Apocalypse Mutants Rise

Chapter 58 The Egg of Death
Yao Yan slowly opened her eyes, her expression was weak and she still couldn't tell what was going on.

"Lie down honestly, it will be fine soon~"

Xiao Qiang was talking on the side, and then I saw him roasting a bent steel bar on the fire, and there was a metal pot on the bent part of the steel bar.

"This is, what am I?" Yao Yan sat up propped up.

The quilt slipped from her upper body, Yao Yan was startled suddenly.

Why is there only one black vest left?Should have been wearing a sweater.And this quilt, this place?Where is this?
"You have a high fever, cover the quilt and don't move around." Xiao Qiang said.

"Where are we?"

"It's not far from the research institute. It's a private rest stop." Xiao Qiang held the iron rod in his hand between several layers of cardboard boxes, and the metal pot on the other end was still covered and roasting in the fire. The means of transportation you used, you burned so badly, so you stopped here temporarily. Don’t worry, I have cleaned up the zombies in this house, but you’d better not go in, the smell inside is too strong.”

Yao Yan exhaled, and looked at Xiao Qiang who was concentrating on holding the iron fork in his hand.

The cold wind continued to hit, and the quilt was covered tightly again.Only then did he realize that both of his arms were covered with bandages, and the bandages were very rough.But the clumsy wrapping also filled it with some warmth.

"I found it randomly. The wound medicine I saw on TV before, I applied some and wrapped it up with a bandage." Xiao Qiang said with a little embarrassment, "Does it still hurt?"

Yao Yan smiled, shook her head, but tightened the quilt a little more, and didn't say much.

Finally, the pot that Xiao Qiang was roasting on the fire seemed to be opened, and steam came out continuously.

Withdrew immediately, it was a bowl of soup.

Passed it to Yao Yan, then added some water, and unwrapped a few packets of instant noodles on the side.

Continue to roast on the fire.

Although she didn't feel much hunger, Yao Yan was really hungry all day long.A meal of instant noodles is also considered a dinner.

After boiling water, Xiao Qiang handed over the thermometer again and asked Yao Yan to take a good measure.

Then he filled the fire with a few handfuls of firewood.

It doesn't matter whether it will attract zombies from around here.And it's not so easy to find a zombie in this wilderness.As for the research institute, there are indeed many monsters in it, but those monsters should not come out so casually.Otherwise, this wasteland would not have always been so peaceful.

Thinking of this, Xiao Qiang couldn't help turning his head and asking, "By the way, what useful information did you see in the database?"

Yao Yan drank hot water and frowned slightly: "Do you want to hear it now?"

Of course Xiao Qiang responded directly with a quick nod.

Putting down the bowl holding the hot water, a gust of cold wind blows through, making people want to get closer to the fire that emits heat.Yao Yan began to recall:

"In that database, almost all of them are absolutely confidential documents. It may be because it is out of control, so it is easy to get in. Otherwise, I may never understand those things."

Xiao Qiang raised his spirits, always feeling that he would hear something amazing next.

"It's a research institute on the surface, but it's actually a blackened project wrapped in a pharmaceutical factory and research institute."

"Blackening? Then, what project?"

"Virus factory." Yao Yan said.

Xiao Qiang was stunned, the boiling water beside him had already boiled, but he didn't pay attention to it at all.Listening to these four words, one can understand what's going on just by the literal meaning.However, this is a bit too outrageous.

Then Yao Yan continued to talk.The reason why this research institute is closed by you is because you don't want any viruses and the like to leak out, it is easier to study, and it can be covered with a cloak that outsiders can't understand.

They specialize in the entire last days, extracting the virus cells in the bodies of those known and unknown monsters.Then cultivate and regenerate.

"I saw one of their record reports..." Yao Yan couldn't help frowning as she spoke.

What is recorded in the report is the end-time investigation conducted by a team of people sent by the research institute.That is to say, like searching, to find those new biochemical monsters.

After the team crossed several provincial boundaries, they found nothing.In addition to ordinary zombies, you can only occasionally encounter some giant zombies.

The road was bumpy, and most of the team members died on the road.There were only six people left in the team of more than 20 people.

But along the way, they also found that not only the infected body, but also the virus cells in the zombie body were undergoing decomposition and changes.A more popular explanation is that it is also evolving.

It's just that this kind of virus decomposition and evolution is not common, and only some zombies with better aptitude have this ability.

Dramatically, when they entered an abandoned city on the border and were about to return.In a crematorium, something extraordinary was found.

That thing made everyone extremely uneasy.It is a ball wrapped in flesh and blood, more like a huge egg.

When I saw the egg, there was a corpse lying next to it.He hadn't had time to be cremated yet, but his body was already extremely rotten. After his death, he was bitten by the zombies passing by here, and his body was already mutilated.

