"Huh~ We're home!" Zhang Xu took a deep breath and looked at the artificial island not far away. His eyesight could already see the vague figures on the island. There were two people following him, who were really his parents.
Mutated creatures are encountered more and more frequently along the way. Relatively speaking, evolved zombies are everywhere in the city. The space for human beings to survive is getting less and less, and the evolvers along the way are also showing their talents. If it weren't for Zhang Xu's high genetic level, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to reach Hena Province along the way.
While thinking deeply, Zhang Xu and his parents also walked onto the artificial island. Yao Yuanyuan and others on the island naturally waited for a long time. They spent a month before departure and more than a month when they came back.
It is already December 20th, and in a few days, it will be the Chinese New Year.
You know, the zombie virus breaks out during the Spring Festival. That time is the peak of the flow of people. The most difficult time to get through has been passed, and the new year is about to begin.
Today is the winter solstice, and everyone is busy preparing dinner and preparing supplies, both for Zhang Xu and the others, and also to prepare for the New Year.
After collecting things for a year, most of the ready-to-eat foods are either rotten and moldy, or have been scavenged, and the rest are things that can be stored for a long time, such as rice, flour, etc.
After Fan Yucheng, Yao Yuanyuan and others experienced Fan Hua's seizure of power, the relationship between the two parties became cordial, and the two parties contacted each other to say hello. Luo Guanghan was also shameless and asked for some combat readiness military resources locations close to the artificial island.
Fan Yucheng naturally did not hide them. Anyway, these materials were too far away and the transportation work was extremely dangerous. After the apocalypse, the population dropped sharply. If food was distributed to the living people, they would be able to live a full life within 10 years.
Since there are some supplies close to the artificial island, simply give Zhang Xu and the others a good impression, and there is still the possibility of cooperation in the future.
As soon as he returned to the artificial island, Zhang Xu was treated as a 'coolie' and was responsible for transporting these materials together with the low-level evolvers. Of course, he only had to ensure the safety of the journey.
The artificial island has also undergone great changes. The waterway project has been completed. A long road leads directly from the artificial island to the shore of the artificial lake. This is a floating platform built by tens of thousands of rubber boats.
If there are zombies approaching, the infrared sensor will automatically be transmitted to Sun Tianhao and others in the control room. They only need to press a few simple buttons, and the hundreds of floating platforms will separate and eventually slowly dock around the artificial island.
At the same time, the underground laboratory on the artificial island is slowly being constructed. These days, while Zhang Xu is away, batch after batch of new people have arrived.
Becoming an evolver requires examination. It takes a long time to see people's hearts. Zhang Xu also took a long time to do so, which made the people who had followed him become evolvers.
He didn't have time to remember the faces of these people one by one. There were enough evolvers on the artificial island, and there were more ordinary people left, which he could manage easily.
Of course, this is not what Zhang Xu should worry about. After all, he has been a hands-off shopkeeper for so many days. He can't handle so many things when he comes back. He still has to rely on Yao Yuanyuan to take care of everything.
Yao Yuanyuan did not force Zhang Xu to take charge of the artificial island. He wanted to take charge of it, so Yao Yuanyuan naturally let him go. Now Zhang Xu only needs to play the most powerful role. He will go wherever he needs to deal with.
After settling in with his parents and having lunch, Zhang Xu also finished what he should do. He sat blankly outside the cabin by the lake, looking at the foggy sky in the distance. There was a thin layer of ice on the lake, and even at noon, it was still snowing.
Even if Zhang Xu was wearing short sleeves, the severe cold could not make him feel any cold. After spitting out a mouthful of white mist, he lay on his back and looked at the woman behind him.
It was Yao Yuanyuan. She had a smile on her face. She felt Zhang Xu's gaze. She walked to Zhang Xu's right side in small steps and followed her to lie down on the snow. The two just looked at each other.
"Brother Xu..."
"Hmm~ What are you doing? Are you shy when you see our parents..."
"No, no." To outsiders, Yao Yuanyuan is like a goddess with ten thousand years of ice. To Zhang Xu, she is like a well-behaved cat.
Yao Yuanyuan rested her head on Zhang Xu's arms, lying on the ground together and watching the flying snow falling from the sky. She really wanted to spend the rest of her life like this.
Zhang Xu's hand slowly moved closer to Yao Yuanyuan's left hand, and the two felt each other's eyes. Yao Yuanyuan's left hand did not escape, and she allowed Zhang Xu to caress her gently. Instead, her right hand pressed down on Zhang Xu's shoulder, and her whole body was pressed against Zhang Xu in an instant. Before he could react, Yao Yuanyuan's lips were already touching Zhang Xu's. combine.
After a long time, the two separated, and Yao Yuanyuan looked at the 'uninvited guest' with a complaining look on her face. Wu Fanyang was a little nervous and hesitantly said: "Um... shouldn't I be here?"
"Get out of here, Liu Yuan asked you to come!" Zhang Xu covered his face and looked at Wu Fanyang, who shook his head and nodded awkwardly.
Yao Yuanyuan sat up, a little angry, but didn't say anything.
"Brother Xu, your parents are looking for you." Wu Fanyang coughed lightly, and when he saw Zhang Xu getting up, he took a few steps back unconsciously.
"Okay, okay, I got it. Let's see how scared you are, am I, the captain, so scary?" Zhang Xu waved his hand impatiently, then raised his eyebrows.
