Chapter 58: Apocalypse Mission 7

They had already cut off three of the monster's tentacles and thrown them all into the cultivation tanks. Coincidentally, one of the cultivation tanks contained an unknown solution, and the tentacles were immediately corroded and melted. Lou Ling was a little happy about this accidental discovery and planned to use this solution to deal with the monster.

The monster seemed to sense that its tentacles had been corroded. It landed on the remaining three tentacles and quickly rushed towards Lou Ling. Lou Ling jumped onto one of the laboratory benches. Ignoring the fact that these sophisticated instruments were usually not allowed to be stepped on, she stepped directly on them, jumping and shuttling between them to avoid the monster's pursuit.

With a clang, the monster's tentacles whipped a metal plate and flew over. Lou Ling twisted sideways to avoid it, but her body inevitably bumped into a huge glass vessel next to her. The impact made her feel like her shoulder should be bruised, and the pain made her grit her teeth. However, she didn't dare to stop for a moment.

When she noticed the fishy wind coming from behind, Lou Ling rolled forward, avoiding the monster that was rushing towards her. The Tang saber swung over once again. This time, it slashed at the monster's upper eye, which was growing on the sarcoma. It just happened to burst its eye, causing it to open its mouth and let out a tragic scream. The scream sounded like a human cry, and Lou Ling felt goosebumps all over her body. She quickly avoided its attack.

After the monster's eye was injured, its movements were greatly reduced. Lou Ling retreated while directing the iron wire vine to interfere with the monster's movements, leading it to the cultivation tank containing the solution. After a lot of effort, she finally lured it into the cultivation tank. As soon as it entered, the monster's remaining three tentacles touched the solution. It screamed and tried to climb up again. Lou Ling was already prepared. She grabbed a metal plate next to her and pressed it down, then covered it on top, and moved some heavy objects to press on it.

When all this was done, before she could relax, a sudden heavy blow hit her back. Her whole body bounced high and hit the experimental table. Then her body slid down and curled up on the ground. Her internal organs were twisted into a ball, and her eyes were black. When she reacted, her throat was sweet, and she coughed up a mouthful of blood.

In her line of sight, the white figure was about to pounce on her again when it was suddenly frozen, as if a pause button had been pressed.

Lou Ling's pupils constricted. Only then could she clearly see the half-human, half-zombie. He was a young man with a face that was clean and handsome on one side, but the other side was the disgusting rot characteristic of zombies. His two eyes also showed different colors. The black pupils of a human had changed from their original coldness to a daze, while the white eyes of a zombie flickered with bloodthirsty madness. At this time, his chest was pierced with a big hole, where there was actually a living human heart. Blood flowed down, staining the white coat on his body.

He looked at her, his black eyes gradually becoming clearer after a daze, and his eyes revealed complex emotions. He opened his mouth and said in a slow, stuttering voice like a baby learning to speak for the first time, "Thank… Thank you…"

Then he closed his eyes and his body collapsed.

Lou Dian stood behind him, his handsome face covered in blood, his whole body in a sorry state. His slightly long fringe was stuck to his forehead with thick blood, and his whole body emitted a terrifying aura. His hand was still in an attacking posture, and the corners of his eyes were red.

In the quiet laboratory, there was only the sound of heavy breathing. After experiencing a moment of life and death, neither of them was calm. After a long while, Lou Dian slowly walked over, kicked the person on the ground to the side with one foot, came to her, slowly squatted down, and picked her up, who was curled up on the ground. He sat on the ground, hugged her tightly in his arms like a child, and buried his face in her neck.

Lou Ling suddenly felt a sense of gratitude for life in her heart, the kind of beautiful feeling that "we are all still alive" made her even grateful to the non-existent God. As long as they were all alive, the future was promising.

After both of them had recovered, Lou Dian carried her out of the laboratory and found a nearby lounge to heal their injuries.

Only then did Lou Ling feel the burning pain all over her body. The breath she exhaled seemed to carry a bloody smell. She knew that the white-clothed man's blow had seriously injured her. She might have internal bleeding. The pain made her break out in a cold sweat.

