Chapter 759: Mysterious Virion X
Baidu search Le'an Xuanshu network is the fastest stable update "This ghost place looks really infiltrating."
Looking at the sunlit streets, Fang Zheng shook his head and whispered to himself.
As Kei Ancestral Hall said, after the sun rises, the zombies that used to wander around disappear without a trace. The whole street was so empty that not even half of the animals could be seen. To be honest, it doesn't feel like a good sight.
If this is a long-abandoned city, it might be better, and the overgrown streets may look cluttered, but at least a sign that nature is active. But now, the city has maintained the appearance of a city for a long time, but when you look at it, you can't even see half of it, and this feeling can even give people the feeling that the city is just a set prop, similar to "Truman's World" like a "scene map". This can make people feel a little uneasy and even frightened, as if they are the only ones left behind......... Some kind of prop is the same. After seeing too much, I will even suspect that the world itself seems to be nothing more than a big toy box, and now, the owner of this box seems to have given up on this toy.
Although it may seem like this empty street at the moment allows Founder to play Need for Speed as much as he wants, in fact, the danger here is not low.
It can even be said that ......... Very high.
"Whoosh———!
Just as Fang Zheng was walking around the corner of the street, suddenly a thin black figure suddenly jumped up from the eaves next to him, and threw himself towards Fang Zheng with open arms. It is quite fast, almost as fast as a predatory cheetah. In the blink of an eye, the black shadow came to Fang Zheng's body——— and then was pierced through the body by a fierce arrow, screaming and flying upside down and nailed to the wall next to him, only to see the black shadow struggle a few times, and then gradually lowered his head and disappeared without a sound.
"SURE ENOUGH, IT'S HUNTER."
Fang Zheng walked to the wall, squinted his eyes and stared at the monster in front of him, it also looked like a zombie, but unlike the zombies that acted at night before, this zombie's skin was full of healed scars, it was a little short, its arms were long, and its legs were quite short. It looks closer to a gibbon-like form.
But what Fang Zheng values more are the scars on its body.
"Sure enough, is this also an evolution?"
Fang Zheng took out his personal terminal, scanned the monster in front of him, and then compared the data.
"How? Big brother? ”
At this time, Xiao Hei also came to Fang Zheng's side, carefully looked at the monster, and at the same time looked curiously at Fang Zheng's personal terminal in front of him.
"It seems that my guess is correct, all the mutants we've encountered so far are evolutions of zombies......... You see, this zombie also has signs of skin ulceration due to direct sunlight, but its wounds are healed, which is quite telling. ”
Saying this, Fang Zheng raised his head and looked at the scorching sun in the sky in front of him.
He and Blackie had been searching around the station for a morning, during which time Founder and Blackie had encountered several powerful mutants. However, contrary to Fang Zheng's guess, after coming into contact with these mutants, Fang Zheng was surprised to find that these mutants were not social creatures as he imagined, on the contrary, these mutants all acted alone, and they seemed to have some kind of territory consciousness and would attack the creatures that entered their territory.
Not only that, but through the dissection and scanning of these variants, Founder also discovered another pattern. That is, these mutants are all "evolved" from ordinary zombies, as for the source of their evolution......... Although Fang Zheng didn't want to admit it, for now, there was only one answer.
That's the sun.
So far, Fang Zheng has encountered a total of four mutants, all of whose bodies show signs of skin ulceration after being exposed to the sun and then healing. This also means that these mutants evolved into their current appearance after becoming ordinary zombies and being exposed to sunlight to produce secondary mutations.
Now Fang Zheng was just not sure if this evolution was conscious or just accidental, after all, the several mutants he had seen before had different evolutionary directions, and the important thing was .........
"That's pretty much enough to collect samples."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng reached out and cut a small sample from the corpse in front of him, and put it in a glass box.
"Let's go back, Blackie."
"Okay, big brother."
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Xiao Hei threw a piece of chocolate into his mouth, and then nodded.
When Fang Zheng and Xiao Hei returned to the station as a stronghold, it was already a new place. I have to admit that Cuihe Ancestral Hall Gui is still very attentive, at least when Fang Zheng walked in the door, looking at the bright and clean hall and clean furniture in front of him, his mood was much better than before.
