Doomsday Sacrifice

Chapter 184 Communication
The manual customer service of the system, which had been silent for a long time, was actually online.

The last time I was in the library of Tongli University, the system advanced to the fourth level, but at that time Li Xun found Aurora in the library, and was chased by more than 20 juvenile beasts, and finally fled to the top floor and found the original giant mushroom It was only later that he was able to escape, and he did not have time to communicate with the system.

When he solved the extreme beast and communicated with the system again, for some reason, the system's manual customer service has not been online until the system has been upgraded to the fifth level and finally responded again.

Li Xun has a lot of questions to ask.

"System, how much do you know about the original extreme beast? Let me introduce it."

"The original polar beast is a special kind in the polar beast race. It is a combination of animals and plants. It is both the lowest polar beast and the highest polar beast. It is both fragile and powerful. The main ability is that it can Converting other energies into extreme energy is very important for the extreme beast race."

Li Xun has seen many original extreme beasts, including a big mushroom, two fortune trees, an upside-down fortune tree in an underground supermarket, and a sunflower. Once confirmed, there are many things that can be confirmed, but there are also places that are confused.

"System, why do you say it is the lowest and the highest beast?"

"The original extreme beast itself cannot move, its body defense is weak, and it is easy to be hurt. From this point of view, it is the lowest extreme beast, and all extreme beasts are evolved from the original extreme beast, but at the same time it has It has a powerful consciousness far exceeding that of other extreme beasts, can control other creatures, and is more dangerous than other extreme beasts, so it can be said to be the highest extreme beast."

"It controls creatures through that white spike, right? I sacrificed that spike a few days ago."

"Yes, it controls creatures through control rods in the low stage, and can directly control it in the high stage."

"Well, the white spikes were originally called control rods. I have seen the primordial beasts use this to control zombies. There is another question. I have seen several people approach the primordial beasts. There are evolutionaries and ordinary people, and four of them are evolutionaries. They all turned into zombies, but an ordinary person not only did not become a zombie, but started to evolve, why?"

"..., Insufficient data, unable to judge." The system paused for a while before replying.

Li Xun was silent, he thought about this question for a long time, and always felt that something was not quite right.

If it is said to have suffered an extreme energy impact, it is said that the evolutionary who has already endured the impact should be more likely to resist the impact again, but the four evolutionaries he saw turned into zombies without exception, which seems a bit unreasonable.

And whether Yu Qingming's situation is an exception, or whether there are other reasons, it's hard to say at the moment.

He originally wanted to confirm it from the system, but he didn't expect this result, so he had to find another way to confirm it.

"System, I feel dizzy when I get close to the primordial beast, but it doesn't last long, what's going on?"

"The Primordial Extreme Beast is very dangerous and will have a certain adverse effect on the system. Please do not approach it."

Li Xun curled his lips. Although the system has to answer all questions, it obviously doesn't answer the question. However, being close to the original beast has an impact on the system. He feels that the impact may not be as simple as the manual customer service offline.

He immediately changed the question: "What energy can the original polar beast convert?"

"Electric energy, thermal energy, fusion energy, biological energy, etc., more than 80.00% of the energy can be converted."

"So it will grow into different forms according to the energy conversion needs?"

"Yes."

"Can you sacrifice the primordial beast?"

"can."

"Whether it is a low-level extreme beast or a high-level extreme beast when offering sacrifices."

"Divided according to the situation at the time of sacrifice."

"Since it's an extreme beast, it should be possible to control it with mind control, right?"

"..., theoretically yes."

Li Xun noticed that the system paused again, and with a slight movement in his heart, he changed a question that he had always wanted to ask, but it was basically impossible to get an answer: "System, where are you from?"

"Insufficient data to answer."

Sure enough.

"Can every egg laid by a polar beast grow into a primordial polar beast?"

"No, there is a certain probability, and it follows a certain rule, but the specific circumstances are unknown."

"Can the zombies regain their sanity after evolution?" Li Xun asked a very critical question. The performance of the giant zombies made him doubtful about the evolution of the zombies.

"No."

"But the giant zombie I sacrificed just now can grab the body of other zombies to attack, and its IQ is obviously higher than that of ordinary zombies."

"That's a sign of enhanced instinct, not an increase in IQ. The evolution of zombies will only make their instincts stronger and stronger, and the damage to their sanity is irreversible."

"As the polar beast evolves, its intelligence level will become higher and higher?"

"Yes."

"What kind of polar beast has evolved 49 times?"

"..."

"System? Are you still there?"

Li Xun's face darkened. The communication time this time was obviously shorter than the previous few times. He had a vague intuition that there seemed to be some unknown changes in the system.

In any case, the harvest this time was good, and it was a pleasant surprise to figure out some important issues.

Li Xun didn't bother to trouble other zombie groups anymore, he walked north along Zhongxin Road, and soon returned to the 4S shop.

