Chapter 129: Upgrade Shen Xue
The elite-level alienated zombies in the 16 petri dishes in front of him were defenseless.
Lu Cheng smashed them one by one with a crowbar, and then mended them one by one with a pistol.
Even if they woke up, Lu Cheng was not very afraid.
But if you can save your physical strength and kill them with a headshot when they don't wake up, why bother?
After killing 16 elite-level Alien Zombies and collecting their Alienated Crystal Nuclei, Lu Cheng chose to give Shen Xue a priority upgrade.
After spending 15 elite-level alienation crystal nuclei and 1,890 ordinary alienation crystal nuclei, it can be regarded as upgrading Shen Xue to LV14.
【Baron Shen Xue】
[Alien Virus Level: S Class]
[Current Level: LV14]
[Materials required for upgrading: a viscount-level alien crystal nucleus]
[Attributes: Strength 20, Agility 19, Endurance 17, Will 15, Resistance 15]
I have to say that the evolution of the baron level to the viscount level is the most painful for Lu Cheng.
The main reason is that there are too many ordinary alien crystal nuclei, from LV10 to LV14, a total of 1890 ordinary alienated crystal nuclei are needed.
Fortunately, an agreement was reached between Lu Cheng and more than a dozen survivor bases, allowing Du Zi to bring supplies every day to exchange the alienation orbs they had collected.
Otherwise, it would be really impossible, in just a few days, 1,890 ordinary alien crystal nuclei would have been accumulated.
In comparison, the elite-level alien crystal nucleus now feels relatively easy.
After upgrading Shen Xue to LV14, Lu Cheng's attributes have also been greatly improved, which mainly comes from the special effect of the 10% attribute bonus of the servant zombie.
The reason why he chose to upgrade Shen Xue first was also because Shen Xue's attributes were more inclined to the combat aspect.
Moreover, Shen Xue's skills are also more conducive to combat, and in the current situation, he naturally upgraded the combatants first.
After killing all the 16 elite-level zombies, Lu Cheng still felt a little unsatisfied, and looked at Liu Mengyang and asked.
"Professor Liu, is there any other place in this laboratory that has such zombies?"
Liu Mengyang was stunned for a moment, and then said.
"There's petri dishes, that's it, and the little lab rooms we just walked all the way to.
But as you can see, the petri dishes in the small room are basically broken, and in fact, there may not be all experimental creatures in them. ”
When Liu Mengyang said this, Lu Cheng felt a little pity, and seeing Liu Mengyang's puzzled expression, he quickly explained.
"I just think that these special zombies will also wake up in the future, causing us a lot of trouble.
It's better to get rid of them here, by the way, how are these zombies made, and are they also made by injection like Councilor Wang? ”
Lu Cheng showed great interest in the problem of mutant zombies.
Although Liu Mengyang is not an expert in this area and has not participated in this research, after all, he has obtained the experimental agent of the federal company before.
I've also read relevant reports, and explained at this time.
"Actually, it's not very easy for the federal company to create these alienated zombies.
The vast majority of people, after being injected with vaccines related to the alienation virus, will die directly.
A small number of lucky people will become ordinary zombies, and alienated zombies with mutants like this may not have a probability of 1‰.
At that time, they also captured a lot of test subjects, most of whom were death row prisoners bought from countries around the world.
And a situation like Councilor Wang's is actually very rare.
I don't know exactly how to operate and turn ordinary people into alienated zombies.
The relevant research report only has the results, not the process and raw materials, so I have no way to recover. ”
Lu Cheng nodded and said.
"It's okay, anyway, there will still be opportunities in the future, and there is more than one place in the laboratory.
There are so many places where there are federal companies, there must be laboratories, and there may be relevant experiment reports elsewhere.
But don't get me wrong, Professor Liu, I don't want to make alienated zombies in large quantities, I just want to take precautions, in case these potions can save our lives in the end. ”
Lu Cheng casually found a reason to fool the past, but it was a pity in his heart.
If there were 16 more Alien Zombies, it would be nice to let him collect the Alien Crystal Nucleus.
