Chapter 40 (1/2)

It’s been more than a day since Ling Mo killed the zombies and dug out the gel part. He took out two of lower purity, gave them to Xia Na, and hid the rest carefully in his pockets.

To avoid getting infected by the virus, he intentionally put all the parts in a plastic bag.

Although he touched it with his hands before, it was only for a few seconds. If he had to put it close to him for a long time, he was disgusted by the thought of it before he worried about potential infection.

When Xia Na ate the parts yesterday, the gel’s appearance didn’t change at all. But after the night, it became like this.

There were quite a few pieces in it before, but they silently merged together and Ling Mo could barely separate it into two pieces. Despite this, the overall volume shrunk by over a half!

Did these viruses eat each other? Ling Mo lifted the plastic bag to his eyes and found out that they indeed looked different from before.

It was more transparent and redder… The red parts on it from before looked like veins spread inside it but now, the veins almost shrouded the gel part completely.

“What kind of virus is that…” Ling Mo was confused, but he had no knowledge in this area and all of his knowledge of the virus came from his observations of Ye Lian. But now that the virus became purer, it would be more useful for Ye Lian and this is certain.

However, when Ling Mo took out the gel part from the plastic bag, Xia Na’s emotions fluctuated.

Her eyes were shrouded by red as she stared closely at the gel part in Ling Mo’s hands.

Although she was infected and became a zombie, her situation was very different from a normal zombie and even different in her nature.

The biggest characteristic of normal zombies was irrational behavior and extreme violence when attacking. When Xia Na wasn’t on a rampage, she would constantly look confused and even give some reactions when she faced people she knew, such as Wang Ling. Not only this, but she would also turn to whoever called her name and this was definitely something normal zombies couldn’t do.

But in another aspect, Xia Na also kept the characteristics of a zombie completely: her ability to attack. Perhaps because Xia Na ate two gel parts during her infection, she wasn’t as strong as a zombie but her habits became the same as them, such as her merciless attacks against the same kind, and the desire for gel parts…

When Ling Mo took out two gel parts that were obviously refined, Ye Lian and even Xia Na showed desire towards it.

But Xia Na’s speed of devouring them was too fast! She just had two and it was not even forty-eight hours ago!

Ling Mo looked at Xia Na hesitantly, but a stingy sensation immediately pierced his brain as the redness in Xia Na’s eyes became brighter and brighter… It looked like she would break free of control and throw herself at him if he didn’t give it to her.

Ling Mo had no choice but to give one of them to Xia Na. After she took it, she cupped it in her hands like something extremely delicious and shoved it in her mouth…

But after Xia Na ate it, her body suddenly froze and her skin immediately turned into an odd, light red color.

Ling Mo was shocked and as he reached out to support her, he felt something was wrong. Judging by her appearances alone, Xia Na’s temperature should be high, but her skin was cold when he touched her!

Then, Ling Mo could see that Xia Na was struggling through her eyes. She even looked like she was mumbling in an attempt to speak. Not only that, her consciousness also fluctuated violently. If Ling Mo didn’t clench his teeth and try to maintain the connection, Xia Na would’ve broken free from him.

But this phenomenon only lasted for more than ten seconds before her head tilted to the side and she completely fainted.
