Volume II, Chapter 13: A New Situation
Inward-looking.
This is an adjective that describes what is going on inside one's body, but in fact the surface of the body can be seen, and the inside cannot be seen without dissection.
However, as long as he concentrates, Fu Hongyang can feel a part of the situation in his body, this feeling is indescribable, but there is an inexplicable sense of supernatural reality - the black tree seedlings are in his body, and with supernatural feelings, he senses them through "inner vision".
I don't know where in the lower abdomen, a black tree seedling grows quietly, with two branches. On the first branch is a ripe black tree seedling fruit, and the ability of the fruit is still very vague, which seems to be related to "parasitic rebirth"; On the second branch, the seedlings are not yet ripe.
Somewhere in the heart, another black tree grows quietly, also with two branches. A mature seedling fruit on the first branch has shown its ability to "migrate and accommodate the black tree species"; On the second branch, the seedlings are not yet ripe.
There is also a black tree species, lying at the root of this black tree seedling, beating like a trumpet heart.
In an unknown location in the brain, there is also a black tree seedling that grows quietly, and unlike the last time it looked inside, it also pulled out two branches. On the first branch bears the fruit of the newly ripened black tree; The second branch had just been pulled out, and there was an immature black tree seedling hanging on it.
"What is the ability of this ripe black tree seedling?" Fu Hongyang could only feel the black tree seedling, but he couldn't detect its ability.
Only in the dream realm will the connection with the black tree seedlings and the black tree seedlings and fruits be clear.
He slowly withdrew from his inward state and exhaled, "Anyway, it must have something to do with 'minds', and even similar to the abilities of big heads. This made him look forward to it, the attack and defense methods of the big-headed zombies were too strong in actual combat.
An invisible defensive force that can't even shoot through bullets.
A silent shockwave, a direct attack on the brain, no matter how thick the armor is, it doesn't matter.
He was fantasizing about the superpowers he possessed, when suddenly a heart-wrenching sensation came from his arm, drawing his attention back to reality.
"Hiss......" he grabbed his left arm, sweat on his forehead, "It hurts so much, it feels like the bone is not broken, but there must be a crack." ”
I rubbed it, I felt more comfortable, and the pain was just for a while, not continuously.
"I wonder if the parasitic green fibers in my body can help me heal my cracked bones? In any case, it is best not to use too much force on your left hand for the next few days to prevent the bone from cracking wider. In fact, the cracked bone was only a minor problem, and when he looked down and saw the wound on his chest, he was really worried.
The torn clothes were stained red with blood.
However, there was no bleeding at this time, and under the repair of the green fibers, there was only a scratch on the chest that began to scab, and even the pain became very slight.
Such a wound, after a few days, it is estimated that you will not even find a scar.
But.
Fu Hongyang scratched his hair: "I haven't done any human experiments on zombie infection, will I be infected with the zombie virus, don't really become a zombie." He thought of the strange green slime in the zombie's body, and he always felt that there were already countless small bugs that had begun to multiply in his body.
"Roar!"
There were zombies screaming outside, and the town seemed to come alive all of a sudden.
Bang!
Another gunshot rang out, coming from the camphor haze-free area.
Fu Hongyang lifted his spirits, returned to the top of the building, and then ran quickly, returning to the position where he could observe the haze-free zone before.
But seeing that at this moment, hundreds of zombies have poured in in the camphor haze-free area, many of which are mutated zombies. It seems that there were survivors who were stunned by big-headed zombies before, and before they woke up, they were eaten. There are a few survivors with guns, trying to stop the zombies from eating people, but it arouses the excitement of the zombies even more.
Then the person who fired the gun was snatched away from the pistol by someone else and pulled into the building.
At this time, all the survivors hid in the building and did not dare to make a sound, only daring to occasionally look outside, waiting for the zombies to exit the haze-free zone by themselves.
Fu Hongyang looked at it for a while, and felt that he was also powerless, so he could only wait for the zombie tide to recede.
"Sure enough, this kind of small place, a settlement sheltered by a tree, is not safe at all, and a random mutated zombie or a group of zombie tides can flood the entire haze-free area. Hundreds of survivors, without the support of evolutionaries, are simply unable to compete with mutant zombies. ”
Looking at the camphor haze-free area, his heart returned to calm: "Should I save these survivors?" ”
He really wants to answer himself, these people are in charge of their own, and finding a safe settlement under the auspices of the government as soon as possible is the last word. However, his logical thinking made it impossible for him to ignore it - if his parents were still alive, if Xu Ya was still alive and was just an ordinary survivor.
Will there be evolutionary beings who have the same ideas as themselves and abandon them?
"If you can save it, you can save it, and if you can't save it, you can't save it." Fu Hongyang had a heroic spirit of "savior" in his heart, "However, the Tree of Formation, the Camphor Tree, the Brown Pear Tree, these mutated trees belong to strategic materials, and when I find a safe place to live, I must bring them over!" ”
Tree City.
This is the last safe refuge in this smog-shrouded apocalypse in his imagination. If you want to build a tree city, you must have enough mutant trees, and each one of them will be the cornerstone of the tree city.
"When I find a government-led tree city, I join, and then I go to find my parents and ...... If not, I'll build my own tree city! ”
Turn around.
He no longer waits and sees the camphor haze-free area, but turns back to the place where he fought the big-headed zombie before, and he still has one task to do - dissect the zombie.
Basically, when he encounters a mutant zombie with a difference, he will dissect it to understand the situation.
Click.
The phone took a picture, and he started to move.
The head of the big-headed zombie was the first part to be dissected, and the skull had already been stabbed by him with a fruit knife, and the green slime flowed all over the ground along with the foul smell. When he split the rest of his skull, he thought it was another disgusting slurry mixed with brain pulp and green slime.
However, in the slurry, a soft line was drawn.
The lines are a bit rubber-like, with a bit of Q-elastic feeling, woven together to form a strange net-like tube. The angles of the bends and the regularity of the interlacing gave him a strange sense of familiarity. After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized: "Isn't this what the brain looks like!" ”
The brain has gyrus and sulci, which fold into a ball.
This reticulated tube is roughly like removing the gyrus and sulcus of the brain, leaving only the backbone of some circuits. However, because the head of the big-headed zombie has mutated into a boiled egg, the brain structure that should have been round has become an elongated cylindrical structure.
"Will this mass of mutated matter in the brain have the function of a 'crystal nucleus'?" He thought with great interest that the crystal nucleus of the zombies in the novel would be of great help to human evolution.
But this one in front of you.
It is definitely impossible to eat it directly, and it will not be eaten directly after washing.
He put this reticulated mutant material aside and continued to dissect the corpse of the big-headed zombie: "Let's start with the stomach, the big head has eaten a lot of the flesh of the evolutionary, just look for any parasitic saplings in these meats!" ”
