doomsday seclusion

At this time, those in the city who should have evacuated had already evacuated, and those who hadn't evacuated either died or turned into zombies.After a month of baptism, not only the life pattern of human beings has changed, but crystal nuclei have also appeared in the heads of zombies.

The appearance of crystal nuclei is proof of the evolution of zombies. Zombies with initial crystal nuclei have weak abilities and become more dexterous. Although they are not as good as normal people, they are still difficult to deal with.At this time, the level of the zombie is "Level [-]", and the size of the crystal nucleus is a finger-wide diamond, and it glows with different colors according to different abilities, such as white for the spirit type, and transparent and colorless for the space type.

From the second level, the abilities of the zombies gradually increased, and the size of the crystal nucleus also changed, gradually growing to the size of two fingers wide, and the action was more sensitive than that of the first-level zombies.

The third-level zombies have formed a preliminary intelligence, although they are still dominated by primitive instinct to a large extent, but they have basic judgment ability.Know how to pinch persimmons softly, and will not blindly die for one bite.They can self-repair their bodies, and their stature has become taller, generally reaching at least two meters.

The fourth-level zombies are basically nightmare-like existences. If it is not for the pale skin, their appearance is almost the same as that of humans. It is said that they can control their length freely, and their wisdom is similar to that of a six-year-old child.Fortunately, before I died, this creature was still a legendary creature, I only heard its name but never saw its real body.

As far as the current situation is concerned, zombies above the second level will not appear until at least one year after the end of the world. It is a blessing among misfortunes.

When I went to the city this time, besides going back to the jewelry store to check out the stone chamber, I also planned to search in other places to see if there were any leftover emerald gems.If possible, it is best to find a stronghold to settle down for a short time, and try to hunt first-level zombies, so as not to lose the skills of the previous life.

I packed ten days' worth of food and some necessary supplies in the car, and before leaving, I mixed ten bottles of long-acting "common zombie repellant" and sprayed it around the house.

The smell of zombie repellant is not strong, but it is very long-lasting.I smell the astringent aroma of plant juice, but the zombies are disgusted.One bottle of the long-acting version can last for one day and can be used in layers, but the cost is not cheap. One bottle is [-], and ten bottles have a total of [-] energy points.

Generally speaking, my abilities can only be exchanged for items that exist in reality, but those related to zombies are exceptions.The antidote for zombies is still in the conception stage, and the vaccine for zombies is a distant dream.As for why it can be exchanged, I can't tell the reason.

Probably because this is the ability to awaken in the last days.

But in the previous life, the only zombie items I could exchange for were antidote and vaccine, and the repellent was a new item in this life. If it wasn't for this, I wouldn't have been chased by zombies in my previous life.

Once in town, I drove straight to the jewelry store.The street at night was eerily quiet. Although the sound of the engine attracted many zombies, because the car body was also sprayed with repellant, they only watched from a distance, not getting too close.

The Hummer car is like an arrow off the string, easily piercing through the air.

When I came to the jewelry store, I realized that the keys I had prepared were no longer useful.The iron door was distorted and deformed, and the glass inside was maliciously damaged, and the incomplete fragments fell all over the floor.

It looks like someone broke into the empty door.

I got in through the hole in the glass door, and I went straight up to the third floor.Perhaps it was because I had absorbed all the exhibits on the first floor and the collections on the second floor, and the intruders were unwilling to return home and vandalized the store wantonly. Everything that could be smashed was smashed beyond recognition.The door of the stone room on the third floor also suffered disaster, the lock was pried open, and all the smaller rough stones were looted, leaving only those bulky and difficult to move stones left in place.

I don't comment on this, I press the stone with both hands, and through the original stone, the energy contained in it is continuously collected into the bag.Feeling the crazy growth of numbers in my mind, I curled the corners of my mouth happily.

After the absorption is completed, the energy value has jumped to a higher level again, and the remaining value here has also been squeezed out.I went downstairs and drove away to try my luck at other small jewelry stores.

It's just that my good luck seems to end here, and the next few places have been completely ransacked, leaving nothing of value.

In the last days, the price of jewelry has plummeted, and the demand is far lower than the supply.However, since the value of showing one's status is still there, and one can exchange some supplies, there are still a lot of people searching.

I am not discouraged by the loss of jewels. Even if I lose a major source of energy, there are other alternatives, and that is to hunt zombies.

The crystal nucleus in the zombie's brain carries abundant energy, which is not inferior to emerald.A first-level crystal nucleus is equivalent to fifty points, and a second-level crystal nucleus is equivalent to one hundred points.At present, there are about [-]% zero-level zombies and [-]% first-level zombies in the city. The second-level zombies will not gradually appear until eight months after the end of the world, and then they will spring up like mushrooms.

Although hunting zombies is laborious, it is better than a large number, and it is a stable source of income.Although not every zombie has a crystal nucleus, a zero-level zombie does not mean it is useless.

The so-called zombies, to put it bluntly, are supernatural beings who have failed to evolve.The mutation brought by the red moon acts on the human brain, causing people to have a chance of "tuberculosis".

If the tuberculosis is successful, you will become a supernatural person.If it fails, a small number of people will die because they cannot bear the pain of "scattered core", and more people will lose consciousness and become zombies.At this time, the loose nuclei scattered in their brains are in the shape of sand grains, which are hard to detect, but the effect still exists, enough to barely support the body's activities.

Over time, the scattered nuclei in the brains of these "dead" will combine autonomously to form "crystal nuclei". This process is called "evolution".The evolved zombies begin to have supernatural powers, and through mutual devouring, the crystal nuclei gradually grow stronger to achieve the purpose of upgrading.

It can be said that if left alone, zombies will replace humans one day and become kings at the top of the food chain.

As soon as the report on the cause of the zombies was released, it immediately caused an uproar.
