In the evening, the small building began to become very lively.

The hall was packed with survivors who had been rescued from the bathing center. They have changed into clean clothes, lined up, and received food in order.

Tao Yuan stood behind a few makeshift tables that served as shelves, scooping steaming porridge into each bowl's bowl with an iron spoon. The two porridge buckets next to it were full, and the porridge was filled with minced canned meat and oil beads, giving off an enticing aroma.

Xinyan and Liao Qiu stood on the periphery of the hall. They were holding loaded automatic rifles and staring at the crowd more than ten meters away. If there is something unusual, they will shoot without hesitation.

According to normal thinking, the rescued person will be somewhat grateful. However, there are no absolutes in anything. Su Hao also could not guarantee that every rescued person would obey orders. He only hopes that these people will follow the arrangement and integrate into his team as soon as possible.

Su Hao did not issue weapons to the rescued, and even confiscated all the things on their bodies that might cause harm to others. These people are housed in the inner rooms of the building, and the corners of the stairs and corridors are guarded by heavily armed team members, and there are corresponding security personnel between the floors, which are not superfluous. In the absence of sufficient evidence that these people are trustworthy, Su Hao will not take any risks.

The location of the field station had been chosen, and he needed enough manpower to complete the construction of the house and the perimeter wall before winter came.

The people in the hall were very orderly. There was no confusion and no loud noise. They sat at the table with bowls of porridge and drank and talked in whispers. There are also people who help with things and clean up.

They all knew very well what was going on, and they knew that there were hideous and terrifying zombies everywhere outside the road. The conversation was nothing more than the horrors that each person experienced, their views on the current situation, and their worries about the future.

A middle-aged man with a slightly hunched back took out his mobile phone from his arms, approached his eyes, and broadcast several numbers in a row with a frown. After the last day, he said with a sad face: "There is still no government broadcast, and I can't receive any news." ”

The thin man next to him rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, rubbed his nose with his thumb, and muttered to himself, as if asking everyone: "Where did those monsters come from?" ”

No one answered, only the sound of sucking from a small sip of porridge.

"Could it be the Japanese?"

A short, stocky middle-aged woman lifted her glasses on the bridge of her nose and said uncertainly: "After the nuclear accident at the Fukushima power plant, the rats there have become very big and crazy." Also, the previous ** virus is said to have been created by the Japanese. ”

"Then why has no one come to the rescue?"

Tall and lanky men scoffed at this statement. He raised his voice and retorted: "Where is the army?" Where are the police? You can't even get through on the phone, and suddenly cut off contact with the outside world, do you think this explanation is reasonable? Is it possible? ”

"Anyway, I'll have to go back and see. After a few days of rest here, I'm going back to my family. ”

Aimless discussions are destined to lead to nothing.

The chaotic speculation made the already dull atmosphere even more depressing. Soon, people left the messy table and returned to their rooms to rest

The living environment in the small building is very good, there is water and electricity. For the rescued who have lived in a dirty and dry environment for a long time, this is simply an extremely luxurious treat.

Standing under the shower head in the bathroom, Cao Rui closed her eyes and let the water wash over her body. The splash of water splashes on the smooth surface of the skin, flowing down the uneven curve, converging under the round ankles, and disappearing into the shallow floor drain orifice.

Picking up a dry towel from the handrail, he pushed open the water-stained door and let out a long exhale. The cool air irritates the skin that has just been stimulated by the hot water and its pores are open. That indescribable comfort made Cao Rui want to moan.

"The whole city has almost run away, and there is still hot water here. You guys are really happy. ”

The person who spoke was Shinyan who was sitting on the edge of the bed. Thinking of the experience of the past period of time, Cao Rui was very emotional, and also felt that only the word "happiness" could express her inner feelings at the moment.

Xinyan smiled faintly, pulled over the military backpack placed at the foot of the bed, and took out two empty 5s. 8mm pistol magazine, one by one pressed bullets.

She was wearing a loose T-shirt and shorts, revealing most of her straight **, sitting cross-legged with her slender legs, her hips seemed tight, and there was no fat on her waist, everything was full of girl's unique youthful vitality.

"When we cleaned up this building, there were a lot of zombies. It was dangerous at the time, and if it weren't for him, I would have been dead long ago. ”

Xinyan didn't speak loudly, but it was enough to hear clearly.

Cao Rui picked up the cup with cold boiled water, took a sip, and looked at Xinyan with some curiosity.

As a mature woman who has been married, of course she can see Xinyan's youthful charm, and she also understands who "he" is referring to in her words. It is undeniable that as the leader of the team, Su Hao did leave an extremely deep impression on her: handsome, tough, ruthless, and resolute On the other hand, Xinyan is very young, and he is outstanding in both figure and appearance. Such a couple of men and women spend a lot of time alone in a safe and comfortable small building, but they look as if nothing has happened on the outside, which is really curious and confusing.

