Chapter 1643 The clouds are gathering and the temperature is dropping
At the time when Oil City and Dazhangshu Base were busy preparing for the possible global ice disaster.
Northwest, Wuyuan Mountain.
In the scientific research institute established by Ma Laoliu.
The incandescent lights in the room are bright, and there are several huge glass fish tanks on the right side of the table. The fish tanks are filled with blue liquid.
These liquids are all potions made by Hu Tian in recent days.
When Hu Tian left Northwest, he took away the Type I and Type II immature vaccine solutions from the Northwest Scientific Research Institute, as well as information and documents related to vaccine research.
With Ma Laoliu's full support, he would do his best to give Hu Tian anything he wanted.
In just one week, Hu Tian produced hundreds of liters of medicines, which were derived from the original solutions of immature vaccines of Type I and II.
These medicines are somewhat similar to the original vaccine solution, but also somewhat different. In order to test out the parameters he wanted as quickly as possible, Hu Tian strengthened certain elements in the ratio.
The medicines in the five glass fish tanks are all different in color, from dark to light, and have different effects.
"How is it? Can we release it on a large scale?" Ma Laoliu asked, standing next to Hu Tian and looking at a zombie inside the iron railing in front.
The zombie inside the iron railing was extremely quiet. Unlike other zombies that usually pounced on humans when they saw it, it was a little sluggish.
Hu Tian knocked on the iron railing, making a clanging sound. However, the zombie inside seemed unable to hear the sound of knocking on the railing and remained motionless.
"Don't be in a hurry. Let's make preparations first. Have you chosen the city to launch it in?" Hu Tian asked.
Ma Laoliu nodded and said:
"We have chosen, BY City in the north, there should be millions of zombies, or Yuzhong County in the southeast, there should be a lot of zombies, there should be hundreds of thousands."
He looked at the motionless zombie inside the railing, as if suffering from Alzheimer's disease, and asked: "What's wrong with this zombie? We are so close, why doesn't it react at all?"
"I took a sedative." Hu Tian glanced at his watch and said, "The effect of the medicine is almost over."
The words just fell.
The eyes of the zombie inside the railing gradually returned to their previous red color.
Boom!
The zombie hit the railing and roared at them.
He pulled hard on the railing, the force was so great that the railing creaked.
This zombie even hit his head on the railing, so crazy.
Seeing this zombie in such a state, Ma Laoliu got used to it.
How can a zombie be so calm when it meets a person?
Ma Laoliu looked at Hu Tian next to him and asked dubiously:
"Hu Tian, can the method you mentioned work?"
Hu Tian looked at Ma Laoliu with firm eyes.
“It absolutely works!”
Ma Laoliu saw the determination and confidence in his eyes and was convinced by him again.
"When can large-scale experiments be carried out? Give me an accurate estimate. Also, as you mentioned last time, how will you observe after the potion is put in? Please tell me carefully so that I can make arrangements in advance."
Hu Tian looked at the large tanks of potions at the back, thought for a while and said:
"Give me five days."
"I'm now testing the effect of swallowing the potion. When the potion is released, we won't be able to inject it into zombies one by one, so we need to let these zombies take the initiative to swallow the potion."
"So, you have to prepare more than 100 liters of blood for me, either human or animal, and stir it into the potion when the time comes."
........
Hu Tian proposed some things that Ma Laoliu needed to prepare to fully prepare for this large-scale experiment.
After Ma Laoliu heard what he said, he turned his head and looked at Jin Kui behind him and asked:
"Have you written it all down?"
"Write it down, boss."
"Okay, you will be responsible for preparing these things when the time comes!"
"Okay, boss." Jin Kui nodded.
Ever since Huang Shiyong returned and was replaced by Hu Tianhou, the boss often hung out with Hu Tian. When he learned about Hu Tian's plan, he once thought of dissuading the boss.
After all, this kind of large-scale experiment is very likely to produce uncertain mutations in zombies.
Every zombie has individual differences, and no one knows what kind of mutations it will have.
If nothing else, let's just say that under the pressure of the boss, Huang Shiyong made aggressive adjustments to the vaccine and injected it into a wall-climbing zombie, causing a mutation.
The wall-climbing zombie is no longer afraid of ultraviolet light.
This is equivalent to saying that the weaknesses of wall-climbing zombies are gone.
Just imagine, a wall-climbing zombie has a flexible body and can climb at will on a 90-degree wall and move very fast.
If you are no longer afraid of ultraviolet lights, you don't have to only come out at night. Because you are so thin and flexible, you may not be able to find it when you walk into the base, and then suddenly jump down from the ceiling and bite your neck.
Just thinking about it is scary.
However, he could not dissuade the determined boss, so he could only find ways to strengthen the guarding force on the wall.
Apart from Ma Laoliu and Hu Tian, the only one who knew about this plan was Jin Kui.
Because Ma Laoliu trusted him, when he sent people to Oil City for exchanges before, he also sent him there.
