Hearing that there was something strange about the sternum of the general-level zombies, Zhang Heng, who had been walking towards the big tree, stopped and walked back with a frown.
"There's something weird about the sternum? What's going on?"
Wang Yu handed the bone to the young man, and at the same time, the abnormality on the surface of his left hand faded away and returned to its normal appearance.
"The color is just wrong. I feel it may be because the secondary virus content inside is not up to standard, or it may be the final impact caused by some subtle changes in this timeline.
After taking the bones and inspecting them, Zhang Heng-457 said nothing. Two seconds later, an electric arc flashed on his silver fingertips, crushing the bones in his hand into pieces.
Except for some bone marrow leakage, there was nothing abnormal inside.
"It is probably due to the butterfly effect caused by changes in some details. After all, this is only the first general-level zombie we have found. The sample is too small and the ingredients are accidentally high."
While speaking, Zhang Heng dropped the bone fragments, turned around and continued walking towards the big tree.
The general-level zombies are already turtles in the urn, so there is nothing to worry about anymore. What needs to be dealt with now are the two people hiding in the tree.
When Jidonghai was escaping just now, he clearly saw the existence of Ma Long and Zhang Jike.
Standing under the big tree where the two soldiers were hiding, Zhang Heng raised his head with a calm expression on his face.
"You two, do you want to come down on your own, or should I invite you to come down?"
As he spoke, the young man's silver mechanical arm was already flowing with energy, and arcs crackled on the surface, showing great power.
I thought that the two people in the tree were going to pretend to be deaf and dumb to deceive themselves, but to Zhang Heng's surprise, the other party seemed to quickly understand the situation and responded.
"We'll come down right now."
Without any hesitation, the two soldiers jumped from the tree one after another and landed in front of Zhang Heng.
Looking at the two unusually 'cognizant' soldiers in front of him, Zhang Heng-457's eyes flashed with a hint of caution, and he asked.
"Who are you two, and what are your intentions in staying here?"
Zhang and Ma looked at each other, and Ma Long finally answered.
"We are soldiers. We originally planned to go to the stronghold to join the large army, but when we passed here, we heard a strange noise. We thought it was a distress signal from the survivors, so we came here to check..."
Ma Long's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and the expression on his face did not change much.
However, it was this reaction and answer that made Zhang Heng's doubts even more intense.
"The two of them were staying in the tree before, and they should have witnessed most of the incident. The man that the general-level zombies wanted to attack just now must be one of theirs..."
"You clearly saw the ball lightning generating device on my left arm, but you didn't show any surprise or surprise. This reaction alone is very uneasy..."
Ma Long and Zhang Jike were also worried.
Of course they knew that the young man with a mechanical left arm in front of them was no ordinary person. They wanted to explain, but the initiative was not in their hands.
It wouldn't be fun if he said the wrong thing and made the other party unhappy, raising his hand and blasting himself with a thunderball.
Therefore, the two of them practiced the silent chant in a tacit understanding, and assumed the attitude that they would never speak another word without asking.
Seeing that the two people opposite him stopped talking after answering his questions, Zhang Heng narrowed his eyes and had another guess in his mind.
"Logically speaking, humans in this timeline should not have the ability to develop a ball lightning generating device, but they behave so calmly. Could it be that they have seen a ball lightning generating device before?!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Heng-457 couldn't help but feel shocked, but he quickly shook his head and denied his guess.
"Impossible! Even in my timeline, the technology of the ball lightning generating device is a cutting-edge weapon that only Fatty Wang can produce. Moreover, the materials in it are even more precious. They have never seen it before..."
"So calm, maybe you're pretending?"
With thoughts flashing in his mind, the young man turned his left arm, increasing the intensity of the voltage lingering on it.
During the crackle and explosion, the arc instantly became several times thicker, like little snakes climbing and swimming, spitting snake messages at Zhang Jike and Ma Long.
But this is not enough.
Flip with one hand, Zhang Heng-457 bent his five fingers, and in just half a breath, a restless thunderball the size of a soybean gathered in his palm.
The reason why he made this move was not to show off his strength or to intimidate Zhang and Ma. He just wanted to use the simple physical phenomenon of ball lightning to distinguish whether the two opponents were pretending to be calm.
Sure enough, after Zhang Heng showed off the ball lightning, both Zhang Jike and Ma Long unconsciously took half a step back.
But just when the young man thought that the other party was really pretending, Ma Long suddenly turned his head, with a trace of uncontrollable excitement on his worried face.
He didn't speak, but the expression on his face clearly told Zhang Heng the fact that the young man opposite was not afraid of the ball lightning in his hand!
