At that very mont.
Bai Yue stayed in the villa, fidgety and anxiously pacing back and forth while looking outside of the villa from ti to ti. He tried to rush out several tis, but he was forcibly pulled back by Wu Qingfeng. Bai Yues plan was thwarted and he beca frustrated. He only felt that he was extrely incompetent at the mont. Sothing was happening to his brother, yet he could only stay here and be protected.
Finally, noises were heard outside the villa.
Nie Xiao and the others walked in through the door with gloomy, heavy expressions. Bai Yue hurriedly went to et them, but he couldnt find his brother after looking around. Wheres my brother?
Hearing his younger brothers voice, Bai i shrank and hid himself behind Luo Yunhai in fear. He lowered his head deeply, unwilling to expose his appearance.
Bai Yue seed to sense sothing. He raised his eyes and looked towards Luo Yunhai. He saw the familiar hem of clothes peeking out behind the latter and walked over. He finally let out a sigh of relief in his heart and chided, Brother, you finally ca back. Why did you run around all of a sudden
His words abruptly ca to a halt. Under the moonlight, Bai Yue eventually saw his brothers appearance. He was completely rooted in place, and the rims of his eyes imdiately flushed red.
Brother?
Dont look at ! Bai i covered his head in panic. With cheeks sared with tears and nowhere to hide, he curled up and squatted on the ground. The fact that such a proud and beautiful person had beco so vulnerable and so self-abased made Luo Yunhais heart squeeze in distress, and he also squatted down to hold Bai i in his arms.
Its okay, dont be afraid, dont cry!
Seeing his elder brothers appearance, Bai Yue also broke down and shed tears. He turned to look at Nie Xiao and the others. While clutching at his hair, his lips trembling, he roared, What the hell is going on? Didnt you guys protect my brother just now! Why did he beco a zombie when he ca back ahhh!
Confronted with Bai Yues accusation, Nie Xiao and their hearts felt heavy and filled with grief. Bai Yue couldnt be blad for misunderstanding. After all, no one could look on unfeelingly and keep calm after seeing their loved ones change.
Bai Yue turned back, pushed Luo Yunhai away, and rushed to hug Bai is shaking body. A warm white light instantly enveloped Bai i as he tried to cure his brother with his healing ability. Bai Yue stroked Bai is face with his slightly trembling hands, lightly tracing it as if he were treating a rare treasure.
Brother, dont be afraid. No matter what you beco, I will not turn my back on you. I will definitely cure you! Bai Yue pressed his warm cheek against Bai is palm that was void of temperature, tears streaming down his face.
Bai i stared at his younger brother in a daze, with tears continuously falling as if there were no end to it, his lips slightly trembling. Little Yue
Two very similar faces showed an extre sense of contradiction at that mont. They were totally different from each other, yet both so beautiful, carrying the utmost intense sorrow. The dark night was illuminated by the light of Bai Yues healing ability, almost resembling daylight.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the room felt sad and couldnt bear to look again a second ti; their eyes were moist and red. Luo Yunhai also shed bottled-up tears in distress. He clenched his jaw and let out a stifled sad groan.
But then at that mont, a miracle happened.
As Bai Yues healing ability was depleted, Bai is appearance eventually changed: all his skin and teeth began to regain vitality once more. It was like divine magic.
Oh my god!!!
Everyone was shocked and ecstatic at this scene. Even Bai i himself was stunned by the change and bewilderedly looked at his hands. If it werent for the crystal nuclei in his brain, he mightve really thought that he would no longer be a zombie.
The light of the ability faded, and Bai Yue fell into Bai is arms, exhausted. He looked up and saw that his brothers face had beco beautiful and radiant once again. He smiled and gasped for breath as he said, Brother, I told you I would cure you!
Bai is tears dripped again. He hugged his younger brothers head and kept sobbing loudly while kissing Bai Yues forehead. Thank you, Little Yue!
However, before his words ca to an end, the short-lived results lost their effect. Like a night-blooming cactus, Bai i reverted back to his original appearance, making everyones hearts tighten again.
How can this be?!!
Seeing such an unforeseen event, Bai Yue frantically straightened up and lifted his hand to exert his ability towards Bai i once again. However, the receiving party grabbed his hand.
Bai i smiled, with tears still glistening in his eyes, and shook his head. For him, even this fleeting change akin to a firework was sufficient enough to make him thoroughly see hope for survival and cheer up again.
He really was glad right now to have such a precious group of family and comrades.
