Waste soil

Gently pulling open the tile-shaped gate above the iron cage, a small beast with a slightly triangular head appeared in the center of sight.

This is a giant rat that has just been born not long ago and is still in its juvenile stage. Although it has not yet fully developed, its body length has exceeded 30 cm. According to the animal standards of the old era, it is equivalent to an adult tomcat.

The corporal stretched out his left hand and accurately stuck the giant rat's throat and body. The soldier standing next to him squatted down and took out a vacuum injection of about ten centimeters from his waist. He took off the colloidal cannula and stabbed the sharp and long needle into the right abdomen of the giant rat, and pushed the piston-type tube with his thumb - injecting all the light yellow translucent liquid into it.

The rapidly injected liquid stimulated the giant rat's pupils to expand and contract rapidly. In just five seconds, the small bloodshot spreading densely from the corners of the eyes had turned the eye sockets of the giant rat into bright red, and the shape changed slightly accordingly. It began to become extremely impatient, kicking its feet desperately in the narrow copper cage, grinning and trying to twist its head and bite its hands. The soldier had just pulled out the needle, and the corporal had let go as quickly as possible, closing the horizontal gate of the drawer and pulling open the vertical door that closed the cage. Before it was completely opened, the anxious giant rat had already squeaked and squeaked, jumping between the dead grass and the rocks, and disappeared into the cold wilderness.

This is the twelfth giant rat released in half a month.

They are not products of natural growth in the wilderness, but are obtained from the nest of a female mouse. They have just been born and have been nurtured by humans, and are specially cultivated for aged less than ten months.

All giant rat breeding is carried out in simulated natural environments. The only training they receive is to run towards an eggshell-shaped arched building on the sand table under the guidance of passwords and actions. Using this as a nest, dig soil and build caves.

The significance of training is very obvious - the purpose of the guide is to simply require them to settle near the 24th Domain of Life. As for the future... whether to die or live, it depends entirely on the giant rat's own survival instinct, or the luck of escaping from predators.

Radiation caused many viruses to mutate in the old era. Taking influenza as an example, another state that induces viruses to be transformed into completely different properties. They have strong invasiveness and high mortality rates on humans. However, humans also evolved in an environment full of death. From strong to strong, even without drug treatment, patients can recover after they survive the initial onset period. The probability of real death is no more than 0.36%.

Rand Walker and Liu Yuchen seem to be from two different worlds. In addition to their appearance and personality, the two doctors also have completely different research directions.

Out of hatred for the Knights of the Skeleton and the painful scars of his wife being tortured, Rand Walker often stands completely hostile to humans in biological research. Corpse people, transformed warriors, and controlled simulant cells... If time could go back, Rand Walker would definitely be convicted of crimes against humanity by the International Court of Justice of the Hague. However, in the chaotic and disordered wasteland world, these terrible studies that may lead to death at any time can promote human understanding of biology and even mutation to a certain extent.

, "Typical Influenza Virus." is a type of strain extracted from the rotten wolf. This bacteria can survive in severe radiation environments and its invasion and damage to the human body is six times more than the parent virus. This is not a random guess without any basis. Rand Walker has long used as hundreds of corpses and various known animals as experiments to prove that the powerful power of this little thing cannot be seen by the naked eye.

According to the biological research records of the Joint Doctors Association in the old era, "antibiotic peptide" is actually not an overly advanced research result. This powerful antibiotic extracted from snake venom can completely replace the milestone status of penicillin in the history of human medicine. In particular, the enhanced antimicrobial peptide obtained by Liu Yuchen using mutant plant poisons is excellent in killing mutant viruses. Just like the common plots in old novels and film and television works, whenever there is a hideous and crazy and wild man who wants to destroy the world with some biological weapon, there will always be a polite, handsome and handsome hero who stands up and uses his best research results to crush evil and save the world from the brink of disaster.

The spear and shield were both controlled by Lin Xiang.

The Joint Doctors Association is a powerful group. It is not sensible to confront them head-on. The newly established Longteng Empire does not have enough powerful military forces to fight against it. It is safe to do it. Coupled with the special geographical location of No. 24 Life City and various factors such as the outbreak of wars, Lin Xiang decided to use this place as the source of the initial spread of the virus.

He is not a crazy destructionist, at most he can do anything. Moreover, the number of civilians under the Joint Doctors Association is extremely rare. Ninety-nine percent of the people inside the No. 24 Life City are replicated by artificial proteins. Strictly speaking, they cannot be considered humans at all.

The 6571 base has strong production capacity, and the antibacterial drugs produced fully have been distributed to various cities of the empire. The current reserves can meet the needs of four million people. According to the current progress, it only takes two months at most, and the vaccines produced can be used by all registered civilians in the empire.

