MTL - Reborn To The Start Of The Apocalypse To Farm-Chapter 190 sleeping
The largest base near T city became busy again not long after the heavy snow had just turned small. The ordinary residents in the base were busy clearing the snow on the streets, collecting the snow on the roof and other places and storing it for future use. drinking water.
The high-level executives are busy with other things. They are busy discussing the various possibilities of mutations in the city. possibility.
People who had gone out to perform tasks before and were still waiting for the results of the medical examination when they reported were also released one after another. Almost everyone who had gone out to perform tasks was interrogated individually to confirm all the details of everyone's experience during this time out.
It is not a shocking topic that zombies with commanding ability may appear in cities and zombie groups. After all, some people in the base have already speculated on this as early as the beginning of this year. Now it just proves from the side that this possibility really exists.
In fact, most of the base executives are aware of the mutation of the mutated animals, because although the number of photos they can receive from the satellite is greatly reduced, it is not completely absent. Among the photos received, the huge and exaggeratedly mutated animals reported by the soldiers on this mission are not an exception. It's just that there were no obvious huge mutated animals near T city before, so the higher-ups didn't announce it to the people below.
No, there are actually some, but the distribution of those creatures is still some distance away from the base, and they rarely wander nearby, which is why the base didn't pay attention to them. However, information related to it has been circulating among ordinary survivors.
In addition to the mutated animals and the sudden appearance of intelligent zombies, there is another major suspicious point that has attracted much attention this time-the three people who did not go out to fight at all, but accidentally turned into zombies.
Although the reason why those three people suddenly mutated into zombies might really be because of physical reasons that caused the three of them to die suddenly and then turned into zombies. But the problem is that those three people have a commonality in other aspects, a commonality that makes all those who know at this time feel trembling after knowing it...
After the first round of inquiries, the head of the base looked extremely ugly looking at the possibility on the table that had just been discussed by the senior officials of several scientific research departments. He picked up the report several times and put it down again, then got up and walked around the seat with his hands behind his back, before looking at the people sitting on the sofa: "How big do you think this possibility is?"
One of the men with glasses as thick as the bottom of a bottle raised his hand and scratched his messy hair, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice after hearing the words: "Follow-up observations and more data are needed, anyway, now... detectable With so many targets, it is estimated that the results will be obtained soon.”
After hearing his words, the chief's face twitched a few times, and even his eyelids seemed to twitch twice. After taking a deep breath, he looked down at the data in front of him: "...Those three people are all very capable in this mission. For those with supernatural powers, their body temperature dropped to about 30 degrees or even lower when they left the base... If you follow your inference, we humans don’t have to wait for our own natural death, or our body temperature will automatically drop to zero. Turning into a zombie, when everyone's body temperature drops below 30 degrees, they can all turn into zombies, right? What the **** is this kidding!"
There was silence in the room, and the few people who raised this possibility were also silent.
"Forget it...forget it, just do as you said, go and test the group of people with the lowest body temperature now, maybe... maybe it's just a coincidence." A drop in body temperature is nothing, and turning into a zombie after death is nothing. It’s nothing, but from the previous thought that “humans will die naturally when their body temperature drops to 0 degrees” to the current “humans will turn into zombies when their body temperature drops to 30 degrees”... It’s as if a doctor suddenly treats a terminally ill Patients announce that their condition is deteriorating again and that they are about to die.
You know, the body temperature of the whole people is slowly dropping now! Especially those supernatural beings who are relied on by the base, they have stronger abilities, physical strength, and combat effectiveness. In smaller bases, these people can already be respected as the savior of the base by everyone. But now they tell themselves that these relying on combat power are very likely to be people who will turn into zombies at the first step... This is simply the worst joke that God has played on human beings!
Suddenly, someone outside hurried to the door of the room, and a loud "report" came, interrupting the silence in the room.
"Enter."
A soldier saluted the chief immediately after entering the door, and stood at attention: "Report to the chief, there is news from the Medical Research Department, and let the professors go back immediately."
