Devil Class Cannon Fodder

Chapter 62 The End Times

Gu Qing finally hugged the little tsundere Schrödinger, and watched the Spring Festival Gala 20 years ago alone.

The Spring Festival Gala at that time was still very exciting.

When watching a sketch, Gu Qing was amused and laughed.

Schrödinger: "Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo."

Gu Qing was stunned for a moment, then reached out and scratched Schrödinger's chin: "I just thought you were laughing."

Schrödinger: "Meow."

After the new year, another month passed before the temperature began to pick up.

The zombies also became active, and even a wave of zombies ushered in soon after.It is also very difficult for the survivor base in the capital to resist, let alone other survivor bases.So shortly after the beginning of spring, survivors from other bases flocked to the capital one after another.

In addition, other bases, especially those that belonged to the government at the beginning, also turned to the capital for help.Not just supplies, but also guns and ammunition.

Before there was anything to say above, other people in the base expressed resistance.The capital is relatively well-off, but that doesn't mean they have to rescue other bases. After all, the situation is so severe now, and taking care of yourself is the most important thing.

It's just that the capital has to think too much, and the survivors of other bases cannot be left alone.

Well, it has nothing to do with Gu Qing, he still concentrates on his research.However, the turmoil outside also spread to the research center, and Jiang Zhe even mentioned it casually one day.

Everyone has expressed their views, and the general attitude tends to be that even if relief is needed, it cannot be done for nothing. It is okay to exchange materials for materials like before.

Even if the leader of the capital is the leader of a country before the end of the world, but because of this, the supplies that should be used here should not be divided from the survivor base in the capital , to support other bases, causing the Capital Survivor Base to suffer undeserved losses, and in the end it ended up being inhumane inside and outside.

In short, I hope that leaders can distinguish priorities.

Gu Qing did not participate in the discussion.

In the end, the capital survivor base had a lot of scruples. Instead of dividing the supplies hastily, it decided to teach them to fish, that is, to impart the advanced technology of the capital to the two survivor bases that originally belonged to the government.Therefore, several experts were inevitably dispatched from the research center to accompany the team to the two survivor bases for on-the-spot guidance.

Gu Qing has not been transferred, but there is a vacancy on his side, even if it is filled soon, it still needs mutual adjustment.In addition, a colonel-level official was dispatched from above to assist Chief of Staff Lin in administrative work.

Chief of Staff Lin usually doesn't get involved in the operation of the research center. In a certain sense, Gu Qing is the actual person in charge of the research center.Therefore, the superior sent this Colonel Yu here, and after collaborating with Colonel Yu to parachute to the research center, Gu Qing, as a layman, wanted to interfere with the operation of the research center, and Gu Qing felt offended.

In his territory, it is not yet the turn of a layman to point fingers.

Gu Qing thought for a while, and reported to the higher authorities that Colonel Yu was not suitable to come to the research center, which was a waste of resources.The above said that Colonel Yu is eager for quick success, but Colonel Yu is a pillar of talent, and with him, the research center will be better provided with a safe and secure environment. In other words, Colonel Yu will not be removed.

Gu Qing narrowed his eyes.

If you don't evacuate, don't evacuate, and let Colonel Yu know the truth of "not in the position, not in the government", in fact, there is no need for Gu Qing to do anything himself.Chief of Staff Lin lashed out at Colonel Yu for overstepping his position, telling him to do what he was supposed to do, and don't put on any official airs. He really thinks this is the end of the world.

Not to mention that the research center is an iron bucket, but after all, Gu Qing has the final say. If he wants Colonel Yu to become an "invisible person" in the research center, then Gu Qing can definitely do it easily.

It’s just that Gu Qing is very clear that Colonel Yu is just a “minion” sent by the higher-ups. If you cut off this hand and smash this tooth, there will be another one.In this case, it is natural to think of another way.

