Chapter 329 Diving Mystery
"There's zombie blood in this meat," the woman said while struggling.
Lin Xi understood that although the chance of a mutant turning into a zombie after being bitten by a zombie was very low, if they consumed food with high zombie virus content for a long time, coupled with the stimulation of stardust, the quantitative change would lead to a qualitative change.
"So who told you to do this?"
"It's... a mysterious man with black wings. He promised me that he would help me activate my superpowers after the task is accomplished." The woman said in pain, her neck red.
She hadn't thought things would be so serious. She had just wanted to teach those who looked down on her a lesson, but they all turned into zombies. Fortunately, she hid in the chimney in time.
Whenever I think about it, I feel scared and regretful.
After getting the answer he wanted, Lin Xi did not loosen the lightning chains on her body, but let her fend for herself.
Now all the psychics in the base have turned into zombies, but he feels that things are not that simple. The sky city must be brewing a bigger conspiracy.
Inside the RV, Luo Yunjin was making milk tea when the tabby boy suddenly started the RV.
He took off directly into the air.
From the waters around the island crawled out humanoid zombie monsters covered in black, with tails and horns, crawling shallowly on the beach.
Seeing the RV in the air, several monsters looked up, then opened their big black mouths and roared loudly with a voice of 50,000 decibels.
Even though the RV had good sound insulation, Luo Yunjin could still hear the tearing and throat-racking noise.
They crawled towards the base. Several monsters climbed into a high mountain and dragged out several survivors who had been hiding in the cave. These psychics were soon eaten by a group of monsters, and not even a bone was left.
Luo Yunjin was shocked to see that they had eaten all the blood-stained soil.
It made my scalp tingle just watching. I wanted to help, but this group of monsters devoured more than a dozen strong men in just a few seconds.
She asked the tabby boy to drive to find Lin Xi quickly.
Those zombie monsters were like locusts invading the country. They ate up all the fences outside the base and rushed directly into the base, heading straight for the wooden building where all the zombies were trapped.
Luo Yunjin thought they were going to rescue the zombies, but they just broke open the door, grabbed a zombie and dragged it out, eating them clean like bullfrogs.
The tabby boy shuddered.
Lin Xi searched the entire base and found no other suspicious places. Just as he was about to lift the lid of the white shed, he heard Luo Yunjin's cry.
Then he was tied up around the narrow waist by the vines of the mutant orange tree and was forcibly pulled onto the flying car.
Lin Xi also took this opportunity to see the black monsters not far away. They were sticking out long tongues and their deep red eyes were extremely bloodthirsty.
"All the zombies in the base were eaten by them." Luo Yunjin said in panic.
There are many high-level psychics who have transformed into zombies. These monsters do not have any symptoms of indigestion after eating them. Instead, they become stronger and stronger. The evolved claws are extremely ferocious. With just a light claw, the wooden house becomes a ruin.
The woman tied up in the kitchen screamed and was also eaten by the monster.
But they ignored the RV flying in the sky, and rushed towards the greenhouse, eating up all the crops grown in the greenhouse. They were like ruthless robbers, and the entire base was looted.
Everything that contained life was eaten by them.
Luo Yunjin even had some suspicions that the many people with superpowers who turned into zombies before were just a cover, and the ultimate goal was to nourish these monsters.
The energy they obtain from devouring zombies is stronger than that from devouring humans. The monsters that have just eaten zombies have now been purified into a more terrifying appearance, with scales growing on their bodies.
Luo Yunjin felt that this place was more and more weird.
Thinking back to when they had eaten barbecue and various fruits given by the people at this base, her little face turned pale.
I quickly grew a few recovery fruits and everyone in the car ate one to comfort themselves.
She even threw away all the seeds she had grown before. When she heard Lin Xi say that everyone in the base had eaten pickled meat soaked in zombie blood, she began to suspect that these seeds were also related to zombies.
Once these monsters are killed by lightning, other monsters will come forward to devour them. After they devour each other, their evolution speed will become faster.
When a pair of black wings grow on the monster's back, its evolution is complete.
It is a more powerful monster than the birdmen seen before. It has human form but the scales on its body are extremely sharp and shining. It can fly, and its maximum flying speed exceeds that of a flying car.
Because in the blink of an eye, Luo Yunjin saw one of the scaly birdmen fly to the RV and try to hit it with its tail.
