Lin An stared at his simulation interface with a serious expression.
This time, his thoughts could be said to be completely different from the boorish man from yesterday.
But he was not being careless.
In fact, this was a new way of thinking.
Previously, Lin An had thought that if he wanted to court death, he would have to look for danger everywhere and take the initiative to scam those powerful mutant groups. In the end, he would have to die as soon as possible in the simulation and reduce the cooldown time of the simulator.
However, after Lin An obtained so many support and even tower defense talents, he suddenly thought,'Can I make those mutated monsters take the initiative to find trouble with me?'
This was not his imagination, but a very reasonable guess based on information.
On the 30th day, the Mutants and Mutant Zombies would start to gather together, like a squad, and start a horde of zombies.
Every human gathering place would be their target.
Then, was it possible for Lin An to support a colony by himself?
Or rather, did Lin An have the right to make himself the target of the zombie horde?
Lin An thought for a moment and was certain. As long as he made a slight noise, those zombies wouldn't be able to ignore him.
Therefore, this time, his simulation idea was to choose a suitable location along the path of the zombie tide and build a fortress.
Use the effects of the Plant Manipulator and Equipment Master to strengthen equipment, set up traps and plant guards.
Defend to the death and see how long they could hold on.
On the one hand, it was to test whether this kind of farming method of finding a place to occupy land was feasible. On the other hand, it was also to test the ability of these talents.
To observe its future growth possibilities and effects.
After all, Lin An was just an ordinary person with limited energy. When the apocalypse arrived, it would be very difficult for him to develop all of his talents at the same time. Most likely, he would have to choose a direction to focus on and let the other talents assist him.
For example, if he wanted to focus on individual combat power, he would have to focus on Sirius Star, the War God, and the Blacklight Virus, supplemented by other abilities to increase his combat power as much as possible.
If he wanted to focus on those support talents, his idea was to use the talent of the Plant Manipulator to create an absolutely safe fortress with plants as the first barrier. Then, he would use the Equipment Master to upgrade various weapons and maximize the power of modern weapons.
There were many ways to strengthen an Equipment Master. In Lin An's imagination, he even thought that he could strengthen something like the 'Fully-Automatic Machine Gun Guardian', allowing guns, tanks, and the like to learn how to deal with zombies on their own.
Lin An was even wondering if he could find a suitable AI program to enhance the so-called artificial intelligence.
Secondly, he would make use of various combat talents to continuously make up for his shortcomings. However, the ultimate goal was to maximize the use of these two talents, with strengthening his spiritual power as the core.
This time, Lin An was testing the second route.
He impatiently activated the new simulation after his ninth reset.
[Day 1: After clearing the zombies around the warehouse and waiting for Jiang Qingxue to wake up from her coma and awaken her ability, you leave her to guard the house. Then, you go to the hospital morgue alone and use a strengthened bow and arrow to easily shoot through the mutated zombie's head.]
You have obtained the talent to increase your spiritual power. You can clearly feel that your spiritual power is constantly improving.
Lin An heaved a sigh of relief. This time, he was also testing whether he could trigger the talent of the Sirius Star if he went to the hospital to clear out the two mutated zombies on the first day.
Fortunately, Sirius did not disappoint him.
However, this also indirectly explained one point.
If Lin An couldn't deal with the pregnant zombie in the underground morgue, she would definitely become a terrifying existence.
Lin An guessed that this zombie was probably a 'union' that was born by chance.
As the mother, the mutated zombie had the ability to control zombies and spiritual attacks. On the other hand, the mutated zombie in her stomach had the ability to increase spiritual power. With the combination of the two, it could be said to be a match made in heaven. The increase was huge.
He had to get rid of them as soon as possible.
Fortunately, he had received information that the zombie seemed to be sleeping. He could kill it without any injuries with long-range weapons.
[Day 2: You heard the sound of gunfire and took the initiative to bring your teammates to join the party. After showing off your skills as an Evolver, you were valued and successfully joined the colony.]
[Day 3: You begin to prepare in advance and work hard to strengthen the equipment at hand.]
[Day 4: Continue to work hard to upgrade your equipment. At the same time, take some time to go to the plant market in the county city to obtain some plant seeds and start accelerating their growth.]
[Day 5: You overdrew your mental strength while upgrading a miaodao and almost fainted. You have to rest for a day.]
Day 6: You change your mind and focus on breeding plants. The number of seeds you have is doubling almost every hour. In the process of continuous reproduction, you are also trying to induce mutations in them.
[Day 7: Your breeding work is beginning to show results. The sixth batch of seedlings has become outstanding mutated seedlings. After you have urged them to grow, these plants can already communicate with you.]
Day 8: Continue to study the seed.
[Day 9: As you have been using your ability these days, your spiritual power has increased very quickly. In order to celebrate, you have used a watermelon seed to make many delicious watermelons. In the colony, your watermelons have received a lot of praise. Everyone is very respectful of you.]
