Zombie Atlas 2
15. The average agility level of an agile living is about 90% higher than that of the most powerful ghoul. This is largely due to the strength of the necrotic muscle tissue (which makes it difficult for them to walk on large scales), and the rest is due to their dysfunctional brains. Zombies have lower hand-eye coordination, which is one of their biggest weaknesses. No one has ever seen a zombie jump, whether it's jumping from one place to another or simply going up and down in place. Maintaining balance on narrow supports is likewise beyond their capabilities. Swimming is also an ability that is kept alive. There is a theory that if an undead person is swollen enough to float on the water, then it will become a floating nightmare. This is very rare, however given the slow rate of decay makes the accumulation of by-product gases extremely time-consuming. Zombies that walk or fall into bodies of water are more likely to find themselves wandering under the water until they eventually dissipate completely. They can be successful climbers, but only in specific situations. If zombies detect prey above them, for example, on the second floor of a house, they will continuously try to climb up. Zombies will try to climb any surface, no matter how unreachable or even impossible. In all the simplest of cases, these attempts will only lead to failure. Even in the presence of ladders, only 1 in 4 can succeed when it is necessary to perform a simple hand-hand-alternation of ladder climbers.16 Intelligence has been proven time and time again, and our greatest advantage over the undead is the ability to think. The average mental level of all zombies is lower than that of insects. There is no time when they have to show sanity or logic. Trying to complete a task, failing, and then trying and making mistakes to find a new solution is a skill that is widespread in the animal kingdom but lost by the living dead. Zombies in the lab have repeatedly failed experiments designed for rodents. There was a field incident where a man was on one end of a broken bridge and a dozen zombies were on the other. One by one, the living dead kept falling off the edge as they tried to reach him. None of them realized what was going on or had tactics to try to change them. Contrary to myths and speculations, zombies have never been observed using any tools. Even grabbing a rock and using it as a weapon is beyond their reach. This simple task creates a mental connection that makes them realize that stone is a more effective weapon than bare hands. Ironically, the development of artificial intelligence has made it easier for us to compare the intelligence of zombies with our more "primitive" ancestors. Even the most advanced computers do not have the ability to think for themselves. They won't do anything but what they're told to do. Imagine a computer that is programmed to perform a function. This feature cannot be suspended, improved, or eliminated. No new information can be stored. Cannot install new commands. This computer can only perform one function, over and over again, until Zuihou its power is turned off. This is the brain of a zombie. An instinctively driven, never-ending, machine that cannot be modified but can only be destroyed.17.Emotional living dead have no emotional research as far as is known.All methods of psychological warfare, from attempts to provoke zombies to make them feel pity, have only led to disaster. Happiness, sorrow, faith, worry, love, hate, fear—all these and thousands of other beings that build the human "heart" are as meaningless to the living dead as the organs of the same name. Is all this humanity's greatest weakness or greatest liliang?
The controversy continues, and I am afraid it will last forever.18.Remembering the not-so-new idea that zombies still retain their knowledge of life. We have heard of things like the deceased being able to operate machines familiarly when they return to the place where they lived or worked, or even showing kindness or corresponding behavior toward their loved ones. In fact, there is not the slightest evidence to support this empty fantasy. It's impossible for zombies to keep memories of their lives, whether conscious or subconscious, because they don't exist anymore!
A ghoul will not be disturbed by former house pets, close people, family environment, or anything else. Whoever did what he did during his lifetime, that person was long gone, replaced by an automaton that had no mind but the instinct to eat. Note that this is actually avoiding the essence of the question: Weishenme zombies prefer urban areas to rural areas?
First of all, zombies don't prefer cities, they just stay in places where they are zombied. Secondly, the main reason why zombies stay in the city rather than disperse to the countryside is that urban areas are the places where the most prey is most concentrated and denser.19.Material needs Except for hunger (which will be discussed later), zombies do not exhibit any other material needs in human life. Zombies have never been observed to sleep or rest in any environment. They will not react to extreme hot and cold temperatures. They don't seek shelter even in the most terrible weather. Nor is a need as simple as thirst manifested in the living dead. Contrary to all scientific codes, Solanum has created a creature that can be considered completely self-sufficient.20.Communication zombies have no language skills.Although their vocal cord tissues can be used for conversation, their brains cannot. Their only vocal behavior is a deep wail. This wail starts when the zombie finds its prey. The sound will remain low and steady until physical contact occurs. After that, it changes to a specific tone and volume that is intended to indicate that the zombie has launched an attack. This terrifying sound has become one of the inseparable characteristics of these walking dead. Recently, it was discovered that this roaring sound like the assembly of zombie armies is actually an effective psychological weapon.21 There are always theories circulating that zombies are subject to some kind of collective liliang conditioning, from an army commanded by Satan, to the latest insects-like honeycomb structure pheromone operating mechanism, and even they can rely on telepathy to act in unison. The truth is that zombies don't have any social organization at all. There are no classes, no chain of command, no collectivized operating mechanism. A group of undead, regardless of their size or behavior, is just a combination of large groups of individuals. If hundreds of ghouls gather around one victim, it's just because each is driven by their own instincts. Zombies show indifference to other individuals. The individual will never react in the slightest to any other individual in their field of vision. This brings us back to the question of the senses: how can a zombie distinguish its own kind from humans or other prey at an equal distance?
