Chapter 278: Brain Worm
At the same time as the resentful soul clone exploded, a light blue translucent jellyfish also floated on the parasitic zerg's body, and it was the first time You Ming had seen this kind of soul jellyfish, but before he could taste the taste of this soul jellyfish first, the soul jellyfish seemed to be pulled and merged with the resentful soul clone.
The black shadow-like resentful clone reappeared, and You Ming noticed a spiritual fluctuation spreading from it, and the Zerg who were frantically attacking the survivors around it seemed to have received some kind of mysterious signal, and at the same time stopped attacking, and suddenly dispersed in all directions.
Xiao Pepper left when he first saw the Zerg gaining the upper hand, and looked at You Ming with some surprise and asked, "What's the matter with the Boss Zerg?" Are we still chasing? ”
You Ming shook his head and said, "No need to chase." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the resentful clone in a daze, just now the resentful clone took the initiative to pass a message to him, although he could also communicate with the resentful clone before, but they were all giving orders, and the resentful clone was like an intelligent program, which would only perform the tasks assigned to him.
And just now the resentful clone dispersed the Zerg but it was an autonomous act, and the reason why this happened was also very simple, that is, the resentful clone "upgraded", and the information it transmitted also illustrated this.
In addition to being more "intelligent", the upgraded resentful soul clone also has some of the abilities of the brain worm, which is the Zerg parasitic in the woman's body, and the strength of the Zerg itself is not strong, but it has strong spiritual power and wisdom.
Whenever the Zerg conquers a race, the Brainworm will inevitably parasitize in the group first, learn the characteristics of the race, and integrate into the group, destroying and disintegrating the race from within.
As the commander of the Zerg, the powerful spiritual power of the brain worm can allow it to command most of the Zerg, of course, this ability is not there at the beginning, it needs to be fused with the host, and constantly absorb the "nutrients" to gradually grow before it can be had.
The nutrients mentioned here are knowledge and wisdom, the more knowledge the brain worm absorbs, the corresponding spiritual power will be greatly developed, and the faster it will grow, and the brain worm that was killed just now is still a larvae, and there is only one digging worm as a bodyguard by his side.
When the worm temporarily counterattacked, the powerful spiritual power somehow fused with the resentful soul clone, and after the resentful soul clone absorbed its soul jellyfish, it also had part of the power of the brain worm.
Through the information transmitted, You Ming knew that the current resentful clone had the ability to shield or disperse some low-level zergs, of course, all of this was premised, that is, there were no large-scale insect swarms, or there were high-level zergs.
You Ming also knew that all gas stations had been ordered to be destroyed by the parasite of the brain worm before, and the reason why this was so was because the parasite was originally an employee of the gas station, and in the memory she left, the brain worm knew that fuel was extremely important to humans, so she deliberately looked for the destruction of the gas station.
Glancing at the dead and wounded survivors around him, You Ming sighed and said, "Xu Guang let's go, you lead the way, let's go to the next gas station." ”
Xu Guang was stunned for a moment and said, "Captain You, don't you go to this gas station?" ”
"No, the gas station has been vandalized." You Ming glanced at the gas station and explained, "It was the parasite who did it." ”
Xu Guang nodded, he fought with the Zerg just now, although he didn't see the weirdness of the brain worm, but it was an indisputable fact that the digging worm was killed, there was such a powerful Zerg corpse to deter, Xu Guang didn't doubt You Ming's words at all.
Several dark green stinging insects hovering at low altitude suddenly swooped down, and just when everyone was on guard, the stinging insects seemed to be frightened and rose into the air.
Zhang Hai cut off the neck of a zombie that pounced on him with a knife, and when he looked up, he found that in the alley not far away, dozens of zergs were watching them, and he was taken aback, but what happened next made him even more surprised, these bugs ignored them and let them walk in front of them.
Little Pepper was ready to fight, and seeing that the insect swarm did not attack, he couldn't help but mutter: "The Zerg can't see us, are they all blind?" ”
"Let's go, it's not good not to have to fight the Zerg." Zhang Hai grabbed Xiao Pepper's arm and walked forward quickly, Xu Guang and the others were even more relieved, hoping that all the Zerg would be like this next.
However, he didn't think about himself
His wish came true, until he found a new gas station, got fuel and returned to the clubhouse smoothly, except for dealing with some zombies on the way, the other zerg either ignored them or avoided everyone in advance.
In the clubhouse, the team led by Du Mang has not yet returned, and You Ming is not surprised by this, they can go so smoothly because of the new abilities brought by the upgrade of the resentful soul clone, but even so, several survivors were still lost in the previous battle.
It wasn't until almost noon that Du Mang brought people back, similar to You Ming's situation, Du Mang also took many survivors in the club out to look for fuel, but he used these people as cannon fodder, although he also found some fuel, few of the survivors in the club could come back alive.
However, Du Mang and the others are not without other gains, they came back in a bus, so that there are many vehicles stored in the underground garage in the clubhouse, and everyone does not have to worry about the vehicles.
The convoy was on the road again, except for two minibuses, the other vehicles were replaced by all luxury cars, and the You Ming team also changed to an off-road RV, still driving in front of the convoy, and the driver also changed from Zhang Hai to Xu Guang, who was more familiar with the road conditions.
Although there are many Zerg in the wild, due to the mental fluctuations released by the resentful soul clone, they have never been blocked by the Zerg along the way, even if they encounter the Zerg blocking the road, they are all dispersed by the resentful soul clone, of course, this is so smooth without encountering the high-level Zerg.
You Ming sat in the co-pilot and looked at the desolate scene outside the car window, the busy highway where cars used to come and go, at this moment, only scattered abandoned vehicles and wandering zombies everywhere remained.
"Damn it's blocked again." Xu Guang cursed under his breath and stopped the car.
You Ming looked up, and more than a dozen abandoned cars on the road in front of him blocked all the lanes.
This kind of situation of abandoned vehicles blocking the lane has also been encountered many times, and it is not a new thing, and each time the evolutionaries in the team work together to push the abandoned cars away one by one.
As soon as the car stopped, You Ming had just gotten out of the car, and dozens of ragged and yellow-skinned men rushed out from both sides of the road, and these people surrounded the convoy as soon as they appeared.
