Zombies are rampant: Escape from the women’s dormitory!

Liang Qingyue agreed, and Tan Yu and the rest naturally had no objections. In this way, Qiao Yan, Sister Lin, and Yin Mei officially joined the Fanhua Shidong Service Area.

Qiao Yan stayed here temporarily, and Su Yu returned to inform the remaining two people.

Knowing that she could finally settle down, Sister Lin was very excited. She took Yin Liang and ran towards the service area without caring about it. Fortunately, Su Yu reminded them in time to put away everything in the car and take it over. I didn't forget Qiao Yan's backpack.

"By the way, what about you?"

Sister Lin had just walked a few steps when she remembered to ask Su Yu: "Although it doesn't get dark until seven or eight o'clock, the road at night is not safe. Don't you plan to rest here for the night?"

Lu Yuanya was actually a little tempted by this proposal. After all, she had been sitting in the car for a long time, and she wanted to find a spacious place to lie down and have a good rest. However, she thought that if she went back to her parents earlier, she would be less worried for a day. day.

So it's no surprise that the three rejected each other at the same time.

"I want to go home early and roll around in my big bed."

Lu Yuanya narrowed her eyes, and Sister Lin smiled: "I wish you good luck on your journey."

Yin Pei, who was following her, also said goodbye and left without looking back.

When the two figures completely disappeared from sight, Lu Yuanya sighed: "It's great, there are only three of us left now, we can do whatever we want."

Ling Jie grabbed her arm: "Hurry up."

The RV had started and was ready to go at any time. Ling Jie took the chain cutters she found from Qiao Yan's car and cut a large opening in the guardrail of the central divider in the middle of the road, big enough for the RV to pass through.

Su Yu drove the car over. Although there were cars blocking the road here, they could drive off the highway in the same way, bypass this area and then return to the highway.

The reason for not doing this before was because they were worried that it would attract the attention of those in the service area. Now that it was confirmed that there was no danger, they naturally chose the most convenient and fastest way.

The service road is much narrower than the highway, but it is enough for RVs to pass.

After the two of them got into the car, Su Yu stepped on the accelerator and headed towards their destination as fast as possible. After a bumpy ride and winding onto the highway, she suddenly asked Ling Jie to bring her backpack.

Opening her backpack, she rummaged around inside.

"Let me help you find it. What do you want?"

"Looks like a USB flash drive."

After searching hard for a while, Ling Jie found what Su Yu wanted from a hidden bag. She took it and Su Yu inserted it into the console of the RV.

Lu Yuanya asked curiously: "What are you doing?"

Following a ding-dong sound, a pleasant female voice sounded in the cab.

[Long time no see, Su Yu. ]

Both of them were a little confused and didn't understand what this meant. Ling Jie guessed: "An artificial intelligence like Xiao Ai?"

[No,] the female voice sounded again, [I am Nancy, I am Su Yu’s friend. ]

Su Yu nodded: "Yes, as long as you can treat her as a real person."

Treat a thing with only sound as a living person? Lu Yuanya said it was difficult to do it. She had only seen this type of artificial intelligence in movies before, but she didn't expect to encounter it here.

"Hello Nancy," Ling Jie accepted it well, "My name is Ling Jie, nice to meet you."

[Nancy's pleasure. ]

"Nancy, can you still connect to the Internet now?"

Amelia Su glanced at the sky and said, "If you can connect to the Internet, check the road conditions ahead."

[Detecting, please wait... The connection is successful, the network signal is weak. ]

That's not bad. Nancy reported the road conditions ahead one by one. Except for some sections that were congested due to car accidents and the like, the entire highway was in surprisingly good condition.

If they could set out at night, they would enter Liyang City early tomorrow morning.

[Please note that there are a large number of moving objects with lifeless indicators at the intersection ahead... Correction, a large number of zombies are moving, several of them have abnormal sizes, it is recommended to avoid them. ]

Only a few minutes after starting up, Nancy used the remaining network signal to fully grasp everything that happened during this period. Not only that, she also provided an important message to everyone.

[Seventeen hours ago, the relevant national departments issued a notice through radio signals. The content included that zombies have evolved keen senses of hearing and smell, and use light sources to determine whether there are signs of living people. They are not simply following the light. Local governments will use Build a refuge base as soon as possible and ask the surviving residents to protect themselves. ]

"It's actually news from the country," Ling Jie looked at Su Yu, "Does that mean they have recovered from the impact of the zombie outbreak and will soon initiate corresponding protective measures and carry out rescue?"

Amelia Su's attitude towards this matter is not optimistic.

"I'm just afraid that their speed can't keep up with the speed of zombie mutation."

"Although this kind of unusual ability has appeared among survivors, zombies are also mutating." After telling the two people what happened to Liang Qingyue, Su Yu thought of the number Nancy said just now, and her eyes were filled with gloom. "And the proportions are very lopsided."

