Chapter 160: Cannibalism
After listening to Yi Xiao's words, Wang Zhuang pondered for a long time and nodded. "If, as you say, the world has become very dangerous, then I am willing to work for you. After all, I was a worker before, so I thought I had changed bosses, and I was all a part-time job, and there was nothing to lose. It's just that before I do that, I want to see the world with my own eyes. ”
On the first day of the outbreak of the end times, Wang Zhuang and the others were trapped in the underground warehouse, and they could be said to know nothing about the end times. With just a few words from Yi Xiao, it is not easy to make them understand the cruelty of the last days.
However, Wang Zhuang can be regarded as a smart person, no matter what, the ability that Yi Xiao showed just now is beyond the scope of his understanding. There is a good saying, life is like a wall, if you can't resist, then enjoy it. They don't know anything about the end times now, and it is definitely the best choice to follow Yi Xiao.
Wang Zhuang obviously had a lot of say among these workers, and as soon as he agreed, the workers behind him expressed their willingness to agree to Yi Xiao's conditions. Even a few people still had a little disbelief in their eyes, and finally chose to obey the decision of the majority.
"Trust me, you'll be glad you've decided today." Yi Xiao nodded, showing a satisfied smile. "By the way, do you have a generator here?"
Without the generator, the machines on it wouldn't work. These workers know everything about the factory, and if there is a generator, they must know where it is.
Wang Zhuang nodded, pointed to a machine in the corner and said, "That's it, I just replenished the diesel reserves not long ago, and there are still a lot of spare diesel, which should be used for a long time." ”
"Very well, from today onwards, you are the head of these workers, and these workers are under your management." Yi Xiao didn't waste too much time on these things, and he had to find someone to manage these workers.
Wang Zhuang has a calm personality and is very familiar with these workers, so he is the best choice.
Ignoring the reaction of the workers, Yi Xiao continued: "Now, your first task is to take these workers to move the generator. ”
"Okay."
Since the generator is to be moved, it will definitely not work to go back the same way, and the emergency passage will not allow the generator to pass through. Yi Xiao walked to the door of the basement and took out the Thunder Demon Sword and slashed it.
The razor-sharp Thunder Demon Sword easily cut a huge gap through the heavy iron door, enough for these people to pass freely.
Looking at the destroyed iron gate, the workers were once again shocked by Yi Xiao's power. They knew very well what the basement door was made of, and it was no exaggeration to say that even if someone bombarded the door with rocket launchers, they would be safe inside.
But now, this mysterious young man who suddenly arrived actually split the gate with a sword! It feels as easy as slicing tofu.
"I'll be waiting for you up there." After saying that, Yi Xiao turned around and walked out of the basement, leaving the workers in a daze.
After a while, Yi Xiao returned to Mo Hua again. Mo Hua looked at Yi Xiao with a happy face and asked, "Gained?" ”
Yi Xiao nodded. "There are a few survivors in the basement, workers here before the end of the world......"
Mo Hua put down the work in his hand and listened carefully to Yi Xiao's narration.
“…… That's the way it is, with these workers, it must be of great help to us. Yi Xiao said.
"Yes, it helps."
Yi Xiao suddenly thought of something, and the joy on his face gradually faded. "There is another problem, that is, the secrecy of the meta-energy converter, the fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, and this kind of technology can only serve us. But once in production, it is inevitable to hire a large number of workers, although I will strictly control these workers to prevent them from coming into contact with outsiders and to minimize leaks. But there's no guarantee of foolproof, so is there anything you can do? ”
It's not that Yi Xiao is self-cherishing, to a certain extent, he is not stingy. But he is not a fool, the Yuan Energy Converter was painstakingly developed by Mohua, and he also put a lot of effort into bringing it into production.
When the city is built, this Yuanneng technology will definitely become the core pillar of the city, and there must be no leakage in the production process!
"If that's what you're worried about, don't worry. First of all, these workers are only responsible for the production of parts, and the complexity of the elemental energy converter does not mean that they can be assembled if they know the parts they need. Secondly, in addition to the necessary parts, the meta-energy converter also needs a lot of complex magic arrays, and without design drawings, it is impossible to restore a complete meta-energy converter! ”
"Moreover, the knowledge of the magic array is very cumbersome, and if you don't have years to study it, even if you know the magic array, you can't depict it."
Hearing Mo Hua's explanation, the last concern in Yi Xiao's heart was solved. All that's left is to wait for the first batch of parts to be produced, and the finished product of the elemental energy converter can be completely launched!
"I'm more concerned about another issue now." Mo Hua said suddenly.
"What's the problem?" Yi Xiao was puzzled.
"If what the workers said is true, there must be more than one zombie here. But we only encountered one giant zombie, where did the other zombies go? ”
"Looking at the situation here, what the workers said should be true." Yi Xiao glanced at the environment of the factory and said, "But there are no other exits here, and there is no trace of damage to the wall, could it be that those zombies have disappeared out of thin air?" ”
"There is only one possibility, to be eaten by the giant zombies!"
"What?" Yi Xiao was a little surprised, zombies eat zombies? This is the first time I've heard of it.
"It should be needed for the evolution of zombies, and zombies hunt humans to replenish energy, not only to maintain the consumption of the body, but also to meet the needs of evolution. Whether it is a giant zombie or an agile zombie, it is a mutation that occurs after eating a certain number of humans. ”
"These zombies are trapped here, unable to hunt humans, and the only option to continue evolving is to eat their own kind. This giant zombie should have eaten all its kind and met the evolutionary conditions, so it mutated into a giant zombie. ”
Yi Xiao nodded, Mo Hua's statement explained the reason for the disappearance of those zombies very well. "But what's the point of knowing that?"
With Yi Xiao's understanding of Mo Hua, he would definitely not waste his tongue talking about these meaningless things. Since Mo Hua said this question, it is impossible that he is really just curious about the reason for the disappearance of zombies.
Sure enough, Mo Hua spoke again. This phenomenon shows that there is actually an evolutionary need in the subconscious of zombies, and they are constantly ingesting energy to meet the evolutionary need. Spurred on by this demand, agile zombies and giant zombies are by no means the end of evolution. Even if the humans within a certain range are eaten, they will hunt their own kind to continue to evolve, and I estimate that it won't be long before new zombies will appear! ”
"New zombies? Are you referring to the zombies of the third stage? ”
