Dimensional Codex

“This ghost place looks really oozing.”

Looking at the street under the sun, Fang Zheng shook his head and whispered to himself.

As Shidou Kei said, after the sun rose, all the zombies who were wandering around disappeared. The whole street was empty, and even half of the animals could not be seen. To be honest, this kind of scene doesn’t feel very good.

If this is a city that has been abandoned for a long time, it might be better. The overgrown streets may seem disordered and in a mess, but at least it is a sign that nature is active . But now, the city has maintained what a city should have for a long time, but when you look around, you can’t even see it. This feeling can even make people feel that this city is just a set of props. , A “scene map” similar to “Chu Sect’s world”. This can make people feel a little uneasy or even fearful, as if they were the only one left here……some kind of props. I have watched a lot, and even suspect that this World itself seems to be nothing more than a big toy box, and right now, the Master of this box seems to have given up the toy.

Although it seems that this empty street can allow Fang Zheng do as one pleases to play top grade speeding, in fact, the danger here is not low.

It can even be said…very high.

“Whis–!”

As Fang Zheng was walking past the corner of the street, suddenly a small black figure suddenly jumped from the eaves beside him. Moved towards Fang Zheng with open arms and threw it down. Its speed is quite fast, almost the same as the cheetah that preys on it. In the blink of an eye, the black figure came to Fang Zheng’s body in this way—then a lasing arrow pierced through his body, screamed and flew upside down and nailed it to the wall next to him, only to see that The black shadow struggled a few times, and then gradually lowered his head to silence.

“Sure enough, it’s HUNTER.”

Fang Zheng walked to the wall and squinted at the monster in front of him. It also looks like a zombie, but unlike the previous ones The zombie acting at night is different. The zombie’s skin is covered with healed scars. It is a little short, with very long arms, but its two legs are quite short. It seems to be closer to the form of a gibbon.

However, what Fang Zheng values ​​more is the scars on his body.

“Sure enough, is this only an evolutionary entity?”

Fang Zheng took out his personal terminal, scanned the monster in front of him, and then compared the data.

“How about? Big Brother?”

At this time, Kuro-chan also arrived at Fang Zheng’s side, and he took a closer look at the monster, and looked at Fang Zheng curiously. Personal terminal.

“It seems that my guess is correct. So far, all mutation species we have encountered are evolutions of zombie… You see, this zombie is also caused by direct sunlight. There are signs of skin ulceration, but its wounds are healed, which can already explain the problem.”

Said till here, Fang Zheng lifts the head, look at the sky in front of you that exudes the scorching heat The sun.

He and Kuro-chan have been searching all around the station for a whole morning, during which Fang Zheng and Kuro-chan also encountered several strong mutation bodies. However, unlike what Fang Zheng guessed, after contacting these mutation bodies, Fang Zheng was surprised to find that these mutation bodies are not social creatures as he thought. On the contrary, these mutation bodies all act alone, and they seem Possess a certain kind of territorial consciousness, and will attack creatures that enter their territory.

Not only that, through the Dissection and scanning of these mutations, Fang Zheng also discovered another law. That is, these mutation species are all “evolved” from ordinary zombies. As for the source of their evolution… Although Fang Zheng does not want to admit it, at present, there is only one answer.

That is the sun.

So far, Fang Zheng has encountered a total of four mutation bodies. All of them showed signs of skin ulceration after exposure to the sun and then recover completely. This also means that these mutation bodies evolved into the current state after being irradiated by sunlight to produce secondary mutations after they became ordinary zombies.

Now Fang Zheng is just not sure whether this evolution is conscious or just accidental. After all, the evolutionary directions of several mutation species he saw before are not the same, and the important thing is…

“If you collect samples, these are almost enough.”

While talking, Fang Zheng extended the hand and cut a small sample from the corpse in front of him. Then put it in a glass box.

“Let’s go back, Kuro-chan.”

“Okay, Big Brother.”

Heard Fang Zheng’s words, Kuro-chan feels comfortable A piece of chocolate was thrown in the mouth, and then nodded.

