It could be seen that although Xiong Hanzi did not refute him, he was somewhat disapproving of it.
Lin An frowned slightly and turned to look at him seriously:
"Don't look at the strong mental storm I just broke out. I think the corpse group is nothing more than that."
"Yes, zombies are indeed easy to kill."
"But it's not that simple."
"With extreme willpower and new talents, my group attack methods have indeed been strengthened, and the consumption is also huge."
"Two mental storms, without using my life force to transform them, are basically my limit."
It's purely for testing strength.
Only Lin An, the person involved, knew how exaggerated the mental storm that swept through half of the industrial area was.
Otherwise, why would he choose to walk after activating his skills?
Are you still asking Zhang Tie to find a car?
Indeed, he can also unleash stronger combat power, or fight with his physical body.
It doesn’t necessarily all depend on mental strength.
But what’s the use of just killing ordinary zombies?
Out of about a hundred zombies, a first-level zombie will be born.
And among a hundred first-level ones, one second-level one will be born.
And so on.
With a population of 100 billion and a base of over 80 billion zombies, the number of third-order mutants will reach a terrifying number of nearly 100,000.
This is not even a special mutation.
With the massive zombie base, the number of Level 3 zombies far exceeded their imagination.
In addition, as the progress of the doomsday increases, the strength of the mutants will also rapidly strengthen.
Seeing Lin An being so serious, Xiong Hanzi was so angry that he subconsciously wanted to say something.
One hundred thousand?
It sounds scary, but they have seen hundreds of millions of third-order amoebas.
It's nothing.
"Team Lin."
"I don't underestimate mutants either."
"But our strength is also getting stronger."
"I think the speed at which we can become stronger will definitely surpass these monsters."
"You are not even the third level now."
"When you reach the third level, isn't that just cutting melons and vegetables?"
"Besides, I, Lao Zhang, am not a vegetarian."
Playful smiley face.
Xiong Hanzi clumsily tried to ease the tense atmosphere, but he seemed to have said the wrong thing.
Captain Lin was originally in a good mood, but when he interrupted his mood, he immediately became a little heavy.
What he thought was simple.
He gets stronger after being beaten, but he can hardly die anyway, right?
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin An hesitated for a moment and did not intend to hide anything anymore.
Zhang Tie had been following him for so long, and he had guessed at some level what information he knew, which was obviously too much.
The look is gloomy.
"good."
"Assuming we can handle the third level and maintain the speed of getting stronger."
"What about level four?"
When asked in return, Lin An spoke solemnly and did not give Xiong Hanzi time to reply:
"Leaving aside the fourth level, have you ever thought about the catastrophe that will follow."
"Global earthquakes, earthquakes with magnitude nine or even magnitude ten or twelve, tell me, can we solve it?"
"A magnitude 9 earthquake exploded with energy equivalent to 1.1 million Hiroshima atomic bombs."
"With a large number of casualties and the destruction of fortifications, do you think you can still stop the tide of corpses?"
"A giant tsunami hundreds of meters high, magnetic pole reversal, and volcanic eruptions."
"Technological means gradually failed and instruments were damaged."
"Extreme weather, melting of the Arctic and Antarctic, rising sea levels, severe food shortages...
"What do you think we should do?"
After hearing this, his expression froze.
Zhang Tie suddenly remembered what Lin An had vaguely mentioned to them in the car before taking over Linjiang College.
Without giving him much time to think, Lin An spoke quickly, as if suppressing worries and continued:
"Not only that."
"All creatures around the world will mutate."
"Don't tell me you didn't notice something strange about the birds you encountered recently."
"Don't you think that whether they are snakes, rats, insects, ants, or birds and animals, their "courage" is much greater?"
"If every species was as aggressive as ordinary zombies, what kind of disaster do you think we would face?"
"Before the end, the global population will be 100 billion."
"Poultry, just the number of broiler chickens raised every year reaches 260 billion."
"Pigs, 7.8 billion."
"Common categories such as cattle and sheep total more than 46 billion."
"In terms of biological species alone, conventional statistics include 1.5 million species. Even if each species only has a quantity of over 100 million, the total number will reach the trillions level."
"That's not even counting the most numerous bugs."
"Maybe the number of a certain type of bugs reaches trillions."
"How much effort do you think we need to expend and what kind of defense system do we need to establish to resist the invasion of these psychically contaminated monsters?"
A series of data reports made Xiong Hanzi open his mouth.
He had never thought about this. He only thought that this astronomical figure sounded too appalling.
Lin An laughed at himself when he saw this, shook his head and sighed.
"These... forget it."
"Remember the ocean I told you before?"
"The ocean occupies 70% of the entire planet's surface area. How many terrifying monsters do you think will be born in it?"
"I can tell you."
"Even for the most common sardines, the normal quantity is measured in trillions."
"Once they mutate, they evolve amphibious capabilities."
"Faced with over 9 million species of mutated beasts whose number is measured in gigabytes, do you still think the end of the world is nothing more than this?"
Looking at Zhang Tie, whose face was getting more and more ugly, Lin An did not intend to continue talking.
What he said, or what he knew, was just the tip of the iceberg of the end.
After the catastrophe, there was an invasion of demonic beasts, which was of unknown magnitude, almost a terrifying invasion of the entire world.
The current situation is just the beginning of the end.
The situation faced by human beings seems tragic and almost reaches a dead end.
But I didn't even go out to the "Newbie Village".
The world in the future will be even more cruel.
If not.
In just three years in the previous life, how could humans have struggled to survive in the presence of fourth-level extremely powerful beings?
It sounds good to say that he is lingering on his last breath.
To be precise, there was a war between monsters and mutants, and they had no time to take care of the weakest humans.
But even so, it is only a matter of time before human civilization dies.
Third level?
What does it matter before this doomsday catastrophe?
This is why Lin An never thought about saving the world or taking responsibility.
Being able to take An Xia and the others to establish a base and protect one party's survival is already his greatest wish.
In silence, Lin An gently patted Xiong Hanzi on the shoulder, indicating that he didn't need to think about this.
He can just bear the pressure.
"alright."
"I'm not saying this to make you sad every day, but I just want to tell you not to take it lightly."
"At this stage, we are very strong, but it is only temporary."
“When encountering natural disaster-level memes or national-level events, you can’t just take it for granted.”
"As for matters in the capital..."
While speaking, Lin An turned around, put out the cigarette in his hand, and shook his head slightly:
"Chu An gave me some information."
"The situation in the capital is much more complicated than we imagined."
"Maintain the current situation and develop steadily. When I become stronger, I may be able to find a solution."
After that, Lin An didn't say anything more, just looked out the window calmly, waiting for the second-order mutant to appear.
By the way, give him the energy core and ask him to connect the hotel's power supply.
After listening to his words in a daze, Xiong Hanzi opened his mouth.
"Team Lin..."
"Feel sorry..."
After taking over the energy core that acted as a battery, he looked lonely, and after finishing speaking, he returned to his room in frustration.
...
On the system panel, the countdown to the second stage appears: 49 minutes and 33 seconds.
Looking at the gradually brightening exterior wall of the hotel, Lin An tapped his fingertips on the handrail beneath him.
After a night's rest, we might be able to "capture" the double-star base tomorrow.
At about that time, the people from Long'an Base should have arrived.
