But as time went by, Wei Yibo found that he was old very quickly, and the unlimited power he had used overdrawn his vitality.

Finally, the fear of death defeated the so-called foolish loyalty...

He began to refuse to conduct experiments and wanted to contact his family. When he was most painful and confused, he needed the care and love of his family. Wei Yibo was first alone, and then a soldier of the Chinese Federal Army, and he thought that his request was not excessive.

But the dream was shattered.

Commander Wang sternly rejected Wei Yibo's request, and his attitude began to change. He no longer spoke kindly, but instead threatened Wei Yibo's family, and even threatened him.

Only then did Wei Yibo vaguely guess that he was not serving the country, but was deceived by Commander Wang. Although Wei Yibo was a child from the countryside, he was at least in junior high school and was very clever.

In the base, all I have come into contact with are scientists. Wei Yibo has never met an officer from the Military Affairs Office. He had no doubts before, but now he has awakened.

His identity file may have been cancelled and become a "missed person" and will be detained forever in a laboratory where there is no light to be seen, and can be fiddled with.

His resistance and escape career also began, but without surprise, all ended in failure.

Commander Wang had long expected all this and implanted a tracking device into his body, which could even use the reserved electromagnetic force to use the peripheral nerves to perform a motor, causing people to fall asleep.

The farthest escape, Wei Yibo met Lao Zhao and the others. He was on the road in Lop Nur.

However, Wei Yibo couldn't believe anyone. After resting, he used his ability to teleport to an area two kilometers away.

But he was still arrested by Commander Wang and locked up in this cell.

Outside the thick bulletproof glass window, Commander Wang and Staff Officer Shi Yu left the suite. They had more difficult things to deal with, such as the turtle turtle and Fu Chunzheng and his group.

"In order to support Su Changxin, we took out all the bipolar stone tablets. Isn't this a bit too erratic?" Staff officer Shi Yu was careful and did not agree with Commander Wang's risky behavior. "What's going on in Xuanmu Cave? How could laboratory No. 7 make such a big mistake!"

In terms of position, Commander Wang is Shi Yu's superior, but the two belong to a secret organization called the Innovation Society within the military. Shi Yu and Commander Wang have similar status, so Shi Yu dared to speak in such a tone.

Commander Wang was dissatisfied with Shi Yu's attitude, but his face was still a formulaic smile. "At the beginning, three mutant turtles ran out of Laboratory No. 7. They now live in Xuanmu Cave. Depending on the situation, they should have reproduced and laid eggs and hatched a lot of larvae."

This mutant earth turtle first appeared in 1947. Because it was a mutant species, it was used by the Institute of Biology of the National Academy of Sciences for research once it was discovered, so Fu Chunzheng knew this earth turtle.

But Commander Wang and Staff Officer Shi Yu both knew that this thing was not born in nature, but the product of a secret biochemical research conducted by Innovation and the use of military scientific research resources.

Later, an accidental explosion occurred in the laboratory and the exterior wall was damaged. These mutated turtles escaped, which led to today's disaster.

Scientists discovered this huge new species in the radiation area, and later conducted radiation experiments frequently, hoping to obtain better gene mutation species.

After countless failures, a brand new mutant turtle appeared in the radiation cabin in the laboratory.

The Innovation Association not only used animals to conduct experiments, but Commander Wang and Staff Officer Shi Yu also deliberately sent some soldiers to the radiation area to observe the effect of nuclear radiation on the human body.

Lop Nur was originally a strange place, but this actually covered up some of the actions of the Innovation Society here. Even if something strange happened, it would be pushed onto Lop Nur.

Heart-Erosion Grass is indeed a strange plant, but this plant can only grow in the dark abyss cave in Lop Nur.

Outside the valley, this plant cannot survive. After research by biologists and physicists, it was found that there was a strange energy magnetic field in the "big ears" that could provide the necessary elements for the survival of this plant.

Because of the strange effect of the Heart-Erosion Grass, Commander Wang also ordered it to be picked back and conducted various biochemical tests to try to create an enhancement potion that can make soldiers invulnerable to swords and guns.

The experiment has not made much progress, and all creatures corroded by the eroded heart grass cannot be controlled and become bloodthirsty monsters.

That's why Commander Wang planned to use nuclear radiation to genetically transform this plant. Although it is difficult to achieve targeted gene mutations due to current human technology, it can be completely compensated by using the number of times.

Since the results cannot be determined, we will obtain the optimal results through countless experiments.

