Chapter 2 The freezing of liquid nitrogen and the deformation of polyethylene
"Do you really think I won't kill you, Xiao Chen!" I roared wildly, rushed forward, grabbed Xiao Chen's collar, and even lifted him up from the ground and over my head.
"Yes, you won't. I'm sure." Facing my anger, Xiao Chen's face was still very calm. "No matter whether you want to save your relatives or save people from the world, you can't achieve it if you kill me. So, you will never kill me."
I stared at Xiao Chen, looking at his sharp chin, his gloomy look, his thick dark circles and extremely calm eyes. Every point on Xiao Chen made me hate. Every word he said could arouse my murderous intention, but Xiao Chen said too much... Yes, I can't kill him at all. If I kill him, then my father, Jiang Xueqing, Tong Xinyi, Teacher Cao, and even Han Shaofeng and Brother Tong will die. Although the latter two are not even friends for me, if they are killed like this, I know that I will definitely feel sorry and suffer from conscience.
Xiao Chen was so terrible. He had completely plotted against me. Although I was extremely powerful and had countless tricks, I could not escape his calculations, nor could I escape his palms... He had completely seen through my character and me, but I could not resist.
"Ahhhhhh!! Xiao—Chen!!!"
I howled in pain and threw Xiao Chen heavily towards the wall. Xiao Chen's back hit the wall. He made a painful sound. His thin body slid weakly from the wall. He covered his shoulders on the ground for a while before he got up, and then began to cough violently, with a trace of blood oozing from his nostrils and corners of his mouth.
"Okay, what should be vented is finished. Next we can talk about cooperation, Chen Dongqing?" Xiao Chen wiped the blood stains from the corner of his mouth and looked at me with his gloomy and hated eyes.
"Cooperate? Are you dreaming? Who would cooperate with a crazy man like you?" I sneered, and then pressed Xiao Chen hard on the wall. With my current strength, Xiao Chen had no chance to resist in front of me. Xiao Chen knew that he could not resist me, so he just watched my every move quietly and stopped talking. I quickly found a rope and tied Xiao Chen up and placed it in the corner of the laboratory.
"Tell me, where are my father and the others?" I looked down at Xiao Chen, who was bound by me, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Otherwise, I will break one of your fingers! Don't think I can't do it!"
Xiao Chen looked at me quietly, but a gloomy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Tell you, can you rescue it?"
"What does it mean?!" I asked in a rough voice.
Xiao Chen sat cross-legged and sneered:
"Tell you, just last night, Jiang Xueqing, your father, Cao Hongli, Tong Xinyi, Han Shaofeng and the person you call Brother Tong were sent to six different countries in Australia, Brazil, the United States, India and South Africa. If you want to save them, then find five clones and each grows wings and flies across the three oceans."
"What!!" I angrily grabbed Xiao Chen's collar and picked him up, "You sent my dad... and others abroad? Stop lying to me! How did you do it? How did you pass the identity check?"
"Do you know? It's too easy to control airlines with zombie viruses." Xiao Chen licked his tongue and said, "What do you think I created two hundred zombies to surround the government before? It's just to infiltrate the zombie virus into the government and the police station..."
I roared again and threw Xiao Chen to the ground hard. I punched Xiao Chen in the face, and half of Xiao Chen's face was swollen by me. If I hadn't stopped my strength in time at the last moment, I would have almost blown Xiao Chen's head on the spot. I could not control my current strength.
"Let my dad go, now! Have you heard it?" I said viciously.
"Then you obey my orders." Xiao Chen looked at me quietly and said.
"Don't even think about it!"
"Haha, you're so stubborn. Then, I'd better show up with you." Xiao Chen said calmly. "Chen Dongqing, the progress bar shown in the book "Zombie World" is indeed related to the number of people who have become zombies. If you want to turn the progress bar in the book into one hundred percent, you need to turn at least one billion people into zombies. But have you ever thought that if I first turn one billion people into zombies and then cancel it after completing the strategy?"
When I heard Xiao Chen's words, I was stunned and thought of a possibility:
"What you mean is that as long as you turn everyone into zombies first and then dismiss them, you can still complete the task?"
Xiao Chen looked at me with a calm face and said:
"That's what it means."
I narrowed my eyes and looked at Xiao Chen coldly and said:
"I won't believe you. If you believe someone like you, I might as well believe a dog. You must want me to work with you to turn everyone into zombies, and then tell me that I can't change back, right? Even if you can turn others into zombies, you can control others at will. Will you stop doing such a good thing? What's more, what if you turn people into zombies first and then back, and you can't complete the strategy?"