Luo Yunjin hid himself and his car directly into the space.
"I see. That city in the sky must be creating even more powerful birdmen!" Luo Yunjin slammed his hand on the table. "Who on earth is doing this?"
Lin Xi had just calculated that the ability of this scaly birdman was equivalent to that of an ordinary second-level star-level mutant.
If these birdmen continue to evolve, the consequences will be unimaginable.
There are not many star-level mutants on the entire Blue Star now.
Will the world be occupied by such monsters in the future?
The space is filled with the fragrance of fruits and the gurgling of springs. Although the sky is gloomy, this place can make people feel relaxed and peaceful.
"What do you think about us just letting Qi Chi place a timed cannonball on the hot air balloon to blow up the city in the sky?" Luo Yunjin said whimsically, supporting his cheeks with his hands.
"I'm not sure what force is over there. Since they can create zombies, there must be people with abilities higher than star level." Lin Xi took out a small notebook from his trouser pocket.
We must not allow them to continue conducting experiments, otherwise the human race will become extinct.
Not many forces know about the Sky City now, which means that its owner does not want to reveal his identity for the time being. Moreover, they do not look for a base on land to conduct experiments, but choose these isolated islands.
They must still be somewhat wary of the high-level psychics on land, or they may have other conspiracies and have no intention of launching a large-scale invasion for the time being.
The monsters we encountered today crawled out of the sea and hid in the sea. Maybe there is a base camp of these monsters or the source of the continuous creation of these monsters on the seabed.
Lin Xi wrote down all his thoughts in a small notebook. Luo Yunjin watched seriously from the side, nodding from time to time, pretending to understand.
"So are we going to dive?" Luo Yunjin raised her little hand and asked. The RV modified by Qi Chi is fully functional and also has the function of a submarine.
"Yes, follow those monsters to see where they are hiding."
From the beginning to the end, people's focus has been on the zombies on land, and they never seem to pay attention to the possible threats in the black sea.
Luo Yunjin released the flying car out of the space. At this time, all the monsters on the island disappeared, as if they had never been there. Only a ruined base remained.
Following the traces of the monsters crawling, it can be seen that they did not choose to fly away, but crawled back into the sea.
After turning on the RV's diving function, a transparent metal protective cover appears outside the RV, and the wheels automatically reorganize into drain valves and turbines.
After the RV dives into the seabed, a gray world can be seen outside the surrounding glass windows, and occasionally zombie fish with sharp teeth swim by.
The deeper the RV dives, the lighter the color of the surrounding water becomes, until it turns completely blue.
The sea water a hundred meters below is actually blue.
Like a clear dividing line, the density of the two colors of sea water is slightly different.
There are many microorganisms floating in the water, as well as some strange-looking mutant fish.
A small shrimp was eaten by a small goldfish, the small goldfish was eaten by a big lobster, the big lobster was eaten by a mutant crab, and the crab was eaten by a big turtle...
There are many magical biospheres here. The zombie fish seem to be afraid to cross the dividing line. Above one hundred meters there are zombie fish, and below one hundred meters there are ordinary mutant fish and mutant seaweed.
Many mutant fish and shrimps were wandering around the huge RV.
The RV continued to dive, preparing to reach the deepest point.
Bubbles appeared in the water, and the deeper they went, the more mutated fish there were, until they approached the seabed of this sea area. The equipment on the RV showed that they were 1,300 meters below the sea.
There was still no sign of the monster, but there were many shipwrecks sunk on the seabed, and many mutated small fish were swimming among the broken planks.
"It's magical here. I didn't know the seabed is like this. I wonder if there is an underwater base." Luo Yunjin felt that this place was very suitable for human life. There was no shortage of supplies, and plants could grow normally here, which meant that the soil on the seabed had not yet been contaminated by the zombie virus.
The little tiger was lying in front of the glass window, staring at the various mutated fish outside in a daze, with crystal saliva flowing from the corners of his mouth.
The leopard cat was also lying on the window next to the sofa.
The two greedy cats forgot about the fish to satisfy their hunger, even though they had obviously eaten a lot in the morning.
After passing through several coral reefs, there are many black rocks not far away. Many scaly monsters are attached to the rocks. If you don’t look carefully, you might think they are just rocks.
There are densely packed together, they seem to be resting, and bubbles are coming out of the tip of their noses.
