Volume I, Section 37, Fifth Order
He has been strengthened to the fifth stage.
Thanks to the mysterious transformation ability of the prototype elixir, Su Hao's enhancement effect in the early stage of evolution has exceeded twice that of ordinary people. This change seems to grow over time and the number of Silver Bone taken. He built a simple force tester and found that when firing at full strength, he could release about 15 to 18 tons of force. This number is three times more than that of ordinary fifth-order enhancers, or even more. After all, the boxing power of a person of the same level in the future era is usually 5,000 kilograms, and even the best test record is only 5,800 kilograms.
Without this unusually powerful force, it would have been impossible for Su Hao to inject all the team members with immunity pills, so that they could take Silver Bone and gain strengthening.
Immunity and boosting are two very different concepts. Even in the future, there is no way to develop a comprehensive agent that combines two functions into one. Now, Su Hao's blood not only fused the two, but the user didn't even need a higher-level potion to continue to strengthen it. At present, from Su Hao down, the members with the highest strengthening strength are Lao Song, Xinyan and Du Tianhao. They have all stepped into the third stage. As long as there is a sufficient number of Silver Bones, it may enter the fourth stage at any time.
This means that only a drop of Su Hao's blood is needed, and there is no need for any second, third, and fourth stage enhancement elixirs at all. In the future world, this is simply unthinkable.
Su Hao doesn't expect everyone to bow down to him. This idea is simply unrealistic. Human beings have evolved from primitive times to the present, and while science, technology, and productivity have developed rapidly, meanness and cunning have also occupied a large part of human thinking. Even if someone swears allegiance to their face, they are very likely to be stabbed in the back under the temptation of huge profits.
Only the most powerful force is the root of the real constraints.
Compared to the previous fourth stage, Su Hao, who became a fifth-stage enhancer, had an indescribable feeling. How to put it, the bullet can still cause fatal damage to him. However, he was no longer as scared as he had been when he had first teleported.
It was difficult for Su Hao to be shot.
It is not strengthened that the cells accelerate their division, so that the body epidermis thickens to produce a "bulletproof" effect. Instead, compared to before, his brain development has been doubled, and his thinking response and calculation speed have been enhanced. The strengthened central nervous system responds very quickly to the information collected by the visual, auditory, olfactory and other organs. The reflex time has been reduced by 260 percent, the retinal images are more clearly recognized, and the coordination of the body has even increased by more than three times.
The combined effect of these body organs is very remarkable. The most direct embodiment is the judgment of the speed and trajectory of the object. In short: with a radius of thirty meters as the boundary, the bullets fired can cause fatal damage to Su Hao. But he was more than 98 percent sure he would be able to dodge the attack.
Because, the speed of the bullet is too slow in his opinion.
He also has special skills that no one else can match———— heals himself. As long as the central nervous system is not destroyed and there is enough time, rapidly dividing cells can fill any wounds. Even if the spleen is ruptured, the liver and kidneys are shattered, and the limbs are amputated, as long as the head and heart remain intact, he can recover.
Once the fifth-order limit is broken, the Silver Bone can no longer have a strengthening effect on the human body.
This is the consensus of all the authorities in the field of human biology in the future world, as well as the highest research institute of the military. Because of this, the enhancers are divided into five levels according to their different strengths. There has never been such a thing as a "sixth-stage enhancer", and this kind of evaluation beyond the fifth level does not exist at all. Of course, this does not mean that there are no higher, more powerful human individuals. But they no longer belong to the category of fortified people, but are classified as "evolved people".
Evolved humans are also divided into three different levels, each of which has five levels from weak to strong.
Su Hao had once seen the ability test of a bronze first-order evolutionary person. The sheer amount of force is beyond the limits of what humans should be, and it is not too much to compare it to a machine, or a "humanoid chariot". Evolution is very different from strengthening, and extremely dense skin can't stop it.12 A 7 mm heavy machine gun bullet can carry an ordinary warhead with a non-steel core essence under this caliber. That kind of scene is still fresh in Su Hao's memory———— rainstorm-like 5. 56mm bullets were sprayed from all directions, and the tester only covered his eyes and lower body with both hands, and was unharmed in a naked** state. The bullet that hit the body seemed to hit a metal wall, and then bounced off and fell, leaving only reddish marks.
Evolutionary man is a very mysterious being. As a senior researcher at that time, Su Hao did not have much contact. The military looked at these people very closely, and they did not have much contact with the outside world, however, the humans living in the future world knew that there was such a powerful group in the Dao, and some wilderness outcasts even regarded evolved people as gods.
Su Hao didn't know how to change from a strengthened person to an evolved person. The results of biological research in the future era show that only by becoming a fifth-order enhanced human can we have a chance to become a more powerful evolutionary human being. This is an essential procedure, and the obstacle to breaking through the limits may be some kind of elixir. But Su Hao had never seen it and had never heard of it.
