"How about it, were there any mutant beasts that attacked last night?" Xu Yi changed the topic.
The weather issue was directly bypassed.
If it's really cold, Xu Yi can go to the military camp again and pick up a batch of military coats that are very good at protecting against the cold.
Xu Yi had seen that kind of military coat when he was in the military camp, and even took a thousand sets.
Because the space is limited, otherwise he would definitely take more.
Although the camp now has electricity, it is only enough for ordinary electrical appliances.
In winter, there is definitely no way to use power-consuming equipment such as heaters and air conditioners.
When Xu Yi originally wanted to get his coat, he considered winter and never thought of using it at this time.
"He came for a while, maybe he saw that there were many of us, so he ran away. These beasts seem to be getting smarter and smarter. I wonder if there will be any high-intelligence mutations in the future, like the legendary orcs." Sun Wuzheng said with some worry.
Hearing Sun Wuzheng's words, Xu Yi couldn't help but smile.
"I didn't realize it, but you have quite an imagination."
"Judging from the speed of animal evolution, no matter how fast we speed up, it will be very difficult to achieve this step. In addition, it can't be that only mutated beasts are constantly evolving, and we humans are the only ones standing still, right?"
"When that time comes, we humans will definitely have enough strength to deal with it, so don't worry so much. Improve your combat effectiveness and at least be able to fight against any situation."
After speaking, Xu Yi patted Sun Wuzheng's arm and walked downstairs.
We still had to eat breakfast, so Xu Yi took out some mutated wolf dog meat and cooked it.
After breakfast, Sun Shoudao was polishing a gun.
"Commander, if these beasts still maintain their animalistic nature, they will rarely come out to look for food on rainy days. From now on, rainy days should be a good time for us to hunt them."
"It hasn't rained for so long, I thought it wouldn't rain again."
Xu Yi nodded, what Sun Shoudao said was quite reasonable.
Mutated beasts are less active during the day than at night. This is because their original habit is to forage at night.
Rainy days are really not a good time for animals to go out and look for food.
Because the smell will be washed away by rain, it will not be used to find and track prey.
Nowadays, most of these mutated beasts rely on their sense of smell to find their targets.
When it becomes increasingly difficult for them to survive in the wild, they will begin to move into cities.
Because there are a large number of humans in the city, and the mutated beasts in the city are relatively weak and easier to hunt.
After polishing for a while, the rain stopped.
So Sun Shoudao began to teach everyone basic boxing techniques.
It wasn't until noon that the Seven Killers Army arrived.
It rained in the morning, affecting the visibility, so their movement was slower.
Everyone was very excited to see these more than a hundred people in military uniforms.
After all, they have a natural sense of trust in soldiers and feel that with their presence, any difficulty can be solved.
"How's it going? Is the journey going well?" Xu Yi walked to Ling Yue's side and asked with concern.
"It went pretty well, except that I found that the infected seemed to be more flexible than before." Ling Yue directly told Xu Yi about a situation he observed on the road.
"Is it part or all?" Xu Yi asked quickly.
Because he knows that if infected people eat the meat of mutated beasts or evolved people, they will be greatly improved.
"Most, not a few. We think it may be related to the heavy rain that lasted from last night to morning." On the way here, Ling Yue had already discussed it with several senior officials of the Seven Kills Army.
Because the improvement was still obvious, it was naturally clear to them as they stepped on the infected person's body all the way.
"Heavy rain?" Xu Yi frowned even more tightly.
Xu Yi searched his memory and then asked: "I remember that it rained the day before the disaster, right?"
"Yes, it was raining, and the rain was very heavy. That night, I originally planned to go home, but later because of the heavy rain, I didn't go back." Ling Yue remembered it very clearly at that time, because she was at the beginning of the disaster. She also regretted it very much.
I regretted not going back in the rain that day, otherwise I would not have been separated from my family.
"Could it be that the rain caused the disaster?" Xu Yi couldn't help but take out a cigarette.
"Maybe, who knows. However, when we set out, I asked a few professors to collect some rainwater for testing. I don't know if there will be any results." Ling Yue couldn't answer this question.
However, she felt it was a possibility.
Xu Yi lit up the cigarette and took several puffs.
"Even if this is true, there is nothing we can do to stop the rain. Did anyone get caught in the rain along the way?" Xu Yi was more worried about what kind of impact this rain would have on ordinary people.
"No, our raincoats all have masks and are well protected. We even brought some for you."
"However, I met some survivors who returned to the city, and they were very badly wet. I sent ten people to follow them, and they will observe them closely." Ling Yue and Xu Yi reported.
"Well done." Xu Yi said with satisfaction.
Ling Yue is becoming more and more suitable for her current status.
If it were Xu Yi, he might not even think of sending someone to observe.
"No one in the village has been exposed to rain. I asked just now and no one has been exposed to rain. Okay, let's go back to the Steel City in case it rains again on the road." Xu Yi felt that we should not waste time. , we should hurry back to Steel City while it's still early.
In order to prevent it from raining on the way, everyone put on raincoats.
When Ling Yue and the others came over, many cars drove over from the road.
After all, there is still some distance between here and the blocked road, and it may waste a lot of time if you rely on your legs.
Having a car saves a lot of time.
They didn't need to carry any supplies, they were all in Xu Yi's storage space.
After reaching the congested road, they abandoned the car and walked.
Their cars were abandoned on both sides of the road to free up the road.
If this happens every time, it won't take long for them to clear the cars on the road and restore the road.
When he was about to enter the city, Xu Yi was attracted by a corpse hanging under a street lamp.
Because this body was the one he had seen at the tunnel stronghold last night, that of the person known as Professor Luo.
"It's strange. He was just a corpse when we came out. How come he has become an infected person now?" Ling Yue was surprised when she looked at the infected body hanging under the street lamp.
"You mean it was just a corpse before, not an infected person?" When asked this question, Xu Yi's face was full of worry.
