Chapter 18: Zombie World (5)
She felt quite lonely alone, but she knew that she could only go on this path alone. Even if she found a companion, she could only take care of her for a while. Although she also had other companions, such as Erxin, she has now become her mimic life and can be summoned. Unfortunately, the alien energy in this world can swallow spiritual energy, so it cannot be used.
Hao Xin has been walking for 10 days and has eliminated many mutant plants and animals. He also collected blood samples from various mutant animals and plants, intending to study it carefully. On this day, she finally discovered a different place.
This place should be a city. Hao Xin approached carefully and found that there were people, or zombies. After thinking about it, Hao Xin did not go in rashly. She was not sure about the situation of these zombies. It was obvious that she could not rely on disguised smells or something. She found the entrance and exit and kept squatting there.
After waiting for a few days, Hao Xin could only eat what was in the space. Finally, he saw the zombies leaving the city, a 12-person team. Hao Xin restrained his breath and followed him quietly, and found that they were hunting. The target of hunting was alien beasts. Do they also want to eat alien beasts? If alien beasts can be eaten, why should they still eat humans?
Hao Xin has never understood this point. After thinking about it, Hao Xin accidentally discovered a huge strange beast nest when he came, awakening the strange beast, then attracted the direction of the zombie team, hiding his breath and hiding.
"Damn it, it's a giant elephant." A zombie roared a few times, but Hao Xin couldn't understand it at all. Their voice seemed to be simple, different syllables with two pronunciations, which was quite mysterious.
Facing the huge beast like a hill, even the zombies dare not fight directly. They spread out and carefully dodge and use their ability to attack. Hao Xin found that their abilities looked similar to those of superpowers, but they were not superpowers, because although there are many elemental abilities, they could not escape the five elements.
The abilities of these zombies are obviously not the Five Elements, and they look very similar to poison, but the poison-type superpower is actually a mutation of the wood-type superpower. The zombies used not to use poison, but rather it was more like a kind of devouring.
Fortunately, the strange beast that Hao Xin found may be at the top of the world. Anyway, the attacks of these zombies only hurt the fur to the strange beast. Soon, they were all found and overturned. This strange beast that looked like an elephant did not eat them, but just trampled them all to death. Hao Xin secretly hid a zombie.
After the strange beast destroyed the surroundings and left, Hao Xin left the place with the hidden half-dead zombie, found a cave, cleaned up and took out some instruments. She needed to study what was going on in this zombie.
"You are a human, a escaping human!" The zombie quickly woke up. Seeing Hao Xin, she suddenly noticed her identity. She roared twice and mobilized her ability to erode the bonds on her body.
"Wake up, let's cooperate with me to do the experiment." Hao Xin walked over and saw her movements. She thought about it. She pulled a vine from a chaotic area and tied her tighter. Sure enough, she could no longer erode. Haha, this energy that invaded the small world cannot directly face the power of chaos.
"What is this? Why can't it be swallowed? Who are you?" Hao Xin couldn't understand Huhuhuhu's words at all. It's impossible to find out the news, so she should just study it.
Hao Xin first extracted the blood of the zombie for testing and found that the genes of the zombie have completely changed. Although they still maintain human form, they are essentially considered alien. Their genetic sequence is completely different from that of humans, without any similarity. Although the blood is still red, the composition is not the same as that of humans.
She actually didn't need to find it strange. In the next few days, Hao Xin conducted various tests on the zombies, including the other party's mental body, um, or other names, pseudo-spiritual body, anyway, the meaning of the spiritual body and soul is similar.
In order to do the experiment, Hao Xin even boldly cut her flesh and performed the experiment for her. She endured the pain and gave the other party a little of her mental power, and then discovered something.
Zombies eat human flesh not because they only eat people, but only humans can bring them enough life energy. A piece of human flesh the size of a palm is worth the energy of a mutant beast of 200 kilograms. Moreover, there is another point that their pseudo-spiritual body is an existence that combines spiritual energy and alien energy. It is not very stable and is in danger of collapse at any time. Only human mental power can help them stabilize it.
As for other alien beasts, although they also mutated into existence like zombies, they do not have a pseudo-spiritual body, but have a brain nucleus. This brain nucleus Hao Xin checked was not a crystal nucleus, but an existence similar to a spiritual body. If the brain nucleus is placed in other flesh and blood, they can control the flesh and blood. In other words, the evolution of the strange beasts is actually perfect than that of zombies. However, zombies seem to not directly swallow the brain nucleus, but will be swallowed by the brain nucleus and become a complete alien beast.
Therefore, the zombies could only eat people. Looking at the zombies who had lost their rationality and were left with beasts, Hao Xin cut her directly, dug out her brain core, and put it into a special container. There were several brain cores inside, all of which were accumulated along the way.
Although the alien beasts evolved better than zombies, it’s a pity that the brain core has no intelligence but only instinct, or both are failures. This is chaos, not the source of these alien energy in this world. However, since it is an energy invasion, it should also have a source, so it still needs to be found. I wonder if the Mirror Knowledge has any effect on such foreign objects.
Print out the research results and put them in a place. Maybe when you encounter this kind of energy in the world in the future, you can study it in depth.
The situation of zombies has been clarified, so I can go directly to save people. However, Hao Xin also plans to investigate the underground here. Because by knowing the situation of zombies, she can know the importance of humans to zombies. She is not sure how often zombies need to eat people, but it is certain that it should not be too long.
