"You can't control your willpower a little. Where is your willpower?" Lu Yiming looked greedy when facing this fat man who was much taller.

As long as he held an apple and wandered in front of him, the fat man couldn't bear it at all. His drooled overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and his whole body became a little crazy, just like a dog who had been hungry for several days saw a flesh bone...

In the face of Lu Yiming's reprimand, Guo Weiqiang whispered and humbled: "No, Captain Lu, you can't control it at all... Once you eat something, your mouth will be unable to control it, as if you are crazy. And now you are really hungry, I know that something is wrong. Alas, what should I do?"

"Do something else, divert your attention, and control the amount of food. Now we have no medical treatment for the time being."

A medical expert following behind said: "The special crystals around his heart urgently need more energy for growth, so they will urge him to overeat. This is no longer a mental illness, but an instinctive physiological phenomenon."

"He now has much stronger gastrointestinal digestive ability than before, so he feels hungry."

"In other words, the emergence of this crystal changed his behavior. We still don't know whether this behavior pattern changes are reversible. Perhaps with the advancement of technology and the exploration of more relevant information, this can be cured.

Lu Yiming frowned. This troublesome disease is really difficult.

He turned his head and said to Guo Weiqiang: "Forget it, you can stay here for a while. Going out will cause trouble."

Human behavior patterns are influenced by genes and memes.

Genes, that is, human innate physiological instincts, include two main lines of survival and reproduction. Survival includes eating, drinking, pulling, scattering, reproduction, and other instinctive actions in various aspects.

Humans are born to like to eat delicious food, men like beauties, and women like handsome men, all of which are determined by genes.

Memes are units when inheriting cultural information. For example, the law stipulates that certain behaviors are prohibited, morals stipulate that a normal person must respect the elderly and love the young, etc.

These human behavior patterns are all part of memes. Different countries have different cultures and social operation methods. In some places, humans believe that individual interests are greater than collective interests, and in some places, people think that collective interests are greater than freedom.

This is the power of memes.

Genes and memes regulate all aspects of human behavior. Therefore, humans will never achieve true "great freedom" when living in the world, otherwise they will not be humans, and they all become unreasonable madmen.

When Guo Weiqiang heard that he was still locked up here and hungry, he was a little reluctant, but he could only accept it.

"... Then I'm out of help? As long as no one controls me, I will overeat? What should I do?!" The fat on Guo Weiqiang's face trembled.

Lu Yiming sighed and said, "... Perhaps there are relevant research materials in this continent. The indigenous people here may have solutions... With our own research power, it may take a long time to study the mysteries."

Although Yunhai has some scientific research talents, it is still far from qualified compared to a civilization.

In the next few days, it was not only Guo Weiqiang who happened. As the remaining 300 survivors woke up one by one, they all developed similar overeating conditions.

Especially a few people who eat very fat will lose their minds immediately when they smell the aroma of food and will appear to have a certain degree of aggressiveness.

There is no way, for such a guy who is difficult to control himself, he can only be locked in a safe house all day long.

As long as you don’t give them too much food, you will appear to be mentally normal.

The recovery of these people has become a big problem that is difficult.

...

"Humans are too weak...both physical and mental, they are all too weak."

After Ding Yuan learned about this, he privately convened a few superpowers and held a meeting: "Everyone, through scientific research on this accident, it can be seen that a small storm above the Yang River can destroy us."

"We cannot always maintain this military alert state. We must breathe the air outside sooner or later."

"We can avoid the white mist this time because it has color and can be seen by the eyes. But what if the next time is something that cannot be seen or smelled? Our overall immunity is too poor."

"So, we must seize every possible opportunity to improve ourselves... It may take a certain amount of time to translate documents, but no matter what, we need to have some personnel to go deep into this continent and explore more confidential information for the second time."

After hearing this news, everyone in the conference room looked very good.

The situation in this continent is too dangerous.

There are terrifying creatures born from the meat balls everywhere, all of whom are wandering, preying, and even killing each other.

It is already so difficult for elite superpowers like Lu Yiming, Shi Dayong, and Zhong Peng to fight one, and there is still a certain amount of luck. It is not an exaggeration to explore it rashly again. It is called a life-and-death life.

"What do you think?" Ding Yuan sat in the middle of the table and asked, "Is anyone willing to go?"

Zhong Peng coughed for a while, lowered his head, and did not answer.

