dawn effect

Chapter 58
"Since he has a chip on him, how did he escape Skynet's tracking before?"

"Skynet is not omnipotent. In some places, such as the outer walls of buildings with more metal, it can block the Skynet signal. Zhou Ze hid in the basement of a bank ruin during the process of evading pursuit, and completed the work there." evolved."

Wang Li said: "Zhou Ze's mutation shows that the No. [-] injection has a catalytic effect on the evolution of the undead. It is difficult to count how many people in the barren town have used the No. [-] injection. This will be a trouble."

"But that's the Ministry of the Interior's troubles, and our Academy of Sciences doesn't care about it. The capture of Zhou Ze allows us to have a high-level mutant sample that can obtain physiological parameters in his body, which is extremely important for our scientific research."

"There are also samples taken from hospitals, which are also very important."

"May I know what that is?"

"Of course." Wang Li said with a smile: "You are a member of my Academy of Sciences, and there will be many similar tasks for you to complete in the future. Those samples are epidemic encephalitis virus."

"Virus?"

"Yes, undead and mutants have undergone great changes in their bodies. They are extremely dehydrated, except for one organ, which is still at the normal level before the mutation."

"Central nervous system - cerebellum, brainstem and spinal cord." Tangning understood immediately.

"Yes, this is a plan proposed by Qiuyi. If the nervous system of the undead is at a normal level, can we spread the virus to infect the nervous system of the undead and the mutants to achieve biological killing? Purpose."

Tangning couldn't help shivering, looking at the cold girl beside her, she was so cruel.

Zhang Qiuyi sensed Tangning's gaze, "It's not that easy. Meningitis is transmitted through the air, mosquitoes, and polio is transmitted through virus-contaminated water and food. Undead people don't seem to need carbohydrate metabolism, and there is no way to digest and absorb polio. It was cut off."

"They usually seem to be in a state of suspended animation, and it is difficult to spread through the air; the skin, blood and muscles also have special structures, and mosquitoes are not interested in them. The samples we obtained are all samples that can be transmitted to humans. The spread of Chinese medicine requires long-term research."

Tangning thought for a while, "Has the Academy of Sciences made any achievements regarding the evolution mechanism of the undead?"

"Do you think that the undead have evolved a special nutritional intake system that they can use?" Zhang Qiuyi's tone unconsciously carried a hint of contempt that she might not have realized: "Unfortunately, we are Professionals, we have carefully studied the paths you have thought about."

"It must be." Tangning respected professionals, "I'm just talking about my own observations. By the way, it seems that immortals are afraid of light and water..."

"This has something to do with their bodies. Without carbohydrate intake, the muscles need to be kept dry enough to meet the requirements of both preservation and strength. Therefore, in addition to exceeding the nervous system of human activity, the water in their bodies must be kept far less than what the human body must degree."

"But because there is too little water, that balance is easily broken, so they are also afraid of sunlight and high temperature, because that will aggravate the water loss in their bodies."

"Where does their water intake come from?"

"According to studies, they are able to absorb trace amounts of moisture that is present in the air."

Wang Li interrupted Tang Ning's questioning, "Now that I have the virus and vaccine, I will hand them over to the Institute of Virology for research. The most important thing for your team now is to improve the functions of Pluto Warriors."

"Tangning, you are right. Because the undead are afraid of water, the military will launch a rainy season offensive against the unrecovered areas of the capital city of Shu. You need to cooperate with Lu Jin and Autumn, and practice more. Pluto's super sense force unit, It must be finalized before this. In this offensive, Pluto fighters must play a role and act as the vanguard!"

"Yes!"

……

……

There are many subway lines in the underground of Shudu. The earliest top floor of the tower was actually developed slowly with the airport waiting hall and underground transportation station as shelters.

Later, the lower floor was expanded and some underground passages were also used.

However, for the sake of safety, after the settlement gained a firm foothold, it began to block some of the outer subway stations to prevent being attacked by undead and mutant beasts, and concentrated on developing independent residential towers downward.

Now that the settlement finally has the strength, it is decided to open these passages again, and use the underground network extending in all directions to carry out a leapfrog cleaning of the central city.

Pluto warriors will not attract undead attacks, it is the best tool to go deep into the abandoned city.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the underground transportation network in Shudu, which had been closed for many years, was reopened.

Two Pluto warriors walked forward along the empty subway passage.

Behind them, dragged a track cart, on which were two huge boxes.

As for the ecological cabins that operate these two Pluto fighters, one is in the military laboratory of the Academy of Sciences, and the other is in the Training Department of the Logistics Bureau of the Security Command.

The Pluto Warrior has basically determined its appearance. Because it is an agile bionic robot, its limbs and metal armor are very compact, making them look a little "slender" at a height of [-] meters.

The body of the robot is designed to be very smooth. There is a metal blade on the forelimb near the elbow joint and the lower limb near the knee joint.

