Daming: Lend the system to Emperor Hongwu at the beginning

Chapter 231 Dawning Research Institute 【Seeking Monthly Pass】

"These guys can actually sense the outside."

Zhu Biao's heart trembled. To be honest, he didn't even find out about it before.

However, his reaction was quick. With a wave of his hand, more than 30 explosion symbols appeared out of thin air and stuck to the nearby petri dish with a bang bang bang.

He may not have brought much other things this time, but the talismans are enough, especially this kind of explosive talisman, which he used instead of grenades.

An Explosive Talisman is more than twice as powerful as a grenade, but it is easier to activate and lighter to use than a grenade.

That's why Zhu Biao didn't bring any firearms except for the mecha this time.

When the cultivation base reaches a certain level, the convenience brought by the use of firearms can also be brought to him by the means of cultivating immortals, and it is even more durable and useful than firearms.

"Slow down, don't do it, they are not malicious!"

Suddenly, the skull that had just been fainted by Zhu Biao suddenly jumped up and stood in front of Zhu Biao.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Biao couldn't help but stop his movements, not because he was blocked by the skull. For him, it was just a matter of his own thought to activate these talismans. He just suddenly wanted to hear what the skull wanted to say .

It stands to reason that this guy was dizzy by himself, so he couldn't wake up for a while, but the fact is that he didn't even have a quarter of an hour in a coma, and he was alive and kicking again.

If it is said that he has no secrets, then Zhu Biao absolutely does not believe it.

"Then explain it!"

"What's going on here!" Zhu Biao pointed to the petri dish behind the skull, and at the same time, with a thought, all the bright lights on the explosion symbols began to converge.

The skeleton quickly squeezed out a smile towards Zhu Biao, but it was strange to see a skull smiling at someone.

Seeing his smiling face, Luo Yun and Luo Meng raised their guns almost reflexively.

Apparently this person also realized this very quickly, and quickly put away his smile and raised his hands to explain: "We really have no malicious intentions, we are just a group of researchers."

"My name is Chen Guang, and my wife Yuehua is behind my back, and the people in these petri dishes are all my former colleagues. We belong to the ancient kingdom of Donghuang before the disaster, the Dawn Research Institute."

"Everything we do is to crack the zombie virus and save mankind."

"The current appearance of my colleagues is only due to an experimental accident. They accidentally inhaled some zombie virus vaccines, which caused the cells in the body to mutate. As a last resort, I can only seal them in these petri dishes and let their bodies fall into a deep sleep , use these inhibitory solutions to inhibit cell regeneration in their bodies."

"But don't worry, they still retain human consciousness, and they are still alive if strictly counted."

"You have been hiding here all these years to do research?" Luo Yun couldn't help asking.

She just turned around here and found the cameras monitoring all directions of the fort above.

And she and her sister have been using this place as a safe house for the past few years.

Luo Yun couldn't help getting goosebumps when he remembered that their every move in the past few years was being watched by the so-called "researchers" below.

"No, for some reason I have been in a deep sleep before. I just woke up three hours ago, and they...you have also seen it, because that accident has always maintained this state!"

"Their actions just now are similar to the conditioned reflex in sleep. They don't even have the most basic consciousness now, and they definitely have no intention of attacking you!" Chen Guang explained again.

"You said that the research you did was to crack the zombie virus, so... have you found a way to crack it?" Luo Meng asked.

Hearing this, Chen Guang couldn't help showing a wry smile. He spread his hands and said helplessly, "If we really found it, then we wouldn't be in the ghostly state we are now."

Speaking of which, Chen Guang paused for a while, and said again: "Although we haven't found it completely, we have determined the research direction, and this time I wake up, I have become different."

"I have a hunch that it won't be long before the unresolved side effects of the zombie virus vaccine will be completely resolved. By then, my colleagues will be able to be revived, and the vaccine will be widely promoted."

"And most importantly, this vaccine can also improve the physical fitness of soldiers on a large scale. If this vaccine is widely promoted in our ancient Donghuang country, it will be just around the corner to eliminate these zombies."

