The formula of the growth fluid given by the system looks unremarkable, using materials that are common in the last days.

In addition to zombie bone meal and some mutant plants, add a small amount of high-grade crystal nuclei. Other things may be lacking, but the crystal nucleus is how much Lu Sheng wants now.

In order to facilitate Xu Yi's scientific research, Lu Sheng directly put the two heavy sacks of crystal nuclei given by Xu Shao in Xu Yi's laboratory.

"Some of the plants in the recipe are ten-year-old varieties and need Han Rui's help." Xu Yishi's finger pushed up the frame, and his tone was gentle, "The knife is broken?" ”

When passing by the weapons workshop in the morning, Xu Yi saw Lu Sheng hand over the Tang knife he had been carrying with him to Ji Feng, so he guessed that something should be wrong with the knife.

Lu Sheng nodded, "It's been used for a long time, the edge of the blade has a few curls, and the handle is also a little moved, give it to Monsoon to see if it can be repaired." ”

After all, it's a good tool that has been used for three years, and it's a little distressing to be so broken.

But productivity tools are always broken when they are used regularly, and it is not known if the monsoon can be repaired.

Xu Yi nodded thoughtfully, "The growth liquid will be made as soon as possible, don't worry." ”

"Okay."

Xu Yi did things, she was relieved.

There are reliable teammates in the world like Xu Yi who must believe in their words and do their deeds. Either you don't say it, you can do it, and you must have good teammates when you travel at home.

In the next period of time, everyone in the whole city of M is fully cooperating with the research and development of the growth fluid.

Xu Shao and his cronies drove to a far away wilderness area every day to hunt zombies, set off before dawn, and returned with a truckload of mutated zombies in the evening.

The zombie groups in Shili and Eight Villages were terrified, and even migrated to a distant place en masse.

The machines used to grind bone meal in the factory are about to rub out sparks, running 24 hours a day, and baskets of bone meal with improved purity are sent to Xu Yi's laboratory.

As the core of the farmhouse, Han Rui squatted next to Xu Yi every day to rub the saplings, and a thin layer of cocoons grew on the fingers of the rubbing.

Although the formula is fine, this system is lazy and only writes the materials but not the processing steps.

From extraction to proportioning, coupled with fusion and subsequent processes, it all depends on Xu Yi's countless trial and error.

With an unlimited supply of materials, Xu also tried almost all possible combinations.

"Teacher Xu is really desperate, it's been 007 for half a month."

Zhang Xiaojuan came over early in the morning to give Xu Yi bone meal, and when she saw that his eyes were blue, she couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "If you put it properly before the end of the world, you can't drink the soup of others." ”

"Teacher Xu said that the New Year is approaching, and the growth liquid should be made before the New Year, so that everyone does not have to work so hard for the New Year."

Han Rui was like a little squirrel, nibbling on the roasted corn brought by Zhang Xiaojuan, her eyes full of admiration for Xu Yi, "Teacher Xu is so good, but it's a pity that Sister Lu is like a stone." ”

"Once you were bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the well rope for ten years."

Zhang Xiaojuan rubbed her chin and analyzed, "I was cheated by a scumbag before, and now I don't trust men, this is a person's self-protection behavior, which is quite normal." ”

"But Teacher Xu is not another man."

"But Mr. Xu is always a man."

The two of them together can not make up a complete brain The head of the analysis of the child is Dao did not notice that Lu Sheng was behind him.

"Are you all here? Huang Jianbo is back, and he is back with new gadgets! ”

Zhao Mujia rushed over with a big grin, not noticing the awkward atmosphere at all.

"Sister Lu!"

As soon as Zhang Xiaojuan and Han Rui turned around, they found that the gossip heroine was by their side, and they stood up nervously on the spot.

"Check it out."

Lu Sheng just smiled and beckoned the two of them together.

……

Hunting alone for more than half a month, Huang Jianbo's whole body was lean and lean, with only skeleton skin and muscles left in his body, and almost no fat.

There are a few more hideous scars on his body, and a piece of his right ear is missing. Although his body was scarred, his mental state was better than before, and he looked a lot more energetic.

A one-man cage was placed on the table in the conference room, and it was covered with a black cloth to make it difficult to see inside.

"Where have you been, so embarrassed?" Zhao Mujia inquired curiously, and by the way, he threw Huang Jianbo a xiaolongbao that had just come out of the pot.

Huang Jianbo took a big look at the two buns, and pointed to the iron cage vaguely, "I went as far as the neighboring province and found that there were new zombie varieties over there, and I took a lot of effort to catch them alive and bring them back." ”

When I heard that there was a new variety, everyone present immediately cheered up.

"Be careful, don't get too close." Huang Jianbo stuffed the bun and cautiously grabbed the corner of the black cloth.

As the black cloth was torn off, a slimy and greasy tentacle swished out, almost poking Huang Jianbo's eyes.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly, and immediately released a thick fire shield, and the hot tentacle retracted violently.

