Chapter 525: The Twisted Virus

The mutation of her body had brought Lucys senses closer and closer to those of the zombies

At such a close distance, she could acutely capture Jian Qis breathing, heartbeat, and even the pulsing of his veins.

She could even imagine reaching out her hand to tear open his body at the first opportunity

No wonder zombies are so deadly; humans are nothing but pure prey to them. Especially when close, this instinct is really hard to suppress. Thank goodness my will remains completely clear, otherwise

Lucy quietly pinched herself. It wasnt very painful, but rather somewhat stimulating

This masochistic physique is also necessary, isnt it? After regaining the sensation of pain, not only am I not affected by the severe pain, but I become even more ferocious due to the suffering What a perverse virus But

Lucy stole another glance at Jian Qi: What was he thinking just now?

Both of them had been seasoned members of Fire for a while, but if one were to count precisely, Jian Qi had joined a bit earlier than she had.

In fact, upon reflection, it seemed that no one had been there before Jian Qi

Yet as the oldest member of Fire, Jian Qi had never mentioned when Fire was established or who founded it

Lucy had once suspected that it might have been Jian Qi himself, but he had flatly denied it.

If it wasnt him, then what about the previous members of Fire?

Where had those true veteran members gone?

Since Fire didnt have a real leader, this sort of thing usually went unnoticed.

After all, they had come together simply for the added security in survival.

But now that she thought about it, Lucy suddenly felt like she couldnt quite understand her companion.

Fire must have had members before, right? Where had those true veteran members gone?

These were things Jian Qi had never mentioned

Thinking about it, I dont really know Jian Qi at all! Even though weve all adopted aliases, and no one asks about each others pasts, we still reveal bits and pieces about ourselves when we interact, except for this guy He seems to get along well with many, but no one truly knows what he does

After this sudden realization, Lucys view of Jian Qi shifted.

He seemed to be like Ling Mo, shrouded in many secrets

But compared to Ling Mo, Jian Qi gave her an even more ominous feeling.

Living in the same survivor base, it was only today that she felt she had begun to understand this companion a little.

However, these thoughts circulated in her mind only briefly before being washed away by her own pressing issues.

Mutation was the urgent matter she currently faced

Actually, Ive had the idea of studying the virus for a long time

Jian Qi leaned against the wall, speaking in a low voice, But it wasnt until I joined Fire that I truly had the conditions to conduct experiments. Before that, I was just dabbling in some minor experiments, never achieving satisfactory results, and the process was quite troublesome haha

He let out a cold laugh and quickly moved on from the subject, but the brief acceleration of his heartbeat did not escape Lucys notice.

What experiments? Lucy frowned slightly but didnt ponder it further, for Jian Qi had already continued speaking.

To thrive within Fire has been wonderful for me

Since I first began studying viruses, I have been utterly fascinated by them. But before, I lacked a clear direction; I was only trying to understand them. My ideas really began to take shape after I joined Fire.

Jian Qis voice remained gentle, but his tone sounded as if he were describing a lover: Not just to understand, but to truly master it

A chill ran up Lucys spine, and her eyes twitched.

A normal person talking about viruses with such an affectionate tone was nothing short of hair-raising and spine-chilling

However, mastering it isnt something just anyone can do, even if

Jian Qi stopped mid-sentence, shaking his head before reaching out and waving his hand slowly through the air.

His movements suggested he was touching a virus: The more you study it, the less you understand. Its like a beautiful woman clad in countless layers of clothing. You remove one layer only to find another, more beautiful one underneath. Its unclear how much you have to peel away, or when youll finally see the true essence of her

Uh Such a woman doesnt exist, and that description doesnt even fit a woman anymore Lucy murmured to herself.

She is so unattainable, yet treats everyone equally.

The virus has infected the entire human population, and no one can say for certain when this invisible and intangible entity came into existence.

But what everyone knows is that the day it broke out, it changed the whole world!

Jian Qis tone remained calm, yet Lucy could clearly feel his body trembling slightly

He was excited!

To describe the virus in such an eerie way and yet to take pleasure in it!

This was a revelation Lucy had never encountered before

With a furrowed brow and gritted teeth, Lucy continued to listen.

Moreover, its still evolving. Considering the immense power it has in its growth phase, Im genuinely curious about what kind of life forms it will create once it matures.

The evolution of zombies, the strengthening of psychics, can all be attributed to the evolution of the virus within them. The original homologous virus, once mutated, possessed completely different characteristics.

Zombies underwent physical transformation but suffered deficits in intellect and mental capacity;

Psychics seem to have no side effects, but their combat abilities are closely linked to their physical strength and mental power. Some possess powerful psychic abilities but are physically no different from ordinary people

Jian Qi paused for a moment as he said this, then slowly emerged from the shadows. Under the sunlight, his complexion seemed quite serene:

Have you ever thought about what it would be like to combine the two? Only after merging them together can one become a truly perfect organism!

Pfft!

A hybrid of zombies and Psychics? He sure had some wild ideas!

By his logic, wasnt I already a perfect organism?

But it wouldnt be long before I completely Mutated!

I know you dont believe it because it does sound incredible, but what if it succeeds? Jian Qi rubbed his hands together as he spoke.

How could that possibly be Lucy looked at Jian Qi in shock and said.

Heh, the virus is so complex, whats impossible about it?

Jian Qi said with an indifferent tone, Besides, its just a hypothesis.

However, Lucys psychic abilities allowed her to capture every emotional shift in Jian Qi with absolute clarity.

Of course, if I get the chance, I would indeed like to try it out.

After saying this, Jian Qi turned to Lucy with a smile on his face.

Yet, being stared at by Jian Qi, Lucy suddenly felt a chill run up from her feet.

His gaze seemed so calm but felt incredibly dangerous

This sensation was also new to her; it seemed the closer her body got to becoming a zombie, the sharper her perception of danger became.

By the way, before you ask me anything, I have something Id like to ask you.

Jian Qi began tentatively, What is your relationship with Ling Mo?

Thump, thump, thump

When the name Ling Mo was mentioned, Jian Qi appeared to maintain a natural expression, but his heartbeat quickened slightly.

A terrifying thought suddenly emerged in Lucys mind, and her eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Jian Qi:

You you

Whats wrong? Jian Qi glanced at Lucy with a puzzled look and asked, Dont overthink it, I was just asking

Lucy stared at Jian Qi for a good while before suddenly asking, Where did Zhen Zhiyuan and the rest get their Potion from?

The air suddenly became tense.

Lucys question was so abrupt that Jian Qi was caught off guard and couldnt react immediately.

By the time he regained his composure, what he saw was the angry look in Lucys eyes.
