Virus Throne

Back at the military camp, the three of them chatted for a long time in Xu Youran's barracks.

After Professor Chen and Captain Ge said their goodbyes and left, Xu Youran sat at the table and fell into deep thought.

How should these new humans be managed?

It turns out that when I started thinking about this issue, the country had already started taking action.

The newly established Council of Awakened People is a bit interesting. Does it want us Awakened People to manage ourselves?

Invite yourself to join the Nanjiang branch of the Awakened Council and perform tasks.

This should be a good thing for myself.

When others perform tasks, the biggest threat may come from the infection of new viruses, and what I lack most is the infection of new viruses.

He should have an advantage in defensive awakening skills, and his survival probability should be far higher than other awakened people.

However, he also has many shortcomings. His physical strength is too low, his speed is too slow, and most importantly, his fighting experience is almost zero.

There must be many masters in combat in the army. Can I take advantage of this opportunity and seize the time to learn?

With my defense, as long as I don't encounter silver-level mutant beasts, I should have no problem protecting myself.

There are endless mutant beasts out there that can be my sparring partners. I am now taking a day off and assisting in defense.

You can try to use your rest time to learn more fighting skills.

When participating in assisting defense, rush into the herd of mutated beasts to practice actual combat.

This should be something that needs to be implemented urgently in the near future.

Thinking of those young warriors who bravely sacrificed their lives to fight against the mutated beasts, his heart could not calm down for a long time.

The next day, at dawn, a loud bugle woke Xu Youran from his sleep.

Because they are not regular soldiers, they do not need to participate in morning exercises.

After washing up and having a simple breakfast, Xu Youran walked out of the barracks.

There were already awakened ones in black combat uniforms, rushing towards the city wall one after another.

Coincidentally, there was a middle-aged man with a beard on his face traveling with him.

The middle-aged man saw Xu Youran and greeted him enthusiastically, "Young man is very powerful. Your name is Xu Youran, right? My name is Zhang Haiyang."

Xu Youran had some impression of this man. When they came in that day, it seemed that this bearded man had also rushed down the city wall to participate in their rescue operation.

He shook hands with Zhang Haiyang, "Brother Zhang has been here for a long time?"

Zhang Haiyang has a rough appearance and a bold personality. He smiled and said: "It's been almost a year. I am one of the few awakened people who has lived here for almost a year."

Xu Youran was a little surprised, "Awakened people have a high mortality rate?"

"It's been okay recently. If there hadn't been a beast wave, the safety of the awakened people would still be okay. After all, their personal abilities would be stronger. But once a beast wave occurs, no one can guarantee that they can survive to the next second."

Recalling the beast tide that night, Xu Youran also felt lingering fear.

If he hadn't been begging for death crazily that night, breaking through and mastering a new awakening technique before the battle, he probably wouldn't have ended well.

Climbing up the man-made rubble wall along the gentle slope, rows of warriors holding thermal weapons aimed at the bottom of the wall.

Every once in a while, there is an awakened person wearing a black camouflage combat uniform. Everyone saw Xu Youran from a distance and greeted him with a smile.

Among these awakened people, Xu Youran also saw Cai Bing and Cheng Lin whom he met yesterday, as well as many unfamiliar faces.

When there is no outbreak of beasts, most mutant beasts are relatively quiet, and only a few will attack the city wall.

Simple wisdom makes these mutated beasts very clear. If they rashly attack the city wall, they will be greeted by a torrent of steel like a torrential rain.

The person responsible for the defense of this section of the city wall was a platoon leader named Yang. He was a young man under thirty years old. He enthusiastically came over to introduce Xu Youran to each other.

Because of the large amount of military supplies shipped from Yanjing, fuel, ammunition, and supplies were greatly replenished, and the soldiers faced this protracted war with more confidence.

Platoon Leader Yang also introduced the latest weapons and equipment. It would be too tragic if a friendly fire occurs when a battle breaks out.

The virus broke out suddenly, but various animal mutations gradually became stronger.

In the early days of the virus outbreak, various government departments focused more on virus prevention and control.

It wasn't until a large number of mutant beasts began to attack humans crazily that everyone realized the seriousness of this problem.

Viruses will kill countless people, but there will always be survivors.

The attack of the mutant beasts is an indiscriminate genocidal disaster, a disaster with no survivors.

In a hurry, it is the Chinese military's best effort to protect millions of survivors.

