Chapter 69
TL: Moonlit
As they watched, exposed and no longer hiding, the Undead let out a roar, swapping their positions in place. One by one, they leaped toward the nearby humans. Suddenly, several wooden spikes shot out from the ground, impaling the flea-like Undead in mid-air. Xiao Hen didnt waste a single shot and swiftly collected the heads.
Wen Qingling: A total of 38 Undead, a total of 1,900 ordinary crystal nuclei. Thank you for your patronage.
Chang Boheng:
Wen Chu:
The entire leadership team:
Did you already plan everything and were just waiting to clean up?
The survivors:
Their legs were still trembling, scared to death. Fortunately, they had a moment of enlightenment at this critical moment. If they had short-circuited their brains and ran with the monsters, they would have been turned into a human skewer and their heads would have exploded. That would have been an unjust death!
Chang Boheng was also shocked by their clean and efficient methods. He spoke a little awkwardly, H-have you finished cleaning?
Wen Qingling: Its clean.
Chang Boheng: If there are more monsters in the future
Wen Qingling thought for a moment. Prepare the crystal nuclei. I will send someone regularly to clean them for you.
Chang Boheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Qingling glanced at the survivors and kindly reminded them, You all need to work harder and strive to become monsters. That way, I can earn more crystal nuclei. As long as you choose to become monsters, no matter how well you hide, I will find you. Keep it up!
The survivors:
Is he a devil?!
Chang Boheng:
Wen Chu:
Dr. Wen just resolved a major crisis for them. They should be thanking him, so why do they feel like hes a devil?
Chang Boheng dismissed everyone and brought over the prepared crystal nuclei, personally handing them to Wen Qingling.
Wen Qingling took them and shook them in his hand. Can I release these people into your base?
Chang Boheng readily agreed, Of course.
Wen Chu added, Dr. Wen, can you introduce them to us? It would give us an idea.
Of course, the idea was to assess their importance!
Wen Qingling: Luo Zhi, Luo Fengjues birth father.
Chang Boheng and Wen Chu were both surprised. They knew that Wen Qingling and Luo Fengjue were brothers, and they also knew that Luo Fengjue couldnt enter Wen Qinglings base. But upon hearing Wen Qinglings words, they realized that Wen Qingling was protecting Luo Fengjues birth father. What an extraordinary brotherly love!
Chang Boheng and Wen Chu immediately shook hands with Luo Zhi politely, expressing that they knew Luo Fengjue and had worked together in a base. Luo Fengjues birth father was their birth father as well, and they would definitely take good care of him.
Luo Zhi was pleasantly surprised and thanked them profusely, wondering if his son had such great influence.
Wen Qingling: Xiong Shu and his little brothers.
Xiong Shu immediately grinned and stepped forward.
Wen Qingling pondered for a moment. They helped me collect several loads of mutated livestock before. They may not be my little brothers, but from now on, they will be part of your base. Xiong Shus abilities are quite interesting and should be helpful to you.
Xiong Shu pouted. As a tall and robust man over 1.8 meters, he felt wronged. Boss, dont you need us anymore? We live and die under your command. You cant just abandon us!
Wen Qingling: I dont need people, and I dont need ghosts. So youre useless to me.
Xiong Shu:
Chang Boheng and Wen Chu exchanged glances, unsure if Wen Qingling was telling the truth or not.
Wen Qingling called out to Xiao Hen, Lets go.
Boss! Xiong Shu wailed and rushed forward, hugging Wen Qinglings leg. Wen Qingling kicked him on the shoulder, and with a crack sound, his shoulder broke. Xiong Shu rolled on the ground in pain until he finally stopped, clutching his shoulder with a pale face.
Boss, Im still useful, I can still find mutated livestock for you! Boss, dont abandon me, dont even abandon the mutated livestock! Xiong Shu was shameless and had thick skin. He held onto Wen Qinglings leg and refused to let go, especially after seeing Wen Qinglings base. He couldnt afford to lose this backing!
Seeing the tall and sturdy man kneeling on the ground, crying with snot and tears, the others were horrified.
