Half an hour later.

Zhou Qiang finally figured out the situation in the settlement.

The reason why they asked this skinny lower-class person for questioning was because she could keep a secret.

If I really ask someone who is well-known, the other party will definitely be suspicious of my background.

But these people at the bottom won’t do that.

Handing the bread and water to the woman, Zhou Qiang just watched her wolf down the food.

A piece of bread and a bottle of water, which the other person finished in one breath.

The woman's thinking and logic were very clear in her narration just now, and she must have received a good education.

"Take care of yourself."

It's fate.

Zhou Qiang hesitated for a moment, but still gave her a few bottles of water and some bread.

The rest depends on her luck.

Zhou Qiang is not a saint, nor does he have a heart of a saint.

There are more than 100,000 people living in the settlement, but almost no one can get enough food and water.

He couldn't help them yet.

It's not a question of food and water, it's a question of power.

The power structure in the settlement is currently complicated. If he dares to cause trouble, those people who have climbed to the top of power in the bloody storm will definitely not easily let Zhou Qiang mess around in the settlement.

There is no order here, only force.

Zhou Qiang currently does not want to expose the current situation of the settlement.

He needs to have more powerful strength before he can take over this settlement.

As for giving women this precious food and water.

joke.

It is precious in the eyes of people in the last days, and in Zhou Qiang's eyes.

A loaf of bread costs a few dollars, a bottle of mineral water costs a few cents, how much does it cost?

After Zhou Qiang finished speaking, he left with the Mammoth bodyguards.

The woman was stunned for a moment, looking in the direction Zhou Qiang left, her eyes filled with hesitation and complexity.

The end of the world is coming.

Humanity began to fall into chaos.

All everyone could do was run for their lives.

Gradually, the survivors gathered together and formed the settlement we have today.

There are zombies all around, and there is no escape in the early stages.

A safe place with other human beings living in it is undoubtedly the most attractive.

People in the entire Tianwei City metropolitan area gradually learned about this place through some means of communication.

At the beginning of the end of the world, there is a guarantee of electricity.

There is also the existence of satellites in the sky.

Communication is not a problem.

A group of three or five people, or a few hundred people.

They all tried their best to escape here.

After several years, the area centered on Tianwei City actually had four settlements.

The population of the four settlements is not much different, and they are named after the east, south, west and north.

The one where Zhou Qiang is is West City.

The virus is spreading rampantly, with a mortality rate of more than one in ten.

Chaos then arose and more people died in this chaos.

The panic in the early days of facing zombies resulted in not many people being able to escape from the city.

The entire metropolitan area of ​​Tianwei City has a population of over 50 million.

Now there are less than 600,000 left.

The survival rate is about one percent.

The four major settlements of human survivors are just a microcosm of this end of the world.

In fact, the world is currently a scattered settlement where humans live.

In the absence of order, the power structure has long disappeared, and each settlement is governed by its own rules.

Driven by ambition, power is constantly changing in each settlement.

Everyone wants to be the one who rules the settlement.

The settlements under the rule of capable people began to develop rapidly.

There are no settlements of outstanding strong people, and the place is in disarray and chaos.

Death happens every day.

It is certain that in the next few years, humans will gradually become stronger, and then mergers of settlements will begin to occur.

A stronger power will be established.

Xicheng, where Zhou Qiang currently lives, is considered a relatively good place to live.

The upper class of the settlement consciously protects the lives of the lower class people so as to guarantee their minimum living needs.

Who doesn't want to rule the world and become the most powerful person?

What is the most powerful force in this world?

Weapons are one.

But the ones who truly dominate this world are the extraordinary ones.

At the end of the world, human survivors went from initially fleeing to gradually gaining control of the power of genetic evolution.

If you want to become a superhuman, you just need to inject genetic fluid.

The genetic fluid comes from zombies.

After the virus fails to transform zombies, it will secrete and transform into genetic fluid.

After humans are injected with genetic fluid, they will gain unimaginable power.

This power can be speed or the skill of bursting out energy strikes.

Extraordinary people can release genetic energy to form powerful attacks.

He truly was able to call the wind and summon the rain.

This kind of people are called extraordinary people.

Whoever has a higher level of evolution will naturally have a larger living space.

And also to be superior to others.

Whoever can become a transcendental person can become a member of the privileged class in this world.

Ordinary people can only be at the bottom of the society.

Useful social status will be slightly higher.

Those who did not have much talent became slaves.

…………

After you have understood the information you need.

Zhou Qiang began to act.

Of course Zhou Qiang wouldn't be so stupid as to believe everything this woman said.

