Wit

After Zhang Yi returned to the shelter, he sat in the living room to rest.

The women of the family kindly served them hot drinks and food to help them replenish their strength.

Zhou Ke stood behind Zhang Yi, gently help him massage, release the pressure.

But this time, although he successfully repelled the tide of corpses, Zhang Yi's face did not have any relaxed color.

On the contrary, a cloud of suspicion hung over his mind and made his face sad.

Such a look, let is hee hee haha and Uncle you brag Xu fat man feel strange.

"Boss, why don't you look happy?"

Everyone found that Zhang Yi's expression was wrong, and they cast concerned eyes.

"Yes, what were you thinking? He looks so serious."

"If there is any problem, we can discuss it together!"

Zhang Yi looked up at everyone, took a deep breath and explained:

"We took out more than half of yesterday's body mass. But the wave of corpses that came today, the number of zombies is only slightly more than yesterday."

"This means that the zombie virus is spreading very quickly, and it is possible that those who die are becoming zombies."

"If this is the case, sooner or later, the entire city of Tianhai will be completely occupied by zombies!" I can't imagine how we were going to live then."

Zhang Yi's words made everyone's smile disappear.

Their faces were equally worried as they looked down to think.

Yang Xinxin sat in his wheelchair, took a slow drink of the cappuccino, then said:

"But at present, this tendency is not obvious. Otherwise, they wouldn't just send thousands of zombies to attack us every time!"

"But," she said, her expression unusually serious, "if we don't get to the bottom of the existence of these zombies, they're going to be a big problem."

Lu gave a deep sigh.

"If only it were summer! Those zombies will all rot and turn into skeletons."

"The scariest thing is not the number of them, but the fact that they seem to have an operator, so they are not mindless monsters," Zhang said.

"Plus they're so hard to kill, they can only be burned or dismembered. This adds to the problem of solving them."

"So the key is to solve the manipulators behind them?" said Yang Xinxin.

Zhang Yi smiled: "Easy to say! Where can I find it? Every time we get halfway through, they run away."

"I can't even tell if there are manipulators among the dead. After all, powers..."

Zhang Yi spread his hand: "full of uncertainty, who is difficult to use common sense to infer."

They're less likely to go deep into the subway.

Because there must be more zombies out there.

Even though their fighting power is extremely strong, Zhang Yi will not leave the protection range of the shelter unless necessary.

At the time of everyone's opinions, Zhou Ke, standing behind Zhang Yi, spoke softly.

"Actually, I have a guess."

Zhang Yi subconsciously raised her neck and tried to look behind her, but her sight was covered by two curves and she did not see Zhou Ke's face.

'Oh?

Zhang Yi motioned Zhou Ke to continue.

Normally, Zhou Ke 'er, as a doctor, was not directly involved in the battle plan.

But in this case, her expertise as a doctor was on display.

She knows more about the virus than anyone at the shelter.

So her speech is of great reference value.

Zhou Keer got Zhang Yi's encouragement, he opened his mouth and said:

"I've been studying the bodies of zombies for the past two days, and I did find something very strange like a virus."

"It can withstand extreme cold, even at minus 100 degrees Celsius, and can invade the nerves of organisms and control the body."

"But..."

Zhou Ke 'er frowns slightly.

"It doesn't fit the modern biological definition of a virus. It's supposed to be something between a virus and a cell, more like a cell, but like a virus, it can take over the host's body and control and reproduce."

Zhang Yi, as a poor student who threw away knowledge after graduation, listened to the clouds in the fog.

"Can you make it simple, please?"

There were only a handful of people in the house who could understand what Zhou Ke was saying.

At least three men have no idea.

Zhou Ke 'er smiled sheepishly.

"After the end of the world, biology was redefined by gamma rays. Let's just call it the zombie virus for now."

"In short, it shows some of the habits of colonies and even social animals."

"When zombies are in a crowd, they act with consistency and even show some intelligence."

"But in the body parts studied in the lab, even the reproductive instinct is reduced, and the stress is also reduced."

"So I suspect that this virus may be controlled in a way similar to biological populations, where there is a parent virus that can somehow remotely control them."

Zhang Yi sat up straight from the sofa, "Remote control?"

Zhou Ke Er quickly waved his hand: "Of course, it does not mean a very long distance. For example, animals can communicate through smell. And this mutated virus must also have a way of conveying its message."

Zhang Yi said: "You mean, as long as the mother is killed, these infected zombies will also die?"

Zhou Ke 'er shook her head.

"It's hard to say. At least it will not become what it is now, able to operate on a large scale and with some intelligence."

Wise!

These two words sounded in Zhang Yi's mind like thunder in general!

His eyes lit up and he finally discovered the reason for that feeling of disharmony!

"I think I understand something!"

He stuck his hand in his hand and explained to the crowd: "Have you noticed that the attack of the body tide in these two days seems to be fierce, and it seems to have a certain wisdom."

"But in fact the way the hordes fight is quite naive, and they always choose to retreat after some of the dead zombies."

"This feeling is almost like a two or three year old child, slowly learning to speak. Just take it one word at a time."

Zhang Yi said so, we also feel very reasonable.

The hordes still look stupid, and even if they are attacked by musketeers, they will not choose to disperse.

But just know to avoid the dimensional door of Zhang Yi, and choose to run away when aware of the bad situation.

There's wisdom, but really not much.

"Wait a minute, Zhang Yi! I kind of understand what you're talking about."

The one who spoke was Liang Yue.

She crossed her arms and her eyes were cautious.

"You mean we could be up against intelligent zombies."

"It could have mutated after the human died, or it could have taken over and become the parent."

"Anyway, he's just getting his wits about him, and he's still learning how humans fight."

Zhang Yi thought in his heart that such speculation was very possible.

That way of fighting is not like a normal human intelligence, but it's not completely brainless.

"If there is such a thing, it should be something that can be called a corpse king."

"After all, we have identified two conditions for obtaining powers. One is near death, and the other is the thrill of something like ice."

"It is not impossible, then, to acquire powers after death."

Zhang Yi had a brief flashback in his mind, and he didn't tell anyone about the secret.
