Chapter 610: Zombie Civil War
“Huh? Haven’t you set off yet?”
After Wang Tao and his team returned to the base, they went directly to the Hope Research Institute. When Qu Shilin saw them, she suddenly looked surprised.
Didn’t Wang Tao say he was going out today? It's already evening, why haven't you set off yet?
Seeing Qu Shilin’s doubts, Wang Tao burst into laughter.
"We are back."
"Uh... I thought you would rest outside!"
Qu Shilin scratched her head, she thought Wang Tao and others came back to rest. .
Wang Tao didn't say anything more, but directly handed the ancestor virus research information he just obtained to Qu Shilin.
"This is..." After Qu Shilin took it, he opened a page at random, and then got stuck immediately.
Shuahua——
She quickly turned back a few pages eagerly but gently. After confirming that this was indeed what she was looking for, Qu Shilin was so excited that her body was shaking a little, and she quickly looked at Wang Tao , I’m afraid I’m dreaming.
“This, this is part of the data of the ancestor virus!”
“It seems that we have found the right one.”
Wang Tao smiled and shrugged, and Ding Yuqin and others also All smiled.
Qu Shilin's confirmation also made them relieved. After all, they were not professionals, and they could not guarantee that this was 100% research data on the ancestor virus.
"Oh my God! You really found it! And compared with the information you gave me before, this information is completely studied from another angle. There is almost not much in the two information Repeat! This is exactly what I need now... Oh my god..."
Qu Shilin was so excited that she was a little incoherent.
Although she asked Wang Tao to help find these things before, she didn't have high hopes. She would be thankful if she could find them. It didn't matter if she couldn't find them... But she didn't expect that Wang Tao would really find them. I found it on the first day I went out!
This is a good sign! Maybe she will be able to develop a zombie virus elimination potion soon!
"You can sit down wherever you like, but don't leave yet. I'm going to verify these information!"
After Qu Shilin was so excited, she hurriedly said hello, and then rushed directly into the laboratory.
Wang Tao shrugged, and the others waited for more than ten minutes before Qu Shilin came out of the laboratory.
"Finally confirmed, there is no problem with these information!"
The smile on Qu Shilin's face could not be concealed at all.
"As long as it's no problem, let's go back first."
Wang Tao stood up, but was stopped by Qu Shilin.
"Wait, can you tell me who compiled this information? There is no indication on it..."
"Oh, this person's name is Wang Jing... ”
Wang Tao briefly talked about what happened before, including the fact that the lord zombie evolved into a disaster zombie after eating Wang Jing’s corpse.
After hearing what Wang Tao said, Qu Shilin opened her mouth. She was obviously confused. Her thoughts were the same as Wang Tao's before - didn't she expect that this could evolve?
"Wang Jing... I will write his name on the future antidote to the zombie virus!"
Qu Shilin clenched her fist and said.
"Huh? Can the antidote be developed already?"
Wang Tao was suddenly surprised.
"Ahem, not yet. I have to study this information carefully and do some experiments before I know if I have a chance to develop an antidote to the zombie virus..." Qu Shilin shook his head first, and then said The face said firmly, "But judging from the current situation, there is a great chance! I won't sleep tonight and work overtime to see if it works. I will give you news tomorrow morning!"
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news and we'll go back first."
Wang Tao smiled and patted Qu Shilin on the shoulder.
"Okay, I won't send you away. I have to hurry up and study." Qu Shilin immediately got into the laboratory again.
“What a workaholic...”
Wang Tao smiled and then returned home with everyone.
When entering the door, Lan Yulian suddenly said:
"Wang Tao, you said that if you really develop an antidote to the zombie virus, you can turn all the zombies outside back into humans, then we are now Killing zombies...isn't it equivalent to killing humans?"
This statement made everyone pause for a moment.
This logic... sounds reasonable?
Wang Tao was also stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head.
“Not to mention that today’s zombies are not equal to humans at all. If you don’t kill zombies, zombies will kill you, so you have to kill them!”
“And even if Qu Shilin can After developing an antidote, it shouldn’t be possible to turn zombies that have mutated for more than a year into humans, right? If it can, then this is not an antidote, but a miracle medicine! , even if this antidote really has that It's so powerful, you can turn these zombies into humans, but everything has a price, and the antidote will definitely have certain limitations. I guess the biggest limitation is that the raw materials are relatively expensive, and there is no way to produce too much antidote at one time. There are at least billions of zombies in the world. How many medicines are needed to transform all of them into humans..."
