This wafer glows with colorful light in the sunlight, but it shows a slight cyan color when placed in the shadow.From the color alone, it looks a bit like something of the same origin as zombies.

However, isn't this kind of thing that comes from the skull of a zombie the same origin as a zombie?

Just by looking at it, I can't figure out what is the use of this thing, so Zhuang Jiu wrote down the words "cyan chip, function: to be added." on the paper.

Tang Panpan's subdued exclamation suddenly came from his ears, Zhuang Jiu looked up subconsciously, just in time to see the two fingers that the zombie inserted into his brain were slowly pulling out/out, and the strange black soil-like substance followed.fell down.

Although there was no bloody scene, the two people outside the screen were still frowning as they watched this scene.

Tang Panpan didn't expect them to suddenly behave so violently and disgustingly. He couldn't hold it back for a while, and rushed out of the game room with a pale face. Then, Zhuang Jiu heard the sound of closing the door from the bathroom.

Although she can withstand the frontal critical attack of the zombies, it is still difficult for her to accept disgusting things as well as Zhuang Jiu.

Zhuang Jiu withdrew his gaze from the door, continued to look at the screen in front of him, and observed their movements.

The zombies in the picture seem to have crashed, and at this moment they are suddenly stuck on the shore, motionless.

This is because they are too far away, otherwise Zhuang Jiu's curiosity would probably go up to them directly to see what effect the chip inserted into their brains will have on their brains.

She suddenly remembered that the brain is one of the most important organs of human beings.In addition to providing normal human thinking, language, reading and writing and other functions, the hippocampus can also store memories.

Plus this chip appears in the skulls of dead zombies.

A terrible conjecture gradually formed in Zhuang Jiu's mind. She paused with her fingers, crossed out the three words to be added, and then wrote it down.

Function: store memory (tentative).

Whether this chip is specifically used by the zombies to store their memories can only be judged by the actions of the zombies, otherwise this is just a temporary unreasonable conjecture of hers.

In the weather of nearly September, the zombies stood silently on the shore, the water dripping down on their bodies, as if it could make Zhuang Jiu outside the screen feel the bone-chilling coldness, as if her whole body was also soaked..

She was aroused by the coldness, and a layer of white sweat broke out on her back. She turned her head to look sideways, and her back was facing the only small grid with ice ore in the game room.

Zhuang Jiu thought for a while, stood up and put the ice ore in the corner of the room farthest from her.

Sure enough, the chill disappeared instantly.

The picture is still going on, but in the corner of the Jiugongge, there is another perspective staring from afar.

The picture on the screen was enlarged again and again, revealing a more high-definition zombie picture.

Tang Panpan finally came back.There were still some drops of water on her face that hadn't been wiped clean, and there was still a trace of coldness on her body, probably because she used water in the bathroom to cool down her conditioned vomiting.

Werther's voice sounded in the game room: "Sister, you two can wear the special glasses next to me, which can connect with my line of sight, and maybe you can see more details."

Zhuang Jiu glanced around the game room, and sure enough, on the floor beside her, there were two sunglasses-like glasses with metal rims.

The lens is pure black and looks very ordinary.

This pair of glasses should be a new experimental product created by Werther, and it was the first time seeing Zhuang Jiu. Tang Panpan looked at her blankly: "Zhuang Zhuang, what does Werther mean?"

Zhuang Jiu couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he could only give one to Tang Panpan: "Let's have a look first."

As soon as the black glasses were put on, a black sponge-like thing protruded from all sides of the frame, covering the eye sockets tightly, and then the blackness in front of the eyes began to disappear, and the brightness gradually increased. When the vision returned to normal, Zhuang JiuIn front of him is a familiar turquoise lake.

She turned her head around, and the mountains and forests were also reflected in her eyes.She lowered her head again and saw Werther's body.

Zhuang Jiu immediately understood that the glasses connected Werther's perspective.Combined with what he said before, it is easy to understand.

The place where Werther is standing now is where Zhuang Jiu and the others first saw the zombie, on the other side of the lake about a few kilometers away from the zombie.Even if the zombies have good eyesight at this distance, they can't see Werther's figure, but Werther can see their actions at a glance by zooming in.

