Zombie Apocalypse - Chapter 117
Chapter 0117 The Secret of the Mutant
After killing Masao Uemura, the crisis was not resolved, because the zombies downstairs were still climbing up. Fortunately, the D2 Giant zombies devoured each other and turned into D2 Giant Zombie Kings. At this moment, that King did not know where he had gone. Therefore, although these ordinary zombies were numerous, they could not immediately pose a threat to Qin An and the others. However, if they climbed onto the rooftop, then the entire 35-story building would be surrounded by a mountain of corpses. At that time, they would not be able to stop the zombies from advancing.
Vajra returned to his room and took the lighter and cooking oil, burning the broken bodies of Masao Murakami and his two subordinates.
Before they were burned, Qin An could see that their corpses were constantly growing new meat. The TC virus was truly amazing. It really created a completely new type of terrifying intelligent creature!
Qin An brought Vajra and the others back to his room. He did not have time to deal with Liu Wenli’s matters at this time. Qin An handed her over to Vajra to take care of. Then, he frowned and looked at the zombies downstairs on the balcony.
The group of corpses had already surrounded the building and piled up a mountain of corpses that was more than sixty meters tall.
After thinking for a long time, Qin An looked at the 32-story building opposite him and finally made a decision to go to the opposite side!
The zombie’s target was this building, so the 32-storey building opposite him was also more than 90 meters tall, and only a few meters below was piled up with zombies. In other words, it was currently safe.
Thinking of this, Qin An immediately went back to his room and mobilized everyone to tie the sheets, clothes and other things together into a rope.
In order to make this homemade rope more sturdy, Qin An and Jin Gang also jumped from the balcony to the other rooms and brought over all the items that could be used to tie the rope in all the rooms on the 30th floor and above.
Ten minutes later, a colorful 20-meter long rope made of various clothes, ropes, sheets, and the like, as thick as a football, was created with the efforts of everyone. In order to prevent it from scattering from the middle, Qin An also found a few bundles of plastic sheets from a family’s house, wrapped them around the rope layer by layer, so that he could rest easy!
Everyone was first carried onto the rooftop, and then the food they had collected before was wrapped up on their backs and tied to everyone’s bodies.
After everything was ready, Qin An ran for dozens of meters with a rope in one hand and jumped from the rooftop of the 35th floor to the rooftop of the 32nd floor!
Most of them hadn’t seen Qin An leap over the double storeys with their own eyes. Now that they saw him, they were shocked again! Is this still human?
After Qin An flew over, he quickly secured the rope, while Diamond also secured the rope on the other side.
Wang Hui and Wu Yan, on the other hand, carried everyone over the rope after the rope was done.
The two of them were mutants, and they were very powerful. It was also fast and stable for them to bring someone to climb the rope.
Vajra and Liu Wenli were the last to climb the rope.
When they reached the rooftop of the 32-storey building and looked at the 35-storey building, the mountain of corpses, which had already piled up more than half of the building, looked really frightening!
They were like monsters that grew out of the ground and were slowly swallowing the building’s entrance.
After everyone watched the meeting, Qin An brought everyone from the balcony into the building and met Xu Tianjiao and the others!
Actually, Xu Tianjiao and the others had also been paying attention to the movements opposite them. Seeing Qin An and the others crawl over, their moods were very nervous, but they didn’t know how to handle it properly. After all, the four of them didn’t understand Qin An’s group and couldn’t completely trust him.
But when they saw Wu Zhen tied up, their eyes turned red.
Xu Tianjiao took a knife and was about to come over to kill Wu Zhen.
Wu Tian and Lan Yue immediately came up to stop him. Both sides were very anxious, looking like they were about to start fighting.
‘”Miss Xu! Wu Zhen is our captive, so she naturally wants us to take care of her! When the Tibetan government’s plane arrives, I will let Wu Zhen board the plane with you. But you can’t touch a hair on her face until then, do you understand?” Qin An hurriedly stood in the middle of them and said to Xu Tianjiao, “Miss Xu! Wu Zhen is our captive, so naturally she wants us to take care of her. When the Tibetan government’s plane arrives, I will let Wu Zhen board the plane with you.”
Xu Tianjiao’s eyes were filled with anger, but she was a little scared when facing Qin An. She knew the abnormal strength of this man!