He searched for answers in countless books and documents, and found that the evolutionary potion was most likely related to the hormone of putreshing bacteria. Even if it's not a raw material, it's certainly part of an important additive. It's a pity that until the time when the space-time teleporter was activated and left the future, Su Hao still hadn't been able to break through to the third stage of strengthening, so it was naturally impossible for him to know more relevant information from the military as a fifth-stage strengthener.
There are two crucial factors that led to the choice of the initial outbreak of the virus as the landing point of time and space.
First: The energy that Su Hao collected at that time was only enough to land here. He would love to locate the coordinates of the time machine in the year 18XX, or even more distant antiquity. Everyone wants to live a stable and prosperous life, and he also wants to try the feeling of returning to ancient times to be an emperor. At the very least, he should become a powerful minister. However, the situation at that time had no more options and no wait, so he could only hurry on the road.
Second: At the beginning of the virus outbreak, enough putrid hormones can be collected, and it is easy to get silver bones.
Su Hao's initial idea was just to flee and become stronger.
Obviously, the reason why one's own blood is able to make the user immune must be because of the amplification effect exerted by the prototype elixir in it. He never expected to get a group of reinforcement companions. It is important to know that the virus outbreak has only been less than two months now. The first-order enhancers that appeared at this time were in an absolute suppressive position against the zombies. In layman's terms: with enough physical fitness, they can get a staggering amount of putrid hormones and silver bones.
After the Black Age, the direction of biological research will be biased towards mutant organisms. The use of silver bones by humans is no longer a common ingredient. It will be broken down and fused with metal in an elemental way, resulting in bulletproof armor with astonishing hardness, and even become the universal currency of the future world to a certain extent.
As for the putrefaction hormone, rumors such as this can often be heard in the future world———— someone went to great lengths to get a milliliter of putrid hormone, and the military rewarded him with an entire villa in the core area of the base city. There is running water, a first-class power supply, air conditioning system, and even two good-looking replicant maids, which is enough for a hundred and fifty years of "A" class food quota. If you can't finish eating, you can make a will and the designated person will inherit it
At present, tens of thousands of milliliters of rotten bacteria hormones are stored in the underground vault of the small building, and the number continues to increase.
According to the historical records of the future realm, it will take another eight to twelve months for the human group that survived the siege of viruses and zombies to appear the first naturally advanced enhanced people.
The military should not fall into this category. They hide a lot of secrets, which Su Hao can't see through, and it's hard to guess. But one thing is certain———— the military has mastered the formula of the strengthening potion, but it does not know the specific level and effect of the channel.
Including Su Hao, there are a total of 32 survivor groups in the bank building. Among them, excluding the infant who was still breastfeeding, he had a total of thirty reinforcements.
If there are no accidents, in the next year before the zombies have evolved and become stronger, Su Hao can completely rule the city
Two weeks have passed.
The construction of the field camp is much faster than expected. In addition to the participation of Dong Guoping and others, it is largely because the builders have been strengthened. They can carry prefabricated cement slabs on their own without the need for mechanical assistance, or they can carry large quantities of building materials without the time required for vehicle shipments. The first phase of the project, which was completed yesterday, includes three four-storey buildings with a total of 100 small ** bedrooms, and two storage warehouses covering an area of more than 500 square meters. The foundations of these buildings are very strong, and the large number of reinforced concrete and triangular solid structures make them strong and stable. As the main goal of the second phase of construction, the foundation of the camp wall has begun to be leveled. According to Dong Guoping's design plan, the wall adopts a right-angle inverted way to form a defensive surface from the outside, and the four corners are equipped with a height of more than 50 meters of guard towers. Once the walls are completed, the project will enter the final stage, that is, the underground part of the camp will be built on the foundation of the previously excavated and later abandoned.
In the end, the residential building still did not adopt the large room originally envisioned by Su Hao———— Dong Guoping said bluntly: "Everyone needs the best private space." ** and a quiet environment help to stabilize the team, public ownership only leads to laziness and chaos. As it stands, a small home is the best option. Men need women, women need families, and families need plenty of privacy. ”
Su Hao has no more say in this regard, and most of his architectural experience comes from the displaced settlements of the future world. He admits that professional architects do stand taller and see farther than him. The team is not what it was at the beginning of the virus outbreak a few months ago. The rapid increase in various materials has made each member have a considerable occupancy. Forcibly depriving them of what is rightfully theirs is likely to provoke opposition and even hostility.
The people in the small buildings still go out every day, driving their vehicles around the city in search of supplies and building materials. Thanks to their enhanced bodies and sensitive sensory organs, they discovered that many corners of the city were actually hiding survivors. There are not many of them, and the locations are scattered. Banners such as "SOS" and "Save Us" began to hang on the roofs of some tall buildings, and empty bottles often flew in the air during searches. They slammed to the ground and shattered, showing in the most direct way that there were still living people.
In two weeks, eleven more guests were added to the building. They come from four broken families, some of whom have lost a father or mother in turmoil, others who have lost their children.
