deformation space

City N is not a big city. According to its development, it should belong to the third tier.Therefore, the traffic in the city is only relatively developed, and the area is not too large.However, there are also advantages. Not only are all necessary factories and power plants available, but there are also many inner lakes in the city. The edge is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the grain production is also very sufficient.Arguably one of the best places to build a survival base.

In order to allow more people to live, many old houses in the city were demolished, turning their original places into cultivated land.Most of the remaining ones are very tall buildings with elevators-not to mention the small footprint, one building can solve the living problem of many people.And even if the zombies came, it was generally difficult to harm the residents living in the upper floors.

The deformed car still needs to be inspected, and it cannot be driven into the city for the time being.The Chu Yuan family had no choice but to ignore that and followed Shen Hao to the city.As they walked, they looked at the scene in the city and secretly admired it in their hearts.

Along the way, you can see a lot of busy men and women, or helping to turn the soil in the cultivated land that is not yet fully formed, or trotting back and forth with carts and tea and meals.A busy scene.

In the apocalypse and in the environment where zombies are attacking, they can still see such a vigorous scene. Even Chu Yuan and Lin Cong feel a little admiration for the current administrator of N City—well, there are two brushes.

Cross a "field" and enter a main street.

This street is very lively, and it seems to be the same as before the doomsday, but if you look closely, you can find the difference in price.

Chu Yuan's eyesight has gotten better since he cultivated, and he can easily see the transaction in a noodle restaurant 50 meters away, which is diagonally facing him.

A tall man walked into the store, asked for a bowl of beef noodles, then took out a shiny white thing from his pocket, and handed it over.The owner of the store took it over and weighed it, picked up the small scale next to it, weighed it, and scooped about ten slices of beef into the sea bowl full of noodles, as well as a spoonful of spicy red soup. .

The man held the noodles, Shi Shiran sat down at the edge of a table, and began to devour them.

At this moment, Chu Yuan turned his eyes back, and then seemed to casually look around. Sure enough, in every shop that was trading, what was exchanged was that kind of white crystal.

Shen Hao also noticed Chu Yuan's gaze at this time, was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Are you wondering what that thing is?"

Chu Yuan nodded and smiled: "Yes, can Captain Shen help me out?"

Shen Hao raised the corner of his mouth: "It's not really a solution." Then he said, "That's the crystal nucleus." His expression carried a strange meaning, "It was dug out from the zombie's brain."

Chu Yuan was taken aback.Before beating zombies, he used the Fire and Thunder Talisman given by Lin Cong to throw them over, blowing up the zombie's head at once. How did he know that there was such a thing in the brain?

When Shen Hao saw it, he understood that he didn't know what was going on at all, so with the attitude of friendship - he already regarded Chu Yuan as half of the army, and said: "The virus that turns people into zombies is very strange. , it seems to directly turn people into another dead 'creature'. It is the crystal nucleus that supports the walking of zombies, which was accidentally discovered by some supernatural beings when they were beating zombies."

Chu Yuan asked again: "Are they useful?" Otherwise, why abandon the currency and use it for exchange?

Shen Hao paused.This is the point.

But after thinking about it, this is not a great intelligence.So I simply explained it in detail: "Since the outbreak of the virus, due to too many injection points, the world has become a purgatory in just a few days. Zombies are raging everywhere, and their strength is much stronger than ordinary humans. Until the aliens The zombies can be easily dealt with only when someone capable appears. Then, we found white crystals in the heads of the zombies, which were named 'crystal nuclei' by the researchers."

"The crystal nucleus is the core of the zombie. After analyzing it with sophisticated instruments, the researchers discovered that it contains a very powerful energy. This energy cannot be used directly. At first, I didn't know how to open its gap. Later, there was a As the abilities of the supernatural beings evolved, we realized that the abilities of the supernatural beings are not static."

"Before this supernatural person evolved, he didn't have any abnormal behavior. The only thing special was that he had a good relationship with a researcher, so he stayed with him to protect him and conduct research on zombies. Of course, he also came into contact with this kind of crystal for a long time. nuclear."

"Finally, the researcher mentioned a hypothesis that the evolution of supernatural beings may be related to crystal nuclei."

