Chapter 9: Zombies?(6)
What is the concept of thousands of zombies?
In the world hundreds of thousands of years later, since Viren has been living in the war for many years, the number of thousands is really not much for Viren.
It's just that, compared to now, the concept of thousands is really a little different from the era before Viren.
In Viren's time, there were few races that could fly. Of course, the winged people of the orc clan tribe, as well as some beings whose strength has reached the level of the heaven-defying level, can also fly. But after all, the Winged Humans are just a race of orc clans, and they don't seem to have any other abilities other than flying. And there are many strong people on the continent, but there are very few who can reach the level of defying the sky. Even the later Qi Tianci was only able to jump and glide in the air. Yes, he is already proficient in gliding in the air for hundreds of meters at a time. But it still can't be considered flying.
In the next hundreds of thousands of years, except for the winged creatures such as the Winged Humans of the Orc Clan and the Dragon Demon Miduna, there should be no existence that can really fly. Yes, this also includes the mourning of the apostles. Even if it was her, she just took the volley to the extreme.
But now。。。。。。 "I said, Boss, is this really thousands? There are already thousands of flying things!" At this time, another completely unfamiliar voice came from before, and at this time, Wei Lun knew where Qi Tianci and these unfamiliar voices came from. It turned out that there was a black cuboid hanging between himself and the old driver, and a cylindrical stick was sticking out of one end of this cuboid thing. And Qi Tianci and those unfamiliar voices came from here.
"It's called a walkie-talkie. The meat shield behind him explained as he unbuckled his seat belt. That's right, the seat belt, that's what the old driver told him as soon as he got into the car. He also said that since he got on the bus, he had to wear this belt, otherwise his safety would not be guaranteed. Although Viren was skeptical that a long strap could protect his life, in order not to make them laugh, Viren still followed the old driver's example.
At this time, Qi Tianci's voice came, but it was obviously not for them. "Aren't they just some flying mongrels, fan preparation, meat shield pay attention to the fish that slip through the net. ”
Fan, Viren understands. The fan that Qi Tianci said should be the infantry assault fighting vehicle with a fan-shaped laser device. But why let a human with a meat shield deal with a fish that slipped through the net?
Without further ado, after receiving Qi Tianci's order, Meat Dun stood up from his seat with a smile. It's just that now Viren didn't see what weapons the meat shield carried, so he asked with some concern, "How can you be in charge of this? What if there are still a lot of them?"
"Don't worry!" Meat Shield smiled, "Although my name is Meat Shield, it doesn't mean that I can only carry damage." With that, Flesh Dun picked up a black spear from his back seat that Viren had never seen before, and leaned his head closer to a telescope on top of the spear (telescopes still existed hundreds of thousands of years later), and he was engrossed in the lack of words.
Seeing the prepared meat shield from the mirror, the old driver said to the outside world through the walkie-talkie: "The meat shield is ready, and the fan can be activated." ”
"Roger. The convoy stopped advancing. Sector, ready to attack. ”
At this time, all other vehicles, including Viren's car, stopped moving. At the same time, the other two infantry assault fighting vehicles surrounded the fan in the center on the left and right sides, and the two military jeeps of the old driver and Qi Tianci also stopped in front of the fan. And the last tank tank, known as the Five-Nine Demon Change, was also located behind the fan. Veren didn't expect that this huge and bulky vehicle could keep up with the speed of these light vehicles, which made Viren feel amazed by this vehicle for the first time.
But the rest of the people don't have the leisure to think about such things. As the huge device above the fan began to glow orange-yellow, there was a cheer from the intercom. Hearing these cheering voices, Viren also watched every move of this fan with great interest.
A few seconds later, under the cheers, the light of the fan became more and more intense, although the flying mutant zombies were less than a few hundred meters away from the convoy, but these ancestors of Viren obviously did not know what tactics were. Because while they were getting closer and closer to the convoy, they were also getting farther and farther away from the ordinary mutated zombies on the ground, which numbered five or six thousand. Gradually, there are already thousands of meters of distance. And the distance is getting bigger and bigger.
It seems that this is Qi Tianci's tactic. They waited for their time and prepared to recharge while waiting for the flying mutant zombies to approach. However, this also made Wei Lun see a flaw that neither the old driver, nor the meat shield nor Qi Tianci had not revealed before, that is, this infantry assault combat vehicle called the fan surface needs to be charged like the weapon on the back of the 59 Demon Change. Although it didn't last too long, it also made Viren see it. Either way, hopefully it's not a big deal.
Just as Viren was still thinking about the flaws of this fan, Viren's peripheral vision only saw two fan-shaped beams of light arranged in a "X" and a "one" respectively, rushing towards the thousands of mutated zombies in the sky. In less than two or three seconds, those mutated zombies turned into steam and slowly floated into the sky.
"What's going on?" Viren subconsciously shouted, "What kind of weapon is this? Is this a miracle? Why did so many mutated zombies disappear out of thin air?"
"It's not over yet!" The meat shield behind him had already put a cigarette in his mouth at some point, and said in a deep voice: "There are still dozens of fish that have slipped through the net and rushed towards us, and these dogs don't know what it means to be afraid." ”
Viren was about to speak, but suddenly there were several deafening sounds behind him. Suddenly made Viren feel a ringing in his ears, and he couldn't even hear the voice of the old driver who was close at hand. It took a minute or so for Viren's hearing to return to normal.
