Chapter Seventy-Five: Finding the Cause

But the air is not safe, Lu Chen has not forgotten, the incident that just entered the mission world when a large swarm of crows appeared, he would rather spend a little more effort to avoid the attack below, Lu Chen did not dare to raise the height too high.

Lu Chen in the air relied on magnetic power to control the way, although some mental power was consumed, but the speed was still very good, although it was not as fast as the contractor who specialized in flying, but it was still much stronger than the zombies on the ground, and it took only ten minutes for Lu Chen to get rid of the pursuit of the zombies.

At the same time, when the pressure was slightly reduced, Lu Chen contacted the iron man through the communicator, and he already knew their location, so he didn't need Lu Chen to look for it anymore, and flew over along the route.

It was only this time that they flew for half an hour and left the town far away, and Lu Chen saw their figures, it seemed that so many zombies just now made them a little scared, and they didn't dare to get too close.

At this time, they were all waiting in place, and when they saw Lu Chen coming, they all stood up one after another, came to Lu Chen, and welcomed Lu Chen's arrival.

"It's good that you're okay, sir." The happiest of everyone is undoubtedly Vivian, her strength is not too strong, she can survive completely by relying on Lu Chen, if Lu Chen dies, it will definitely be a huge blow to her.

Then there was Oak, knowing Lu Chen's relationship with Dragonfly, he didn't want Lu Chen to die, but Dragonfly only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Lu Chen, and didn't say too much, she didn't know Lu Chen's identity after all.

Except for a few people who were close to Lu Chen, Iron Man and Hawkeye were also relieved, Lu Chen was their hope for survival, and they didn't want Lu Chen to have an accident, at least not now.

"Don't worry. I dare to stay, and I am confident enough to cope with them. After saying this, Lu Chen paused, didn't blame him, and asked directly: "What do you think of the sudden increase in mutant zombies this time." ”

"Mutant zombies? Mr. I think it's dangerous out there right now, we can't continue hunting, and it's only right to go back to defend the base and survive the mission. ”

As Lu Chen expected, the iron man still chose to seek stability, not wanting to explore the truth, wanting to defend the base, and focusing on this task.

This is also the practice of most contractors, who are too greedy. The contractors who don't know how to look at the situation are dead.

If he didn't know that zombies could enhance the evolution speed of the ring, Lu Chen would do the same, but at this moment, Lu Chen couldn't give up, of course, using strength to force them was the worst thing to do, Lu Chen wouldn't do that.

After thinking about it, Lu Chen spoke: "Even if you go back to the base." We also need to figure out the situation. ”

Seeing what the iron man wanted to say, Lu Chen spoke first: "Don't say that we have a potion in our hands. To make zombies jealous, our base is just a branch of the umbrella company, there are potions that make zombies afraid, it is difficult to say that there are no potions to attract zombies in the umbrella company, so this matter must be solved. ”

Lu Chen's words made the iron man who wanted to say something suffocated, and what Lu Chen said made a lot of sense. He didn't refute either.

"What other reason can there be, the space is too easy for us to brush the survival point, which increases the difficulty." Only Snow Maiden can say that.

Her words made Lu Chen shake his head: "The difficulty of increasing the space will not be so direct, there must be a reason, just like our strength." Entering this Resident Evil world, in order to increase the difficulty for us, the zombies have undergone nuclear radiation. ”

"We don't want to survive in the city, so we ran directly to the wild, and the space is not to let zombies appear in the wild against common sense, but to use mutated beasts in the wild to test us with the umbrella company, which is all connected, and there is definitely a reason for the increase in mutant zombies this time."

Lu Chen's words made the contractors ponder, the space really wouldn't destroy the mission world like this, but what kind of reason, they couldn't think of it after thinking about it for a long time, and finally the iron man put forward an opinion.

"Could it be that there is a spiritual zombie mutation in that town, it can control the actions of the mutant zombies, when we entered before, it didn't make a move, this time we killed too much, it couldn't help but make a move."

"Impossible, there really is such a spiritual zombie, it will definitely not attack immediately, but will wait until we enter the town to besiege and kill, although there are many mutant zombies, but there is not much cooperation between each other's actions."

