Chapter 114 If he hadn't brought this upon himself, how could things have turned out like this?
"clear."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
Once Cheng Shun and his group had finished their tests, Guo Yong ordered them to continue.
It's still early, so they need to collect as much as possible about this world.
The group continued walking through the ruins of the city.
What lay before them was a deathly silence.
There were no chirping insects, no birdsong, and certainly no roaring traffic.
All that remains is desolation and ruin.
And the faint sound of their footsteps as they walked down the street.
The entire city seemed to be completely isolated.
It evokes a sense of loneliness in one's heart.
"Flying at high altitudes will allow us to explore the entire city as much as possible."
Guo Yong pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice.
immediately.
The drone flew high into the sky.
In the live footage transmitted by the drone, everything, no matter how small, appears to shrink.
And those skyscrapers gradually came into view.
The giant GG sign, creaking and rusting in the wind, swayed constantly.
On some streets, dried bloodstains can even be seen scattered on the road, presenting a completely different scene.
"This place is truly and utterly desolate."
Staring at the live feed, Guo Yong couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.
A highly intelligent civilization, just like humans, met its end because of a tiny zombie virus.
Guo Yong couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
However, it was only a tiny bit.
After all, the less resistance the native inhabitants face, the greater their chances of conquering the planet.
Even though they don't yet know what minerals this planet has that the Great Xia could use, they can probably enable this civilization to enter the information age.
The mineral resources on this planet may be just as abundant as those on Earth.
As the search scope continues to expand.
As dusk approached, the sky gradually darkened.
During this period, Guo Yong led his team to explore several places that he thought might be useful.
Unfortunately.
What those places offered them was far less than what they had received from the previous bookstore, even though most of the books in that bookstore had long since deteriorated.
As the glow of the setting sun slants across the skyscrapers, it also means that their day of exploration is almost over.
A cold wind blew, stirring up wisps of dust on the ground.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Guo Yong used a drone to find a relatively easy-to-guard two-story building.
Stay on the top floor of the second floor.
Feeling the chill of the wind brushing against his face, Han Bei couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"So, the world is this quiet when no one's around?"
"To be precise, it should be a world with few people."
Su Yang corrected him, and at the same time took out a bag of dry food and tossed it to Han Bei.
Tearing open the packaging, Han Bei couldn't help but gaze at the crescent moon in the sky, which shimmered with a silvery-white light.
The moon here seems larger than the moon on Earth, and the light it reflects is also much stronger.
The entire city was bathed in a soft silver light.
The stars in the sky kept twinkling slightly.
It's dazzling.
"Dr. Su, tell me. Now that this planet has entered the information age, why has it been turned into this horrific state by a zombie virus?"
I tore open the packaging and took a bite of the dry food.
Han Bei couldn't help but speak softly.
In his view.
This zombie civilization, which has entered the information age alongside humanity, should not have degenerated to this state.
"I wonder, maybe it's another idea from a scientist with extremely crazy ideas like Ambrosio?"
Su Yang shook his head and chewed on his dry rations.
Beside him was a cold incandescent lamp.
No fire was lit.
In this zombie-infested world, a fire source represents heat over a large area, and the surrounding zombies.
It's highly likely that they'll all be attracted to it.
So, just to be on the safe side, they did not choose to light a fire.
However, the temperature here at night is not too low.
At best, it's similar to the cool breeze of an autumn night, and it won't make you feel the biting cold.
"Too."
Han Bei remained silent.
If they hadn't brought this upon themselves, how could they have ended up with everyone here, or even the vast majority of them, being infected and turned into zombies?
I caught a glimpse of something far away on the street, seemingly swaying back and forth.
Han Bei narrowed his eyes, and after confirming that he was not mistaken, he called Guo Yong over.
After observing with military night vision goggles, Guo Yong nodded.
"Those are indeed zombies. And there are more of them than the zombies we dealt with before."
"So, does that mean these zombies are much more active at night than during the day?"
Su Yang was also constantly checking the zombies through night vision goggles.
They are more active at night.
This does fit the situation in the movie quite well, but I wonder if there are any crystal cores inside those zombies?
However, Su Yang felt that the probability was probably not very high.
The skulls of the zombies they had killed earlier contained nothing but black blood and darkened cerebrospinal fluid.
The skulls of the zombies they had killed earlier contained nothing but black blood and darkened cerebrospinal fluid.
Of course.
It is also possible that the conditions for the formation of so-called crystal nuclei are extremely harsh.
After they slaughter thousands upon thousands of zombies, maybe they can get a piece?
However, since it was just something from a movie, Su Yang didn't really care about it.
What he cares about is always the mineral deposits buried deep beneath the planet.
"Speaking of which, what do those zombies eat? Even if there are survivors now, they are pitifully few. If no one eats them, do the zombies not need a food source?"
Under the night vision goggles, the figures were clearly visible.
Han Bei couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Could it be that, like in the movies, zombies don't need to eat at all?
if it is like this.
Wouldn't that make a perpetual motion machine?
No, it can't be called a perpetual motion machine, after all, no matter how much a zombie is enhanced, its physical attributes are still what they are.
After decades or even centuries, those zombies might have simply fallen apart?
If that's the case, it should be called new zombie energy.
After all, zombies don't need food.
In the eyes of capital, it's a hot commodity.
They don't need to be paid, fed, or even have housing.
This is definitely a qualified workhorse.
"I wonder if these zombies are afraid of light."
Guo Yong murmured.
When they crossed over, there was almost no sunlight; only as evening approached did a little light fall.
Think no more.
Guo Yong then ordered that the guard duty should still be carried out in small teams.
They worked in shifts every three hours until it was completely light.
As with previous time travels, taking turns on duty has become an unspoken understanding among everyone.
Even if Guo Yong didn't need it, the team members would spontaneously start keeping watch.
Compared to before, it's much easier to guard this two-story rooftop.
