Rebirth before the doomsday: I quietly emptied the city of supplies

She is still a little girl after all.

How could he have such a mature mind.

well!

Just when Xu Jian's head was getting bigger, Zhang Lixia, who had never said a word, suddenly said softly: "Huh? What is this?" She slowly walked to the water's edge, bent down and looked down. "What's wrong, Sister Xia?" Xu Jian raised his head and asked. "There seems to be...something in the water?"

As soon as she heard that there was something in the water, Dong Qiulei jumped up immediately, having already taken out the three-sided military thorn in her hand. Xu Jian also took out his pistol.

Pointing to the water, she asked doubtfully: "What is it? Is it a mutated animal?" "It looks... similar. But, this thing is too small?" Zhang Lixia slowly walked into the water.

"Hey, Sister Xia, what are you doing?"

Dong Qiulei was startled.

"fine."

Zhang Lixia waved her hand behind her and took a few steps forward.

Fortunately, the bank seemed quite wide and extended far underwater, so after walking several meters, the water only reached her knees.

Zhang Lixia stopped.

She kept looking down at the water, and then said in surprise: "Oh my God, such a small thing is actually dark purple in color."

"Mutated creature?"

Dong Qiulei was startled.

Dark purple, that's already scary.

If you encounter a mutated animal that can reach deep purple, then everyone will probably be wiped out.

But Zhang Lixia did not panic at all. Instead, she slowly reached into the water out of curiosity and whispered: "It seems to be a... mollusk."

"Mollusc?"

Dong Qiulei and Xu Jian were both curious.

The two of them also slowly walked into the water and came to Zhang Lixia's side. I saw her folding her hands and holding up a puddle of water. And there was really a little bug in the water. It's probably only five or six centimeters long. The body appears translucent.

When he saw this gadget, Xu Jian blurted out and exclaimed: "Holy crap, is this a planarian?"

Zhang Lixia and Dong Qiulei turned to look at him at the same time. Apparently you don’t know what planarians are?

Xu Jian said excitedly: "Don't you read scientific articles?"

Dong Qiulei's face darkened: "Old Xu, neither sister Xia nor I have gone to college, okay? Don't show off to us. Tell me, what on earth is this?"

"Cough cough."

Xu Jian coughed twice and said excitedly: "This is called planarian. It also has another name, 'Theoretical Immortal'. Why is it called that? Because it has a very strange regenerative ability that is unexplainable." "

"Regenerative ability?"

Dong Qiulei's eyes suddenly lit up: "So, it can regenerate?"

Planarians can regenerate.

And it is an insect whose regeneration ability is a hundred times stronger than that of geckos.

Planarians are found in fresh water.

It's a worm.

It has unlimited capacity to regenerate from stem cells. So it is called a theoretically immortal creature.

Stem cells are responsible for wound growth and recovery.

So even if this planarian is cut into pieces, each piece of it can eventually become a new individual. Terrifying regeneration ability. .

After listening to Xu Jian's explanation, Dong Qiulei and Zhang Lixia looked at each other excitedly.

"Sister Xia, is it purple and black?"

"Ah."

Zhang Lixia nodded: "This is the first time I have seen such a dark color. I thought it was some dangerous creature, but I didn't expect it to be such a soft thing."

"According to the rules we summarized, if the color can reach purple-black, it must have a crystal core. However, this thing is too small. How to get the crystal core?"

Xu Jian pushed her angrily: "Are you stupid? You are still looking for some kind of crystal core. Just take it back and let Uncle Li swallow it." After saying that, he took out a mineral water bottle from his backpack. , and asked Zhang Lixia to put the planarians in.

"Sister Xia, is there anything left in the water?"

"Definitely not anymore."

Zhang Lixia shook her head, looked into the water and said, "Although I don't feel that it is aggressive, with such a powerfully mutated creature, there will hardly be any more mutated creatures around."

"Well, that's a shame. If only there were hundreds or thousands of them."

"Thinking beautiful things is just thinking about beautiful things."

Dong Qiulei grabbed the bottle, held it firmly in her hand, and said excitedly: "Let's go back to Uncle Li to discuss it and see if he dares to take this risk."

"Okay, let's go back."

The three people hurried back.

Ten minutes later.

Return to the station.

After finding Li Zhongjun, the three of them pushed him outside in a wheelchair and found a corner where An Jing would be undisturbed. Li Zhongjun's injuries never recovered.

The only thing we can do now is to prevent death and keep the wound from becoming inflamed.

However, he was blind in both eyes.

One hand was also disabled.

Only part of the large amount of shrapnel in the body was removed, and the rest remained deeper in the body, making it impossible to operate.

Therefore, we can only count on lingering.

After placing the wheelchair, Dong Qiulei squatted in front of Li Zhongjun and said softly: "Uncle Li, I am Qiulei. Don't be afraid, I have something important to tell you."

"Qiulei, just say it." Li Zhongjun was not afraid at all.

He actually wants to die now.

Because in this doomsday time, he, a blind old man, can only become a burden to others if he survives.

Especially his daughter.

It will definitely be a drag on my daughter.

If he hadn't been so closely watched now, he might have ended his life long ago.

Dong Qiulei looked at Li Zhongjun and said extremely seriously: "Let me declare in advance that the secret I want to tell you comes from Brother Yu."

"According to Brother Yu's instructions, after telling you, you must keep it strictly confidential. You cannot tell anyone for the time being, not even to your daughter." "Uncle Li, you are a veteran, I believe you will abide by the discipline." "So, I told you."

Then, Dong Qiulei briefly explained the ability of crystal cores to activate powers, and also made clear the risks involved.

After explaining everything in detail, Dong Qiulei looked at Li Zhongjun and said, "Uncle Li, given your situation, Brother Yu thinks you can give it a try. Of course, there is a chance of failure, so the choice is yours."

After saying that, the three of them all looked at Li Zhongjun intently.

Li Zhongjun was silent for a long time, and then asked in a hoarse voice: "Qiulei, what you said seems like fantasy. But I believe it. In fact, that day, I saw you going upstairs to massacre those people."

"Why didn't you ask me?"

Dong Qiulei was stunned.

"Because I'm not sure myself. Just for a moment, I saw your back disappearing upstairs. The speed was too exaggerated, so I'm not sure if I was hallucinating."

"It's not a hallucination."

Dong Qiulei took a deep breath and said: "I, Lao Xu, and Sister Xia, all three of us have activated our powers. Moreover, we all mutated by swallowing the crystal core at the critical moment of life and death, and saved our lives. We are lucky. of."

"I see."

Li Zhongjun nodded without hesitation: "I'll give it a try."

"Uncle Li, if you fail, you will either die or mutate into a monster, and we will have to kill you ourselves."

"hehe."