Ultimately, innovation will create a terrible plant, and the heart-eroding grass is no longer the heart-eroding grass that used to be.

Among one of the gene mutation varieties, a special heart-eroded grass was born, and at the beginning, the researchers did not notice the difference between this heart-eroded grass and other similar varieties.

Because after experiments, after injecting the extracted agent, the mice were no different from the previous experiment results.

But it was not until a researcher had a problem that everyone realized the seriousness of the problem.

The mutated heart-eroding grass has a new ability, which is to emit a strange interference radio wave through internal biostatic electricity, which can attract surrounding creatures and eat it!

One day, a researcher picked up the half-length flower of the heart-eroding grass without any warning and swallowed it into his stomach in one breath. At that time, he did not show any abnormality.

However, seven days later, his body was found in a small village a hundred kilometers away from the base, and was called by local villagers. At that time, he was missing, only sixteen hours away.

The strangest thing is that the researcher's body was as decayed as a person who had been dead for more than half a year. His pus was covered in body and stinking, and his bones were naked and exposed in the air.

Green liquid penetrates into the surface, and even the soil is made viscous and moist.

At that time, the base only moved the body away and did not carefully check the soil condition. It was not until the biologists in the laboratory were surprised to find a large number of mutated microbial cells in the pus that Commander Wang discovered that something was wrong.

After comparison, these microbial cells confirmed that they were not the cells of the deceased themselves, but the ones that were eroded!

The mutated heart-eroding grass no longer relies on seeds to reproduce and survive. Instead, it becomes a smaller unit of life, hiding itself in the pus after the host's rotten host.

But it was too late at this time, and another month passed since the body was moved back.

The new heart-eroding grass has grown and has begun to sprout. This mutated plant has a terrifying growth rate and its vitality is very similar to that of weeds.

The village where the corpse was found soon became a paradise for strange corpses. They all became infected hosts. Compared with the original Heart-Erosion Grass, the new varieties obviously do not take care of the hosts.

Apart from being crazy, the host's survival time will not exceed one week, which depends on the strength of each person's immune system.

What happened next was what Lao Zhao and Lin Rui and others encountered.

The entire population of 70,000 to 80,000 Lop Nur was wiped out in two months. Fortunately, these zombies are not zombies in "Resident Evil" and will not be contagious by biting them.

However, the harm of mutant heart erosion grass still greatly affects the ecological environment of this area. Many animals are infected, and newly grown mutant heart erosion grass is everywhere.

Fortunately, this place is originally very remote, not only is there a small number of people, but even animals are rare.

However, on that night, Chen Ruihan and Fu Chunzheng and others knew that in Ruoqiang County, Xin Province, new chaos had begun. More and more people infected by mutated heart-eroding grass became terrifying zombies.

Ruoqiang County has an area of ​​more than 200,000 square meters, making it the largest county-level administrative area in China. However, there are only less than 40,000 people living here.

Only 2,000 of them were Han people, and the others were ethnic minorities in Xinzhou. After China implemented urbanization, it gradually changed its lifestyle of living along the water and grass, moving into the city to settle down.

The so-called urbanization is the concentration of the population, which facilitates the effective management of the Hualian government.

However, now this has led to the rapid spread of mutated heart-eroding grass. Tens of thousands of people in the county, more than half of the infected people have been infected. They are frantically opening their big mouths full of mucus, rushing to the streets, tearing up all visible living things.

The entire Ruoqiang County has now become a world of zombies. The night is low and the breath of death is everywhere.

Old Zhao curled up and hid carefully behind the trash can on the corner of the street, staring at a small supermarket across the road without blinking. He had not eaten a bite for more than a day and a night.

If it weren't for the little bit of rationality that remained, he would have thrown the zombies wandering on the streets behind him and rushed in at all costs.

At this time, there were four living zombies wandering in front of the small supermarket. Lao Zhao held the slightly curled machete in his hand and tried his best to restrain his impulse. At most, he could only deal with two living zombies at the same time. If this number exceeded, he could not guarantee that he would not be injured by the zombies.

If that were the case, it was basically no different from death. After all, he was just lucky enough to escape the control of the Heart-Eating Grass. If he fell to the ground due to injury, the smell of blood would definitely attract more alive zombies.

Reason finally defeated the strong instinct. Lao Zhao held on to himself, waited carefully for the best time, and was careful. This is also the fundamental reason why Lao Zhao was able to survive in Yangcheng alone for nearly a month.

A month ago, Lao Zhao was just a driver who was hiding in society. He occasionally worked part-time in intelligence work. Seeing that he was about to go home, a strange virus broke out here. He witnessed the mutation process of most people around him with his own eyes.

