Why do zombies eat people?

For this question, Shen Feng has always been a little confused.

If it is the zombies in the "Resident Evil" movie, it is easy to explain, they bite and eat people mainly to spread viruses.

It is transmitted through body fluids such as saliva and blood, which is also the mode of transmission of certain viruses, such as rabies, AIDS and so on.

Compared with SARS, Ebola virus and other more powerful air droplet-borne viruses, this mode of body fluid transmission is outdated and inefficient, and it is only in movies that the destruction of the whole by biting people occurs. world situation.

It's just that for the evil spirit virus, such a backward transmission method is obviously not needed. After all, the evil spirit virus is completely transmitted through the air.

At that time, the yellow virus spore fog that covered the sky and the sun in the Tokyo epidemic area was simply a layer of hell.

However, after being infected by the evil spirit virus, the zombies still choose to eat people, and they are very fanatical, which is a bit illogical in terms of the virus transmission mechanism.

During the Evil Spirit Virus epidemic and the series of events that followed, Shen Feng was really incapable of doing things, and he forgot to study the reason.

Now is an excellent opportunity, and it meets the requirements of the "True Doomsday Game" system for in-depth investigation.

Thinking of this, Shen Feng found the open kitchen of the apartment, a knife holder and an apron with a cartoon pattern.

It turned out to be a Zwilling knife made in China.

Shen Feng nodded with satisfaction, took these knives, hammers, pliers, tweezers and other things to the zombie's side, put on an apron, gloves, goggles and a mask, ready to start violent dismantling.

About an hour later, Shen Feng took off his apron, which was covered in black and red blood, tore off his goggles and mask, and sat back on the sofa.

On the floor were zombies that had already been dismantled. Shen Feng took out a bottle of water from his backpack and drank half of the bottle in one go. He raised his arm and started typing:

"Investigation:

The skeletal structure showed no abnormality.

Pulmonary fibrosis was evident.

Blood clotting embolism.

The skin appears micro-scaly, and there is a probability of bionic mimicry.

The central nervous system is abnormally developed, and there are obvious variations.

Muscle tissue remains active and has been visually switched to energy mode.

Brain... The brain shrinks and deforms and appears spongy. The whole is in the shape of cocklebur or sea urchin. There is a large amount of starch precipitation structure inside. The core is metal. "

After recording these, Shen Feng looked at the zombies on the ground and added again:

"...The mutant brain has weak radio wave responses, occasional conscious responses, and overall confusion and illogicality."

If you only look at the variation of the body function of this zombie, it can be said to be mediocre.

It's not even as good as the powerfully mutated zombies in movies like "Zombie World War" and "Resident Evil".

But it is worth noting that the skin and nervous system of this zombie are mutated, as well as the brain.

It's just a different kind of creature.

The micro-scaly phenomenon of the skin is definitely related to the change of its own energy supply mode.

Micro-scale... Is it solar powered?

That's a huge change!

And the situation of the brain, after dissecting so many zombies, Shen Feng also has a speculation at this time, this is probably the product of the enrichment of the evil spirit virus.

It reminded Shen Feng of the famous "Kuru disease" in human history.

Papua - Aboriginal peoples in the eastern highlands of New Guinea have a history of eating the organs of their deceased relatives.

This also led to the gradual accumulation of prions in the human body, which eventually caused Kuru disease.

This is an incurable degenerative human transmissible spongiform encephalopathy.

Symptoms begin with tremors and ataxia, followed by dementia, and various systemic disorders, culminating in rapid death within months.

The same is true for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, in which infected people have sleep disturbances, personality changes, ataxia, aphasia, visual loss, physical, muscle wasting, myoclonus, progressive dementia, and more. Died within one year of onset.

Pathological features of the disease include spongiform degeneration of the cerebellum and cerebral cortex and the presence of prions.

Among them, the enrichment of prions is a very important process.

At this time, Shen Feng gradually sorted out two inferences with high credibility.

1. Zombies eat people in order to absorb the metal elements in the same body and provide relevant raw materials for their own brain mutation.

2. Those who are eaten are also infected with the evil spirit virus, but it has not completely erupted. Zombies eat people also to enrich the evil spirit virus in their bodies, that is, absorb viruses from other sources to promote their own brains. Partial variation.

These two inferences ultimately point in the same direction.

Brain Variation.

Another thing that made Shen Feng very concerned was the faint brain waves that appeared in the zombie's brain from time to time, not like consciousness, but more like a signal from a mobile phone.

If the brain is compared to a mobile phone, then the radio waves it emits seem to be looking for an existence similar to a "base station".

At this moment, the brain was placed on the table next to it. Shen Feng picked up a screwdriver and poked at the brain, which had been deformed like a sea urchin, and poked a little amyloid structure from it.

At this moment, the brain released a weak electric wave again, and it was not completely finished yet.

This brain has completely become a rich group of evil spirit viruses. It can be said that it is almost completely composed of viruses. The radio waves released at this time make Shen Feng feel very familiar.

When the Tokyo epidemic spread, the deeply infected zombies he encountered, the brainwaves released were basically this frequency.

His silicon-based brain quickly memorized the frequency of the waves, and at the same time began to work hard to release the waves through the silicon-based brain.

Zombies use not only eyes and noses to identify friends and foes, but more importantly, brain waves.

If Shen Feng could release this kind of brain waves, he might be able to hide from those zombies.

After sorting out these conclusions, Shen Feng continued to report to the "Real Doomsday Game" system:

"Investigation:

…”

After finishing the entry, he packed up all kinds of tools, packed his backpack, opened the door with a shotgun, and walked out.

This room was a mess after the autopsy work, and it was time to change it.

However, Shen Feng did not leave the building, but went up the stairs, preparing to go to the rooftop of the building to see what was going on in Mexico City.

Judging from the deterioration of the zombie's clothes just now, it has been at least one or two years since the outbreak of the evil spirit virus in this world.

What he had experienced before was all the end-of-game missions and then the crisis in the real world.

The evil spirit virus plague has come in the opposite direction. First there is the real world epidemic, and then there is the parallel world of the end-of-the-world mission.

It can make him feel, if he fails on earth, what tragic consequences he will face.

Moreover, Shen Feng was full of doubts at this time.

After all, if this parallel world is very similar to the original world he experienced, would there also exist the Whisperer, the Purification Society, Kethul, the Salvation Army, and... his savior?

So what happens to the Whisperers with the Lord of the Void taking over the world?

Does the Purification Society exist?

What happened to Kesul?

Is his savior... still alive?

Is the Salvation Army still spreading the flame of hope like the Grey Tide world?

And if the Void Lord is still in this world, has he ever had a confrontation with the Whisperer?

What about the battle between these indescribable and indescribable beings?

Soon~lightnovelpub.net~ Shen Feng had already climbed dozens of stairs, killed a few zombies, and came to the door leading to the top roof.

Between the roof and the stairs, there was a heavy iron door, which was fastened with an iron rod, but did not open.

While thinking about various issues, Shen Feng pulled out the iron rod and opened the iron door.

Looking up and looking inside with a confused look, Shen Feng couldn't help but scolded as the locals do:

"FUCK!"

On the rooftop, hundreds of zombies that had already turned into ghosts from the wind and the sun turned their heads at the same time and looked at Shen Feng.

All of them opened their mouths wide and seemed to be very happy.

Here comes my brother.