"So, you may be a little too optimistic."
"..."
After listening to Wang Tao's words, Lan Yulian opened her mouth. She felt that what Wang Tao said made sense. Maybe it was because she saw Qu Shilin so excited today and seemed to be able to develop an antidote soon, which really made her a little optimistic.
“You are still too kind!”
Wang Tao smiled and pinched Lan Yulian’s little face.
But as a wet nurse, it is normal to be kind.
"I hope Shilin can really develop an antidote..."
Lan Yulian held Wang Tao's hand.
……
The next day, early morning.
Wang Tao had just gotten up when Qu Shilin received a voice message.
"Wang Tao! Are you awake? I've been busy all night, and I already have preliminary research results!"
Hearing these words, Wang Tao didn't even have time to eat, so he just packed up and went to the institute. I ate on the way and brought one to Qu Shilin.
"Wow! You brought me breakfast, thank you!"
In the research institute, Qu Shilin saw the breakfast and quickly thanked her happily.
Although the institute also has breakfast, the quality is not as good as that at Wang Tao’s home. When she is free, if there is someone at Wang Tao's house, she likes to come to Wang Tao's house to have a meal.
While eating breakfast, Qu Shilin looked at Wang Tao and his group and said:
"After a night of research, I have now come to two conclusions. One conclusion is good news, and the other conclusion is also good news. But it's not that good... So, which one do you want to hear first? ""Of course that's good news!"
Wang Tao spoke without thinking.
“The good news is that I am now 100% sure that using these ancestor virus research data, it is possible to create an antidote to the zombie virus!”
Qu Shilin clenched her fist fiercely and said.
“Niu beep!”
Hearing this, everyone was very happy. If an antidote can be developed, the biggest threat to mankind from zombies will be gone!
“But I have to tell you that the zombie virus antidote I am talking about is, to be precise, a serum that can resist the zombie virus. It cannot transform zombies that have mutated into humans. But after being injected with serum, humans can become immune to zombie virus infection..."
After Qu Shilin finished speaking, Wang Tao and the others looked at each other.
They also discussed yesterday that if the antidote can turn the zombies outside back into humans, then whether killing zombies now counts as murder.
Now after listening to Qu Shilin's explanation, there is no doubt - killing zombies is not equivalent to killing people, because people who become zombies cannot become humans again! This serum has a preventive effect...
"Is this the bad news..."
Wang Tao asked.
He thinks this news is also good news, which can avoid many problems on human relations. If we could really turn the zombies outside back into humans, it might be troublesome in the future. After all, who doesn’t have a few relatives and friends? Everyone wants their relatives who have become zombies to turn back into humans.
Moreover, there must be those who are kind, compassionate, and even some saintly people among humans. If they feel that the zombies outside are also human beings and want to rescue those zombies, maybe something will happen that will harm the current normal human interests...
So, unless all the zombies in the world can be turned back into humans instantly, then this is indeed a good thing.
Otherwise, to a certain extent, it is a good thing that the zombies outside cannot turn into humans...
But to Wang Tao's surprise, Qu Shilin shook his head. .
"No, what I just said is the good news. The not-so-good news is..." Qu Shilin glanced at Wang Tao, looking a little embarrassed, "The data of the ancestor virus is not enough for production. The zombie virus serum is released..."
"...You mean, I have to continue to look for research information on the ancestor virus, right?"
"Hmm!"
"...Then this is indeed not a good one. News."
Wang Tao smiled helplessly.
Seeing Qu Shilin's behavior just now, he thought he would soon be able to develop the zombie virus serum, but Qu Shilin told him that the information was not enough and he had to continue looking.
Yes, I was so happy earlier. As long as there is not enough information about the ancestor virus, the good news Qu Shilin said before is almost equivalent to nothing.
“Ahem, although I have to continue to trouble you to find the ancestor virus data, I can clearly assure you that if you can find data similar to yesterday’s volume without too much duplication in the future, , then about 4 more copies will be needed to form a complete ancestor virus data! By then, I will 100% be able to develop the zombie virus serum!"
"..."