The way giant rats spread the virus is very hidden. The young rats received the injection may be eaten by other predators or may be transmitted through polluting water or air. No one will associate large-scale infection with the Longteng Empire. Just like the "**" that once caused social unrest in the old era, Americans never admit that they were spreading viruses on Chinese territory. However, the thing is so strange, the population with suitable viruses only has an effect on Asian genes.

The number of viruses in the wasteland world is large and complex. Even the Joint Doctors Association cannot classify and verify all mutant species in detail. A heavy rain, a strong wind, or even the death of a rotten wolf or a giant rat may cause virus mutation in a radiation environment. This is a world full of variables. Death and survival alternately cycle. Only individuals who can truly survive are the strongest and most test-capable evolutionary paths. All they should do is do. The next step is to wait patiently.

......

According to the map of the old era, there are dense water systems distributed in the empire. The abundant supply of water also makes most parts of the southern part of the territory grow from dense forests. The predatory control of the soil by these mutated plants is no less than the catastrophic effect brought by desert invasion. They have strong root systems, can penetrate nearly a hundred meters underground and absorb nutrients, with branches and leaves with carnivorous habits on the ground, and can freely capture large animals including giant rats. Many plants have toxins, and even if they are cut by mechanical cutting, it is difficult to completely eradicate them. The earth is no longer a world that could be dominated by humans a hundred years ago. Land, oceans, sky, and countless mutated animals and plants trapped in radiation are fighting with humans for survival space. No one can predict what will become in the future. Even if a nuclear war breaks out again between humans, it is impossible to cause

Destruction like the last century. They are much more powerful in adapting to the environment than humans. If all humans die, the future masters may become mice, cockroaches or some kind of alien plants that have evolved from wisdom. After billions of years, they may be transformed into a group of wisdom. As for humans... they can only occasionally read obscure and mysterious words like Atlantis in the records of ancient books. The farming season has arrived, and the warm breath can be felt at any time in the air. Without the support of the army, all cities in the empire were included in control. As many as tens of millions of civilians began to dig and sow on the fields. According to the management committee's prediction, the initial harvest of summer grain should be able to make up for the deficit caused by the distribution of food in winter. At the same time, in the north of the empire, with Yinyue City as the core, crops have also turned to plant beets and oilseeds.

The supply of female salt from eastern coastal cities has stabilized, and the large-scale increase in crops will provide the empire with a lot of sugars and oils. Domestic domestic pigs, double-headed cattle, and big-horned sheep are no longer concentrated in Yinyue City, but are maternal insemination through the 6571 base, and mass production of considerable slacks. If the current stable state continues, eggs, milk, butter and other condoms that were once regarded as treasures will become more ordinary. Several years of large-scale hunting have made

In the wilderness of the northern empire, a huge wild double-headed cattle that once reached hundreds of thousands completely disappeared. With the joint effect, the population of rotten wolf and grassland hyena also began to decrease in a large number. Due to the lack of cattle herds to compete for food for forage, the population of giant rats began to enter an unprecedented intensive breeding. Compared with the cattle herds that are easy to hunt, the short and flexible giant rats have caused more trouble to the farming areas around the city. People have to form hunting teams to chop them. Of course, the delicious and tender rat meat is also very popular among wasteland residents.

Among the empire's territory, Liujin City is a relatively special existence.

The city lord Solomon has sworn allegiance to the emperor, but he still has a certain degree of trade privilege. Using the huge and complex relationship, the empire's food, machinery, cured meat, salt and other commodities produced by the empire began to flow to other distant forces in exchange, including ore, animal fat, burlap, and even various exchange resources, including population, gradually enriching every corner of the empire's need. Especially the dried fish and sea vegetables produced in the eastern coastal areas, which are indeed irresistible for people who are tired of eating light bread and clear porridge and thin soup.

Liujin and Emma have become the largest trading cities in the empire. Luo Jingpeng, who is determined to "black iron furnace." He once wanted to threaten to sever relations and demanded that Lin Xiang increase the trade rating and material aid quota. There was no war as expected. When two small settlements of thousands of people appeared in the northeast of the "black iron furnace" and completely cut off all the connections with the outside world, the residents in the city could no longer bear the torture of lack of food and drinking water, and demanded public merger into the empire. Faced with the negotiating envoy sent by Lin Xiang, Luo Jingpeng could only accept all terms and give up control of the "black iron furnace" at the cost of 800,000 yuan. As for himself, he became an ordinary member of the high-ranking residents of the imperial capital under the arrangement of Lin Xiang.

