Chapter 1189: The Transformation of [G Virus] - The Twenty-fourth Pair of Chromosomes
"My grass, what is this!"
As soon as he entered the doctor's laboratory, Zhou Yulong saw a huge monster locked in a huge transparent test tank. This monster is eight meters tall, covered with black hair, and has a thick body, a bit like the super gorilla in the movie "King Kong", but compared to the orangutan, this monster's appearance, hands and feet are more human-like, and the tail behind it is also very short. In short, it's not so much like a gorilla or a human, but more ape like the mutant ape in "Planet of the Apes" that has begun to evolve towards humans.
"It's a T3, or it used to be a T3!"
Hearing Zhou Yulong's voice, the doctor stopped what he was doing, turned back to Zhou Yulong and said with excitement on his face: "Brother Long, can you imagine? This T3 was infected with the [G virus] and actually had an atavistic phenomenon. It's no longer a pure zombie, and certainly can't be a human. Instead, he became a creature like an ape, with inferior human intelligence! ”
"Possess inferior human intelligence?!"
Hearing the doctor's words, Zhou Yulong's face changed slightly, and he asked with a solemn face: "Are you saying that this guy already has the kind of intelligence that is close to that of a human, rather than a simple beast like a wolf pack?" ”
There is a huge difference between human intelligence and animal intelligence, no matter how clever a wolf is, he will never learn to make weapons, and even a schoolboy knows that sharpened wood can be used as a spear.
This is the gap between man and beast!
"That's right, T3-level zombies already have some low-level animal intelligence like wild wolves or dolphins, but I didn't expect that these guys would become more intelligent after being infected by the [G virus]!"
The doctor nodded excitedly, pointed to a huge diamond-shaped glass shard next to the giant test transparent canister and said, "Because we underestimated this guy's intelligence and strength at the beginning, the test canister we used to seal it was broken by it once. And this clever guy knows how to use shards of glass as weapons, and he knows how to break the edges of glass to make it more lethal... This is not something that zombies can do anymore! ”
"Where did this T3 come from?"
Hearing the doctor's words, Zhou Yulong's face became even more solemn. A T3 that can use weapons, and even make weapons, is obviously much more terrifying than the average T3!
"It was found in a small town in North Korea, and because of this variant T3, one of our medium-sized rescue teams was wiped out. It wasn't until Ye Wuming and they shot together that they captured it alive, which was also the first mutant T3 we found! ”
Looking at the sleeping variant T3 in the transparent jar, the doctor suddenly turned to Zhou Yulong and said, "Brother Long, according to my research on the [G type virus] during this time, I found that this is a virus that evolved from the zombie virus. It's just that this virus is more mutable and more difficult to control than the zombie virus. I've tried to use a T-virus antidote against this virus, and the result has been to cause further mutations. There is an ordinary mutant zombie that directly has the power to surpass T2 and surpass the speed of L2 after being injected with the antidote to the T-virus! ”
"Ordinary zombies have combat power beyond T2 and L2?"
Hearing the doctor's words, Zhou Yulong frowned and said, "That means that the T-virus antidote is not only useless against this zombie, but will also catalyze their mutation?" ”
"It's not just that the T-virus antidote is ineffective against [G virus], but according to my research, it's likely that there is no antidote to this [G virus] at all!"
The doctor shook his head, a solemn look appeared on his face, and said, "Because this virus is no longer just to catalyze the mutation of human life energy, but directly changes the genetic sequence of human beings, reviving the most ancient genes in their original genetic structure. For example, this T3 is the best proof that its chromosomes have been restored from 23 pairs to 24 pairs, and it is almost completely atavistic to an ape, but human intelligence has been preserved to a certain extent. ”
"To put it bluntly, I don't understand these things."
Hearing the doctor's words, Zhou Yulong's brows furrowed even tighter. He didn't understand much, but it didn't seem like a good thing.