"Well, boy, I'll just say that the meat shield has a special ability. Since the old driver didn't have to drive, he put his arm around Viren's shoulder and said, "This guy's physical fitness can only be described as a pervert." Do you know what he's carrying? It's a 15-millimeter anti-materiel sniper rifle, but with such a large caliber, it would have been described as a sniper gun in the past. But this dead pervert can not only play with this evil like a toy, but also make this pervert who can only shoot three shots a minute at most, into a pervert who can shoot ten rounds a minute! Ten rounds, do you understand the concept?"
"Yes, I understand. Viren stared blankly at the more than ten blood flowers floating in the sky not far away, and Mu Ne nodded.
This man is really a pervert. Wei Lun subconsciously looked behind him, and sure enough, the physical fitness of this strong man known as the meat shield was indeed extremely extraordinary. At least it's not much different from Qi Tianci. It's no wonder that this guy called Meat Shield is able to use such a weapon smoothly. If it's your own, don't say you use it, you can't even resist it.
In addition, Viren also made a special estimate of the power of these guns. After three consecutive waves of attacks for three minutes, all the mutated zombies in the sky have completely disappeared. During this time, Viren calculated that the power of the gun was equivalent to the power of the mid-tier fireball that Viren himself fired. In this way, Viren's heart has a bottom, thinking that this world is far less terrifying than hundreds of thousands of years later. Thinking of this, Viren naturally breathed a sigh of relief.
As if to see Viren's laxity, the old driver half-jokingly said: "Don't think these things are easy to deal with, in fact, those flying in the sky are just a bunch of cannon fodder." ”
"Cannon fodder?" Viren was stunned, not knowing how to answer. In Viren's impression, generally speaking, only things that fly in the sky are considered powerful. But I didn't expect that everything in this world would be turned upside down. "Are you saying that they are not as threatening as the slow-moving zombies?"
"Of course. The old driver looked at the zombie community that was still moving slowly and asked, "Why do you think I think the threat of these zombies is greater than that of those mutated zombies in the sky?"
"Could it be that there is a leader-like presence among them?" said Viren, thinking of the mourner, and gave the following answer.
"No, no, no, of course not. The old driver shook his head: "To be honest, these zombies really have a leader, but they shouldn't be here now." Instead, we were sent to the depths of the sea, haha. ”
I see, it seems that any community is dominated by extremely powerful beings. Suddenly, Viren became very interested in the origins of his own people. "Can you tell me a little bit about how these zombies came to be? I didn't know much about these things at the time. ”
The old driver's eyes suddenly became sad. "You must already know the names of these things. Their name is Zombie. But before they became zombies, they had a name exactly like us, called Human. ”
"Yes, I know. Viren nodded slightly. "It is said that they all evolved from human beings. ”
"Evolution, mutation?" Meat Shield, who had already called it a day, asked in a tone of disbelief, "What the hell is that guy telling you? How the fuck can this be called evolution? I think it's degradation!"
The old driver motioned to the angry meat shield to shut up and explained, "You don't care about that guy, but the statement that zombies are human evolution is completely wrong. Because, the reason why there is a zombie thing in the world now is a mutation. ”
"What aberration?" Viren suddenly became intrigued, and it seemed that he was extremely close to understanding the origin of his own people. Although, perhaps, this origin is not so good.
The old driver sighed and said: "This matter is actually very simple, and it also tells us a truth, that is, no matter what, never trust the mongrels on that island country." ”
"Island nation?" it seems, more questions are coming.
"You don't have to worry about that, you just need to know that they're a bunch of bitch bastards. The old driver lightly brushed this aside and continued: "What you want to know, isn't it the origin? The origin of these zombies came from an experiment by a scientist in the island country. ”
Just as the old driver wanted to continue, Qi Tianci suddenly took over and said: "In our era, although this is the first time that the zombie thing has really appeared. But their presence is not low at all. Boy, you know what acting is, right?"
"Acting, I understand. Isn't it just a group of people pretending to be another group of people or some other creature?" Wei Lun replied casually, but did not directly say that it was Qi Tianci himself who told him what acting was.
"Yes, that's it. Qi Tianci gave Viren a thumbs up and continued: "The image of these zombies has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is because of acting and other reasons. But until then, these things had only existed in the unreal. ”
However, there is a group of people who do not believe in evil and believe that this thing is real. Not only that, but they also used all the resources they could gather to develop the virus. It means that even if you don't have it, you have to create it. ”
Sure enough, in the end, the virus was created. But the birth of this virus was extremely accidental. Originally, the virus was studied very early, but it was more than ten years later that the first person was infected. But it was at this time that the virus broke out completely. ”
"The first person to be infected with the virus was the one who studied the virus, and the only relative of the scholar is also his own son. At the time of infection, the child seemed to be a few years old. The scholar knew very well that there was no possibility of turning back into a human after the virus was infected, so in desperation, he not only infected himself, but also allowed all the remaining virus to spread through the air to the entire island nation. The most terrifying thing is that the child has become the most terrifying existence because he is the first zombie infected with the virus. ”
