Chapter 302 The genius of the apocalyptic wasteland was cannon fodder (13)
Qingyou looked in the direction pointed by the middle-aged man and knitted yarrow in her hand.
Just as the yarrow took on a shape in her hand, it suddenly burst into flames and burned to ashes.
This scene shocked everyone present, especially the person who had just been rescued.
Ji Yong asked hurriedly: "Qingyou, what's going on?"
Qingyou patted the ashes on his hands and said, "I just counted something, but I can't count anymore."
"It means it's very dangerous over there, and we can't get in touch with it now."
Ji Yong couldn't help but ask again: "Did someone control those mutated beasts and set up traps to catch people?"
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?
Qingyou thought for a while and said: "It doesn't have to be a human being."
"Many animals before the cataclysm were intelligent, and they will naturally become smarter after mutation."
"Especially as their levels get higher and higher, the wisdom they unlock will also increase accordingly."
"I suspect that there are high-level mutant beasts over there that have developed high intelligence, so they have laid traps for humans to kill them."
In the apocalypse she lived in, zombies could regain their high intelligence after reaching high levels, and so could mutant beasts.
In the memory of the original body, not long after, there will be mutant beasts and mutant creatures taking turns besieging the base.
The overall strength of Base No. 1 is very strong. Although the casualties are not small, it is still protected.
After the beast tide that besieged Base No. 1 receded, over the next two to three months, several other bases were besieged one after another, and two small bases were even destroyed by the beast tide.
In the following years, bases of various sizes around the world would be attacked by beast tides from time to time, and several bases were breached one after another.
The space for human survival is even more difficult.
It was not until the development of biological weapons and the overall strength of mankind that this situation changed.
From this point, Qingyou suspected that a highly intelligent leader had emerged among the mutated beasts, and then issued orders to form a base for the beast tide to attack humans.
She had been in the red envelope group and had a lot of chats with Lord Xiling, and she heard him mention the demon clan.
I feel that if the mutated beasts become stronger and stronger and continue to evolve, they may become existences similar to the monsters in the world of immortality.
And this situation is not easy to prevent.
After all, zombies cannot reproduce. After a vaccine is developed, humans will no longer turn into new zombies after being bitten by zombies. The surviving zombies will one day be eliminated by humans.
Mutable beasts, mutant plants and mutant creatures not only reproduce, but some species reproduce quickly and in large numbers.
Without a fundamental solution to this problem, humans have only one way to go, to become stronger than them, or to find a new way out.
Qingyou thought a lot in her mind, and suddenly she had a clear understanding of the path she wanted to take in the future.
Ji Yong and others understood what Qingyou meant, "You mean, there are highly intelligent mutant beasts over there, so they gathered a lot of mutant beasts specifically to ambush us humans?"
Qingyou nodded, "Yes."
"Human beings can keep setting traps to hunt mutant beasts, and they can use the same method to hunt us in turn."
"Don't underestimate their current intelligence."
The more Ji Yong listened, the more it made sense, and his brows couldn't help but frown deeper, "If this is the case, there will be big trouble."
"I will report this speculation to the military in the first district as soon as possible after I return."
Qingyou nodded, "We have to report it as soon as possible. According to this trend, the highly intelligent mutant beast leader is likely to organize a beast tide to siege the base."
Although there are many families and supernatural forces in various bases, the military is still in charge.
The survivor base was established by the military from the beginning. After the catastrophe, the military became more active in searching and rescuing survivors everywhere.
It also provides jobs for many ordinary people in the base. As long as they are not lazy, they can basically support themselves.
Otherwise, humanity would have been in chaos long ago, and there wouldn't be so many survivors.
If the military could organize everyone to prepare early, casualties could be reduced.
Because of previous experiences, especially those who were rescued, no one thought that Qingyou was an alarmist.
The middle-aged man said: "What this young lady said is very possible. We thought before that those mutated beasts seemed to be organized and disciplined."
If there wasn't another important mission, Ji Yong and others would have wanted to return to the base immediately to report the matter.
Ji Yong said: "Let's find the mutant plant quickly and go back."
Everyone else agreed.
After resting for more than an hour, the superpowers in the guards' bodies had almost recovered, and the group continued on their way.
The rescued people were afraid of encountering mutant beasts again, so they proposed to join them.
Ji Yong and Si Qin also wanted to take them back to testify and report what happened before to the base's higher-ups, so they agreed to take them with them.
Because of Qingyou's divination, everyone avoided many dangers in the next two days and successfully found the mutated plant.
When they were still a few hundred meters away, everyone got off the car and walked into a forest.
Then, between a big rock, everyone saw a tree with colorful fruits.
Colorful fruits are actually fruits of five colors, gold, yellow, green, blue and red.
Qingyou feels that these fruits are very similar to the five attributes of metal, wood, water, fire and earth.
Then a scene that shocked everyone appeared.
As soon as the colorful tree noticed so many people appearing, it suddenly pulled out its roots from the big stone and ran away.
The guards brought by Ji Yong and others had already expected this, and surrounded the colorful tree as quickly as possible, taking the lead in blocking its escape.
The colorful tree was forced to stop.
At this time Ji Ying immediately stepped forward and used a special ability to communicate with the colorful tree.
Qingyou felt that there was a kind of fluctuation in spiritual power going back and forth between Ji Ying and Wucaishu.
And she could actually roughly sense what one person and one tree were communicating.
Ji Ying asked Wucaishu to go back to the base with her, and then she would not hurt it and would keep it.
The colorful fruit it grows is only needed to research a medicine that can slow down or even eliminate radiation damage in the body of people with superpowers.
The Ji family opened a pharmaceutical company before the catastrophe, and then opened a pharmaceutical company after the catastrophe.
Now, when a person with superpowers refines a different core, he or she needs to absorb radiation to cooperate. While improving strength, there are also disadvantages.
Even if you regularly use equipment to clean up the radiation in your body, over time, radiation will penetrate into your muscles and blood, and when accumulated, it will cause hidden dangers to your body.
From time to time, radiation sickness will break out among people with superpowers. Although they will not die, they will be very painful, they will no longer be able to use their superpowers for a period of time, and their life span will be shortened.
All superpower users are aware of this hidden danger, but in order to survive and make themselves stronger, they can only continue to use this method to improve their strength.
People with superpowers are the main force in fighting against mutant beasts, mutant plants and mutant creatures.
Therefore, humans have been working hard to research pharmaceuticals that can slow down or completely remove radiation accumulation in the bodies of people with superpowers.
The Ji family also accidentally discovered that the fruit of the colorful tree contains an energy that can swallow up the radiation in the human body.
That's why I wanted to find it and take it back to study.
If it succeeds, it will not only change the future development direction of the Ji family to a higher level, but will also be of great significance to people with super powers, and even to all mankind.
Therefore, even though Ji Ying almost died once, she never gave up her plan to continue looking for colorful trees.
While Ji Ying was communicating with Wucaishu, the yarrow that Qingyou was knitting suddenly started to burn again.
She turned around and looked at the woods behind her. After sensing it with her mental power, she immediately shouted: "There is an enemy attack. Get ready for battle!"