Most creatures will have a leader, and it is not surprising that a control type has mutated in the zombie group, but Lu Chen thought about it and still denied this opinion.

"It's possible that something good suddenly appears in the city, and it can mutate most zombies in an instant." When she said this, Snow Maiden's eyes lit up a little.

This may not be said to be none, but the odds are too small.

"Sir, do you think this will be the hand and foot of the Umbrella Company, they should have the ability to make zombies mutate." This was said by Hawkeye, and this reason is the most reasonable of all.

It's just: "The umbrella company will come over in three days, it's unlikely now." ”

"It's a large force that has come over in three days, and it is very likely that some of them have some research teams operating outside, and at this time, they received news from the main base and came to find fault with us."

These words made Lu Chen ponder, if this is the case, Lu Chen must go and clean them up, and at the same time, they can also clean up the zombies with confidence.

But reason told Lu Chen that this reason was still a bit far-fetched, and Lu Chen was also a little entangled at this time, he didn't want to give up the opportunity to upgrade the ring, but let too many contractors consume their strength here, or even die in battle, not to mention that Iron Man and Hawkeye disagreed, and even Lu Chen himself didn't want such a thing to happen.

While Lu Chen was frowning and thinking, the dragonfly's voice suddenly sounded a little weakly: "I don't know if you have noticed, the second time we passed, there were no zombie corpses on the ground, and the zombie corpses we killed for the first time were gone." ”

Dragonfly's words made Lu Chen's eyes light up violently.

Glancing at the dragonfly in surprise, Lu Chen smiled at her: "Thank you, I understand." ”

Lu Chen's thanks made Dragonfly a little overwhelmed, and the other contractors were more concerned about Lu Chen's words later.

"You see, sir has found the reason for the increase in mutant zombies." The iron man, who was thinking as hard as Lu Chen, hurriedly asked.

"Well, I found it, and I would like to thank Dragonfly if it weren't for her. It's going to bother me for a long time this time, and you can take more of it this time. ”

Dragonfly solved the problem in Lu Chen's heart this time, and more importantly, Dragonfly was his sister, so Lu Chen was rare and generous, and let her choose more things.

"Sir is gracious. It's my job to play for the team. ”

Dragonfly was still polite, but the Iron Man and the others already wanted to know what the reason was.

"I don't know, can you tell us what the reason is."

"Of course it's no problem, speaking of which, we were careless for the first time." When he said this, Lu Chen's tone became serious: "This thing actually happened to us. ”

"On us." Lu Chen's words made them more and more puzzled.

"Yes, the reason for the sudden increase in mutant zombies in us is very simple. Do you remember the zombie corpses we left on the ground during the first hunt, as the dragonfly said, the second time it passed, those zombie corpses were gone, where do you think they went? Speaking of this, Lu Chen asked rhetorically.

Iron men, they are not stupid, they associate with the front and back. It's all reflected.

"Sir, I mean that those corpses are eaten by zombies, and the corpses of dead companions are eaten. Some of the zombies mutated into mutated zombies. ”

"Yes, only this answer can explain the reason for the sudden increase in mutant zombies, those zombies can devour their companions to enhance their bodies, and high-level zombies have evolved from low-level zombies."

"If zombies are able to devour their companions to enhance their bodies, why don't they kill each other all the time?" Tie Man also accepted Lu Chen's explanation, but he also couldn't figure it out.

But this is not something that Lu Chen can explain.

"Maybe there's something else." By the way, fooled around. Lu Chen changed the topic: "Now that we have found the reason, let's figure out how to solve this problem." ”

Lu Chen didn't want to leave yet, as long as he could find a way to stop the increase in mutant zombies, Lu Chen would be able to take them to continue hunting.

This time the iron man did not object again, and frowned and thought hard.

They also tasted the sweetness just now. Being able to get a large number of survival points, they don't care at all, just let Lu Chen go back, they just feel that the gains and efforts outweigh the losses, if they can really find a way to stop the increase of mutant zombies, they also want to continue to increase survival points.