Gu Qing learned about Colonel Yu's life in detail, and then Gu Qing didn't seem to do anything to Colonel Yu, nor would he target Colonel Yu for no reason, but after Colonel Yu corrected his attitude, he calmly led him to Learn about research centers.

As for the difference between what Colonel Yu finally learned about the research center and the actual situation, that is Colonel Yu's own business.

So on the surface, everyone lives in peace.

The research center is still relied on as before, and there is no shortage of various resources.

The three most important projects in Gu Qing's hand, one is the vaccine, the other is the space button, and the remaining one is about the crystal nucleus.In the apocalyptic world where energy is depleted day by day, and it is difficult to mine and import and export, crystal nuclei, which are "mined" from the heads of zombies, will surely become the most valuable new energy source in the apocalyptic world.

The ability rifle and the ability cannon were developed before, and they can also be used for heating. If the crystal nucleus is popularized, can it further replace old energy sources such as oil or coal?

One of the more common problems is that various means of transportation have long been abandoned due to lack of driving force, not to mention trains and airplanes that need navigation.Gasoline is gradually becoming more rare than food in the last days, especially as the last days go by.

So, can crystal nuclei be used as driving energy for transportation vehicles?

For Gu Qing, the answer is yes.

It's just that the urgency of this project has to be in the back row.

Now after Colonel Yu's incident, Gu Qing changed his mind slightly, and he moved this item forward.

In his spare time, Gu Qing even started to conceive.

The time has come to summer.

The bad news is that this summer is hotter than usual.Last summer, the apocalypse had already arrived, but last year's scorching heat returned to scorching heat, but it can't be compared with this year.The crops in the field couldn't stand such extreme heat, coupled with the drought, the reduction in production was still good, and there were quite a few crops that failed.

Soilless cultivation is fine, as the water needed comes from snow water stored in winter.

The good news is that there have been no Level [-] zombies so far.

In addition, the capital is in contact with several other countries, including Japan across the sea and the United States across the ocean.The European side also contacted two, and Russia further north.Everyone is in a difficult situation, and they are all researching zombie vaccines, but no country has found the source.

The credibility of this is hard to say.

In the research center, everyone is talking about it:

Professor Qi sighed: "Survivors in a country cannot be twisted together, let alone between countries."

Professor Wang Wenli frowned and said: "The arrival of the end times has reshuffled the world situation. Whoever can have the greatest advantage will be the boss, even if it sounds meaningless."

"No no, it is precisely because of the end of the world that we need to master strong power. Human beings can do anything in order to survive." After Jiang Zhe finished speaking, he cue Gu Qing who did not express his opinion: "Teacher Xue?"

Gu Qing propped his forehead: "I'm thinking about that novel. The original author may be whoever he is. It's very likely that she just wrote it like that, saying that the end of the world is coming, but she didn't justify how the end of the world will come. When this novel becomes When there is one world, the will of the world will have its operating rules, so will the part about this zombie virus just let the zombie virus appear out of thin air? God said that there must be light, so there will be light.”

What Gu Qing said was the truth, the source of the zombie virus was not clearly mentioned in the original plot.

Jiang Zhe: "...What kind of god is that!"

The expressions of other people are also very subtle, "living in a book" still makes them feel like a stick in their throats.

Gu Qing smiled: "Maybe one day when our research on parallel universes reaches a certain level, we can go and see our 'God' in person."

This topic was not discussed any further because of an emergency.A person with supernatural abilities was bitten by a zombie, and is currently under temporary isolation and control outside the base.

Up to now, there are only a handful of cases where supernatural beings have been infected at the base of supernatural beings in the capital.There is also an unspoken rule that when a companion is infected, they will usually choose to be sent to the end by the companion or kill themselves before turning into a zombie.

Right now, this means that this supernatural being is still alive after being infected. For the research center, it is worth observing the transformation process, so the infected person was escorted to the research center soon.