Hearing this, Chu Yuan raised his eyebrows.

If crystal nuclei can help supernatural beings evolve, they should try their best to buy them, instead of letting them be officially recognized as currency circulation.

Shen Hao knew what Chu Yuan was thinking, and continued to say the following.

"In the end, the country decided to conduct an experiment to try to let the supernatural beings try to see if they can directly absorb the energy in the crystal nucleus." He smiled slightly, "You can come here smoothly, and you have seen how the current world is going. Broken. If the energy in the crystal nucleus can really be used, it will be of great help to the improvement of the survival rate of human beings. Even... the researchers have another ambition, that is, to create a device that can inspire ordinary people by studying the crystal nucleus. A potion with supernatural powers. In this way, maybe this zombie disaster will pass soon."

Chu Yuan nodded lightly. If he hadn't embarked on the road of cultivation with Lin Cong long ago and had a space in his hands, it would have been really difficult for him to survive.In the last days, even if he used to be the person in charge of a company, he wouldn't receive much preferential treatment.

Shen Hao sighed: "There are really a few courageous and ambitious supernatural users who decided to try. Because if they succeed in their attempt, the country will allow each of them to be allocated a thousand crystal nuclei to enhance their strength, so that even if they are also superhuman Those who can, they will also be much better than others.”

"However..." A look of regret appeared on his face, "It all failed."

"If the person with the ability saves the crystal nucleus in the palm of his hand before deciding to activate the ability, he can indeed absorb the energy in it. But what people never expected is that the energy in the crystal nucleus is so violent!"

"Perhaps the reason why zombies become bloodthirsty and like to bite people is also related to the crystal nucleus. The supernatural person who absorbs the energy will burst into blood and die within 3 minutes. At the same time, during these 3 minutes, the supernatural person will also become Losing consciousness, hurting and biting people everywhere... It was as if they had also turned into zombies. Even people who were injured by supernatural beings during this period of time would be hit as quickly as if they were injured by zombies. Viruses, turned into zombies."

Having said that, Shen Hao was already a little bit embarrassed.

In fact, although most of the supernatural beings who were tested were powerful ambitious or lucky speculators, there were also a small number of soldiers who really wanted to contribute to the country.

They also failed to hold on, but at least, at the first moment they wanted to bite, they shot at each other, and finally died with dignity.

However, it is still a pity.

"Later, the researcher picked up the remaining crystal that had been evacuated of energy—it turned into a transparent color, like a glass bead. After the research, without the interference of energy, the country finally discovered that the inside of the crystal nucleus contains more than just Energy, and a lot of viruses. It's just a small virus aggregate!"

Shen Hao shook his head: "There is no way, the researcher continues to study, but every supernatural person is an object worthy of protection, and after that, there are very few supernatural persons to do experiments. And the crystal nucleus has become a symbol of power." He glanced at both sides, and continued, "This street looks the same as it was before the end, but it has actually undergone strict transformation."

"At the very front of this street is the supernatural building, with a total of 72 floors, where all supernatural beings live." Shen Hao smiled, "And this street is actually a street dedicated to supernatural beings. This The owner of the street is the country, and the people on both sides are supernatural beings belonging to the country. The purpose of doing business here is to exchange materials for the crystal nuclei in the hands of supernatural beings. Even if there is no progress at present, the country still hopes to be able to It is possible to collect more crystal nuclei for emergencies. Because ordinary people rarely hunt crystal nuclei, it seems that crystal nuclei have become a kind of exchange currency that is mostly only among supernatural beings. "

Well, after finishing the business, Shen Hao made another joke: "Aside from other things, it is very difficult to find all the materials on this street outside, and as long as you have enough crystal nuclei , basically you can exchange for any material you want - even if it is not enough, there will be a special plane to carry it to the large base established in the first-tier cities. You are new here, if you really like something and have no crystal core, you can actually do it Ask me to borrow money."

Chu Yuan bent his lips and smiled, nodded and said: "If I really encounter difficulties, I will not be polite to Captain Shen."

That's the end of the topic, and the superhuman building is just around the corner.