Several people sitting on the sofa stood up with puzzled faces, and one of them asked, "What happened?"
Xiao Bing didn't know much about the specific situation, so he only said what he knew: "I called just now and said that it seems that the body temperature of two soldiers who went on this mission dropped below 30 degrees..."
"what?!"
"what happened?"
"Which two are they?"
"How are those two people doing now? Are they still alive?!"
It can't be blamed for these people being too emotional, it's just that they were still discussing the possibility of human beings turning into zombies when their body temperature drops below 30 degrees, and now there is an example!
No matter how much training he had received before, Xiaobing couldn't help but take a half step back when faced with a few crazy faces, and replied somewhat stammeringly: "No, I don't know, but..."
Before he finished speaking, several scientists rushed out of the room like the wind, leaving only the soldier and the chief looking at each other.
"Come on, let's go take a look too." The chief put his hands behind his back and said to the adjutant who had been guarding the door all the time. He looked limited on the surface at this time, but his steps were much faster than usual.

There was heavy snow, which lasted for a full week, and the sky gradually cleared up.
Almost the entire north is covered with snow. Even many cities in the south that rarely see snow before the end of the world have not escaped the snow this time. Those urban areas, buildings and farmland that were barren in the past are also covered with Covered with a layer of silvery white.
The snow this time is different from the strange snow that falls four times a year. Although the temperature of those strange snows will drop slightly when it falls, it doesn’t fall much. After the snow fell, the temperature in most places suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees.
Those mutated animals that lost their shelter due to body mutations due to the arrival of the end of the world, after the first year of not knowing what to do, have started to live before this year's winter and before the heavy snow falls. Preparing for winter - just like humans.
Although zombies will take the initiative to fight with mutant animals, because they have different living areas, they have gradually found some balance in the last two years, and they will not easily break this boundary with each other.
Many human bases had various conflicts with the zombies stationed in the city several times after the end of the world. During this period, there were victories and losses. Zombies and humans have something in common, that is, once the number of their groups decreases, they will gradually merge with other scattered groups and act together.
In this way, there will be some "no man's land" in many cities where human beings lived before the end of the world. After leaving completely, the zombies coming from other places will slowly wander back to their usual territory. Once the number of zombies originally entrenched in these places is reduced to a certain number, they will slowly sway to other places and blend into other groups.
Today, these uninhabited and zombie-free lands with many dilapidated houses, after two years of the last days, have begun to be occupied by small mutated animals that wander here and there. Their "nest".
These places are much more practical than letting them build small nests in the wilderness with various materials they found. You must know that there are almost no ordinary plants except aggressive mutant plants. Most of them have become extremely large in size, and the materials needed to build a nest are much more than before the end of the world. It is much easier to live in a house that can be directly moved in than to build it yourself.

City T, after experiencing the attack of the blizzard, the city has once again entered calm. The white snow had accumulated a thick layer. After a week of non-stop snowstorms, the zombies wandering around on the road fell into a deep sleep again. They were covered with thick snow, and almost all the zombies believed that they were still in the "night", and it was still their "sleeping" time.
However, there are still some zombies whose behavior patterns are different from others. In the community where Wei Xuan lived, those snowman "statues" shaped by the wind and snow split open one after another in the early morning of the second day after the snow and ice, and zombies came out staggeringly from inside.
They swayed around, no longer just standing there blankly and paying attention to the house like in the days of heavy snowstorm.
Now they seem to have returned to their usual behavior patterns, swaying and walking around in the community. However, they are heading in the same direction - that is the room where Wei Xuan usually stores some tools.
Zombies are holding relatively clean brooms in their hands and empty buckets on their arms. They wiggle their brooms on the roof of the community and some corners where no one will step on them. The brooms and buckets in their hands, Shove ice and snow into the buckets they carry.
At this time, the brainwaves of the zombie boys are everywhere in the community, and those brainwaves have condensed into the same few words - harvest the snow, harvest the snow, harvest the snow... sleep, sleep, sleep...