After a few days, after collecting the ordinary alien crystal nucleus, they can also upgrade it for Zhang Xiaoyun and the others.
But it was useless to say so much, Lu Cheng took Liu Mengyang and the others to continue to move forward.
It didn't take long for them to arrive at a main gate, which was similar to the one he had just seen.
It's just that when Liu Mengyang entered the password in the past, he didn't cut off the power directly like the gate just now.
When they opened the door and walked in, they saw a huge computer screen in front of them, and there were many small screens and keyboards next to it.
Apparently it's all the jobs of those staff, and this is the center console.
Liu Mengyang walked excitedly towards the main computer, and then said:
"I need to take a moment to get into the main program, you guys take a look."
Liu Mengyang just said this, and was about to walk forward, but Lu Cheng had already grabbed Liu Mengyang's arm and pulled him back.
Liu Mengyang was still a little confused, and Lu Cheng was already frowning and looking at the open space in front of the main computer in front of him.
I saw pieces of minced meat coming out of nowhere in the cracks on the floor.
Soon gathered in front of the main computer, and the minced flesh was merged into a human form, wearing a white coat, and it was Dr. G.
Dr. G in front of him, after opening his eyes, looked at Lu Cheng for the first time.
This time, he didn't chatter with Liu Mengyang, and there was something about experimental research, but looked at Lu Cheng and said:
"The experiment has entered a critical moment, although my experiment is not perfect, but the collection of data is a must, and please perform well, these data are important to me."
Lu Cheng didn't know why Dr. G said this, but he saw Dr. G snap his fingers, and nothing happened after a few seconds.
Lu Cheng walked over, wanting to touch it as before, dismantling it and dispersing it.
But Lu Cheng had just taken two steps when there was a sudden tremor in the entire underground research institute.
Lu Cheng and the others are okay and can stand, but Liu Mengyang is a little embarrassed.
Suddenly fell to the ground, looked around and couldn't help but shout.
"Isn't it going to be an earthquake at this time?"
Lu Cheng originally thought it was an earthquake, but soon he felt that it was not as simple as an earthquake.
The trembling feeling was getting closer and closer, and Lu Cheng finally reacted, it was a movement from under their feet!
Lu Cheng pulled Liu Mengyang back sharply, and shouted to Zhang Xiaoyun and them at the same time.
"Hurry back to the lab just now."
As soon as Lu Cheng's words fell, Zhang Xiaoyun and the others had already rushed back wildly.
Just as everyone had just pushed into the connecting corridor of the laboratory, where they were standing, the ground suddenly cracked.
Then a worm with a diameter of four or five meters came out of the ground.
Thankfully, the lab's center console was large enough that it didn't break into the area where the main computer was located.
And looking at the huge insect in front of him, Lu Cheng immediately reacted to what this thing was.
It looked like an earthworm, but with its mouthparts circled and its huge sharp teeth, it looked like some kind of deep-sea monster.
【Ground Worm: Unknown Level】
It's like a low-level character in the game, and when you see a high-level monster, you can't tell the other party's realm.
When Lu Cheng saw the ground worm in front of him, the grade mark he saw turned out to be a red question mark.
The terrifying ground worm, after burrowing out of the ground, quickly bit the gravel in its mouth clean.
Those debris fell to the ground, but the ground worm did not directly attack Lu Cheng and the others.
Instead, he twisted his body, his huge body slamming into the floor with a thud, and then spat out a flesh-colored lump.
The lump was two or three meters long, and I don't know what it was.
The worm spat out the thing, and quickly retreated back into the huge hole where he had come.
It's as if the Dr. G in front of him snapped his fingers and summoned it.
Lu Cheng and the others stood firmly, the rumbling and shaking sound gradually moved away, and the movement like an earthquake finally disappeared.
But they were alert to the movement around them at all times, thinking that it would attack them at any angle.
Fortunately, that weird big bug didn't come back.
