Chapter 177 Cheers to a Bright Future
Magnetic field energy is variable.
If you don't pay close attention, you'll mistake it for airflow.
However, these two are not the same thing at all.
The reason why the foreign controller was created is to probe a certain area, so it is designed to be particularly sensitive, and no amount of energy can escape its detection.
However, this product has not yet been officially released.
Therefore, many people do not understand its existence.
The changes in the magnetic field were detected, but the only thing that could cause the magnetic field to become like this is the dark matter energy within the magnetic field.
This instrument was originally created to capture the energy of dark matter.
However, dark matter energy is so elusive that it has been tried and caught several times without success.
All we know is that any change in the magnetic field is inextricably linked to dark matter energy.
Ji Zai frowned as he looked at the grayish thing on Ningda's screen. "How interesting. They've actually gathered at Ningda. Now I have something to do. I'd really like to know how to get rid of all this magnetic energy."
What exactly is dark matter energy?
How do they choose their hosts to cause such great damage?
This is a mystery.
Despite the advancements in science and technology worldwide, no one can definitively tell the world what dark matter energy is.
Until this time, dark matter energy launched an attack on humanity, guiding changes in the magnetic field, thus causing the horrific doomsday of Ning City.
This is humanity's first battle against dark matter energy.
Therefore, Ji Zai was at a loss.
No one can say they are guaranteed victory against an opponent they know nothing about.
We can only explore this thing step by step.
Fortunately, Ji Zai finally realized the existence of dark matter energy. Thanks to her sister activating the system, she remembered her original intention for researching the system. Otherwise, she would still think that this apocalypse was really caused by a viral mutation.
She murmured, "Now, let's study how to disperse the converging magnetic field and see what dark matter energy is afraid of."
We finally caught them.
There has to be something left behind.
With the culprit of the apocalypse identified, the historical records can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
So many days have passed.
She had been anxious about the cause of Ning City's doomsday.
The virus is mutating at an alarming rate, but they are unable to keep up with it. If this continues, they will be wiped out.
We now know that the cause of the virus's changes is dark matter energy.
This relieved her.
We've finally found a direction for a breakthrough.
Where there is direction, there is hope.
At least they're not like headless flies anymore.
Today, Liu Jingya was on duty in the control room. She saw Ji Zai slumped in a wheelchair and asked curiously, "Leader, is there a new discovery? You seem so happy."
Ji Zai nodded, "Indeed, we've finally identified who the culprit behind the apocalypse was, which will save us a lot of trouble."
"The culprit?" Liu Jingya's information was still limited to the fact that the lab was colleagues with the Alliance Leader. Now, hearing her say this, she had a bad feeling. "Why do I feel like the way you're saying this, Alliance Leader, is that the lab is trying to whitewash itself? Don't tell me that the lab wasn't the culprit of the apocalypse."
Ji Zai was pleased with her understanding, "It really wasn't a laboratory. They were just taking the blame for something. Now I've caught that thing. If all goes well, the virus won't evolve anymore."
Upon hearing this news, Liu Jingya was stunned. "So, the zombies won't get stronger anymore?"
"right."
Having received accurate information, Liu Jingya breathed a sigh of relief.
She pulled over a wheelchair and lay down. "Finally, some good news. For more than four months, we've been living in fear. One minute we're afraid of the rain, the next we're afraid of the virus, and then we're afraid of something else. We can't sleep all day because we're worried that our roommate will turn into a zombie tomorrow."
"But we dare not tell the alliance leader."
“You’re already exhausted enough. If you have to worry about our feelings too, you’ll break down sooner or later.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Zai chuckled, understanding dawning on her.
After all, she had a lot of work to do. Although she always seemed relaxed, she was actually exhausted and would fall asleep as soon as she got back to her dorm.
They simply couldn't attend to anything else.
Not everyone has a strong heart like her.
After the initial panic of the apocalypse, she no longer showed any signs of panic; she had become accustomed to the apocalypse.