Speaking of this, Chen Guang said with anticipation: "By the way, you are from outside, can you tell me what's going on outside now, how is Donghuang doing now?"

"Donghuang?"

Luo Meng smiled wryly and shook his head: "Donghuang has long since disappeared. The entire territory of Donghuang was already occupied by zombies six years ago, and you don't have to work hard to research vaccines anymore. Survivors who are still alive now, basically They have already opened the gene lock independently, and are immune to the zombie virus."

"Those who cannot open the gene lock have long since died..."

Chen Guang: "...!"

"what……!"

In the bathroom of the fort above, two siblings, Luo Meng and Luo Yun, were taking a shower.

At the moment when the hot water fell, the two women couldn't help but let out a groan at the same time. This feeling was so wonderful that they even forgot when was the last time they took a bath with water.

"Sister, since Brother Zhu broke into our lives, it seems that our luck has suddenly improved!"

"Could you have imagined that one day we could take a bath with hot water like this?" Luo Yun leaned against the wall behind him, letting the hot water flow through his body, with a hint of trepidation in his tone. Unusual opening.

"This is not luck, it is brought by strength!"

Luo Meng and his younger sister leaned there side by side, a flash of determination flashed in their eyes and said: "Little sister, I have already made up my mind. I will absorb the three magic cores tomorrow and try to open the fourth gene lock."

"sister……!"

"How about we wait a few more days!"

"There is no danger in the fortress now, and Brother Zhu will not go out to hunt zombies these days. Now we have food, red wine, and electricity. Why don't we try to open it after enjoying it for a few days!" Luo Yun There was some hesitation in his eyes.

Unlocking the gene lock is not an easy task.

It can even be said that every time they unlock the gene lock, it is a narrow escape for them, and it is an experience that they never want to recall.

Both Luo Meng and Luo Yun had opened the gene lock three times before, except that the first time they opened the gene lock was because they were scratched by zombies and passively opened it without knowing it.

They know a lot about the experience of unlocking the gene lock.

That is simply not something humans can bear.

Too painful and too dangerous.

The magic core is not only the key to unlock the gene lock, but also the zombie virus itself.

It's just that it is a little milder than the zombie virus carried by zombies.

Swallowing the magic core is actually tantamount to experiencing cell changes in the body and experiencing the zombification of oneself in a waking state.

In such a situation, it is tantamount to dying and reviving.

If the gene lock cannot be unlocked and the body is completely adapted to the zombie virus in the magic core, what awaits them is that the cells will be completely diseased and become irrational zombies.

It can be said that if it wasn't for their own special physiques, which could adapt to the cell lesions in the body caused by the zombie virus more quickly, plus a little bit of luck, they would have died long ago.

"No!"

"It's tomorrow!"

A flash of determination flashed in Luo Meng's eyes: "I can't wait any longer, I'm afraid I'll lose the courage to unlock the gene lock if I wait any longer."

"Is it really decided?"

When Luo Meng told Zhu Biao of this decision the next day, Zhu Biao was also a little surprised.

In the past two days together, Zhu Biao has already understood the risks of opening the gene lock, especially the fourth gene lock is even more dangerous.

Because as long as this gene lock is opened, it is equivalent to possessing the strength of an ordinary tyrant, which is far behind the power they had when they opened the three gene locks before.

According to them, after opening the fourth gene lock, it is even possible to have some special abilities.

They had encountered a human being who had unlocked four gene locks before and had the ability to control metal.

Although there are different ways to advance to the extraordinary, it is actually the same when you step from the seventh level to the sixth level. This is a big bottleneck. No matter what kind of extraordinary system you take, this threshold can stop most people.

Even the zombies are the same, otherwise there would be no difference between a tyrant and an ordinary zombie.

"It's decided!"

Luo Meng nodded with a firm gaze, hesitated for a while and said: "Brother Zhu, if I lose control, please trouble Brother Zhu to kill me, and don't let me become those walking corpses outside.

"Okay!" Zhu Biao nodded.

