge are too far from City Z, and it has nothing to do with us. When we go to support, the corpses will stink."

There were bursts of laughter in the house.

"But for the other three, our Z city base needs volunteers, and there are a lot of people. In addition to our people, Niu Feiyuan's people will also go there. It is inevitable to meet. Of course, there are evolutionary people from other bases."

The captain of an evolutionary team sitting below frowned and said, "General Li, the people from the Niu family have always been at odds with us. If we get together, wouldn't we break the head."

Li Zhenjiang waved his hand, "This is the order from above. Niu Feiyu knows what to do and will make them restrain. Our purpose this time is not to fight them, but to save the lives of these base people."

Hearing this, everyone here also understood that since Li Zhenjiang called them over, he meant to send them out to support.

These evolutionary captains have pondered, it is not that they are timid, once they leave the base after the apocalypse, life is in danger everywhere, which really needs to be considered carefully.

But this time it was a direct order from the central government, not to mention that if they backed off, the next one to be attacked by the beast horde might be their base.

After thinking about it again and again, everyone still responded.

Li Zhenjiang nodded with satisfaction, and when the meeting ended, he boosted everyone's morale, and let the other evolutionary captains go back first, leaving only Jin Yang and Wu Xianling.

After everyone was gone, Li Zhenjiang looked tired and couldn't help pinching his eyebrows with his fingertips.

How could he not be worried, but he couldn't show it. Instead, he had to show a high degree of excitement and self-confidence, so that he could infect the people under him.

If he showed his timidity first, it would definitely cause panic among his subordinates.

He looked at the two people behind him and waved to them to sit down.

"What do you think about today's events?"

Jin Yang had no idea. Since he decided to join the base and enjoy the protection of the base, his contribution was natural, and he had nothing to say; and Wu Xianling was Li Zhenjiang's die-hard subordinate, so naturally he meant where to fight.

Seeing that there was no difference between the two, Li Zhenjiang was a little relieved, and after a few more words, he waved his hand to signal them to leave.

"Forget it, my old man won't keep you, go back and prepare."

Soon, another tough battle will be fought.