"Tang Panpan, are you still there?" Because she couldn't see the scene in the game room with her glasses, she could only identify Tang Panpan's position through her voice.

As soon as she heard Zhuang Jiu's voice, Tang Panpan immediately walked to her side on her knees on the ground, with some surprise in her eyes: "Zhuang Zhuang, I am here. It's amazing! It looks like VR glasses, but it seems to be more immersive than VR.its environment?"

Zhuang Jiu nodded: "First observe the movement of those zombies."

Because it is through Werther's perspective, which is clearer than that of Jiugongge, Zhuang Jiu and Tang Panpan can clearly see that after the zombies have been completely still for 3 minutes and 19 seconds, they suddenly reappeared.

It's like an old computer freezes after receiving overloaded information, and now the reception is complete, or the computer restarts.

This is a signal.

The next second, one of the zombies turned around and picked up a sharp stone on the ground, walked straight towards the nearby mountain wall, and carved a few strange symbols on it.

Then the remaining zombies followed behind the leading zombie, turned and left the mountain wall.

A small box appeared in the lower right corner of the line of sight, and the picture inside was the current movement of the zombies.

Werther didn't follow up first, but came to the edge of the mountain wall at an extremely fast speed. The blue mesh grid was spread out, and the things carved by the zombies were scanned, analyzed and compared.

The things carved on the mountain wall are chaotic. From a human point of view, one might think it is a masterpiece of children's graffiti, but everyone who saw these things clearly knew that they might have been created in this way.communicating.

The intelligence that the zombies now possess is probably even more powerful than Zhuang Jiu and the others imagined.

"Sister, do you need to destroy these texts?" Werther's voice sounded in the game room.

Zhuang Jiu lowered his head and thought for a moment: "No, let's keep these things for now. Let's see what happens after we finish analyzing, or another batch of zombies appear."

"Good sister."

After he finished speaking, he turned around, and said before his eyes caught the piece of meat, "Sister, I'll switch to a perspective where you can see zombies."

The picture in front of me disappeared and was replaced by a picture of a fixed camera position.

When Zhuang Jiu saw him turn around, he guessed what Werther wanted to do, but he was afraid that Tang Panpan would not be able to accept it for a while, so he held back and didn't say anything, just continued to look at the zombie.

Now there are only five zombies who have landed and obtained the cyan chip, but there are more than 10 zombies who died before.Zhuang Jiu knew that Werther was probably looking through the other skulls to see if there were any missing chips.

She looked at the picture in front of her.

The five zombies seemed to have a clear purpose. After turning around the mountain wall, they stretched out their noses at the place where Zhuang Jiu and their chariots stopped at the beginning, sniffed vigorously, and then plunged into the forest.However, it didn't take long for Zhuangjiu's frown to become deeper and deeper.

The route they are advancing now, how does it look more and more familiar to her?

Zhuang Jiu's memory is not bad, but the current camera position is not shooting from the perspective of zombies, but from a high place, so she didn't dare to judge rashly, so she shouted: "Werther, call me for three daysCompare the travel route of the former watermelon chariot with the travel route of these zombies."

When Zhuang Jiu goes out, he usually takes his mobile phone with him. Not only can he contact Werther at any time, but it is also a small recorder.

Werther responded, and Zhuang Jiu took off his glasses.

The sound of rushing water came faintly from the sound system in the game room. Zhuang Jiu had no time to think about what Werther was doing at the moment, so he quickly opened another star network and saw the two routes sent by Werther.

Her hands shook slightly, her heart sank, and she slowly put the two maps together.

The route that the zombies are taking now is actually exactly the same as the route of the watermelon chariot.

Tang Panpan didn't know that Zhuang Jiu had taken off her eyes, and she didn't know what she was thinking when she was faced with two routes that were almost identical in the previous stage. She just felt that they were a little strange in front of her eyes.

It didn't look like he was running, but rather like he was being manipulated by something.

No, they are more like... they run forward after being observed by something through their eyes, so they occasionally stop, as if they are observing the surrounding situation.

