"Terrible question?"

Zheng Yuanqing couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and then asked in a condensed voice;

"Yes......" Yue Hong huddled his knees in the corner, staring at the moonlight under his feet, and whispered: "I have been to this town several times, and each time I have found that the size of the corpse group is expanding exponentially, and now the scale is at least nearly a hundred times that of the first time I came; So ......"

"I guess there's probably something in the center of town, the place with the highest concentration of corpses, that is attracting zombies;"

It is indeed possible;

Zheng Yuanqing nodded slightly when he heard this, he clearly remembered that when he was about to seize the cash box a few days ago, he had encountered a similar scene, that is, the zombie that was about to undergo a secondary mutation;

The evolution of zombies, like humans, also has to go through genetic mutations again and again to evolve, and they are also the weakest in the process of evolution; Therefore, whenever a zombie wants to carry out a secondary mutation, it will attract companions to protect it; Moreover, Zheng Yuanqing heard that when the higher the level of zombies, the more protectors they recruited, and the higher the level;

"Could it be that there are theoretically high-level zombies in here?" Zheng Yuanqing frowned and looked at the center of the town like a Senluo ghost hall, and said worriedly;

"Unlikely, so far the fourth-level zombies have only existed in legends;" Yue Hong shook his head and said;

"If there are really high-level zombies above level 3 here, it is impossible that there will be no movement around here; Not to mention anything else, just for the crystal nucleus of high-level zombies, there should be at least three or more military captains and their subordinates stationed in this vicinity, but now no one knows about it except us; ”

"Lieutenant? Lieutenants in the army? Zheng Yuanqing quickly captured a key word that made his heart flutter;

"It's not;" Yue Hong shook his head again and said:

"Captain, it's a power hierarchy above the Awakened, I've only heard of it......"

From Yue Hong's words, Zheng Yuanqing knew that the recognized power system of the Awakened and the genetic system determined by the Mentor through science were not the same;

The initial stage of this power system is also the Awakened, which is divided into nine levels;

And above the Awakened, there is the "Captain";

Yue Hong didn't know exactly how to divide the lieutenants, he only knew that the recognized system of awakened people was to take care of the illiterate awakened and use the well-known military ranks to divide them;

"Taking care of ......"

Zheng Yuanqing heard a key word that made him frown again, he knew very well that education had been popularized in China for many years before the end of the world, except for the very old generation, there were almost no illiterate people, and there was no one who could not understand or understand scientific terms such as "gene awakening and gene lock";

However, there are very few illiterate people in Huaxia, and they can ...... outside Huaxia

It's hard to do it!

Zheng Yuanqing seemed to have thought of something, and his brows furrowed suddenly;

"Although the level of the awakened is very strong, it is not out of the category of ordinary people after all, for example, the diseases that ordinary people will get, they will get the same, but the symptoms are much milder; Ordinary people are afraid of bullets, and people at the level of the Awakened are just as afraid of bullets......" Yue Hong continued, but he clearly felt Zheng Yuanqing's thoughts, and it was obvious that he also had the same doubts;

"But—"

"When the Awakened reaches the ninth level and completes the 10th Genetic Awakening, their power will increase exponentially; At that time, unless it is a large-caliber anti-materiel bullet or artillery shell or missile, it will not be able to cause them any harm at all, that is to say, such awakened people have completely departed from the category of ordinary people; ”

"And this awakened person is called a lieutenant; As far as I know, the chief of the Qinghe base is a lieutenant; ”

Lieutenant ......

If it is the scientific system corresponding to the guide, it is equivalent to the person who has opened the first level of genetic lock;

But what kind of willpower does it take to become a lieutenant after nine near-death attempts? The horror of dying does not come from the outside, but from the depths of the heart, and it has nothing to do with the physical endurance of the nervous system!

"Then how did you reach the Level 3 Awakened? Cultivation? Zheng Yuanqing thought about it and looked at Yue Hong, he was very curious, with Yue Hong's guts, how did he survive at least two near-deaths?

"Huh! How can it be? This is not a fantasy world; Yue Hong smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said: "I don't know, it's the ...... that woke up when I went to a nearby market town to collect supplies at the end of last year."

"That time, we fought for a total of three days and three nights, until the early morning of the fourth day, when the brothers had just finished counting the crystal nuclei they had collected, they were attacked by a third-level zombie; At that time, I was a first-level awakened person, and I could have escaped; But I am the only one awakened in the team, and if I escape, the brothers will be finished, so I can only fight hard......"

And then ...... Then I went through another NDE, and when I woke up, I was a Level 3 Awakener; ”

Yue Hong said with a pale face, and his thin body curled up tighter and trembled even more, it was obvious that the terrifying memory of the second near-death experience had been deeply imprinted in the depths of his soul;

I see!

His guts weren't born so small, but they scared the living......

Zheng Yuanqing's cheeks twitched when he heard this, of course he remembered that he had just woken up from nightmares several times after waking up; It was only one time, and he couldn't imagine if he would go crazy if he did it a second time!

It can be said that Yue Hong did not go crazy, which already shows what amazing willpower he has;

He is a well-known figure in the pre-apocalyptic world!

"This is the benefit of NDE awakening, which can evolve beyond or even across levels;" At this moment, the guide said;

"There's one thing I don't understand;" Zheng Yuanqing wondered in his heart: "The time of near-death awakening is very short, and a large amount of nutrients are needed during this period to supply cell division and regeneration, but the fat reserves of the human body cannot provide enough nutrients at all, so where did Yue Hong's nutrition come from when he evolved?" ”

"You can ask him how much crystal nucleus is left after awakening;" The guide continued;

"Crystal nucleus? It's all gone! If we hadn't killed that zombie in the end and obtained a third-level corpse crystal, the three days of our hundreds of people would have been in vain; After Zheng Yuanqing asked, Yue Hong replied directly without doubt;

And so it was!

Looks like we'll have to shuttle as soon as possible;

"Well, I'll give you a katana, made of steel; Then I will give you something to eat, and you will first take care of your body here; Zheng Yuanqing thought for a moment, then stretched out his hand and shook the void, and then threw Yue Hong a cold katana and a bunch of things;

It's the second time!

Does he know magic!

Looking at the katana and 5 packs of compressed biscuits, 10 boxes of Mengniu pure milk, 3 bottles of mineral water and 4 cans of canned food at his feet, Yue Hong's knees hugged even tighter;

"Those brutes must be waiting for us outside the town;" Zheng Yuanqing didn't care about Yue Hong's thoughts at all, he just said it-did anyone believe it?

"So I had to go out and find something to go and see if I could break through; You're waiting here......"

"Wait!"

However, before Zheng Yuanqing finished speaking, Yue Hong suddenly sat up straight without knowing where he got the strength, and then Zheng Yuanqing clearly felt that his hand was grabbed by a hand that was not big or so rough, and then Yue Hong's almost pleading shout came from his ears:

"Where are you going!"

"Take me with you!"