Jump 20 meters! Is this something a normal person can do?
Therefore, Xu Tianjiao could only endure it! At the same time, he became disgusted with Qin An.
Seeing her quiet down, Qin An ignored her and brought his men to the roof again. Then, he walked from the roof to the opposite side and jumped off the balcony to find three rooms to live in.
The structure of this building is the same as that of the thirty-fifth floor. In other words, the other side where they lived with Xu Tianjiao was blocked by the big wall in the middle.
Qin An felt that living apart like this would make Shuang Ran feel more secure.
Wu Zhen and Liu Wenli were placed in the same room as him and locked in two separate bedrooms. Both of them needed to be monitored, and he was the best supervisor.
The others moved into two other rooms. Everyone already had someone to live with, so there was no need to arrange for them.
Wang Huilin Jie, Wu Yan, Liu Yuanchao, and Liu Dongfeng, Wang Yunzhi, the three old partners, directly chose a room.
Wu Tian, Jin Gang, and Lan Yu were in another room, each living in his own bedroom.
It was already past nine o’clock in the evening.
Although they had just experienced a great change, they had already adapted to this kind of life. Once the danger was removed, everyone’s mood would calm down.
On this side, they couldn’t see the corpse mountain surrounded by the thirty-five storeys, which made everyone feel much more at ease.
After Qin An settled everyone down, he went to see Wu Zhen alone. He had many questions that he needed Wu Zhen to answer.
Wu Zhen was tied up on the bed. Seeing Qin An come in, she already understood Qin An’s intentions. She took the initiative to say,
“Are you here to ask about the mutants?”
Qin An nodded.
Wu Zhen said, “Actually, there weren’t many mutants, so the 20 or so mutants in Myriad Beast City became a terrifying power. This was also the reason why they were able to be so careless with their lives, but no one was able to subdue them.”
There were several other cities near Myriad Kingdom City’s base, including Worry-free City.
Although Worry-free City had a huge influence, as long as they lived well, they wouldn’t be bothered with anything else.
However, other cities were different. They still had good intentions and hated the evil deeds of Myriad Kingdom City. However, several joint attacks on Myriad Kingdom City ended in failure. It was precisely because of the existence of these mutants!
Jin Gang is by your side. I believe you already know the origin of the mutants. They are the carriers of the TC virus!
After King Kong and his father left our lab, we had a deeper understanding of the TC virus.
In fact, most animals have TC virus in their bodies, which makes them mutated beasts!
Mutated beasts are evolved from ordinary animals, and mutated beasts can continue to evolve. In Western Tibet, we named and recorded some known mutated beasts in order to understand them and find ways to deal with them.
In our research, we found that mutated beasts are not completely harmful!
Mutated beasts evolve in two ways:
One is to eat people or zombies. Eating people is just their hobby, and eating zombies allows them to obtain more T viruses, synthesize TC viruses in their bodies, and then evolve. This type of evolution will eventually turn them into terrifying beast-shaped zombies! Because C viruses can’t regenerate endlessly in the body, and their pouncing behavior doesn’t stop. We call these mutated beasts beast-shaped zombies, or zombie beasts.
Another way to evolve is interesting. Mutated beasts will choose to parasitize humans to evolve. This is because the TC virus in humans is more active and complex under the control of the human brain, which makes the mutated beasts who also carry the TC virus yearn for it.
It was a coincidence that the first rank 1 mutant appeared!
He was a warrior of the Tibetan Western Material Search Team!
He was bitten by a mutated beast. After that mutated beast drank his blood, it began to follow him. It was as if it had signed a contract and became his pet.
The person who was bitten was very interested. He began to try to feed the mutated beast with his own blood, and the mutated beast became more and more dependent on him.
In the end, during a battle against the zombies, the warrior quickly cut off his arm because of the zombie bite!
Although he was a mutant, he did not dare to be infected by more T viruses. Otherwise, he would want to eat human flesh and eventually become a zombie due to the increase in T viruses in his body.
After his arm was severed, an accident happened before he could repair himself and grow a new arm.
The mutated beast that had been following him all this time pounced on him and bit at his injured piece of meat with its mouth.
