Li Wei had been wanting to exchange a few words with Ling Mo, but seeing Ling Mos dumbfounded expression, and then looking at Su Qianrous retreating figure, walking away with her usual confident stride and swaying hips
After quickly comparing the two, Li Wei sympathetically nodded at Ling Mo and then hurriedly followed Su Qianrou with the docunts in his arms.
Ah ha, I didnt expect you two to co to an agreent so quickly. Well then, I also
Yuwen Xuan turned to leave but was suddenly held back by a tangible ntal Tentacle that Ling Mo had latched onto his collar.
Ah ha ha ha Strange, I cant seem to move
Yuwen Xuan muttered, while a layer of cold sweat ford on his forehead.
Crack
The sound of a fist being clenched ca from behind, accompanied by a chilling voice: Im done talking with her, but with you we havent even started, have we?
No, no, no, brother-in-law, you need to stay calm. Listen to , I was just trying to help Yalin No, I an, I was trying to secure benefits for you. Sure, whats mine is yours, and whats yours is still yours, but headquarters will definitely pay more attention to in the future Anyway, the more I can take advantage of them, the better, right? Besides, with Falcon being the biggest player in this region, its all to your benefit Ah!
A scream like that of a slaughtered pig suddenly rang out, causing several Air Force Corps soldiers who had just walked up the stairs to look up in astonishnt.
Did you guys hear sothing?
Hmm? Im not sure, maybe it was a crow?
Are there crows around here?
There might be
Within a few days, the Air Force Corps had been thoroughly purged and had beco completely Yuwen Xuans Falcon Second Camp.
During these days, everyone was busy
Jian Qi and his people were discussing the details of the deal with Zhang Yu and quickly took action.
A large number of fire mbers were airlifted directly into City X by helicopter, no longer having to risk traveling overland.
Even though Lucys previous efforts seed to have been in vain, the now irrelevant route was a good thing for both her and fire.
At least, there would be no more senseless sacrifices
However, for Zhang Yu, this was definitely a painful affair.
Each round-trip helicopter flight consud a significant amount of fuel. Although this was part of the agreent between the two parties, Zhang Yus face grew darker with each flight. Over several days, he looked as if he was suffering from chronic constipation, and everyone steered clear of him, fearing they might ignite the volcano brewing within him
Besides, the roars of anger emanating from the Commanding Officers office each day further reminded everyone not to provoke Zhang Yu
In just a few days, the forr mbers of the Air Force Corps quickly got to know their new superiors.
The hands-off boss Yuwen Xuan, the devilish coach Tom, and the housekeeper-like Zhang Yu
Although these people were of various characters, they lacked the habits of the forr Air Force Corps officers.
Just as Yuwen Xuan had said, for these people, they had simply changed bosses.
As long as the new boss was a bit better than the old one, they would quickly co to accept the reality.
After all, isnt it all about staying alive? Who you follow doesnt really matter, does it?
Ever since Su Qianrou flirted with Ling Mo that one ti, she seed to get hooked. Every day after finishing her essential tasks, she would drag Li Wei all over the building searching for Ling Mo.
But Ling Mo was well-prepared. While scouring the building for the supplies he needed, he used his psychic sensing abilities to avoid Su Qianrou.
It wasnt that Ling Mo was afraid of her; rather, he had this vague feeling
This woman shes not to be trifled with lightly
A week later, the relocation of Fire was nearly complete. Those who were still at the second camp included Jian Qi and a few of the seasoned Fire mbers, and then there was Lucy.
This iceberg violent woman had been sowhat distracted these past few days. She watched as Fire successfully settled in City X and even ford an alliance with the most powerful force, Falcon. Yet, a persistent shadow lood over Lucys heart
Mutation
The subtle changes in her body were becoming more and more apparent, to the point where even when she occasionally looked at her companions, her muscles would involuntarily tense up.
There were no thoughts of wanting to devour humans in her mind, but when facing others, her body was already instinctively ready to hunt.
This feeling was driving Lucy almost insane
Can she still go to City X with the Fire mbers like this?
But if she doesnt go, what should she do? Kill herself before the mutation takes over?
All these thoughts kept circulating in Lucys mind.
I dont want to die
Lucy thought of her friends and family They had mutated into monsters, trying to tear her apart, yet she still fought to live.
But now, for a reason she couldnt fathom, after being inexplicably infected, was she supposed to give up?
That girl Lucy suddenly pictured Ye Lian in her mind, She asked if zombies could also turn into sincere and benevolent beings
But can zombies beco sincere and benevolent beings?
Lucys heartbeat suddenly quickened.
If they could, then there was hope for her
Although becoming a zombie didnt an death, how many humans could accept such a thing?
Lucy certainly couldnt.
Just the thought of those grotesque yet familiar faces turned into zombies sent chills down her spine.
But if they knew nothing about it, why did she ask that question?
At the ti, it didnt seem significant, but now that she thought about it, Lucy was still sowhat concerned about Ye Lians deanor back then
Lucy.
Standing in the corridor lost in her thoughts, Lucy was startled by this sudden call, snapping back to reality.
She turned around to see who it was, and her eyes imdiately beca complex: Its you
Jian Qi had his hands in his pockets and walked over with a smile, saying, What are you thinking about? You seed really engrossed.
Nothing Its nothing, Lucy replied, forcing a twitch of her lips.
Suddenly encountering Jian Qi at such a ti, Lucy couldnt help feeling a bit guilty.
Perhaps there was also a tinge of disappointnt
It had been days, and although the second camp was not small, it was only so big. Yet, she hadnt bumped into that guy even once
Lucy was probably so preoccupied with the thought of her ongoing mutation and the fleeting ti that her mind was increasingly filled with thoughts about this, she couldnt help but be a bit self-deprecating.
The fleeting change in Lucys expression did not escape Jian Qis notice.
However, after a cold huff within himself, he approached her as if nothing was amiss. Sothing on your mind?
No
Lucy first denied it outright, then hesitated before giving Jian Qi a glance.
Should she ask?
Looking into Jian Qis earnest eyes, Lucy wavered but eventually couldnt help but say, Jian Qi, I want to ask you
When did you start researching the virus?
When?
Jian Qis eyes narrowed slightly as he leaned back against the wall, the shadow conveniently obscuring his facial expression. In the silent corridor, his voice sounded sowhat chilling: Why the sudden curiosity?
This trip to City X, its mainly for your research, isnt it? Lucy said.
Lucy felt nervous, unsure of how to broach the main topic of her inquiry.
What if Jian Qi noticed sothing amiss in her questioning, what should she do?
What Lucy didnt realize was that what Jian Qi noticed had nothing to do with what she was currently thinking about at all.
Why is Lucy, who never bothers with such things, suddenly asking this question? Her look just now and the way she looked at Ling Mo when we left together
Could it be that Ling Mo sent her to test ?
But even if Lucy told Ling Mo everything about the potion, he shouldnt be asking about it. The stuff isnt of much use to Psychics Heh, forget it, if I can confirm my suspicions, this might be a good opportunity to use her
Jian Qis thoughts were racing, but despite his strong analytical and observational skills, he never imagined that the Lucy before him was in the midst of a very special and slow mutation.
Lucy, weve known each other for so long, theres no need for beating around the bush Just ask what you want to know, Jian Qi said with his arms folded and in a low voice.
This
Lucy was initially startled, then bit her lip: You answer first, otherwise I dont even know how to start.
Since youre interested, I might as well tell you, Jian Qi said after a monts thought.