Seeing that Luo Meng was about to return to his room and try to break through, Zhu Biao stopped her again, pondered for a while and said, "Why don't you try it in front of me, and I can help you if there is any emergency. you!"

"Okay!" Luo Meng hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Although the breakthrough process would be painful, and she would become very ugly, but as a person who has lived in the end times for ten years, she no longer cares about these.

All she cares about is whether she can survive the attempt.

But now there is Zhu Biao's protector who has a mysterious origin and many means, which is obviously much safer than breaking through alone.

Of course she was very happy.

After receiving the news that Luo Meng was going to try to open the fourth gene lock, Chen Guang, who was still in the crazy experiment for the next two days, also caught up.

The researcher was only depressed for half an hour after knowing that the ancient kingdom of Donghuang had vanished into thin air, and then devoted himself to his research career again.

In his words, a guy like Luo Yun who independently acquired the ability to immunize against zombie viruses can only be regarded as a genetic mutation, and it is not universal. What he wants to study is a drug that is suitable for the general public so that ordinary humans can also successfully immunize against zombies. Virus vaccine.

Although this side of the world probably no longer has ordinary humans, he doesn't know what is the use of researching this vaccine.

But at least his colleagues, forced to lie dormant in bottles, needed the vaccine.

For Chen Guang's idea, Zhu Biao is quite supportive.

Because of his research on the zombie virus vaccine, Zhu Biao realized a possibility.

Maybe this will be a brand new way of cultivation.

Of course, it is still early to say the way. After all, this vaccine is actually a zombie virus, but it only suppresses part of its aggressiveness, making it suitable for most ordinary people.

In other words, it is still a risk of infection.

After seeing the extremely powerful aggressiveness and contagiousness of this zombie virus, Zhu Biao was one of the 1 people who did not want it to appear in the Ming Empire.

This vaccine is still an extremely long way from becoming a harmless practice.

But you can still look forward to it.

After all, what if it succeeds!

Anyway, it wouldn't do him any harm to leave Chen Guang and others to continue researching.

Soon Luo Meng adjusted to the best condition.

Under the eyes of Chen Guang, Zhu Biao, and his younger sister Luo Yun, Luo Meng took a deep breath, took out a white magic core and swallowed it without hesitation.

"Is this... so simple and rude?" Chen Guang stared at this scene with wide eyes.

He didn't expect Luo Meng to unlock the gene lock like this.

It was too rough in his eyes.

He naturally knew something like a magic core. He had seen it before he went dormant, and even owned the extremely cherished blue magic core.

After all, the Dawn Research Institute they were in before was one of the top ten research institutes in the ancient Donghuang Kingdom, and the extremely precious magic cores in the early stage of zombie looting were actually not uncommon in their hands.

If it weren't for this, there wouldn't be a blue magic core in his mind.

But he really didn't expect that after seven or eight years, the use of the magic core by these survivors outside is still so barbaric, no wonder the death rate of opening the gene lock is so high.

"Otherwise what should I do?"

"Have you stewed the magic core?"

"Do you think that everyone is as lucky as you old officials and lords!" Luo Yun saw that the morning light was not very pleasing to the eye, and at this moment, under the impatience in his heart, he couldn't help but sarcastically.

Chen Guang shut his mouth knowingly when he heard the words, he had seen the violence of this girl before.

In this case, it is better to avoid the edge temporarily.

"Humph……!"

Soon Luo Meng had a reaction. The skin all over her body was festering rapidly, and then healed quickly, and then festered again, and healed again.

This is only what can be seen from the outside, but at this moment, the flesh, bones, and even internal organs of her whole body are violently expanding, or mutating.

The direct consequence of this is endless pain.

This pain can't be expressed in words, she really wanted to faint, but now even fainting has become a luxury, she suddenly turned her head to look at Zhu Biao, with a hint of pleading in her eyes.

"Kill me, Brother Zhu, quickly... kill me quickly!" she growled.

Zhu Biao pondered for a while when he heard the words, and his figure flashed directly in front of Luo Meng. The golden light was exposed on the palm of his hand for a moment, and then he pressed down suddenly.
