Two days passed in this way, and the fog period arrived precisely at the same time as in her previous life. Li Yao went out of the [Spirit Spring Space], opened the [Teleportation Gate] on the open wasteland outside the community, and did not go out. Wearing a spacesuit, she used [Space Conversion] to collect a bottle of fog with a gas collection bottle. After returning to her small house in the Northwest County, she handed it to Da Zhuang to have it analyzed.
Dazhuang has updated all the current scientific and technological information, so testing some gases is no problem for him.
They were busy until the afternoon when the results came out: the fog contained two active, unknown substances. Once these two substances entered the human body or animals and plants, they would fight like they were fighting for territory. If the beneficial substance won, the human body or animals and plants would awaken superpowers; otherwise, the human body or animals would die and turn into zombies.
Even if you don't come into contact with fog, such as in the air at home, this substance is present, but in very low concentrations. Once it enters the human body, it will be killed by the body's immune cells, so people at home are generally fine, unless they are elderly, weak, sick, or disabled and have no immune system.
The same thing happened in her previous life, but Li Yao didn't plan to inform the country. For some people, the fog was actually an opportunity that could grant them superpowers. Survival of the fittest meant that even if the country was informed, they would still actively rescue them, much like now. Those destined to become zombies would still become zombies. After all, the country had so many scientists, and Li Yao didn't believe that no one could reach such a conclusion. Moreover, from an observer's perspective, Li Yao also discovered from the original owner's memories that once the fog period ended in her previous life, the country began to establish bases throughout the country, calling on the public to fight against zombies together. So it was clear that the country reacted quickly and was well-prepared.
Never look down on others just because you have some power. People can be reborn, but your mind and perspective remain the same as before. Unless you use this power to improve and gain experience later, you will still have the same mindset as before.
Therefore, Li Yao did not intend to do anything unnecessary. Perhaps some people who read novels always think that the apocalypse might lead to the extinction of the human race, with no one surviving. But Li Yao had been to so many countries’ high-level laboratories to exploit resources and had also hacked into the secrets of various countries with the system in the past year. She felt that top scientific research had already reached another level, but it just could not be popularized. Besides, with so many novels and movies about apocalypse and zombies, do you really think that the country has not considered this point in its plans for extreme disasters?
The so-called "what can be made public" are all the things that have been eliminated. Many technologies are made public because of technological innovation. Moreover, this is a competition and elimination tournament for all mankind. Li Yao is not so arrogant as to think that she can be the savior just because she has a system. So let the people's future be left to the people themselves. She will be responsible for upgrading and wandering the world. The imprint of being a corporate slave in her previous life is too deep. Doing work is impossible. No one can make her do any work.
Today, Li Yao had nothing else to do, so she planned to go to the Flag Country to let the little creatures roam free. She would release them all, collect the marks of those with superpowers, and keep the zombies in captivity to raise them. Once they leveled up, she would use [Spatial Cutting] to extract their crystal cores.
For some unknown reason, zombies can evolve. Level 1 zombies are slow-moving and attracted by the smell of blood and sound. Level 2 zombies are agile and no different from ordinary people, but they begin to have transparent, rice-grain-sized crystal cores. Level 3 zombies can awaken superpowers, equivalent to Level 1 human superpowers, and also have natural elemental and mutated superpowers. Their crystal cores are the size of peanuts. Level 4 zombies follow the same pattern. And the crystal cores can allow human superpower users to upgrade their superpowers.
Li Yao learned from the original owner's memories that six months after the base was built in her previous life, level three zombies appeared. This information was compiled into a must-read manual for propaganda purposes. The manual also contained information such as zombie abilities, paper maps of the cities and counties surrounding the base, a list of recyclable resources, self-rescue tips, and ability upgrades. It was clear that the country had been actively urging the public to save themselves.
Li Yao opened the [Teleportation Gate] in the Grand Canyon of Colorado in the Flag Country.
The Colorado River has carved 19 major canyons into the Colorado Plateau, covering a total area of 2,724.7 square kilometers. The deepest, widest, and longest of these is the Grand Canyon. At 446 kilometers long, it is one of the longest canyons in the world. The canyon's width at the top ranges from 6 to 28 kilometers, and its deepest point reaches 1,800 meters. The water surface at the bottom is less than 1,000 meters wide, but in summer, meltwater from glaciers increases the depth to 18 meters. The rocks are predominantly red.
Li Yao chose a high vantage point, put on her spacesuit, and walked out through the [teleportation portal]. After draining the water from the valley, she released everyone. The canyon is 446 kilometers long and can easily accommodate more than 100 million people. Moreover, those who came out of the [infinite space] are all idiots; at most, they will run around randomly, and there will be no other problems.
Li Yao earned 127,098,954 points.
Once everyone was released, the valley was instantly filled with a dense crowd. Although the mist obscured the view, Li Yao could still hear many sounds of crying and laughing through her senses.
After putting them down, Li Yao didn't bother with them anymore. After all, this place was deserted and surrounded by river valleys, so they could only run around aimlessly along the river. She planned to come back in three days to see if anyone had awakened any special abilities, and then she flashed back to the [Spirit Spring Space].
