Chapter 7: The Truth of the First Wave of the Holocaust

The two quickly returned to the martial arts hall, and they did not encounter any danger along the way.

In fact, with the strength of the two of them, if they really encounter an ordinary infected person, then it should be the infected person who is dangerous.

"It's getting harder and harder to find infected people."

At the door of the martial arts hall, Zhu Jiu looked around without leaving a trace when he closed the door, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"On the way back, I didn't encounter any infected people, so if I go on like this, will I have to go to another neighborhood?"

The farther he ran, the higher the danger factor, and Zhu Jiu was not arrogant enough to think that he could run rampant in the last days.

For now, at least, a pistol can pose a big threat to him.

"Use up the 41 points first."

Zhu Jiu thought about it, returned to the bedroom alone, and directly upgraded the iron cloth shirt to four levels in a row.

【Host: Zhu Jiu (Health)】

[Title: Entry-level martial artist]

[Ancient Martial Arts: Wing Chun Fist Level 9 (Wing Chun is a first-order ancient martial art, cannot be upgraded before advancement), Bagua Knife level 7 (Bagua Knife is a first-order ancient martial arts, can be upgraded by consuming 10 points) Iron Cloth Shirt Level 6 (Iron Cloth Shirt is a first-order ancient martial art, cannot be upgraded before advancement)

[Integral: 1 (the system can absorb dark energy and convert it into integral)]

[Warning: Dark energy has exploded, the first wave of catastrophe has arrived, please prepare the host to deal with the catastrophe]

"I've run out of points again, but this power ......"

After the upgrade was completed, Zhu Jiu took off his shirt and looked at his body.

At this time, his body looked as if it had been carved by a master, every muscle, every fiber was just right, and his skin was faintly bronze, as if it was made of metal.

He pressed his muscles, and found that they were as strong as metal forged. 、

Zhu Jiu was a little surprised: "According to this muscle strength, ordinary knives are almost lethal to me." ”

"Meet again. Weapons like crossbows, as long as they don't hit the vital point, are very little of a threat to me. ”

"It's already so strong at level 6, how strong will it be after level 9?"

Zhu Jiu thought expectantly, and then pushed open the door and walked out of the bedroom.

At this time, in the hall of the martial arts hall, the fat man sat there bored, fiddling with two dumbbells in his hands.

The twenty-kilogram dumbbell is like a bottle of mineral water in his hand.

"Big brother is done? How do I feel like you're different? ”

The fat man stared at Zhu Jiu and said suspiciously.

Zhu Jiu knew that it was probably because the iron cloth shirt had been upgraded to the fourth level at a time, and his momentum had vaguely changed.

He didn't want to discuss this with the fat man, so he changed the topic and asked the fat man:

"You're an evolutionary, aren't you? What are the abilities of evolutionaries? How is it different from normal people? ”

The fat man sighed: "Huh? I didn't feel energy fluctuations in you, so you shouldn't be an evolutionary, so how did you know that I was an evolutionary? ”

Zhu Jiu glanced at him lightly and said, "I met an evolutionary before, and I chatted a few words. ”

"Eh, what about the others?" The fat man's face was happy: "Hurry up and shout out to meet together." ”

"Too much nonsense, slaughtered by me." Zhu Jiu said slowly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The fat man looked at Zhu Jiu, his expression was a little unnatural, as if recalling some unpleasant experiences, he laughed a few times and said:

"I am indeed an evolutionary, as for my abilities ......"

The fat man paused, his little eyebrows twitched, and he said a little proudly: "I can manipulate metal." ”

As he spoke, the fat man's eyes stared at the dumbbell in his hand, and his expression suddenly became solemn.

In the next second, the two dumbbells in his hands suddenly began to change, and the all-metal dumbbells became like plasticine in the fat man's hands, and he was casually clumped around.

At this time, the fat man was like a clever magician, his ten fingers were extremely flexible, changing the shape of the metal in his hand little by little, and finally pinched the metal into a metal stick more than one meter long.

The stick has a metallic sheen and looks very good!