Its enough already. Little Yue, dont worry. I am different from other zombies. I was not bitten and infected by other zombies, nor would I lose my sanity. I am a zombie that spontaneously mutated at the very beginning of the apocalypse.., a self-conscious zombie king.
Bai Yue stared at his elder brother in a trance, shedding tears in anguish. He put his hands to his eyes and cried. How can this be Why does my elder brother have to suffer these hardships.
Im fine now. Bai i stroked the top of Bai Yues head, took a deep breath, tried hard to calm his mood, and mustered the courage to tearfully gaze at everyone.
In the case that everyone wasnt afraid or disgusted of him, he had no reason to be imrsed in his sensitive and deaning emotions and not be arrogant.
Bai i pulled Bai Yue to stand and wiped the tears on his face. As if he were back to his original elegant and gentle appearance, he bowed to everyone, the corners of his mouth curving up, and said hoarsely, Im sorry. Ive forgotten my manners. Everyone, please sit down. I will now tell you everything I know.
Looking at Bai is uplifted appearance, everyone also cheered up and put away their distressed minds. This was the greatest respect for Bai i. Luo Yunhai also took Bai Yues hand and silently gave him the biggest encouragent and comfort.
***
This night was destined to be an inevitable night.
Sitting in the living room, everyone learned about everything that had happened to Bai i through his narration including the existence of the man in black as well as the tasks that the man in black had commanded Bai i to do.
I cannot go against that persons summons and will involuntarily surrender when I hear his voice. I feel an overwhelming pressure and threat from him. I am currently guessing that he might also be a zombiea zombie king whos stronger and higher-ranked than , so he is ordering to collect ability cores. Bai is countenance was calm as he continued, If not, then I do not know what his purpose is for gathering ability cores.
In fact, I stayed next to Jiang Qiu for these ability cores at first. It was just that after getting along with you all for so ti, I beca more and more unable to put my hand into motion. Bai i, who was sitting on the sofa, smiled sadly. I followed with an impure purpose, but then I began to feel reluctant to part with this temporary life that was like that of a normal person.
Everyone went slightly silent as they listened to Bai is words. Bai Yue couldnt help squeezing his elder brothers hand, as if he could feel the suffering and struggles the other had endured before. His heart ached so much that he could hardly breathe.
Bai i also held Bai Yues hand to appease him and continued to sketch his story in light shades. Later on, he ca to find twice, but I didnt have any ability cores to report back, so he almost killed . But before he could do so, he seed to have received so good news, and his attention was diverted at the last mont.
The communication device he had at the ti was very high-end, sothing I had never seen before, and it looked like a holographic projector, Bai i carefully recalled, then he continued, In short, he let go imdiately after receiving the news and left three potions before leaving. Now, this is the last one. Im relying on it to restore my appearance and disguise myself.
With that said, Bai i took out a dark-green reagent tube from his space, and the fluorescent liquid inside attracted everyones attention.
At this ti, MoYan, Possier, and their comrades, who were watching this scene, were even more convinced that all these disasters on Earth were caused by aliens. The holographic communicator in Bai Yues description was, without a doubt, the quantum brain in their hands, and the appearance and material of the reagent tube in front of them was clearly no different from the shape of the interstellars best-selling nutrient-solution container. If soone said that all this was a coincidence, they definitely wouldnt believe it. Thinking up to this point, MoYan and the others couldnt help grinding their teeth together in resentnt.
Bai Yue cautiously picked up the reagent tube, looked at the liquid inside, and keenly felt a trace of sothing strange. He said, Brother, it seems that theres also healing ability integrated inside.
Bai i smiled and rubbed Bai Yues head. En, I also sensed it from your abilities just now. The effects of the two are sowhat similar, only that the effects of pure ability do not last. Now, Ill leave it to you all to study, and I hope it can help you to so extent. Whether your brother can get better is all up to you.
Bai Yues eyes were red again. He held the reagent tube in his hand with care and nodded seriously. Brother, I will definitely cure you.
Nie Xiao looked at Bai i at this ti and said, When will the man in black co to find you?
Through Bai is words, everyone could more or less conclude that the current apocalypse was inseparable from the man in black whom Bai i talked about. The hatred in his heart at this ti was like it could overturn rivers and seas.
Bai i also beca serious at this ti and said carefully, He usually cos over when my reagents are almost used up, and he collects my ability cores in passing, but you shouldnt think about killing him for the ti being. I can feel it. He is very strong, awfully strongnone of you are his opponent.