"Overall, this T3 we might call a mutant ape... And the biggest difference between mutant creatures and zombies is... They have the ability to reproduce! ”
Taking a deep breath, the doctor's face became more solemn, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It is likely that we will have to face not only zombies in the future, but also a group of people with low-level human intelligence, but individual combat power far beyond humans... Intelligent creatures! ”
"I'm grass! How is it possible, have you really researched it? How could those zombies have the ability to reproduce! ”
Hearing the doctor's words, Zhou Yulong's face changed instantly, and he roared angrily: "Find out for me, whether only high-level mutant zombies will have the ability to reproduce or all zombies infected by the [G virus] will have the ability to reproduce!" ”
Since the siege of Chongqing, Zhou Yulong has never put the threat of zombies in his eyes, because in his opinion, no matter how powerful the zombies are, their number cannot increase significantly after all, and it can almost be said that killing one less is one. Maybe even in a few years, even if they don't do it, these monsters transformed from human corpses will rot to death on their own. It's just that now when he hears the doctor's news, he can't calm down anymore. After all, if zombies can reproduce and have intelligence, they are no less of a threat to humans than Atlantis!
"According to the current investigation, in addition to this T3 that has been completely infected by the [G virus], even the T2 mutant zombies have only become smarter, but have no ability to reproduce!"
The doctor's face was also a little ugly, and he said, "It's just that the [G virus] is too complicated, so complicated that it is almost impossible to decipher it in just a few years or even more than ten years with our technology and equipment." So we still haven't figured out how this [G virus] transforms zombies into mutant apes. It may be that only high-level zombies like T3 will have the ability to reproduce after being infected with the [G Virus], or it may be that all zombies infected with the [G Virus] will mutate and regain their reproductive ability under the continuous infection of the [G Virus]! ”
Speaking of this, the doctor took a deep breath and sighed, "Anyway... The only thing we can do is to be prepared to deal with these intelligent beings in the future! ”
"Damn Atlanteans, damn zombies!"
Trying his best to hold back his imminent rage, Zhou Yulong gritted his teeth and squeaked, then connected the communication with the command headquarters, and ordered: "Pass my order, immediately speed up the search and rescue operation." At the same time, the defense measures of Bali, Forward Base No. 1 and Forward Base No. 2 were further improved. These three places are the last and safest refuge for our human race, and there is absolutely no room for failure. Also, tell the logistics department to start preparing enough ammunition and weapons, and when the survivors are settled, we will start attacking the Atlantis One forward base! ”
Time has become more and more important to humans, whether it is zombies and zombie beasts that have begun to mutate and evolve, or Atlantis, which has reserved energy and is about to start an unsealing operation, it is something that the human alliance must guard against and solve. They must speed up and evacuate all the survivors to their final safe place before the mutated zombies become smart enough, and stop the Atlanteans before they can complete their plans to unblock.
"Doctor, what's going on with cloning!"
After stabilizing his emotions, Zhou Yulong shifted the topic to the aspect of clones. Now the battle damage of the dragon tooth team has been increasing, and even a few days ago, an old city manager was seriously injured in order to cover the entire team to highlight the encirclement of a group of zombie rats. Although they still have hope of resurrection due to the protection of the core of life, the core of life is not only a shelter for the human soul, but also a small cage. The taste of the soul trapped in the core of life Zhou Yulong has not tasted, the feeling that he can only see and hear, but cannot communicate with the outside world, let alone feel his own physical body, is too closed. One day or two is fine, if it is a long time, Zhou Yulong is worried that the spirit of those team members will be stimulated and hurt because of the long-term closure.
"The DNA of the leopards has been put into the cloning factory for analysis and replication, and it is estimated that the replication can be completed within today, and then their bodies can be reshaped and implanted into the core of life, so that they can come back from the dead."
Hearing Zhou Yulong's words, the doctor nodded and said, "This is thanks to the fact that the energy system of the third forward base remains intact and has enough cloning materials. Otherwise, it will take a lot of time to clone their bodies perfectly. And with enough biomaterial, I also gave the leopards some modifications to their bodies. Although the transformed body did not have the earth qi and abilities they had cultivated before, the strength of the body was far greater than that of the beginning. And as long as the core of life is there, it's only a matter of time before they regain their abilities. Let's go, I'll take you to see their remodeled bodies..."
With that, the doctor began to take Zhou Yulong in the direction of the cloning factory.