But Tang Panpan has never been able to think about deeper things, and if she can know things, then Zhuang Jiu must be able to see them too.So she thought about it, and didn't ask the village wine what it meant.

Zhuang Jiu didn't wear glasses, so it was naturally impossible to detect the anomalies of these zombies.

Zhuang Jiu is looking at these overlapping lines.

She reacted almost immediately, the reason why they were sniffing there was probably to use the smell to judge their advancing route at that time.

Fortunately, she kept an eye out and didn't rush to drive the watermelon chariot to Leisure Winery. Instead, she suddenly had a bad premonition halfway through the drive, so she quickly turned back and drove towards the lead market untilTime is running out.

She looked nervously at the ever-lengthening blue line.If they really turned the corner at that turning point, it would prove that they must be able to smell other smells besides blood, for example, the liquid from other zombies.

It's also an evolution.

What's even more frightening is that if they followed Zhuang Jiu's scent, they might be able to find the real location of Leisure Winery.

If the last conjecture is true, then she must do something to avoid their pursuit. Of course, if it doesn't work, she can only be tough.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the zombies to reach the turning point.The route on the star network turned a corner at that place almost without stopping, and the blue route belonging to the zombies slowly extended in the direction of Lead City.

She clicked her tongue and put her glasses back on to observe.

Werther seemed to have washed those things and stored them in a small compartment on his body, while he himself fled towards the group of zombies at a very high speed.

The picture in front of the eyes returned to Werther's perspective.

He followed the zombies far away, waiting for Zhuang Jiu's instructions at any time.

As long as she speaks, the weapon that has already been disassembled in his hand will be sprayed out directly, and all of them will be greeted to the zombies.

But Zhuang Jiu is still waiting.

The current situation is basically certain that the five zombies now have 100% of the memories of the previous zombies, and the carrier connecting them should be the cyan chip.But what she needs to confirm now is another thing.

These zombies chased after them because they smelled their saliva, or because they could smell Zhuang Jiu and the others.

Soon they reached the place where the chariot finally came to rest.

Fortunately, they finally stopped at this place, with a blank expression on their faces, as if the clues were suddenly cut off after chasing here.

They cannot smell humans.

After understanding this point, Chateau and Werther will have corresponding measures to deal with them, so it is estimated that for a long time, Chateau Xian will be able to maintain a relatively stable state.

"Let's get rid of them, Werther." Zhuang Jiu and Tang Panpan took off their glasses, and she washed her hands and returned to the room, writing down some new characteristics of the zombies.

These things may be useful in the future.

Soon Werther returned to the winery.

After breaking contact with Zhuang Jiu, he dismembered all five zombies and found two cyan chips embedded in their skulls.One should be their own memory, and the other should be newly embedded.

After cleaning all the wafers, he packed up the zombies and threw them away from the Leisure Winery.After doing all this, he was still worried, and returned to Leisure Winery after getting rid of his own smell, Zhuang Jiu and Tang Panpan's possible smell.

Fortunately, he did so much to keep Leisure Winery at peace for a longer period of time.But that's all for later.

At dinner, Zhuang Jiu sat at the table and told everyone in Leisure Winery about the zombies, and how to deal with them. For their own safety, they need to reduce going out, etc., which are also listed in Leisure Wineryamong the precautions.

In fact, the human beings living in it don’t matter. After all, Leisure Winery has something to eat, a lot of games to play, and a lot of books to read. After Zhuang Jiu told them, he promised not to go out again.In contrast, Zhuang Jiu is most worried about animals such as hens.

After all, the hen has to go out every day to find something to eat for the children, and it is also the most likely to attract zombies, followed by Master Hong.

But it is impossible for Zhuang Jiu to restrict the actions of the hens, so after discussing with the hens, they came up with a compromise.

Xiao Shan itself has only the smell of earth, and this smell can easily blend with everything around it, and it will quickly dissipate in the wind.

Therefore, every day when the hen goes out, it stays in Xiao Shan's body, and after Xiao Shan takes it to a distance of ten kilometers from Leisure Winery, it goes out to find something to eat.It's the same way back.