At present, I can only fuse two ability cores within my body, but I dont know how many he has in his body. Having said that, Bai i showed the variant ability he acquired not long ago, needle rain. Ordinary zombies, at most, can fuse only one ability core. Currently, I have reached my limit by fusing two.
He still has thods we dont know of. He also understands the transformations of ability users very clearly. He patently told that the changes of ability cores were divided into three stages: solid state, semi-solid state, and the blended third stage. After the awakening, the ability core would be arduous to collect, Bai i explained as his brows furrowed.
Jiang Qiu suddenly saw the light at that ti. So it turns out you actually know that. Nie Xiao and I saw you leak this information about awakening and noticed your abnormality.
Bai i was slightly astonished and then admiringly said, Sure enough, you rcenaries are more insightful. I simply told you how you discovered it.
At this mont, Ning Feng scratched his head sowhat irately and depressedly, his teeth itching with hatred. Then how can we kill this behind-the-scenes boss! Aahhh, I want to go and kill him right now!!! Our lives have been ssed up by him, and hes definitely the one who spread the zombie virus!
Calm down first. Duan Wenyu held Ning Fengs hand, wrinkling his eyebrows in contemplation before appeasing him, We know too little information at the mont, and we cant just beat the grass and alarm the snake. From now on, we might have to rely on Bai i to get more information from that person and not fight unprepared battles.
Bai i nodded affirmatively. I will try my best to gain his trust and obtain further information about him. It doesnt seem like his purpose of gathering ability cores is solely to strengthen himself.
Then I will have to request this of you from now on. Nie Xiao looked at Bai i. He now regarded Bai i as a comrade in the sa trench from the bottom of his heart, and there was no more suspicion.
Luo Yunhai looked at Bai i with a bit of unease, with worry oozing from his eyes. Then when he sees you next ti and you havent collected enough ability cores, will he want to kill you again?
After hearing this, everyones hearts were on tenterhooks.
Bai i suddenly soothingly smiled at everyone. Dont worry, Ive already found a way. Previously, on the way to Haicheng, I accidentally discovered a thod to collect ability cores that will not hurt people. I ordered low-level zombies to find so ability cores from dead bodies. Many ability users have died at the beginning of the apocalypse before they could beco strong.
All my ability cores ca from this thod, including the ability core of ng Guangyao whom you all ntioned before. I dug it out from his corpse. I still couldnt kill a person, after all. Its impossible for , but fortunately, when I was at the end of my rope, God let find another way. Bai i smiled with tears falling. Otherwise, I really wouldnt know what to do.
I almost wanted to start with your group.
Hearing this, Luo Yunhai distressedly hugged Bai i. None of them could imagine the tornt and pain that Bai i had been enduring from these days.
Jiang Qius opinion of Bai i had also changed at this ti. He rarely said sappy words, and his eyes were slightly moist. You really did a good job. Youre probably both the stupidest and the best person I have ever seen.
In other words, he had beco a zombie, and he couldnt guarantee that he would stick to his heart. Hed beco a zombie with his mory intact and was ordered to attack his compatriots. The bitterness in it was hard to imagine. It was really too difficult for him to control himself, and it was a huge ordeal.
We all owe you a thank you. Nie Xiaos chest was also a little uncomfortable while his eyes were full of sincerity and gratitude as he spoke. Thinking of their smooth journey along the way, one could well imagine how much effort Bai i had put in silently. Even the smooth sail during the day was probably inseparable from Bai i as well.
Bai i smiled with reddened eyes. It was undoubtedly a very joyous and satisfying thing to be able to invest ti and energy in friendship. Everyone didnt turn vigilant, nor were they on guard against him just because he was a zombie.
The little hamster jumped onto Bai is body and affectionately rubbed against Bai is neck. Besides Nie Xiao and MoYan, he was the third person to receive this honor.
Chi~
The little hamster stickily chi-ed and looked at Bai i with concern. Hearing all the things Bai i had gone through made his tears nearly run dry.
Nie Xiao looked at the little hamster and translated with a smile, Xiao WuYi said that you are the most beautiful and outstanding person in the world. He likes you very much!!!
Even if Bai is appearance was that of a zombie at this mont, his mind was cleaner and more beautiful than a vast majority of human beings. Having seen all sorts of people in the apocalypse, Bai i was really very, very good.
Bai i cupped the little hamster and smiled with reddened eyes as he gently touched the little hamsters head. He said warmly, Thank you.
After telling all of the secrets in his heart, the heavy load Bai i had carried was finally lifted.