Instead, all they paid was a little bread and water. Using this method, Zhou Qiang asked several survivors in a row, and what they said was almost the same.

Now it can be confirmed that genetic fluid can indeed make people become extraordinary people.

The genetic fluid dug out from the zombies, on the contrary, did not carry any virus.

Zhou Qiang couldn't figure out this question.

The survivors were confused too.

There are nearly 10,000 people who have become extraordinary people in the settlement.

The most powerful one is Zheng Zhan, the leader of the West City settlement.

He completed the evolution of a fourth-level transcendent.

Level four corresponds to the fourth-order zombies, which is absolutely beyond imagination.

Zhou Qiang also learned that in order to hunt down this level 4 mutated zombie, the settlement paid the lives of thousands of extraordinary people.

"It's better to evolve your genes first."

Now that it was confirmed, Zhou Qiang found a house.

A can of fruit made the other party give up the house immediately.

Have the Mammoth Bodyguards guard the door.

Zhou Qiang took out the mammoth's genetic fluid.

Even after confirming it again and again, Zhou Qiang was still nervous when injecting the genetic fluid.

[You should be a more extraordinary existence! ]

[It is recommended to inject the Mammoth Gene and the Swift Gene at the same time! 】

【Become a dual-gene evolver! 】

The sudden prompt sound startled Zhou Qiang.

Zhou Qiang didn't expect the time reminder to appear again.

The prompt sound is more like a guide.

From the time when the zombie manufacturing system was established until now, all the guidance that has appeared has been correct.

If it were someone else's advice, Zhou Qiang would not pay attention.

But I believed the advice of the prompt without hesitation.

Zhou Qiang took out the genetic fluid of the Swift.

Mix the two genetic fluids and then insert them into the blood vessels in the arm.

Slowly inject this tube of mixed gene fluid.

In an instant, Zhou Qiang felt a coolness quickly flowing through his blood vessels.

More than twenty seconds later.

The blood circulates for a week.

Zhou Qiang first felt the coolness.

But this feeling was replaced by a burning sensation in the blink of an eye.

Every cell in my body feels like it's burning.

The feeling was so uncomfortable that Zhou Qiang groaned softly.

fine.

After about ten seconds, everything returned to calm.

The cells in the body seem to be reborn.

A surge of power surged up.

The whole person becomes lighter.

Zhou Qiang was all too familiar with this feeling.

The sense of power when the consciousness shifts to the Mammoth's clone, and the sense of lightness when the consciousness shifts to the Swift.

The surging power made the body feel much lighter.

Zhou Qiang tried to wave his arms.

The power seemed to rush out from every cell, then gathered in the waving arm, and the whole arm turned red.

Before Zhou Qiang understood.

The red arm seemed to emit a red energy ray.

boom!

The walls of the house where Zhou Qiang lived were built with bricks.

The energy ray instantly shattered the brick, turning it into flying debris.

A hole through which people can enter and exit appeared on the wall.

"Is this the energy-focused attack of the extraordinary?"

Zhou Qiang was stunned.

According to the information I heard, a first-level extraordinary person could use this incredible skill.

They named it [Energy Focused Strike].

The power of the concentrated energy strike will be determined by the strength of the individual's genetic evolution.

The higher the level, the greater the striking power.

Generally speaking, extraordinary people can only evolve in one direction.

Or they are extraordinary people whose power is their system.

The second one is a transcendent who relies on speed.

Double gene evolution is very rare.

In fact, many people have tried injecting the two genes together.

But almost everyone who tried died.

Those who survive and succeed are extremely rare, about the same as winning a five million dollar jackpot.

It was only after Zhou Qiang heard the prompt that he dared to try it so boldly.

If you listen to the system, you won’t go wrong.

He threw this punch.

Zhou Qiang felt as if his strength was drained away.

Then the strength in the cells began to recover.

But this kind of recovery is a bit slow.

It seems that [Energy Focused Strike] cannot be used however you want.

The law of conservation of energy in this world is not so easy to break.

Cell recovery consumes a lot of energy.

The consumption of this energy will make people feel hungry easily and need to eat a lot.

"So, what skills will the speed route have?"

The information Zhou Qiang learned.

The extraordinary people who follow the speed evolution path will have the first skill, Gale.

Zhou Qiang walked out of the hole.

The next moment, Zhou Qiang ran wildly.

Zhou Qiang's extremely light body made him feel that even if he competed with the world champion in sprinting, he would not necessarily lose to him.

It can even be said that it is slightly better than him.

"Speed ​​up, speed up again!"