When the warrior was anxious, he raised his saber and cut off the mutated beast’s claws along with his arm. After cutting off the mutated beast’s claws, it was not intentional. His severed arm immediately came into contact with the mutated beast’s severed arm.
At that moment, a human and a beast began to repair themselves simultaneously under the influence of the TC virus.
Their bodies actually grew together. The TC virus in the human body entered the mutated beast’s body from the junction, causing the TC virus in the mutated beast’s body to begin to synchronize with the TC virus in the human body, making it even more complicated.
In this way, the mutated beast’s TC virus, which had become even more complex, began to transform the mutated beast’s body, allowing it to fuse with human flesh and blood.
The human brain automatically recognizes that the body of the mutated beast is a part of the human arm, so the memory behavior works, turning the body of the mutated beast into the shape of an arm!
After they merged together, the flesh and blood components of the mutated beast were transformed into human-like cells under the effect of the TC virus. They began to flow into the human body, entangling and dividing with the human cells. In the end, the two of them merged into one and became a common living thing!
At this time, it didn’t mean that the mutated beast was dead. Its soul was still hidden within the mutant’s body. It could also communicate with the mutant and listen to the mutant’s instructions.
It can use mutants to absorb the energy it needs. This is a parasite.
However, the method was even more barbaric and high-end!
After parasitism, the mutated beast would continuously accumulate power within the mutant’s body and eventually evolve! Become a higher level mutated beast!
After they become higher ranked, the mutants will also benefit. The mutants will gain stronger muscle strength, and they will definitely be able to possess the characteristics of mutated beasts!
The mutant could also completely summon the mutated beast out of its body! This is amazing, isn’t it?
But the TC virus, like the T virus, is a mysterious and incomprehensible thing. They should not belong to an ordinary planet like Earth.
This was because their life forms were even more advanced, something that non-humans could compare to!
In the process, there is one thing we cannot explain. After the mutant merged with the mutated beast, the body weight of the mutant actually did not increase and maintained a normal human weight.
This is completely out of line with the laws of physics.
Scientists in western Tibet could only guess, and later developed a theory called “the energy junction-non-organisms parasitize out of the inherent form of gravity.” I can’t say exactly what the theory is.
With this warrior as a specimen, scientists began to study him and finally found a way to increase the mutant’s strength!
The first stage was to find a matching mutated beast, Blood Feed! That is, to feed it with his own blood!
Actually, there are differences between TC viruses. This difference is similar to how humans have different blood types. There are obviously more types of TC viruses. This difference is something that we humans are unable to distinguish at present.
Only by matching the nature of the TC virus between the mutant and the mutated beast would they be able to feed on blood.
In this process, the mutated beasts were the ones to choose. Because the beasts were more sensitive, they would choose the TC virus carriers that matched them, bite them and drink blood.
The second stage was fusion. After eating blood for a period of time, the mutated beasts would not only be interested in the blood of the mutants, but would also be more interested in their bodies.
At the same time, he could cut off a part of the body organ of the mutant and the mutated beast, and then connect the two wounds together to achieve fusion.
The third stage was parasitism. Mutated beasts parasitized in the bodies of mutants and evolved by absorbing the power of mutants.
This evolution was spontaneous, uncontrolled, and could not be analyzed according to the species of mutated beasts to arrive at an evolutionary timetable. It could be a month or a year or more, depending on how well the mutated beast fused with the host.
The higher the fusion rate, the more the TC viruses matched, the more energy it would receive and the faster it would evolve!
A mutant that fused with a rank 1 mutant beast was called a rank 1 mutant. Similarly, a mutant that fused with a rank 10 mutant beast was a rank 10 mutant.
The rank ten of mutated beasts did not mean that a rank ten mutated beast had already appeared. In fact, this was just a scientific method to predict the rank of mutated beasts.
Actually, up to now, the experimental center of the Tibetan Western Base had only discovered a level 3 zombie beast, and only a level 2 mutant had appeared in the mutant!
In addition, each level of mutant was divided into three different stages: beastly form, half-beast form, and battle beast form!
You’ve seen both beastly and half-beast forms, and the so-called beast form is that mutants can take out the mutated beasts that are parasitic in their bodies and fight together! Although they were separated, their strength did not decrease at all. It was equivalent to a clone. After splitting into two, their combat strength was greater than one plus one. They were very powerful! “