Cao Rui does not think that Su Hao is sexually impotent, or that Xinyan has the same gender hobby on such issues.

They all adhere to the most basic etiquette and rules.

I, on the other hand, have just met a group of men who are worse than beasts.

Unconsciously, faint tears overflowed from the corners of Cao Rui's eyes.

She finally understood a sentence she had seen in a collection of lyrical essays many years ago.

"Only by contrasting can we feel happiness."

Across the road adjacent to the trap courtyard are several high-rise residential buildings that have just been built for a short time, with a brand new appearance and a strong modern design style. The location of this property is good, and the price has been rising. Newspapers and TV commercials always claim that the vacant houses are sold out, but no matter who goes to the sales department to consult, the sales lady always pretends to be careful and mysteriously tells the other party: "There are still two vacant houses in Building XX, if you want to buy them, now, immediately, immediately." ”

From the outside, the buildings are unusually quiet. The empty elevator room was darker than a tomb. There was no light, and there was a daunting chill in the hallway.

Along the rough cement steps, Su Hao trotted up to the third floor. Use the key to open the soft lock in one of the rooms, dodge in, close the door with your backhand, and fasten the lock. Then he quickly approached the window and looked carefully through the gap in the draping curtains. After making sure that no one was following and there was no abnormality, he turned around and unscrewed the emergency light placed in the corner.

This is a rough house that has not yet been renovated. There was no furniture in the room, and the curtains were a few pieces of black cloth that Su Hao got from a nearby store. Three men with their wrists and ankles tightly bound by ropes huddled in the corner, not speaking or moving.

They were the captives that Su Hao had captured from the bathing center. The rescued and Cao Rui carefully identified that these people, like Liu Jiantao, who had died, were involved in the violence that killed several other women.

Three people slept on the cold floor, unconscious. They were all knocked unconscious, unable to move with thick strips of cloth tied around their mouths.

Su Hao looked at these people silently and took out a medical glass bottle from his backpack. Illuminated by the pale blue emergency light, the bottle could be seen containing a viscous gray-brown liquid. He inserted the syringe needle into the rubber stopper at the mouth of the bottle, drew out about fifteen milliliters, and injected it directly into the blood vessel in the wrist of one of the captives without disinfecting or washing it with alcohol.

Immediately after that, there was the second, the third.

All the captives had been injected with Su Hao's blood. As for the gray liquid in the medical glass bottle, it came from the corpse. The infection effect of this kind of thing is very significant, and the diffusion is extremely strong, and the human reaction is even more violent than a zombie bite.

It is indeed immoral to use living people for experiments.

However, thinking about the women who died tragically, it is not too much to do so.

The curtain hanging in front of the window was blown open by the wind, revealing an inky night sky and a moon curved like an eyebrow.

Su Hao put away the medicine bottle and syringe, took out a cigarette from his pocket, took out one and lit it, took a deep breath, spit out a faint smoke, and silently stared at the natural celestial body closest to the earth.

Today is his birthday.

If in the future era, I will be forty-six years old. And the actual physiological age of this current body is no more than 20 years old.

To leave that plane is to say goodbye forever to hatred, sin, the past, and the friends who are there, and all the people you know.

A lot of things are like they happened just yesterday, and I remember them vividly. It's a bit funny, they actually "happened", but in terms of time, they are decades in the future.

I can't go back.

Those people will never be able to chase after them.

Smoking a cigarette, Su Hao felt an inexplicable sentimentality. He wanted someone to talk to, but he didn't have anyone to talk to. After all, there are some things that can never be said and can only be kept secret.

What is the difference between the future and the past? It doesn't belong to me there. Now, that's all that matters.

Lowering his head, the hands of the watch on his wrist showed that thirty-seven minutes had passed.

In the future, the study of zombies in the world has formed a systematic discipline: according to the genetics, physique, physical condition and other factors of each person, a bite or scratch under normal circumstances will produce an effect within about three to six hours. In other words, people who are bitten by zombies have no precise time definition because of the mutation caused by infection. However, corpse fluids with large amounts of virus are different. This kind of thing will cause infection for a short period of time, and the mutation time will not exceed fifteen minutes. Even if the immunization agent is taken after infection, the effective time limit should not be less than 7 minutes and 30 seconds.

The breathing of the three captives was light and slow, and their body temperature was stable, showing no signs of elevation. There is no dehydration of the fingers and facial skin. When the eyelids are opened, the pupils are not dilated and there is no congestion around them.

At night, the temperature is a little cooler than during the day. The air in the room seemed to freeze from the cold. Su Hao squatted by the wall, silently staring at the unconscious prisoner of war, his right hand clenched, and he remained ready to attack at any time.

Considering the inertia of the virus caused by the low temperature at night, he waited an extra ten minutes.

What's more, the injection dose is more than three times the normal value.