When Fang Zheng and Kuro-chan returned to the stronghold station, it was already completely new. I have to admit that Cui and Shidou Kei are still very attentive. At least when Fang Zheng walked in, looking at the bright and clean hall and the clean and tidy furniture in front of him, the mood was much better than before.

“You are back, Fang Zheng big brother, Kuro-chan Onee-san…”

Seeing Fang Zheng and Kuro-chan coming back, Cui also hurriedly greeted him. Looking at the two with a smile.

“I’m back, Cui.”

Looking at the girl with cat ears in front of him, Fang Zheng smiled and extended the hand to touch Mo Cui’s head and rubbed it smoothly. Her soft cat ears.

“How is the situation? Any response?”

“Kayo has not responded yet, Shidou Kei Young Lady is helping…”

“I see.”

Fang Zheng was not surprised by hearing this. The city has become like this now, it is like hell. Fang Zheng is convinced that if you just pull a survivor in Resident Evil, whether you can live a day in this ghost place is a problem. Of course, Alice may be an exception…maybe not an exception, who knows?

“I’m going to do some research work next. You and Kuro-chan should go to rest first.”

While talking, Fang Zheng walked to a closed compartment next to him. ———This was originally used as a storage room for train maintenance equipment, but now Fang Zheng has used it as his own laboratory.

After closing the door, Fang Zheng took out five glass boxes from his pocket and placed them on the table. Then he opened his personal terminal and began to carefully scan and study the viruses inside.

Fang Zheng is not a biologist. In fact, his understanding of biology was at a very basic level when he was in college. But this does not mean that he has been in vain for so many years. Especially after mastering the innate talent of Chrono Dragon, Fang Zheng discovered that many things he looked at like Heavenly Book before, and now they can understand with no difficulty… Well, thanks to this innate talent, Fang Zheng has been in his life. First time I tasted the joy of Xueba.

And now, he can finally “apply what he has learned”.

Among the five samples at the moment, two of them were extracted by Fang Zheng from the “common zombie”, and the remaining three samples were from three different mutation bodies. Now Fang Zheng wants to see how this World “justifies itself” in a completely mixed “biochemical world”?

Fang Zheng was a little surprised by the test results.

After comparing the “basic virus” samples collected from the common zombie with the “mutation virus” samples collected from the mutation body, Fang Zheng was surprised to find the structure between the two A completely different change has taken place, even something completely different!

If the “basic virus” is compared to a handful of soil, then the “mutation virus” is like taking the soil and burning it into bricks, making clay sculptures or even making ceramics. Although the “raw materials” are all the same thing, the “finished products” themselves are very different.

Not only that, these “mutation viruses” themselves are still not in a complete state. After analysis and research, Fang Zheng found that these viruses are still undergoing further “evolutionary upgrades”, but because their hosts are killed After that, this evolutionary process was interrupted.

Finally, Fang Zheng finally figured out what was going on with the virus in this biochemical world.

According to current observations, the initial “basic virus” will spread through water, air and blood and infect other people. At the same time, mutations are quickly produced, which erode the host’s body. The human immune system will react fiercely to this, and the two sides will start fighting. At first, the immune system may have the upper hand, but in the end the “basic virus” will destroy the immune system, kill the host, and convert it into zombie.

At this stage, zombie will be full of a strong desire to eat due to viral activities, thereby attacking other living lifeforms. At the same time they are afraid of the sun and try to avoid it.

But if zombies are unlucky enough to be exposed to sunlight, then their “basic virus” within the body will begin to madly carry out secondary mutations to resist the damage caused by sunlight. From the current point of view, their mutation itself seems to be random. Take the several mutation bodies that Fang Zheng encountered before. Although they all have the ability to resist sunlight, their methods of action, hunting methods, and body types are far different.

Not only that, Fang Zheng also discovered that during the second mutation process, the evolution of these viruses is irregular and completely random.

It’s as if the result of the calculation is 9, no matter whether you choose 4+5, 1+8, or 3X3, as long as you can get the result of “9”, there is no uniformity in the middle process!

From a certain point of view, this virus is somewhat similar to Zerg, but the difference is that the evolution of Zerg is through fuse together. And the evolution of this virus is more like “throw a hundred dice, as long as there is a double six, then I win”…

In a way, this virus is better than T virus It also makes people headache…
