Listening to the team members discussing the behavior of zombies, Lin Qingqing was speechless. Strictly speaking, zombies are not a completely new species, they are just a mutated existence.
Whether it's instinct or wisdom, they are all things they had when they were "human beings".
But when it comes to the origin of this behavior, even Lin Qingqing herself can't tell.
But these are not important. They just bring the news back. As for the reason, let the experts study it.
Next, their task is only to confirm whether this phenomenon is an exception or common.
"Xiao Lingdang, find a few more level 3 zombies to see if this is the case," Lin Qingqing turned to Wen Ling and said.
She originally planned to kill a level 3 zombie for a look, but now that zombies are gathering like this, she can't do it casually.
"Okay, Captain!"
Wen Ling responded and showed Qu Xingchi another way.
Ten minutes later, everyone came to another place. This place used to be a boarding school. Needless to say, the zombies inside must be a quite large group.
Qu Xingchi parked the car in an open space in the distance. There were no high-level zombies around, only a few scattered first-level zombies.
After the car stopped, Wen Ling began to use her powers to check the situation in the school.
Lin Qingqing had a reason to choose this place. With so many zombies in the school, there would definitely be more than one level three zombie. She wanted to know what would happen if level three zombies gathered together.
"Captain, there is indeed more than one level three zombie inside," Wen Ling said, "There is one in the dormitory, one in the cafeteria, and one in the stadium."
She counted the ones she detected one by one. The three zombies were all about the same distance apart, and each one was also surrounded by many second-level zombies.
But not all Level 2 zombies will follow Level 3 zombies. Except for those who choose to "surrender", there are at least a dozen Level 2 zombies wandering around alone throughout the campus.
"It's really strange. You said that without humans, what would these zombies eat?" At this time Lei Min raised an unexpected question.
It’s not just about eating. Zombies won’t die if they don’t eat for a long time. But how do they evolve without humans as food?
They don't have an answer for this either.
"Let's go and look at another place," Lin Qingqing said to Wen Ling.
Qu Xingchi started the car in response.
In the following time, the Qingmang team visited almost the entire mission area.
Thanks to the zombies' previous gathering behavior, they can always find relatively safe paths in this place where zombies gather.
It wasn't until it was getting late that the Qingmang team finally completed the inspection of the main film area.
At this moment, everyone is resting in a half-renovated building.
"Thank you for your hard work, little bell!"
This mission was basically completed by Wen Ling alone. Although she was already at Level 2, the little girl was still very tired from the whole day of exploration.
She still needed her guidance on the way back, so Lin Qingqing decided to rest here for a while and let Wen Ling sleep for a while to calm down before leaving.
Their current location is a four-story building. Everyone is staying on the third floor. A few scattered first-level zombies outside have been dealt with.
Wen Ling had explored the surrounding environment before, and found it to be relatively safe. It was quite far away from the territory of those third-level zombies.
Lei Min and others made a fire to cook, while Lin Qingqing sat aside and sorted out the information they had found out by the light of the fire.
Wen Ling was sleeping next to her. The little girl was exhausted today and fell into a deep sleep, snoring softly in her sleep.
She slept until the moon was high in the sky. When she woke up in a daze, she realized that it was already very late.
"When is it? How long have I been asleep?" Wen Ling rubbed her eyes.
"It's already night, it doesn't matter, we will
I'm just going to stay here for one night and go back tomorrow," Lin Qingqing said, stroking the ends of her hair that had become raised while sleeping.
Qu Xingchi and Lei Min were already asleep, but Yin Yaxiu couldn't sleep and kept vigil with Lin Qingqing.
Wen Ling leaned against Lin Qingqing and ate something before she completely woke up.
Now, she couldn't fall asleep even if she wanted to, but it wasn't cold even sitting in this early summer night, so the three of them sat around a bonfire, chatting.
Until the sky turned white, Yin Yaxiu began to yawn sleepily.
"You take a nap first, and we'll leave when it gets completely bright," Lin Qingqing said to her.
"What about you? You were up all night."
"I'm fine. I'll catch up on some sleep in the car later."
The higher the level of the superpower, the better the physical and mental strength will be. Occasionally staying up all night is nothing to Lin Qingqing.
Seeing that she was in good condition, Yin Yaxiu didn't refuse, hugged her bag and fell asleep.
Lin Qingqing was about to ask Wen Ling if she wanted to rest for a while when she heard her surprised voice.
"Captain, there's a situation!"
"what's the situation?"
Seeing Wen Ling's mysterious look, Lin Qingqing quickly stood up and carefully pulled her around the three people on the ground to the other end of the third floor.
"There are two zombies fighting over there!" Wen Ling pointed in one direction and said excitedly.
"What level?"
"They're all Level 2!"
"Please tell me specifically."
Lin Qingqing couldn't see it and could only listen to Wen Ling's dictation. She had never seen such a situation before and was very curious.
Why do they fight? Is there a grudge or a fight for prey? Could it be that there is competition among zombies?
Wen Ling described to Lin Qingqing the scene she "saw".
The two zombies are not just fighting casually, but are fighting for life and death.
They are both energy systems, one is water and the other is fire. The two opposite abilities are constantly colliding, which is particularly obvious in the thin light of dawn.
Even Lin Qingqing could vaguely see the light of fire.
"What else is around?" Lin Qingqing looked forward and asked suddenly.
"There are several first-level zombies around."
"Nothing else? Like living people or animals?"
"Nothing but zombies."
Wen Ling said with certainty.
She originally thought that the two zombies were fighting for prey, but she scanned the area with her powers and found no creatures other than zombies.
"That's strange. Is it because fire and water are incompatible?" Lin Qingqing couldn't figure out the reason for the moment.
Too curious, the two of them stood here motionless, watching the two fighting zombies, wanting to see what would happen in the end.
Perhaps because of its slightly higher level, the fire zombie finally defeated the water zombie.
The water zombie was finally knocked to the ground by it and struggled unwillingly, trying to extinguish the flames on its body, but its power had been used up before, so it could only howl unwillingly until it was finally burned into a ball of ashes by the fire.