The answer remains to be found. The zombies avoid each other as if they were inanimate objects. When they are in contact with each other, they do not attempt to communicate or communicate at all. Zombies sharing the same corpse would rather fight each other over and over for a piece of the flesh than try to push a competitor away. The only thing that can be considered public efficacy seems to be the infamous horde hunt: the ghoul's wail is capable of summoning any audible kind. Once they hear the wail, the rest of the walking dead will almost always converge to the location of the sound's origin. One early theory was that it was a premeditated operation, with one scout using a wail to give the other an offensive call. However, we now know that this was all by chance. Those ghouls who start wailing when they find their prey are simply acting on instinct and not as an alarm.22.Hunting zombies are wandering creatures with no territorial or family values. They will travel miles, possibly across continents as long as they have time to find food. Their hunting patterns are random. Ghouls eat day and night. They'd rather hobble through the area than deliberately search. Central areas or buildings are not picked to be more likely to be prey. For example, some have been found searching farmhouses, others searching in rural buildings, and others in the same group have not glanced at the premises at all. Urban areas require more time to explore, so the undead will stay in these areas longer, but no buildings will be prioritized over others. Zombies don't seem to care about their surroundings at all. For example, they never move their eyes to a location that might convey a message. Silently wandering around, with a gaze from a thousand yards away, they wandered aimlessly, regardless of the premises, until they found their prey. As mentioned earlier, the undead possess an inexplicable ability to locate the exact location of a victim. Once contact occurs, the previous silence and forgetfulness will automatically transform into a state closer to that of a homing missile. Its head immediately turned to the direction of the victim. The chin droops, the lips retract, and, from deep within its diaphragm, a wail. As long as contact occurs, zombies cannot be disturbed by any means. They will continue to chase their prey, and the whole process will only end when they lose contact, achieve a successful hunt, or be destroyed.23. The motive for the undead to hunt the living?
Now that it has been proven that human flesh and blood are not the source of nutrients they need, their instincts drive them to murder?
The truth has always been elusive. Modern science, combined with historical records, shows that the living are not the only thing that the immortal likes. Rescue forces entering areas of mass breeding always report that they deprive all of life. Any creature, regardless of their size or species, will be wiped out by an attacking zombie. However, human flesh and blood are always the most favored by other species.An experiment based on a captured specimen with two boxes of fresh meat in front of it: one for humans and one for animals. Zombies choose the human ones again and again. The cause of this phenomenon is still unknown. Above the shadow of suspicion, one thing can be confirmed: it is the instinctive tendency of Solanum to kill and devour any life found. There is no objection to this view.24.Killing a zombieDestroying a zombie may seem simple, but it's not. As we know, zombies don't need all the physiology that we humans depend on for a living. Destroying or causing damage to the circulatory, digestive, or respiratory systems of a member of the living dead has no effect, as none of these functions are used to maintain the functioning of the brain. To put it bluntly, there are thousands of ways to kill humans, and there is only one way to destroy zombies. Get rid of their brains, no matter what method is used. Of course, there is also an opinion that destroying the zombie's spine system can also stop the zombie.
The reason is also very simple, no matter what controls the zombie's brain, the instructions sent by the brain must also be transmitted through the spine and nervous system in order for their limbs to execute.
Therefore, breaking the zombie's spine (including cutting off the zombie's neck) may also be a better way to destroy the zombie.
25. Disposal studies have shown that Solanum can survive up to 8 hours in a dead body. Make sure to maintain the highest vigilance for the corpses of the undead. Given that the head is at the heart of the connection between viruses, special attention should be paid to it. Never touch or carry the corpse of a zombie without wearing protective clothing. Treat it as if it were some kind of highly lethal toxic substance. Cremation is the safest means of disposal and is the vast majority of disposal methods. Don't worry about the rumors that burning corpses will spread Solannm through clouds of smoke, common sense tells us that no virus can survive the heat, let alone open flames.
