Zhang Mingren's home was very simple, and the two entered the living room on the first floor, and although it was pitch black, Wang Rong quickly found the sofa.

Zhang Mingren took out a cigarette from his arms, lit one, and threw it to Wang Rong along with the cigarette case lighter.

Wang Rong also took out a cigarette and lit the fire, his eyes still firmly locked on Zhang Mingren.

"You look a lot like my son. He's dead......" Zhang Mingren paused and continued: "Seeing you is like seeing him." Although I don't know where you came from, in this apocalyptic world, humans are always much better than mutant beasts. If you don't want to kill me, it means that you are not an innocent person. Besides, I'm very curious about the data you just strengthened! ”

Of course, Wang Rong was also full of curiosity, and he shook the ashes of his cigarette: "What can you tell me?" ”

Zhang Mingren smiled: "This story is a bit long. I came here and learned a little bit about it. ”

"Before the outbreak of nuclear war, there were scientists who were dedicated to the study of human evolution. After the outbreak of nuclear war, these scientists from various countries got together to deal with this apocalyptic earth. It has been suggested that the world has reached a point where it can no longer afford to resist the attack of weapons of mass destruction. But the mutant beasts are getting stronger and stronger. ”

"According to the laws of evolution, in order to adapt to the end of the world, mutant beasts will become smarter and even increase their IQ. Then Earth becomes a place where survivors and mutants compete. If you want to destroy the mutant beasts, you can't count on weapons, so you can count on the power of the human self. In fact, in the years of human history, there has been no obvious evolution, but the level of science and technology has been constantly improved, and its own abilities are still no different from those in the past. ”

"For example, a child thousands of years ago, who traveled back in time to before the nuclear war, went to school, went to university, went to work, got married, and had children, he would not be any different from other people."

"So, their goal is to make humanity strong quickly. Therefore, the human genes are repaired, hoping to produce a new human with extremely strong personal abilities. The process is very brutal. First they need a large number of embryos, then the genes are corrected, and then the embryos are born through the mother's body. Basically, the probability of birth is 1 in a thousand. ”

"Then, when the children reach a certain age, they are reinforced. Enhancement consists of four basic elements - intelligence, physical strength, endurance, eyesight, and an unknown ability. Your enhancement, without being completed, is already the highest in all these years. However, intelligence, physical strength, endurance, and eyesight are just the basics. That unknown ability is the real power. This has also led to the different directions of development of the three regions. ”

Wang Rong asked curiously, "Didn't these scientists get together?" Why is there a difference in the direction of development? ”

Zhang Mingren put out the cigarette butt that was about to finish smoking, and extinguished it in the ashtray on the coffee table with his usual feel, and said lightly: "They originally had different directions of research and development, originally there was a very authoritative figure in this field under the leadership, and then I don't know why, that authority disappeared, so they naturally parted ways." ”

"The three major districts now represent three development directions. What everyone has in common is basic strengthening. ”

"After the completion of the basic strengthening of the Eastern Region, it took the route of personal force improvement. That unknown ability is that the human body can do the opposite in a harsh environment, absorb the energy after the nuclear war, store it in the body, and use various martial arts to display it. ”

Wang Rong's face froze, and he suddenly recalled that the gendarme who was invulnerable and fast as lightning, if he hadn't seen the QR code behind his head, he would not have fallen into his hands.

"If you've watched pre-nuclear fiction on TV, you can understand that it's a very domineering kind of true qi. If it is low, it is internal strength, and if it is high, no one knows what the end of development will be. However, the squad leaders of the gendarmerie can easily kill mutant beasts with a single move, which is commonplace. It would not be a problem to blow a simulated target with a load of 3,000 kg with one punch. The ability of the captain, it is said that in last year's beast tide, several captains were like wolves and tigers, directly slaughtering tens of thousands of mutant beasts. As for the higher-level figures, I don't know what they can do. ”

Zhang Mingren fumbled in the coffee table drawer for a while, took out a small DV, opened it, and inside was the drill of the gendarmerie. Wang Rong watched intently, as if they were practicing boxing, but the posture was very weird......

"Every embryo that can be born has a set of codes at the back of the head, and as the basic reinforcement is completed, this set of codes disappears. However, the current headache in the Eastern Region is that these gendarmes have extremely excellent combat effectiveness after being strengthened, but as the years go by, their true qi will continue to decline, until they finally become ordinary people. ”

Wang Rong subconsciously touched the back of his head, there should be no QR code.

"The Western Region is different, they are staunch advocates of machinery. Before the nuclear war, if you pay attention to the military news, you should find that the army at that time has begun to be equipped with mechanical exoskeletons. Some weapons are too heavy and wieldy to use alone, but with a mechanical exoskeleton, you can use the power of a machine to accomplish tasks that were previously impossible. By the time of the nuclear war, they made mechs. With a height of 5 meters, a reinforced soldier can control it alone and complete the tasks of mechanical weapons such as armored vehicles and tanks. The powerful firepower also makes them invincible to mutant beasts. However, the difficulty for them is that wielding mechs also requires very strong basic abilities, and their soldiers will gradually degrade to the point where they cannot defeat mutants with the power of mechs. ”

"As for the Northern Region, I don't know what their research direction is for the time being. That group of people is so mysterious that it is said that in the war against the mutant beasts, their losses are minimal, and the results are not small. ”

Wang Rong gradually understood what was going on in these three districts.

