Chapter 78： Pathogen gene enhancement system

The Extremis Thunder Beast, as the first experimental product of the virus programming effect, has confirmed that the Extremis Virus is indeed effective in reconstructing the body. However, the Extremis Thunder Beast alone is not enough to make Chen Lu's zombie army and the U.S. army. To obtain sufficient advantage in the battle, he still needs more troops and the zombie army to cooperate, and the burden of this task naturally falls on Alex.

"Don't worry, Master, I have planned the next zombies' body structure in the future, and the construction of the air force and the navy will soon be on track, and the three-dimensional combat of the sea, land and air forces will be reached as soon as possible." This is also Chen Lu's pleasure. The reason for entrusting the task to Alex, many times he doesn't need to say that Alex will prepare himself. He is really a rare internal affairs talent. What's more coincidental is that Alex is still a graduate in genetics, and his knowledge of biological structure is estimated that Tony will have to go down.

"Thanks for your hard work."

After bidding farewell to Alex, who continued to immerse himself in the study of Extremis Virus programming, Chen Lu set his sights on the last major gain of this operation-the new permission unlocked after evolving into the virus matrix: the pathogen gene enhancement system.

【Pathogen Gene Enhancement System (LV1)】

【Communication effect exchange list】

【Skill effect exchange list】

【Symptom effect exchange list】

[Remaining DNA enhancement points: 11 points]

DNA enhancement points? It seems that this is the transaction currency of this gene-enhanced system, but why is there 11 points now? Soon a system prompt sounded in his mind to clear Chen Lu's doubts.

[Every time a mutant infected person spawns, the host will gain 1 point of DNA enhancement. Mutated infected people can be spawned slowly by infecting large groups of zombies (humans with strong willpower have a higher chance of mutating), or they can be spawned directly by infecting superheroes or super villains in the Marvel world. Please choose the method carefully.]

It turns out that at present, Chen Lu has seven mutated infected persons from the mutations of ordinary zombies in Queens, plus four mutant infected persons directly mutated from superheroes/villains by Hawkeye, Winter Soldier, Tony, and Kilian. It happened to be 11 people. From the point of view of the production method of mutant infected persons, the system should be given two ways of harvesting DNA enhancement points-farming stream that mainly infects more civilians and accumulates the number of zombies, and kills and infects more superheroes. / The villain-based predatory stream, both have their own advantages and disadvantages, but the Marvel World estimates that the predatory stream is more suitable for action.

Then let's see what DNA enhancement points can be exchanged for. Chen Lu first clicked on the communication effect exchange list in the first row, and currently there are only four redeemable items on it.

【Communication effect exchange list】

【Airborne infection LV1: The viability and infectious ability of pathogens in the air are slightly improved, and the spreading effect of the zombie virus stock solution is increased to 50 kilometers in diameter. Infected people who have not mutated into zombies can also spread the virus by sneezing. Required DNA strengthening points: 10 points]

【Water source infection LV1: It is a small increase in the viability and infectious ability of pathogens in water sources. The maximum dilution factor of the zombie virus stock solution is increased to 100,000 times. The body fluid of the zombie can still retain its infectious power after being diluted 100 times. Required DNA strengthening points: 10 points]

[Variable temperature animal infection LV1: The infection effect of pathogens in temperature-changing animals is slightly increased, the time required for the mutation speed of temperature-changing animals is reduced to 2 hours, and the desire to bite other creatures is greatly increased. Required DNA strengthening points: 10 points]

【Heat-temperature animal infection LV1: The infection effect of pathogens in warm-temperature animals (except humans) is slightly improved, the time required for the mutation speed of warm-temperature animals is reduced to 2 hours, and the desire to bite other creatures is greatly increased. Required DNA strengthening points: 10 points]

No wonder Chen Lulao felt that the infectious ability of the zombie virus was so weak before. It turned out that the system from the beginning was to allow him to freely plan the virus infection route after evolving into the virus matrix! Among the four items, air infection seems very convenient but the actual effect is very tasteless; water source infection is undoubtedly an excellent way, but the transoceanic ability may be insufficient; the temperature-changing animals are mainly insects and reptiles, which are large in number and difficult Take precautions; warm-blooded animals are mainly birds and mammals, and their numbers are less than insects, but the transoceanic ability of birds has considerable strategic significance.

These effects are indeed very useful, but unfortunately they are not what Chen Lu needs urgently. The most headache for Chen Lu now is not how to spread the virus, but how to prevent the upcoming US military attack so as not to be affected by Professor X's mind. Sensing ability to find out. The enhancement of the communication effect has to be temporarily delayed and waited for the crisis to pass before considering how to use it.

Then look at the second category.

【Skill effect exchange list】

[Current Skill: Zombie Spirit Link]

[DNA enhancement points required to unlock the next skill: 50 points]

Indeed, all zombies are controlled by Chen Lu through the skill of zombie spirit link Without this ability, Chen Lu cannot be called the master of the virus at all. The effect of the first skill is so powerful, no one will not expect how much the unlocking of the next skill will play. It's a pity that the cost of unlocking is too much, far from what Chen Lu can afford at the moment, so I can only think about it temporarily.

Next is the last category. Speaking of symptoms, Chen Lu has vaguely guessed that this is what he needs urgently.

【Symptom effect exchange list】

【Upgrade Bone Spurs LV1: Add mutant bone spurs to all ordinary zombies to increase their melee combat capabilities. Required DNA strengthening points: 10 points]

【Upgrade Bone Shell LV1: Add a mutant external bone shell to all ordinary zombies to increase their physical defense capabilities. Required DNA strengthening points: 10 points]

[Metabolism acceleration LV1: Let all ordinary zombies get faster wound healing speed, and can regenerate the broken limbs in battle. Required DNA strengthening points: 10 points]

[Adrenaline LV1: Strengthen the running speed and endurance of all ordinary zombies, while gaining a higher attack frequency. Required DNA strengthening points: 15 points]

That's right, this is it! For zombie viruses, the changes that occur after humans become zombies are undoubtedly the so-called "symptoms". This redemption list is obviously provided to improve the zombies' collective combat effectiveness. Zombies that have not experienced any symptom enhancement are so weak that even ordinary humans without training can kill them with simple weapons, but if any of the above symptoms are exchanged, they can be The single zombie became very difficult.

What if I redeem it all? Then I can only say one thing--

The zombie army has risen from then on!
