The Daily Life of the Zombie

Chapter 32: Fragments

After confirming that no one could approach her small base, Xiao Xiao took the nearest distance and went outside the defense line.

She was driving a special off-road vehicle that she had taken abroad with Gu Chen, with bullet-proof glass, detachable fenders, and even modified a lot of weapons.

This car cost a lot of money, and the Gu family ordered a total of 60 cars, but unfortunately there were only 12 cars in time. It was a big killer in the early days of the end.

According to the codes 1 to 12, they are named Zimo, Chou Niu, Yin Hu, Mao Rabbit, Chen Long, Si Snake, Wu Ma, Wei Yang, Shen Monkey, You Chicken, Xu Dog, and Hai Pig according to the order of production.

Originally, 60 units were planned to be named after the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, but now only 12 units are produced and they are named after the zodiac.

The basic appearance is the same, but the built-in weapons and performance are different.

She have a Maotu. She doesnt know if Gu Chen chose this one for Xiao Xiao out of some bad taste, but the configuration of this one is mainly speed. For reconnaissance, the weapon is only a light machine wooden warehouse.

Y city is considered to be in the position of the defense line, so the situation is relatively stable.

With Xiao Xiao all the way from K city, shuttle through L city to D city at the border of the defense line, the situation is obviously different.

For example, City K and City L belong to Province X. There is no chaos under the arrangement of the Gu family, and they are even very united in cleaning the environment and training.

But it is very different when it comes to City D. In the most borderline areas of the defense line, the first is the flow of refugees.

The one who escaped from the outside and the one inside the defense line are completely different, and the two sides cannot be directly placed together, and there will definitely be problems.

Therefore, simple tents were set up on the periphery of City D. This is the checkpoint for entering the city, which is mainly used to prevent infected people from mixing into the city.

The vast majority of those who fled from the defense line would go to the military after a few days of repair, and then set off again with the army.

In addition to mostly looking for relatives and friends, there is also a wave of people who can no longer return to that kind of stable life, so they go out of defense to hunt zombies.

When Xiao Xiao arrived at the defense line of City D, it was about the fifth day after the solar eclipse, which meant that there were still nearly ten days before the large number of mutant beasts appeared. Of course, a small number of mutant beasts had already appeared.

The system told Xiao Xiao that that substance would be easy to obtain at the beginning of the apocalypse, because it only flowed on the surface and would not completely enter the host's body.

But as time grows, the deeper the host is fused with the strange elements, the faster the degree of mutation will be. That is to say, if Xiao Xiao does not take these strange elements away within a certain period of time, the group of mutant beasts or zombies will be spawned, and will become a nightmare for mankind.

You must know that in the memory implanted by the system, the second-tier is three months, and the third-tier is half a year.

But this substance is not in the calculation of the system, so it will seriously affect the rate of evolution.

'But the good news is that due to the decrease in the number of zombies, it is now possible to directly detect which place has a higher concentration of strange elements.' The system said to Xiao Xiao. 'Those are the monsters you have to deal with.'

The system uses monsters to call the group of mutant beasts and zombies that have been catalyzed and mutated.

Xiao Xiao's first target was in a valley not far from the defense line.

'You say, what is this?' Xiao Xiao parked the car outside the valley and put it in the space. Although it has been modified, it is still not enough to see in front of this group of monsters.

'The first-tier mutant pig, after being transformed by strange elements, is now roughly equivalent to the third-tier.' The system answered Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao doesn't think so.

She had also seen Tier 3 mutant pigs in that dream, but they definitely didn't look like this!

What she can see in her mental power is a head like a dragon, a body like a horse, two protruding antlers on the head, and an ox's tail, with colorful fur patterns on the back and yellow hair on the abdomen of a monster.

Is this adjective familiar? That's right, it's Kirin!

However, in the ancient description, the unicorn is an auspicious beast, and it has nothing to do with the end of the world!

The only thing it has the same as the mutant pig is probably its size.

'You say this is a mutant boar? How do it look like the legendary unicorn? '

Xiao Xiao said that she doesn't read much, so don't lie to her!

'According to the information I have collected, the mythical monsters among human beings are not created out of nothing, they have existed.' The system gave an answer that surprised Xiao Xiao.

'Whether it's the Nine Sons of the Dragon, the Nian Beast, or the Four Holy Beasts of Qinglong, Suzaku, Xuanwu, and Phoenix, or the various monsters mentioned in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, they all once existed on Earth, but not at this point in time. '

Xiao Xiao said, there is such a statement?

'What do you mean by not being at this point in time?'

Seeing how Xiao Xiao didn't understand, the system also explained it in great detail.

'That is, after the extinction of the dinosaurs, the world should have been beasts, and humans should not exist on earth. '

'Humanity is too destructive, and it reproduces very fast, just like cancer cells on the earth.'

Xiao Xiao agrees very much with this.

In just a few thousand years, the earth has almost collapsed. You must know, how many years did it take for the earth to evolve into such a flourishing appearance? It is very vivid to use cancer cells as a metaphor for human beings.

'And after the extinction of the dinosaurs, these monsters did not appear, which is not normal! It should be said that they still appeared but not in this dimension, but some people are gifted with extraordinary talents, and they have accumulated a lot from ancient times to the present. They can come into contact with the dimension where there are only monsters and no humans.'