In the exhibition hall, the reading lights were on in the two cars near the back. Daju was squinting and dozing on the hood of a black SUV. It was sent by Lao Fan to be on guard. It was a bit bored. Seeing Li Xun coming in, he yelled twice. Grumbled.

Hearing Daju's voice, Cheng Xi walked out with a flashlight in one hand and an energy gun in the other. Seeing that it was Li Xun who came back, he only called out to the boss and was speechless for a while.

Half an hour ago, Shen Yiqing just came back. At that time, her eyes were red and her clothes were covered with blood, which shocked them.

They already knew that the family members of both of them were not spared. Although almost everyone lost their relatives in the last days, when it happened to their own people, they felt more sympathy.

Li Xun nodded slightly and walked in.

Lao Fan stood at the door of a lighted office, took the round shield and hunting knife from Li Xun's hand, and said in a low voice, "My condolences, boss."

The office is very spacious, with two sets of brown leather sofas and two camping lights on the coffee table in the middle. The interior is fairly bright.

Shen Yiqing had already changed out of the camouflage combat uniform she was wearing, and sat silently on a chair by the sofa alone, Yu Qingming was not around.

Lao Fan said: "Old Yu is making food on the second floor, you should take a rest first, you will be fine soon."

Li Xun nodded, walked to Shen Yiqing's side and patted her on the shoulder, and sat down on the sofa next to him. He didn't feel tired, but felt very uncomfortable.

A few minutes later, Lao Yu came down with two trays. There were several large plates on them, which were full. The kitchen on the second floor used liquefied gas tanks, which was very convenient, but the food was limited. Fried fried.

However, he steamed a pot of rice, and he felt at ease with a bowl of hot rice to eat in the apocalypse.

The food was quickly placed on the coffee table, Li Xun glanced at the silent people, cheered up and said, "Come on, let's eat, let's discuss the next plan."

Several people sat around the coffee table, talking while eating.

"The situation in Zhoucheng is quite special. No polar beasts were found. It should be related to giant zombies. I just tested their strength. They are very powerful, similar to polar beasts, and have high defense. Although not as good as the scale armor on polar beasts Not too much difference, and can resist chain lightning, much faster than ordinary zombies, the most important point is that they can use tools, and they can also suppress ordinary zombies, as for whether they can be commanded, please confirm."

Li Xun gave a detailed introduction to the situation of the giant zombies.

Several people were taken aback when they heard this, they didn't expect the giant zombie to have such strength, it was comparable to extreme beasts in several respects.

Lao Fan's expression changed even more: "Boss, haven't they regained their sanity?"

Li Xun shook his head: "No, I fought against two giant zombies in the train station square, and one of them grabbed two ordinary zombies and used them as weapons to attack. It's more like an instinct. It should be that after evolution, they know better. Use your body to your advantage."

Lao Fan breathed a sigh of relief: "Understood, it seems that they can suppress ordinary zombies, which is probably caused by the level difference."

"Well, so I speculate that high-level zombies should be able to command ordinary zombies to a certain extent, but they certainly cannot reach the level of extreme beasts."

"Just like ants, they have distinct levels," Cheng Xi said.

"Correct."

"In this case, if there are enough giant zombies and ordinary zombies, they can really deal with extreme beasts. Compared with extreme beasts, they are less afraid of death. Ants kill elephants more often." Lao Fan remembered the Polytechnic University he saw in the afternoon A spectacular scene where tens of thousands of zombies huddled together.

"That's right, so tomorrow morning I plan to walk around the city to see if there are any signs of extreme beasts, find a chance to try a sniper rifle, and find a group of zombies to contact, and then we will continue north to the capital."

"it is good."

Lao Fan and the others had no objections.

After eating, everyone had a rest. Li Xun found some tools from the maintenance workshop at the back, took a few spiny fins from the armored vehicle, and stayed in the workshop to modify sniper bullets.

He polished off the warhead part of the bullet, and covered it with a layer of metal armor to increase its power. It is not too difficult to make, but modifying a bullet consumes about a hundred units of genetic energy, which is acceptable.

After working hard for more than half an hour, a total of ten bullets were modified, which was just enough for one magazine. Let's try it out tomorrow.

After that, Li looked for a place to run the genetic evolution method to absorb extreme energy.

The others didn't feel sleepy either. Lao Fan and Cheng Xi were busy perfecting the polar beast illustrated book, and Shen Yiqing was practicing fighting skills in the parking lot behind.

Yu Qingming started to deal with the round shield. He used the special needle from the manticore to make two holes in the round shield and made a handle for easy handling.

We kept busy until almost midnight before everyone fell asleep one after another.

Nothing happened overnight, the next morning, five people and one cat left the 4S shop facing the rising sun and headed for the city.