Seeing the excitement on Ma Long's face, Zhang Jike rolled his eyes helplessly, but still didn't take the initiative to speak. He just stared silently at the electric ball in his palm.
"Aren't you... afraid?"
457 raised his palms unwillingly, as if he wanted to let the two people opposite him see more clearly.
Ball lightning, this is ball lightning!
You humans, whose civilization level is still at level 0.7, are you not excited at all when you see this kind of scientific miracle?
Zhang Jike and Ma Long looked at Zhang Heng, whose expression was gradually changing, and looked at each other confused, then nodded in unison and answered in unison.
"Fear!!"
"You don't look scared..." Zhang Heng-457 twitched the corner of his mouth, silently complaining in his heart, and then removed the ball lightning in his palm.
Seeing that the other party had lowered their guard, Zhang and Ma were slightly relieved, but they still had no intention of speaking proactively and quietly waited for Zhang Heng to ask.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Heng said: "Why aren't you two surprised at all when you see the ball lightning on my arm?"
"Well……"
Zhang and Ma were silent at the same time. The other party's question was so straightforward that they didn't know how to answer it for a while.
To be honest, the two of them were actually a little surprised when they first saw the young man killing everyone among the mutated corpses.
But after staying in the tree and looking at it for a long time, it felt like it was just that.
After all, they had seen Hamilton use the Death Cannon in Yunlong Town!
Although Zhang Heng-457's martial arts were gorgeous and highly entertaining to watch, they were still more than a little inferior to the power of the old man's devastating shot.
Seeing that the two people did not answer his question immediately, 457 was even more sure of his guess. He walked slowly and started to circle around Zhang and Ma.
"I should have thought that the three of you who found this place must not be simple people..."
As he said that, 457 turned his head and glanced at Jidonghai who was lying on the ground.
The meaning is very obvious, it is like saying: Stop pretending, I have seen through your true identity a long time ago!
Feeling the sudden change in the other's attitude, Zhang and Ma looked at each other again, and both caught the same confused emotion in the other's eyes.
Did the mysterious young man with a mechanical arm across from him misunderstand something?
But thinking about it, Zhang and Ma are not fools, so naturally they will not speak frankly.
Zhang Heng-457 didn't seem to want the two to answer, and was still talking to himself.
"Originally, by knowing your names, I can reveal some positive information to you. This will not only be good for me, but also help you save your lives in this apocalypse..."
At this point, 457 changed the topic.
"But unfortunately, some minor accidents occurred, resulting in the loss of this benefit, so even if I know your names, it will be of no use."
"It's the same as saying it or not..." Zhang and Ma complained silently in their hearts. The expressions on their faces did not change, and they still maintained the unpredictable look before.
However, just when 457 was about to continue his tirade, a scream suddenly came from the quiet rear!
The three people's attention was immediately attracted by the scream, and they looked up and behind them.
I saw Wang Yu kneeling on the ground at some point, with his back turned to the three people's eyes, and he knelt on the ground and shivered.
457 at first thought it was the exhausted general-level zombie that suddenly attacked Wang Yu. However, after taking a closer look, he found that the opponent was lying on the ground fine, and even his posture and movement had not changed. He suddenly felt strange and raised his leg towards Wang Yu. Go.
As he walked, he asked.
"Wang Yu, what are you doing? Why did you shout so loudly suddenly? It scared me..."
Before 457 could finish speaking, Wang Yu suddenly turned around!
The long hair that was originally tied back became loose at some point and spread messily in front of her head, covering most of her face.
But Zhang Heng and others still caught a glimpse of a horrifying scene in the gaps of these hairs.
At this time, Wang Yu looked ferocious, with bulging black meridians on his face, and there was no trace of his previous charming appearance.
She has actually been infected by the secondary virus and is transforming into a zombie!
"She was bitten?!"
Ma Long shouted subconsciously and took half a step forward, apparently intending to help Zhang Heng subdue the opponent.
But then he thought of the young man killing everyone before, raised his brows, and silently took back his steps.
"Impossible, she has not participated in the battle before..."
457 was also confused. Looking at Wang Yu who suddenly turned into a zombie, he felt a little confused.
"That's an indirect infection! I see that she directly touched a general-level zombie with her hands just now. She must have been infected with the secondary virus at that time!"
Zhang Jike, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
"But..." Zhang Heng was just about to refute that Wang Yu's physique was not ordinary. The next second, the woman who was still kneeling on the ground rushed towards him howling like a hungry tiger pouncing on food!
