Doomsday Plan Special Envoy

Zombie generator...

Jiang Yan's mind was filled with innovative conjectures about a savior.

He wasn't good at physics in high school, but he probably understood the significance of the term "first thermoelectric effect".

Since it's called that, it must be a theory that is widely used in reality.

The wider its application, the simpler it is to put into practice.

Looking at Su Muyun's appearance, Jiang Yan knew that he had added a main quest to his task list.

Ding--

Main mission: Confirm the feasibility of the "Zombie Generator".

Jiang Yan added a voiceover in his mind.

It feels like the savior of this apocalyptic mission is the kind of muscular loli who shouts "I'm so scared of zombies" while wielding her iron fists to crush all the zombies into mincemeat.

With that pretty face, the visual effect is even stronger.

"What do we need?" Jiang Yan asked.

If it's not too difficult, you can try looking in the city in the next couple of days.

Su Muyun smiled and said, "It's very simple. All you need is a thermoelectric generator. You can even make your own."

She explained, "For example, you can use a square ceramic plate to create a temperature difference between the two ends, and then lead out two wires to directly output direct current."

"Electricity can be generated significantly when the temperature difference is greater than 30 degrees Celsius, and the efficiency is extremely high when the temperature difference is 50 degrees Celsius."

Su Muyun did some mental calculations: "The voltage of a single piece is about 2 volts. If multiple pieces are connected in series, they can directly charge the marine battery, but the calculations need to be more accurate."

"A temperature difference of fifty degrees? That's quite something!"

Jiang Yan raised the question, and even though he was not very knowledgeable about physics, chemistry, and biology, he knew that a temperature difference of 50 degrees was not an easy thing to achieve.

"It's not easy, but it would be much simpler if there were zombies."

Su Muyun continued, "The outdoor temperature during the day is over 40 degrees Celsius, and the metal sheet can reach a high temperature of 60 or 70 degrees Celsius. However, the zombie can cause the surrounding air to precipitate ice crystals, which is at least a temperature difference of 40 or 50 degrees Celsius."

Jiang Yan nodded silently. Now that you mention it...

The zombies are much stronger than I imagined.

"In short, the advantages of the zombie generator include, but are not limited to, the following."

"With no moving parts, the structure is simple and not easily damaged;"

"It's almost completely silent; the only sound source is the zombie itself. But we can try removing its vocal cords to reduce its movement space and thus reduce noise."

"It's easy to make, the ingredients are readily available, and it only requires one zombie to generate electricity."

"It's less dependent on the environment than solar energy alone, because it can be used even by zombies at night."

Su Muyun smiled faintly: "With just zombies, generators, voltage regulators, and batteries, we can make the simplest zombie generator."

"That sounds pretty simple. Can you do it during the day? Then you can go to the fishing boat at night and try it with Captain Zhang."

Jiang Yan also laughed.

If successful, Captain Zhang Shun will be remembered in history, and it will be a legendary tale.

Whether it's fame during one's lifetime or after death.

"Yes, we can find tools and materials on the ship. If all else fails, I can dismantle some useful items." Su Muyun was beaming, as if she had found a precious toy.

"Okay, then you can keep busy with this for a while this morning." Jiang Yan looked at the seed bags in the storage compartment. "I was originally thinking of trying farming with you."

Su Muyun blinked: "Farming?"

Jiang Yan nodded repeatedly: "Of course, we can also grow crops on the boat. The vegetables and fruits produced can be used to feed us. The human body needs to supplement vitamins and dietary fiber."

Farming is an ingrained memory in the blood of every Chinese person.

Although there was plenty of food on board, who could resist a bite of refreshing fresh vegetables?

This might not be so noticeable in Chinese people, but in some countries...

Fresh green vegetables signify class disparity.

This bite is definitely one of the sources of happiness; in any case, Jiang Yan is determined to promote the recycling of vegetables.

"That sounds pretty good," Su Muyun said. "We've done experiments on the fishing boat before, and zombie blood doesn't have much of an effect on normal wild animals."

This is an issue that Jiang Yan is very concerned about.

Can the zombie virus infect wild animals?

Don't underestimate this problem; if you can get infected, it's a terrifying thing.

Putting everything else aside, the zombie rats alone are enough to send chills down your spine.

They are highly prolific, omnivorous, and adept at squeezing into various narrow spaces...

Jiang Yan also tried out the "zombie mosquitoes," which are probably even more terrifying than zombie rats.

It turns out that mosquitoes have no interest in zombie blood and do not carry the zombie virus.

Otherwise, it would be an extremely terrifying thing.

"First, plant some simple vegetables, such as bean sprouts, and then see if sunlight will change the vegetables and make them toxic."

Jiang Yan selected several relatively simple crops from the seed bank, and they were from iconic plant families and genera.

Generally speaking, since the sun only causes human genes to break down and turn them into zombies, while other animals are unaffected, then plants should be even less affected.

It's highly unlikely that they'll become zombie plants; the only thing to be wary of is whether they'll contaminate the plants with special toxins.

We'll need to use mice to test it out then.

With that thought in mind, Jiang Yan casually planted the simple hydroponic crops.

Bean sprouts have an extremely fast growth cycle, and they can be harvested almost every few days.

It is a type of dietary fiber that is very easy to obtain.

Jiang Yan considered the various areas on the ship and decided to use the three-story flybridge, which was not needed for the time being, as "reclaimed land".

The area of ​​the flybridge exposed to direct sunlight is too large to access during the day, essentially leaving it abandoned.

It would be quite suitable to use it as a "rooftop vegetable garden".

However, we need to consider that the temperature and sunlight up there are too high and too strong, so we need to find a way to alleviate them.

Both of them had their own things to do, which made them complement each other well.

After noon, Jiang Yan personally cooked a meal, stir-frying several home-style dishes: stir-fried pork with chili peppers, braised beef brisket with poached eggs, stir-fried bok choy, and tomato egg soup.

Don't talk about waste. The fresh vegetables in the cold storage need to be eaten first, otherwise they will freeze and spoil soon.

This kind of enjoyment would not be unusual under normal circumstances, but with the end of the world approaching, it was indeed very satisfying for Jiang Yan and his companion, who ate almost everything.

Of course, it was mainly Su Muyun who ate the most.

"Can you eat that much?" Jiang Yan asked incredulously.

Yesterday was quite busy, so the two of them ate separately, making do with canned bread and the like. So he didn't know that Su Muyun's appetite was actually this great.

It eats more than this nearly 1.9-meter-tall strong man.

"I..." Su Muyun put down her chopsticks upon hearing this, but her hunger had not disappeared, so she began to pick at her food again in small bites.

"It's alright. High school is a time when you're growing physically, and you're also expending a lot of mental energy every day." Jiang Yan's gaze fell on her muscles, which were hidden under her thin clothes, and he seemed to be deep in thought.

Does having a savior destiny also have the effect of building muscle?

But he doesn't seem to feel any increase in strength.

"Okay, take a nap after dinner. I'll wake you up in the evening, and we'll go for a walk around the area. I remember there are a few small islands around here. Some islands are inhabited, while others only have a tower keeper."

Jiang Yan said he planned to go and take a look to confirm the situation.

Exploration map.

It is considered a crucial part of the post-apocalyptic world.

Those small islands, separated from the mainland by the sea, served as their natural rear bases.