"You're back, Brother Fangzheng, Sister Little Black........."
Seeing Fang Zheng and Xiao Hei coming back, Cui also hurriedly greeted them and looked at the two with a smile.
"I'm back, Emerald."
Looking at the cat-eared girl in front of him, Fang Zheng smiled and reached out to touch Cui's head, and at the same time rubbed her soft cat ears.
"How's it going? Any response? ”
"Xia Shi's side hasn't responded yet, Miss Ancestral Hall Kei is helping ........."
"I see."
Hearing this, Fang Zheng was not surprised, the city has become like this now, it is like hell. Fang Zheng believes that if you just pull a survivor over in Resident Evil, it is a question of whether you can survive a day in this ghost place. Of course, Alice may be an exception......... Maybe not the exception, who knows?
"I'm going to do some research work next, you and Xiao Hei go and rest first."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng walked to a closed compartment next to him——— which was originally used as a storage room for train maintenance equipment, but now Fang Zheng used it as his own laboratory.
After closing the door, Fang Zheng took out five glass boxes from his pocket and placed them on the table, then he opened his personal terminal and began to carefully scan and study the virus inside.
Fang Zheng is not a biologist, in fact, his understanding of biology was very basic when he was in college. But this does not mean that he has been blind for so many years. Especially after mastering the talent of the Time Dragon, Fang Zheng found that many things that he used to look like Heavenly Books could now be easily understood......... Well, thanks to this talent, Founder tasted the happiness of a scholar for the first time in his life.
And now, he is finally able to "apply what he has learned".
Of the five samples at the moment, two of them were taken from "ordinary zombies", and the remaining three samples were from three different mutants. Now Fang Zheng wants to see how this world can "justify itself" in a "biochemical world" that has been completely mixed?
The results of the test made Fang Zheng a little surprised.
After comparing the "basic virus" samples collected from ordinary zombies with the "mutant virus" samples collected from mutants, Fang Zheng was surprised to find that the structure between the two has undergone completely different changes, and it can even be said that it is a completely different thing!
If the "basic virus" is compared to a handful of soil, then the "mutant virus" is like burning the soil into bricks, making clay sculptures, and even making ceramics. Although the "raw materials" are all the same thing, the "finished products" themselves are very different.
Not only that, but these "mutant viruses" themselves are still not in a complete state, and after analysis and research, it is found that these viruses are still further "evolving and upgrading", but after their hosts are killed, this evolutionary process is interrupted.
And in the end, Fang Zheng finally figured out what was going on with the virus in this biochemical world.
According to current observations, the initial "basic virus" will spread through water, air and blood, and infect other people. At the same time, it rapidly produces mutations that erode the host's body. The human immune system reacts violently, and the two sides start fighting. At first, the immune system may have the upper hand, but eventually the "basal virus" destroys the immune system, kills the host, and transforms it into zombies.
At this stage, zombies will be filled with a strong desire to eat due to the activity of the virus, thus attacking other living organisms. They are also afraid of sunlight and try to avoid it.
But if the zombies are unfortunately exposed to the sun, then the "basic virus" in their bodies will begin to frantically mutate twice to resist the damage caused by the sun. As it stands, their mutations themselves seem to be random. For example, the few mutants that Fang Zheng encountered before, although they all have the ability to withstand sunlight, their way of moving, hunting methods, and body size are very different.
Not only that, Founder also found that in the process of secondary mutation, the evolution of these viruses was irregular, completely random.
It's like the calculation result is 9, whether you choose 4+5 or 1+8 or 3X3, as long as you can get the result of "9", there is no uniformity in the intermediate process!
In a way, this virus is somewhat similar to the Zerg, but the difference is that the evolution of the Zerg is integrated by "taking the strengths of a hundred schools". And the evolution process of this virus is more like "roll the dice a hundred times, as long as one is a double six, then I win.........
In a way, this virus is even more of a headache than the T-virus......... Baidu search Le'an Xuanshu Net(乐安宣书网)