He couldn't help but ask, "Those women who were brought to the capital usually don't have accidents, right?" ”

Zhang Mingren shook his head: "How to say it, in fact, their task is to give birth to children, but now is not ancient times, and people's thoughts are very free." I want to have a child naturally, and if you concentrate like this, you don't know whose child it is, and you are just a surrogacy tool, so you will naturally be opposed by the vast majority of people. If they knew that there were only embryos in the Eastern Region to cultivate genetic warriors, they would be even more opposed. The most important thing is that as I have said before, the survival rate of embryos is one in a thousand, and in this simple process of childbirth, a large number of pregnant women of appropriate age will also die due to various problems. That's why almost no pregnant women alive in the four outer city guards were able to go back. ”

Wang Rong smiled: "Of course I will object, but after I accept the reinforcement, it will be difficult for my body to adapt for a while." In the meantime, I'm going to hide from you, and try the gendarmerie practice to see what kind of changes I can make to my body. ”

Zhang Mingren smiled and said, "No problem! ”

For a short time, Wang Rong could not leave Zhang Mingren's residence. It's also very safe, and there is no gendarmerie to search it. Zhang Mingren is indeed as he said, perfectly covering Wang Rong's whereabouts.

In comparison, Su Qing's side is relatively much safer. After entering the capital, this group of women first underwent a physical examination. For example, if some constitutions cannot be conceived at all, or if they have some serious genetic diseases, even the embryos that have been processed cannot be stopped, these women will be excluded.

Of course, in order to prevent them from leaking the news, these excluded women will also enter a specific area for treatment, and wait until their bodies can receive a complete embryo conception before being released. This is also the reason why the women of the city guard were sent to the capital and no one was seen back.

Zhang Mingren commutes to and from work at the research center as usual, and brings the latest information to Wang Rong every day.

Five days have passed, Zhang Mingren, who came back from work on the sixth day, had a somewhat ugly face, pushed open the door, and saw Wang Rong resting, Zhang Mingren hesitated for a moment, but still said: "The women who are going to give birth to embryos have been screened, and if everything is normal, they will enter the research center tomorrow and be implanted with embryos respectively." ”

Wang Rong nodded, and the clock pointed to 6:15 p.m. It will soon be dark, and as a teenager who has lived on an isolated island for so many years, Wang Rong is very patient. He changed into a convenient gym suit, removed the handle of the fruit knife in the kitchen, sharpened it, and placed it securely against his calf.

Weapons, there are definitely no weapons here, but the fruit knife without a handle, when necessary, can be thrown out as a flying knife, with Wang Rong's strength and eyesight, the power is not inferior to a bullet.

In the past few days of intensive exercise, Wang Rong has felt that his physical fitness has grown in a wide range, in terms of strength alone, needless to say, the abstract words of cracking tigers and leopards are needless to say, and the weight of a single punch he has measured has exceeded 1000 kilograms. Before the war, the most famous boxer weighed only 800 kilograms.

Sweat gradually oozed from Zhang Mingren's forehead: "You shouldn't be attacking the place where those women are stationed, right?" ”

Wang Rong shook his head and said, "No, I'm just going in and having a look." ”

Zhang Mingren breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably: "In the west of the capital, Building 19 is where they are stationed. There are three gendarmerie squads responsible for guarding. The first team is responsible for guarding the perimeter and preventing people from escaping. The second team patrolled the building. You should know how powerful those gendarmes are. As long as you alarm one person, dozens of people will immediately come after you. The third squad is stationed on a floor-by-floor basis, with one person per floor. They usually rarely use heavy firearms, but this time because one gendarme was killed, the capital required each gendarme to bring a single weapon just in case. ”

Regarding the establishment of the gendarmerie, Wang Rong knew very well in his heart. Ten gendarmes are a squad, three squads form a squadron, and two squadrons make up a brigade. Each city guard was garrisoned by a gendarmerie brigade. These sixty people can already control the city guards with a population of up to millions, so you can imagine how powerful these people are.

Recalling the process of fighting with the gendarme, Wang Rong was still a little shocked, the young gendarme had the upper hand in hand-to-hand combat, but the QR code behind his head saved his life.

These QR codes are also interesting because they were originally planted in the back of the brains of newborn genetically modified embryos to prevent fish from getting mixed up. When a reserve gendarme is reinforced, the QR codes disappear. However, as a gendarme's abilities gradually deteriorate, they will emerge and deepen little by little, and when they return to their original color, the gendarme will be almost exactly like an ordinary person.

Wang Rong touched the back of his head, there was nothing here, and this time he put on a gendarmerie uniform, so he would not be considered a reserve gendarme.

Zhang Mingren spread out his laptop on the coffee table and brought up a few pictures: "Here is the spatial layout of Building 19. I've been watching for a long time when I'm in the office, and there's only one way you can get in. It is the ventilation system of the floor. ”

"First of all, you have to avoid the eyes of the peripheral gendarmes and enter the outer crossing of the system. The squad leader of the second team is a little lazy, and his patrols will not be very frequent. Ten gendarmes will patrol the floor alone, and once you enter the floor, quickly take out one of them, remembering, don't fight for a long time, it will expose you. Once you've finished him, change into a gendarmerie uniform and start patrolling with your head down, looking for the target you're looking for. ”

"The patrol time on each floor is 10 minutes. The order of patrols is from bottom to top. You must not be wrong about this time difference, and if you are wrong, you will die. ”

Zhang Mingren sighed: "Why do I think this is an impossible task? ”
