Infinite Stream Metaverse

Chapter 257 Ore Disease

The Jiliu Mine is located in a group of mountains.

Leman Rustank couldn't go there.

So Fu Qinghai and the others took the airship in Jacob Town to go.

It's a huge armored airship with multiple decks, hydrogen for lift and nuclear fusion for power, not the Brotherhood of Steel's Plydwin airship, which is relatively smaller, but can also park two Bird Helicopter.

The Bird is a chubby, foldable tiltrotor that's sort of a wasteland version of the Osprey, only a little smaller.

To lead Fu Qinghai to the Jiliu Mine, a flying bird helicopter is enough, but Zhao Jianming chose to send an airship to travel, which is a bit of a show of force.

It's just that Fu Qinghai feels that this kind of hydrogen balloon in the air is a big dumpling with thin skin and big stuffing in front of him.

Doesn't have any deterrent effect at all.

The airship stopped advancing and hovered somewhere above the mountains.

The loud noise subsides slightly.

"Is that there?"

Fu Qinghai pointed to the mountains below and asked.

The eyepiece narrows the field of vision, and within reach, there are human-shaped sculptures and animal-shaped sculptures all over the ground. These "sculptures" are covered in gray and black, with cracks everywhere on their bodies, and the cracks emit green light.

"Yes."

Those who led him cried out:
"The skeletal creatures have hive consciousness. When one scorpion creature sees you, all the scorpion creatures will see you."

Fu Qinghai nodded:
"Just to my liking."

After speaking, he jumped off the bow deck.

The tail flames erupted and the wings spread.

Fu Qinghai roared and rushed towards the Jiliu Mine.

……

In the radiation universe, there is a natural mineral with great scientific research value and energy value—radiation polar mineral.

In early 2083, the Enclave conducted a mutation experiment. They placed an irradiated dwarf bat in an environment with irradiated polar minerals, accidentally creating the mother of the virus, and the mutated bat became Huge and began to emit a deadly virus that can turn some living or dead creatures into necromorphs.

This is the origin of the radiation corpse virus.

When humans or other living things come into contact with a living thing infected with radson virus, they will be infected with the virus.

In the beginning, the victim's skin will turn black and quickly turn blood red within a few minutes. At the same time, the hair will completely fall out, cataracts will appear in the eyes, and green crystals of polarite will start to grow from the inside of the skin. In addition to the changes on the body surface, the infected person The intelligence of a man will eventually degenerate completely within a few days.

When not acting violently or receiving orders, Human Infestors will enter the statue stage, where they will remain in one position until they petrify from the inside out, leaving behind a radioactive "sculpture".

The "sculpture" itself is very fragile, and its shape looks like a corpse covered by volcanic magma. The green fissures and some residual crystals are obviously covered with the entire "sculpture". These "sculptures" will send out a special signal to attract nearby radiated corpses.

Although radson virus can even infect legendary creatures such as mothmen, some creatures are naturally resistant to this disease, such as: cats, bees, two-headed cows, etc., super mutants and ghouls are also resistant to this disease Virus immunity.

……

Fu Qinghai suddenly fell into the middle of a pile of sculptures.

Dusty, surrounded by shattered green crystals.

He pulled out the chainsaw sword and swung it, then strolled into the hole.

"Roar--"

A large number of radiated corpses rushed out of the mine.

Fu Qinghai went upstream against the tide of corpses, cutting through the waves among the fragments of corpses and green crystal fragments, killing so many people that they were thrown off their feet.

"Om... bang!"

Fu Qinghai just chopped up the last radiated corpse.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Heavy footsteps came from inside the cave.

Fu Qinghai looked up.

A huge five-meter-high mountain of meat came walking.

A bloated body, similar to a human shape, with two big heads on its shoulders, pale eyes without pupils, a bear paw growing out of its armpit, and a deer hoof dragging by its feet. There are rough sutures all over its body. Green crystals appeared in the gap.