"It can only depend on whether you believe it or not." Xiao Chen smiled, "This is a bet, either, destroy it with the world, or believe me. Which one do you choose? Chen Dongqing, I can only tell you that if the earth is destroyed, it will definitely not be destroyed in my hands, but in your hands. No matter how I use any means, I will continue the earth's civilization, but you can't do it."
Xiao Chen's words made me feel discouraged. I squeezed my fists and clattered. I really wanted to make a hole in this man's face, but I couldn't do it. Although I was not very smart, I knew that this man was smarter than me. I was the captain of this team. However, I couldn't even protect my own teammates. I really couldn't guide this world, nor could I save the whole world...
I bit my teeth tightly, and the muscles in my jaw were too developed, so I almost bit my teeth into pieces.
"Three days..." I almost squeezed out my voice from my teeth, "I only worked with you for three days. During these three days, I will stare at you tightly. If your plan goes against my bottom line, I will break with you immediately, and, no matter what, I will stop you."
After hearing my words, Xiao Chen finally smiled naturally:
"Ten thousand Virgins are not as good as a smart man. Only those who dare to bleed can stop bleeding. The sows who only know how to avoid danger will be slaughtered sooner or later."
"Don't think I'll let you go." I glared at Xiao Chen tightly, pulling this dangerous person like a cow, and pulling him out of the laboratory.
When I walked out of the laboratory and walked through the aisle to the dilapidated apartment where Xiao Chen was hiding, I was shocked because I saw that the outside had become a mess.
Outside the apartment is an abandoned factory open space, and on the open space, there are a large number of people with pale skin, expressionless faces, and empty eyes wandering around. Without looking, I also know that these people are those who have become zombies under Xiao Chen's control. On a rough look, there are at least one hundred.
The most terrifying zombies made me extremely frightened. I saw a white giant about twenty meters long lying in the corner of the square. The giant was swollen, naked, hairless, and his eyes looked like two deep wells. From the appearance, it was hard for me to see whether this giant was a man or a woman, because he did not have some symbolic organs of men and women. His whole body was snow-white, like an enlarged puppet doll.
Is this giant also a zombie? Seeing this giant, I felt my breathing stagnant, but apart from that, there were many other surprises.
In addition to this huge zombie that is nearly twenty meters tall, there are three zombies that are quite small, but they are also five or six meters tall. They are sitting on the ground dull and clumsy, with expressionless faces, and their wide, thick and deformed ugly faces facing me, making me creepy.
In addition to these giant zombies, I also saw a few strange creatures that didn't know if they were zombies. There were about a dozen of these creatures. Some of them were wolfdogs with wings, and their hair was densely raised like hedgehogs, while others became extremely huge bats, with sharp teeth extending out of their mouths and almost hanging to the ground, and their body was even more comparable to children. Some were four-dimensional, with both the nose of an elephant and the neck of a giraffe, and the body like a centipede and the hook tail like a scorpion. I can no longer describe what kind of creature it is...
In addition, there are also some human-shaped zombies, with seven people tied to the corner of the square. The strange thing is that they either have broken wings like moths on their backs, long tentacles like octopus tentacles, or centipede-like tails. These half-human and half-beast forms are obviously not completely controlled, because their faces are still filled with fear that only ordinary people have.
The last of the remaining people were the slightly white-skinned humans wandering in the square. Some of them had empty eyes, while others were sober, which looked similar to ordinary humans. But what was strange was that the muscles on the surface of their bodies would actually squirm and deform. I clearly saw that several people's arms had squirmed a few times and turned into soft bodies like noses, and even eyes grew on their palms or arms. Some people's heads could squirm, twist, or even crack in the middle like plasticine...
"Xiao Chen, these... are all zombies you made?!" I looked at Xiao Chen beside me in shock and angrily and asked.
Xiao Chen looked at me calmly and said:
"Yes, they are all my experimental products. At present, it seems that zombies are divided into five types, namely giant zombies, ghoul zombies, parasitic zombies, alien beast zombies and subhuman zombies. The zombies type mainly depend on the intelligence of the infected person before being infected by the zombie virus. After the wild animals with the lowest intelligence are infected, they are alien beast zombies. These zombies retain the instincts of animals, the strongest attacks, but the easiest to manipulate. The second intelligence is parasitic beast zombies. The reason for these zombies is that the self-consciousness of those infected by the zombie virus is weak, the nervous system is low, and it is easy to be completely controlled by the zombie virus, and the brain is replaced by the zombie virus to seize memories. Although there are past memories,
It is a new personality with control of the body but completely dominated by zombie viruses. Some parasitic zombies also have two main consciousnesses on them. For example, the zombie virus only infected the arms but failed to infect the head. At this time, it will produce a rare situation where both the arms and brain are intelligent and have personality. Again, there are subhuman zombies. These zombies look exactly the same as ordinary people, and they do not have special abilities or special organs. The reason they produce is that the inside of the brain is eroded by zombie viruses, but the number of zombie viruses is too small to produce other organs or deform the mind. The intelligence of subhuman zombies is slightly higher than that of parasitic zombies and is closest to ordinary humans. Generally speaking, there is basically no difference between subhuman zombies and ordinary humans.
