Wasteland Code Survival Chapter 291: Brain death
"Aim at the head and shoot, the vital position is below the brainstem, and throw bullets on the faces of these parasites!" Qi Lin said loudly in English, and Ivan quickly repeated it in Russian.
Although I don’t know the reason for the parasitic worm to control the corpse, it is clear that the brain that has turned into a pale paste in the corpse’s skull has no function at all. Qi Lin also tried to attack the parasite with bullets before. The brain has no effect at all.
The function of the human brain is in charge of advanced functions such as hearing, vision, movement, language and emotion, but the brain of the parasite has been completely replaced by the parasitic worm in the body.
The parasitic worm is the brain of the parasite. Through thermal vision, Qi Lin can clearly see the surface of the parasitic worm, spreading many extremely long root-like filaments, some of which penetrate the parasite Part of the cerebellum and brain stem of the parasite is entangled with the original spinal nerve of the parasite, all the way down, covering the entire spine.
The body of the parasitic worm is very fragile, but the entire skull that protects it is unusually hard.
Theoretically speaking, after a person dies, due to the gradual loss of calcium in the bones in the body, the strength of the bones will generally decrease slowly, but the parasites are completely different. Qi Lin suspects that parasitic worms can secrete It produces a substance that enhances the strength of the bones of the parasited corpse and allows the bones to produce a petrification-like change.
Although the 7.62mm bullet of ak47 can still penetrate the parasite's skull, it can only pass through it. It is completely impossible to shoot a head into a rotten watermelon like on the battlefield of the old age.
Moreover, the biggest problem is that the 7.62mm bullet is difficult to roll in the target body after penetrating the skull due to the volume problem, while the small caliber bullet that will cause a large area of cavity effect cannot penetrate. The skull of the parasite.
This requires very high marksmanship. Unless you can directly hit the parasitic worm hiding in your head, no matter how many bullets are spilled, you will not be able to completely kill a parasite.
These mutants have only received the most basic shooting training. In actual combat, it is very rare to be able to shoot bullets on the parasite at a distance of 50 meters, not to mention a target as small as the head, and It is not necessary to hit the head, but also to accurately hit the parasitic worm in the head.
A person with a height of 1.8 meters, from a distance of fifty meters, is not as high as a fingernail of a thumb, and the head on his shoulders is not even as large as a front sight.
Noisy gunshots continued to sound, and both brass and iron bullet casings were scattered all over the floor. However, few parasites fell.
There is also a scene that made Qi Lin even more shocking-a mutant who was seriously injured and fell to the ground. Two parasites dragged their legs, and the other parasite was a parasite whose neck was broken. He held his head in front of the mutant, and within a few seconds, the milky white parasitic worm crawled out of the nostrils of the parasite's head, and quickly got into the mutant's nostrils.
The mutant looked horrified and screamed like he wanted to pull out the worm that had penetrated his nostrils, but his limbs were firmly pressed by several other parasites.
A few seconds after the parasitic worm entered the nostril, the mutant’s screams stopped abruptly, and within a few seconds, he also struggled to get up from the ground like a parasitic, and squeezed towards him stiffly. Lin and the others took a step in this direction.
"The parasitic is so fast!"
Qi Lin was secretly surprised. From the time the parasitic worms penetrated into the mutant's nostrils, to completely control the mutant's corpse, the entire process of replacing the host took less than a minute.
In other words, as long as there are enough corpses, these parasites can't be killed at all, just don't know whether the corpses of mutant creatures can be controlled by this parasitic worm.
"Shoot! Shoot! Suppress the firepower, and hit me at the place where the group of guys are the densest!" Ivan shouted hoarsely, however, everyone found out with a little horror that the number of parasites has increased. too much!
"Damn it, 9527, you tell me why so many parasites are coming out? Did you poke their mother's eyes?" The ak in Ivan's hand hit the barrel so that it became red Yes, as for Qi Lin's one, it has long since been unable to continue shooting because of the bullet jam and the burst of the barrel.
"I suspect that these parasites are all'newborn'."
After seeing the entire parasitic process just now, Qi Lin pondered for a while, and then came to this conclusion.
"Newborn? What do you mean?"
"When I entered Warehouse No. 9 before, I only saw one parasite. I fought with it for at least a few minutes. After I killed it, other parasites appeared. ——If these parasites stay in the warehouse, why didn’t they just come out and surround me? In that case, I can’t get out."
"When I escaped from the warehouse, the number of parasites was only a few dozen at most, but now, excluding those killed by us, the number of those parasites has exceeded 200."
"So, I suspect that these parasites are probably all'newborn'-for some reason, there are many corpses implanted with worm eggs. These worm eggs may have been in the warehouse. During the dormant period, we alarmed them, so these worm eggs hatched one after another, and the corpses that had been sealed up stood up one by one."
"It is estimated that more will come out later——"
"e6aтb!" Ivan couldn't help but swear a classic Russian swear word, which is almost the meaning of "fuck" in English and "fuck" in Chinese.
More than two hundred parasites, and I don’t know how many parasitic worms have not hatched. This made Ivan feel a deep sense of powerlessness. After lighting up the last magazine, he finally It was ordered that everyone retreat.
The movement of the parasite is very slow, so everyone does not have to worry about the possibility of being overtaken. After running out of the tunnel in one breath, the mutants immediately turned around and aimed their guns at the exit of the tunnel.
I have been waiting for more than an hour, and did not see the parasite chasing it out. Qi Lin and Ivancai both breathed a sigh of relief. Radiation concentration environment.
"It seems that you need to develop a plan for parasites before you can get the things in Warehouse No. 9." Qi Lin said.
"Hey—" Ivan gave a wry smile. This targeting plan is not so easy to talk about. Apart from removing the parasite's head from the worm body one by one, they don't know there is a way to parasitize the group. The person was completely wiped out.
At this moment, a mutant suddenly came over with a look of horror, and said a lot of words to Ivan in Russian incoherently. Only halfway through hearing Ivan's brows frowned tightly. Up.
"What did you give birth to, so flustered?" Qi Lin asked in a puzzled manner.
"An hour has passed, and Tarkov, Peter, and Varikin have not been resurrected." Ivan said solemnly.
"Isn't this normal? It's possible that their resurrection point is far away, and they won't be able to make it for a while, right?" Qi Lin asked strangely.
"No, this is abnormal. We are different from you. Due to the intervention of the mastermind, our mutants have a fixed resurrection point after death, which is in the city of Neroszsk-I must go offline to check it now, please You wait for me for a while."
After finishing speaking, Ivan ordered two more sentences with the other two mutants, and went offline in a hurry.
……
After several hours have passed since this offline, Ivan reappeared in front of Qi Lin.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"Takov, Peter and Varikin are all dead." Ivan's voice trembled slightly.
"Dead...? Is it death in reality?" Qi Lin was taken aback. Obviously, the death Ivan said could not be the death in the game.
"Yes..."
"How did they die? Don't you mutants have countless chances of resurrection? Why did you die? Is the physical condition suddenly deteriorated?"
"No~IndoMTL.com~ Their physical condition is very stable, and there is no trauma on their body surface, but the records in the game cabin show that their brain waves have experienced very strong fluctuations and disturbances before."
"Brain death?" Qi Lin guessed that before, players with weaker minds were stimulated in the game. In reality, mental breakdown turned into a madman, but the situation that directly caused brain death was really his first I heard once.
"It should be... but there is even worse news. Would you like to hear it?"
"What news?"
"Takov, Peter, and Varikin are the three people who have just been parasitized by the parasitic worm."...
