Rotting Land: Survive-Chapter 368 - 366: Final Modifications and Testing
In this world, some animals with relatively simple structures, even when their brains are completely destroyed, can still rely on nerve-autonomous electrical impulses to control muscle contraction and expansion.
This statement was something Tang Xiaoquan read in a science magazine, and he clearly remembered that the magazine proposed a theory called reflex reflection at that time.
According to this theory, zoologists decapitated a live frog and subjected it to a series of conventional survival tests like flipping, needle pricking, water immersion, and back hitting. However, the results of the experiment were beyond everyone’s expectations.
The headless frog not only successfully completed all the tests like a normal frog, but it also survived for a long time in a headless state.
Similar reactions also occur in species like fruit flies and turtles, so Tang Xiaoquan believed that the attack characteristics of the "Frenzy" have a similarity with this theory.
"Damn it! Having a Zombie Dog is already hard enough to deal with, and now suddenly there’s another one... Frenzy, damn, heavens! How do you expect us to live like this?" With a long sigh towards the sky, Wang Qiang ruffled the hair on top of his head in disbelief.
His complaint undoubtedly also voiced the thoughts of the many Survivors, after all, the current days are already fraught with danger. If such "bizarre and inexplicable" monsters continue to pop up now and then, will humanity even have a chance to start over?
The Survivors had no answer to this.
But one thing was certain, no matter how hard the future might be, no matter how many hardships and obstacles there still are, humanity would persist and live on.
Because they are a high-level species with millions of years of evolutionary experience, they would not and could not be exterminated so easily by "alien creatures."
Life must go on, difficulties must be overcome. After recounting today’s encounters, the Survivors immediately threw themselves into a new task: vehicle modification.
They divided into groups as usual, with the warriors responsible for security, and the remaining members of the third team assisting Wang Zhongyu in installing related Surveillance Devices.
After quickly reviewing the circuit diagrams, Wang Zhongyu deftly started his work.
To ensure the vehicle could record in 360 degrees without dead angles after entering the stadium, Wang Zhongyu planned to install several cameras under the left and right rearview mirrors, behind the internal mirror, and in hidden spots on the rear license plate frame.
All the disassembling, installation, and wiring went smoothly, and Wang Zhongyu truly excelled in this area. Even an "unseeing" Zombie tried to intrude during the process, but without exception, it was blocked outside by warriors standing guard with knives.
The whole installation process took about 40 minutes. In short, by the time Wang Zhongyu tightened the last screw, the setting sun had already dipped below the horizon, leaving only a magnificent sunset painting the skies.
Wiping the sweat from his cheeks with a casual swipe, Wang Zhongyu circled the car once. After ensuring all the cameras were safely hidden, a rare smile appeared on his tense face.
"Well done, brother! If you hadn’t told me the car had surveillance installed, I wouldn’t have noticed!" Wang Qiang lightly patted his compatriot’s shoulder and gave him high praise with his thumb up.
Of course, his praise was not just flattery, but genuinely, it was difficult to notice the presence of the cameras. At least for someone unaware and not examining closely, discovering these hidden "little guys" was indeed not an easy task.
In response, Wang Zhongyu merely smiled because he knew that although the modification work was done, if the actual application was unsuccessful, everything done beforehand would still be in vain.
Therefore, the overall debugging of the surveillance system immediately became a priority on Wang Zhongyu’s agenda.
Similarly, to avoid arousing suspicion from those inside the venue, Wang Zhongyu did not install the standard vehicle-mounted control in its usual place but instead modified it slightly, leading it under the storage box.
By doing so, unless the driver inspects the storage box, it’s almost impossible to find the surveillance equipment.
Upon booting up, with the touch screen’s activation, the 4 cameras duly presented the surrounding scenes on the 5-inch display screen.
Wang Zhongyu carefully adjusted each camera slightly. After ensuring they were all functioning correctly, he also performed a corresponding check on the randomly supplied SD card reader.
After finishing everything, he managed to crawl out of the car somewhat laboriously.
But he hadn’t even had a chance to catch his breath before his companions’ inquiries came one after another.
"How is it? Xiao Wang, is it all settled?" Zhao Yunhai was the first to question.
Wang Zhongyu nodded confidently: "No problem, it’s all set!"
"Does this thing make noise when it operates? Will it be discovered?" Wu Chao asked next, seeming to have some lingering concerns about the device’s concealment.
In response, Wang Zhongyu was full of confidence: "Don’t worry, this thing is a high-end product worth over ten thousand, far from being useless! It makes no noise while operating and even comes with low-light cameras, requiring no additional lighting even at night. Totally green and environmentally friendly, top-notch quality!"
The cheeky assurance brought laughter to Wu Chao. Tang Xiaoquan, however, wasn’t worried about concealment. His attention was entirely focused on: "What about power? Does this thing consume a lot of energy? Can the internal battery support continuous recording for a while?"
Undoubtedly, this question directly influenced the success of future actions, so Wang Zhongyu put away his playful demeanor and replied earnestly: "No worries, we only need to use the car charger to recharge it on the way to the stadium each time."
With that, everyone’s questions were resolved, and thus the Survivors all returned indoors.
Old Zhao personally cooked up a table of food and drinks. Although the rescue prospects were still worrisome, necessary celebrations were still needed.
If for nothing else, then to boost everyone’s morale.
The midnight breeze was gentle, and after a day of scorching sun, the gradually cooling weather brought an indescribable comfort.
Tang Xiaoquan stood alone, leaning against the balcony railing, his eyes fixed on the distant horizon. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
The moon tonight was very full, casting bright moonbeams like ribbons across the dark night, transforming it into a silver ocean.
His hand unconsciously reached into his chest pocket, and a warm, smooth Jade Pendant silently touched Tang Xiaoquan’s palm.
Immediately, his body shook abruptly, and a delicate, charming figure slowly emerged in his mind.
"Wei Yang! Are you well now? I’m really worried about you! Rest assured, no matter what, I will definitely find a way to rescue you!"
His gaze exuded two sharp beams, and Tang Xiaoquan’s right hand tightly clenched the pendant... (To be continued.
