Ch. 57



Lou Ai controlled the zombies to hold them still, and the dagger in her hand instantly killed the zombie in front of her.

These blue armored zombies lost their breath almost instantly.

"You guys collect the zombie crystal cores." After saying that, Lou Ai chased in the direction where Meng Yuanxi escaped.

"This... this is too fast. When I was fighting this kind of zombie, it took Xiao Pang and I ten minutes to find the right opportunity to kill the zombie." The soldier guarding the gate muttered, "Lou Ai is so powerful, why didn't she just go up and kill all these zombies?"

"You only see how powerful she is now, why don't you see that we still have so many burdens? Besides, it's not like her superpowers are endless. There are so many superpower users waiting behind her, will you be able to protect her when her superpowers run out? Or can I?" The tall soldier next to him echoed, "Her choice just now is the best for us."

The young soldier scratched his hair and started to clean the zombies' crystal cores with a dagger. The dead zombies' bodies became very soft and could be easily cut by sharp weapons. "Is that so? By the way, did those traitors who hid from the rain last night go out to chase Captain Xiao? Do you think there is really a way for ordinary people to gain superpowers?"

"Who knows, but I do know one thing, when they come back, our team will make them regret coming back here." The tall soldier squatted down, holding the crystal core, "I wonder if Master Lou Ai can get back before those psychics come back."

Lou Ai did not lose Meng Yuanxi.

When Meng Yuanxi saw that she hadn't caught up, he would considerately stop and give her some space to breathe.

After turning several turns, they walked into an old office building and stopped at the men's restroom at the far right corner on the fourth floor.

The temperature was extremely high in the summer, and the toilet was filled with a fermented smell. As soon as Lou Ai stepped in, she was dizzy by the smell that smelled like biological weapons. She took a big step back and just stood at the door of the toilet watching Meng Yuanxi's movements.

Meng Yuanxi dug out a few small pieces of paper from the toilet seat at the back, walked over, and handed them to Lou Ai: "Please give them to Lin Ze for me."

"Okay, how are you doing in the Changchun Laboratory?" Lou Ai took it, covered her mouth and nose, and asked while flipping through the small note.

There were some random sentences written on the note, which should be the coded language used for internal communication in the military.

"I have initially gained Chang Chun's trust. I participated in the testing, data, and experiments of the previous batch of zombies." Meng Yuanxi said, with a flash of admiration in his eyes, "Chang Chun is really a person with great scientific research talent."

"So can he really turn ordinary people into people with special powers?" Lou Ai asked.

Meng Yuanxi nodded: "But the price is to sacrifice a superpower and transplant the crystal core in the superpower's brain into the brain of an ordinary person. The risk of the operation is very high and the success rate is low, but as long as an ordinary person reaches a certain physical condition, he can become a superpower. Chang Chun has also researched a method to accelerate the upgrade of superpowers."

Lou Ai bit her lower lip. If this method were to be made public, the profits contained in it would be almost 100%. That was something crazy that she could imagine. Wouldn't ordinary people like high-ranking officials want to become superpowers? Wouldn't the leaders' family members want to become superpowers? Why are superpowers so popular? It's because they are rare and powerful. Who wouldn't yearn for power? 

"But don't worry. Changchun will not use this method externally for the time being. There are quite a few ordinary people among the experimental subjects who depend on Changchun Research Institute for survival. Our experiments will be perfected on them for the time being, and the method will not be leaked for at least three months." Meng Yuanxi's curly hair lay obediently on his head.

Lou Ai frowned and asked, "Were all the experiments thought up by Chang Chun?"

If Chang Chun was really that powerful, he would have become famous at the beginning of the end of the world. He would definitely not have not heard of his name for three years.

Excluding the possibility that Chang Chun's brain is not working well, the only possibility is that someone has sped up the research.

"I just made a few small suggestions in it." Meng Yuanxi's face was calm.

Lou Ai: "... a few?"

Meng Yuanxi: "Yeah, a little bit."

Lou Ai put the note into the space for safekeeping and said, "Okay, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."

"Wait, have you controlled the zombies in Changchun?" Meng Yuanxi stared at Lou Ai seriously, with a hint of worry in his light brown eyes.

Lou Ai nodded: "What's wrong?"

"Go back now and burn those zombies immediately. Don't leave any bodies. And Dong Chengyi and those psychics, burn them immediately if they are dead." Meng Yuanxi stroked the zipper on his chest with his slender fingers, thinking, "It's best to leave the warehouse where you are stationed immediately. When you leave, don't leave from Xiaocheng Village, go to the nearby Dacheng Village. Changchun has installed surveillance cameras on the zombies in Changchun. They are not screen surveillance, but energy surveillance. So when you control the zombies, if Changchun notices, he might guess that you can control the zombies."

"We have captured a person with special abilities who can control zombies in Xiaocheng Village. Research shows that she is just a failure in developing zombies, but she is a good breakthrough in restraining the zombie virus." Meng Yuanxi looked at Lou Ai, "When Changchun finds out, he will definitely want to capture you for experiments. In addition, with Dong Chengyi's death, you will have a hard time in his hands."

"Is Changchun far from here now?"

"He's with me, not far away, you need to hurry."

Lou Ai thought for a moment, "Then I have even less time to dawdle. I'll leave first."

Meng Yuanxi nodded: "Okay." He watched Lou Ai's figure leaving quickly, raised his hand to put on his hood, put his hands in his pockets, took two steps outside, and suddenly found a yellow Pikachu in the corner of the corridor. This was the small hairpin on Lou Ai's head just now. He picked it up, pinched the Pikachu's little tail, rubbed the furry red blush on his cheeks, put it in his pocket, and went downstairs.

Lou Ai crossed the streets and quickly found the location of the warehouse.

At the same time, in a dim laboratory in a small clinic, a baby-faced boy with red lips and white teeth was carefully observing the machine in front of him while placing the hexagonal crystal core in his hand into the device. In contrast to his tender and childish face, his fingers were covered with blue-black spots, the largest one extending from the middle finger to the entire back of his hand, as horrible as corpse spots.

Behind him stood two full rows of zombies, filling the small space.

Chang Chun looked up at Meng Yuanxi who had walked in. He smiled and wrote on the paper: "Did you find it?"

Meng Yuanxi nodded: "I found it. She is very powerful and strong. I saw her fighting with Dong Chengyi. She beat Dong Chengyi as if it was a joke. Most importantly, she can also fully control the zombies you made."

Chang Chun's eyes showed a hint of interest, and he lowered his head and wrote: "Let's go find her. After we have studied her thoroughly, you can start experiments based on me."

Meng Yuanxi had no expression on his face, only a hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "Okay."

In the experiment using Chang Chun as the experimental subject, Chang Chun finally began to relax.