On the big belly in the middle, there is a huge mouth, which is full of dense green crystal clusters, and the sharp crystal clusters surround the huge mouth, opening and closing.

Radiation Corpse Virus + Stitch Monster?
Could this be... the radiated corpse abomination?
Fu Qinghai was not afraid, and hurried to meet him.

The stitch monster just raised the giant ax in his hand, "shua", his hand broke, just raised his huge foot, "shua", his foot broke again, Fu Qinghai was like turning the sword of the blade storm in front of the hatred Holy, the sharp blue teeth sliced ​​the Stitched Monster into chunks of flesh, and the green crystal fragments splashed in all directions, blasting the surrounding cave walls until...

"squeak--"

A sharp hiss sounded from above the cave.

The huge pig-faced bat, more than ten meters long, frantically flapped its wings, quickly passed over Fu Qinghai's head, and flew towards the exit of the cave.

It is the queen of radiated corpses!
It turned out to be the case.

Was the Scorched Abomination sent out to give the Scorched Queen a chance to escape?

Fu Qinghai resolutely threw down the shattered suture monster in front of him, turned around and kicked up on the ground, dazzling flames spewed out from the jetpack, Fu Qinghai caught up with the giant bat, and raised his sword to strike it down.

"Shh!"

The Radiated Corpse Queen was cut in half, organs mixed with green crystals were sprinkled down, and the giant bat bumped into the stone pillar in the cave, struggled twice and stopped moving.

The corpse creature's body is full of crystals, its skin is rough and its flesh is thick and its defense is quite strong. As the top of the hive consciousness, the corpse queen has thick blood and high defense, but in front of the invincible Green Fang, these are just tofu.

Fu Qinghai was about to go over to check.

"Ah...fuck!"

An angry curse sounded from the depths of the cave.

Fu Qinghai turned around and looked.

A figure in a white coat and leather gloves slowly appeared from the dark and deep cave.

It was a guy that looked like a skeleton, with dry leathery flesh that was tightly attached to the bones, making him not look like a complete white skeleton, surrounded by buzzing insects and flies, his cheeks The adherent fascia on both sides moved, the upper and lower jaws opened and closed, and the mouth spoke:

"Why, I don't understand why?"

It's that lich!
With a serious expression on his face, Fu Qinghai leaned over and pulled out the tile-steel sword stuck in the side of his calf. At the same time, he put one hand into the bag on the side of the weapon buckle, which contained golden knuckles and screaming beetles.

The Lich didn't care about Fu Qinghai's small movements, and waved his skinny arms impatiently, saying in a babbling voice:
"Kill me and can't kill me. Every time I have to destroy the experimental creatures I have cultivated with great difficulty, are you tired? Are you interesting? Ang?"

"Is it you who spliced ​​the corpse creature into a stitch monster?"

Fu Qinghai asked.

"Yes, yes, so what."

The lich's eyes burst with blue flames, and the shadows around him were dark and distorted, affected by unknown forces.

"I also strengthened this virus with necromantic magic, so that it can infect dead corpses, and even other zombies. If it weren't for you bastards who came to disturb me every now and then, I would have developed the 'ultimate virus' one step ahead of perfect humans." Virus' gone."

Facing the tall and mighty interstellar warriors, Lich picked his withered nostrils and said nonchalantly.

"You also know about Perfect Human's 'Ultimate Virus' plan?"

Fu Qinghai asked again.

"Otherwise, why do you think I'm staying here, this fucking world that doesn't even have the four elements, look at you... Wait, you know what it means?"

The Lich was a little surprised, he just said it casually just now.

Fu Qinghai said in a deep voice:
"Gabriel told me."

The Lich was even more surprised:

"It means you were not sent by Zhao Jianming?"

Fu Qinghai said:
"I did receive the reward task."

The lich snorted disdainfully, and said:

"I admit that you are strong, big man, but you know nothing about the power of necromancy, and you want to drive me out of this cave with that Valyrian steel weapon in your hand?"

