Looking at the increasingly convulsing Lu Feng, Liu You'er finally made up her mind to place her wound near his mouth. It seemed that Lu Feng sensed something; his nose twitched, and he grabbed Liu You'er's arm, eagerly latching onto her wound and continuously sucking her blood.
After an unknown amount of time, Liu You'er felt not only her energy beginning to wane but also her consciousness in her mind becoming hazy. Moreover, a brutal aura exclusive to Zombies spread within her heart, frightening her enough to quickly retract her arm.
However, Lu Feng seemed unsatisfied. He licked the black blood on his lips with a hint of lingering desire. Although his body had stopped convulsing, his originally deep brown pupils had completely turned blood red, his nails had turned black, and the wound had solidified into a black scar.
"Failed?"
Liu You'er thought regretfully, was it just luck that she hadn’t fully turned into a Zombie?
"Well, fine."
Liu You'er slowly moved her hand toward Lu Feng's fragile neck and softly said, "There really is no other way."
Just as she was about to exert force with her hand, Lu Feng's blood-red pupils turned toward her, leaving her momentarily stunned. Then, his hand gently grasped Liu You'er's wrist. His previously slightly timid voice became resolute and cold as he said, "I haven't turned into a monster yet; it seems your method worked."
In the laboratory, Wang Luojie's expression was no longer the refined demeanor it once had; he looked angrily at the man sitting at the computer desk and said, "Wasn't it said that as long as Liu You'er came along it would be fine? Wasn't it said that your new research has absolute suppression over Common Zombies? Wasn't it said that there would be no danger in the supermarket for an hour? Why did so many Zombies appear in less than forty minutes and even kill two of my teammates? Is this what you call a promise?"
The man at the computer desk listened quietly to Wang Luojie's questioning. In his hand, a test tube appeared as if by magic, containing an unknown liquid that emitted a faint glow, as if flames were dancing within it.
Wang Luojie stared at the test tube, momentarily breathless.
The man lazily said, "Drinking this will mutate your flames; they won't be extinguished by water, their temperature will double, and they can evolve with your level. So tell me, is it worth the lives of your teammates?"
Seeing Wang Luojie remain silent, he smirked and continued, "I admit this time was my mistake. Therefore, isn't my reward even more generous than before? The food brought out from the supermarket will not cost the base a single cent!"
Wang Luojie looked at the liquid in the Test Tube, murmuring slightly, his eyes fixed on the man, and said with a hint of reluctance, "Why her? Can't it be someone else?"
The man looked at him with a slightly mocking expression and said, "Since it's done, there's no need to put up a facade."
Wang Luojie lowered his head slightly, the fine strands of hair casting a shadow over his face, obscuring his expression. After a moment, he expressionlessly raised his head, took the Test Tube, and walked out of the laboratory with a somewhat desolate demeanor.
The man watched the door close and his demeanor became lazy again as he spoke to the air, "Thanks to you telling me about Liu You'er’s mutation in the suburbs, otherwise I wouldn't have discovered such an interesting thing!"
"Zii—"
The white wall slowly cracked open, and a graceful figure stepped out from within.
She parted her red lips and spoke in a melodious voice, "You're welcome. We each get what we need; I just hope you catch her soon and keep her locked in the laboratory for life to study her thoroughly!!!"
The man looked at the coldness in her eyes and chuckled, saying, "Don't worry~"
The woman said no more and walked out as well.
The man gazed at the beautiful silhouette of the woman and thought to himself, "Preparing so much food in advance was because she anticipated that Wang Luojie would soften his heart. She used her teammates' greed to restrain him so he couldn't regret leaving early. But then, knowing that turning off the lights was a dangerous signal, she still stayed there. Was it... specifically to sacrifice her teammates? It seems so based on the outcome. But what benefit does sacrificing teammates bring her? How does she know she won't die?"
The man furrowed his brow in apparent distress. After thinking for a while, he chuckled lightly and said, "Well, that monkey or whatever its name is would rather die than let anything happen to her." And with Wang Luojie's strength, although he couldn't protect others, he would definitely be safe himself. Once they escaped, given Wang Luojie's character, he would surely transfer his guilt over sacrificing teammates onto the remaining teammates who were also "calculated against."
"Heh—"
If it were really just for such a trivial reason to sacrifice teammates who are always by your side while putting oneself in danger, that would truly be... incredibly foolish!
The man's tone was cool and detached, carrying an indifferent air.
He feigned a heartfelt sigh before opening the Sixth Computer. On the screen appeared a pure white room of about one hundred square meters, inside which was a Little Zombie, around five or six years old. However, at that moment, due to the presence of the Little Zombie, the room was filled with the severed limbs of humans and Zombies, and the stench of dried blood clung to the walls, resembling hell itself.
Suddenly, the Little Zombie seemed to sense something and excitedly made "ugh... ugh..." sounds towards the camera, gesturing with its hands.
The man looked at the Little Zombie, revealing a rare expression of affection. He spoke gently to the screen, "It's okay, Quan Quan. You've been very obedient today. Although she escaped, I believe you can catch her again, right? Once you bring her back, big brother will be able to cure you!"
"Woo woo woo! How could this happen! Why did this happen? Woo woo woo! It's all my fault for being too weak. If I hadn't collapsed in the end, Sun Xiang and Lu Feng might not have died! It's all my fault! It's all my fault! Woo woo woo..."
At that moment, Qiaoyue sat on the sofa, crying like a pear blossom in the rain. Li Lei stood by helplessly, unsure how to comfort her. He could only regret having been soft-hearted and allowing his kind and sensible sister to go out for training, feeling deeply guilty.
"Knock knock knock."
Hearing the knocking sound from the entrance, Li Lei went to open the door and found Wang Luojie standing there.
Although Wang Luojie's expression seemed normal at that moment, his slightly haggard face and bloodshot eyes betrayed him. Li Lei sighed and patted Wang Luojie's shoulder firmly before turning back into the room to hand over his crying sister.
Wang Luojie watched as Li Lei entered the room and cast a complicated glance at Qiaoyue, who was crying in the hall. Listening to her self-reproaching words made him feel even more guilty. He slowly walked up to her, bent down, placed his hand on her head, and spoke softly, "It’s not your fault; it’s my mistake for putting you in danger. You’ve already tried your best; there’s no need to blame yourself!"
Upon hearing Wang Luojie's comforting words, Qiaoyue looked up in a daze, tears glistening on her eyelids. Her vulnerable appearance made Wang Luojie unable to resist pulling her into his embrace. He whispered in her ear, "However, there is one thing you are right about; I really should become stronger!"
The strong determination in Wang Luojie's tone caused a flicker of ruthless light to appear in Qiaoyue's eyes as she lay heartbroken in his arms; it was fleeting...
