Chapter 37: I've Evolved
So obviously, the most important thing at the moment is to let Wen Bo Ran develop a new type of detector, this guy has got the arrow, he must be annoying me every day, so I can't help but look at Long Tao who is sitting opposite.
When Long Tao saw me looking at him, he looked inexplicable, I habitually raised my hand towards Gu Yu, I used to raise my hand when I applied to the teacher to answer questions in class, I am not their insider, it seems inappropriate to speak directly.
Gu Yu nodded at me, and then I said, "Why don't you research an instrument that can distinguish smells?" Military dogs are also fine, doesn't the corpse leader smell of corpse vanilla, you can know it when you smell it. ”
Gu Yu replied: "The smell of corpse herbs can only be smelled at a very close distance, the corpse is hidden in the middle of the group of corpses, and the proximity of living people or living creatures will trigger the aggression of ordinary zombies, so it can only be scanned with an instrument, and then removed remotely." ”
The ideal is to use no/human/machine for near-earth large-area scanning, as long as the ground control center is usable and there are surviving technicians, the satellites outside the earth should be able to be saved.
But Gu Yu used the radio when they contacted him, not the satellite phone, so it was hard to say that the satellites above his head were still there, and after the meeting, I followed Gu Yu into his office, and there was something I wondered, so I took this opportunity to ask clearly.
When we got down to business, the awkward atmosphere between us vanished, and I closed the door, turned my head and asked, "Those detectors are all charged, why didn't they notice me?" ”
Gu Yu raised his arm, revealing the watch on his wrist, the two of us were only two steps apart, but the red light on the dial did not flash, he stared at me, and said sharply, "You have evolved." ”
I looked at him with my mouth open and in surprise, so excited that my heart almost jumped out of my mouth, and I said in a trembling voice, "I, I, have evolved into a human?" ”
Gu Yu said calmly: "No, it's a higher-level zombie, a super strong cell that can replicate human cells." ”
I didn't understand what he said, and he also saw that I was ignorant, and then explained: "I did a DNA test with your hair, and your cell tissue is no different from that of humans. ”
I was even more confused and asked, "Doesn't that mean I'm human?" ”
Gu Yu shook his head lightly: "I drip fresh blood on your cells, and they immediately take off their disguises and turn back into zombie cells." ”
I was dumbfounded by this result, and I summed up his words, which meant that I was a wolf in sheep's clothing, and that I would be exposed as soon as I peeled off the high-quality sheepskin!
This realization made my skin suddenly feel a tingle, no wonder the third corpse herb did not continue to grow my physical strength after eating it, it turned out that it had completed a higher evolution, and even human cells could be disguised.
Gu Yu's voice seemed to fall from the sky: "So you have to be careful not to splash yourself with blood." ”
I woke up from my trance, Mu Ran nodded, and he said again: "Originally, I wanted Dr. Wen to do something to the detector in the name of maintenance, but now I don't need it, Nini's situation is the same as yours, you are optimistic about her." ”
"Gu Yu, why are you hiding it from them? Don't tell them I'm a zombie? Rational thinking returned, I put away my usual giggling attitude, looked at him seriously and asked.
"Many people here have blood feuds with zombies, Long Tao is an orphan, so his attitude towards you is quite friendly, as for Ah Ying, it is because you have more opportunities to get along, she knows you relatively well, and others, if they know that you are a zombie, may anger you."
Hearing the words 'Long Tao' and 'friendliness', I couldn't help but roll my eyes in my heart, he met me and frowned coldly, this is called friendliness?
However, I was once again impressed by Gu Yu's meticulous thoughts, whether he was thinking about his own plans or for the personal safety of me and Nini, he did this to make me grateful, and looking at his righteous face again, it was not so unbearable.
I raised my hand, unconsciously pinched the corner of my clothes, and whispered, "That commissioner doesn't know either?" ”
Gu Yu nodded: "I don't know, and he doesn't interfere in the affairs here." ”
Regarding the mission, Gu Yu didn't miss a word, the secrecy of the soldiers is guaranteed, I really want to find out the content of the commissioner's mission, but I also know that it won't work from Gu Yu.
Coming out of Gu Yu's office, he met Li Jixian, he and Long Tao walked over together, Long Tao seemed to be a little embarrassed on his face, Bacheng was thinking about it, and he didn't care about showing me a look.
"Yo, Mrs. Gu, are you done talking?" Li Jixian is a self-cooked, about thirty years old, with a round face, but a very thin figure, he walks with a big step, but he can't hear the slightest sound, I secretly weighed it, and decided not to rush into it, so as not to startle the snake.
"What Mrs. Gu?" Long Tao immediately returned to his soul when he heard this title, and said casually: "Tuya is here?" ”
Li Jixian coughed lightly, waved his hand at me, and hurriedly dragged Long Tao into the office, the shock in my heart is not small, dare to love Gu Yu has a wife?