"Ghost-type zombies have the highest intelligence because they are humans with high intelligence and strong self-consciousness. They are due to their high intelligence. The zombie viruses seize the product of the human brain failure. Because of their high intelligence and complete nervous system, zombie viruses not only fail to seize their subjective consciousness, but are dominated by their original consciousness. Like you, they can even control the zombie viruses in their bodies with their own will and change some biological functional organs for their own purposes. Some of these organs can be used for attack, some can be used for defense, and even for flight. Their materials are similar to polyethylene from ultra-high molecules. However, in order to maintain self-consciousness and human form, ghoul-type zombies must eat human flesh and obtain the gene map in the human genes to maintain their own human structure and self-consciousness. Otherwise, they will continue to be downgraded to subhuman zombies or even parasitic zombies.
"The last giant zombies are a special case. They are the zombie virus that occupied the infected person and did not stop reproduction in time. Instead, they continued to overpropagate, resulting in a huge leather case of thick human form wrapped around the infected person. The intelligence of giant zombies is random, high or low, all depends on the willpower and intelligence value of the infected person."
Xiao Chen explained the human beings who had been transformed unrecognizable by him in front of him in a tone like facing a teenage mouse doing an experiment. Every word seemed to have an iron nail on my heart.
"You did this?" My voice trembled, "What do you think of human life as a tool? Are you a test product? They are living people! And, what did you say just now, ghoul-type zombies can still eat people? The parasitic zombies are swallowed by zombie viruses? They have all become like this. Can they still recover? What you said before can remove zombie viruses, right?"
"If I cannot restore my original state, I need to tell you the human-eating characteristics of ghoul-type zombies and parasitic zombies, so that you can feel distrustful in me?" Xiao Chen glanced at me lightly and said lightly.
I was slightly stunned when I heard Xiao Chen's words, but soon I became vigilant again. I said to Xiao Chen calmly:
"So, let's show it for me now, and turn all the zombies here back into their original state. Then I believe what you said can remove the zombie virus."
Xiao Chen looked at me sideways, his eyes calmly, but he didn't say anything.
I immediately sneered:
"Sure enough, what you said just now is lying to me, right? You said you memorized all my grandfather's "Travel Records" and knew the way to remove the zombie virus recorded by my grandfather. So, do it for me? Haha."
"Yes." Xiao Chen said calmly, "It only needs to be lifted out of three." As he said, Xiao Chen slowly stepped forward and walked to a parasitic zombie. According to Xiao Chen's previous statement, the parasitic zombie is a zombie whose brain was infected with the zombie virus and robbed the subjective consciousness. My idea is that since there is no self-consciousness, it cannot be considered an individual at all. It should be completely impossible to recover. However, when Xiao Chen walked to the parasitic zombie, the zombie's twisted and irregular deformed body began to gradually recover from human form. This zombie, which was originally dull, gradually recovered from its fair skin, and its empty eyes became more and more dazzling.
"I...where am I? Wow... Monster! Monster!" In less than twenty seconds, the short-haired man in a white T-shirt and blue jeans seemed to have become an ordinary person. He regained his consciousness. After seeing the zombies surrounding him, he suddenly became frightened to the ground, and was so scared that he was so scared that he pissed in his nose. I felt a strong smell of urine floating in my nose. Obviously, this man was so scared that he pissed his pants. It seemed that it didn't seem to be performed.
Xiao Chen looked at me calmly and said, "The essence of a zombie virus is a mathematical life body, that is, a data body. According to information cosmology, the essence of the universe is also an information. The so-called hydrogen, helium, carbon, oxygen and other elements are just labeling the basic information units of different spins and charges. The data body of a zombie virus can quickly build any organic small molecule from the smallest unit of space, and then combine it into a life construction such as huge molecules, genes, proteins, DNA, etc., so that any form of chromosome can be reconstructed from the structural basis, and then step by step
From cells to tissues and functional organs to redesign, any damaged human structure can be replicated and reproduced, including the human brain. Although the human brain is extremely complex, it is just an organic molecular aggregate arranged and distributed according to a certain structure. Even if the brain is eaten by a zombie virus, as long as the zombie virus completely reconstructs a brain with a similarity of 100% from the microscopic level according to the brain knot before it was eaten, it can have exactly the same memory, personality and behavior patterns. In a sense, it can reborn that person."