Before that, Gu Qing had already obtained the information of the infected person.

The name of the infected person was Liu Xiaoliang, a wood-type supernatural being, and he had a compatriot brother Liu Daming.Liu Daming is also a supernatural power, a fire supernatural power.

This time when he went out to collect materials, Liu Xiaoliang was unfortunately scratched by a third-level zombie. He thought that nothing would happen, but before entering the base, he failed the monitor, and Liu Xiaoliang was controlled outside the base.

Being scratched by a third-level zombie can lead to infection, which was highlighted by Gu Qing, which has never happened before.

When Liu Xiaoliang was escorted into the research center, judging from the appearance alone, he already had the characteristics that an infected person would have. However, Liu Xiaoliang has not completely lost his mind yet.In addition, Liu Xiaoliang's pupils turned blue, and the pupils became extremely small.

Gu Qing looked at Liu Xiaoliang, asked Bai Ze to scan his whole body, and frowned when he saw the results of the scan.Then let the automatic machine cut Liu Xiaoliang's clothes, and suddenly found that his shoulder, which was originally scratched, was scalded flat after being gouged out with a knife.

"Where's his muscle that was gouged out?" Gu Qing asked the team that escorted Liu Xiaoliang over.

They don't even know it's happening.

Gu Qing slightly asked, before they escorted Liu Xiaoliang, his brother Liu Daming said he wanted to see his brother for the last time.

Gu Qing immediately said: "Bai Ze, help me connect with Chief of Staff Lin."

After Liu Xiaoliang was controlled, and after he was confirmed to be infected, the medical staff at the base could do nothing, so they would not have approached Liu Xiaoliang rashly to gouge out his initially infected muscle.

Then look at that area was scalded by fire, which effectively reduced the outflow of blood and reduced the possibility of being discovered at that time. Combined with Liu Xiaoliang's brother Liu Daming's fire ability, it is very likely that the person who did that is Liu Daming.

What did Liu Daming do with the infected muscle?

The situation may not be optimistic.

Soon Chief of Staff Lin started to search for Liu Daming in the base.

In the process, Liu Xiaoliang completely transformed into a zombie.The strange thing is that the zombie he transformed still maintains a normal human shape to a large extent, that is to say, except for the bluish white skin and eyes that are different from ordinary people, he does not have the large area of ​​human tissue necrosis of ordinary zombies.

Also, even though Liu Xiaoliang couldn't speak anymore, he could make a whoo-ho sound, not that kind of angry sound, but a real feeling.

In addition, following Liu Xiaoliang's whoo-ho, the ordinary zombies in the research center became restless.Considering that a level-three zombie can manipulate ordinary zombies, and the zombie that Liu Xiaoliang has turned into is obviously not just a level-three zombie, so Gu Qing decisively ordered him to be wiped out.

After Liu Xiaoliang heard what Gu Qing said outside the isolation room, he moved the corners of his mouth and made a smile that could be interpreted as contempt, and then he started to perform exercises.

no……

It is to activate the ability.

Before being infected, Liu Xiaoliang had the earth ability.Earth-type supernatural beings mainly serve as shields for themselves and their teammates in battle.Now his ability is no longer earth-type, but more like a corrosion ability. The isolation room used to isolate the third-level zombies has a defense coefficient that is not much resistant to that kind of corrosion ability.

During this process, Liu Xiaoliang stared at Gu Qing coldly with his blue eyes, waiting for him to "break out of prison" successfully, and then start killing.

Gu Qing was very calm: "Bai Ze."

Bai Ze: "Yes, Teacher Xue."

Liu Xiaoliang could hear and understand.After Bai Ze made his voice, Liu Xiaoliang turned his head and looked around, trying to see where Bai Ze was, but he couldn't find Bai Ze after looking around. Could it be an invisible person?

Before Liu Xiaoliang, who became a zombie, was "cut into pieces" by the energy network, he never imagined that what he encountered was not some supernatural being, but just the ubiquitous artificial intelligence in this research center.