Immediately afterward, the air was filled with the enticing aroma of grilled fish fillet.

Zhang Xiaojuan scratched her head in confusion, "What is this?" Bomb the big squid? ”

Inside the cage was a live octopus the size of an adult!

It's just that because of the serious water loss on the road, the octopus's body is slightly shriveled, and the mucus all over the body is dried into a thin layer of dead skin. Several arm-thick tentacles eagerly wrapped around the edge of the table, and the wriggling suction cups left circular marks on the table.

"Maybe because of the proximity to the sea, the neighboring provinces are now full of this mutant octopus." Huang Jianbo knocked the octopus monster unconscious with two large fireballs, and then moved the cage to a corner far away from the person.

"These octopuses are very cunning, they run fast on land, and the ink they spew is corrosive, and ordinary zombies are no match for them."

"The zombies in the neighboring provinces have almost been sucked by them, and there is almost only this one species left."

After listening to Huang Jianbo's explanation, everyone present looked at each other.

Mutated seafood dominates the world?

Sun Tiantian said hesitantly, "I seem to have seen it in documentaries before, octopuses have several brains, their intelligence is equivalent to that of a five-year-old child, and their ability to learn and imitate is very strong. ”

"A lot of scientists say that the octopus is probably the most perfect creature on Earth."

Huang Jianbo nodded, "It's really smart, don't say it's those zombies, I was almost eaten by this thing." If they continue to develop at this rate, maybe the whole world will be octopus for a while. ”

"When you say that, I feel guilty for eating octopus balls." Zhang Xiaojuan said this, and when she turned around, she immediately bought a box of steaming octopus balls from the vending machine in the corridor.

Su Zheng and Ma Dongmei were worried, "What if the octopus also inherits the devouring ability of zombies?" If you keep eating infinite nesting dolls, you may want to cultivate some deep-sea overlord. ”

Several people couldn't help but start worrying about the future of humanity.

It's hard to temporarily clear the zombies out of the safety line, do you have to fight wits and courage with the deep-sea octopus king?

Only Xu Yi's face was calm and he said lightly, "The overflow of octopuses may be a good thing for humans." ”

"Why?" Several pairs of clear and stupid eyes looked at Xu Yi in unison.

"There is a theory that the reason why octopuses did not become intelligent life forms is because nature has imposed genetic locks."

Teacher Xu's small class has started.

"Male octopuses are severely injured and die of hunger strike after mating, and female octopuses can also cut off their tentacles and die of hunger strike after hatching baby octopuses. Therefore, even if the octopus has a strong learning ability and intelligence, there is no way to pass on the learning results from generation to generation through breeding. ”

"At present, there is no reasonable scientific explanation for this suicidal behavior, and it can only be jokingly called a gene lock."

The problem children were dumbfounded.

"Heavenly ...... it, isn't it......" Zhang Xiaojuan grinned as she was scalded by the octopus balls.

Lu Sheng thought for a moment, "According to this law, as it continues to reproduce, the ability of mutated octopuses will become weaker and weaker?" ”

"Yes, and the zombie population will also decrease due to the invasion of octopuses."

"Shall we ...... Lie to win? ”

What was originally bad news suddenly turned into exciting news, and everyone in the conference room suddenly felt like chickens were beaten.

The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.

Humanity just has to sit back and wait for the scales of victory to tilt in their favor.

In addition to the mutant octopus, Huang Jianbo also brought other news.

Despite the harsh environment, he met a handful of survivors along the way.

Huang Jianbo knew that Lu Sheng was short of people now, so he would provide information about M City to survivors with similar abilities and personalities along the way.

"There should be people coming over in the next few days."

In the next few days, sure enough, there were survivors who traveled long distances to join them.

From them, Lu Sheng also got more news about the other survivors.

It turns out that there are still many people struggling to survive in other places, even in desert areas that they thought were uninhabited.

"The hymn of mankind is indeed a hymn to courage, and I didn't give up trying to survive in such harsh conditions." Zhang Xiaojuan couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.

Zhao Mujia is now Zhang Xiaojuan's little fan brother, and he immediately admired the star eyes, "Brother, that's too right, brother, this is a bit too cultured." ”

"Low-key, the lines in jojo, my brother only scored 90 points in the college entrance examination."

After absorbing a lot of new population, Lu Sheng and Xu Shao discussed and decided to use the radio to send out recruitment signals 24 hours a day to gather all the potential survivors in M City.

"Sister Lu, you want to be the empress?"

After the meeting ended, Zhang Xiaojuan secretly approached Lu Sheng's side and asked in a whisper.

Lu Sheng gave him a return gift of Bang Bang two punches.

"Be a Hammer Emperor."

Does anyone remember that she originally just wanted to eat snacks and play games with Sun Tiantian in the last days? ?