Crops are planted in the fields near the camp. Lao Song led a few people to plant a batch of cabbage and carrots in the adjacent open space. The seeds of cucumbers and tomatoes have been planted, and although it is too late, there is always a little harvest. In particular, most of the corn and potatoes that had been abandoned in the field by their previous owners were ripe. Survivors were happy to have foods like boiled corn instead of almost greasy cans, and the monotonous recipes of the cottage and camp kitchens were occasionally filled with exciting desserts such as "tacos," "pumpkin paste," and "mung bean soup."
Summer is a season full of greenery.
Every day, two people will be assigned to the field camp to look for edible fruits and vegetables nearby. When the trucks carrying construction materials from the city come back, they bring some fresh and crunchy vegetables with them. Just last week, survivors found an orchard next to a village more than 30 kilometers north of the city. The peaches on the branches are still green, but the plums are ripe. There are two colors: red and yellow, and they are very soft. With a gentle squeeze, the thin skin of the fruit immediately blooms, revealing the sweet flesh of the fruit.
The survivors were familiar with the city. They also found several melon orchards in nearby suburbs. Many of the watermelons in the greenhouse are ripe, and there are also many late-maturing varieties to pick. Lao Song deliberately collected a few melons and left some melon vines as pre-planting. He wasn't good at how to grow it, but he loved to explore it
The midday sun is hot and dazzling, and the sun seems to like the way the body is completely exposed to the sky. No one dares to look up at such a time, and no one likes to go out in such a hot time. So, this fiery and round guy wandered around the sky unscrupulously with his bare ass, which made people feel very perverted and helpless.
Dong Guoping sat in the cab of the excavator, staring intently at the bucket under the telescopic arm directly in front of him. The steamer-like environment made him sweat profusely, and he was wearing only a pair of shorts on top and bottom, but it was still hot.
The foundation of the fence has been concreted, and the thick rebar concrete pillars stand like a dense forest, exuding a cold and solid meaning.
Manipulating a huge mechanical arm and digging out a bucket full of dirt on the ground, Dong Guoping let out a long breath, raised the back of his hand to wipe the hot sweat from his forehead, and said to himself: "I have never done such a perverted project in my life." It is inconceivable that the foundation is 60 meters deep, just to build a wall to replace the past. ”
Even if it is a few hundred meters long, the foundation is only twenty or thirty meters. According to the later revised design, the highest point of the camp wall was 41 meters, and the density of steel used was frighteningly high. Dong Guoping calculated that the wall of this thickness is enough to withstand the attack of large-caliber artillery shells, and the strength even exceeds that of military fortifications in general concepts.
Zombies are slow and unable to run, moving at an average speed of about two to three kilometers per hour. These mutated creatures have no wings and can't jump or climb, and only need a three-meter wall to stop them. And the current wall is 40 meters high, if it weren't for the fact that Su Hao was sane, Dong Guoping would not hesitate to veto this engineering plan that wasted too much labor and materials.
Even he himself couldn't tell, why would he bow down to Su Hao and obey every command from that young man?
Perhaps, he is stronger than me?
Or maybe it's because he saved me?
This question was destined to have no answer, Dong Guoping could only smile wryly and shake his head, refocus his attention on the mechanical bucket, and continue the unfinished work
Su Hao walked slowly along the street that led to the other end of the city. It was past six o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was fading, and a long shadow shone behind him. From time to time, a cool breeze blows in your face, and it makes you feel like you're in heaven.
This is the second time he has gone out alone———— the main control of the team is temporarily handed over to Xinyan and Lao Song, who have experience in handling general affairs and prestige that others can't match. After all, the first members to join the team are always more authoritative than the ones who come later.
Su Hao got a "Santana" from the side of the road. Unlucky, after ignition, it turned out that the fuel tank was almost empty. After driving for less than twenty minutes, it came to a complete stop on the side of the road.
The USB flash drive and white pottery shards that were placed with the prototype potion have not yielded any results. Su Hao has tried many methods, but still can't find the answer from them. In desperation, he suddenly remembered the mysterious research base. According to the military records of the future era, after the prototype was lost, it was abandoned, and personnel and major equipment were relocated long before the incident. It's almost impossible to find any clues in that kind of place, but you have to try somewhat.
It was completely dark.
There is a small clothing store on the side of the road with an open roller shutter door. The area is small, and the shelves with various clothes are lying to the ground, full of dirt and footprints. Behind the cash register sat a decomposing female corpse, unable to see her face clearly, but the two gold teeth in her wide open mouth were very tempting.
Su Hao walked into the store with his mouth and nose covered, carried the single-seater sofa in front of the dead body, walked straight to the place where the sidewalk and the road were adjacent, sat down, took out the lunch box from his backpack, and opened it.
The egg fried rice is made by Shinyan and also has thinly sliced sausages in it. Worried that he would not be able to eat, the girl pressed the fried rice in the box very tightly and heavily.
Su Hao can not sleep, but he can't skip eating.
The rice is already cold, and it is a little hard to chew, which has a unique flavor.
