crawling variants…

Judging from the name alone, it seems to have been excluded from the scope of normal evolution and modification.

Wang Lan and Sun Muchen exchanged a glance, then looked at Old Zhang.

Old Zhang noticed their gazes, went up to them, looked directly at the brother and sister, and slowly said, "The so-called crawling variant, which can also be called a crawler, is no longer within the category of normal variants. It has lost the basic characteristics of a human, with a large head, four legs on the ground, and a tail."

"You actually knew that!"

"You must be Zhang Jingyi, right?"

The brother and sister, singing in unison, became even more convinced that the voice in the audio recording was indeed coming from the old Zhang in front of them.

Faced with the siblings' questions, Old Zhang neither explained nor said much, but simply listened carefully to the voice in the audio recording.

"Another problem has arisen!"

"More and more variants seem to be resurrecting from the abandoned pool. Reports from the safe zone indicate that some variants have attacked civilians and can even spread their effects by biting, causing a certain degree of infection. Fortunately, they were cleaned up in time, preventing the spread from spreading on a large scale."

"After deliberation, the leadership of the final fortress unanimously decided to abandon the civilians in the safe zone. On the one hand, the emergence of infected individuals is intended to accelerate the evolution of civilians, in the hope that they can achieve better evolution and provide more diverse clone options before the next eternal night arrives."

"On the other hand, we have also begun to investigate and count the number of resurrected variants, and at the same time carry out quantitative hunting of resurrected variants. Once we solve the mystery of the resurrection of variants, it will bring us a breakthrough!"

...

"There are major problems with the plan."

When the voice in the audio played again, this time, Zhang Jingyi's voice sounded noticeably tired and weary.

"The effects of the serum are far greater than we imagined, even beyond our control. It seems... we can no longer control the changes the serum causes to the human body, because after disrupting the human gene chain, the serum has undergone multiple rearrangements and recombinations, resulting in new variants that we did not anticipate during our experiments..."

"We call them...infected!"

"Those bitten by the original variant will undergo a zombie-like transformation, their heart stops beating, they lose vital signs, and they become devoid of thought, only knowing how to eat. They are extremely aggressive, and their strength, speed, and endurance are all enhanced accordingly. However, their weakness is also very obvious; it only requires destroying their brain tissue. But I think... we can continue to advance this experiment..."

"More bad news!"

"For the first time, infected individuals have appeared in the underground residential area of ​​the final fortress. Although the armed forces quickly cleared them out, this is not a good sign, as there was no reason for them to appear. I have established a special task force to thoroughly investigate the source of the infection. The tracing work will begin immediately, and a comprehensive disinfection of the residential area will be carried out!"

"Strange things are happening again..."

"Ten new infections have been reported. The source of infection is currently unknown, as no infected individuals have ever been released into residential areas. This... is truly baffling..."

"Residential Area One has fallen..."

"The number of infected people is increasing daily, and the situation is out of control. We can't even determine where the index case came from. Starting today, residential area number one will be locked down!"

"The entire residential area is facing a major problem!"

"Following residential area number one, infected individuals have appeared in residential areas number three, four, six, and seven. After testing, no serum elements that could cause mutations in humans were found in the air. Why infected individuals appeared... remains a mystery!"

The voice was getting faster and faster.

The series of unexpected events seemed to have thrown Zhang Jingyi into disarray.

The listeners had already furrowed their brows. Although they already knew the final result, they felt compelled to continue listening.

"well…"

A sigh.

"After sealing off all residential areas, we thought we could control the spread of the infected, but unexpectedly, infected individuals also appeared among the management team inside the fortress..."

His voice was filled with an unprecedented weariness.

"Although I hate to admit it, the future plan has failed, and even... has pushed us to the brink of destruction."

"Now, let's review all the known variants of infected individuals and see if we can find a breakthrough among them."

"First and foremost, there are ordinary infected individuals."

"They are neither alive nor dead. They are considered the basis for other types of infected individuals. Some of them still retain their pre-infection memories and are able to speak."

"Giant infected."

"Years ago, outside the safe zone, we accidentally obtained a blood sample called 'S' and cloned an unknown life form. However, this life form could never survive and always died shortly after birth. When the serum was injected into the bodies of already dead infected individuals, we found that the cells in the infected individuals were highly integrated with it. The giant infected individuals retained human physical characteristics and forms and could evolve by devouring infected individuals. Strangely, the giant infected individuals had the ability to recover by consuming flesh and blood, as well as the ability to increase their speed."

As soon as those words were spoken...

Wang Lan then thought of the giant infected person in the restricted area.

At the same time, he was also very curious about the blood sample named S.

I just don't know if this sample is still in the lab.