[Day 10: Your first batch of Plant Guardians has been successfully created. These mutated plants will usually disguise themselves as ordinary vines, but when they encounter zombies or mutated animals, they will tightly bind them and use the spikes on the plants to hunt for food. They will also use the flesh to provide nutrients and reproduce on their own.]
You are very happy, but they have low intelligence and can only deal with ordinary zombies. You decide to continue improving them.
Day 11: Continue your research.
[Day 12: You have decided to change your mood and begin to strengthen your weapons. After your research, you have found that items like rifles and grenades are the easiest to strengthen. Your spiritual power is enough to support mass strengthening. You have easily made a batch of weapons that have been strengthened for the first time. It is a great joy.]
Day 13: Continue to strengthen the previous batch of weapons.
[Day 14: You have reached the limit of mass strengthening. Considering efficiency, you have distributed the weapons that have been strengthened four times. After testing, these weapons can effectively kill mutated zombies.]
Day 15: Continue to study plants.
Lin An looked at the records attentively. The simulation results were very gratifying.
This time, he did not go out to kill monsters at all. He only focused on using his ability to continuously increase his mental strength, while researching, improving, and displaying his talent.
On the eighteenth day, Lin An made a major breakthrough in his research in the simulator.
[Day 18: The Willow Tree No. 1 that you have researched has successfully mutated. The Willow Tree No. 1 that has mutated from a willow seed has a huge and tough body. Even if you can only strengthen one such plant per day, its combat power is enough to surprise you.]
After testing, this huge willow tree that could move slowly and had grown to five meters tall could deal damage comparable to a strengthened grenade when it waved its branches. It could also withstand a normal shot.
[Day 19: You have bred a large number of Guardian God No. 1 seeds and have begun to develop stronger combinations.]
[Day 20: Through matching, you have successfully fused the willow tree and apple tree into one. You have mutated into a mutated plant that you have named Guardian No. 1.]
The fruits they bear can be thrown, and the effective range is an astonishing 500 to 1,500 meters. The weight of their fruits is extremely high, and the lethality after throwing them is very high. You used an armored vehicle to test it, and the results were gratifying. The armored vehicle that was 1,000 meters away was smashed into scrap metal.
[Day 21: Considering the time constraint, you have decided to multiply and breed two types of mutated plants to set up a defense. Yin Xiaoxiao, who has already awakened her ability, has provided you with a spirit recovery potion that she has made. Your spirit endurance has increased greatly.]
[Day 22: The hundreds of seeds that you have cultivated have been buried in the ground. You have used the flesh and blood of zombies to cultivate them, reducing the amount of mental energy you need to produce them. The results are satisfactory.]
Day twenty-three, Continue to set up defenses.
[Day 24: You have planted all your seeds. The people in the colony will cooperate with you and use a large number of zombies to accelerate the growth of the plants.]
[Day 25: Considering the battle angles, routes, and the number of plants that you have cultivated, you begin to focus on strengthening your equipment.]
[Day 26: You focus on strengthening a heavy machine gun. In the end, you successfully strengthen the special enhancement of automatic shooting. However, considering the consumption and time of the enhancement, as well as the slow aiming and firing speed, you finally decide to give up on the idea of automatic high-firing machine gun.]
[Day 27: You have begun to strengthen your normal weapons on a large scale. A large number of rifles and grenades have been strengthened.]
Day 28: Continue to strengthen.
[Day 29: You will continue to strengthen your weapons in batches.]
Day 30: You begin to focus on strengthening the tank.
[Day 31: You have strengthened a heavy tank to its current limit. Its power is astonishing.]
Day 32: You begin to strengthen some cannonballs.
....
Lin An looked at it seriously. He kept trying to strengthen all kinds of equipment and weapons in the simulation, including but not limited to vehicles, firearms, and cold weapons. Then, he kept trying to find more powerful strengthening combinations, as well as mutated combinations of plants.
Ten days later, the situation that Lin An had envisioned finally appeared.
Day 43: At night, you saw a horde of zombies appear from afar. However, you were prepared and did not panic. The strengthened searchlights illuminated the distance. You used the advantage of firepower to block the enemy in advance.
[Day 44: Midnight, your resistance was quite effective. With your mobility, you successfully distracted the enemy and pulled them into the plant trap that you didn't set up properly.]
Your first line of defense, the Mutated Vine, has begun to take effect, blocking the zombies at the outermost perimeter. The zombies that fell like shooting targets have boosted your morale.
When the zombies broke through the vines, your mutated willow tree joined the battle. They rose from the ground and blocked the zombies with their huge bodies. Even the mutated zombies were intercepted by them, and the harvest was quite good.
Your Mutated Long-Range Plant Guardians have astonishing lethality. They are focused on killing the Mutated Zombies and have become your main output point.
