The two people squatting on the ground raised their heads and shook their heads solemnly:
"No crystal found."
Logically speaking, it is absolutely impossible for a zombie with superpowers to be without crystals.
Lu Yan squatted down and began to observe the torn zombie brains that were dissected by Ren Yu on the ground, and stretched out his hand towards Ren Yu.
Ren Yu was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing and quickly handed him the dagger in his hand.
Lu Yan rummaged through the stinky brain, and then picked out a black piece that was only the size of a child's little finger.
Lin Wanwan quickly used her powers to clean the rotten flesh stuck on it.
Ren Yu felt a little embarrassed, put a touch of dark red on his face, and scratched his head uncomfortably.
Lu Yan held the crystal in front of his eyes.
It is different from normal crystals. It is opaque and does not have the texture of glass. It is more like random gravel picked up on the ground, and its volume is much smaller than normal zombie crystals.
Lu Yan put the crystal into the space, stood up and said:
"Dig out the other crystals as soon as possible, as much as you can dig out."
Now it is certain that these zombies have all undergone secondary transformation. No matter what the people who created them want to do, they have no good intentions.
Ren Yulin and the other two quickly cut open the zombies' heads. The skulls of these zombies were extremely brittle and could be cut open easily.
After cutting open several heads in succession, Ren Yu suddenly raised his voice:
"Look at this."
Lu Yan walked over to take a look and found that the bones of these skulls all had the same characteristics. The cartilage of the upper jaw had been drilled, and the bones on the back of the head had also been opened. A few bone nails were roughly hammered in and fixed at will.
The first two had their heads smashed by the mud, so they were not obvious.
The latter few are obvious.
Lin Wanwan guessed:
"So the reason why they cut their cheeks open is not for some bad taste, but to make it easier to manipulate the crystals in their skulls?"
But once the zombie's crystal is dug out, it will immediately turn into a real corpse.
How did they manage to dig out the crystals so that the zombies could still move?
Lu Yan glanced at it and then looked away:
"Speed up and dig out everything you can."
He is not a scientific researcher, he specializes in technology. No matter how long he looks here, he will not find out what is going on. It will only be a waste of time.
It's better to dig out all the crystals and take them away to prevent those people from coming back to recycle these crystals for secondary use.
When the crystal was dug to 90%, a military vehicle suddenly drove up from behind and Qi Yang came back.
As soon as he got out of the car and saw the corpses on the ground, a look of shock flashed in his eyes.
He was only gone for an hour at most, and when he came back it seemed like all the trouble had been solved.
Qi Yang quickly suppressed the surprise in his heart and strode towards Lu Yan:
"Thank you for your hard work, has everything been resolved?"
There is no need to ask about things that have already been guessed and waste each other's time.
Lu Yan shook his head:
"We've just solved the problem on the surface, I don't know if there will be any trouble."
Qi Yang was already very satisfied. Lu Yan helped him solve a big trouble and prevented many people from getting hurt.
"Then there is nothing we can do. We have to rush on our way as quickly as possible. We can only block it with soldiers, and the water will cover us."
Qi Yang shook his head with a wry smile and gestured to the soldier driving behind him, indicating that he should go back and notify the convoy to start moving forward.
After looking around, I suddenly realized that someone was missing, so I couldn't help but ask:
"you……"
Qi Yang hesitated for a moment, suddenly not knowing what to call Mu Tang, and finally said bluntly:
"Where is your partner?"
Although Lu Yan's expression looked like nothing had happened, as the one who had taken advantage, Qi Yang still asked shamelessly.
Lu Yan turned around and shouted:
"Mu Tang!"
"Coming!!" Mu Tang responded, bulging his cheeks and jumping out from behind the mud, and walked up to Lu Yan with a bump on his back:
"What's the matter?"
Lu Yan shook his head, and then heard Qi Yang exhale obviously with relief.
Lu Yan and his party did not belong to the Tongcheng base in the first place. The two students were still civilians, and his attitude towards them was not very good.
If someone had an accident because of helping him, no matter how thick-skinned Qi Yang was, he would not be able to see Lu Yan or Lieutenant General Lu.
As soon as Lu Yan looked at this man's face, he knew that he was thinking wildly and morally attacking himself again, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
It seems that there is still a difference between this person and Qin Zhen.
It was Qin Zhen who had already put his arm around his shoulders and laughed out loud, "Brother, you go first, I'll take the back seat!"
When he thought of Qin Zhen, Lu Yan inevitably started to feel gloomy and asked in a low voice:
"What's going on behind the scenes? Has the fog cleared?"
Qi Yang shook his head, and inadvertently glanced at the small piece of bandage exposed under Mu Tang's sleeve from the corner of his eyes, and his eyes narrowed.
Looking up, he saw Mu Tang holding on to Lu Yan's arm and acting coquettishly, with a normal expression on his face. It didn't look out of the ordinary.
After some mental struggle, Qi Yang suddenly sighed and decided to pretend he didn't see it.
"Maybe it's just a common scratch." Qi Yang comforted himself.
During this period, Lu Yan had been secretly observing his expression, and when he saw this, he also looked away.
Mu Tang's injury could not be healed immediately. Hiding it would only arouse suspicion. It would be much safer to show it openly and openly.
Qi Yang has a typical upright soldier's mind. He doesn't have so many conspiracy theories in his mind, and he is not suspicious. Even if he sees the bandage as long as Mu Tang's face is normal, he will not doubt it.
The next step is to solve this ice wall. Even if the hole dug out of the mud has expanded a lot due to Lu Yan's ionization explosion, it is still two meters high from the ground.
The car can't get through, so it has to be dug up.
Lu Yan originally wanted to use his superpower to melt the wall directly, but Qi Yang refused and said with a wry smile:
"Don't waste your superpowers. Take the time to recuperate. We're still one or two kilometers away from entering the city. We don't know what we'll encounter then. We have drills."
Lu Yan stopped forcing it.
At this time, the large army also arrived in front of the ice wall, and Qi Yang ordered them to rest in place before the ice wall convened.
Many survivors got out of the car and leaned forward to look at the ice wall tens of meters high. Their eyes were filled with shock, but more importantly, they were filled with fear and despair.
Some mentally fragile people held their heads on the ground and murmured:
"What kind of monster is this? What's going on in this world? Can it really survive?"
Words like these spread among the team, and everyone's heart began to waver, and feelings of uneasiness and suspicion soon enveloped the team.
Qi Yang knew that if things continued like this, riots would easily occur, so he thought about it and immediately ordered the distribution of food.
After all, compared to those illusory despairs, the things in hand are more secure.
