human journey

Chapter 271 Missing
Under the leadership of Zhang Bangming, everyone put on their night vision devices and walked to the depths of the passage. They traveled hundreds of meters along the way, and the depth increased by hundreds of meters. They still did not reach the end of the passage, and no abnormalities were found.

Suddenly, Zhang Bangming exerted a mental force on everyone and signaled everyone to stop.His dynamic sensing range was tens of meters away, and he found a not-so-large nest in front of him, but due to the limited air circulation in the passage, he couldn't detect more things, so he had to be careful.

Zhang Bangming motioned to Yuan Pengcheng and asked him to operate a small aircraft to investigate.Yuan Pengcheng took off the box he was carrying, and after a while, a four-winged aircraft flew forward with a subtle sound.

Soon they came to the lair, and several searchlights on the aircraft turned on, illuminating the entire lair.The King Kong team stared at the screen on the aircraft console, and immediately discovered the abnormality.

There is a huge black lump lying softly in the center of the nest, making no sound, it seems to be dead.Everyone in the King Kong team breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this scene. Obviously, the third Destroyer died during the birth process.

The cause of death should be that a metal bomb exploded near the nest, and the electromagnetic field transmitted to the blob was strong enough that the electricity storage organs that were forming or had already formed in the blob were blasted by the overloaded current, which was extremely powerful.

But the surface layer of the ball is very tough and filled with a repulsive force field, the explosion of the power storage organ cannot break through it, and the power of the explosion remains inside, directly destroying other tissues in the ball , including the parasite, to its complete death.

The King Kong team did not rush over, but used an aircraft to carefully search the nest. After confirming that there was no danger, everyone entered the nest.

There are no other passages here, even if you use the dynamic sensor and heat sensor to detect all around the nest, you can't find it, which means that the Wisdom Destroyer didn't come here, this is just the birthplace of the third Destroyer.

Without clues, everyone was ready to leave, and this dead mass was of research value, so it was left to M country.Going back, everyone came to the lair of the Destroyer of Wisdom, and they wanted to search the entire lair to see if they could find any traces of the Destroyer of Wisdom.

Due to the need to be careful of the attack of the Destroyer, the King Kong team was very cautious, and the speed of advancement was not fast. It took them a whole day to search for the huge lair, leaving only many passages leading to other cities unsearched. .

"Where do you think this Wisdom Destroyer has gone? Did he go to other cities through those passages? Or is he still hiding in the passages, hiding from us?"

After walking for a day, the already impatient Da Zhuang asked.

"I don't think it will stay here. The power of the metal bomb is enough to scare it away. I'm afraid it will go to other cities."

Zhuang Wenying continued.

Everyone also agreed that with the Destroyer's behavior, it would not stand under a dangerous wall. N City without a large number of humans would lose one of its best barriers.

"Among the known passages, the passages taken by the muscular zombies are the most likely to be chosen by the Destroyer. There are still a large number of human beings in the cities leading to these passages. They hide underground, and our super weapons cannot use them."

Yan Liang thought for a while and said.

"Then how can we be sure that it is the passage it took? We can't check passages one by one. There are many traces in the passage. How can we judge that it belongs to it?"

Da Dazhuang asked, he had been looking for it for a day, and he didn't want to search so boringly again.

"The Wisdom Destroyer also has the ability to penetrate the ground. It is impossible to find its exact location. We can only report it first and let country M supervise these cities."

Zhang Bangming said, and then left the ground with everyone.

After knowing this situation, Country M mobilized more Awakeners and fighters to these dozen cities, and at the same time, eight Heavenly Punishers patrolled over these cities in 24-hour shifts. The submarines of country Z have also come to the waters near these cities and are always in a state of combat readiness.

But the Destroyer seemed to have disappeared. It didn't appear for several days, and even the zombies didn't appear again.Such a situation not only did not reassure the high-level leaders of country M and country Z, but made them even more nervous.

Because as long as the Wisdom Destroyer is still alive, it will not give up killing human beings. If we don't see each other for a few days, it must be brewing a more terrifying plan. When it makes a comeback, it will inevitably be an even more terrifying disaster.

"What do you say the Wisdom Destroyer is doing now?"

In the armored transport vehicle patrolling the city, Da Zhuang, who felt bored, asked.

"I think it is mostly improving the zombie virus to make it more powerful, and the direction of improvement should be to make the zombie virus have a long incubation period and be able to spread through the air like the flu, so that it can quickly spread to the world Everywhere!"

