Chapter 138 End of the New Era
Help humanity?
You are right, zombies and humans are born enemies, one side feeds on the other, and the other side uses the crystal cores in the brain of the other side as a way to advance.
How could zombies help them? They wouldn't even dare to dream of such a thing.
Suddenly, the light curtain shook violently, as if it had fallen off the wearer's wrist, passed through the sky, and then fell at a very fast speed. In the end, no one knew where it landed, but what a coincidence it was at an angle where one could see the overall situation in the room.
They really were zombies. The not-so-small room was filled with dozens of high-level zombies. These zombies were organized and disciplined, with clear goals and powerful abilities. They beat the people in the Y base back step by step.
However, there was one zombie among these zombies that stood out the most. No matter how high their levels of superpowers were, the other zombies were all sloppy and half-naked.
Only the last zombie was dressed neatly. His entire body was clean, as if he had just taken a shower. His hair was a little long, but not greasy. It was very fluffy and tied into a braid at the back of his head, which was very handsome. He even wore a pair of white shoes on his feet. Those white shoes were cleaner than those worn by humans, as white as snow.
"Look at the one at the end, is he really a zombie?" Zhou Qin and others noticed this unique zombie.
"He is." Ji An looked at the zombie carefully. "Although he is very clean and looks cleaner than some humans, he must be a zombie. Pay attention to his movements."
The zombie lazily leaned on a console. This should have been a cool, lazy and chic action. However, due to the stiffness of the zombie's joints, the zombie looked very stiff and somatic when doing this action. Just like a mechanical puppet.
At this time, several people had already run out of the command center and came to the foot of the ladder. As long as they sat on the ladder, they could log on to the artificial planet.
Owen stopped and stood still as if he was under a spell, staring at the zombies in the light curtain.
"Owen, go up the ladder first, there's no time." Ji An urged.
Owen seemed not to hear her. She stared at the screen with tears in her eyes.
"It's him, it's really him." Owen's voice trembled and tears fell in big drops.
"Who?" Ji An asked.
"Ruan Lan, Du Ruan Lan!" Owen suddenly shouted at the light curtain: "Du Ruan Lan, it's you, I know it's you! Turn your head and look at me, Du Ruan Lan!"
Owen's heart-wrenching scream was transmitted to the other side through the light curtain, and the zombie with his back to them suddenly froze. Even though the zombie's body was already stiff, it could be seen that he became even stiffer.
"Boss, I know you miss Boss Du. But Boss Du... Even if Boss Du is gifted and really turns into a zombie, zombies have no memories of their previous lives, and they can't understand human language." Jiang Fuzhong said painfully: "I miss Boss Du too, but I know Boss Du can't come back."
Owen shook his head and pushed Jiang Fuzhong away. "You're talking nonsense! Ruan Lan is so powerful, he is different. I will never mistake him for anyone else. This zombie must be Du Ruan Lan!"
Ji An and Gu Jinsheng had not spent much time with Du Ruanlan, so they really had no way of recognizing her just by looking at her back.
Owen yelled at the light curtain: "Du Ruanlan, turn around, don't pretend you don't understand! You sent me those messages, don't deny it, except you, no one knows our secret code."
The zombie with its back to them seemed to really not understand and did not turn around. When a person with special powers broke through the zombie group and attacked him, he waved his arms and released his special powers to repel the person.
"Du Ruanlan, stop pretending to be dead, turn around!"
No matter how heartbreakingly Owen screamed, the zombie remained indifferent.
Jiang Fuzhong said: "Boss, it can't be Boss Du. Boss Du loves you so much. If it is really him, he will definitely not have the heart to see you in such pain!"
Owen wiped his face fiercely and said angrily: "Du Ruanlan, you are pretending to be dead, right? Fine! I will go find you."
"Boss!"
"Owen, don't be impulsive." Ji An said.
"I am not impulsive. When the end of the world came, Du Ruanlan and I swore to heaven and earth that we would live and die together in this life. Now I am just fulfilling the original promise."
Owen wiped his tears and said calmly, "You guys go, don't worry about me. Now that we know where he is and he's still alive, I'm going to try my luck."
The figure on the other side of the light curtain became increasingly stiff, and Owen took out his mecha.
Jiang Fuzhong said anxiously: "No matter who you are, if you can really understand human language, please turn around and let me give up. Otherwise, she will really fly over to find you."
The zombie obviously understood. He slowly turned around, and the face that Owen had been haunting in his dreams walked straight into the light curtain.
"Boss Du!"
"Du Ruanlan!"
Ji An and others said in unison.
Owen's tears, which had finally stopped, began to drip again like pearls from a broken string.
"I knew it was you. I knew it had to be you. No one else knows our secret except you." Owen burst into tears. "Since you are still alive and still remember me, why don't you come to find me? Do you know how I have been spending this time?"
Du Ruanlan shook his head slowly, opened his mouth and let out a hoarse and ugly roar like a wild beast.