Their bodies are still there, and even their faces are still the same, but they have become a living zombie without any thoughts and only knows how to kill and eat.

No one knows where the zombie virus comes from. This disease can be widely spread, with an infection rate of more than 60%, and a mortality rate of 100%. Now less than 15% of people in the city are still alive.

The first person to be controlled and infected by the Heart-Erosion Grass has long become zombies. Although the rest will not be infected for the time being, as long as they are bitten by the zombies or are physically injured, they will be chased by the zombies who smell the bloody smell.

The infected person will die of high fever within three days. Then, the heart-eroding grass will replicate itself in the blood crazily. Within 12 hours after the infected person dies, the heart-eroding grass cells will reorganize the brainstem and nervous system of the deceased.

The deceased will regain the perception and mobility of five senses, but because the brain has died, the brain stem recombined by the erosion heart virus can control the deceased's body. At this time, the infected person has evolved into a zombie.

The zombies have no mind, and their only instinct is to keep eating, hunting, and then eating. In this cycle, they are purely manipulated by instinct. Even if they no longer need to eat.

Not only that, the Heart-Erosion Grass Virus will continue to strengthen the body of the living zombie, making the endurance and ability to resist strikes far exceed that of normal people. Even if it cuts off or blows off its head, the living zombie will not die at all.

At this moment, the zombies wandering in front of the supermarket are slow to move, but they must not be deceived by their appearance. This is just a way for them to preserve their physical strength. If they encounter prey, they will burst out with super physical energy in an instant.

Whether it is speed or strength, it is much stronger than ordinary humans, and it is a very excellent predator.

The glass door of the supermarket had been smashed long ago, and the sunlight outside was a little dazzling, making it difficult for Lao Zhao to see the inside of the supermarket clearly. It is impossible to determine whether the supermarket had been robbed, and it is even more uncertain whether there is food inside that he urgently needs.

Fortunately, the zombies did not consciously occupy the supermarket. After waiting patiently for twenty minutes, the zombies in front of the door had basically wandered to other places.

When the nearest zombie also walked hundreds of meters away, Lao Zhao felt that his time had come.

He tried to lower his body and keep the footsteps to the lowest state. What blocked him and the small supermarket was a road that only allowed two cars to pass through. He walked carefully while observing the situation on both sides.

Fortunately! The zombies who walked away did not find themselves.

When he entered the glass door of the supermarket that had been broken, he could not see the shadow of a living zombie in the narrow space. Lao Zhao looked up at the inside of the supermarket. After just a glance, Lao Zhao couldn't help but feel disappointed.

The inside of the supermarket is very messy, and the two rows of shelves on the outermost side have collapsed. Although the shelves inside are not empty, most of the remaining daily necessities are useless.

Such as shampoo, shower gel, toothpaste and toothbrush, there is no sign of food or water at all.

Lao Zhao was unlucky because he hadn't eaten anything a day and night, and his stomach was empty. Not only was he soft and weak, but he also felt dizzy and tinnitus from time to time.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to survive now. There are more and more zombies in the county town and less and less food. Every time I look for food, I have to risk my life. Not only do I need to protect the zombies, but also other humans.

Just yesterday, Lao Zhao went through a lot of hardships to find a few packs of unopened instant noodles. He thought he could survive for a few days with those packs of instant noodles, but he was snatched by several survivors.

Those Huihui bastards were really hateful. They didn't even want to let go of things. If they weren't smart, they would have been chopped to the ground by Huihui.

"I searched for a whole morning and I had nothing to eat. How long can I last if I continue like this?" Old Zhao sighed slightly, tied his belt to the tightest, and turned around and prepared to leave.

Just as he was about to go out, Lao Zhao suddenly felt something grabbing his ankle, and then he fell to the ground uncontrollably. A piece of broken glass on the ground cut a hole in the palm of Lao Zhao's left hand, and blood suddenly flowed.

Lao Zhao didn't care about checking the injuries on his hand, and hurriedly turned around to see what happened. He was shocked and sweated in a cold sweat when he saw it. It turned out that a zombie with no lower body had crawled out from the bottom of the narrow counter of the supermarket.

The body is cut off from the waist, and the intestines and internal organs are exposed.

Although the zombie was only half of its upper body, it was very powerful. She grabbed her ankle tightly and tried her best to climb over and take a bite on Lao Zhao's body. The eyes were filled with blood red, and the expression was hideous and terrifying.