Usually it can be used as a shield to protect the joints. When the robot bends its knees or elbows, these are four powerful weapons.

The robot carries an alloy long knife on its back, and an external pulse pistol is installed on the outside of its right leg, which is an enlarged version of the well-designed poultry automatic pistol.

Originally, there was a set of four transparent aluminum photovoltaic cells on the back of the robot similar to the elytra of a beetle, which can temporarily charge the robot, but now it is operating in a subway tunnel, so of course it is not needed, so it was temporarily removed.

The robot is only seventy centimeters taller than an ordinary person, which is not huge, but it is almost as flexible and agile as a human.

Now the two Pluto warriors in the tunnel can be seen from their gait, there are subtle differences in coordination and flexibility.

Super Sense 110 is the minimum limit for manipulating Pluto Warriors. In the entire settlement, only Tang Ning, the No. 110 experimenter of the Academy of Sciences, can use [-]% of Super Sense to maximize the effectiveness of Pluto Warriors. The autumn jade fold, which is very optimistic, can only reach [-]%.

"Loach! I didn't expect to fight side by side so soon."

"I didn't expect that I would be so honored to be selected to manipulate the Pluto warrior."

Tang Ning opened the way in front, and Qiu Yuzhe dragged the cart behind. The mission goal of the two of them this time was to clean up the block from Qingyang Palace to the People's Hospital.

They're going to trap the nursing college there.

There were countless undead hidden underground. Except for those who stood on the railway track and were stabbed to death by Tangning, the other two ignored them.

After this period of training, the two of them were used to being in such a densely populated environment of undead people.

Every time he walks a section, Qiu Yuzhe will place a light mine in the center of the track, with sound playback equipment attached to the light mine, which will attract all the undead within one kilometer of the station to there.

After walking another kilometer, a blue light will flash behind the two of them. After the sound of "buzz", the nervous system of the undead people in the countless passages will be destroyed by the light and thunder pulse, and the dead bodies will remain.

"Loach, are you okay at home?" Tangning didn't even draw the knife, the Pluto warrior clenched his fists together, and a sharp dagger protruded from the front of his knuckles.

Grabbing the head of an unresponsive undead man, Tangning pierced the dagger through his ear socket and threw it outside the railroad tracks.

"The family is fine now. Thank you Guokui!" Qiu Yuzhe thanked Tangning sincerely.

Both use the nickname of the Neptune Training Base.

The contribution value of this job is very high, more than 20 can be earned in a month, and Qiu Yuzhe can easily support a family now.

"We still have to eat better." Tangning was worried that Qiu Yuzhe would transfer all his contribution points, "You have to ensure your physical strength so that your family can live a better life."

"Understood." The blue light spot exploded behind the two of them again, shining on the metal shells of the two of them.

"Here we are." The two walked for more than two hours. Tangning saw the subway sign ahead of "Provincial Hospital Station" and said, "Go up."

The two carried a huge box on their backs, opened the glass door that closed the tunnel, entered the station, and used the unlocking device to control the glass door, closing it again.

After finding the communication port of the subway optical cable, Tangning took out a signal transceiver from his chest and connected it to it.

Skynet satellite signals cannot be received underground, and this adapter can be installed to ensure that the next section of the tunnel also has Skynet signals.

There are more undead in the station than in the tunnel, and many of them choose to hide from the sun here.

They didn't block the road, so they ignored them. After installing the adapter, the two came to the road from the subway entrance.

The two walked along the main road, one after the other, to the gate of the Nursing College.

Opening the map, the two put down the box and began to set up roadblocks.

This set of tactics is actually an extension of the tactics invented by the Flame and Ouroboros team. The city is divided into independent areas by dividing the roads, and then the undead in the areas are attracted to an open area, and the light and thunder are used to divide the city into independent areas. kill them.

The strength of Pluto warriors far exceeds that of ordinary people, and they can be used as roadblocks for many things-vehicles on the side of the road, fences in the middle of the road, and even gates of nearby buildings.

The mission of the Pluto warriors is to kill low-level undead on the largest scale. As long as there is no "crowd" of undead, and the remaining sporadic high-level individuals, the remaining troops can calmly deal with them.

This work took a long time, and the two had to close the Sendian Bridge, Jinjiang Bridge, Qingyang Shangjie First Ring Road intersection, and the external passages of the units along the way.

It is also necessary to open passages between the walls of the districts and units along the way, so that this area can become an area where undead can move freely.

Tangning was in charge of this, and Qiu Yuzhe was in charge of arranging Guanglei in the Nursing College.

Between the two areas, there was only one Modi River Bridge left to pass through.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, after the trap was set up, Tangning carried a large box to the roof of the provincial hospital building.

Open the box, and there are eight saucer-shaped things inside, which are silver-disc drones.

The drone rose slowly and flew towards the streets and alleys in this area, and then played the undead VHF, slowly guiding the undead that appeared one after another, and walked towards the Modi River Bridge.