There are not many weapons, ammunition, supplies, etc. that can be used in battle.

Tanks and armored vehicles are all weapons of war on land, but now no one can cross the ocean of mutant beasts and go deep into the mutant beast base camp to get close to the military base.

But even so, the Chinese soldiers used their blood and fearless sacrifice to prove that they deserve to be the world's strongest army.

Now that they have received sufficient weapon support and ammunition replenishment, the soldiers are particularly confident. They had been holding back their anger before and wanted to vent their anger to the mutant beasts.

The army's conventional thermal weapons are generally more lethal to mutated beasts below the bronze level.

When encountering bronze-level or silver-level mutant beasts, it is difficult for conventional thermal weapons to cause effective damage.

When hitting a bronze-level mutant beast, the pain is severe at most, and even the skin cannot be broken.

If a silver-level mutant beast like that night appeared, there would be huge casualties.

The main task of the awakeners is to target bronze-level mutant beasts. To deal with a large number of black iron-level mutant beasts, some group attack awakening skills can be used.

If you encounter a silver-level mutant beast, you can only risk human lives.

When there is no large-scale beast tide, the awakeners are still relatively relaxed.

Some gathered in groups of three or two to chat, and some sat quietly to rest.

There were also awakeners not far away who came to chat with Xu Youran. Everyone had a good impression of this young man who fought desperately.

Xu Youran also met a few new friends, including awakeners of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

However, it seems that he is the only mutant awakener in this area.

I don’t know when I can awaken more awakening skills to form a complete system of strengthening, assisting, defending, and attacking.

I heard from Professor Chen that there are not only three awakeners in Yanjing, but also four awakeners. They are so powerful that they don’t look like humans.

It takes incredible luck and courage to survive four times of infection.

He silently probed his consciousness into the sea of ​​consciousness, wanting to learn more about his virus system.

Magic awakening skills.

[Cold, bronze quality. Form a certain range of cold air in any place with water, reducing the speed within the range, with limited impact on objects beyond bronze level. (Upgradeable)]

Basic attributes.

[Character attributes: Bronze fighter. ]

[Allocated resources: Rabies virus +1, Rubella virus, Retrovirus, Silver skill +1. ]

Basic skills:

[Escape (not upgradeable). ]

What does this rabies virus +1 mean? I now have two copies of rabies virus?

Do I need to release the virus to attack the enemy?

But this virus comes from the enemy, giving the mutant beast that has been infected with rabies virus another copy of rabies virus?

What's the point of this?

Does this silver skill +1 mean that I can upgrade my awakening skill?

Xu Youran thought about it and thought that the most useful awakening skill for him at present should be ice armor.

This all-round, no-dead-angle protection can provide a better guarantee for survival.

He mobilized his spiritual sense and put it on the awakening skill of ice armor to try to improve it.

With a little spiritual sense, "ding" [Awakening skill ice armor upgraded, silver quality. ]

It is really used to upgrade awakening skills, Xu Youran is ecstatic.

It is great to upgrade awakening skills without being infected with viruses or enduring life and death crises!

He scanned it with spiritual sense again and found that other attributes have not changed. The words "silver skill +1" disappeared, and the awakening skill of ice armor was upgraded to silver quality.

[Ice armor, silver quality. Condense a set of ice armor in any place with water vapor, providing you with all-round protection, resisting silver-level physical attacks, and weak elemental resistance. (Upgradeable)]

Xu Youran observed carefully and found the subtle differences after the upgrade. In addition to the improvement of defense level, there are also changes in usage conditions.

Bronze-level ice armor is used in any place with water, while silver-level is used in any place with water vapor.

Water and water vapor are two completely different concepts.

Except for extremely dry desert areas, water vapor exists in most places on Earth.

That is to say, Xu Youran can condense ice armor almost anywhere, and no longer needs to deliberately approach water sources. This is a very good change.

Xu Youran asked Platoon Leader Yang and learned that every day in the barracks, soldiers on rotation will train.

If you want to learn fighting skills, you can participate in daytime training during your rotation, or ask special instructors for advice.

At the same time, in the detention room in the barracks.

Ding Xiang is undergoing strict scrutiny, and the military must find out the source of Ding Xiang's information.

In the courtyard of the municipal government, the soldiers of the guard company with live ammunition have boarded the troop carriers.

In the first few black official cars, several leaders of the municipal government were sitting upright.
