Chapter 659: Always Carry Fire-Starting Tools with You

The dates marked in the notes indicated that the earliest entry was from six months ago.

Back then, Ling Mo only had a basic understanding of Psychic Power, but the notes already contained a systematic theory on it.

What Ling Mo found most incredible was that all the handwriting came from one person…

Wasn’t the development of Number 0 supposed to be a collaborative effort?

Regardless of how many people were involved, the more Ling Mo read, the more he felt that the true driving force behind this project was the person who wrote these notes.

Apart from the research on Psychic Power, this person often scribbled what seemed like crazy theories in the margins.

“Psychic Power users are merely the result of brain mutations. While ordinary people can’t become Superpower users, if we combine the Psychic Power of many individuals, wouldn’t it be at least as powerful as a Superpower user? It’s worth a try.”

Just the phrase “it’s worth a try” led to actual research.

This person must have held a significant position and reputation within Niepan at the time; otherwise, how could they have had such execution power…

“Although combining the Psychic Powers succeeded, the collective thoughts of many people were less effective than those of a single person. Why? If we could refine Psychic Power into pure energy and then infuse it into one person’s brain, would it create a being stronger than Number 0?”

“Psychic Power is like a form of telekinesis, but less abstract. Unlike other Superpower users who control their bodies, Psychic Power users control their minds. What if, while enhancing Psychic Power, one also trains their mind? Wouldn’t that accelerate the improvement? Methods to enhance…”

Seeing the messy handwriting trailing off at the bottom, Ling Mo turned the page.

To his frustration, the top half of the second page was completely charred. Not only were the words illegible, but even touching it would turn it into dust immediately.

“Exactly how do you enhance it?” Ling Mo wondered, frowning.

Indeed, he had always focused solely on increasing the intensity of his Psychic Power, never considering working on his thought processes.

When using Psychic Power, controlling mental energy primarily relies on a high level of concentration and quick mental reaction. This reaction ability actually includes thought processes.

But exactly how to train his mind, Ling Mo had no clue.

The usual methods certainly wouldn’t apply, but the notes ended abruptly at this point.

Unwilling to give up, Ling Mo flipped through a few more pages, but it seemed the note-taker didn’t care much about this matter and never mentioned it again.

However, the fact that this person could create Number 0 just from an idea made Ling Mo very interested in them.

Rich in theoretical knowledge and capable of realizing terrifying ideas, this person was undoubtedly a dangerous member within Niepan.

Moreover, it seemed this person held significant weight among the experimental team members at Niepan headquarters…

Unfortunately, after flipping through the notes, there was no signature to be found. Ling Mo reluctantly closed the notebook.

“Captain.”

Mu Chen’s voice came from outside. Ling Mo responded while carefully stuffing the notebook into his backpack.

“I found a lot of canned goods and bottled water, and some bullets. I gave them to your lady.” Mu Chen said as he opened the door.

He couldn’t help but glance in the direction of the thermal container, showing a hint of fear, then looked at Ling Mo with curiosity.

“Let me see those bottles.” Ling Mo immediately reached out and grabbed a medicine bottle, saying this nonchalantly.

“Oh, some of those were left by the previous experimenters,” Mu Chen replied casually.

Ling Mo’s face showed a hint of surprise. He decisively opened the bottle and sniffed it.

These bottles all emitted strange medicinal odors, but two of them had a familiar scent to Ling Mo.

Virus!

And it came from a Senior Zombie’s virus solution…

It seems that Niepan also had the idea of using this diluted virus to enhance the human body. However, the solution here was more likely used for injections into Number 0’s container.

A baby’s Psychic Power is limited. While it can restrict Number 0, it also hinders Number 0’s abilities.

But with this drug, it’s a different story…

Continuous stimulation can maximize the potential of this small body and might gradually change its physical constitution.

However, since it’s now a corpse, whether or not there were changes, and to what extent if any, Ling Mo had no way of knowing.

This drug is useless for the time being, but it could be perfect for Xu Shuhan, so he stuffed it into his bag.

Mu Chen saw this and couldn’t help but wonder: What does Ling Mo want with this stuff?

Seeing that there was nothing else in the Laboratory worth taking, Ling Mo signaled they could leave.

Before stepping out, Ling Mo took out a small bottle from his bag, poured it over several wooden doors, and then tossed a lit match inside.

Whoosh!

A flame instantly shot up, quickly turning the dry wooden door into a wall of fire.

The flickering firelight cast dancing shadows on their faces, and Mu Chen’s expression grew complex.

This fire symbolized the end of his past…

“But you carry fire-starting tools with you…” Mu Chen felt a shiver run down his spine.

Ye Lian and the others also stared at the flames, but it was unclear what they were thinking.

At the very least, it was certain that their thoughts were entirely different from Mu Chen’s.

Ye Lian’s gaze was particularly vacant. Vaguely, it seemed as if some familiar yet strange scenes flashed before her eyes.

The same flames, but the place she was in was a small room. She held a ladle, slowly stirring the soup in a pot.

“Girl, I’m starving,” a familiar voice called from outside.

“It’s almost ready. Hold on a bit more. Look, it’s your fault for not remembering how to cook. If you keep this up, you really will starve…”

The voice of reproach grew softer and more blurred.

“Girl?”

A clearer voice suddenly echoed in her ears, and Ye Lian’s pupils instantly contracted as her gaze shifted to Ling Mo.

Ling Mo gave Ye Lian a puzzled look and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Ye Lian stared at Ling Mo with her wide eyes, then slowly shook her head without saying a word.

“Alright, stop staring and let’s get moving. Before we head to headquarters, we need to make a stop at Cuihu,” Ling Mo said.

“So you haven’t forgotten about Cuihu, huh…” Mu Chen said, sounding disappointed.

However, his opinion was once again completely ignored, receiving no response whatsoever…

As Ling Mo and his group turned to leave, the old hospital was soon engulfed in flames, and the city of Dongming would soon become a complete wasteland…

Just as Ling Mo and the others left Dongming, an Off-road Vehicle arrived.

The vehicle made a sharp turn near the toll booth and came to a screeching halt beside the abandoned cars.

The car door opened, and a pair of feet in white sneakers stepped out, followed by a figure that looked somewhat frail.

She adjusted the brim of her baseball cap and walked over to a relatively fresh bloodstain, squatting down to touch it.

“How is it?”

A voice came from inside the car.

“Judging by the smell, it shouldn’t be more than a couple of days old,” she replied.

“Can you keep tracking?” the person in the car asked.

Just then, a Zombie suddenly appeared from behind a car, leaping towards the girl.

But the girl remained unfazed. With a swift movement, she met the Zombie head-on. A flash of cold light from her hand, and the Zombie’s abdomen burst with a spray of blood while it was still mid-air.

Thud!

The Zombie hit the ground hard but still reached for the girl’s leg with its arm.

The girl seemed prepared for this and jumped high, landing directly on the Zombie’s back. With a swift motion, she plunged her knife into the Zombie’s neck.

The person in the car clapped and said, “Your skills are getting better and better.”

The girl remained expressionless, sheathed her gleaming knife at her waist, and walked back towards the Off-road Vehicle. “Let’s go, keep searching.”

“Sigh, such a hassle…” the man said.

“Stop whining and let’s go,” the girl said impatiently.

As the Off-road Vehicle started up again, the girl’s eyes under the brim of her hat remained fixed on the bloodstain.

Ling Mo had been there…
