Chapter 57: Chapter 57

The others in the room looked at each other after hearing what Lin Yu said.

Having finished speaking, Lin Yu abruptly rolled up his sleeves, raised his left hand, and pulled out the dagger from the sheath tied around his thigh with his other hand.

“Brother Lin Yu, what are you doing?” Feng Yuming hurriedly asked as he was startled by Lin Yu’s sudden move.

“Look,” While speaking, he cut his own skin with the sharp dagger and left a bleeding wound on his hand. The red blood which looked exactly like that of healthy human beings immediately gushed out of the wound, dripping to the ground.

“The blood is red, this means your body is alright at the moment,” looking at Lin Yu’s blood, Li Zheng made a judgment. Lin Yu didn’t say anything but glanced at the four, maintaining his posture.

“The wound…” Among the two who hadn’t talked all this time, a tall man suddenly let out a word with a muffled voice.

Lin Yu looked at him and smiled. As he expected, this man, Lei Yao, who seemed to have strong muscles and a simple brain, looked a little dull, but was actually the most observant one in the room.

Reminded by Lei Yao, the others immediately focused their eyes on Lin Yu’s wound, then found that it was healing itself! His self-healing was happening very slowly, but was real!

Seeing this, all four of them widened their eyes in shock.

They all clearly knew that Lin Yu was an ordinary man without a super power. He didn’t have a healing power, so his body wouldn’t possibly be able to heal itself.

The pair of eyes on Lei Yao’s expressionless face slightly narrowed as he asked, “Is that… healing power?”

Lei Yao’s sentence was short, but the others understood his meaning. They immediately fixed their eyes on Lin Yu’s face again, waiting for him to give an answer.

Lin Yu shook his head and responded, “It’s not a superpower. It’s because my body condition has changed.”

That wasn’t his superpower. Instead, his body had somehow gained this self-healing ability, and it was only effective on himself.

The others had slight traces of disappointment flash across their eyes when they heard what Lin Yu said; but, what was more obvious in their eyes was a relief. Soon, they began to feel delighted for Lin Yu.

“Great! Now, we don’t have to worry that you might die because of slight carelessness!” Li Zheng sighed in relief and said.

Li Zheng said this because Lin Yu was the weakest in the team. He didn’t have any superpower, so his teammates needed to worry about his safety in every action.

But at that moment, Lin Yu gave a meaningful smile and said, “That’s not all… See this!”

While speaking, he put the dagger back into the sheath, then raised his right hand slightly with his palm up. After that, he concentratedly gazed at it.

As the others were wondering what he was doing, a black flame suddenly rose from his palm. The flame was small, only about an inch tall, standing on his palm, perfectly still without swaying at all.

At the sight of this small black flame, the others leaped backward simultaneously, running away in panic like startled cats with bristled fur.

Within a blink, the four had run as far away from Lin Yu as they could. They stood in the furthest corner that they could find from Lin Yu, staring at him with faces filled with a frightened look.

“The netherworld fire!” Lei Yao, who reacted the fastest and hid in the bathroom, stuck his head out from behind the door and shouted at Lin Yu’s palm. The typical expressionless look in his face was gone, replaced by fear and shock.

Fei Linchong reacted slightly slower than Lei Yao. Half of his head was stuck out below the latter’s, so that he could see Lin Yu.

Li Zheng and Feng Mingyu had hidden in the corners in front of Lin Yu.

Lin Yu was amused. He looked at them and said, “You don’t need to be you nervous. My netherworld fire is not even one percent as powerful as our chief leader’s! And, my fire has to touch a man to hurt him.”

While speaking, he put the fire out, then rereleased it; then, repeated over and over again, seemed to be having fun.

The other four were a little speechless at this point.

They hadn’t overreacted. Lin Yu’s fire was exactly the same as the fire of one of their Hades Base’s leaders. The Hades Base was very famous, for no other reason but that base leader’s mysterious fire power.

“Really? Oi, stop playing with it! Just put it out!” Fei Chonglin said with doubts when he saw that Lin Yu was playing with the fire quite joyfully. He felt terrified at the sight of that fire, and only wished that the latter could put it out as soon as possible and stop scaring the others.

Lin Hao clenched his fingers and put his right hand down, then said, “That is my superpower. You guessed it right, as it is the same kind of fire as our leader’s. But, my fire needs to touch its target to harm it. It won’t deliver any effect without direct contact, because it won’t release the toxic gas that way.”

Seeing him put the fire out, the four slowly and carefully walked out from where they were hiding. However, they no longer dared to get near him, staying about one and a half meters away from him.

“Brother Lin Yu, is that the superpower you triggered after you fell unconscious and woke back up? You were scratched by zombies, yet you survived… And in addition to that, you triggered a superpower! I never thought that could happen! That is too… magical!” Feng Mingyu said with curiosity.

He automatically turned back to glance the others after saying this, who all looked at Lin Yu and nodded.

They never heard that healthy human beings could survive after being wounded by zombies, and trigger superpowers on top of that. As far as they knew, all humans injured by zombies would be affected by the zombie virus, then slowly become zombies themselves. The zombie virus was seriously horrifying!

Almost all who were affected by the zombie virus died. No one in the few large bases had ever heard anything about the virus being able to trigger superpowers.

The powers of the current superpowered people in this post-apocalyptic world were either triggered when the old world ended, or by all other kinds of factors; but, the zombie virus wasn’t included.

Lin Yu didn’t become a zombie, which was already miraculous. And to everyone’s surprise, he actually triggered a superpower. That was just plain unbelievable!

Li Zheng stared at Lin Yu from head to toe, then asked with a confused look, “How did this happen? What exactly happened to your body?”

“I have no idea either. I became like this when I woke up,” said Lin Yu, shaking his head.

The others didn’t know what to say. Lin Yu was so lucky that even that could happen to him!

He was lucky enough to survive after being wounded by zombies and gained a self-healing ability; and upon that, he triggered a superpower!

He came out alive from a hopeless situation! And, merely his self-healing ability was enough to make the others jealous!