Looking at Qu Shilin, who was patting her chest and looking confident, Wang Tao was speechless.
What she said is that we also need data similar to yesterday’s volume without duplicate content. In other words, if the volume is large and the data is not repeated, then only one copy of the data may be enough. However, if you are unlucky and find duplicate data, there is no upper limit...
But as Qu Shilin said, this is not bad news, at most it is not so good news. Because Wang Tao can at least see the progress bar. If you're lucky, you might even be able to find it right away.
"Okay, I will continue to look for it."
Wang Tao nodded.
Even if he doesn't look for these ancestor virus data, he will still go out to hunt zombies. He has to prepare for promotion to the seventh level.
Yesterday's disaster-level zombie body did not have the power of the primary law. It was a hard job to gather 100% of the power of the primary law. He will next hunt a large number of sixth-level zombies and strive to meet the six basic conditions required to advance to seventh-level. Hunting zombies and finding the data on the Ancestral Virus go hand in hand, so just do it together.
"Thank you, thank you!"
Qu Shilin felt that this was troublesome to Wang Tao and was quite embarrassed.
“I’m not helping you, I’m also helping everyone and myself.”
Wang Tao chatted with Qu Shilin for a while, then stood up and said to everyone:
< br>"Then let's go to the second destination."
The awakening fruit is not ripe yet, and he will wait until it ripens in two days before going. Wang Tao is going to the planned destination first to see if he can be as lucky as yesterday and find a piece of research data on the ancestor virus.
"Okay!"
"Be careful on the road and be sure to pay attention to safety!"
"We will."
After bidding farewell to Qu Shilin , a group of people took the Golden Eagle and left Changhe Base again.
"The temperature is warming up very quickly!"
The moment they passed through the barrier, everyone felt the change in the temperature outside. Although there is no way to compare with the temperature inside the barrier, it is at least two or three degrees warmer than yesterday.
"At this rate, it will probably take less than a few days to return to the 25 or 6 degrees that are most suitable for humans, right?"
"Is it because of the heavy rain? As the saying goes 'It's not cold when it snows, it's cold when it turns into snow', we are here When the snow started to melt, a sudden corrosive heavy rain melted all the snow. Now there is not even a trace of snow outside, so it is not so cold, and the temperature rises very quickly..."
“That makes sense!”
Everyone was chatting and laughing all the way as they headed towards their second destination.
On the way, the golden eagle did not fly too fast. Everyone stared at the ground carefully to see if there was any sixth-order lord.
After the heavy snow stopped and another corrosive acid rain fell, there were obviously many more zombies on the ground, and their levels were not low. You could see fifth- and sixth-level zombies everywhere. But most of them are ordinary and elite zombies, and level six zombies are still very scarce.
However, this does not mean that there are fewer zombies among the sixth-level lords. Based on past experience, since both ordinary sixth-level zombies and sixth-level elite zombies have appeared in large numbers, the sixth-level lords must have appeared earlier. , the quantity is definitely not small!
The reason why Wang Tao and the others have never encountered the sixth-order lord is probably because the zombies of the sixth-order lord are hiding in nooks and crannies to secretly summon other zombies!
Under normal circumstances, there will only be one lord zombie within a certain range. Unless there are higher-level zombies to suppress them, these lord zombies will compete for territory. At present, the seventh-level zombies have not appeared yet, and the disaster-level zombies are not gregarious... Then no other zombies can suppress the sixth-level lord zombies, and these sixth-level lord zombies will compete for territory.
Since he is a lord, it is definitely impossible to fight alone, so Wang Tao has reason to speculate that those sixth-level lord zombies are most likely recruiting younger brothers to strengthen their own team so that they can easily compete for territory...
< br>Just when Wang Tao told others his guess, the golden eagle suddenly screamed.
"Huh? There are six-level lord zombies in the distance, more than one, and they are fighting? Come on, come and join in the fun!"
Chirp——
The golden eagle responded and immediately flew away into the distance.
Wang Tao and the others' eyesight was far worse than that of the golden eagle. The golden eagle's eyes were simply the mirror of a telescope. After a while, everyone finally discovered the zombie it mentioned.
There are three level six lord zombies on the ground, and they each lead a large number of other zombies to form a zombie army.
At this time, the zombies of the three zombie legions were fighting, and the scene was a bit chaotic.