Luo Yunjin got goosebumps all over his body.
The small fish and shrimp swam past the monster without any reaction.
But when the RV passed by, several monsters raised their heads, looked at the RV with cold red eyes, then stood up and started chasing it.
The wings behind them act as fish tails, and their marching speed is no slower than that of an RV.
But being in water also limits their capabilities.
Lin Xi simply circled an area of water and released lightning. Immediately, several monsters were hit, knocked unconscious, and slowly floated up with their bellies limp.
The small fish and shrimps all actively avoided these monsters, as if they knew they were dangerous.
Lin Xi drove the car back to the sea in one go.
The stunned monsters were floating on the sea. Some of them were still conscious, staring at the RV with extremely ferocious eyes, and the sharp yellow teeth in their mouths rubbed against each other, making a squeaking sound.
Keeping these monsters would definitely be a nuisance, so Lin Xi electrocuted them all into ashes.
Their crystal cores are of strange colors, colorful, but have a very plastic texture, as if they can be easily broken with a hammer.
Luo Yunjin put all of them into a separate box and prepared to take it back to let Qi Chi see what was special about this crystal core.
After all the monsters in the sea were wiped out, many bird people in the sky city 20,000 meters above the ground became anxious.
Normally, every two weeks, a new birdman would fly to the sky city, but not today.
Moreover, several waves of birdmen sent out before have disappeared and have not returned.
Every birdman in the sky city is hard-earned. Without the birdman's crystal core to support the sky city and maintain wind energy, the entire city will slowly fall until it lands completely on the ground.
"The next island is still an uninhabited island." Luo Yunjin flipped through the notebook given by Ji Yuejiang. When the sea level rose before, many small islands sank into the sea. Therefore, even if the sea level is falling now, there is still no grass on the island and all living things are dead.
There are many such uninhabited islands in the ocean today.
Near this sea area with numerous uninhabited islands, there are also many uninhabited bases anchored on the sea. These small bases are deep in the seabed and supported by steel bars, but they are still rotten at this time. The bases are crooked and collapsed, as if they can be washed down by the sea water at any time.
According to the notes, there are many such base stations. Ji Yuejiang, Tan Shengting and others have also landed on some base stations and found a lot of supplies on them.
The uninhabited island here is even more desolate than the ones we encountered before. It is visibly desolate. There are no plants at all, it is bare, and the beach has been dyed dark brown by the black sea water.
It's very depressing to watch.
The RV traveled through one uninhabited island after another, but did not find any signs of life.
This is an abandoned sea.
They never got out of the car and ate three meals a day in the RV.
In the evening, Luo Yunjin made a casserole hotpot. Ingredients included fresh vegetables grown in the space, luncheon meat and ham that had been stored for a long time, as well as tofu skin and bean curd made by Xiao Choujue.
Although there is no meat, it is still very delicious.
The staple food is rice noodles with pickled cabbage and minced pork. The pickled cabbage and minced pork sauce has been prepared long ago and kept in the refrigerator. Half a bottle of sauce is poured directly into a pot of rice noodles. The minced meat inside is all the pork raised by the little tiger on the stone.
Although the tabby cat's special ability is to turn into a pig, it does not seem to be averse to eating pork.
The dessert after the meal was ice bread, which was made by Luo Yunjin himself and filled with fruit-flavored vegetable cream.
The sea and sky were pitch black at night, and it was almost impossible to distinguish the land ahead. It was like wandering in a void of space.
There was only the light from the RV lights.
The sound of rolling sea water could be heard as Lin Xi and the two cats took turns driving.
Since they didn't find a suitable island, they didn't plan to stay on the uninhabited island, but instead hurried on their journey.
Finally, after driving for two days and two nights, they approached a coastline. They could see collapsed buildings behind the coast. The houses here were very tall, and there were zombies marching on the streets around the coast.
A handsome blond zombie was holding an arm and gnawing on it. His face was covered in blood. His face was intact, but his abdominal muscles were rotten. Four of the original six abdominal muscles had rotted away, leaving only two.
I haven't seen fresh zombies for a long time.
It is obvious that the population of this city near the coast is very small, but it seems that most of the buildings are well preserved. Perhaps the survivors here have turned into zombies or fled far away, just like the previous sea city.
However, most of the houses were soaked by the previously rising sea water, and black water stains could be seen on the walls.
