Chapter 13: The Zerg
If there's one thing that has lived on Earth for the longest time, it's that the Zerg can definitely stand out in front. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info The current technology is not developed, but it is certain that the history of the Zerg is definitely much earlier than the birth of humans, and scientists have discovered a 2.6 billion-year-old bug before the end of the world. There are more than 10 million species of bugs in the world, accounting for as much as half of all living species on the planet, and these small races often have a staggering number! In the memory of Chu Tian in the previous life, it seems that a year later, the survivor base of Han City was jointly attacked by the water tribes by the river and the Zerg tribes on the land, and it is said that the coastal cities are facing much greater crises than the inland.
Following the direction of the insect activity on the ground, Chu Tian and the three of them kept walking to the west, and there were more and more insects on the ground, and when they came to a large building complex, there were so many insects on the ground that there was almost nowhere to put their feet. I saw that the field in front of the building complex was full of dense insects, the vegetation in the field had been gnawed clean, and the large and small insects were hurriedly carrying something, and the orderly huge group made the three of them have an illusion, did they fall into the ant nest? Ignoring the two stunned teammates, Chu Tian squatted on the ground and began to carefully observe the creepy insects on the ground.
Approaching those bugs, Chu Tian found that most of the bugs were not ants, and there were probably no more than 10 million bugs gathered here. The insects, of all sizes and species, seemed to have been instructed to move almost everything they could eat nearby to a nearby complex. These insects have a clear division of labor: some large insects in the field use complex mouthparts to divide the vegetation in the field into large and small pieces, throw them on the ground, and then be carried away by various crustacean insects on the ground, and under the command of some insects on the roadside, they line up in a long line to carry them to the buildings not far away.
These insects moved almost everything, and after looking at it for a while, Chu Tian found several kinds of food, including grain, wood, and even stones! The three of them did not get close to the building complex, in the face of these huge populations, the three of them had very few means of attack, Chu Tian guessed that the building complex not far away should be a warehouse, and the defense inside should not be weak, there is either a treasure in it or there is a insect king of not low level, if there is a teammate who can fire ability, it will be much easier, it seems that the school auditorium must be walked as soon as possible, otherwise there is really no way to take the Zerg in this place on his side.
According to Chutian's memory, most of the school will be powered off after three days, and after the power outage, the school will also organize personnel to defend the main gates of the school as soon as possible, except for a small number of students who insist on going out, most of them follow the advice of the school leaders, stay in the school, and stick to waiting for the rescue of the government and the army, maybe most of them will not know that the army will come here to rescue after a month at the earliest.
After successfully entering the school and letting the two of them wait for him near the school auditorium, Chu Tian walked towards the experimental building on the north side of the school, he was going to find a professor, Teacher Qian Guozhong, who taught biology in his previous life. This teacher Qian Guozhong, who is ostensibly in charge of three classes of biology, has another identity in the school---- one of the members of the Life Science Research Committee, on the surface is an ordinary old man, but in fact he is also in charge of the laboratory of the Department of Biology of the University of Science and Technology, a senior biologist who enjoys special national allowances, he was the first in the last days to develop an evolutionary potion that can break through the limits of the human body---- "Gene Potion", and the time seems to be just a month later.
The appearance of the "gene potion" quickly caused a sensation among all the human survivors, and soon the professor was taken to Beiping to continue the optimization and research of the "gene potion". This newly developed "gene potion" only has a success rate of about 10%, and there are quite a few side effects, but despite this, it still makes countless people crazy in the early days of the last days! Because as long as this "gene potion" is successful, it can make an ordinary person quickly awaken the ability genes in his body and become a powerful ability, and if he can become a stranger, he will not be easily infected by zombie monsters.
The effect of this "gene potion" is somewhat similar to the bottle of "Erguotou" in his hand, the effect is much worse than turtle blood, but it can be mass-produced, and the "Erguotou" in his hand is no longer enough, and if it continues like this, it will definitely not be a long-term solution, so this "gene potion" must be prepared more and left in his hand, but what Chutian didn't know was that the "gene potion" developed by Professor Qian in the previous life was much less than he imagined.
Soon Chu Tian inquired all the way, came to the biology laboratory on the north side of the school, and recruited Professor Qian who was researching, in the face of people who really had the ability, Chu Tian was full of respect in his heart, looking at the professor who was still busy, he didn't go up to disturb, just waited quietly at the door.
With a "bang", just as Chu Tian was thinking about the problem, the door of the laboratory was hurriedly opened, and a figure rushed in quickly and bumped into Chu Tian, who was still in a daze. Although Chu Tian reacted quickly and grabbed the other party's two arms, the stack of materials that the other party was pregnant with still fell out a lot! The cliché plot, but unfortunately Chu Tian's mind was not on the other party, and when the other party stood firm, he picked up the information that fell on the ground and handed it to the guy who was whispering "I'm sorry", Chu Tian waved his hand indifferently, and the man whispered thank you again, and quickly walked towards Professor Qian over there.
When Professor Qian felt that someone was coming to his side, he raised his head slightly and glanced at the other party, and said with a smile: "Teacher Wang, have you found the information?"
"Well, the August 2022 materials are all here." may have noticed that there was an outsider named Chutian, and Teacher Xiao Wang explained to Professor Qian in a low voice.