The Lich shook his head:

"Daydreaming."

Fu Qinghai took off his gloves and touched the crystal of true knowledge lightly.

The golden dimension door rotates and lights up.

Chen Xinlu and Li Xingxian stepped out of the fire circle and said:

"And what about us?"

The Lich was slightly taken aback.

Chen Xinlu held a box decorated with black and silver patterns in her hand, and weighed it in her hand. Seeing the box, the blue flames in Lich's eye sockets suddenly swelled up and down with the movement of the phylactery .

Chen Xinlu chuckled lightly:
"Your phylactery, shouldn't this be it?"

"What am I..."

The lich froze.

He didn't speak in a daze.

But his silent demeanor said it all.

After a long time, he spoke slowly, with a hoarse voice:

"what do you want?"

Fu Qinghai laughed:
"I offer you a plan..."

……

After half an hour.

Holding his phylactery in his arms, the Lich, feeling the pain of losing a thousand assimilation points, looked back at Fu Qinghai viciously, and stepped into the sparkling dimensional gate.

Fu Qinghai didn't even look at him.

I just stared at the sealed test tube in my hand and kept playing with it.

"Radiation corpse virus...enhanced version."

Fu Qinghai muttered to himself:
"It's enough to come to the Resident Evil movie universe this time."

The lich's name is Griffiths, a necromancer from the DND universe, and a senior plague expert, but he is suppressed by the worldview in this sci-fi universe.

He accidentally discovered the "Ultimate Virus" project of the perfect human being, which is also the "Gu breeding" project that Fu Qinghai speculated. After that, he ignored the suppression of the world view and stayed in the Resident Evil movie universe.

He wants to take advantage of the situation and use the perfect human's "Gu raising" plan to carry out his own research on plagues and diseases. Biologists are not the only ones who can study viruses and bacteria. Necromancers are also experts in diseases and pain.

It's just that like Father Nurgle, the plagues and diseases created by necromancers have stronger attributes of psionic magic and weaker attributes of scientific reality.

Based on the caves near the Sea of ​​Glowing, Griffiths carried out his own research on the virus, using the radiation corpse virus released by Zhao Jianming as the subject, using genetic engineering methods that are completely different from perfect human beings, magic and mystic methods. Research.

The radiation corpse virus can infect corpses, and Griffiths uses necromantic magic to strengthen this infection ability so that it can infect other zombies—because there are almost no survivors on this earth, and Griffiths lacks enough The source of the dead body, can only think of a way from the zombies.

At the cost of enhanced virus samples + research materials + one thousand assimilation points, Fu Qinghai returned the phylactery to Griffiths and let him leave the Jiliu Mine.

After that, his research will be transferred to the blue blood ruins.

……

Fu Qinghai sat in the carriage.

Holding an irregular translucent green crystal in his hand.

This is Radiant Polarite.

Due to the influence of nuclear war and doomsday, this mineral is not systematically developed and applied in the game.

The power armor of the crystal ore, that is, increased energy resistance, and the laser gun of the crystal crystal, only has a special attack on the radiated corpse creature.

Because the scientific research strength in the doomsday wasteland can no longer be compared with that before the war, the major forces are too busy to survive and fight for hegemony, and have no intention of thoroughly researching the deep value of the extreme crystal minerals.

Only a piece of information that the player found in the terminal in the glass hole depicts a grand prospect:

"Welcome to Rocco Industries(TM) Terminal Connections."

"If you have any doubts about what we're doing, I'll let Dr Eckert show you the generator technology his group is working on.

"That big chunk of radiant polarite is still powering the generator. Once it's researched. It could power the entire mine. Do the math, damn it, and let Dr. Eckert do the math for you."

"Radiantite will become a fuel source for the whole country in the future. We won't stop research because of a few protesters. Let the politicians worry about those things."