Xiao Chen was very sensible, but I was confused when I heard it. I just knew that even if the zombie virus could destroy the human brain, it could still be rebuilt and resurrected the person who had been destroyed. This made me feel relieved.
"But, a completely redesigned brain...even if the memory and personality are exactly the same, is it still the original brain and the original soul?"
Xiao Chen looked at me with contempt and said:
"The cell renewal cycle of human skin is about twenty-eight days, bone cell renewal is seven to ten years, lymphocyte renewal is about three days, liver cell renewal is about one year, immune cell renewal is about ninety days, red blood cells can be renewed every four months, small intestinal villus cells lifespan is only two to three days, lung cells are lifespan is two to three weeks, taste bud cells are renewed every ten days. The lifespan of male sperm cells is only about three days, and most of the body composition of a person will be renewed every seven years.
Replacement, and the essence of memory storage is the structural changes of the medial temporal lobe composed of the dentate gyrus, the body, the parahippocampal gyrus, the amygdala, etc. The memory forgetting speed of the human brain is one bit per second. Even if you are now, you are almost not the same person as you ten years ago, but you still maintain your self-awareness and maintain a coherent memory. The similarity of the brain structure that zombie virus can recover is infinitely close to 100%, and the difference is lower than the change rate caused by normal cell renewal between you in this second and you in the previous second."
After all, Xiao Chen is still engaged in biology and chemistry research. I don’t know if what he said is true. At least it sounds like that. I finally breathed a sigh of relief, couldn’t help but smile, and said to Xiao Chen:
"Since that's the case, why didn't you tell me earlier? If you told me earlier, I wouldn't have been so disgusted with you."
Xiao Chen said calmly:
"The number of times the zombie virus is relieved. Once an infected person has eliminated the infection of the zombie virus and his body returns to its original state, he will develop immunity. This immunity is different from the immunity produced by the antibodies produced by the virus as you usually know. The reason for this immunity is that the human cell composition of the infected person who restores normal structure has been replaced by an organ composed of data bodies. The composition may have identification codes only if the data body is found. The zombie virus will not kill each other and swallow the same kind, so it cannot undergo a second or third infection. Therefore, if you remove a zombie, it means that there will be less people who can be infected in the future. It is uneconomical to remove the infected person's infection before squeezing the last drop of value."
Then, in order to prove that his words were correct, Xiao Chen successively eliminated two infected people, one of which was a sub-human zombie and the other was a ghoul zombie. These infected people who had recovered from their original state were either surprised or frightened, curled up in the corner of the square in surprise or fear. Although they had recovered from their original state, they seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
Looking at these zombies that seemed to have returned to their original state, my emotions finally stabilized. Although it was not that I completely forgave Xiao Chen, at least my hatred for him was no longer so deep.
"So, what are your plans next? Tell me straight." I said straight.
Xiao Chen rubbed the cheekbones that I had beaten up before and said:
"The plan is very simple. Due to the spread of zombie virus, the health departments and military of various governments will probably start to adopt corresponding response strategies soon. I can tell you two weaknesses of zombie virus: First, zombie virus cannot be transmitted through isolation suits or walls. Its transmission method is physical contact or air flow. The former spreads faster than the latter and the infection speed is very fast. It is equivalent to using a firefighter's water spray gun to fill a bucket. It does not take more than ten seconds to completely infect a person, and the incubation period is also very long. If I want, I can prevent the zombie virus from attacking at least one month. Second, I don't have a chemical weapon that can deal with zombie virus for the time being.
I don’t know about ultrasonic waves and high voltage currents, but high temperatures above 1,000 degrees and low temperatures above 240 degrees below zero, such as watering with liquid nitrogen, can kill zombie viruses, or at least make zombie viruses inactive. I believe that people from various governments will soon discover these weaknesses of zombie viruses, and investigate the source of infection through the order of infection of zombie viruses, thereby taking isolation measures. International flights will be forced to be suspended or forced to be inspected. After the artificial rainfall plan is successful, the military will definitely increase its precautions and try its best to prevent such things from happening again. I expect that in the next week, several major provinces in Jiangnan will become quarantine areas.
If this continues, the plan to infect one billion people within one month will inevitably be greatly hindered, so I plan to…”
After a pause, Xiao Chen continued:
Chapter completed!