Lou Dian took out a mattress from the space and spread it on the ground, then spread soft bedding on it, and carefully carried her onto it. He first took off her clothes that had been wet with sweat and blood, and saw many abrasions and bruises on her fair body, and the corners of his eyes were a little red again. Finally, he took out the medicine box and carefully applied medicine to the wounds on her body. Some wounds were relatively large - the inside of her arm was cut with a large hole by metal, and he wrapped it with a bandage.

After dealing with the injuries on her body, he took out a set of loose pajamas for her to put on, then let her lie down, and covered her with a quilt to prevent the cold air in the underground laboratory from making her injuries worse.

"You… also deal with your injuries." Lou Ling said with difficulty, feeling a pain in her heart when she spoke. The air she exhaled still carried a bloody smell.

Seeing her pale face from the pain, Lou Dian reached out and touched her face, wiping the cold sweat from her forehead, and asked softly, "Does it hurt a lot?"

Of course it hurt, it hurt so much that she wanted to cry, but seeing the man's pain as if his beloved treasure had been destroyed, she immediately gritted her teeth, preferring to die from the pain than to speak. Women were such strange creatures sometimes. If it was just a small injury, in front of the man who loved her, she might act coquettishly and cry out in pain, making him panic and busy for her, while she secretly laughed maliciously in her heart; but if it really hurt to death, she would rather suffer herself and pretend that nothing had happened so that he wouldn't worry…

She exhaled again, reluctantly swallowed the fishy sweetness in her mouth, and urged him to hurry up and deal with the injuries on his body.

Lou Dian couldn't resist her. He took off the black vest on his body, revealing his strong but fair upper body. A man's skin so white should have looked like a sissy, but the beautifully lined muscles that contained explosive power didn't make people feel the slightest bit feminine, but added a bit of masculinity. He was the type to look thin in clothes and muscular when undressed.

He also had a lot of cuts on his body, most of which were caused by the half-human, half-zombie man. Maybe because he was half-zombie, his fingernails were hard, even sharper than a sharp weapon. There was even a wound on his back from his left shoulder blade to his spine. The bone was deep and the blood had solidified, but it still looked very scary. Fortunately, as long as the ability user was not seriously injured, they would not be infected with the zombie virus, and the blood that flowed out was bright red.

After Lou Ling finished reading, she struggled to get up again and applied medicine to the wound on his back, not letting go of any place.

They were like two injured beasts, applying medicine to each other and pitying each other's injuries.

After he finished applying the medicine and cleaned himself up, Lou Ling lay in the bedding. Waves of dizzy pain made her want to faint immediately. Lou Dian looked at her, his brows furrowed tightly. Now that there were no conditions, except for the external injuries that could be treated with medicine, the internal injuries could only rely on her own healing ability. Seeing her pretending to be calm, but her pursed lips revealed her discomfort from time to time, made him feel uncomfortable too.

"Xiao Ling, eat something before going to sleep."

Lou Ling really had no appetite, especially now that she was feeling so uncomfortable that she couldn't even eat dry food. But when he took out a bowl of hot preserved egg and lean meat porridge from the space, she couldn't help but be a little surprised. The fragrant smell did arouse her appetite.

"When did you…" She was speechless for a moment, thinking to herself: Damn, does this man stuff everything into the space? How big is that space?!

"I made it before the apocalypse." He replied lightly.

The porridge was cooked very thick, and the minced meat was very smooth. In the apocalypse, this bowl of porridge was indeed delicious. He fed her half a bowl, and seeing that she really couldn't drink anymore, he finished the rest himself, not嫌弃ing that she had eaten it.

After eating something to fill their stomachs, the two of them rinsed their mouths. Before she fell asleep, Lou Ling asked him what his plan was. They couldn't stay here just because she was injured now, right? They didn't know if there was any danger here yet.

"Let's stay here for one night and leave tomorrow when you're better." Lou Dian sat on the mattress and gently combed her hair with his five fingers.

Knowing that since he had made such a decision, then this place should be safe. Lou Ling thought for a while, then talked about the half-human, half-zombie young man who had caused them to be so badly injured. Thinking of his "thank you" when he was conscious before his death, and the deep sadness in his eyes, her heart felt a little heavy.