Dr. G, who was composed of flesh and blood, looked at the huge piece of flesh in front of him, which was obviously alive and had beating blood vessels, and said:
"Let's just ask Professor Liu and you to enjoy my perfect experiment."
After Dr. G said this, the huge meat bag in front of him began to agitate violently, as if something was about to hatch.
And Lu Cheng didn't say a word, took out the rifle in his hand, and shot wildly at the three-meter-diameter piece of meat in front of him.
Zhang Xiaoyun beside them naturally quickly took out a pistol and shot at the piece of meat.
Bullets rained down on the piece of flesh.
You can see the surface of the piece of meat, which has been smashed by the impact of the bullet.
But this piece of meat was too big, and Lu Cheng didn't directly penetrate the opponent's weapon.
Even a powerful rifle can't directly penetrate these pieces of flesh.
And after the piece of meat was attacked by Lu Cheng and the others, it quickly reacted, like an insect curled up.
He began to stretch his body slowly, and the first thing he showed was a pair of flesh-colored legs.
This is followed by a body with pronounced muscular mass, then a two-handed torso with no clothes on, and no secondary sex characteristics for both men and women.
It looks like some kind of artificial muscular figure is put together.
And the piece of flesh was completely stretched, and it was three meters tall.
It's not the largest alienated zombie Lu Cheng has ever seen.
But that hideous face, the torso that seems to have no skin, and the heart that is pounding in the chest, makes people feel a little numb when they look at it.
And what made Lu Cheng most vigilant was the level of the zombie in front of him.
【Viscount Zombie · LV15】
Lu Cheng didn't expect that the zombie in front of him would have a viscount level.
And in addition to being more advanced than Lu Cheng and others in terms of rank.
Lu Cheng also saw the zombie in front of him, with an unusual appearance, and both hands were like huge animal claws.
The fingers had just reached the waist, and the claws on them had fallen to the knees.
At a height of three meters, it gives people a very terrifying sense of oppression, and the muscles all over the body represent strength and agility.
Lu Cheng is very sure that if that claw goes down, I am afraid that not the steel plate can be shredded like white paper.
And after this terrifying monster appeared, Liu Mengyang shouted in surprise.
"This is the Tyrant of Death, how is it possible? It should still be in the theoretical experiment stage! ”
After Liu Mengyang finished shouting, Lu Cheng turned around and asked.
"What is the theoretical experiment stage?"
"Before the end of the world, I had seen his concept report.
And this kind of Grim Reaper tyrant belongs to a type of tyrant, which is just the result of artificial intelligence.
It stands to reason that it hasn't entered the formal biological experiment yet, so why is it here?
After the apocalypse, isn't the Federal Corporation completely destroyed, and is still doing research on alienation viruses? ”
Liu Mengyang was surprised to put forward his guess, but Lu Cheng quickly took his rifle and reloaded, while saying:
"I don't know the specific situation, but no matter what, it seems that the so-called theoretical experiment is now about to enter the stage of actual combat experiment."
As soon as Lu Cheng's words fell, the Death Tyrant in front of him had already sprinted towards Lu Cheng.
The huge body of three meters tall, even the speed of the sprint, is like a hurricane.
There was a rumbling sound when you stepped on the floor, and even the solid floor could be seen as footprints were stepped on.
Lu Cheng yelled at Liu Mengyang behind him.
"Stand back!"
Lu Cheng's position at this time was located in the place where the aisle was connected, and such a narrow terrain was obviously not suitable for a frontal battle with this big man.
Liu Mengyang had quickly retreated to the previous laboratory, the venue of this place was obviously much larger, and Lu Cheng retreated while shooting, and the 30 rifle bullets were quickly emptied by him again.
But those bullets hit the sturdy muscles of the Tyrant of Death, but they didn't do anything in the slightest.
Lu Cheng had already aimed at his head and exposed heart as much as possible, but at the heart part, the Death Tyrant always covered it with his arm, intentionally or unintentionally.
The head is as if it were wearing a steel helmet, and its skin is so hard that it makes a metallic sound when a bullet hits it.