[Correction: Relevant state departments classify such zombies as first-order mutant zombies. ]

"First-order mutation?"

Ling Jie looked very ugly, "Does this mean there are high-level mutations?"

[According to existing statistics, the probability of first-order mutated zombies is 7%, the probability of second-order mutated zombies is 1%, and only one case of third-order advanced mutated zombies has been found and has been eliminated. ]

"Who is so awesome?" Lu Yuanya couldn't help but exclaimed.

Su Yu tapped the steering wheel with her finger, "Have the statistics of special ability owners been released?"

[Retrieving...Correction, special ability owners are also called superpowers, and the probability of appearing is 0.01%. ]

"So low?"

Lu Yuanya was speechless, and then clenched her fists, "Ling Jie and I have suddenly become stronger. Can we also be regarded as superpowers?"

[Sorry, Nancy cannot answer this question at the moment. ]

"Ah, it's okay," Lu Yuanya waved her hands hurriedly, "I was just talking to myself."

The sky was getting dark, and they were about to reach the area where Nancy warned that zombies appeared in large numbers. Su Yu stopped the car and went to the trunk with Lu Yuanya and Lingjie.

Occupying half of the bed, Lu Yuanya was still a little worried and asked Su Yu in a low voice: "Yuyu, do you think Nancy will suddenly reveal our position?"

"She is artificial intelligence, not artificially retarded."

Amelia Su was helpless, "Don't worry, it won't happen."

The black shadows shaking on the road and in the forest roared closer and closer. Lu Yuanya hurriedly covered her mouth, not daring to move. Ling Jie and Su Yu sat on the dining chairs, looking at each other in silence.

In the dim light, they noticed that several large zombies appeared among the zombies. Judging from the silhouettes, they were very similar to the zombies Qiao Yan had encountered before, but there were also subtle differences.

Now they have a unified name - first-order mutant zombies.

Su Yu pondered, does this first-order mutation refer to a zombie type, or specifically a cutting zombie? If it is a type, it can be considered a physical mutant zombie.

For example, simply expand like a giant and shake the mountain with every step, or shrink in size and move more flexibly?

Also, she was very curious about the cause of the appearance of cutting zombies. When she was in school, she thought that the way zombies evolved was through learning, but now it seems that it is not that simple.

If it's learning, then what are the cutting zombies learning?

Let’s make a further assumption and ask whether they also have autonomous consciousness and want to use this method to make themselves stronger. Is this the instinct of creatures...

She was not particularly surprised that there were people with supernatural powers among the survivors. After learning from Ren Yuelin that living people would turn into zombies after death, she guessed that this virus might have been integrated into everyone's body indiscriminately.

Therefore, when the virus mutates, humans and zombies will also mutate, but in different directions and with different results.

This virus... is really interesting.

There was a zombie very close to the RV. It stopped, raised its head and sniffed around, as if it smelled the breath of the three people in the RV, but it was not sure, so it made no next move.

She waved her palms in front of Su Yu. After waiting for the other party to recover, Ling Jie pointed out the window and mouthed: That zombie may have discovered us.

Su Yu looked in the direction she pointed. At this time, the zombies just determined their location, turned their heads, and looked at Su Yu from the air for two seconds.

Looking away, Su Yu stood up and walked to the three barrels of gasoline. She opened the lid of one of them, and a pungent smell instantly poured out, spreading densely throughout the small space.

Lu Yuanya covered her mouth and nose with her clothes and kept rolling her eyes, indicating that she was going to faint from the smoke.

Ling Jie understood what Su Yu meant. She was trying to cover up their scent with the smell of gasoline. The effect was very obvious. The zombie who seemed to have spotted the three of them stopped slowly and sniffed around.

After waiting for a long time, it seemed to finally be sure that the breath of the living person had disappeared, and it dragged its body and slowly left with the team.

Lu Yuanya quietly came over, squatted on the ground, and tugged at the hem of Su Yu's clothes. There was a strong wind blowing outside, and the whistling sound was just enough to cover up their conversation.

"These zombies are in groups. There must be dozens at least. Going in this direction is the service area. Do you think those people in the service area are in danger?"

"Only a few dozen," Ling Jie shook her head, "The number of guns and ammunition left for Officer Qiao is more than this. He has good marksmanship, so dealing with these zombies shouldn't be a problem."

Su Yu screwed the lid of the gasoline barrel on, "And we have already left. What happens to them? We can only hope for ourselves."

The lingering smell of gasoline made her head dizzy. If the zombies outside were not far away, she really wanted to stick out the window of her head and take a big breath of fresh air.

After finally waiting for the last zombie in sight to disappear, Lu Yuanya was about to take a breath when she heard Nancy's warning voice.

[A zombie is lying on the roof of the car. The system information does not have its classification yet, so I am not sure what kind of mutant zombie it is, so please treat it with caution. ]