He certainly didn't want to.

At first, he didn't know about the disaster in this continent, and he could still rush to explore, but now he knows the truth... he really doesn't have such courage.

He was originally an otaku and didn't care much about the development of the entire society. Many things were led by Lu Yiming.

"I think this plan is desirable. We must obtain relevant scientific and technological information... I am willing to go."

The person who spoke was Shi Dayong. Most of the patients with bulimia were soldiers under his command. No matter from that perspective, he had to take this risk.

Moreover, if he was unwilling to express his opinion, probably no one would be willing.

"It depends on the specific location of the laboratory. If you go deep into the mainland for thousands of kilometers, then forget it. How many people are entering and how many people die? Our Yunhai cannot withstand such great damage. If it is near the coastline, you can barely try it."

Lu Yiming's expression was not very good, so he said a few words.

In fact, he was not very willing in his heart... Even if the second exploration mission was for the entire group, what if his life was lost?

Lu Yiming is not the kind of saint who is selfless and dedicated, so his life must be put first.

"I agree with Lu Yiming's point of view." Liu Xuwei sat there in a daze, and he was not very willing... For him, the Yunhai is already a paradise. Isn't it good to pick up girls every day? It's simply a mortal act to run deep into the mainland to fight monsters!

Of course, if the reward given is sufficient and the risks can be afforded, he is actually okay.

Liu Xuwei was really too poor. Before the disaster of the doomsday, he was a rich second generation. He was used to being too big and could not live a hard life. Instead of living a poor life, it would be better to take the risk and try it out.

"I have no problem." Li Yao raised his hand and said nothing more. He and Shi Dayong are professional soldiers in the special forces team and still have a sense of honor.

Ding Yuan could probably guess everyone's psychological activities. Except for the two professional soldiers, most of them had some thoughts.

He sighed and said, "This matter is not in a hurry. After all, it involves everyone's life safety... So, wait a little longer, and wait until the final data is deciphered, and then we have to make some military preparations. Maybe in a while, this ball of white mist will dissipate directly, and will this continent enter the security period again?"

"But I still hope that you can be mentally prepared. The second expedition mission is not for other things, but for... our future!"

"Our Yunhai must become stronger in order to have a real future."

"If it really doesn't work... I can play myself."

There was no clear result at the end of this meeting, and Lu Yiming was not in a very good mood.

He also had some psychological burdens. With his uneasy steps, he took the elevator with Zhong Peng and returned to the 56 community under his jurisdiction.

As soon as I walked out of the elevator door, I heard the greetings of "Captain Lu" and "Captain Zhong".

Obviously, people were full of respect for Lu Yiming and Zhong Peng who came back from the expedition.

"Captain Lu, what's going on with Guo Weiqiang's treatment?" He looked up and saw Guo Weiqiang's mother.

"Oh, I've recovered my mind now... I'm still in the hospital. But you can call him a video call or something, that's fine."

"That's good, that's good." The middle-aged woman was obviously relieved, "Captain Rudd, this is the latest ripe melon, I'll give you one."

"Haha, no, I won't."

For the people in the 56 community, the current quality of life is much better than when they first entered the shelter, and the types of food have begun to become more abundant. The latest batch of white-feathered chickens have been slaughtered freshly. As long as you have some spare money in your hands, you can buy fresh chicken.

There are also fast-ripening vegetables, fruits, such as strawberries, melons, etc., which have also been picked from the branches and can be easily purchased in supermarkets.

Some clothes made of silk-spouted gold babies have also started to be sold normally. This kind of clothes feels very good and are not easily contaminated with dirt. Buy one and can be worn for one or two years.

The only disadvantage is that the color and style are rather monotonous, and it is impossible to make it colorful like before.

There are also various simple electronic games that have been made. You can play landlords online, play mahjong, and play double buttons. There is no simpler entertainment method in the world than electronic games.

Anyway, the service life of mobile phones is quite good, and basically everyone has one.

A high-quality mobile phone, in addition to the rapid battery decline, as long as there is no water inlet, it will not be a problem to use it for five or six years. You don’t even have to worry too much about the battery decline. Just charge it a few more times.

There are some private reserves for electronic products, and at least there is no need to worry about it in the past few years.

In short, all these add up, the happiness level of 56 communities is quite good, and the employment rate is quite high. The current per capita income can be considered as the upstream of 50 communities.
