Chapter Twenty-Six: Signs of Evolution
Li Jian ran to the living room on the second floor, pulled back the curtains on the balcony, held up the newly looted high-powered telescope, and looked in the direction where he had just heard the gunshot.
It's just that in the residential area, the residential buildings are built one after another, and it is impossible to effectively see the panorama just by blocking the line of sight. Li Jian had to desperately look at the residential building in that direction, but in the end he found nothing. The only thing that can be determined is that the location where the gunshots came from should not be in their residential complex, but outside the community, at most across the road.
Thinking of this, his heart itched a little, and he couldn't wait to turn into a zombie and go out to investigate. But when there are gunshots, it means that people have guns in their hands, and if they shoot themselves, won't they ask for their own suffering? Besides, hearing the gunshots, Li Jian also remembered a person he hated to the core.
Cai Junjian.
He didn't know why he had a gun at that time, but his behavior of injuring the boss and planning to let them feed the zombies was enough for Li Jian to list him as the number one enemy. Not to mention that because of this, the boss, Ah Wei, and Liao Ming sacrificed one after another, leaving only one of them alone, surviving in this last days.
That's right, everything is Cai Junjian's fault!
Li Jian clenched his fists tightly, his teeth creaking, but he still couldn't calm the anger in his heart. In an upset, Li Jian could only rush into the bathroom and douse his whole body with cold water again to cool down his mind.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this way, half a month passed quietly.
If you count the date, it's already 2015, and it's close to February.
After entering the last days, it seems that even the climate has been suddenly disturbed, and it stands to reason that it should be considered winter now, but the temperature has been maintained at more than 20 degrees Celsius, and the humidity is not too low, even if it does not rain, it still maintains a relatively comfortable weather.
Li Jian still stays at home every day, transforms into a zombie during the day, scavenges for supplies in this residential community, and holds his legs alone at night, quietly falling asleep in his memories.
Said, it's been a good time.
In half a month, Li Jian fully searched for nearly half of the materials in the residential community, although all he looted were the residential units that had not been closed on the day of the incident, but the amount accumulated in the past half a month was still considerable. These materials are now placed at his home and stacked neatly.
As for the food alone, even if he stopped going out to scavenge from today, he would be able to last for a month and a half, and the tap water showed no signs of contamination at present, which was a great blessing in misfortune.
It's just that in the past half a month, he has never heard any gunshots, and there is still no sign of other survivors in this residential community. Even, yesterday he deliberately transformed into a zombie, went to the place where the gunshots were heard before, and saw nothing except for a zombie who was shot in the head. Bloodstains, bones, and minced meat all seem to have been there for a while, and they are definitely not left over from half a month ago, so there should have been no bloody massacres here.
Seeing this, it proves that those who had guns at the beginning just happened to pass by, and Li Jian didn't think about it anymore.
It's just that, in addition to this, in the past half a month, Li Jian has also found a very serious problem.
At this moment, he had emptied one of his guest rooms to store his loot.
Caucus.
On a large enough table in the guest room, there were nearly forty corpse cores at the moment, and Li Jian also arranged them according to the different killing periods.
The original corpse nuclei were still in the same gray gelatinous posture, but as the period passed, the corpse nuclei in the back slowly became more and more viscous, as if they were beginning to solidify, until yesterday, the three zombies that Li Jian had just killed, their corpse cores almost became solid!
The shape of the core is gradually fixed in a smooth oval shape, and as for the color, it is still the same as always, a clear and flawless gray.
The core of the zombie, which is the core of the zombie, has such a change, which means that the zombie itself will also change. Sure enough, Li Jian killed so many zombies one after another, in addition to perceiving that with each kill, more and more unknown things flowed into his body from the zombie's brain, and the difficulty of killing was gradually increasing!
This is a terrible sign!
Before, Li Jian simply raised his knife and killed the zombies with one blow, and he did it neatly and with almost no effort. But now, the zombie's strength, and speed, have obviously increased. According to Li Jian's various experiments, it is recorded in the zombie notes that until yesterday, the average strength coefficient of zombies was about 1.85 times that of humans, and the speed was 1.23 times that of human walking.
What's more, what makes Li Jian even more disturbing is that the flesh that originally belonged to zombies, which originally belonged to zombies, had a high penetration surname because of decay, but the penetration surname had declined!
This is not just because of the need to pierce through the almost solid core, but because the skin of the zombies, and even the bones that should have rotted away, are actually increasing, so that when it comes to killing, the resistance is greatly increased.
Although Li Jian is now able to be "invisible" in the eyes of zombies by transforming into a zombie, it takes more effort to kill a zombie, and he can no longer kill it almost effortlessly as before.
Even with this ability to defy the sky, the situation of the other survivors can be imagined.
Looking at the corpse core on the table, which had changed in shape as time grew, Li Jian's expression became solemn.
"The ability of zombies has been improved in all aspects, and the difficulty of killing is gradually increasing, is this an evolution?"
And the changes in the morphology of these corpse nuclei are signs of evolution, which is almost a conclusion.
Li Jian shook his head and removed a trace of worry in his heart, even if the zombies really showed signs of evolution, he was powerless to change anything, or in other words, from the very beginning, he who had obtained the ability to transform into zombies already had too many advantages over others.
In order to better hide people's eyes, Li Jian changed the clothes he used to go out into more shabby ones, and at this moment, with the change of his flesh and bones, his body was constantly rotting, and he once again activated the ability to transform into a zombie.
This is his first transformation today.
It was 10:05 a.m., and he had to get back here by 11:05.
"Today, let's clean up the C residential building on the other side of the south gate, and by the way, take a look at the situation outside the south gate, I remember, there seems to be a commissary over there."
Li Jian muttered, locked the door with the key, and walked down the stairs.
