Chapter 754: Virus

Chapter 513 – Origin: Virus

“But humans would never allow themselves to get eliminated... Whether it is an ordinary person or a psychic, they are still different from a zombie...”

At this point, Lucy’s eyes flashed a strange color, and she reluctantly opened her mouth, “Zombies and Humans are still on opposing sides after all. At this moment, humans are struggling under the pressure of zombies to fight for living space. But what about in the future? As long as the human race doesn’t perish, they’ll continue to fight for resources to survive.”

“Yeah...”

Ling Mo couldn’t disagree with this statement.

Although humans are gradually gaining a foothold, the zombies that have evolved are also advancing.

“At present, it seems like the evolved zombies are still contained, but are they really?”

“If the zombies are still evolving even in areas with human activities, then what about the zombies in those areas without any human activities?”

“Not only did the virus give zombies a powerful ability to adapt to the environment, but it also allowed them to choose different evolutionary paths according to different environments.”

“These features are all incomparable to humans...”

“Currently, our wisdom and hot weapons are what we humans have. But I have a feeling that psychics will become our trump cards in the future. Although firearms are powerful, in the face of high-level zombies, the consumption of resources is just too much. On the contrary, psychics are more suitable for dealing with those high-level zombies.”

Lucy continued.

“All of these things... I already know. But what does this have anything to do with this drug?” Ling Mo asked.

“Every zombie has a chance to become a high-level zombie, but is it possible for an ordinary person to become a psychic?” Lucy said suddenly and then gave Ling Mo a meaningful look.

“You mean...” Ling Mo’s eyes instantly widened, and he turned his gaze to the drug.

Lucy nodded and said, “When he proposed this idea, I also found it difficult to believe... The appearance of psychics was around the same time as the zombies. It’s just that some people realized early they had powers, while others realized late... For example, some of our people in FIRE awoke their superpowers on the second day of the apocalypse.”

“Hmm...” This point coincided with Ling Mo’s conjecture.

“If I were to tell you that the appearance of psychics had nothing to do with the virus, would you believe it?” Lucy stared at Ling Mo and then let out a sigh, “At first, everyone found it difficult to accept this idea. They couldn’t believe that this damned virus might actually be the reason for their powers. But apart from the virus, we couldn’t find any other reasonable explanation or argument.”

“I know what you mean, and I’ve also heard similar words...”

Ling Mo said, “So basically, all the humans were infected by the virus before the apocalypse broke out, right? It’s just that the virus at that time didn’t mutate yet... When the virus finally evolved and began to mutate, most of the humans became zombies...”

“Yes, instead, a small part of the human population was probably immune to the virus at the early stages, or the virus in their bodies didn’t mutate... In short, they didn’t become part of the infected... And within this group of people, the virus in some of them underwent another mutation, giving them powers...” Lucy pursed her lips and said with difficulty.

To be told that they were also mutants, it was indeed difficult for psychics to accept this fact.

Most humans didn’t want to have anything to do with the zombies. The sudden rise of this race that had completely destroyed their lives and made them lose everything.

Most of them probably had a frightening experience, the ones that made you piss your pants or even cry. The despair of seeing your family, friends, and neighbors jump on you and savagely try to rip you apart, no one can easily accept this.

Even now, there are still some people that haven’t escaped from the shadow of this event. So having a personality change was a normal appearance...

Lucy deeply resonated with this point.

She used to be an ordinary girl that loved to cry and laugh. A girl that held tissue boxes while watching late-night romance dramas...

But now, when she thinks about how she is slowly mutating, she feels cold all over.

She squeezed her fist secretly, and after calming down, she continued, “After having this idea, the researcher raised another question. Could ordinary people become psychics based on this concept? Or at least make the psychics stronger so they could keep up with the zombie’s evolutionary speed. Only in this way can psychics become the backbone of humanity and support the survival of mankind in the continuous battle of survival.”

If Ling Mo hadn’t seen this bottle, he definitely wouldn’t have thought this was possible.

Everyone had their ideas, but to research it out, how could it be so simple?

But now, it seems like an expert has actually done it...

“This researcher is...”

Lucy struggled with her thoughts for a while, then gritted her teeth and said, “Originally... I wasn’t supposed to tell you if the research wasn’t complete. The mysterious reward I wanted to give you was actually a promise. As long as it was successful, I would definitely give you one of these drugs. Even if I’m gone one day, I will...”

She seemed to realize that she almost blurted out her secret and quickly coughed before continuing, “But this time... our Fire group caused you problems, yet you didn’t pursue it. I’m very grateful...”

“I know you’re not the type of person that’s easy to talk to if you have an advantage over someone. You’d at least try to blackmail us...” Lucy gave Ling Mo a bitter look, “but thank you anyways.”

Ling Mo didn’t realize that he was being called out at all and nodded, “Yeah!”

“What you have now can only be regarded as a prototype that can only be used as a powerful healing potion. Just like stimulants, it can instantly relieve pain and greatly increase physical strength. But to put it bluntly, it’s like drinking poison to overdraw the strength from one’s body. This drug is basically a life-saving tool for anyone in a battle between life and death. Zhen Zhi Yuan and his group stole these drugs to protect themselves. It’s just that I never expected them to take such risks just for the sake of benefits...”

Lucy stared at the medicine bottle and said emotionally, “Who knows what kind of side-effects they might have experienced if they had taken it...”

“That researcher, you just met him. His name is Jian Qi, which is an alias. I don’t have any other information about him.”

After listening to Lucy’s words, Ling Mo’s expression instantly froze.

Is it a coincidence?

The feeling that made his back turn numb when he shook hands with Jian Qi seemed to have returned to his body.

He clenched the bottle in his hand and thought carefully to himself, “They might not have stolen this drug by themselves if it’s him...”

Although it was just a feeling, it made Ling Mo restless since he rarely felt this kind of feeling.

The last time he felt this way was when he was still very weak, and was facing a mutant zombie for the first time.

That oppressive force and dangerous feeling that was hiding under that smiling face...

“Since...”

At this time, a stammering voice suddenly came from behind Ling Mo, “If... people can... mutate... then... Can zombies... become human?”

Ling Mo immediately turned around and found that Ye Lian was curiously looking at him and Lucy with her bright eyes.

Because of her zombie instincts, although Ye Lian was very gentle, she kept her distance from Lucy.

She rarely looked at Lucy like this, let alone speak to her actively.

Even Ling Mo was shocked, but what shocked him even more, was the question raised by Ye Lian.

This girl actually understood the conversation just now?

Moreover, she actually had her own question too...

“Zombie reverting back to a human?!”

Lucy’s eyes suddenly widened, and her heart started to beat violently.

For a moment, she almost thought that she was exposed, and she couldn’t help but reach for the machine gun at her side.

But upon remembering Ye Lian’s fighting capabilities, she immediately stopped.

“You... why are you asking about this...”

Lucy stared at Ye Lian with a complicated expression, and asked nervously.

Although she was very suspicious of Ling Mo and his group, her thoughts hadn’t jumped to the point of directly connecting them with the zombies.

On the contrary, she was cautiously on guard against them due to her own guilty conscience.