The battle lasted until dawn. The zombies retreated on their own initiative, leaving only corpses on the ground.
You have obtained a great victory.
Lin An clenched his fists tightly, but he didn't relax.
In the previous simulation, he had learned his lesson. This group of zombies was probably on their way to a certain place and accidentally bumped into a gathering place outside the county city. They did not deliberately launch an attack. This time, the attack was far from fierce.
However, after they retreated, the one commanding the zombies would realize that there were humans resisting. At that time, they would gather the zombies again, or even regroup with the zombies from other places to attack again.
As expected, on the forty-seventh day of the simulation, another battle appeared on Lin An's simulator.
Day 47: You were already prepared, facing the zombie tide that came from all directions, resisting with all your might.
Gunfire roared, and the mutated plants did not retreat. The Evolvers worked together, and even the ordinary people in the colony became reserve soldiers in fear. They took over the weapons of their deceased predecessors and continued to fight for survival.
But unfortunately, this group of zombies seemed to be prepared. They attacked one area and tore apart a line of defense. You had no choice but to use your flesh and blood to fill it.
You are fighting a bloody battle in front of you. Suddenly, you feel something strange. You see through a group of mutated zombies that are hiding and immediately give an early warning.
" You are fighting with these invisible mutated zombies. However, a zombie that is tens of meters tall suddenly appeared and cut into the battlefield from the side. It destroyed your defensive facilities and your plants could not deal any effective damage to it.
You look at the broken camp and decide to fight to the death.
In the end, you regretfully lost in the siege.
You're dead.
Forty-seven days.
He died in the face of the zombie tide.
Lin An pondered for a moment and was delighted.
It should be known that the firepower of the gathering place near the county was not strong enough. There were only a few tanks with heavy weapons. It could be said that it was at most the standard of an armored regiment.
However, even with Lin An's help, he still managed to achieve a very good result.
It could be said that if it wasn't for the sudden appearance of the giant zombie that broke through the defense line like a meat shield, ordinary zombies wouldn't even be able to get close to his base.
As for the mutated zombies, in the battle simulation, they did not see anyone posing a huge threat to them.
Although he died in the end, Lin An wasn't surprised. After all, he hadn't actively fought with zombies in this simulation. It could be said that his combat strength was at least twice as weak as in the previous simulations.
After all, although his talent allowed him to become stronger quickly, it was not something that could be done just by sitting and drinking water. Constantly fighting was the main method to increase his combat strength.
Furthermore, the Sirius Star was almost useless. In this simulation, other than the zombies in the county morgue, he did not use any special abilities that the Sirius Star had obtained.
One had to know that some special abilities were completely not inferior to a gold talent.
Lastly, there was also the combat strength of his teammates. After all, staying with him in the safe zone would definitely not be as fast as going through life and death situations outside.
Lin An came to a few conclusions based on this simulation.
First, he couldn't be biased. The prospects of the Plant Element and equipment strengthening were promising, but the apocalypse was a protracted war. He couldn't give up because of choking, but he couldn't afford to lose sight of one. He had to grasp both.
Moreover, from the looks of it, one's own combat strength was more important. After all, if one couldn't win, then running was the true guarantee of living long. If one didn't even have the ability to run, then they would really be finished.
Secondly, he had to choose a suitable place to build his Doomsday Fortress. With plants, he could create a perfect defense system without the need for many humans.
Even if the plants themselves couldn't be strengthened, Lin An could strengthen his equipment and give it to the mutated plants! It could also achieve the goal of building a defensive ability.
Therefore, the base he chose must have enough time to develop mutated plants and strive for the growth of his spiritual power.
On the other hand, he had to avoid the zombies and mutated monsters in the early stages to avoid becoming a thorn in his side and making a fortune quietly.
After the most difficult first fifty days, he would have about a month to perfect his base and deal with the post-nuclear world before the nuclear explosion.
Lin An tapped his fingers on the sofa as he added some details to his plan.
It was impossible for the apocalypse to only leave him, Yin Xiaoxiao, Lu Yao, and Jiang Qingxue alive. After all, after the apocalypse, he still had to consider the issue of rebuilding.
He still needed to absorb a portion of humans. They had to be of help to the future reconstruction, including outstanding intelligence personnel, scientific personnel, combat personnel, and logistics personnel.
Considering the radiation mutation after the nuclear explosion, these people had to be evolvers. No matter how strong or weak they were, they had to at least evolve before they could have the ability to survive.
Lin An pondered this matter for a moment before coming up with an idea.
There were too few Evolvers who could evolve on their own.
Human intervention was required.
He remembered very clearly that the Beijing Research Institute had once developed an evolutionary drug.
In that case, could he think of a way to maximize the use of the research institute and mass-produce the evolutionary drug to evolve humans before 90 days?