This time, Ma Laoliu also let him know the plan and asked him to implement it in detail.
A few years ago, Ma Laoliu saved his life.
Jin Kui is a very loyal person. Ever since he was rescued and taken in by Ma Laoliu, he has never had any second thoughts and has always been loyal to him.
Jin Kui looked at Ma Laoliu and Hu Tian and sighed in his heart.
He wanted to persuade again, but he had already tried to persuade the boss in private many times before, but to no avail.
If you continue to persuade, it will easily cause the boss's displeasure.
Naturally, it is impossible for him to tell Northwest about this matter. Once he tells Northwest, the boss will definitely target the boss.
It was impossible to tell those in Oil City. After all, to them, Northwest and Oil City were actually outsiders.
He told outsiders that it was tantamount to betraying Ma Laoliu.
Now Jin Kui is riding a tiger with a hard time getting off. He knows clearly that it may lead to serious consequences, but he has nothing to do.
........
Wuyuan is more than a thousand kilometers away from Shanxi and is the northwest base.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Four or five kilometers away from the northwest base, Black Hand and Zheng Shiwu stay here.
This is already the suburbs of Jiayu City.
There is a row of self-built houses, with a house in the middle in the cellar.
The black hand rubbed his back vigorously, removing a layer of black-gray dirt and dead skin.
He rubbed it with his thumb and forefinger and formed a ball.
Place it on a brick in front of you. There are six dirt balls of the same color on the brick.
"Alas... the Beida River has stopped flowing. It is getting more and more difficult for us to get water now."
The black hand placed the dirt ball on the brick,
"Old Zheng, our water is almost running out again. If it doesn't work anymore, let's move to near the foot of Qilian Mountain. At least there is more melted water in the snowy mountains there."
"Every time we go out to fetch water, we risk being discovered. We might as well just find a suitable place at the foot of the Qilian Mountains. Anyway, we can see the northwest base there."
"What do you think?"
Zheng Shiwu was looking at the map with a flashlight at this time.
The flashlight he carries is a push-type flashlight.
When there is no power, you only need to press it continuously to generate electricity through kinetic energy.
However, every time after using it for a short time, the flashlight ran out of power and needed to be pressed further to continue using it.
After Zheng Shiwu heard what Black Hand said, he put the map away.
Looking at the two briefcase-like buckets next to them, they drank all the water in the buckets today.
"Okay, let's clean up tonight and bring our things. We'll change places tomorrow morning."
Hearing Zheng Shiwu's agreement, Black Hand sat up.
"Okay, I'll pour the wine in the vat into the bucket first, and then we'll take it over together."
"It's up to you." Zheng Shiwu got into the sleeping bag, put on his hat, and slept with his hands on his shoulders.
In recent days, the cloud cover has become thicker and thicker, and the temperature has dropped a lot.
At night, the outdoor temperature even reached minus five or six degrees.
It's a little warmer in the cellar, it can reach three or four degrees above zero.
The wine that Blackhand discovered before is also useful. At least in the cold weather, a few sips can warm the body occasionally.
Zheng Shiwu was lying in his sleeping bag, closing his eyes and thinking about things.
It has not rained for four or five months, and the drought is severe.
The northwest base has encountered a water shortage problem, but at least they can replenish the water source through melting water from snow mountains and artificial rainfall.
I don’t know how the oil city solves the water shortage problem...
They have been here for a month, and almost every two or three days they will report to Oil City on the latest developments in the northwest.
There has been no major movement in the northwest for a month.
But...he didn't gain anything from staying here.
He did figure out the rules of the guard posts on duty at the northwest base. He knew the number of people on duty at each point, the time of guard changes, and even some hidden posts around him.
In order to record the location of these sentries, the time of guard changing, etc., he also made special records so that he would have something to hand over to them when he returned to Oil City.
The cold wind howled.
The baffles in the cellar above rattled in the cold wind.
A bit of cold wind blows down from the gap between the entrance and exit above, replacing the fresh air in the cellar.
Zheng Shiwu was very relaxed huddled in his sleeping bag. He was wearing a mink hat all over his body, even on his head.
The wind outside was very loud, as if it was destroying the world.
A sharp contrast to the silence in the cellar.
Listening to the wind, Zheng Shiwu slowly fell into sleep.
.........
The moonlight was obscured by thick clouds, and not a trace of moonlight could shine on the earth.
The whole land was pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers.
Due to lack of water, large tracts of trees have died all over the mountains and plains.
The ground is covered with withered yellow leaves.
Even at night, there is a hint of dryness and decay in the air.
In the dark night, zombies use their excellent sense of smell to capture water vapor in the air and walk in the direction where the water vapor is blowing.
Nam Van Lake.
The water level has dropped by 0.5 meters.
There is a sentry tower built out of shipping containers on the shore.
The entire sentry tower is about 8 meters high and is made of more than a dozen iron containers.
The containers on the bottom floor are all filled with sand to stabilize the sentry tower.