Seeing the two of them looking at his side, Chu Tian also stepped forward generously and politely introduced the two of them: "I am a student in the Department of Civil Engineering in my freshman year, and I am very interested in the topic that Professor Qian is currently researching, and I hope to discuss the research with you." ”
Listening to Chu Tian's somewhat lame reason, Teacher Wang over there laughed "poof", and Professor Qian also said thoughtfully: "Young man, you are here to find me, tell me, what is the matter?" ”
Chu Tian, who was recognized, was not embarrassed, and said confidently: "If I didn't guess wrong, the topic that the two of them are studying now should be related to the evolution of life, and I happen to have some personal opinions in this regard, I hope we can cooperate and make a breakthrough as soon as possible!" ”
"Cooperation?" "Aren't you a civil engineering student? Why did you become interested in the topic of the Department of Biology? The two were a little skeptical of Chu Tian's explanation.
"Well, I'll tell you the truth, I'm personally very interested in your research topic, if I can, I want to take some of the results of the experiment, this is my sincerity." After speaking, Chu Tian handed Professor Qian a small vial of "Erguotou" with turtle blood added to it. To be honest, if it weren't for the conditions, Chu Tian really wanted to do his own research on the "gene potion", but unfortunately the experience of later generations only let him know the general theory of the "gene potion", but he didn't know the specific experimental data.
"Can it be opened? What's in it?" Professor Qian took the bottle.
Chu Tian hesitated for a moment, and explained in a low voice: "This is the blood of a mutant beast, it should be very helpful for your subject, I also got it by accident, and the number is not much, re-recognize, my name is Chu Tian, and I am a stranger." ”
After speaking, Chu Tian's right hand was spread out, and a large water balloon with a diameter of twenty centimeters floated above the palm of his hand, this magical scene stunned Teacher Xiao Wang who was standing aside. "That's what you can do to become an Adept, right? You give me another copy, don't worry, after the research is out, the things will be yours, and I will only be interested in the parameters" The professor shook the vial in his hand and said calmly.
"Well, I hope to be able to mass-produce this kind of thing, and if there is any difficulty, I can come over and help." Chu Tian also returned calmly, and by the way, handed the professor a small bottle of "Erguotou" again. If you want to deal with this kind of "old antique", you can't do it without enough sincerity, and the professor's calmness is also in his imagination, Chutian can be sure that the professor has definitely seen the "supernatural" before, and this society is far more complicated than imagined!
In the next few days, when Chu Tian was free, he would run to Professor Qian's side and keep sending some strange materials. The situation on the campus was similar to the previous one, and after three days, most areas began to lose water and electricity, and the school's leaders began to organize personnel to hold on to the gates after discussion. Han is a famous university town, and most of the students quickly calmed down after being appeased by the leaders, and began to organize a planned defense, but nothing too bad happened.
Under the influence of Chu Tian, intentionally or unintentionally, the school has undergone great changes: several doorways and fences have been reinforced layer by layer, and multiple squads take turns guarding them; Under the leadership of the "Student Union", the students on campus are doing the task of finding supplies and rescue, and have set up a "security brigade"; Many buildings have been demolished, renovated...
In fact, Chu Tian didn't intend to interfere with the school's arrangements at first, but Wang Fei, who was bitten by a zombie, suddenly mutated in the auditorium, and instead of becoming a zombie, he became a powerful power evolutionary.
Wang Fei's unexpected awakening stunned the people around him, but he didn't tell anyone about Chutian, but quietly found Chutian and joined Chutian's team with his two roommates. The people in the school are not stupid, several powerful people get together, it is difficult not to attract attention, and soon the student union found a few people in Chutian and explained their intentions, and this time they did not hide it, except for the matter of turtle blood, they cooperated with the student union. Chutian himself is not good at management, and he has to stay here for a while, so he simply made some suggestions to the student union, and there are all kinds of "wise moves" of the student union in the future.
After several people joined the "Student Union", they set up a "Shocking Squad", with seven members for the time being: Chu Tian, Jia Zhengyang, Huang Lei, Wang Fei, Li Mingguo, Zhang Qian, and Wang Mingxia.
Li Mingguo and Zhang Qian are the roommates of Wang Fei in Room 217, as for Wang Mingxia is the little Wang teacher in the laboratory, when he learned that Chutian planned to set up an expedition team, he also shouted to add it, it is worth mentioning that this little Wang teacher is not very old, only 25 years old, is a veritable "academic tyrant" senior sister, this year in the school while taking the postgraduate examination, while sitting and teaching, but Chu Tian always felt that this senior sister with black-framed eyes was somewhat familiar, but there were not too many memories in his mind.
With the increase in personnel, Chu Tian and the others simply went out to explore generously, bringing back all kinds of mutated ingredients. In the last days, it is a disaster for the weak, and it is heaven for the strong, and the mutated ingredients have an energy that is difficult to compare with ordinary food, and when others are still worried about food, Chu Tian and several people have completely gotten rid of the biggest problem of eating.
On the afternoon of September 14, on the fourth floor of the university's biology experiment building, all the members of the "earth-shattering team" and Professor Qian with a tired face sat around a table, and on the clean table were five small glass bottles, which were filled with a light red liquid, which was the "gene potion" that Professor Qian had researched in the morning.
Looking at the eyes of Chu Tian and the others, Professor Qian coughed lightly and said calmly: "Due to the limitations of equipment and materials, the first batch only did so much, I just used a 10-fold diluted potion to experiment on 10 mice, 1 died, 3 were zombies, 5 were unknown, only 1 gained the ability to breathe fire, it seems that the success rate is not high, if you give me another ten days or so, I can improve this success rate, but you also have to provide me with better quality mutant beast blood." ”
Chu Tian smiled bitterly in his heart: Once this potion is discovered by others, he will not want to cooperate with the professor anymore, what he lacks most is time, as for better mutant beast blood, it is difficult to find, not to mention, it is not easy to catch above the second level, with his own joining, is there still only a ten percent success rate? Could it be providence?