But what terrified everyone was her stomach, which seemed to have been dug open, and the ball-shaped egg obviously came out of her body.

Apart from the fear, it was also like having a new discovery. These people were a little excited, so they packed it up and prepared to take it back.

On the way back, they tried to avoid the main roads where there were many zombies.Because there are only six people left in the original team.Fortunately, there is a harvest, so the first thing is to go back to the research institute.

After traveling a long distance and crossing several provincial borders, the six of them finally returned to the institute.

But what is creepy is that all six of them were insane, and one of them committed suicide by swallowing a gun on the third day after returning.

The Institute provided the best doctors, but none of them could see any problems.It's like suddenly going crazy for no reason.

At that time, some people in the research institute began to circulate, saying that they touched something they shouldn't.So it was punished.

Not long after, the matter of the egg became known to the personnel in the research institute.

But what puzzled everyone was that there were signs of life such as a heartbeat inside the egg, as well as a pulse.

But how is it possible, how could a thing rolling out of a dead body still have signs of life?
The establishment of the Institute is to solve these things.So they began to do various experiments with this egg.

Soon, something exciting happened for everyone.

After the cells extracted from this egg were transplanted into the bodies of other zombies, the bodies of these zombies seemed to have evolved and began to change.

The body gradually weakened, and finally became as thin as skin and bones.But the food intake remained unchanged.

But the body has mutated joints, and the speed is extremely fast.

It seems that progress has been made towards the entire last days.The person in charge also habitually thought that as long as there are cells that can change those zombies, they can do it the other way around. After the transformation, the zombies can also be destroyed.

And that skinny monster was named "Speed ​​Zombie".

Then a series of experiments were carried out, and even a few giant zombies were caught to do the experiments.

It's just that the related experiments with giant zombies didn't make much progress. After the virus cells extracted from the eggs were injected into the giant zombie's body, the giant zombie didn't change in any way.

So the researchers wondered if the virus cells are selective?

Then something astonishing happened.In order to facilitate research, the Institute sent the virus cell samples extracted from the eggs to research sites around the world, hoping to make further breakthroughs as soon as possible.

However, the days passed gradually, and when the people in the research institute thought that this thing was useless.A related progress was sent suddenly from country M, which was also a warning letter.

The warning letter stated that this virus cell is still evolving and saturating.And it is very afraid of ultraviolet rays, but it cannot be ruled out that one day, after the virus cells are saturated, they will be able to run amok in the sun.It also warns that it is best to destroy this virus cell as soon as possible, otherwise no one knows what it will evolve into.

But in order to make progress, those at the institute ignored this advice.

Start bolder experiments.That is... human trials.

But everything is going on in secret.

After recruiting volunteers, the virus cells extracted from the eggs were injected into their bodies.

As time passed, the results achieved made everyone even more excited.

After the virus cells were injected into the human body, the cells and tissues of these people began to change, and they began to gradually become infected bodies!

And for the natural infected body that survives one in a thousand infected animal viruses in the last days, this kind of infectious body creation is [-]%!

Once there is creation, you can go back and destroy in reverse order.

In the experiment conducted at that time, 12 people became infected.There is a heartbeat and a pulse, and they also have human consciousness. Although the degree of cell fusion is extremely low, they also have the instinct to eat meat.There's no such thing as getting out of control.

But later, something even more disturbing happened.The spherical egg began to gradually lose signs of life.

In the end, it seems to die, and the virus cells extracted from it no longer have any effect.

But at this time, the person who recorded these things also found that he was also a little abnormal recently.Both body and mind.

But he didn't dare to say it out, and secretly discovered that everyone who had been in contact with that egg began to become a little abnormal.

There will be high temperature in the body, and the consciousness will be pulled at any time, and the memory will sometimes become blurred and sometimes clear.

At the end of this record, the man wrote.In the evening, further experiments on those created infected bodies will be carried out, and this time almost the majority of the entire institute will participate.And that egg, because it lost its use value, was put into the refrigerator.

"These are all the records." Yao Yan said after taking another sip of the hot water in the bowl.

Xiao Qiang froze in place.Undoubtedly, something must have happened to the experiment that night, which is why the institute fell completely.

"I also found an email that I didn't read." Yao Yan continued, "It was sent from country M, telling them to stop the experiment immediately, the virus cells created a new product...biochemical body. "

"Life, biochemical body?" Xiao Qiang was subconsciously stunned.

"It's those monsters with python-like tentacles." Yao Yan said, "They didn't create the infected body. Afterwards, those who underwent the experiment were completely out of control and brain-dead, but except for being unconscious, everything else was very similar to the infected body. They called it For biochemicals."

"Wait……"

Xiao Qiang interrupted suddenly, his face suddenly turned pale, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, his pupils dilated, as if receiving extreme fear.

"You just said, where did the egg end up?"