Mo Jing and the others admired Xiong Shus shamelessness. They couldnt do the same even if they were in a miserable state. Even if they were in a dire situation, they couldnt let go of their dignity, especially in front of their loved ones or former classmates.
Wen Qingling calculated seriously and indeed felt a bit at a loss. He had given Xiong Shu an automatic rifle, a box of ammunition, two corpse wolves, and saved him from the Nan Yan base, bringing him to the Xiang County base. He had given so much, but Xiong Shu had only found a few loads of mutated livestock for him. It wasnt cost-effective.
Wen Qinglings face turned cold. Forget the mutated livestock, I want food.
Xiong Shu was overjoyed. Okay, okay, as long as its something the boss needs, well definitely find it!
Mo Jing and the others were surprised. They originally thought Wen Qingling would refuse, but the current Wen Qingling was cold, ruthless, and merciless. He couldnt be swayed by anyones pleas. They never expected Xiong Shu to achieve it.
They couldnt figure out that Wen Qingling wouldnt let himself be at a loss. He had to get back more than what he gave.
Xiong Shu was supported by his subordinates to the side, preparing to find someone to help treat his injuries.
Wen Chu took the initiative to walk over. As a water-based esper, she had a healing ability called Water Therapy, but it was slower and consumed a lot of esper energy. She rarely used it unless necessary. If it werent for Xiong Shu still needing to work for Wen Qingling, she wouldnt have bothered. Her actions were a way of repaying Wen Qinglings favor.
Unfortunately, Wen Qingling refused to accept any passive favors.
Chang Boheng, curious, asked when he saw that Wen Qingling didnt mention the others, What about the others?
Wen Qingling had almost forgotten about Mo Jing and the others. They are not with us. You can go ask them yourself.
After saying that, Wen Qingling turned and left.
Mo Jing and the others:
Chang Boheng:
Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen returned to the base. Xiao Hen went to the city center to meet Ji Rong and Shi Chong, while Wen Qingling, mentally scanning, sensed that the four research assistants were waiting for him in his clinic. He and Xiao Hen separated, and he went back to the base first.
Have you made any progress with the research? Wen Qingling asked as soon as he entered.
The research assistants looked a bit awkward, exchanging glances, and it was Mu Yi who spoke up. The equipment you had someone retrieve a few days ago is not functional. It was damaged, and the existing equipment cannot conduct detailed research, so
Wen Qingling interrupted, So there are no results yet?
The four research assistants nodded simultaneously.
Wen Qingling said, Its fine. If you need any equipment, make a list, and Ill send someone to find it.
The four people:
Is this a problem with the research equipment? Or is it a problem in the field of research?
Shao Fei was straightforward and couldnt hold back his words. Even if we have the equipment, its not guaranteed that we will achieve results solely based on our own efforts. It might succeed, but it could also fail. Even if we succeed, it will take a long time. We are just assistants and havent reached the level of independent research. If we have the research equipment from the Central Mega City and can bring Meng Lao over, then we will definitely achieve results quickly.
The other three looked at Shao Fei. This guy was as outspoken as ever, not afraid that Wen Qingling would turn him back into a decaying zombie.
Wen Qingling pondered for a moment. Is it certain that with these two things, we will achieve results?
Shao Fei:
The other three:
Shao Fei nodded. Its definitely possible to achieve results.
Wen Qingling said, Good, Ill figure out a way.
The four people:
Hey! Is it really true that theyre going to bring the research equipment from the Central Mega City and Meng Lao here?!
Shi Chongs big house was almost completed. It was a huge project, and many civilized zombies were helping. This would be the residence of Wen Qingling and his family in the future. Out of respect for Wen Qingling, they also wanted to make it look beautiful.
When Ji Rong saw Xiao Hen coming alone and Wen Qingling not being there, he approached sneakily. Where is Dr. Wen?
Xiao Hen replied, He returned to the base.
Ji Rong breathed a sigh of relief. Thats good.
Xiao Hen raised an eyebrow. What are you up to now?
Ji Rong lowered his voice. Boss, compared to the Blood Corpse, who is more powerful?
Xiao Hen asked, Who do you think is more powerful, the Blood Corpse or Wen Qingling?