Ji Zai admired his amazing adaptability.
Someone who spends most of their time in a laboratory can actually handle the monsters and demons of the apocalypse with such composure.
She's really amazing.
Ji Zai had to admire herself. "Don't worry, we'll get out of here, and we'll definitely survive."
Liu Jingya nodded. "That's what Ouyang Yi told us too."
We now know the reason for the evolution of zombies.
This is the main reason why people can stop and catch their breath.
At least the zombies won't get stronger anymore.
They no longer need to worry about zombies one day breaking through the invisible wall and devouring them, so they can stop and get a good night's sleep.
The two of them thought about it and did just that.
They instantly enter a state of giving up.
As Ji Zai lay there, he stretched comfortably and said, "This is truly life. If only I had some roast chicken."
At this point, she remembered, "I remember we stocked up on a lot of eggs, about three hundred or so. We asked the canteen to bring them out, one for each person, to satisfy our cravings!"
Liu Jingya got excited when she mentioned this, "Eggs! I've been craving them for so long! We haven't eaten any meat for four whole months! We were almost malnourished, and now we can finally eat some meat to replenish our bodies!"
Speaking of meat...
Ji Zai then thought of the fish in the fishpond.
As far as the eye can see, it's all a dark, dense mass.
We can eat grilled fish now.
Because the fishpond was outdoors, Ji Zai was worried that the fish might be affected when it rained.
After Dr. Cui took Su Dan to examine the patient, he shook his head in affirmation.
The fish is perfectly fine.
Just like vegetables, after 24 hours, the virus will lose its activity, and then they can be eaten.
In other words, this virus is specifically targeted at humans.
I used to find it strange that it only targets humans.
Now that we know about the existence of dark matter energy, Ji Zai is curious about whether the virus is targeting humanity or dark matter energy is targeting humanity.
It now appears to be the latter.
But now is not the time to talk about that. Thinking of grilled fish, Ji Zai subconsciously drooled. "Eggs for lunch, grilled fish for dinner! Only then can we celebrate our great discovery."
Upon hearing this, Liu Jingya drooled. "So arrogant! I'm going to tell the cafeteria staff right now!"
After saying that, she ran away as fast as she could.
Only Ji Zai remained, lying peacefully.
When Dr. Cui came up, he saw a salted fish lying in a wheelchair.
He was shocked. "So you've finally come to your senses and are planning to leave Ningmeng's mess behind and enjoy yourself? But isn't it a bit informal to enjoy yourself here? You should go to the Greenhouse Garden instead; that's the paradise for slacking off."
"After drinking that flower tea, I felt completely comfortable."
Ji Zai said lazily, "Go away. Today is a day worth celebrating. I don't want to chat with Juan Wang. On such a good day, we should be lazy."
Dr. Cui asked curiously, "What's so special about this that warrants such a celebration?"
Ji Zai paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "Celebrating the anniversary that zombies will no longer get stronger! Tell me, is it worth it?"
Upon hearing this, Dr. Cui stopped yawning, as he keenly grasped the deeper meaning in Ji Zai's words.
He said with restraint, "You've found the reason for the virus's evolution!"
Ji Zai nodded.
The moment Dr. Cui saw her nod, fireworks exploded in his mind.
Holy crap.
That's great.
The reason for the virus's evolution has been found.
As long as it is stopped, the virus cannot become stronger, and neither can the zombies.
Everything will remain as it is now.
In other words, their lives were saved.
The entire city of Ning no longer has to hesitate and waver in the fear of death!
Dr. Cui exclaimed excitedly, "How can this not be a day worth celebrating! Let's raise our glasses and toast to this great discovery! By the way, how do we stop the virus from evolving? Should we use firearms to wipe it out?"
Ji Zai shook his head. "How could that be? I know nothing about viruses. How to kill them is your job as researchers. My job is to eliminate the culprit that encouraged the virus to evolve."
"Cheers to a bright future."
