Against everyone’s bewilderment and shock, Xia Na slowly took her sword back and spoke lowly, “The longer we drag it on, the longer he will suffer.”

It wasn’t difficult to realize it, but being cruel enough to make a move wasn’t something everyone could do.

“It’s obviously a mutated zombie, but you killed it so quickly…” Xia Na shifted her glance to Ling Mo and spoke with complicated expressions.

Ling Mo’s lips twitched and replied as he wiped away his nose blood, “Don’t look at me like that, am I also not injured?”

“Is he fine?” Xia Na glanced at Ling Mo deeply before approaching Liu Yuhao and Lu Xin.

“The bleeding stopped…” Although that had been said, Liu Yuhao’s expression was grim, and there were some things he couldn’t say straightforwardly in front of Lu Xin.

“Xia Na, come over for a second.”

Liu Yuhao packed up his first aid kit, helped Lu Xin sit down by the wall before whispering to Xia Na.

Ling Mo, who was standing on the side, heard it clearly and before he could open his mouth, Xia Na pulled him over, “You should come too.”

Although small, she acknowledged Ling Mo’s leader position in this small team, it was also an act of approval of Ling Mo’s ability. Perhaps this little girl completed accepted him when she first saw the corpse of the dead person.

Liu Yuhao took them around the shelves and whispered, “Lu Xin probably won’t make it…”

“I know.” Xia Na pursed her lips and replied.

Ling Mo raised his eyebrows and unconsciously glanced at Ye Lian.

The virus was infectious. Perhaps the large scale disaster was spread through the air, and no survivors mutated after the disaster broke out. It wasn’t difficult to comprehend as the virus would evolve, and this was displayed on Ye Lian. Now, it was likely that the virus spread through blood.

Because a minority of people could escape with an injured body, there were almost no mutated zombies, and even if there were, no one would know.

So now, Liu Yuhao and the others faced a difficult question. Will Lu Xin become a zombie? Should they kill him now, or observe for some time first? If he only injured his arm or feet, perhaps they would be able to save him by cutting them off, but the wound was on his back, and the mutated zombie’s hand was also full of blood. He wasn’t only a burden, but also a ticking bomb!

But the decision was on Xia Na and Liu Yuhao. Ling Mo already decided that if they choose to keep Lu Xin, he wouldn’t stay and go through this mess with them. They weren’t far from the Third Middle School, perhaps he could arrive sooner with Ye Lian. There, he will be able to look for more mutated zombies and speed up the process of helping Ye Lian to recover.

Despite the established friendship with Xia Na and Liu Yuhao, they weren’t close enough to affect his decision making power. Even when he decided to step up for them, he did so when he was confident he could do it.

Perhaps Liu Yuhao saw the unkindness in Ling Mo’s eyes, he mumbled probingly, “If we take him…”

“Don’t be stupid, how can we bring him along? Didn’t you see that no one dares to move any closer to him?” Although Xia Na was a girl, she was quite decisive and laughed bitterly at Liu Yuhao’s words.