Wu Fanyang immediately said seriously: "Yes, captain. If anyone dares to come and disturb the two of you, I will be the first to stop him, hehe." After saying that, he immediately turned around and ran away. Zhang Xu smiled.
"Yuanyuan, do you want to continue..."
"Oh, I've already been discovered. Why come here? I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Liu Yuan and the others." Yao Yuanyuan held Zhang Xu's hand with an angry expression on her face, and then said: "You pervert, I'll go there tonight Your room is not ready yet..."
Time passed by, and when they returned to the villa in the center of the island, Zhang Xu and the others had already cooked a table of sumptuous dishes, including the most important dumplings.
The crowd sat together in a lively atmosphere, and a few people performed impromptu performances to bring laughter to everyone. The most important thing was to let the new members realize Zhang Xu's identity. He is a busy man who has to lead the entire artificial intelligence team. Island base.
After the meal, everyone began to talk about the past in the last days. Zhang Xu looked at the smiles on the faces of the people around him and felt happy for the first time.
At this moment, Sun Shuoyan came to Zhang Xu. He stood upright, waiting for Zhang Xu and Liu Yuan to finish talking. He stroked his glasses from time to time, a little shy.
After watching Liu Yuan off, Zhang Xu looked at Sun Shuoyan beside him and smiled without saying a word.
…
There was an explosion, and the bone-spurred zombies flew out. After smashing into several high walls, the hard pale bone spurs broke one after another, the brains were shattered, and a bright green gem rolled to the ground.
Zhang Xu slowly picked up the Hope Crystal on the ground. His eyes were like an ancient well. Suddenly, two black shadows came out from behind him. He struck a sword with his backhand. The black sword blade seemed to be able to tear apart the space. The two speed zombies followed Zhang Xu's inertia. It passed by and fell to the ground with a muffled sound. The broken parts of the two heads were neatly aligned and fell to the ground with a snap.
After clearing away the zombies, he looked back and saw that he had arrived at his destination.
During the apocalypse, Sun Shuoyan has been living peacefully on the artificial island, and he has also begun to study the organic combination of viruses and plants.
Viruses change plants and become very powerful after mutation, but many people ignore their advantages, that is, can mutated plants be used as one of human food?
Mutated organisms can also be eaten. If this is the case, then if edible plants mutate, they can also have edible value.
Sun Shuoyan is committed to this, hoping to cultivate species between mutant plants and ordinary plants, so that viruses and plants can reach a delicate balance, which can also increase production and save costs.
Ordinary crop seeds have been tried. They are too weak and cannot withstand the zombie virus. Most of them have become mutant plants, causing a little trouble for others.
So a few days ago, Sun Shuoyan asked Zhang Xu to return to his and Sun Tianhao's residence, hoping to get the fruit and vegetable seeds in their laboratory.
These seeds are cultivated after ultra-high particle radiation. They are specially designed to cope with harsh environments and improve the soil. Therefore, even in the cold winter, as long as there is moisture and nutrients, they can germinate and grow.
There are more and more people in their artificial island base, which can accommodate tens of thousands or even more. It is not enough to just collect supplies as a supplement. Sooner or later, everything outside will be looted, and only by cultivating it yourself can you be satisfied. foot.
The research value of these vegetable and fruit seeds is greater than the commercial value, and they have been modified through genetic engineering and are very powerful in themselves. With a small amount of virus, it is estimated that reasonable results can be achieved.
The above are all assumptions made by Sun Shuoyan after discussing them with Zhang Xu in detail, and Zhang Xu agreed immediately. Only Zhang Xu can do such dangerous things of traveling across mountains and rivers.
Walking into the villa area and looking at everything familiar, Zhang Xu recalled how he led everyone to meet Sun Tianhao. He walked gently into the courtyard and followed Sun Shuoyan's instructions to easily find the genetically modified seeds. .
After entering the quantum device, he looked at the holographic map in front of him, his eyes were a little dull, and then he smiled. Zhang Xu wanted to see his old friend.
Zhang Xu moved very fast. In just a few hours, he arrived near the largest police station in Luoh City.
After observing for a while, Zhang Xu was surprised to find that the scale of the police station had expanded a lot, and the residential buildings around it were also beginning to be equipped with new ones. In Luo H City, apart from those fierce military bases, this gathering place may be the safest. Evolved zombies and mutated creatures are becoming more powerful, and ordinary people are becoming more and more dependent on these firepower.
So after Zhang Xu swaggered in, he wandered around their grocery market and found that there were actually people selling weapons and firearms here. This was a novelty for Zhang Xu. You must know that Yuan Feihong was not allowed to sell weapons. , firearms control is particularly strict.
All the fear of zombies still comes from the lack of firepower.
After wandering around for a long time, Zhang Xu frowned. Yuan Zhengwei should have known that he was coming. After all, the patrol robots near the gathering place should have informed him. Why didn't anyone come out to greet him?
Zhang Xu always felt that something was wrong, so he went directly to the office building here, only to find that it had been converted into a residence. He asked a few people to inquire about it, but found that Yuan Feihong was dead! And he was killed! When I asked again, it took too long to know the details.
When he heard the bad news, Zhang Xu stood there for a long time without saying anything. When I thought of Yuan Feihong, I also thought of Yuan Zhengwei. Zhang Xu got angry! His murderous intent had already made several people around him so scared that their legs and feet were weak and trembling.
He just walked straight to the new office floor, where the current people in power lived. He must know something!
