"We have to leave … but we can't leave …"
"But don't worry, we'll find a way soon …"
Surrounded by the flashing plant creatures … the exhibition hall was still standing in its original position.
The people in the exhibition hall were not in a good mood, because they had just received a piece of news.
That was … they could not leave this place.
The announcement said that there was a 'technical problem' and that it was currently under repair. This caused many visitors to be dissatisfied, and they were all very agitated.
The owner of the exhibition hall who had just passed through … was in an even worse mood than the visitors.
That was because they knew the specific details of the matter.
"This plague … cannot be allowed to spread to Ershi."
This was … the manager's office. The owner of the exhibition hall and a large group of staff, as well as Lin and Bilu, were all here.
Their expressions were very ugly, because they had just learned a lot of things, mainly about …
The matter of the 'Frost Plague'.
Lin was currently looking at a 3D screen on the wall. The screen displayed detailed information … information regarding the plague.
Zombie Clan Bacteria, a microorganism with the ability to transform, was temporarily given such a name.
Depending on the individual, it would take several days for them to transform Ershi Min into a zombie.
From the moment they invaded Ershi Min's body, they had been working non-stop … and that was to remove the water in the cells. These zombies would establish a 'pipeline' in Ershi Min's body that led directly to the surface of the skin. The 'pipeline' would continuously extract the water in Ershi Min's body and expel it out of the body.
The Corpse Clan bacteria would also quickly devour every cell. They would squeeze out almost all the water in the cells and store the remaining … part of it.
Initially, they would break down the digestive organs, the muscles of the hands and feet, and then slowly extend upwards, and finally reach the brain.
During this process, Ershi Min's body would rapidly shrink, but it was not dead yet.
After completely breaking down the brain, they would begin to break down the bones. At this time, they would use the materials obtained from breaking down the cells.
The zombies would use the cell materials to … mix with their own body, and while breaking down the bones, they would also form new bones. In the end, these new bones would completely replace Ershi Min's original bones.
At the same time, the zombies would also mix some special substances into the skin and the small amount of meat that was completely dried up.
This would make Ershi Min's body tougher, at least it would not become brittle in the extreme environment of the Frost Plague …
At this time, Ershi Min would almost become a complete zombie.
Sometimes, the infected Ershi people would not shrink. They would create new skeletons that were the same size as the original. This was why it was possible to see Undead Tribe members that were about the same size as the adult Ershi people.
But … what were zombies?
In this state, Lin's state, Lin could only observe and study to study them.
They had a lot of the zombies of the Frost Plague, which was to say, they had many legs Ershi Ershi, which allowed them to move to quickly and capture't to't.
Ershi Ershi't't't't't't't ''t,'t't't't't's.
Ershi't ''s Ershi't't't't''t't of't..
. '' Lin's main concern was this. After completely transforming into a zombie, Ershi Min did not have any zombies on its body.
This was because the zombies formed its new bones, and at the same time, a new … but simple brain was formed in its brain.
This brain was a bit like a mechanical computing system, it could control the entire skeleton, but it had almost no intelligence to speak of.
Zombies also had … digestive systems.
Lin found that they could eat Ershi Min, and they could also obtain nutrients from the local minerals.
That was all Lin knew for now.
Where did the zombies come from? Were they a local species? Or something else? Why were they especially infected with Ershi Min?
If they were the original species, it was almost impossible for them to have the ability to deal with Ershi Min. The Ershi Min had not been in the Frost Plague for long.
So, these creatures should be a very special species.
They purposely infected Ershi Min, and turned Ershi Min into zombies.
They had even destroyed all the research stations … and the research group's base.
Not long ago, the exhibition hall's team, Lin and Beeru had already visited every research group's base.
Almost nothing was left of these bases, and there were no residents inside. They were either empty, or full of scars and scattered items, leaving behind countless traces of attacks.
The only thing they found in these bases was some research reports on the zombies.
That was why Lin could now see the details of the zombies' transformation.
There were also some reports that mentioned … dream energy.
Dream energy was mainly produced when the zombies decomposed the Ershi Min's brain, the reason for its production was still unknown.
The zombies would use this energy to interfere with the Ershi Min. Previously, there had been a few errors in the system, and Beeru's abnormal mental state had been caused by dream energy.
But … generally speaking, the zombies had no direct connection with dream energy, they were not dream creatures.
Because all the bases here had been destroyed, the exhibition hall had no way of contacting the research group, and they could not return to Ershi.
It was not only because the teleportation device could not be activated … it was because it could only teleport between two locations, but it could not obtain a signal from the other location.
So … it could not be moved.
Another thing was that traces of the zombies were found around the exhibition hall.
What the boss was worried about was that if he moved back to Ershi now, would he bring the Corpse Clan's fungi back there?
If that happened in Ershi, it would be very troublesome.
"What should we do now? The people outside are getting more and more uneasy! "
At this time, an employee ran in from the entrance and said, "We still can't move?"
"It hasn't been fixed yet," the boss said, "and we can't just go back so casually."
"Everyone." The boss continued, "Obviously, something very serious has happened in this world, but this is also good, we … will deal with this situation."
"What?" "What do you mean we will deal with it?" "But we have nothing now!"
The Ershi Min around them were shocked. The boss said, "This is what our research group needs to do, to protect our race."
"These creatures are a great threat to us, we must defeat them, even if we can't, we must trap them here!"
"For our home, we must do this!"