There are many ways to make zombies unable to devour the corpses of their companions grow, and soon, Snow Maiden spoke.

"I can seal the corpse with ice, or freeze it to stop the zombie from devouring it."

The method that the Snow Girl said is indeed possible, but the consumption is too great, and there are not a few zombies that Lu Chen and they want to hunt, and when they get to the back, the Snow Girl can't take care of it at all.

Lu Chen can also think of a way to stop the zombies, that is, bury all the corpses with soil, but in doing so, the consumption of Lu Chen is also a bit large, although he has a lot of spiritual power, but he can't hold on to it if he keeps using it like this.

After discussing for a while, Lu Chen and the others found that it was the easiest way to burn the corpses of zombies with gasoline, so that they could kill zombies without wasting the physical strength and strength of the contractor.

But this method requires a lot of gasoline, and the little gasoline in the vehicle outside is not enough for Lu Chen and them to use.

"We can find a gas station and use oil trucks to carry gasoline to fight, so that we are not afraid of zombie mutations."

The iron man's method was very decent, but Lu Chen couldn't bear it, in that case, they would have to waste a lot of time on the road, the speed of killing zombies would be greatly reduced, and the speed at which Lu Chen collected grievances would also be reduced.

After pondering for a long time, when the other contractors agreed with the iron man's opinion, Lu Chen spoke firmly: "Let's go into the city." ”

"Entering the city, no, absolutely not, the danger in the city is not comparable to the outside." When Tieren contacted Guo Jia, he knew that Lu Chen came out to hunt zombies this time not simply to survive, but also for other purposes.

As for the purpose, the iron man didn't know, and he didn't ask, each contractor has his own secrets, and if he is not close, it is possible to make enemies if he asks rashly.

However, it was precisely because he felt Lu Chen's strangeness, even if the iron man felt the danger and trouble, and did not want to continue hunting, he did not insist on returning to the base, but proposed a safe method to fight back and forth, this plan He also knew that killing zombies was too slow, but at least he also gave Lu Chen an explanation, of course, the iron man was ready for Lu Chen's opposition.

But he didn't expect Lu Chen to play his cards so unreasonably, and he would put forward the taboo of entering the city, but they have always avoided entering the city, Lu Chen They hunt zombies so easily, and their strength is only part of the reason, even a small part of the reason.

They relied more on mobility so smoothly, outside the city, they could retreat at any time, and a large group of mutated zombies attacked just now, and they didn't suffer much loss when they retreated early.

But everything is different when they enter the city, not to mention the zombies in the city, Lu Chen and they will also be surrounded by zombies, it is almost impossible to get out easily, in the case of a large number of mutated zombies in the city, Lu Chen and they will definitely die when they enter the city to fight.

If you don't want to die, you have to use potions, but if you use too many potions, it may make the tank appear, and it will be more difficult to deal with at that time, so Lu Chen and they have been avoiding entering the city to fight, at this moment, Lu Chen brought it up like this, and the iron man thought that Lu Chen had gone crazy.

The iron man didn't expect Lu Chen to make such a request, but Lu Chen had already known the iron man's reaction, and he had already dealt with it.

"This time is really dangerous, if you don't want to go, I won't be reluctant, I can help defend the base."

Lu Chen already had the idea of splitting the way, the A-level props were indeed precious, but it was only unknown whether they could get them, and the B-level props paid by the contractor team, Lu Chen had already gotten it.

Whether it was the eyes, the black robe, or the magic book and the magic crystal, it was of great help to Lu Chen, so Lu Chen didn't want to die too many people here.

Splitting is the best choice, Lu Chen went to fight alone, and if he succeeded, Lu Chen could get A-level props, but if he couldn't succeed, he didn't need to die, this was already the best choice.

Lu Chen's answer made the iron man silent, he didn't propose to leave immediately, he was not stupid, he knew one thing, if Lu Chen was missing in the final battle, even if they escaped at this moment, they might not be able to survive.

As if seeing the iron man's worries, Lu Chen continued: "Don't worry, I dare to go to the town, I'm still a little sure, don't forget, I'm a high-level contractor." (To be continued.) )
