Shepherding Humanity (Nurturing Humanity)

Three hundred and ninety-one years of the Empire of Man, April.

The "Adam Second Generation Incident" broke out. A murderous young man of unknown origin broke through the mechanism of shame and death, broke into the core research institute, killed the president Mi Livina, and perished with the patron saint Michael Qi, destroying the mechanical city Veolia .

The virus broke out.

The pride of the Ishdar people, Veolia, turned into a dead city, infecting tens of millions of people in the city, and it was called the biggest and worst desperate event of mankind in history.

The virus only has an effect on the C++ language. It destroys the defense mechanism of the Ishdar people, and other sea clans and monsters are not involved.

As an adult Ishdar, it is difficult to change the C++ language. Even if the permission is obtained, it is deeply rooted in the brain and requires complex brain surgery, which is simply impossible to implement in the zombie tide.

Empire 391, May.

Thirteen cities on the edge of Veolia quickly fell, and Caroline could no longer turn the tide. She concentrated a small number of Ishdar elite scientists to leave, migrated to Outland, and started the "Human Ark Project".

"We'll still be back."

They fled their homeland again just as they fled from the ancient lava field.

But most of the Ishdar people were forced to stay in the city and could not evacuate. They did not have any complaints, waiting for Ms. Caroline to lead the human elites to start research, find a way to crack the virus, and come back to save them.

They believed in their gods just as they believed in Levi's back then.

The surviving Ishdar people began to close the communication of consciousness, prevent the connection of consciousness from spreading the virus, restored the language transmission in ancient times, and shut down the information network satellite to prevent the virus from spreading through network channels.

Without the Internet and using language to communicate, human beings have returned to the era of primitive society!

On the streets, there are many walking corpses wandering. Survivors in the city are lingering in basements, shops, and communities, risking their lives, driving mechanical armors and mechanical motorcycles to find food outside.

The age of wasteland machinery has arrived.

In a ruined mechanical city in the south.

A young wizard wearing a black wizard robe, and a sturdy man without a shirt, showing perfect proportions of muscles like a sculpture, wearing white pearl earrings and a necklace of the Heart of the Ocean, strode forward.

On the streets, the streets are shabby and old, with all kinds of rubbish and blood everywhere, and a group of brain-dead Ishdar people are hanging around. Nice body.

Suddenly, they turned their heads, their eyes burst into scarlet, like wild beasts.

Whoa!

"Poor life, changed in just one month, turned into a beast without wisdom." Hai Landong flashed a trace of pity, stretched out his hand, and a protective shield appeared instantly.

All the zombies wandering on the street, because they suddenly lost their target and breath, wandered everywhere.

Xu Zhi just watched this scene curiously. It seemed no different from the zombie films in the movie. It was a virus, but it was a computer virus in the true sense.

He suddenly felt that the sandbox world in front of him was somewhat similar to wasteland science fiction, such as the well-known masterpieces "Borderlands" and "Fallout".

Xu Zhi entered a store, sorted out an alchemy table, reached out and flicked the table top, bottles and jars appeared in front of him, took a drop of black blood from the zombies that dried up on the ground, and shook the reagent.

Hai Landong's face was solemn, staring at Xu Zhi's ring with a hint of inconceivable, "This is space storage, super ancient civilization."

In this world, the Ishdar people rely on science and technology, and have not developed to the level of "making space" technology. The space technology on the scientific side may be later, or it has not been specially developed in this area.

After a while, Xu Zhi was a little surprised, looking at the test results of the reagents,

"Brain dead. It seems to be some fourth-order and fifth-order monsters without self-intelligence. Of course, there are more advanced ones, and they have not completely destroyed the brain. Although they still have no wisdom, they are written in memory spells, such as running. , jumping has become a memory instinct, and it still remains."

Xu Zhi looked at some special zombies. Among them, there was a fourth-order strong man zombie. It was a special species, with fast movements and wind spells. It was a very special existence.

He stretched out his palm and squeezed it in the air.

Bang!

The head of the zombie exploded, and a brain nucleus with white mucus flew out and fell into the palm of his hand.

Continuing to study, after half a day, the street zombies outside alternated, walking continuously, like a fast-forward projector, Hai Landong silently guarded next to him, his eyes were extremely curious, that was curiosity about the unknown.

Xu Zhi ignored him, suddenly exhaled, and realized the seriousness of the problem, "The virus is already terrible. Three generations of viruses have appeared, and they are still spreading."

"Three generations? Virus?" Hai Landong was puzzled.

Xu Zhi said: "It mutates wildly through the calculation of the human brain and turns into a mutant Trojan virus. This is also the main reason for the massive infection of human beings. Countless cities have fallen and turned into zombie areas of walking dead."

"You are amazing." Hai Landong let out a breath, "So soon there will be an analysis."

Xu Zhi's face was pale.

