Chapter 16: The Corpse Guard
"Are you talking about jewelry that people liked to wear in their heyday?" Liu Fugui had to carefully reconfirm it, because this request was too strange, although some people had given themselves benefits before, but what they wanted was nothing more than a beautiful woman/handsome guy, a well-located neighborhood or simply to have a good relationship with themselves.
It's the first time he's met this strange request, he really doesn't understand the world of rich people, rich is willful!
"That's right, that's what I'm talking about, the younger brother usually likes to collect these things, the rarer and more precious the better, of course, I can't let Brother Liu work in vain, I'm willing to exchange some food, how to change it but it depends on Brother Liu's arrangement, the younger brother will definitely do it!"
Zhang Yuntian's answer was very bold, in the eyes of others, this boldness was a bit too much, but he himself had another thought: Liu Fugui is a tax collector, so he naturally has to go all over the fifth district to collect taxes, and who dares not to buy his account in the entire fifth district? If there is jewelry, it is definitely a good selection and handing it in, so that Zhang Yuntian can collect the precious jewelry in this area without much effort, and the result is half the effort!
As for the promised food, the people here treat them as treasures, and in the Overworld, they are nothing more than a few dozen dollars of gadgets, nothing more than a drop in the bucket!
Liu Fugui nodded, "Okay, since the elder brother has spoken, Brother Liu will definitely make this matter clear for you, but"
He hesitated for a moment, feeling that he was too advantageous, although this Zhang Yuntian did not understand the market, but there was no guarantee that there was no one around him who understood the market, one day in the future he was reminded by others, and then felt that he had suffered a big loss, so this is not a good intention to do bad things?
Thinking of this, Liu Fugui added, "Brother, apart from these things, do you have anything else you want?" As much as you can speak, we don't have to be polite between brothers! ”
Gu Hongbo was afraid that Zhang Yuntian would say something stupid again, so he hurriedly coughed a few times, and glanced at the pistol on the guard's waist, meaning to ask Zhang Yuntian for some weapons and ammunition, just with his little hammer, there is no problem with the zombies alone, once surrounded, he will definitely die.
Zhang Yuntian would be wrong, he knew that Gu Hongbo asked him to ask for something "practical", so he followed the latter's eyes, but happened to see the guard beside Liu Fugui who had a big waist and a round waist and unparalleled strange strength, he nodded secretly in his heart, he didn't expect Gu Hongbo to really have vision, with such a guard, it is more real than anything else.
"Little brother has a reluctant request, I don't know how the guards around Brother Liu were trained, if there is any surplus, I wonder if you can sell me a few?"
Liu Fugui smiled and said in his heart: That's the point.
"It seems that my brother is interested in the corpse guards around me!"
When Gu Hongbo heard the word corpse guard, he sighed, and he had a sudden sense of realization, no wonder this guard was so strong, it turned out to be a corpse guard!
"Corpse guards?" It was the first time Zhang Yuntian had heard of this term, and he couldn't help but look at Gu Hongbo with an inquiring face.
The latter replied: "The corpse guards are the ultimate weapon developed by our eternal regime against zombies, they are not only immune to the G virus, but also have both strength and agility, and most importantly, they have no emotions and six desires, and they are absolutely obedient to their masters!" ”
"Immunity to G virus?!" Hearing this, Zhang Yuntian was extremely shocked in his heart, "So, they have the key to developing a vaccine?" If all of humanity is immune to the virus, won't defeating zombies be just around the corner? ”
Humans can reproduce, but zombies cannot, so as long as humans can hold their positions safely, after a few decades, the number of humans will increase several times, while zombies can only become fewer and fewer, and the final victory or defeat is naturally self-evident.
Gu Hongbo sighed, "On the contrary, it was because we developed the vaccine first, and then the corpse guard appeared!" ”
"Ah??? What does that mean? Zhang Yuntian was confused.
"As early as the outbreak of the G virus, we started the development of the vaccine, and it was not until three years ago that we found the key genetic sequence to crack the G virus in the fourth district, and thus produced the first generation of the G virus vaccine!" Gu Hongbo began to explain patiently, at that time he was still the developer's personal guard, so he knew the whole process well.
"After the first generation of vaccines was tested on animals, human trials began, and although the first 20 volunteers all showed excellent resistance to the G virus, it didn't take long for all of them to develop genetic mutations and become strangely shaped monsters! The guy with the best luck, just a few more arms" Gu Hongbo seemed to recall the terrifying scene in the room at the beginning, and couldn't help but shiver, and after a while, he continued:
"Later, after several improvements, the second generation and the third generation of vaccines appeared, but the effect was also very unsatisfactory, until the current universal fourth-generation vaccine, this generation of vaccines is relatively stable, and the subjects did not have a rejection reaction, the only side effect is like what I just said, although they are still alive, but they have become half-human and half-zombie things!"
"What's the deal with that immense power? No matter how you look at it, that's not the power that normal humans can have! Zhang Yuntian asked.