It's a bit of a hassle, but it will make Leisure Winery a lot safer.

More than half a month later, Leisure Winery's second-season rice grows much faster than outside, and this month has reached maturity.

I don't know whether it is the problem of the ground being transformed by vines, or the problem of Master Hong loosening the soil every day.

Aunt Huang and Dr. Cui used to do farm work when they were in their hometown, and they could do these things much faster than Zhuang Jiu, so they volunteered to take on the job.It only took two people one morning to harvest all the rice and put it outside to dry to prepare for the next step.

During this period of time, the filter tank of the pond was basically built, and the basic structure was almost filled in. The next step is to pour the crystal ore into it.

In addition, Liu Yun also helped Dr. Cui and the others to build the house. After the completion of the house, it will be empty for a month, and then they can live in it with some things to remove the smell.The three houses are connected with each other by signal, if you want to eat or discuss things, you can chat directly through the star network.

This kind of life style seems to be the same as before the end of the world, except that you can't go out.

Moreover, this star network is a bit like a private network, which means that they can only send messages to each other, and there is no way to connect with the outside world, and they also cut off the plan in case someone wants to report to the alliance.

Although through observation, Zhuang Jiu found that no one in Leisure Winery should like the alliance, and naturally there is no such possibility.

At noon that day, when several people were sitting around eating, Zhuang Jiu's star network suddenly made a beeping sound.

During this period of time, according to Werther's modification, her star network will make different sounds according to the strength of the strange intruder creature.

For example, if it is judged that a creature is too big, or it is a very strong animal before it mutates, just like the giant boa constrictor before, the star net will make a sharp beeping sound;Yes, but the attack power is very weak, such as the hen, the sound is not so sharp.

Other than that, there is only one possible beeping sound.

That is, humans broke into the vicinity of Leisure Winery.

Because Witte placed the signal in more places, the monitoring range of the signal base station has been expanded to about 200 kilometers.The man was spotted almost as soon as he took a step, but the signal flickered on and off, so Werther mobilized a nearby drone to follow up to see the situation.

Zhuang Jiu also turned on the star net and placed it beside the dining table to see what was going on with the people while eating.

This is a girl who looks slightly bigger than Tang Panpan. Her hair and clothes are quite messy, and her true colors cannot be seen.The exposed skin was covered with wounds, and blood dripped continuously on the soil.

In this perilous forest, blood will attract fatal danger.

The girl obviously also knew about this, but her other hand was temporarily out of strength at the moment, so the bandaging would have to wait a while.

Werther adjusted the position of the screen in a timely manner to ensure that Zhuang Jiu could see her direction clearly.

She probably broke into the signal range by accident, because the red dot representing her on the star network was flickering and flickering, and she was just stuck on the edge of the signal monitoring, and she had no intention of heading towards the Leisure Winery.

But she is heading in a very dangerous direction now. After walking more than ten kilometers, she will encounter a large lake, which is the lake where zombies often appear.The name "Crystal Nucleus" is the name Zhuang Jiu gave to the cyan wafer, mainly for convenience, and after observing the wafer, she found that it looks a bit like an apple core, so she chose this name.

Of course, during this period of time, Werther killed the zombies every time they appeared, and took away the crystal nuclei in their brains, so there is no danger on the shore at this moment, but if this girl plans to live by the lake,It will be very dangerous in a few days.

Zombies may appear at any time.

She glanced back and looked away, signaling Werther to turn off the star gateway.

Zhuang Jiu had no intention of saving the girl, because she recognized the subtle alliance logo on the girl's bag, which proved that the girl was or is at least a member of the alliance.

No matter what purpose she came here alone, no matter whether she has been abandoned by the alliance now, for the safety of herself and Leisure Winery, Zhuang Jiu will never save her.

It's just that when she looked away, she saw Aunt Huang and Dr. Cui sitting opposite her, their hands holding chopsticks were shaking slightly.

The author has something to say:

Aunt Huang & Dr. Cui: I am so angry to see someone I know!What should I do?Waiting online, urgent.
