Chapter Twenty-Six: Questioning
The noise around suddenly fell silent, this old man was the chief of the entire laboratory, and he was very authoritative.
The white-haired old man couldn't hold back his excitement, and with his old wrinkled right hand, he carefully took out a small and delicate glass bottle from his coat pocket, filled it with an unknown liquid, and in the middle of the liquid there was an angular crystal floating up and down. The crystals are not crystal clear, but are wrapped in hair-like threads and wriggle and entangled, as if they were living creatures.
"What is this?" The researcher near the white-haired old man's right hand took off his black-rimmed glasses and wiped them vigorously, and after putting them on, he stared at the crystal tightly, as if he had caught something, but as if he was in a fog, and asked with a puzzled face.
Some of the people in the surrounding crowd thought of the blood of the walking corpse observed under the microscope, as if there were similar structures inside.
"This is material taken from the brains of the walking corpses, which I call the nucleus." The white-haired old man said slowly, "In the past few days, I have dissected large and small walking corpses, but I have not found this kind of substance. But among the corpses of the walking corpses sent last night, a corpse nucleus was accidentally found! Of course, this cannot be said to be an accident, because in other corpses, the nucleus was also found, so it is said that there is a pattern to follow. ”
"According to my speculation, it is very likely that the virus caused the brain mutation of the walking corpse, and through analysis, the concentration of the virus in it is amazingly high, and it is very worthy of our research efforts!"
Shen Lei nodded slightly without showing a trace, what the white-haired old man said was indeed true, there is no corpse nucleus in the brain of the walking corpse that has just been infected, and the virus will only be produced when it gradually stabilizes in the corpse, and the size of the corpse nucleus, the concentration of the virus and the strength of the walking corpse have a lot to do with it.
In the previous life, corpse cores and food have become the hard currency of human beings, because its greatest function is to improve its strength. It's a bit scary, but it's a good thing.
The infection after being scratched and bitten by an ordinary walking corpse does not have much effect, it will only disrupt the balance of the body, and the alienation into a walking corpse, and the chance of death after ingesting a high concentration of corpse nuclei greatly increases, and the possibility of successful reinforcement also increases.
The corpse nucleus can not only be taken directly, but also processed into a potion, and the research institute of the Tianshui League has this strength, diluting the high-concentration virus extracted from the corpse nucleus 10,000 times to obtain a relatively safe potion.
But opportunities and dangers coexist, and what you get comes something else.
The danger of taking it directly is unimaginable, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as nine deaths.
However, there are many people who are hungry without food, and there are many people who dare to risk their lives.
When people are tortured to a certain extent, they have already seen through life and death.
Shen Lei also took it, at that time, he was stuck in the fourth-level enhancement for a long time and did not break through, so he took the risk to try the improved potion, and the pain and danger in it were really inhuman torture.
"Yao Lao has made a great contribution!" Crisp applause came from the other direction, and Shen Lei fixed his eyes to see that it was Lin Duyun's old guy. I saw him wearing a dark green military uniform, walking towards the center of the hall with a smile on his face.
"Don't dare, don't dare to ......" Yao Lao hurriedly waved his hand, he knew what Lin Duyun's methods were, if it wasn't for the sake of getting that piece of food to survive, and at the same time in order to find out the secret of the virus, he wouldn't deal with this kind of person at all. There is no doubt that Lin Duyun was a respectable soldier during the war years, who was born and died for the country, but now it may be said.
"Yao Lao doesn't have to be modest, in the field of virus research, you are everyone, and the research work of the base in the future needs to rely on you more!" Lin Duyun said polite words, but his eyes caught a glimpse of Shen Lei standing at the entrance, his body suddenly burst, and the smile on his face became even bigger. Sure enough, I am the person I am optimistic about, such a serious injury is fine now, and I can actually get out of bed and walk! Lin Duyun also knew his physical condition, whether it was strength or resilience, he was several times stronger than before, but he was not as perverted as this young man.
Shen Lei saw his appearance, and wanted to laugh a little in his heart, isn't it just for the crazy vines, why are you so nervous, there are more good things in the space of Lao Tzu's supermarket that have not been taken out, and I must not scare you to death when the time comes!
Lin Duyun nodded at the scar man, then turned to leave.
"Let's go." The scar man led Shen Lei to the door of a room, pushed the door in, and more than a dozen people sat around a large black round table, most of them were wearing military uniforms without military ranks, they were not good people at first glance, and the formation was quite large, and it was estimated that they planned to give Shen Lei a dismount first.
"It's all here!" It seems that they are holding some kind of secret meeting, Shen Lei was not timid, and found a chair to sit down with a smile: "Say, what are you looking for me?" ”
Seeing Shen Lei's relaxed expression, everyone was a little stunned, with such a serious gunshot wound, is his kid's body made of iron? And by observing Shen Lei's behavior, there is no nervousness at all, is it the son of a powerful family before the end of the world? Otherwise, how could he be so calm, it seems that it will definitely not be easy to pry something out of his mouth smoothly.
"It's okay, little brother Shen is skilled, with great righteousness, he dared to rush out of the city gate last night to save people, which makes me deeply ashamed, as the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Province, I didn't protect the people, I can't compare with you!" It seems that Lin Duyun doesn't want to make a ruthless move first, if he can take down Shen Lei with emotion and reason, it would be the best.
"I'm not that capable, but I can't get over it when I see my compatriots in dire straits." Shen Lei kicked the ball back to Lin Duyun.
The only man who looked a little scholarly among the dozen or so people on the other side got up and muttered softly in Lin Duyun's ear, and Shen Lei could think with his toes that he must be discussing some bad idea.