And in the face of such a terrifying defense, Lu Cheng not only did not have the slightest fear, but the cells all over his body became excited.
Is this the strength of a viscount-level zombie?
The skin defense is so terrifying that even a rifle bullet can block it.
I'm afraid that only a more powerful sniper rifle, or a machine gun, can effectively damage him.
Lu Cheng couldn't wait to become a viscount-level alienated zombie.
But the premise is that the strong enemy in front of you must be defeated.
The Death Tyrant in front of him had already rushed to him, and his right claw swung out violently towards Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng knew that if he was defenseless, he would definitely die if he was caught head-on by that hard claw.
He quickly rolled back, narrowly dodging the swift claws.
But the Grim Reaper Tyrant turned his right hand outwards and struck it from the bottom up.
The claw hit Lu Cheng's arm, and suddenly it was as if a high-speed truck had hit him.
Lu Cheng's body flew out like a cannonball.
He smashed three petri dishes in a row before he could stop.
And Shen Xue and the others had already retreated to the laboratory at this time, and saw Lu Cheng being knocked out like a cannonball.
The Death Tyrant immediately pursued Lu Cheng who flew out, and Shen Xue had already pressed up.
Fortunately, Shen Xue was promoted to level 14 in advance, otherwise Lu Cheng would not have dared to let her face the level 15 Death Tyrant alone.
The machete in Shen Xue's hand swung towards the Death Tyrant, and the Death Tyrant just raised his claws.
The moment the machete touched the claw, it had already broken.
But Shen Xue didn't want to use a machete to kill the Death Tyrant in front of him.
I saw Shen Xue's body quickly turn over, grabbing the arm of the Death Tyrant.
With the help of the power wielded by the Tyrant of Death, one flew and came to the shoulder of the Tyrant of Death.
Standing on either side of his neck with two legs and raising his pistol at the Celestial Spirit Cover of the Tyrant of Death, it was a rapid fire.
At such close range, the bullets of the pistol, although they can cause damage to the scalp.
But when he encounters the tenacious bones of the Tyrant of Death, he can't get into it at all.
I saw the Tyrant of Death raise his two huge claws, and then thrust them into the top of his head, one left and one right.
Only a pop was heard, and the two claws were intertwined, and Shen Xue had already jumped up in advance and left the shoulders of the Death Tyrant.
The Death Tyrant turned his head to look at Shen Xue, although his face was expressionless, he was obviously extremely angry at Shen Xue's behavior of actually standing on his shoulder and shooting the Heavenly Spirit Gai.
But before he could rush towards Shen Xue, he felt a strong wind behind him.
As soon as the Tyrant of Death turned his head, he saw a fist hanging down his cheek.
Lu Cheng's body was covered with shards of glass, but there was not the slightest trace of injury on his body.
I saw only that punch in the face of the Death Tyrant, and his skin visibly trembled.
And Lu Cheng's hand only felt hitting a thick steel plate, but Lu Cheng could clearly feel it-
I can break the defense!
Boom ——!
A loud noise, like a metal crash, exploded through the lab.
This time, the Grim Reaper Tyrant was hammered out entirely.
The head slammed into the walls of the lab, hitting so hard that even the lights on the ceiling flickered.
"What kind of power is this......
Liu Mengyang, who was hiding in the corner, couldn't help but push his glasses.
The power that Lu Cheng burst out in front of him, and confronted the Death Tyrant head-on, was simply beyond his common sense.
Although the Federal Corporation has been researching super-powerful mutants, there has never been a single data showing that the experimental subjects can reach the strength of Lu Cheng.
Even if there were, it would not be possible to maintain the intelligence and form of human beings.
If there is any perfect product in the Federal Corporation, the prototype of the perfect product must be Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng just knocked the Death Tyrant out with a single punch, but he didn't feel that this punch could fatally injure the Death Tyrant.
Sure enough, I saw the Tyrant of Death and got up again in the ruins.
One of his cheeks was sunken, but it was visibly quickly recovered.
It should be said that he is a tyrant of death!
The recovery ability of viscount-level alienated zombies is so strong.