This news is so exciting, it made my heart tremble violently and then I was depressed, I don't know where this anger came from, I suddenly thought of Ah Ying, that little girl has known Gu Yu for so long, should she not know that he has a family?!
Ah Ying likes Gu Yu, blind people can see it, Long Tao, who follows Gu Yu's left and right, must have seen the little girl's mind a long time ago, have they told Ah Ying?
I was struggling with whether to talk to Ah Ying, Wen Boran ran up from downstairs, I saw that he wanted to pull my arm, but I glared at him, and instead grabbed Nini's arm and dragged us to his temporary laboratory.
Nini, the bear child is a don't suffer, Wen Bo Ran is a big man, it is inevitable that it is not light or heavy, it is estimated that it hurts Nini, this little Ni slaps the back of Wen Bo Ran's hand with her other hand.
Wen Bo ran an ouch, quickly let go of his hand, and looked at the back of his hand, there were five clear finger prints, and the place where he was beaten immediately turned red, he rubbed the back of his red hand with his teeth, and he didn't dare to touch Nini again.
The laboratory is like a hole in the pan, with a dazzling array of wires and colorful lights, and everything is piled up on the table, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will trip over the wires that come out horizontally.
"I said Pansi Daxian, you invited me to eat Tang monk's meat?" I managed to find a place where I could stand on my feet.
"Shh......h You guessed it. Wen Boran's expression changed, and he closed the door as he spoke, and locked it.
I raised an eyebrow, he usually installed equipment for me is not so mysterious, today seems to have a different experience?
Wen Bo's dyed hair was not dry yet, he should have taken a shower before going out to look for me, he mysteriously felt out a metal box from behind the messy equipment on the table, the box was only the size of a fist, he carefully picked up the box and opened the combination lock on it.
The outer shell of the box is very thick, it should be able to keep warm, and the space for storing items is only as big as a matchbox, and as soon as the box is opened, there is a slight chill inside, and a piece of black stuff is lying in the center of the box.
Wen Boran's expression became happy and excited, he gently stretched out the box in front of me, and a stench that could not be removed after freezing wafted into his nostrils, what did he mean by taking a piece of stinky meat and offering it to me like a baby?
"My mechanical mouse was found in the bombed-out chamber, I looked at it with a microscope, and its cells are still alive."
"You got it out of the secret room under the stone table?"
"Yes, its cells are different from zombies, no, no, it should be said that they are older than the current zombies, you know, the things in that secret room definitely existed before the outbreak of the microbial revolution!"
I really didn't expect this, I can't help but be a little surprised, the situation under the stone table Gu Yu was tight-lipped about everyone, it seems that there are not only mutated scientists down there, but also things he doesn't want others to know.
"Oh, you called me here to show me this?"
"Of course it's not for you, it's for you to eat."
"Eat? Keep this disgusting thing for yourself, I'm not interested. ”
"It's a little disgusting to look at, but eating it will help you a hundred times stronger than eating corpse vanilla, you can rest assured, zombies can be immune for life if they are infected with the virus once, and you can't mutate into zombies anymore." ”
"What if you eat a downgrade?"
"Tsk, let me tell you this, this piece of meat is more advanced than your current meat!"
I nodded clearly, but my tone sank: "Why did you give it to me, do you want me to upgrade and become a zombie that you can't control?" ”
Wen Boran immediately shook his head: "Of course not, I believe in you, as long as your humanity is still there, no matter how strong your ability is, it will not harm humans, your current sensitivity to high-level zombies is almost zero, and you can't even feel their existence, which is a big flaw for me to develop a new detector, so I think you should be upgraded." ”
What he said was the truth, but there was another point he didn't say, so I asked, "Why didn't you report to Gu Yu?" ”
Wen Boran said with a helpless expression: "Although he agrees with you to join us, can't you see that he is always on guard against you, and he will definitely not agree to increase your firepower." ”
Wen Boran is a scientific maniac, and he is not a soldier, he can do it in order to study things that go against the orders of his superiors, and whoever stops him from doing research is his enemy.
But I'm different from him, I don't have an obsession with invention and creation, and I take the flesh and blood of the same kind to enhance myself, this is exactly what Xiaoyu wants to do to me, if I also want to become stronger by eating the same kind, isn't it the same as Xiaoyu?
Some heads can't be opened, once they are opened, they can't be contained, they eat dead meat today, and they want to eat alive the day after tomorrow, not to mention Gu Yu, I can't accept me like this.
"I appreciate your kindness, but I'd rather you bother me a few more times than eat this expired stinky meat, thank you!"
"Don't you want to be stronger?"
"Yes, but only if it is...... Vegetarian. ”
Seeing that I was resolute, Wenbo's wriggling lips finally pursed into a line, and then he concentrated on debugging the instrument, asked me a few more regular questions, and never mentioned the stinky meat.
I have to admit that he is a genius, and in just a few days here, his new detector has basically taken shape, although it is modified and upgraded on the basis of the original, but all the technical difficulties are solved by him alone.