Through the thick iron railing, Luo Gui looked outside with night vision goggles on his head.
This window faces the woods on the shore.
Because the woods on the shore are close to Nam Van Lake, there is no shortage of water and they are not dry.
In the dark woods, rustling sounds came from inside.
One after another, zombies came out of the woods and jumped into the lake.
Bang bang bang!
Hearing this voice, Luo Gui took a few steps back.
He knew that there must be wall-climbing zombies climbing onto the sentry tower again.
Sure enough, he just took two steps back.
A hand stretched out from the railing. The arm of the wall-climbing zombie was very slender, as big as a child's arm.
I saw a wall-climbing zombie hanging outside the iron railing, roaring at Luo Gui.
The physical characteristics of wall-climbing zombies no longer resemble humans, but more like an orangutan.
The legs become shorter and the hands become more slender.
Luo Gui picked up a spear from the side and pointed it at the head of the wall-climbing zombie.
He stabbed the wall-climbing zombie hard in the head.
Phew!
The sharp spear pierced the zombie's head.
Pull it out.
Some red and white mucus was brought out.
Wall-climbing zombie, die!
But this wall-climbing zombie held on to the iron railing with its hands and feet and kept the same movement after death and did not fall.
Luo Gui used a spear to separate the zombie's arms and legs, and pushed the zombie's body down with a spear.
Boom!
It fell heavily to the ground below.
Ho ho ho ho!
The zombies below saw the corpse of their companion and swarmed up to eat it without hesitation.
This wall-climbing zombie was cut into pieces by five horses. In less than two minutes, there was only a pool of black slime on the ground.
An ordinary zombie was eating the arm of a wall-climbing zombie. After taking a bite, it was snatched away by other ordinary zombies swarming over.
One of the tallest power-type zombies was holding the wall-climbing zombie's head and gnawing at it.
Zombies all like to eat heads, whether they are eating human heads or the same kind.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Brother Luo, killed another wall-climbing zombie?" Behind Luo Gui, a man came with a flashlight.
Luo Gui turned around and saw Zhang Zhisheng, nodded and said:
"Well, how are you doing there?"
Zhang Zhisheng spread his hands and said: "It's still the same as last night, but there are more and more zombies in Nanwan Lake recently, tsk tsk..."
"I just looked at the lake, and there were zombies rolling one after another. Brother Luo, why do these zombies like water so much? I'm worried about whether the water soaked by so many zombies can still be used..."
Luo Gui thought for a while and said:
"I don't know, but the water soaked by zombies can still be used after treatment... Otherwise, what is the point of building this water plant?"
"That's right."
Zhang Zhisheng nodded and said:
"Fortunately, the main building of the water plant is built in the trading market. Otherwise, it would be built on the side of Nanwan Lake, and the treated clean water source may not be transported to the trading market, and it may be contaminated by zombies again."
Luo Gui put the spear back to its original position, "The senior leaders must have thought more carefully than us. What time is it? Let A Dong and the others come over to change the guard."
"It's almost 2:30, I'll go call them." Zhang Zhisheng said.
"Um."
........
The long and terrifying night is torture for many people.
But when the night passes, the bright sunshine cannot be welcomed.
The sky covered with clouds was still a bit gray even at seven or eight in the morning.
The sky now is overcast with clouds, as if it is about to rain.
It gives people a feeling of suffocation and breathlessness, which makes people feel heavy and unhappy.
Trading Market North District.
prison.
All members of the Dark Night Faction, except Zheng Yi, who had been imprisoned for a night, were released.
Murong Feng, the leader of the Dark Night Sect, looked at the gloomy sky with dark circles under his eyes.
This gloomy sky was similar to his mood at the moment.
A torturous night!
Zheng Yi made a big mistake when he was drunk, but Oil City did not hold other members of their Dark Night Sect accountable.
However, Oil City judged that Murong Feng, the leader of the team, was lax and failed to manage his subordinates well, so half of their points were deducted as punishment.
Why not contribute points!
This made Murong Feng feel very distressed. He had accumulated points for a long time!
Seeing that he will be upgraded to level 4 if he keeps doing it, he will be fucked directly before liberation!
After Murong Feng saw his dejected subordinates, he clapped his hands to cheer them up:
"Brothers, raise your heads! As long as you live, you can earn points again. If you lose your life, you will lose everything. Brothers, a new day is about to begin. Let's cheer up!"
"Boss, Zheng Yi..." a subordinate suddenly asked.
Murong Feng's face darkened and he said in a low voice:
"Sigh... He will definitely not survive. He made such a serious mistake... But it is his own fault. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have to spend a night in jail."
"We should be satisfied if we can come out alive."
One of his subordinates spat thick phlegm on the ground: "Bah, damn Zheng Yi...Liu Lizhao, don't mention Zheng Yi..."
"Let's go, go back to bed first." Murong Feng waved his hand to stop them from arguing, and walked towards the living area.
I haven't slept all night, and now I'm so sleepy that my eyelids are popping out.
