On the Ring Expressway, an inconspicuous silver-white off-road vehicle startled the birds flying along the road.
Lush branches and leaves climbed up the guardrails on both sides of the road.
Everything will be fine after the apocalypse.
Except people.
Lin An, the co-pilot in the car, calmly glanced at the car display.
Today is Tuesday, the forty-second day after the apocalypse.
There are still 39 hours and 59 minutes left before the zombie attack.
Zhang Tie's arm has been handed over to Colonel Chu for safekeeping.
The amoeba virus on the arm needs to be extracted, recombined, or tested.
According to Chu An, if the plan goes well, this will be as powerful a trump card as a meme doll, and it can be used unlimitedly.
Of course, the risks are also high.
Proliferating amoebas in large numbers is tantamount to dancing on the tip of a knife.
Once the extracted amoeba virus is leaked, the entire real world will suffer a huge disaster that cannot be resisted.
As for how to strip out the characteristic that the amoeba becomes stronger when it absorbs spiritual energy, Colonel Chu just mysteriously said that he would study it.
"Master Lin An..."
"Are you okay?"
"It is expected that in half an hour, we will arrive near the investigators of Wangjiang Military Region."
"The spies sent by our base have been keeping an eye on them."
Liang Shaoguang, who was in charge of driving, glanced nervously at Lin An in the passenger seat.
Although Lin An didn't look strange, but with the instinct of a beast, he always felt that there was a ferocious beast sitting next to him that chose people to devour.
"Nothing. We will get off the bus when we arrive 3 kilometers from the Wangjiang reconnaissance team."
After replying lightly, Lin An turned his head and looked at the guardrail passing by outside the window.
feeling irritated.
At the core of Immortal Shura's ability, Colonel Chu unexpectedly told him:
Zhang Tie can also be resurrected now, and he can even be resurrected as soon as the zombie wave ends.
The price is that you need to consume a lot of mental energy.
Of course, Xiong Hanzi who is resurrected in this way will completely lose his identity as an awakener and a player, and can only be resurrected with strength inferior to that of ordinary people.
Without the reversal of the causal sequence, his strength will permanently remain at the level before his awakening.
Even with an amoeba as a carrier, his strength cannot be enhanced.
the reason is simple.
Without the support of massive spiritual power, Xiong Hanzi could not resist the assimilation of Immortal Shura.
Just like a rebuilt inferior body, he couldn't control the powerful engine of Immortal Shura.
Once injured, he will soon become a new immortal Shura under the stimulation of enhanced strength.
There are two options, one is to resurrect Zhang Tie now, but he can only live in the safe zone for the rest of his life and become a weakling.
The other is to go to the [Secret Realm] to find the spiritual power of the owner, and bring it back to resurrect Xiong Hanzi.
Of course, you can also wait until you reach the third level before using the causal sequence.
Likewise, the second method of resurrection is just like what Chu An described before.
Zhang Tie who is resurrected in this way will perfectly surpass the third level limit. Once resurrected, he can be promoted to third level in a short time.
And with Immortal Shura as a carrier, his strength is considered unparalleled among the third level, and he can be a powerful help for himself.
Think again and again.
Lin An still chose to postpone his resurrection.
It's not selfish, nor does it mean that Zhang Tie must help him.
During this period of getting along, Lin An got to know Xiong Hanzi's personality very well.
He has always suffered from low self-esteem because of his lack of strength. If he knew that he had no strength after his resurrection, it would probably be difficult to accept it.
Lin An himself has experienced the pain of not having strength in the apocalypse.
It was a kind of panic-stricken despair.
Zhang Tie has always longed to be stronger and to protect Youwei with his own hands.
If he "woke up" and found that he had become a waste, he would probably be worse off than dead.
therefore.
As a brother, Lin An still resisted the urge to resurrect Zhang Tie now.
"Ding-ding-ding"
The car body shook and the bells rang.
Lin An smiled bitterly and glanced at the small bell on his wrist.
The thing was given to him by Youwei.
After the little girl saw her coming back, she secretly gave him the handmade gift she made.
The little bell made of brass is full of the little girl's little thoughts of longing for peace.
Of course, there is also Zhang Tie.
When Youwei looked at him worriedly and expectantly and asked why his brother hadn't come back yet, Lin An felt uncomfortable in his heart.
No one dared to tell Youwei the truth, and those who knew about it all chose to lie.
Looking at those worried and clear eyes, he seemed to have seen the night before An Xia left.
After telling Youwei that Zhang Tie was still outside on a mission, the little girl just left with her head down in despair.
The members of the patrol told themselves that in the days since they went to the amoeba copy, Youwei would come over and ask several times every day:
"Are my brother and Brother Lin An back?"
After not getting the answer she expected, Xiaowei would sit down on the swing set up for the children next to the core fortress in despair.
He was short, and his little feet swayed as he sat on the swing.
She would always sit there and stare blankly at the direction where her brother might come back.
Just sit and it lasts all day.
I was a little lost in thought.
When he remembered the description of Youwei by the base members, the scene that An Jingtian once said flashed before Lin An's eyes.
When I left, during the ten days of waiting.
An Xia also stood in front of the window every day, looking at the direction he left over and over again.
Like a helpless little beast, she is always frightened by the roars of zombies and awakened by explosions in the distance.
Every time I cover my ears and squat down in fear.
No matter what An Jingtian said, An Xia would always stand stubbornly in front of the window again, looking out the window expectantly.
An Xia...
Lin An murmured silently.
If there is anything deep in his heart that is helping him resist the assimilation of the body of fear, it is probably only his responsibility to his partners and An Xia.
Ever since it was raised to 21% in Body of Fear, the desire to kill has always filled the mind.
Even thinking is affected.
Even Liang Shaoguang could feel the leaked emotions.
Chu An was right, he couldn't stay in the real world anymore.
There are too many stimulating factors here, and the system has noticed him.
Just like a dynamite barrel that can be ignited at any time, with just a slight anger, the ignited desire will blow him and everything around him to pieces.
Like a truck stuck on a downhill road, once the fragile balance is disturbed, the progress of the Dreadbody will increase rapidly.
Lin An could imagine what it would be like to be lost in desire.
With his current strength, when he explodes with all his strength and is desperate, there is almost no awakened person who can resist him at this stage.
The body of fear's powerful repair ability is enough to transform him into a mobile natural disaster.
The more you fight, the stronger you become.
The more people you kill, the stronger the recovery power brought by the Terror Body becomes.
When completely lost in the desire to kill, he is equivalent to a combination of an amoeba and an immortal Shura.
The meme is out of control, the black dragon goes berserk, and even the ink spirit will die under his own hands.
When all disasters break out.
The real world is like the world of amoebas, and he is the beginning of a new round of doomsday.
Doomsday, and disaster.
therefore.
Only by going to the secret realm and breaking through to the third level can we hope to maintain this fragile balance.
