Chapter 110: Kindred
Faced with such a flexible fellow, Yang Xiaoyou chose to ignore it and instead approached the window, lifting part of the blanket to glance outside.
However, the monster that the observing police officer had mentioned did not appear within Yang Xiaoyou's line of sight.
"I was planning to rest for a while, but it seems I won't even get a full night's sleep. Is this how they repay my hard work?" Yang Xiaoyou sighed as they pulled the blanket back down.
The only fortunate thing was that, for some unknown reason, that Licker had indeed retreated. However, having already dealt with four of them, it was surprising that a new Licker had appeared so quickly nearby.
Due to a lack of mental clarity, as long as there were suitable tools and corresponding methods, dealing with Lickers and the increasingly irrational Suppressors was relatively straightforward.
They could be treated like ferocious beasts; the only difference was their infection capabilities.
Yet their strength, speed, and unscientific agility—especially that tongue—were quite troublesome. Yang Xiaoyou sincerely did not want to face such creatures.
Unfortunately, reality was somewhat helpless.
"Xiao You, what should we do now? Is your injury healed? Can you still fight? You won't drag me down again, will you?" Huang Wei said with a fearful expression.
"Just barely managing," Yang Xiaoyou replied while considering the pros and cons of their next actions.
"Should we leave before it notices us? You really need to rest; forcing yourself to move with an injury could lead to irreversible consequences. Don't be reckless!" Chen Wuyou said, clearly frustrated.
"Of course I won't be reckless. However, the risk of going out now is even greater. Since it's nearby, do you think we can move faster than its pursuit while dodging the Corpses? Right now, this place still has plenty of Meat Shields; it's better than just having Huang Wei alone," Yang Xiaoyou said while scanning the other Survivors around them with a glimmer in their eyes.
Upon hearing this, Huang Wei wore a painfully helpless expression.
But before he could respond further, another voice came to his defense in an unexpected manner.
"What do you mean by that? Are you plotting something again? I warn you, if you cause trouble in front of me, I will make sure you face justice! Hmph! Your combat ability is well-known; those previous issues were indeed related to you!" Yang Xiaoyou's group spoke in Chinese, which the other Survivors couldn't understand. However, at that moment, another individual who had been entangled with Yang Xiaoyou for some time—the so-called Justice Partner—suddenly interjected.
Hearing such inappropriate comments from that person at this moment made Yang Xiaoyou feel an overwhelming urge to eliminate them right then and there. Did this fellow have no sense? Justice required strength as its backing.
Moreover,
"Just because you're involved doesn't mean anything. Who can prove it? You? Do you think your superiors would believe you? Bring out the evidence! Go back in time and take a photo for me if you want me to believe it," Yang Xiaoyou said with an incredulous expression.
Caught off guard by Yang Xiaoyou's expression and tone, Lin Min felt an overwhelming urge to spit blood in frustration. Tragically, he couldn't find anything to refute her words; he indeed had no evidence. Given the current situation, he couldn't afford to get too entangled in the matter. With a cold snort, he turned his head away, abandoning his initial intention to stop her from doing something bad.
Now, whatever she intended to do was merely an intention. To be questioned again before she could successfully carry it out would only serve to humiliate himself.
After throwing a sharp remark at the righteous messenger, Yang Xiaoyou urged several fellows lounging on the sofa to get up. She grabbed the sofa and moved it over to Charming Shadow's side, ensuring that even if something were to attack, they would have a buffer zone and wouldn't be the first target.
Due to Yang Xiaoyou's exaggerated display of overpowering the Captain of the Criminal Police, those fellows who had been occupying the sofa with their brutish demeanor stood up obediently, not daring to utter a word.
In a supermarket, a sickly-looking Malay man leaned against a shelf, appearing as if he might collapse at any moment while coughing and gasping for breath.
Next to him crouched two grotesque, muscular Lickers. Their strange behavior suggested they wanted to leave whenever he coughed or gasped, but once he fell silent, they seemed drawn back to him by some inexplicable force.
"Although there are still some flaws, we can’t afford to consider them now. We need this power; I will definitely serve the Chieftains." The man’s eyes were slightly red, and with a determined expression as if he had caught his breath, he motivated himself.
Seeing the terrifying creatures beside him that resembled loyal dogs brought a hint of satisfaction to his face. After resting for a while longer, he planned to take them out for a test.
"Uh, do you have something on your mind?" Yang Xiaoyou asked suddenly as she noticed Dream Butterfly sitting silently in that ridiculous duckbill cap.
Looking up from beneath the shadow of his hat, Dream Butterfly calmly replied, "The Queen Bee System allows control over Lickers by implanting 'Host of the Queen Bee' into their remaining instinctual brains. It’s a defective weapon in experimentation."
Upon hearing this response, Yang Xiaoyou's expression changed. Even during her last encounter with Lickers, her control had primarily involved implanting chips into their minds; she had never encountered this Queen Bee System!
If the early emergence of Lickers had already put Yang Xiaoyou on alert, then the sudden appearance of an unknown characteristic weighed heavily on her heart.
Back then, implanting chips into Lickers was manageable; although they were mass-produced biological weapons, most were cultivated by their organization.
However, if this Queen Bee System truly existed and large-scale infections occurred, it meant that even wild Lickers outside could potentially be controlled.
If that were the case, this weapon would be far too terrifying. The threat posed by the H Virus had mostly been contained due to its transmission issues.
Now that such variables had emerged, it was likely...
As for the authenticity of what she claimed—before she revealed Licker's characteristics, Yang Xiaoyou would have scoffed at it. But now, she couldn't help but believe it.
"How did you know that the Licker outside is being controlled by the other party?" Since things had come to this point, Yang Xiaoyou no longer bothered with subtle probing and asked directly.
"I am like you," Dream Butterfly said, pulling down the brim of her hat, uttering words that left everyone else perplexed.
However, upon hearing this, Yang Xiaoyou was momentarily stunned.
Like me.
In a certain laboratory, a researcher who was taking samples from Yang Xiaoyou looked at the writhing wound and clicked his tongue in both wonder and regret.
"It's a pity that the Original Infected Body was destroyed along with the traitor and Outsider; otherwise, with the characteristics of the first generation, we could have more easily deciphered your immortality mystery by comparing it side by side. Although in terms of biological evolutionary capability, you are far superior to her, both in spirit and form, some of her peculiar traits are still quite astonishing."
"Tsk. After becoming an Advanced Evolutionary Entity, the chances of conception when mating with Inferior Humans have significantly decreased. The human womb cannot withstand such violent genes. It seems neither Artificial Insemination nor Natural Fertilization would work."
Watching Yang Xiaoyou galloping across the pristine skin of a Blonde Beauty on a hospital bed, several Observers nearby couldn't help but express their regret.
"Indeed, if only the first generation were still alive. That damned traitor, that despicable IA."
