There is room for rebirth in the apocalypse, so you can stock up on hundreds of billions of goods wi

"As for the mutants... Professor Kang and Professor Shen speculated that during the fusion process, the amount of radioactive elements remaining in ordinary people was too large, killing the microorganisms, but the crystal nuclei were still there, so they were produced."

"However, because normal people absorb radiation elements very slowly and lose them quickly, there will be relatively few mutants."

Qiao Yu touched her chin, "But according to this, the territory of this kind of microorganism should be very strong, and it should not allow other similar species to share its 'territory'... In other words, theoretically there will be no Is it from a dual-system alien?"

"Then A Zhan..." Qiao Yu said, then looked at Jiang Zhan aside, "Why is A Zhan a dual-system alien?"

"Professor Kang and Professor Shen have also discussed this issue. According to their speculation, dual-system aliens like Jiang Zhan should have two crystal nuclei in their bodies. It is a bit similar to twins in the human world, because they enter the body at the same time. It is in the human body, so there is no rejection reaction. However, the probability of this is very small. As you said, this kind of microorganism is indeed very overbearing and has a strong sense of territory, so basically this will not happen... This This is also why for so long, we have only seen Jiang Zhan, a dual-system alien."

"I see." Qiao Yu pursed her lips, "This is really a major research result."

Knowing the parasitic principle of microorganisms, it is very possible to develop corresponding restraining drugs. Although the hope may be slim at present, after all, geomagnetic storms are not something that can be expected... but it is better than being in the dark all the time, look. It’s much better to have no hope!

but……

Speaking of alien species, Qiao Yu suddenly thought of the strange child she saw on the north mountain of the factory yesterday.

Qiao Yu's intuition told her that it was definitely not an ordinary human being.

"Azhan, you said that the child we saw yesterday had abnormal mental fluctuations. What kind of abnormality was it specifically? He is actually not a human being, but a mutant, right?"

"No." Jiang Zhan frowned slightly, "I'm not sure."

"That child... his mental fluctuation frequency is higher than that of ordinary aliens, but lower than that of humans. It is completely between humans and aliens. So I can't tell whether he is a human or an alien."

"If we had to sum it up, 'half-human, half-alien' might be more accurate."

"What?!" Qiao Yu's eyes widened instantly, "H-how is this possible?"

Alien species only mutate after the death of humans. How could there be a "half-human, half-alien species"?

Qiao Yu and others followed Yan Zijin's motorcade for a long time, and it was not until about three o'clock in the afternoon that they finally arrived at their destination.

——At the foot of a bare barren mountain.

"When did there be a barren mountain here?" Cheng Sinian frowned slightly as he looked at the barren mountain in front of him that was very inconsistent with the surrounding dense forest. "I remember that there used to be a large mountain forest here."

"Even if the landscape changes after the end of the world, it won't be so bald that there won't be any grass left, right?"

"When the alien chooses its nest, shouldn't there be trees around it? But there aren't many bald trees around the alien's nest north of Gu Nanyu's factory."

"That's because that nest only supports a daughter species, while here is the mother species."

Hearing this, Qiao Yu and others immediately looked at the man who spoke.

——Yan Zijin.

Qiao Yu narrowed her eyes slightly, "Captain Yan, are you lacking some explanation for us?"

Yan Zijin smiled, "What about Captain Qiao? Have you told me everything?"

Qiao Yu choked slightly and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

After all, they did not tell Yan Zijin all the information they had.

Yan Zijin smiled again and said somewhat casually: "Actually, it would have been okay to tell you, but it's a long story, and now that time is urgent, I'll just keep it simple."

"The so-called 'child species' is the core of each independent alien nest, and it is also what the aliens in each alien nest always protect. The 'mother species' is responsible for producing the 'child species'."

When Qiao Yu heard this, she pursed her lips slightly. She actually wanted to ask, how did Yan Zijin get such news?

But after thinking about it, Qiao Yu still didn't ask.

For some reason, Yan Zijin was clearly smiling when he spoke, but Qiao Yu could see a trace of sadness on his face.

But perhaps Qiao Yu's expression was too obvious, so Yan Zijin smiled slightly again, "Captain Qiao, I know you have many questions to ask me, but this matter is really too complicated to explain. It's better to wait until we come out of it. talk later."

"If...we can make it out alive."

Yan Zijin's words silenced everyone for a moment.

Although everyone was prepared not to go back before coming, but being directly pointed out like this, everyone still felt a little heavy in their hearts.

Qiao Yu pursed her lips and her eyes gradually became determined, "We will definitely make it out alive."

When Yan Zijin heard this, he didn't speak anymore, paused, and then continued: "Captain Qiao, I gave you a rough internal structure diagram of the mountain yesterday. Each part on it is clearly marked. Although the structure after the apocalypse There may be some differences from before, but there shouldn’t be a big gap. However, it should be noted that I cannot determine the number of alien species in each part.”

"Also, I have no way of determining where Hua Yue and Xiang Heng are being held."

"So I hope that after you go in, you can act together with me. If we are separated, if we encounter any special circumstances and the whole body is affected, it will probably put both of us in trouble."

Qiao Yu nodded, "Captain Yan, don't worry, we are measured."

"Yes." Seeing Qiao Yu agree, Yan Zijin's face was obviously a little relaxed. He responded, turned around and shouted to his men: "Everyone, camp where you are and rest. After an hour, except for the camp guards, Everyone else, gather and set off!”

"Yes!"

After Qiao Yu and others heard this, they also planned to take a rest first.

But as soon as he turned around, he heard Yan Zijin behind him say again: "Captain Qiao."

Qiao Yu turned around, "What's wrong, Captain Yan? Is there anything else?"

Yan Zijin paused slightly, and after a few seconds of silence, he continued: "The big pendulum owes me a favor, does Captain Qiao remember it?"

"Of course." Qiao Yu nodded.

"Is it still counting now?"

"Of course." Qiao Yu nodded again.

Yan Zijin smiled slightly, "That's good. Then I won't disturb everyone's rest. I'll see you later."

"...Okay, see you later!"