Also, why does Liu Xiaoliang think that he can kill in the research center? Couldn't they have some defense measures?

After ensuring that all of Liu Xiaoliang's functions disappeared, the other zombies in the research center also became dazed again.

Gu Qing also suspects that the zombie Liu Xiaoliang can summon is not only in the research center, the scope of this summoning may be much wider, after all, he may become the king of zombies.

Zombie Liu Xiaoliang has a crystal nucleus, which is more "outstanding" than all previous crystal nuclei.

While Gu Qing was thinking, Bai Ze reported the situation of Liu Xiaoliang's brother Liu Daming.

Because Liu Daming suspected that Liu Xiaoliang's infected human tissue might be used to infect other people, the base attached great importance to it, and organized personnel to search for Liu Daming.Gu Qing has recorded all the information of Liu Daming. In order to find and beat Liu Daming as soon as possible, Gu Qing asked Bai Ze to re-encode, and asked a portable life detector at the research center to only detect Liu Daming.

With this, the search for Liu Daming is much more straight to the point.

Soon, the search squadron found Liu Daming in a section of sewer in an area with a relatively high concentration of survivors.He is taking Liu Xiaoliang's infected muscle and feeding it to the rats in the sewer.

Liu Daming obviously didn't expect him to be found so soon, he was already quite crazy at the moment, even though he looked normal.

When facing Liu Xiaoliang's infection before, Liu Daming was very calm. After watching Liu Xiaoliang for the last time, he put his brother's piece of meat in his pocket without any abnormality at all.

So the quarantine personnel at the entrance of the base, also because they sympathized with him for losing his brother, didn't think there was anything wrong with Liu Daming at all, and couldn't imagine what crazy things Liu Daming had done.

Facing the search squadron armed with guns and live ammunition, Liu Daming returned to normal after being stunned for the first time. He even reached out and stroked the happily eating mouse: "Eat, eat."

The search squadron made a decisive decision and absolutely did not allow the rats that ate the flesh of the zombies to harm other innocent people. Liu Daming was going to be shot immediately.Liu Daming also lost the will to live. He just wanted the mice to escape successfully, so he suddenly got into trouble and used his fire ability.

"Go!"

Liu Daming was successfully killed, and the mice he fed soon turned into zombie rats. They were instinctively attracted by fresh meat, and instead of fleeing, they rushed towards the search squadron.They were quickly resolved, but the search squadron could not be sure that Liu Daming had not fed other mice before this.

Not sure about the base either.

The idea of ​​the base is naturally that it would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go.

Another thing is that they want to strengthen their control over the base, not only because of Liu Daming, but also because there were survivors preaching among ordinary survivors before.This religion is of course a cult. In the last days, the survivors generally have a very difficult life, and they don't know when they will be the leader, so they become fertile ground for the cult.

In the long run, he was brainwashed by the so-called leader and voluntarily donated his food and water to the leader.There are also good-looking women in the sect who also voluntarily donated their bodies, and what's more, they even started life sacrifices.

Before being discovered by the base, this so-called Death Cult had existed for three months.

The reason why the clues were revealed was because one of the believers of the Rebirth Cult was Han Yiyun's cousin Han Yuexin.

Han Yuexin defected from other bases later. Before the apocalypse, Han Yuexin was the eldest lady, but after the apocalypse, she had no supernatural powers, so she sold her body. Later, when she arrived at the Survivor Base in the capital, she was tricked into joining the Rebirth Cult.

Han Yuexin originally thought that her cousin Han Yiyun had died in the last days, but who would have thought that Han Yiyun not only lived well, but also had supernatural powers, making her flourish in the survivor base in the capital.

Jealousy made Han Yuexin completely unrecognizable, and when she went to Shengjiao to hold a life sacrifice, Han Yuexin wanted to trick Han Yiyun into coming.