Zhou Qiang began to exert his strength.

Suddenly, a very faint blue light appeared between his legs.

However, with the appearance of these blue halos, a force penetrated his legs, allowing Zhou Qiang to burst out with an abnormal speed.

Just like a car, the turbocharger suddenly kicks in while driving, providing sufficient propulsion.

This force actually increased Zhou Qiang's speed by one-half.

This is the skill [Gas] of those with speed gene evolution.

The feeling of running wildly with incredible lightness is even stronger than that of the Swift.

After all, it is a power that truly belongs to him, far beyond what the Swift's clone can possess.

With the help of [Swift Wind], Zhou Qiang ran with great pleasure.

But this is a settlement.

Zhou Qiang did not drift.

After a short trot, he finally got back to the Mammoth's bodyguards.

Feel the changes in yourself.

Zhou Qiang smiled.

Now he is also a transcendent.

If nothing unexpected happens, Zhou Qiang's advantage is too great.

It is very difficult for the survivors to get a tube of genetic fluid.

There are too many zombies in the city.

They can't possibly come in deep enough to hunt.

But Zhou Qiang does not have this restriction.

With a zombie manufacturing system, Zhou Qiang has a group of zombie minions.

Using numbers, you can pile up and kill high-level zombies.

Became an extraordinary person.

Not only hearing, but also perception becomes sharper.

Zhou Qiang felt that he could smash a bull with one punch.

An unprecedented sense of power filled the body.

Zhou Qiang lifted up his clothes.

Before, Zhou Qiang had almost no muscles to speak of, but now it’s different. When he lifts up his clothes, he can see his eight-pack abs.

Genetic modification has made Zhou Qiang's body extremely strong.

Of course Zhou Qiang was not satisfied with this.

He took out the genetic fluid of the crawler from the storage space.

[It is recommended to mix the Hellhound gene with the Scythe Corpse gene, along with half of the Crawler gene! ]

The prompt sounded again.

Zhou Qiang has the hellhound and crawler genes.

But Zhou Qiang doesn't have the genes of the sickle corpse at all.

In other words, if Zhou Qiang wanted to evolve to a second-level transcendent, he was missing a genetic fluid.

Zhou Qiang is a dual-gene evolver, and his path to evolution is more difficult.

Be careful too.

There are certain risks in injecting different genetic fluids, and since everyone's situation is different, there is really no reference value.

Dual-gene evolvers are strong, but they also have great limitations.

Like now, if there is no prompt, Zhou Qiang's evolutionary path will be disrupted.

Since the genetic fluid of the sickle corpse was missing, Zhou Qiang had to stop.

Didn't force it.

Zhou Qiang is already very happy to be able to become a superhuman.

"Walk!"

At that moment, Zhou Qiang left with the Mammoth bodyguards.

There is a mercenary market in the West City settlement.

It is said to be a mercenary market.

Zhou Qiang prefers to call it a slave market.

Because the people here are simply selling out everything they have.

In order to survive, they abandoned all their dignity.

They are risking their lives for tomorrow.

In the end times, it is difficult to find a job.

If you want to have food to eat, the most direct way is to sell your life and serve as cannon fodder for the extraordinary people.

After a few years, everyone who survived became an excellent fighter.

Becoming a mercenary also gives you the chance to become a transcendent.

This is also the easiest way for ordinary people to rise to the top of the ruling class.

When Zhou Qiang arrived here, he saw a large open space. There were at least a thousand people here.

It's noon now. If it were morning, there would be at least 10,000 people here.

Countless teams will choose the people they need here.

More than a thousand people mostly sat there with a piece of cardboard in front of them with their names and specialties written on it.

Many people brought their own weapons.

From guns to cold weapons.

Although many people looked pale, there was a fierce look in their eyes.

You can tell at first glance that he is not a coward.

A timid person cannot become a mercenary.

Zhou Qiang's appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Zhou Qiang has an ordinary appearance and his fancy clothes are nothing special. What attracts people's attention are the three tall and handsome bodyguards who come with him.

“Boom boom!”

When the Mammoth Bodyguard walks, his steps on the ground bring a heavy impact.

Anyone who knows the goods knows that this is because of its very heavy weight.

This set of armor is very heavy.

There is only one possibility for someone who can wear such heavy armor and still move freely, and that is a transcendent.

With three extraordinary people acting as bodyguards, Zhou Qiang's identity undoubtedly became more prominent in the eyes of everyone.

at this time.

Several sexy women were standing here, showing off their bodies to Zhou Qiang.

They kept throwing seductive glances at Zhou Qiang.
