Chapter 48 Zombies
Everyone got out of the car, Biss drove the trunk, took out a plug-in gas dual-use stove, connected it to the car cigarette lighter. Fang Shi poured in water and added instant noodles. While waiting, as a psychic and nobleman, Biss found some dry wood and created a pile of small fires. The fire was mainly provided for Anjie. Even in the hostile camp, Biss showed his demeanor.
After four hours of continuous journey, the driver was tired and the passengers were tired. Being able to walk on the ground can make people feel physically and mentally happy. Even if there was heating in the car, Anjiela still chose to get off. Although she no longer felt cold after putting on the down coat, Biss's considerate heart made her very grateful. Only Huang Ye was unhappy. The person you want to love was Fang Shi, not Biss.
Fortunately, Fang Shi looked like a captain, so he gave Anjie a portion of noodles first. The cold winter can have such hot noodles and hot soup, which is definitely more than the benefits brought by a small fire. As expected, Anjiera tasted a different taste of noodles. When asked Fang Shi, Fang Shi said that he would blanch the side first and then use some extra seasonings. The two sat side by side on the wood to communicate without nutrition about the taste. Because the wood was very short, it was very close. Huangye was very satisfied with it.
After everyone had their noodles, Anjiela diligently used a bag to collect the food bowl and knife and fork in a bag, and then cleaned it after there was a source of water. From this point of view, Anjiela herself did not have the aphor of a saint and was willing to do something within her ability. According to the saint recorded in the book, diligent work is done by others.
The five of them sat in front of the fire, chatting, dazed, or thought about their own affairs. At this time, a man walked slowly from the fork, and everyone looked at him together. Although it was dark, because of the thoughts, they could still see clearly.
This is a middle-aged man with a mud mixed with snow and soil on his body and face. His clothes are ragged, just like a person who has just escaped from a mud pit. The most amazing thing is that he has not been frozen to death in this situation.
As the captain, Fang Shi stood up and greeted: "Sir, are you okay?"
The middle-aged man shook his head, Fang Shi helped the middle-aged man sit next to the fire, and saw that the middle-aged man's calves had all broken trousers, there were many scars on his muscles, and there was a smell of clean water on his body.
Biss took a step to the left, blocked An Jiela, and spoke: "Fang Shi, be careful, something is wrong with this person."
Fang Shi did not doubt, and took a few steps back to Anjie and observed the middle-aged man together. The distance between the two sides was only three meters. The middle-aged man seemed to not notice the alertness of the few people. He sat on the wood, hugged his knees with his hands, lowered his head and looked at the flames quietly.
Fang Shi asked: "What's wrong?"
"The smell of formalin is usually used for corpses. If you look at his clothes and pants, it is a black suit." Biss said: "He may be a zombie, the kind of zombie that crawled out of the cemetery." The zombie mentioned by Biss should be zombies in the words "in the words".
Zombies are different from ghosts. Ghosts have ghosts and have their own sense of self. Zombies have no ghosts or souls, they are just moving corpses.
Fang Shi said: "So he has something to do with what we are investigating?"
Biss: "Don't know."
Fang Shi asked: "How do zombies form?"
"Many kinds." Biss observed while being alert, and replied: "The most common zombie is the formation of witchcraft manipulation, but if he is a zombie, he does not seem to be controlled."
Among the few people, Huang Ye was still sitting and said, "The zombies in the West are different from our Eastern zombies. Most of them are disposable items. In the era of cold weapons, wizards controlled corpses and entered local camps to spread plagues. I think this zombie ran too far and was out of the control of the wizard."
"What is the function of modern zombies?" Fang Shi didn't know much about Western zombies.
Biss said: "The heavy labor such as moving goods and digging land can be completed by zombies. These zombies are extremely powerful, and their bones and bodies are blessed by magic circles, allowing them to work day and night. They can also work in some strong radiation areas, such as special metal mines..." The most precious thing in the future is not talents, but zombies. They can not only serve their masters like robots, but also they are flesh and blood...
Speaking of this, Biss stepped forward a few steps, touched the zombie's clothes, looked at his hands, and said, "Is there a crystal mine nearby?"
Crystal ore is a type of ore strictly controlled by the Human Alliance. The magic circle of the Ninth Branch Trial House uses the refined crystal energy. Crystal ore is very rare, and the risk of mining is very high, because Crystal ore has a large amount of radon gas, which can cause irreversible damage to the human body. According to different mental power, it can protect the damage of different concentrations of radon gas. The Human Alliance has three crystal ore that are still working, all of which are excavated and mined by psychics with very high mental power equivalents. However, mining takes a lot of time and energy. As psychics, not many people like to engage in this industry. In addition, the content of crystal elements that can be refined in each mine is very small, so crystals become very precious, and it can be said that they are priceless.
Crystals have many functions, and are mainly used to drive magic arrays. The power of magic arrays assisted by crystals can be doubled, which can greatly reduce the mental power consumption of the formation person. At the same time, wearing crystals with high purity to practice mind power equivalent has a considerable gain effect. The center part of the goddess logo worn by Bis is made of crystals. According to the purity, volume and usage of crystals, crystals also have different lifespans. If wearing crystals to practice mind power, one is usually needed a year.
The psychics have a very large demand for crystals, but the output is very small. The three mines in the Human Alliance are almost exhausted. At present, no crystal ore with extremely large stocks are found, and most of them are scattered. Several small ores or medium crystals can be extracted. This mineral requires hundreds of meters of deep digging and then dangerous collection work is carried out. All of this has also led to crystals becoming the number one luxury in the superpower world.
Hundreds of years ago, there was a precedent for using zombies to mine crystal ores, but with the development of human civilization, the wizard who can control corpses, the psychic known as the necromancer, has disappeared. The only thing I know is a necromancer named Kalai, who was wanted by the Alliance for controlling the corpse of the former bishop and lost both hands. When traveling to China, Meixu Xiaofang's pair of gold earrings fell into the hands of the transformed man Dangdang. Dangdang escaped because of helping the arrested Kalai escape and became a wanted criminal of the Alliance.
Judy asked: "Are you sure?" If so, then call for alliance reinforcements, and it is very likely that two wanted criminals in the Western countries were lurking.
"Not sure." Biss replied: "In the book records, there are some natural phenomena that can also lead to the creation of zombies."