No one turned into zombies, and no side effects were found for those who were injected to be unwell. All this shows that ————'s previous guess was correct, and he did produce a strong immune base in his body. Even if there is no genetic agent made in the future world, this antibody can be transmitted to others through blood.

Looking at his hands, Su Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head. He began to understand a little, in "Journey to the West", he was caught by a monster and stuffed into a steamer to prepare to cook and eat Tang Seng.

Of course, this kind of experiment still carries a certain bias, and there is no instrument for data analysis. But Su Hao was not ready to conduct similar experiments again. With the addition of Lao Song, there are actually four cases based on it, and no more proof is needed.

Drawing the fighting knife from the lower back, he stabbed the captive who was still unconscious in the side of the neck, and the blade pierced through the other end, slicing the throat and the entire cervical vertebrae.

Su Hao's direction of the knife is very accurate. The knife passed through the gap between the bones without the slightest obstruction. This is not the cruelty of torture, but the habit of hunters in the future world———— there are many humanoids who are not enough to kill by cutting off blood vessels, and only by cutting off the nerve centers can they be completely incapacitated.

A few minutes later, he walked out of the room, leaving behind three bodies that were gradually getting cold and stiff.

The blood has an immune effect on the virus, which means that other team members can take Silver Bone and become a booster like themselves and Lao Song.

This is very good news.

This means that it is now possible to build a fortified force.

Provided, of course, that those people are loyal enough to themselves.

For the future, this is an unimaginably huge advantage. Because, now is the early stage of the virus outbreak, the strength of the "-1" level zombies is weak, it is easy to obtain a large number of silver bones, and they can also quickly increase the level of the enhancer.

Even in the time and space where he was originally located, fifth-order enhancers were very rare. The environment, food, water, and increasingly powerful monsters all constrain the production and source of the Silver Bone. Although humans at that time were generally strengthened, most of the ranks were level 1 to 2. Even the most experienced hunters rarely evolve to the third stage.

experiments, only solved speculation about immunity. There is another question, and Su Hao still hasn't found the answer.

Immunity and enhancement are two genetic drugs with very different effects. Even the military research institute of the future world world has not developed anything similar. So, why does your own blood have both effects?

Su Hao was puzzled. He felt like there were countless question marks in his brain, and he had just figured out a small part of them, only to discover more mysteries that he couldn't see.

But either way, it's good for you.

Having this power means that you can collect a lot of strategic resources now. On the premise of immunity to the virus, the zombies of the "-1" level can hardly pose a threat to the fortified people. Of course, this statement is not absolute. Several factors such as terrain, physical exertion, will, etc., must also be taken into account. However, on the whole, a team of fully strengthened people can indeed sweep away small groups of corpses.

Silver bones, which grow in the bodies of zombies and other monsters over time. Even in the future realm, the highest record of silver bones obtained from a single monster individual is only 22. 8 mg.

The physiology of zombies in the early stage of the virus outbreak was very low, and according to the battle records of the previous period, the silver bone in their bodies was about 1. 8 to 2. About 3 mg, the average will not exceed 2. 1。

If the zombies of this period are regarded as rats, then the high-level monsters that appear after a year, or even a year and a half, are equivalent to fierce beasts such as tigers and lions. In particular, those who are particularly strong mutants can even be seen as dinosaurs and the like.

Risking the threat of heavy losses, it takes a lot of manpower and resources to hunt a Tyrannosaurus rex, and you can get about 20 milligrams of silver bones.

Hunt ten rats and get the same amount of money, maybe even slightly more.

Both answers are correct for this multiple-choice question.

But whoever it is, they will only choose the latter

Sunshine and rain are forever vying for dominance of the city. Clearness and gloom linger over the city. The former brings the harsh sun, and even the asphalt road is softened by the blazing heat. The latter turned the whole world into cold and miserable, damp and muddy. It feels like a war between a scoundrel and a shrew———— you kick me, I spray you with saliva, and no one can have the upper hand.

Su Hao stood on the top floor of a building dozens of meters high, glanced at the city full of countless reinforced concrete buildings, but it was like a death prison, sighed imperceptibly, and slowly turned around.

Xin Yan, Lao Song, twin sisters, Tao Yuan and his wife, Du Tianhao, Liao Qiu, as well as Cao Rui and Zhang Jingjing, who had just joined, the core members of the entire team, all stood in the room.

It's not far from the building, and you can see the rooftop from the window at the end of the corridor. It is impossible for Su Hao to tell the secret to those strange rescuers. Even if they do have any accidents in the small building, they can completely eliminate it in a short time.

Looking at these people in front of him, an indescribable smile appeared on Su Hao's face. He said lightly, "Now, how do you feel?" ”

This is not without purpose———— just yesterday, every core member of the team took 10 mg of silver bone. By now, twenty-four hours have passed.