"That's right, it's not the power of humans, it's the power of zombies!"
"The power of zombies?"
"You've also fought with zombies, you should know that fighting them can only be won by skill, not by strength, even if there is a female zombie opposite, her strength is amazing, isn't it?"
Zhang Yuntian nodded, this is indeed the case, he was once knocked down by a fifteen or sixteen-year-old female zombie, if someone hadn't rescued him, he would have almost been able to serve her plate of food, but that girl was infected by a zombie because she didn't push away a fifty-pound bucket before, this huge contrast has always made him difficult to let go, and until now he doesn't understand why the same person can more than double his strength after becoming a zombie.
"That's because the human brain limits the human body to a small part of the strength of the muscles in order to protect itself, while zombies do not have this sense of protection, they can exert their strength to 80% or even 100%, so the power is much greater than that of ordinary people! But zombies have a fatal flaw, that is, their balance and agility are very poor, so they will not dodge attacks, nor can they climb and jump, otherwise the situation of humans will be even more difficult! ”
For this, Zhang Yuntian did not answer, ordinary zombies do travel slowly, they only run when they encounter humans, and they often trip, but mutated zombies are different, they have stronger speed and balance, if humans are allowed to race against them, it will definitely be a dead end!
Maybe it's because the Wanshi regime is located in the north and is far away from the radiation zone, so they haven't seen groups of mutant zombies yet, and they don't know if the fortifications here can withstand the attack of mutant zombies!
Gu Hongbo didn't know what Zhang Yuntian was thinking, and continued: "The corpse guard is a combination of zombie power and human agility, they can use firearms, and they are not afraid of zombie bites, so we call the corpse guard the ultimate weapon for humans to fight zombies!" ”
Liu Fugui, who had never spoken, nodded and expressed his approval, "It seems that District Chief Gu is still very clear about these old things, but he ignores one point, the reason why the corpse guard can be absolutely loyal is because the fourth-generation vaccine needs to use other people's blood as the carrier, and the corpse guard only obeys the orders of the owner of the vaccine carrier, so the dark side of betrayal, conspiracy, and intrigue between human beings, the corpse guard does not have it!" ”
Although the vaccine development failed, which made Zhang Yuntian feel a little disappointed, when he heard that the corpse guard had such a strong combat effectiveness, he couldn't help but have his eyes shining: if he had such a guard, he would face the zombies again, and he would no longer have to be as unbearable as usual! Moreover, if you go to rob a jewelry store or a silver vault or something in the future, with such a strong combat partner, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!
"Then can Brother Liu help the little brother find a way to get some corpse guards?" Zhang Yuntian's eyes showed a look of longing.
What Liu Fugui wants is this kind of expression, only by satisfying the other party's very eager wishes will he be appreciated and remembered, and this friendship can be regarded as the end, so he deliberately frowned and groaned for a while, "Tsk, this matter is not very easy to do, the corpse guards are divided into five levels, like the corpse guards next to me are fourth-level corpse guards, they were originally from special forces, so after becoming corpse guards, their abilities are even stronger!" With a corpse guard like this, there is no second person in the entire Fifth District except for that woman! ”
"But, if my brother wants some first-level and second-level corpse guards, I can still think of a way!"
As long as Danfan is a corpse guard, his ability is definitely more than one level beyond ordinary people, and they can use firearms, just by virtue of this, even if they encounter several mutated zombies, they can easily deal with it, so Zhang Yuntian has nothing to pick, let's get a few first, he quickly nodded and said: "Then Brother Lao Liu has to worry about it!" ”
A few people exchanged pleasantries for a while, and because Liu Fugui still had the task of collecting taxes, he left without too much delay.
Gu Hongbo experienced this peak and turn, and in addition to being grateful to Zhang Yuntian in his heart, he also had a few more admiration!
Gu Wanting is still a girl, she has a kind of hero complex, she saw Zhang Yuntian stand up when she was in trouble at home, and made Ding Hao suffer a big loss to put it mildly, and she also called him a brother and sister with such a pivotal figure as a tax collector, and she had long regarded him as an idol hero in her heart, and now looking at him, her eyes showed a strange brilliance.
A few days later, Liu Fugui brought a box of jewelry, as well as six second-level corpse guards, the figure of these corpse guards is much worse than the guards of the former, at first glance they are almost no different from ordinary survivors, Zhang Yuntian also accepted all the orders, and naturally gave him a lot of benefits.
Due to the great contribution of the family in this quarter, he was promoted to the general manager of the district, and owned the civilians, land and property of the entire block.
Originally, this reward should have been awarded to Zhang Yuntian, but he resolutely asked Gu Hongbo to receive it instead, and he was willing to be a small district chief below, because he knew very well the truth that the gun shot the first bird, and now in the fifth district, his foundation is not solid, and now he just wants to be a quiet and beautiful man who collects jewels everywhere!