Lin An thought that even if there were only a few dozen evolvers who met the standard, it would be enough to form a qualified force.
However, they couldn't be too strong. Otherwise, it would be difficult to manage them, and it would be easy for the ambitious people in the simulation to cause trouble again.
Lin An fell into deep thought again. Finally, he clapped his hands.
"To make the simplified evolutionary drug, it doesn't need to make a person completely an Evolver. It only needs to have a body that is resistant to viruses and radiation mutations.”
How did he get this?
Lin An looked up at the ceiling. In the end, he could only leave it to himself in the simulation.
He wanted to see if he could help the Research Institute come up with a suitable drug in the simulation.
If he could, then perhaps this would be a brand new path for mankind.
If the simulation was successful, he could find a way to find the key to success and make a deal with the research institute. Or, like in the previous simulation, he could pretend to be a prophet and gain trust.
After getting enough supplies, materials, and personnel, he would bring them to his Lonely Boat Island base.
He would form a survival fortress with a small number of people and enough authority.
Lin An thought for a moment and decided that he could no longer rely on the island. Only by cooperating with the island owner would he be able to get what he wanted.
Because he would never give the initiative and decision-making power of his base to others.
"Phew, I have an idea."
Lin An sorted out the thoughts in his mind and felt that something big was about to happen.
He would test it one last time tomorrow to see if his simplified evolutionary drug was feasible.
After that, they could officially enter the apocalypse.
"I just hope that I can get a golden talent today.”
Lin An couldn't help but pray silently. Then, he was stunned.
Then, he turned to look at Yin Xiaoxiao, who had nothing better to do. After cleaning the house, she could only stare blankly.
"Xiaoxiao."
He called out passionately.
Yin Xiaoxiao immediately looked at him, feeling that his gaze was a little scary.
"Help us find Sister Bodhisattva and pray. Do you think it will work?”After Lin An said that, he saw Yin Xiaoxiao looking at him strangely.
She hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she obediently put her palms together and said,"Please, Bodhisattva, let Lin An get what he wants, even though I don't know what he wants.”
After that, Yin Xiaoxiao opened her eyes carefully and looked at Lin An. She hesitated for a moment before speaking the truth in her heart."Lin An!"
"Hmm?" Lin An looked at her in confusion.
Yin Xiaoxiao glanced at him first, then looked away and said softly,""I just prayed for you this morning. You, don't be too superstitious.”
"Even if there really is a Bodhisattva, you can't order him around like you order me around.”
"If there's really a problem, let's, let's work hard to solve it, okay?”
"It's impossible to rely on luck and metaphysics.”
She said sincerely.
Lin An snorted a few times, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He stood up and pinched the soft flesh on her cheeks with both hands in anger."Call me brother!"
"Brother, I poked you." With her face pinched, Yin Xiaoxiao couldn't speak clearly. She could only beg for mercy with her pitiful eyes as she mumbled.
"Forget it. With this lucky pendant of yours, it's impossible for my luck to be too bad, right?”Lin An consoled himself.
Yin Xiaoxiao rubbed her face and whispered,""I don't think so."
"Hmm?" Lin An raised an eyebrow.
Yin Xiaoxiao immediately covered her face vigilantly, a faint smile in her peach blossom eyes.""I mean, brother, you can definitely do it.”
"Yo, you know how to play with me?”Lin An laughed and patted her head. His voice was unexpectedly gentle."It's pretty good. Keep it up and be happy.”
Yin Xiaoxiao put down her hand, feeling a little touched.""I…"
However, before she could finish, Lin An took the opportunity to pinch her face again.""Heh, if you spout nonsense again, watch how I teach you a lesson.”
"I poked it, brother! It hurts!" She begged for mercy with a bitter face.
In the end, Lin An opened his palm and rubbed her face. He smiled and looked straight into her eyes."Anyway, you will definitely bless me and make my wishes come true, right, female Bodhisattva?”
Her face flushed red and her body was erratic. After a while, she let out a trembling hum.
Lin An thought that she was just too cute. He couldn't help but smile at her for a long time before letting go."That's good. Thank you for your blessings, Bodhisattva.”
This time, Yin Xiaoxiao didn't dare to say anything else. It wasn't because his face was hurting, but because his gaze made her heart race.
How strange.
Lin An walked toward the gym equipment and worked hard. However, before he could train for long, his phone suddenly rang. It was the sound of someone sending a text message.
He didn't care and continued to exercise. Half an hour later, he put down the barbell that was gradually becoming harder and harder to tire. He turned his head and picked up his phone.
It was actually a message from Lu Yao.
Lin An opened it and glanced at the contents. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty as he glanced at Yin Xiaoxiao, who was standing there in a daze.
Hiss.
Doomsday had yet to arrive.
However, the Asura Arena seemed to be arriving first.