Ji Rong didnt hesitate. Of course, Dr. Wen is more powerful.
Xiao Hen said, I was personally transformed by Qingling. Who do you think is more powerful, me or the Blood Corpse?
Ji Rong replied, Definitely, Boss, you are more powerful.
Xiao Hen asked, Then why are you asking?
Ji Rong sneakily reached out his hand. Boss, let me borrow your hand for a moment.
Xiao Hen instinctively felt that he wanted to do something mischievous. What are you up to?
Ji Rong beckoned. Let me use it for a moment, Ill give it back soon.
Xiao Hen refused. Can a mans hand be borrowed so casually? Im not interested in you!
Ji Rong jumped up. Everyone has their own preferences. Boss, I really misjudged you!
Ji Rong pounced directly, grabbing Xiao Hens hand and biting down on his wrist. Xiao Hen hissed and threw Ji Rong, who was biting him, to the ground. When he looked at the bitten area, blood was already seeping out.
Xiao Hen:
Xiao Hen couldnt believe it. Are you crazy? You even bit a zombie?!
Ji Rong:
Ji Rong couldnt believe it. You have such thick skin, Boss. You almost broke my teeth!
Xiao Hen kicked him angrily. If you want to die, dont drag me down. Im already dirty enough!
If Wen Qingling finds out, he will definitely be disgusted with him!
Ji Rong smirked. Didnt Dr. Wen forbid you from biting me? So, if I bite you, it shouldnt be dirty, right?
Xiao Hen, infuriated, landed another punch. I got bitten by General once, and he was already very disgusted. Now you bite me too. Are you intentionally trying to mess with me?
Ji Rong whispered, Shh, as long as we dont say anything, Dr. Wen wont find out Suddenly, Ji Rong grabbed his own neck, his face twisted in pain, and the skin on his face began to peel off, revealing bloody flesh.
Xiao Hen didnt know what the transformation process was like when he turned himself into a zombie. Seeing Ji Rong suddenly change like this, he was a bit taken aback.
Shi Chong put down his work and ran over. When he saw Ji Rong rolling on the ground, he was also at a loss. He randomly grabbed a civilized zombie. Brother, is he is he normal like this?
The civilized zombie looked at them strangely. I used to be a zombie, but I havent experienced shedding my skin. However, I have experienced regeneration. You should ask Dr. Wen about this.
Shi Chong: Boss!
Xiao Hen stared at Ji Rong. In just a moment, Ji Rongs entire body had lost its skin, and he was covered in a bloody mess, looking very similar to the old Blood Corpse. Xiao Hen instinctively counted. When he reached 180 seconds, Ji Rong stopped struggling and his eyes went blank. He looked exactly like a second Blood Corpse.
Ji Rong couldnt believe his eyes as he looked at his new appearance. Did I switch places with the Blood Corpse?
His voice was hoarse and unpleasant, completely different from when he was human.
Ji Rong flipped over and jumped up, his movements agile and his sense of smell sharp. He looked at himself and then at Shi Chong. Suddenly, he burst into laughter. Old Shi, so this is what you taste like!
Shi Chong had a blank expression on his face. Brother, your smell is a bit strong.
A putrid smell filled the air!
Ji Rong was the source of the stench. He couldnt smell it himself and waved his hand, creating a large fireball and throwing it away.
Ji Rong chuckled with a hand on his hip. Im more badass than the Blood Corpse. My powers are still intact, hahaha hiccup!
His mouth split and his chin fell off.
Xiao Hen:
Shi Chong:
Ji Rong panicked and held his chin. He shouted in distress, Boss, help! I dont want to be a mouthless monster!
Xiao Hen looked at Ji Rongs bloody appearance with extreme disgust.
Shi Chong looked at their boss expressionlessly and said, Boss, its better to give up on the treatment. Ive always felt that hes not very bright.
Xiao Hen nodded in agreement, I feel the same way.
Ji Rong shouted, Im also very intelligent! Boss, your blood is special. If you use your blood for transformation, you can retain your powers! Why dont you hurry up and transform old Shi as well?
Xiao Hen looked at Ji Rongs bloody appearance and felt extremely disgusted.