Zhuang Wenying replied.

"Then what should we do? If the zombie virus breaks out all over the world, then human beings will be finished. We can't use microwave bombs to bomb all the places where zombies appear. Country M doesn't have such a large reserve, and maybe the top management of country M They're all infected, nobody can do these things."

After hearing this, Da Dazhuang said anxiously.

“The superiors have also thought of this and have communicated with other countries around the world. They have all strengthened the quarantine of outsiders. Foreigners with any symptoms must be quarantined for more than ten days, and they will be released after making sure they are fine.

Now that everyone around the world knows that the zombie virus has broken out in Country M, various countries are taking advantage of this trend to ask people to go out less, wear masks when going out, and do not organize gatherings.

However, because we don’t know the characteristics of the new zombie virus, these measures may not be effective. All countries can’t ban travel. Everything is imported. "

Zhuang Wenying explained.

"There may not necessarily be a new zombie virus. If the virus can be modified to be stronger, then why didn't the Destroyer wait before releasing it? Now it makes us more alert.

Viruses should be difficult to modify. I think the current zombie virus is already very powerful. I think it is unlikely to be transformed into what Sister Zhuang said, at least not in a short time. "

Xia Zhihui deduced optimistically that his words could not dispel everyone's worries. For a while, the car fell into silence.

Tom, who had been in the foreign M country soldier camp in N city for several days, returned to N city after getting permission. He was going back to his and Jack's residence.

The city of N has been thoroughly cleaned up. This is a very difficult job. The zombies were blasted into pieces by the microwave, and the city is full of minced meat.

These must be cleaned up as soon as possible, because a large number of scavengers have been summoned, including flies that survive the autumn and winter seasons, surviving rats, and cockroaches with strong vitality. They all ran out of the nooks and crannies to enjoy this zombie feast.

Due to various reasons, they were not killed by microwaves. After eating zombie meat, the zombie virus may survive in their bodies and spread to other places.Therefore, these animals also need to be killed, and various disinfectants can destroy them together with the virus.

Later, experts discovered that zombie viruses lose their activity shortly after zombie cells die.But it can indeed continue to survive in the bodies of other animals, remain dormant, and will not reproduce in large numbers. A small amount will be mixed in the body fluids of these animals and flow out, giving it a chance to infect humans.

Therefore, the corpses of the zombies must also be cleaned up, otherwise the zombie virus will continue to spread in the world along with various animals.

The apartment hasn't changed much from when Tom left, and there's still a big hole in the outside of his house. The power supply in N city has been cut off, and the elevator can't be used. He can only bite the bullet and walk up a dozen flights of stairs. This is not a small challenge for him who lacks exercise.

Tom was holding a gun in his hand. Although he knew that there would be no surviving zombies here, because even the zombies that were not killed by the microwave would rush out to attack after hearing the loud broadcast of the rescue team, but he Still very scared, the gun in his hand can give him enough courage to move on.

The purpose of Tom's return was simple. He wanted to take Jack's possible remains and the things he liked during his lifetime with him. He was going back to his parents' home in another state and would not return to this place that left him with endless fear.

Originally, he wanted to invite John or Charlie to accompany him, but as Awakened with rich experience in fighting zombies, they are very busy every day. They either go to various cities to inspect, or give lessons to other Awakened, imparting experience in dealing with zombies .

Moreover, City N is already safe, and country M also encourages the survivors of City N to come back. In this case, Tom is embarrassed to bother them.He already deeply hated himself for being cowardly and weak, and troubled others when he knew it was safe. Isn't that the same as before? Tom has made up his mind to change himself.

Panting, Tom arrived outside his residence smoothly. Fortunately, the door had a fingerprint lock and did not require a key. Otherwise, Tom, who was leaving in a hurry, would not have the key to open the door.

Unlocking the lock, Tom carefully opened the door and at the same time raised his gun to scan the room. After finding nothing unusual, he breathed a sigh of relief.

After closing the door and entering the house, Tom smelled a faint smell of insect repellent water.For so many days, even if the wind blew in through the hole every day, it was not all blown away. The quality was really good. This smell that saved Tom's life gave him a sense of security.

The overall environment in the house has not changed much. After all, it has only been a few days, but the small room where Tom and Jack are hiding is a mess.

When the Destroyer rushed in from outside the wall that day, a large number of concrete fragments swept the room. Coupled with the wind and sun for several days, it was even more messy.
