Li Zhong reacted very quickly. As soon as Lao Xu's voice fell, his right finger hit the enter key hard.
As the tip of Li's middle finger fell, the video speed returned to normal.
"Did you see it? This beast obviously heard the noise in the car." Old Xu said.
"Well, this shouldn't be surprising, right? Ye Hao and the others must have made some noise in the car to attract the beast's attention."
At the time of the incident, Lao Xu issued several orders, one of which was to order the cabs of each vehicle to install protective steel plates.
In this way, the installation process will inevitably make noise.
Facing Huang Shuang's rebuttal, Lao Xu was not in a hurry: "Yes, it can indeed be explained here, but if you continue to look at it later, this beast has remained in this state. It has not attacked and has been snooping on the roof of the car!"
Just now something suddenly became urgent. Everyone was busy thinking about how to avoid the beast's attack and didn't pay attention to anything else.
Now that you have calmed down and looked at the surveillance video, the behavior of the beast on the roof is indeed a bit strange.
"Yeah, Lao Xu, if you say so, this guy is really something special."
Touching her chin, Huang Shuang probably felt that it was not appropriate to use the word "special" on a beast. Huang Shuang was thoughtful.
At this time, after a long silence, Tang Xiaoqiang suddenly said: "That's right! Compared to the restlessness of the zombies next to it, the beast on the roof of the car is too quiet. Judging from its appearance, it is obvious that there is still movement in the car."
"That's the problem!" Lao Xu waved his finger: "At this stage, I gave at least three instructions to Zhicai, all of which emphasized that they should keep quiet! And judging from Zhicai's reply, they acted very carefully. Then why are the beasts still crouching on the roof of the car and snooping?"
Old Xu Mu asked a question.
Tang Xiaoquan immediately replied: "There are only two possibilities. One is that this beast is simply crawling on the roof of the car in a daze."
Shaking his head, Huang Shuang didn't want to deny this possibility.
Are you kidding? Zombies don’t even have a brain. How can they be in a daze under such a lively “feast”? What nonsense!
"What's another possibility?" Huang Shuang asked closely.
Looking into Huang Shuang's eyes, Tang Xiaoquan said word by word: "Another possibility is that the hearing of animals is different from other zombies!!"
The voice was not very loud, but it shocked Huang Shuang's ears: "What do you mean?"
Nodding, before Huang Shuang finished speaking, Tang Xiaoqiang responded firmly as if he had read the other person's mind: "The reason why this beast climbed on the roof of the car and kept listening is definitely not a meaningless act. There is no accident for such a beast." The hearing should be quite outstanding. Even when it goes up to the roof of our car, it is always in listening mode. So I think"
"What do you think?" Huang Shuang frowned.
"We may have encountered a new evolutionary zombie again."
The already cold atmosphere in the control room became even more solemn as Tang Xiaoquan shouted.
"Listener!" Li Zhong suddenly said.
Lao Xu and Huang Shuang both looked sideways, with incomprehensible expressions in their eyes.
Tang Xiaoquan smiled: "Haha, this is the name of a zombie in a biochemical game, but it is appropriate for Xiao Li to use it on this new zombie."
He grinned, but in his heart Tang Xiaoquan didn't seem to be impressed at all.
If you think about it carefully, from the early "walkers" and "runners" to the later "leapers" and "climbers" and now the "screamers" and "listeners", various mutated and evolved zombies have grown up. Young shoots are springing up like bamboo shoots after a rain.
This made Tang Xiaoquan very worried.
"Hey, this is really troublesome! Has it been a month since you last met the "Screamer", Lao Xu? You met the "Listener" again. This beast is mutating faster and faster." Li Zhong A strong color flashed between his eyebrows.
Tang Xiaoquan waved his hand: "That's not necessarily true, maybe it's just a coincidence."
Tang Xiaoquan disagreed with Li Zhong's statement that the beasts mutated faster.
Because judging from the information they have so far, there is no evidence to prove that the beasts are mutating faster.
It can only be said that in the short term, our team encountered two different zombie mutations.
Of course, there is one thing that Tang Xiaoquan did not say clearly: that is, the mutation and evolution of zombies may have been proceeding rapidly from the beginning.
It’s just that our team has never encountered it.
"Fortunately, the number of these beasts is not large. Also, I don't know if you have noticed, but the direction of these beasts' mutations is the strengthening of the human body's own mechanism."
"What do you mean?" Li Zhong didn't quite understand the point of Huang Shuang's expression.
Tang Xiaoquan said in a deep voice: "What Lao Huang wants to say is that although the beast has mutated, it still has not escaped from the host's body. For example, the "Runner" virus has been transformed to enhance the host's running ability, "Leaper", "Climber" "They are respectively aimed at jumping and running abilities, and the above are all leg enhancements. "Listener" and "Screamer" have one ear and one throat, which belong to the boss respectively. As for "Berserker", that is at the level of the mental system. All of these None of them exceed the skill range of the host body. Is this what you mean, Old Huang?"
Chong Huangshuang gave him a questioning look, and the latter nodded immediately: "That's absolutely correct, that's what I want to say! Everything can never change without departing from its original origin. The evolutionary system of animals is nothing more than hands, feet, head, and body. I think we can base it on this. , make necessary assumptions and precautions.”
"Yes, but if that's the case, do you think the cranial nerves of animals will also evolve in the later stages? Join them to transform and evolve wisdom." Also frightened by his bold conjecture, Li Zhong subconsciously covered his mouth.
There is no doubt that as far as evolved zombies are concerned, no matter how their ears, nose, throat, legs, and feet evolve, they are just enhanced humanoid puppets in the end.
As long as he doesn't have intelligence, humans have every way to deal with him.
But if, as Li Zhong said, zombies one day evolve to believe in a thinking system, it will be a disaster for mankind.
Just imagine, when these beasts begin to use human-made swords, guns, sticks, aircraft and cannons, and skillfully apply various military techniques to plan an all-out attack on humans, then the human civilization that has lasted nearly a thousand years since its birth will probably be wiped off the earth.
Li Zhong stopped talking, and everyone in the room became silent.
Obviously, Tang Xiaoquan and others had thought of the worst possible scenario.
In the end, it was Lao Xu who broke the deadlock: "These are not what we are considering now. If we really get to that point, we will do whatever we want. Now just do our best!"
After finishing speaking, Lao Xu picked up his handheld platform and gave the order: "Everyone has worked hard in the battle just now. The team members who are not on actual duty should go back to rest. The team members who are responsible for guarding should not make big noises when doing things. That's it! Over!"
After ending the call, Lao Xu greeted Huang Shuang, and Tang Xiaoquan hurried back to the rest area.
After all, it’s a long road and there’s no need for so many people and me in the control room.