The two legions of "Extreme Warriors" and "Holy Blood Angels" are still guarding the north and south of the empire respectively. According to the most organized organization passed by Gangzhou," including the "Saurus" stationed on the eastern coast and the white mark directly under Zhou Hao. "All the regular legions of the empire will be expanded into a powerful combat group with 200,000 people.

Of course, with the current strength of the empire, this large-scale expansion is not realistic. The official group led by Blanche is resistant to this. According to the most statistical data of the Management Committee, the empire can currently maintain the maximum 50,000 magnitude of the four major legions. This is already the limit of financial resources and resources. However, Lin Xiangzhouran asked the committee to allocate 6 million imperial currency as support and appoint Zhou Hao to form the imperial guards. As for the position of commander of the "White Brand" legion, Locke took over.

The Northern Family Alliance has been scattered. As support for Heinrich, Lin Xiang gave nearly 20,000 weapons and equipment, as well as a military organization called "Space Wolf". This legion is different from the regular troops. The members are all freely allocated by Heinrich, allowing for external expansion and plunder. The main offensive direction and war plan must obey the unified arrangements of the Imperial Division, but do not provide financial assistance.

Among all the legions, Lin Xiang attaches great importance to it and is also preparing to train him as the absolute main force, the imperial guards that have just been formed.

He did not believe in Wang Biao and Yang Hua. Compared with others in the supreme power circle, Zhou Hao had a kind of admiration and blind belief in the young emperor that others could not match. This belief may be due to his childhood experience, and Lin Xiang also gave him heavy power and cultivated it vigorously.

Hate and anger are the most direct source of power to destroy the world. In addition to the unattainable genius in biology, the transformed soldiers obtained by Sutt Land Walker by strengthening organ functions can obtain powerful power equivalent to two or three-star parasites without mutation. This is a biological improvement that is even more terrifying than the devil, especially when obtaining Lin Xiang's blood samples as the basis for research, Land Walker successfully fuses the transformed individual and the mutated blood. In the end, he obtained an evolutionary transformed life form that is different from the ordinary form.

Land Walker uses ancient Roman numbers, "φ" and "φφ" as the distinction category between the two modified models. Compared with the old "Guang" model, using Lin Xiang to dilute blood as a mixed "φφ" modified body, the combat effectiveness has not been improved. However, they have survival genes that are stronger than the old models. Organ transformation is only a means of strengthening after all, and cell regeneration and medium composition have not changed at all. From a biological point of view, Land Walker only strengthens blood supply, oxygen molecule absorption, and strengthens the high calcification of the bones.

The segment allows the transformed objects to gain a multiplier increase in strength than ordinary people. They will eventually age, and Rand Walker cannot perform cell activation surgery on every transformed person. The fusion effect produced by Lin Xiang's blood after dilution can give the cells a nearly eternal continuous division effect. Just drop 0.5 milliliters into the implanted heart, and the normal life limit is about 30 earth years, can have the same long life limit as that of natural mutant individuals. Without breath, this is the biggest secret to transforming people.

According to the organizational standards given by the Management Committee, the Imperial Army can have 50,000 important combat personnel. On this issue, Zhou Hao cooperated with Lin Xiang to play a small trick. They formed a special combat team under the normal organization of the Imperial Army. The officers and soldiers who could be selected were parasites with five-star strength. Except for the earliest indigenous people in Yinyue Town, only those who have received layered reviews and confirmed their loyalty to the emperor themselves and the most fanatical admirers are qualified to accept the pure blood transformation and become one of them. This is exactly what Lin Xiang said.

"I don't need you to be very strong, but you must be absolutely loyal to me. I can give strength, but I can never control the human mind."

The wasteland world is filled with radiation that cannot be seen by the naked eye.

The objects endangered by rays are not just life. Tanks, aircraft, ships... All electronic instruments and machinery made by humans in the old era will be destroyed due to radiation. Due to the inability to use aviation instruments for positioning and auxiliary operations, high-altitude fighter training has been hovering in the ground operation stage, and accidents have occurred frequently. The technological crystallization that humans in the old era are proud of cannot even play 20% of the functions. Based on various factors, Lin Xiang can only try his best to cultivate civilians with scientific and technological memory and modify existing machinery in a way suitable for the wasteland environment. But from the current progress, Kangguo seems not as optimistic as he imagined.

The sunset is slow and dusk.

The morning glow is bright and vigorous.

Lin Xiang can't remember how many times he has stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and admired the golden light on the horizon.

Whether they represent the end or symbolize the beginning of the times, they are so brilliant and radiant.

What should be lost cannot be kept.

No one can stop what should be reborn.

The earth is constantly turning, and every second of the scraping passes will become history.
