Rebirth of the Zombie Age

Chapter 5

There were more or less zombies wandering around on the first three floors, Xu Hao didn't choose those floors as the starting point, but continued to walk up.

He didn't stop until he reached the 8th floor.In fact, the fourth floor and above were already filled with empty rooms, but to be on the safe side, he chose this floor.

When the target caught up with the pace and reappeared in his sight, Xu Hao opened a door, glanced at it provocatively, and then stepped into the room.

The remnant consciousness of this primordial obviously still understands the meaning of this look, its eyes gleamed fiercely, its mouth bared its teeth, it has endured it for a long time, and no prey has dared to be so presumptuous in front of it, if it wasn't for Xu Hao's faint Something that attracts it, afraid that others of the same kind will snatch it, it has already done it!

It let out an excited and low muffled sound of "Ho Ho Ho Ho" from its throat, quickened its pace, and entered the wide open door.

However, the next development was somewhat beyond its expectation. As soon as it entered the room, a strong wind came from the side. It was completely unprepared, and it was kicked to the ground in an instant.

Afterwards, the door was closed by Xu Hao.

Looking at Xu Hao who was staring at him with a ferocious smile, he was lying on the ground, shaking his head, his little head was a bit puzzled, shouldn't the prey in front of him be frightened when he saw him? Why did he dare to resist? Own?

It couldn't figure it out, so it stopped thinking, it struggled to get up, anyway, this little attack couldn't cause any harm to it at all.

But it was less than a second to prop up its right arm, and the next moment, its body fell heavily on the ground again.It looked a little confused, and didn't understand what happened. When it tried to get up again, its right arm could no longer support it.It wasn't until the sight shifted to its own arm, through the blurred vision, that it saw that the arm was hanging limply on the arm, and it had been broken.

Although it didn't feel pain, the instinctive anger immediately made it growl.It exposed its blackened fangs, and made a "hohohoho" sound from its shriveled mouth. While threatening Xu Hao, it tried to get up again with its remaining hands and feet.

However, Xu Hao couldn't do what it wanted, the baton in his hand mercilessly swung down again and again, breaking its limbs respectively.

The sound of bones "cracking" could be heard clearly, because the flesh and blood were rotting, and the broken bones pierced through the skin and exposed, and thick black blood flowed to the ground, which seemed to be extremely painful.

Ordinary people would have passed out long ago if they suffered such trauma, but zombies would not.Research on them in previous lives has long proved that the pain-sensing nerves of zombies have long since shrunk and lost their function, and only the motor nerves connected to the cerebellum and part of the sensory nerves remain in the whole body.

Motor nerves allow them to still move, and sensory nerves allow them to spot prey.

The same is true for primordial species.

Although the limbs of the zombie in front of him were severed, its roar was not because of pain, but because of the anger that it couldn't get the food right in front of it.The hunger in the body made it keep trying to bite Xu Hao, but it kept opening and closing its upper and lower jaws, but it could only bite the air in vain, making a "bang bang bang" sound.

Xu Hao went around behind it, squatted down, held down its head firmly with his left hand, pulled out a knife with his right hand, pulled the collar of the zombie's neck, and pointed the tip of the knife at the place where the spine connected to the head, and stabbed it lightly. Go in, then swipe down.

The infection of the virus, coupled with the cessation of various circulations in the body, made the muscles on the zombie's body gray and dull, like pork that had passed the expiration date, showing a sick appearance.

Turning over the cut part, along the cervical spine, Xu Hao stared intently at the top lump of flesh and blood, and kept pulling the knife in his hand to separate the flesh and blood.

The zombie under him became more and more frantic, and the howling sound echoed in the room, as if it also realized that this was a matter of life and death.

But this is just a futile move. It has already been led up to the 8th floor by Xu Hao. It is really far away from the zombies below. Through the door and the heavy ceiling, even if the sound can reach the bottom, it is a weak sound, and it will soon be gone. Overwhelmed by the screams and wails of the living and the roars of other zombies.

In addition, its limbs were all broken by Xu Hao, and its head was still pinned down on the ground, unable to resist at all.

It squirmed its body vigorously, trying to get rid of Xu Hao's control, but it didn't work at all.

Not long after, Xu Hao's eyes lit up, he had already found what he needed.At the top of the spine, a transparent crystal the size of a grain of rice appeared in front of Xu Hao after pulling away the heavy muscles.

The howling of the zombie became more ferocious, and Xu Hao felt like he was about to be unable to suppress it as he kept twisting and turning.

He hastily reached out and took out the crystal.As the crystals and the flesh were separated, the zombie's struggle became weaker and weaker, and finally stopped completely.

Its head was twisted, its mouth was wide open, and its body was rigid.From its eyes, there is no longer any look, and even the most basic desire for living people has disappeared, and the dead can no longer die.

However, Xu Hao didn't look at it at all. He looked at the crystal in his hand with an excited expression, and even his body shook slightly involuntarily.

Although this crystal is small, its preciousness is like the rareness of diamonds to human beings in peacetime.

Two years after the doomsday erupted, scientists became very interested in the brain of the zombie whose body mechanism was dead but survived. They conducted a large number of research experiments on the zombies captured by the army.

However, the reason was not found. On the contrary, a young assistant named Holm found a transparent crystal on the top of the spine of a zombie.

They were so amazed by this discovery that they cut open the cervical vertebrae of the rest of the zombies one after another, but only found a few of the same crystals among hundreds of zombies.

Through various material analysis methods such as microscopic spectrum, infrared scanning, and X-ray diffraction, this crystal has been confirmed to be an energy crystal produced by the interaction between the virus and the host.

Researchers soon discovered that this crystal can not only act as a new energy source, but also strengthen human bones and greatly increase muscle toughness.They named it the nucleus because it is located at the top of the spine where it connects to the brain.

This result made them ecstatic. After capturing hundreds of zombies again, they discovered to their despair that this crystal seemed to only exist in the first-born species, and the low-level ordinary zombies did not find any at all.

They even spent a lot of money to capture a small number of sleepy species and two abnormal species, and there is still no sign of crystals in the cranial cavity.

This really made them a little discouraged, because at that time there were not many nascent species, and most of them had grown into sleepy species, which meant that this kind of crystals could not be produced in large quantities.

But now, Xu Hao smiled, the apocalypse has just erupted, the number of newborn species will definitely increase, and he has enough time to collect more nucleus crystals.

Rubbing off the remaining dirty blood with his hands, Xu Hao swallowed it.Soon, a tingling sensation came from the body, and the strengthening of the bones by the nuclear crystal had already begun.

At this time, he calmed down and said coldly: "Come out by yourself."