Owen's expression froze for a moment, and then his tears fell even harder.
"How could this happen? How is this possible? No way, you are lying to me!" Owen didn't want to believe it. Du Ruanlan was clearly standing there alive and well, and he still remembered her, so how could she really turn into a zombie?
Du Ruanlan stretched out his hand to wipe Owen's tears through the light curtain, but everyone's eyes were on his nails.
Du Ruanlan's nails are very long and blue-black in color, which is one of the unique physical characteristics of zombies.
Du Ruanlan seemed to be giving a wry smile, but Ji An and the others couldn't see it clearly because the zombies' facial nerves were underdeveloped and they couldn't make subtle expressions.
Du Ruanlan took out a nail clipper from his pocket and clumsily used it to cut his own nails.
But the nails seemed to have their own consciousness. As soon as he cut them, they grew wildly again.
Owen shook his head. "Stop, stop cutting. That's enough."
Du Ruanlan stopped and looked at Owen with a pair of deep eyes, the sadness in his eyes was surging.
Owen cried, "It doesn't matter, even if you become a zombie. We once made a vow that no matter what we become, we will always stay together."
This time it was Du Ruanlan who shook his head.
"I don't care. I'll go find you right now. At worst, I'll become a zombie with you."
Du Ruanlan was anxious. He searched everywhere for the trace of the intelligent brain and finally found it on a very high machine. Du Ruanlan jumped lightly, and the zombies' advanced athletic ability made Du Ruanlan bounce up and easily reach the intelligent brain.
Du Ruanlan tapped the smart computer with her fingernails, and soon a string of text was sent to Owen's smart computer.
"Don't look for me. Promise me to leave."
"I don't want to. I know you're still here, so how could I leave?"
"Leave." Du Ruanlan kept sending these two words over and over again, and each time represented his determination.
Just at this moment, a scream came from behind. Du Ruanlan turned around and saw that the person screaming was Charles.
Charles was vomiting blood, and his arms were scratched by zombies and blood was oozing out.
Charles didn't seem nervous, but there was even more madness in his eyes.
He made a phone call and ordered him: "Launch missiles. All of you, launch missiles at the Jing City base. Immediately."
Du Ruanlan immediately sent another message to Owen, "Leave, quickly!"
Owen didn't want to leave, but Du Ruanlan's eyes were full of pleading. Owen closed his eyes and said, "I'm sorry, I spoke out of turn. I can't accompany you for the rest of my life."
Owen burst into tears and stepped onto the ladder. Ji An, Gu Jinsheng and others immediately followed her and the ladder slowly rose.
When they arrived at the artificial planet, Du Ruanlan's face suddenly disappeared. The artificial planet had no network for the time being and could not connect to the outside world.
"Log in." Ji An said softly.
Owen took one last look back at Earth and landed on the artificial planet.
Wan Xueying picked them up one by one and then asked: "Boss, what's wrong with the Earth?"
"Base Y has teamed up with Charles and has launched missiles at Base Jing."
"Owen, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"
Owen burst into tears and couldn't utter a word.
Ji An explained: "The person who has been helping us and secretly passed the message to Owen is Du Ruanlan."
Wan Xueying asked: "Where are the others? Why didn't they catch up?"
"He has turned into a zombie. Although I don't know why Du Ruanlan can still retain his human memories, he has indeed turned into a zombie."
Wan Xueying was stunned.
Jiang Fuzhong looked at Owen and comforted him, "Boss, don't be sad. From what I've seen of Boss Du, even if he becomes a zombie, he's still the zombie king. He lives no worse than when he was a human. He's very majestic. I think his zombie brothers all listen to him."
"Spiritual system." Ji An said.
The zombie ability that Du Ruanlan awakened should be of the spiritual type. Only a spiritual zombie king could control the horde of zombies under his command so easily.
Ji An and Gu Jinsheng looked at each other, and both thought of the time before Gu Jinsheng turned into a zombie, when they had given Du Ruanlan spiritual spring water. The spiritual spring had the effect of stimulating spiritual powers, and Xiao Shitou and Xiao Meigui had awakened their spiritual powers after drinking the spiritual spring water.
It is normal for Gu Jinsheng to awaken into a psychotic zombie, but I don’t know why he still retains his memories.
Suddenly the artificial planet shook violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.
"What's going on?" Wan Xueying asked.
Ji An discovered through satellite monitoring equipment that the artificial planet seemed to be rising slowly.
"Oh no! Base Y has broken the ladder. Without the support of the ladder, the artificial planet is rising due to gravity."
Kong Zhongcheng was horrified, "What will happen then?"
"I don't know." Ji An shook his head.
The artificial planet has been rising under the influence of gravity. No one knows how long it has been wandering in space. When the residents on the artificial planet have adapted to the constant wandering of their planet, it seems to have found its position and stopped.
At this time, the artificial planet is nearly 400,000 kilometers away from the earth.
Human beings settled down on the new planet and began a new era.