In the end, the fat man carved a few patterns on it, handed the stick to Zhu Jiu, and said:

"How about it, fat man, my skills are okay!"

"Playing with iron, I'm serious!"

Zhu Jiu ignored him, and looked at the metal stick in his hand carefully, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"The quality of this stick is even higher than that of those masters on the market, and the texture of my two knives is not much different."

Zhu Jiu was a little surprised, but the two knives he had spent a lot of money to find top craftsmen to forge in the past, using the best materials.

At that time, those two knives alone cost him hundreds of thousands.

It's a treasure among weapons.

And this stick, a minute ago, was two ordinary dumbbells!

"This fat man's ability is so strong?"

Zhu Jiu was a little surprised, could it be that all evolutionaries are so strong?

The fat man's ability may be a bit limited in battle, after all, the opponent may not be able to fight him with metal weapons, just like before he was chased by five infected people.

But if his ability is placed in logistics, it is simply a miracle skill!

Just make some metal, and you can directly turn it into a weapon.

With such logistical support, he can also let go of his hands and feet when he fights, and he doesn't have to worry about the destruction of weapons or anything.

"This guy has to stay around."

Zhu Jiu instantly made up his mind to keep the fat man by his side and use it as his own logistical support.

The fat man didn't notice Zhu Jiu's psychological changes, and said smugly:

"Of course, not everyone's ability is as strong as the fat man, I have met two evolutionaries before, one of them has the ability to make himself bigger, and then the strength and speed have some improvement, I feel that his ability is very ordinary."

"The other one is a little interesting, that guy can turn himself into a half-human, half-wolf form, a bit like a werewolf in the movie, but I don't know what the specific strength is."

Zhu Jiu nodded, and said secretly in his heart:

"Strengthening the body, changing forms, and manipulating metal, these evolutionary abilities all sound good."

Zhu Jiu faintly felt a trace of pressure, if he didn't progress fast enough, maybe he would really be overtaken by these guys.

Thinking of this, he asked again:

"In addition to superpowers, what other changes have occurred in the body after evolution?"

"There's a lot of change, there's still a lot of that." The fat man fingered his fingers and said, "For example, eyesight and hearing have been enhanced." I used to be highly short-sighted, but now I have good eyes. ”

The fat man said, a pair of small eyes turned around in a sloppy circle, and his expression was a little obscene.

"Also, my physical fitness has improved several times, and I guess my physical fitness is comparable to that of a top boxer."

"And after evolving, I have an additional sixth sense on top of my original five sensesβ€”"

The fat man paused and muttered, "How to say it, it's as if I can feel a kind of qi, and it is this qi that is guiding me to evolve, and I can also clearly feel that other evolutionaries also have a very strong aura in their bodies. ”

"It's not just us who have this kind of gas, but those who are infected, it's just more messy, and there's this kind of gas in the air, but it's too thin to be useful."

"I can vaguely feel that as long as I continue to absorb this qi, I can continue to evolve."

After the fat man finished speaking, he picked up a bag of potato chips and ate it happily.

Zhu Jiu sat aside, frowning silently, thinking about what the fat man said.

"The qi that the fat man said should be what the system calls dark energy."

"Originally, human beings only had five senses: shape, sound, smell, taste, and touch. The evolutionary added a sixth sense, the perception of dark energy, to these five senses. ”

Based on the information obtained on this day, coupled with what the fat man said just now, Zhu Jiu already had a general idea of this first wave of catastrophe at this time.

"It seems that this first wave of catastrophe should be a burst of dark energy."

"Humans passively absorb this energy, and then a part of them evolves."

"If you succeed in evolution, you will have superhuman-like abilities, and you can continue to absorb dark energy to evolve."

"If you fail to evolve, you become infected, lose your mind, become a monster, and have the ability to continue to infect other creatures, as well as devour other creatures to become stronger."

"Where the hell does this dark energy come from? Have other animals and plants evolved other than humans? ”

Just thinking about it, Zhu Jiu's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

[The first wave of the catastrophe is over]

[The second wave of Havoc will begin in 48 hours after the detection of the second wave, please prepare as soon as possible]