'One or two people say it as sleep talk, but when a bunch of people in different places say the same thing, it's a myth.'

'That's where mythology comes from. '

Xiao Xiao looked at the creature in front of her who didn't know it was called a pig or a unicorn, and wondered:

'What does myth have to do with mutation? '

'As I said before, our main civilization and human beings are not in the same dimension, and that kind of strange element is also, that kind of element will penetrate the two dimensions into each other, like a hole in the middle of the two grids, and the gas will penetrate each other like a leakage. 'The system is interpreted in a way that is more understandable to humans.

'In other words, my next target is this kind of monster?' Xiao Xiao said, it doesn't matter if it's a monster, but it's not good if it's too ugly.

'Part of it is, but not necessarily.' The system gave an answer that made Xiao Xiao even more incomprehensible.

'Forget it, as long as it comes, it's okay, just get rid of it, right? How do I collect Strange Elements? '

'Don't collect it, it will automatically flow to you and I will suck it away.' The system seems to understand this element quite well.

'You take it as experience value. Monsters do not coexist peacefully. They are essentially carbon-based creatures, but they are just alienated. As long as they hunt each other, they can get this element. Evolution is the instinct of ancient genes, the battle between them will not stop.'

'Then can't I wait for them to kill each other before harvesting?' Xiao Xiao asked in a whimsical way.

'Impossible!' The system condemned Xiao Xiao's naivety. 'You must know that this is only a small part of the meteorite that has been diluted, which has already caused this kind of mutation. If there is one collected to a certain extent, the earth will be destroyed directly! '

Think about it, the legendary super-giant monster that can move mountains and even call for wind and rain appears in reality, how many times can the earth withstand turbulence?

After being told this by the system, Xiao Xiao also knew that she was thinking too simply.

'I see, in short, kill them all, right? '

This kind of hunting has been done many times in Xiao Xiao's implanted memory. Although the target looks different, Xiao Xiao still kills it very quickly. Now Xiao Xiao can directly kill it with her mental power. Pressing the opponent, only the brain of the corpse will turn into a paste, and there will be no scars on other body parts.

But what makes Xiao Xiao strange is that the dead body of the monster, in her eyes, changed back to the original wild boar after all the strange elements disappeared.

'This is? '

'This is the singular element! And it's only what it looks like to you and all monsters that get the strange element. Its essence has not changed, but you can only see its appearance when you 'see' another dimension through the strange element. '

'Me? Why can I see it too? '

'Because you have already come into contact with my dimension, you will naturally see things differently. '

'Really...'

Xiao Xiao didn't want to think about the things she couldn't figure out. Anyway, she just wanted to hurry up and hunt these strange creatures as much as possible.

Since Xiao Xiao ran in an uninhabited place, she has not yet come into contact with the worst-hit area of zombies. Naturally, it is not clear that due to the existence of strange elements, there are already second-tier zombies.

This made Gu family, who received Xiao Xiao's prediction and believed in it, suffered a lot of injuries. Fortunately, they were all trained ability users, so no one was injured or killed.

However, this also made the Gu family have a strange voice.

"What about people? Didn't she say that the second-tier will only appear in three months? Now that there are heavy casualties everywhere, how should we explain it to our allies?" This is Gu Chen's second cousin, Gu Yilong, who works in the military and has very upright personality.

"I don't know, but it's just her precognition dream, she has done her best! This kind of accident is not her fault, do you understand?"

Gu Chen was also very angry, Xiao Xiao didn't know where to go, but it was her willingness to speak out about this matter regardless of her own safety.

"You don't even think about it. Without her, this line of defense would not exist at all! Now the situation is very good! The news from abroad has come back, and that is the real end of the world. Do you want to take a look?"

Gu Chen went back rudely, but Xiao Xiao is not something they can criticize.

"Then she should at least explain! Now that the allies are causing trouble for us, it doesn't matter if we can block her back, but what if she doesn't show up?" This is Gu Chen's eldest cousin, Gu Qiang, a strong woman. She is in charge of all the commercial parts of the Gu family in M City, and she is still unmarried in her early thirties.

She has always criticized Xiao Xiao. She saw her last time at the airport. She always felt that there was something wrong with Xiao Xiao, as if she was not angry. Of course, this can be classified as her sixth sense, anyway, she don't like her.

"She is absolutely inseparable from the end of the world, and the disappearance of her is the best proof. Otherwise, why didn't she explain clearly that she was leaving?"

"She has done enough! Is she not wrong? She has suffered so much since she was a child. It's a lot of injustice, she didn't choose to hate humans, and she didn't even want to give a warning, everyone here, including you and me, has no right to accuse her!"

Gu Chen also knew that this situation was uncomfortable for everyone.

Because after these accidents, many elites who were sent to search and rescue were lost, especially the group of allies who believed in the Gu family's warning. They were not the soldiers who had been completely trained like the Gu family. But they died because of this misinformation!

But this is not the reason to put anger on Xiao Xiao's head!

Xiao Xiao has already raised a warning, she is not a god, at least she has done what she should do.
