Chapter 781: Save in Your Own Way
While Qin Gu was secretly improving himself, he was also carefully investigating the spread of living corpses.
After many dissections, Qin Gu found that the brain domain of these living corpses had died, and instead they were replaced by a virus that transmitted signals with some kind of special energy wave.
So this explains why living corpses can communicate with each other, and they can all sound the same howl, but they can mean different things.
Their bodies still have a metabolism that can even last forever if they don't damage their digestive system.
This is the living corpse.
However, because their brain domain has been replaced by that strange virus, which needs energy to exist, and the virus needs energy to dominate the body's actions, they are left with only the instinct to eat and be bloodthirsty.
Viruses are especially sensitive to living creatures that truly have vital powers, so living corpses will instinctively attack when they see a living person approaching.
Unless there is a higher level of command to control the virus, such as a few subordinates of the Black Iron Armor Leader that Qin Gu met before, under his control, those living corpses are very regular, and he will start to act according to the instinct of the virus as soon as he dies.
The virus is found in every part of the living corpse and can be transmitted to any living being, but whether it completely occupies and controls the opponent's brain domain, is controlled by the opponent, or exists in the same brain domain at the same time... It depends on the strength of the soul and mental strength of the infected person.
The Chosen One they talked about before is actually choosing those who can maintain a certain level of consciousness under the invasion of this virus, and even those who can control this virus in turn.
And the virus contains a powerful mysterious energy, which is used for its own use, and becomes a very powerful existence.
This is the true meaning of "God's chosen."
As for those ordinary people who have not passed the "Divine Selection", they are real walking corpses under the control of the virus, with metabolism, but only interested in things with life power, such as living creatures.
So only the instincts of eating and bloodlust remain.
Without external stimuli and without eating, the living corpse will basically rot for a month at most, and if the weather is cold and dry, it may be able to be stored for a longer time.
During this time, they are still able to move, because they have brute strength and are not afraid of pain, so they still have strong combat effectiveness compared to ordinary people.
However, as the body loses water, it will gradually stiffen until it completely decays and becomes a dried corpse.
As long as they are infected by the virus, there will be a scene in the body, and they will cover their whole body with black felt cloth or armor, which is a defense and a cover-up.
- Although Qingu has figured out the situation of this hour, he has not yet found a way to solve it.
Her Level II medical skills have no effect on this virus, as the virus is not designed to destroy the body, but rather belongs to a higher level of neural control.
Qin Gu was thinking, how can he conquer this world?
When she entered the hourly space, the entire bubble took on a crimson color.
The vast majority of people in the region have been cleaned up by the virus, do you want to kill all these living corpses?
Wouldn't this hourly space become a dead domain?!
As for the holy woman Ansu, Qin Gu also got some news about her one after another.
It is said that the powerful Chosen One is already a demigod, and it is his strong willpower that in turn controls the virus, and absorbs the strange energy in it for his own use.
But along the way, there are still many survivors who try to recapture the saint and send her to the altar.
But without exception, these people end up either becoming living corpses or becoming food for living corpses, and all of them die.
This is not something that Qin Gu can control, in fact, this result is probably the least deadly.
Qin Gu has completely stopped pinning his hopes on the matter of sacrificing the saintess, and still uses his own efforts and his own means to clean up the filth of this world little by little.
She tried to clean up the infected areas as much as she could: what if there were survivors in the vicinity?
On the other side, there is a frenzied collection of materials and cultivation - strength is king!
In fact, there is nothing to collect materials, because the balance of this hour and space has been broken by the virus, the climate is abnormal, and people are already in a situation of not having enough to eat.
What Qingu did was to make sure that his backpack was stuffed with dry food at all times, and then throw the remaining grains, fruits and vegetable seeds that were still in a certain place, on these lonely lands.
Rather than letting them rot in the dark, it's better to have a chance to survive outside.
From village to village, all you can see is barren land, living corpses that emerge day and night, either rotting or rotting.
Qiangu is like a scavenger, a wandering scavenger.
Use fire to cleanse the air of the hour.
It turns out that no matter how carefully calculated, there will still be survivors.
Qingu walked through dozens of villages and met one or two hundred people.
After such a terrible calamity, some have become resilient as a result, while others have broken down and gone mad......
After clearing away the living corpses and hidden threats, Qiangu also helped them find a place to live and distributed the surplus food they had collected to them...... Strength and self-help are the only rules for surviving in this apocalyptic world.
Qingu didn't know how big this world really was, because it didn't exist in the memory of the original owner.
Qin Gu didn't know who caused such an end times, so he must have been very powerful.
But no matter how difficult it was, Qin Gu was determined to move forward step by step.
It is true that she does not have the ability to directly touch the core of the end times, but she can now use her greatest strength to sweep away the darkness little by little and help those in need.
No matter what the road ahead is, Qin Gu's heart is still as firm as ever!
...... The news of the outcasts being purged came back to the royal city from all over the country.
Above the sky, which was only a few tens of kilometers away from Taluxing, there was a huge butterfly-shaped flying machine suspended.
In the flying machine, in the huge circular council hall, there were a circle of black-robed people.
And above them, hundreds of golden thrones were scattered, and on each seat sat a man shrouded in a wide black cloak.
The meeting was a report on the progress of the Divine Election in their respective jurisdictions and the administration of the Central Colonial Zone.
According to the data, the progress of the Divine Chosen is basically completed, and even if there are fish that slip through the net, they will be annihilated when the next round of chaos comes.
And the first batch of the Chosen One has been sent to the front line, and the effect is not bad.
Just as the meeting was about to end, a black-robed man sitting on the periphery of the lowest floor suddenly raised his hand.
The black-robed head in the center signaled that he could speak.