Then there is no more then.

The Rebirth Sect was uprooted in this way, and the believers didn't listen to the persuasion at all, and even resisted, causing quite a commotion.

In any case, this kind of thing made the above painful, especially now we have to make sure that there are no zombie rats raging in the base, which is not fun.

Finding zombie rats is easy and simple, but to strengthen the control over the base, Gu Qing said the most effective way is to introduce the artificial intelligence Bai Ze to the survivors.

As for privacy or something, right now, nothing is more important than survival.Besides, before the end of the world, the right to privacy is relative.

Of course, Gu Qing is just a suggestion, whether he adopts it or not depends entirely on himself.

In addition, when Liu Daming and Liu Xiaoliang had an accident this time, Gu Qing also realized that there were loopholes in the defense system.

Moreover, since Liu Xiaoliang, a supernatural being, became a higher-level zombie after being infected, it also shows that fourth-level zombies, or higher-level zombies, will also appear. After all, higher-level zombies under the world rules can appear.

Of course, it wasn’t that there were no supernatural beings who turned into zombies before. There were none in the Survivor Base of the Capital, but there must be some in other places, but it’s not said that there are zombies that are higher than the third level. So now Liu Xiaoliang’s mutated level is high. It should be related to Liu Xiaoliang's own ability level before the mutation.

There is a consensus in the capital on the use of crystal cores to increase abilities and how to effectively increase utilization.The above did not require all the harvested crystal nuclei to be handed in, but only a part of them need to be handed in, and the rest of the supernatural powers are used by themselves. Therefore, the supernatural powers of the supernatural powers here have been acquired or more in the past few months. Boost or less.

The inspection center also gave the ability level standard.

Finally, it is worth noting that Liu Xiaoliang was infected after being scratched by a third-level zombie, and his abilities changed after being infected.However, it has never been infected by a third-level zombie before, so this third-level zombie is worth noting.

Fortunately, before the zombie Liu Xiaoliang went to destruction, the research center took his sample, and finally preserved a piece of his body.

This may be of unexpected help to the research of the research center.

By the way, there is also the crystal nucleus of the zombie Liu Xiaoliang.

Gu Qing quickly analyzed this research task, and the research center started to operate at high speed. Gu Qing himself started to study the crystal nucleus first.

That crystal nucleus is more textured than the crystal nucleus sent to the research center before, and its color is cyan, just like the eye color of the zombie Liu Xiaoliang after he turned into a zombie.If the energy in it is weaponized, the effect will undoubtedly be astonishing—the materials in that isolation room are all the best, and they can be easily corroded by the zombie Liu Xiaoliang, which shows his zombie-like abilities.

Schrödinger still came in the dark. Seeing Gu Qing's concentration, he didn't squeeze himself over like a cat, stared at the crystal nucleus for a while, and slowly stretched out his right front paw towards Gu Qing.

Gu Qing said coldly and mercilessly: "Don't think about it."

Schrödinger slowly retracted his right front paw.

After ten seconds, Schrödinger slowly stretched out both front paws, still close together.

Gu Qing squinted over.

Schrödinger rested his head on its front paws, the cat's eyes were shining, and then let out a soft and cute cry.He even tilted his head, it couldn't be cuter.

Gu Qing withdrew his gaze, showing no signs of softening his heart: "Did you eat the wrong thing today?"

Schrödinger: "..."

Schrödinger then put away his disguise and grinned at Gu Qing.

Gu Qing was not frightened at all, and said in distaste: "Go brush your teeth and wash your hands."

Schrödinger was stunned for a moment, and breathed on his paw, and when he leaned over to smell it, the whole cat froze.Now it can no longer be stubborn, and pretends to be nonchalant to wash its paws, and chews Gu Qing's special Schrödinger toothpaste.

Smell it again, it is delicious, and Schrödinger can raise his head and make a good cat.
