“Eh?”

“The underground pipeline maintenance map?”

Fang Heng found the map from a pile of materials collected by the zombies and examined it in his hand.

There was an underground pipeline in the hospital!

In other words, the hospital had other exits besides the front entrance.

However, the entrance of the pipeline was on the basement level.

“Perhaps I can leave the town from that place.”

Fang Heng whispered and temporarily put away the blueprints.

He then shifted his gaze to a small box at the side.

In the box lay twelve tubular objects, about the size of a palm.

“Hmm? Sample collector?”

[Item: Sample collector]

Description: Meteorite Company’s latest generation of live sample collectors, safe, fast and efficient.

Additional description: This sample collector can only collect living organisms. Place the A-side of the sample collector on the living organism’s surface, press the red button, wait for 30 seconds and it will automatically complete the sample collection.

“This collector seems to be related to the mission.”

“So, other than directly killing the vine zombies, there are other ways to collect samples.”

Fang Heng took out a sample collector and held it in his hand to observe.

However, it could only collect living organisms.

Thinking of the vine zombies with strong close combat ability, Fang Heng couldn’t help but feel troubled.

He didn’t think that he could rush up and control the vine zombies for a full 30 seconds.

Unless the vine zombies were still dormant.

He wouldn’t force it. He would try again later when the opportunity comes.

Fang Heng carefully put away the collector and looked at the entrance of the hospital, which was being scratched by the zombies outside.

He didn’t have time to waste with the endless zombies outside.

Fang Heng left two zombies to repair the wooden door.

Then, he led the rest of the zombies back to the entrance of the buried underground passage.

The zombie clones took out their stone pickaxes and dug the passage again.

Half an hour later, the buried passage was completely dug out by the zombie clones.

Fang Heng raised the focused flamethrower.

There were less than two bottles of fuel left.

Most of the vine zombies had been killed in the afternoon. It was estimated that there were only about 50 vine zombies left in the morgue.

It was enough!

After entering the basement, the vine zombies gathered in twos and threes.

“Boom!”

Fang Heng didn’t say anything else. He turned on the focused flamethrower and killed them instantly.

Then, he killed his way back to the morgue at the end of the passage.

Because he was worried about the fire, Fang Heng had no choice but to go back and forth a few times. He led the vine zombies into the empty passage and killed them again.

[Hint: You have killed the corpse vine infected body*23. You have obtained 680 survival points. You have obtained a sample of the infection*46.]

[Hint: You have obtained a complete evolution crystal*18. You have obtained a Tier 1 evolution crystal*2.]

After a series of operations, the vine zombies in the morgue was completely cleaned up by Fang Heng.

“Unfortunately, I didn’t find a chance to use the sample collector.”

As Fang Heng spoke, he crushed the complete evolution crystal that he had found along the way.

Looking at it carefully, he was less than one-sixth of the experience points away from levelling up.

Fang Heng entered the morgue again. He turned on his flashlight and opened the door of the secret research room in the morgue.

The path in front of the secret research room was blocked by lush plants.

These plants were corpse vines!

Fang Heng didn’t dare to get too close. If he wasn’t careful and get infected by the corpse vines, then it would be troublesome.

But wouldn’t using a flamethrower in this small room cause a fire?

Eh? Wait, what is this?

Fang Heng was hesitating when he suddenly noticed that there were two other experiment manuals on the table.

[Hint: You have obtained detailed data of Alex’s research.]

[Hint: You have obtained detailed data of the corpse vine parasite infection experiment.]

[Hint: You can give the manual to the apocalypse merchant Vettel in exchange for additional survival points.]

Fang Heng first flipped open Alex’s research data.

The data in the manual were all related to the experimental subject Alex, including the amount of the virus injected, the injection environment and so on.

Looking at the rows of data, Fang Heng felt a headache.

He roughly knew that Alex’s physical strength was very strong, the kind that could break a wall with one punch.

Moreover, its life recovery ability was also very strong.

The more effective way to deal with Alex was a fire attack as he was more afraid of fire.

Fang Heng picked up another corpse vine parasite experimental data to check.

This record book was full of data about the corpse vine parasite infection.

A part of it was about how the corpse vine parasites completed their parasitism.

It looked very simple.

The five corpse vines in the secret laboratory were all products that had been modified hundreds of times. They were very easy to parasitize.

As long as the zombie was close to the corpse vine, the corpse vine would take the initiative to attack and forcefully complete the parasitism.

An ordinary corpse needed about seven days to complete the entire parasitism process.

“Eh?”

Fang Heng raised his eyebrows. He suddenly had an idea.

Originally, the corpse vines parasitized through the corpses, so could the zombies do it?

If the zombies could do it...

Could his zombie clone do it?

Fang Heng’s heart couldn’t help but thump violently.

If his zombie clone could be strengthened to the same level as the vine zombies, he would be able to kill mutated zombies!

However...

Fang Heng lowered his head to think again. He flipped to one of the pages of the experiment team’s notebook.

[4.5]

1. It’s parasitic. We found that the corpse vine had completely invaded the brain of the corpse and ‘digested’ its host’s head within seven days. After that, the corpse vine took over and controlled the corpse to move.

(The process was very bloody. The head of the corpse would explode on its own, and a plant-like tentacle would grow out of the neck.)

2. We needed more samples for testing.

3. To experiment quietly, the dean agreed to temporarily close the morgue.

Fang Heng lowered his head and said in a low voice while thinking, “To summarize, the corpse vine controls the corpse through parasitism.”

In other words, zombies and corpses could be parasitized as well.

If his zombie clone was controlled by the corpse vine and turned into a corpse vine parasite, would he lose control of his zombie clone?

“Who cares! Let’s give it a try!”

It was just a clone, and it could be resurrected after less than 20 hours, so Fang Heng didn’t feel bad about it.

Fang Heng immediately controlled a zombie to slowly approach the corpse vine.

“Chi! Chi! Chi!”

The corpse vine immediately reacted to the zombie.

The originally dangling vine instantly revived and quickly wrapped around the zombie.

In the blink of an eye, the zombie clone was tightly wrapped by the vine.

The corpse vine went into the zombie’s open mouth.

Fang Heng frowned.

Rows of game notifications were refreshed in the log.

[Hint: Your zombie has been infected by a special parasite.]

[Hiint: An abnormality has been detected.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone will be infected within 5 to 7 days.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is being enhanced... you will lose control of your zombie clone.]

[Hint: You can quickly complete the parasitism by consuming survival points and evolution crystal fragments. You can also remove the parasitic state and retain the positive enhancement effect.]

[Hint: This enhancement effect will be retained forever, even after death and resurrection.]