In terms of combat power, he is far inferior to this top heavenly emperor who can slaughter Finba. In the final analysis, he is only sixth-order. Even this mass extinction may push him to the quasi-emperor, but he is still a traditional wizard. The library of the world, after decades of ascetic cultivation and communication with Medusa for so long, has already developed the concept of a wizard.

Possessing the ideas, knowledge and wisdom of a wizard, coupled with the wisdom of the civilization in front of him, the supercomputer's brain is simply superimposed. For example, it is equivalent to a wizard with a brain chip.

"The virus is evolving, and Caroline cannot control the trend of destruction. It is like a variant of the Trojan horse virus and cannot be contained."

Xu Zhi continued to walk.

He collected some special zombie gene templates for research, but he was very curious about their principles. After all, even if the brain is digitized, it is still a very complex structure, and even some places are incomprehensible.

Hai Landong followed behind, becoming more and more curious.

Xu Zhi kept sorting out his conclusions, "I have discovered something terrible these days."

Hai Landong opened her eyes completely.

Xu Zhi said: "I said before that the restricted area of ​​life is a very scary thing. When the gene lock is opened, it is like this. The virus is evolving, which is equivalent to a program that is constantly evolving. Will it one day give birth to its own? wisdom?"

"You mean that this virus program is like the evolution of life, heading for the unknown?" Hai Landong was shocked and quickly reacted, "Yes, we have been imprisoning this aspect before, not allowing the 'program' to evolve on its own, and Right in front of you. On the way to unknown territory."

"The body of the Ishdar people is vacant, which is just an opportunity. Will it be replaced by another new race that is born with wisdom? You say, is it possible?"

"do not know."

Xu Zhi just answered calmly, and he and Hai Landong continued to move forward.

Whether it is a brand new era, whether the Ishdar people are extinct, is not certain.

And even in a brand-new era, the group of survivors led by Caroline can still carry on the continuation of the race, but it may be replaced by the dominant position. Who knows in the future?

The future is full of infinite possibilities.

"Perhaps, an alternative Genesis?"

He walked through ruined sci-fi cities, broken shops, streets, public facilities, and fences, all of which were walking dead. He stopped occasionally and took out the test bench on the spot to conduct various experiments to test the potential of a certain zombie.

"The birth of a new life?" Hai Landong looked at the possibility of this scene.

Suddenly his mind went blank.

He recalled the scene he saw in the eyes of the monster Fumba before. If Caroline saw the origin of human beings, then he undoubtedly saw the origin of the monster that belonged to him. He suddenly had an incredible idea in his heart, looking at this A young man in a wizard's robe.

Is it true that the magical beasts and human beings in those days were also this mysterious ancient god, wandering the earth, observing, guiding, and collecting data with some unknown technology just like today.

In fact, he has come close to the truth to some extent.

They walked all the way and crossed the ruins of the once-civilized city of Ishdar. Suddenly, a shout came from the window in the distance, "Help!"

Xu Zhi looked up and saw that it was a survivor girl, curled up in the toilet window on the third floor of the high-rise building, shaking her arms and shouting with her mouth.

Xu Zhi stretched out his hand, broke the window wall, and brought her in front of him.

The surrounding zombies roared a few times, and as soon as they were cut off by Hai Landong's mental protection shield, they stopped talking.

Xu Zhi handed over the water and bread.

"Thank you, thank you two adults!" She hurriedly surprised.

"What happened?" Hai Landong asked.

The girl said: "The end is coming. In the unit building of Yujin Community, neighbors communicate with spiritual thoughts, and many of them are infected. Now everyone is shielding themselves and can only communicate in words. A week ago, my parents went to the supermarket outside. , the result is"

She looked almost crying.

Xu Zhi was dumbfounded.

She revealed everything with one mouth, without any defense against others, she seemed a little innocent, but this is common sense.

The biggest difference between this apocalyptic world and other apocalyptic worlds is that there is no intrigue here, the manifestation of sinister human nature, and they are still restricted by shame and death. They can help each other and endure hardships together.

This also makes them a lot more comfortable, not so fast extinction.

"We believe that the rescue team will come, and the country will settle this turmoil and restore the glory of our Ishdar people." The girl is extremely firm, and every Ishdar person seems to believe this.

Xu Zhi seemed to see a small wave of all beings in the era, and thought for a while, "Did something special happen?"

The girl directly opened her mouth to exchange information, "A surviving convoy passed by and told me that in several cities in the south near the mechanical city Veolia, it is said that they have turned into Jedi, and terrifying monsters have appeared. It is said that it is too late to evacuate. died."

"Dead?" Hai Landong was stunned, looking into the depths of the city.

The girl replied: "It is said that there has been a special virus mutation and infection, and there is an atavistic phenomenon. Like the legendary murderer, it is muddy, sheds cellular fluid, has a long and narrow tongue, has a tail, and has a part of the shape of a monkey. It is extremely powerful and survived. are called lickers."