"He should be the No. 4 experimental subject mentioned in Dr. Fang's diary. He perfectly combined human genes with the zombie virus to become the most terrifying monster." Lou Dian said, also guessing in his heart. The half-human, half-zombie man should be the one who caused Lou Zhan and the others to lose here in his previous life. Except for his unsatisfactory appearance, he was indeed a perfect experimental subject. His brain was developed, and he could be fearless of mental attacks and even rebound mental power; his physical fitness had also reached a perfect level, and his strength could compete with the strong in the seventh year of the apocalypse.

Such a monster, no wonder so many strong people from the research institute were lost.

After chatting for a while, he found that she had fallen asleep, her face still pale. His lips pursed, and he looked at her face intently. Suddenly, he couldn't bear it anymore.


There was no day or night in the underground laboratory, so one could only judge the time by looking at the clock.

When Lou Ling woke up, she found the man who was sleeping with his arms around her. His slightly receding black hair revealed his smooth forehead, where there was a scar. Apart from applying some medicine, it hadn't been treated much. Fortunately, it had already formed a scar now. It seemed that the physique of the ability user was indeed better than that of ordinary people.

When Lou Ling woke up, she felt much better. Her heart no longer ached, and she could get up with the remaining strength, but if her movements were a little bigger, it would hurt.

Looking at the time, it was already six o'clock in the morning.

After the two woke up, they got up, changed into their combat uniforms, and ate something. Lou Dian put the things on the ground back into the space, and then left the place. Passing by yesterday's laboratory, they saw the white-clothed man on the ground again. As for the monster in the cultivation tank, it had been eroded by that solution into a pool of blood, turning the originally light blue solution into blood red, emitting a pungent smell that almost made people vomit.

Lou Dian walked over, carried the white-clothed man to an open space, took out environmentally friendly oil from the space and poured it on him, lit a fire and cremated him. Although this man was already dead, his body was the most attractive evolution agent for zombies. Although he didn't know if anyone or zombies would come here in the future, Lou Dian still decided to take precautions, cremate his body directly, and then throw the ashes into the cultivation tank, erasing his traces.

After doing all this, they went back to the first floor of the laboratory basement along yesterday's route.

After returning to the first floor, Lou Dian habitually spread out his mental power to check the situation. Now that he had obtained the information on the second floor of the laboratory building, he was not in a hurry. So he was not surprised to find that the ability users from the research institute had arrived on the first floor of the basement.

Suddenly, Lou Dian frowned slightly and said to Lou Ling, "Big brother is here at the lab building. Let's go and have a look."

After saying that, Lou Dian directly picked her up and ran forward. At this time, Lou Ling didn't act coquettishly and ask him to put her down. In her current situation, she was not suitable for running fast, which would only slow them down. She could only rely on him. Moreover, seeing his calm but slightly hasty manner, she knew that Lou Zhan's situation might not be very good.

Lou Zhan's situation was indeed not very good. They had encountered mutant beasts in the research institute. Most of these mutant beasts were developed by the research institute. After the researchers in the laboratory building were almost dead, they escaped from the cages that bound them and occupied the first floor of the laboratory building as their territory. And the first thing the ability users from the research institute faced when they came here were these mutant beasts, which made them flustered for a while.

Lou Zhan and the others ran forward, and behind them was a huge mutant spider that was chasing after them. This mutant spider was actually as tall as a person, with a bulging abdomen. The two tentacles on its head kept flicking, and the silk it spat out carried mucus, wrapping the ability user who was lagging behind with the silk. Then there was a scream, and the ability user's face was mostly corroded by the venom spat out by the spider, revealing white bones.

They quickly rushed into a passage. The passage was covered with white spider silk. When people walked in it, their shoes stuck to the mucus on the ground, and their walking speed slowed down. In this way, how could they not understand that they had been driven to its territory by the spider? They felt a sense of despair in their hearts.

Their survival instinct made them grit their teeth and run forward, not daring to relax at all.

The author has something to say: Today's goal:

Lou Ling's goal: I hope everyone is alive!

Lou Dian's goal: I hope she will never be hurt!
