Chapter 0025 - True Immortality?
Qin Heng originally thought that the purpose of the U.S. military wanting to contact him was to let him escort the hero of this world and obtain a medicine that could make ordinary people immune to the zombie virus from a secret research base occupied by zombies.
He didn't mind accepting this mission, because he wanted to use it to gain the power to use more powerful weapons.
But what he didn't expect was that after contacting the other party by satellite phone, the other party only asked a little, not only did not mention the mission, nor did he say that he would provide any form of support, let alone the helicopter transfer that Kelvin and others hoped for.
[Is that mission already started, or is it that you don't like me?] Or, is it self-confidence in one's own combat effectiveness? 】
Qin Heng can't remember the specific time very clearly, and under normal circumstances, when watching a movie, no one cares about this kind of detail.
And only by relying on amazing combat power, it is not necessarily possible to get the opportunity to participate in this kind of mission, because most of the people who can survive the zombie crisis are still people from the military, and the people of the military themselves have enough combat power to face zombies.
Of course, if they have weapons and ammunition.
Besides, even if he really carried out that mission, it would be a little difficult to master a more powerful weapon, because Qin Heng was not from a professional background.
Thinking of this, Qin Heng was not discouraged, but wanted to start his own plan directly.
Although killing one by one is a bit slower, the chance of getting traits is much greater.
"Your wounds, alright?"
In a house, after washing his body with clean water, Qin Heng asked Catherine to help him change his bandages and medicine.
But what he didn't notice was that the wounds on his back had healed, which caused Catherine to exclaim.
"How is it possible, you keep fighting and changing dressings, those wounds should be more serious, how can they all scab, and some places have been completely healed."
Catherine stood behind Qin Heng, who was undressed, with her fingers on Qin Heng's back, carefully groping for the new skin that had faded away from the scabs, her face full of amazement.
Qin Heng actually noticed a trace of something wrong when he took a bath just now, but because the pain shielding feature had been turned on, he didn't think much about it.
At this moment, he heard Catherine's exclamation, and only then did he get up and look at his back in the mirror, especially the position of his buttocks.
Most of his previous injuries were in these two positions, and he was almost healed during the month he was lying in the hospital, and then some wounds broke due to strenuous activity.
But after such a short period of time, all the cracked wounds have scabbed, and the scabs in several places have also faded because of the bath just now, and the new skin looks intact except for the slightly white color.
[Is there a reason for the two characteristics of body control and physical fitness?] No, it's just these two characteristics, it can't be so fast, is it ......]
Qin Heng looked at his characteristic panel.
Trait 6: Physical Fitness Improvement (0.3), Trait 5: Undead without headshots (421/1000000).
[Does the trait of not headshots and immortal bodies have strong self-healing abilities? And although the characteristics of the fragments stacked now are very small, my injuries don't need too strong self-healing ability, so I healed in such a short time. 】
Qin Heng had always thought that the immortal body without a headshot was not a real immortal body. It's the same as zombies, even if you cut off your head, you can live for a while, but it's only for a while, and you will still die after that, just like the zombie who cut off your head before Qin Heng.
It is said that it is an immortal body, but in fact it is not really immortal, but it will not die for the time being.
But now that you think about it, it's likely that this feature is more than that.
[The characteristic comes from zombies, so it can be determined that it is an immortal body that will not die for the time being, so why does it have the ability to heal itself?] 】
Qin Heng thought about it.
[Why do zombies attack humans? It is because they want to eat humans, and based on the principle of conservation of energy, zombies cannot be active forever, even if the life form has been completely changed. Then, the purpose of their cannibalism is obvious, in order to live longer, that is, humans can provide them with energy. 】
[Moreover, the energy provided by humans to zombies should be more than just to maintain survival, just as human beings will have increased recovery ability when they are well nourished, and zombies can also gain resilience if they eat people. 】
[After this characteristic was transferred to me, because I am not a zombie life form, my digestive system is normal, and I can replenish my energy by eating food. And these energies, because of this characteristic of the immortal body without headshots, can provide me with more survival needs, as well as self-healing power. 】
Qin Heng's analysis was a bit far-fetched, but in the face of the extraordinary power of characteristics, it was very normal.
[So, in the future, if I superimpose this trait to a state of perfection, combined with the physical enhancement trait and the body control trait, it is possible to reach the level of a true immortal body? Rather than an immortal body that is temporarily immortal, provided that the physical fitness is enhanced to a certain extent. 】
Qin Heng finished his analysis and laughed happily.
This expression was the first time Catherine had seen it, and coupled with the well-defined muscles on Qin Heng's body, the abdominal muscles that could act as a washboard, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
The hand that was placed on Qin Heng's back couldn't help but slide down a little.
"Then you don't need to take the medicine."
Qin Heng felt some kind of upward momentum, and directly walked away two steps and got dressed, which made Catherine stunned, and her cheeks turned red.
[Huh...... Lao Tzu is going to Boston for a big battle, essence blood, essence blood, one drop of essence and ten drops of blood, how can he waste his physical strength at this time? 】
Qin Heng is sensible, he knows Catherine's thoughts very well, but he knows better the reason for this kind of thinking - his strength.
It is impossible for him to stop fighting until he can improve his strength, and even if he stops, it is to rest to recover his strength, and he will definitely not waste his strength.
"Wait until I get back from Boston."
Considering that his strength would reach an upper limit, there should be some rest time in this world, and Catherine's attitude towards herself was already so obvious, Qin Heng made an empty promise.
Catherine blushed and said, "I'll go with you." ”
Qin Heng nodded as a matter of course and said, "Of course, I need you to help me drive the boat, I mean, we're coming back from Boston." ”
[The 4.47 million resident population in the urban area should be enough for me to stack the characteristics of the immortal body without headshots. 】
Qin Heng rubbed Catherine's head, and with an expressionless face, he found a room and began to sleep.
Although Catherine really wanted to go up and sleep with Qin Heng, even if it was just to sleep with each other, she finally held back and stood guard at the door with a gun.
Qin Heng, who was pretending to sleep, felt Catherine's move, and the corners of his mouth pulled a trace of arc.