"Brother Lin, this kid is not easy to deal with, if you continue to play Tai Chi with him, you can't ask anything, you still have to be direct."
Lin Duyun remained silent and turned his gaze to Shen Lei again.
"That's the case, does last night's vine monster have anything to do with Little Brother Shen?" Lin Duyun asked.
"How is it possible, I've never seen that monster before!" Shen Lei resolutely denied that when he was forced to ask, he must not fall into the rhythm of the other party, and he must disrupt their plan to have a chance of winning.
Lin Duyun was not angry, and continued: "But according to our investigation, someone has seen this kind of thing, and at that time, Shen Lei, you were also at the scene, it was nothing to encounter it once, and you were touched twice, so I have to wonder, how did you get those monsters to the battlefield?" ”
"It seems that you have done a good job, and you won't believe me when I say anything?" Shen Lei asked rhetorically.
Bang!
A man with a full face and beard on the seat couldn't hold back the anger, and slapped the table and shouted: "Shen Lei, you don't want to toast or eat and drink, please come here to let you contribute to the base, not to chat with you!" ”
"How can I have such great ability, it should be your chiefs and chiefs who contribute to the base, I am just an ordinary college student, I don't know anything, I don't know anything." Shen Lei put on an innocent expression and continued: "If there is nothing else, I will leave first, and my friends are still waiting for me to eat!" ”
"You dare!" At this time, Lin Duyun was also a little breathless, and said in his heart that this kid was really like soap stained with water, and he couldn't catch it.
"Chief Lin, don't get so angry, be careful of hurting your body, after all, ......" Shen Lei said in a deep voice: "You are not too young, and your son is like this." ”
also especially accentuated the tone on the word "such", the clay people have three points of anger, really when I Shen Lei is a vegetarian, I can come to this base if I want, I can leave if I want, who can stop me!
When he got up and was about to leave, Lin Duyun's voice came from behind, "You're gone, I don't know if your friend can leave, and that girl named Mo Xiaoqin looks ......"
Lin Duyun didn't say anything more, because Shen Lei had already turned around.
"What did you do to them!" Shen Lei will never allow anyone to hurt his brothers and friends, even if he fights hard, and he still has a backhand, it's a big deal to exchange something from the supermarket space on credit. Let's see who's better!
"Don't worry, I don't have a good heart, I just invited them to my house as a guest." Lin Duyun saw Shen Lei's shocked appearance and was already sure that this move was right, and sure enough, the family card was the best card in his hand.
"It's just that if you're gone, I can't guarantee what will happen to them." Lin Duyun looked at Shen Lei with a smile, but that smile was full of threat.
Can the gun leave the young man in front of him? Lin Duyun didn't think about it, but he is not an ordinary person, he has also read some top-secret information, it is not difficult for some skilled martial artists to dodge ordinary bullets, and it is difficult to guarantee whether Shen Lei's strength has reached that realm, after all, he has personally experienced the results of ** strengthening, which is almost worth more than ten years or even decades of training.
People like him, everything must be prepared with both hands, and eggs will not be put in the same basket, he has already sent someone to "invite" Shen Lei's companions to his home, under the pretext that the treat is actually under house arrest, just waiting for this negotiation with Shen Lei now!
"I have to say, your meanness is beyond my expectations." Shen Lei couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart, if he found the boss as soon as possible after the operation, he might be able to escape through the chaos, how could he be in a dilemma now.
Lin Duyun's invisible hand was already tightly clenched on his fatal throat, and once the worst situation appeared, Lin Duyun would not be merciful even a little bit.
Even Shen Lei has countless ways to torture people in his memory, not to mention this big man in the army, those methods can definitely teach people to survive but not to die, in his hands, death may be a relief.
"Thank you for the compliment. To be honest, when I was your age, I didn't have the skills you did. Lin Duyun saw that he was about to get what he wanted, and his tone was not as aggressive as before, and he also "praised" Shen Lei. In fact, at the beginning, he planned to recruit Shen Lei, if this incident did not happen, it is very likely that there would be one more fierce general under his command.
But he wanted something to deter more than his subordinates.
Shen Lei didn't want to talk nonsense anymore. Straight to the end of this boring and disgusting topic: "Honestly, I named the stuff you said Crazy Vines. Everyone nodded, it was indeed very crazy, killing thousands of walking corpses in an instant, if there were enough of them, it would be possible to regain the survival area from the hands of the walking corpses.
"It's just that I'm gone, and I didn't use it last night."
Seeing that everyone was about to have another seizure, he slowly continued: "But I know where it is. ”
"Where?"
"Tianshui City!"
"Tianshui City?" Lin Duyun looked at Shen Lei suspiciously, trying to distinguish the truth from falsehood of this sentence, but the other party's face was very calm, and he couldn't see any horses.
"That's it!" Shen Lei said categorically.
"How could it be Tianshui City, I've been there for so many years, and I've never found anyone studying such a terrible thing." Only then did Shen Lei find out that the middle-aged man with a big belly sitting in the corner turned out to be the mayor of Tianshui City, and he could often be seen on TV.
"Why can't it be! Just because you didn't have it before doesn't mean you don't know it now, and just because you don't know it doesn't mean that others don't know either. Shen Lei glanced at this person, and sneered before saying: "I guess you also know where I came from, and you also know that almost all creatures have undergone all kinds of incredible changes now, such as your body, and for example, the walking corpse that wanders outside and occupies most of the world......"
"Okay, I'll send someone to Tianshui tomorrow." Lin Duyun believed Shen Lei's words for the time being, since the "hostage" was in his hands, he was not afraid that he would escape, and glanced at Shen Lei deeply: "I believe you know very well what will happen to deceiving me." ”
"Of course!";
