TSIAGBICATMWI Chapter 83

Chapter 83 Hope

Lu Yunzhou carefully and selectively explained his experiences and the information he had gathered to Xie YunChuan, revealing everything without reservation.

Xie YunChuan wasn’t surprised when he heard Lu Yunzhou say that zombie crystal cores also contained viruses.

Even an ordinary object, if immersed in a highly poisonous environment for years, would be eroded by toxins to some extent. Not to mention zombie crystal cores, which were inherently produced by corpse poison.

He was just puzzled. Before, he had urgently needed to improve his strength, so he hadn’t thought too much and had swallowed many zombie crystal cores in a haphazard manner.

But until now, he hadn’t felt any discomfort or lost control for even a moment.

Was it because the amount he absorbed hadn’t reached the point of poisoning?

Perhaps… Thinking of the black mist that Little White had sucked out when healing Lu Yunzhou last night, Xie YunChuan speculated for a moment – could it be that Little White had cleared it for him without him knowing?

No, that’s not right, he immediately rejected this guess. After awakening his powers, especially with the upgrade of his powers, he became more and more sensitive to the energy fluctuations when using these powers. And as the number of times Luo Shuyou healed him increased, he could more and more clearly feel the different subtle feeling when the power acted on him.

Little White could never have cleared the virus for him without Xie YunChuan’s knowledge!

Then why?

It was always like this, every time a layer of fog was uncovered, more questions would follow, waiting for Xie YunChuan.

All the mysteries revolved around him – Shuyou, Little White, including himself. Each of them seemed to have countless questions hidden within, and only by clarifying these “whys” one by one could Shuyou have hope of returning to normal, Xie YunChuan could better use Little White’s abilities to protect Luo Shuyou in the end of the world, and he could better improve his own strength.

He thought a lot in his heart, but didn’t show it on his face at all.

Lu Yunzhou automatically attributed Xie YunChuan’s ability to be so powerful without being troubled by virus erosion to Little White, naturally assuming that Little White helped him.

…

“Even ability users might get infected and mutated after being bitten by zombies?” Xie YunChuan was quite interested in this question.

Because the previous information he received stated directly that ability users would not be infected with the virus. After that, he wasn’t very careful to avoid non-fatal injuries when fighting zombies.

If it was really as Lu Yunzhou said at this time, then there should be quite a few ability users who were misled by the previously spread news and, like Xie YunChuan, didn’t pay much attention to non-fatal injuries and got infected.

Xie YunChuan had also suffered many injuries. Similarly, he didn’t know why he wasn’t infected. Was it because the injuries and erosion weren’t enough, or some other factor?

Xie YunChuan was more inclined towards the latter. If absorbing so many crystal cores and being so badly injured before had no effect, then it was unlikely that Lu Yunzhou and the others would have discovered these two methods of infection now.

“Yes, and Cheng Xie has a test subject who was infected with the zombie virus.” Speaking of this, Lu Yunzhou’s eyes surged with hateful anger, and he sneered: “You also know this lucky guy – Lin Yi.”

That was why Lu Yunzhou later finally understood why Lin Yi would help Cheng Xie capture his former comrade, good friend, and companion who had gone through life and death together back to Cheng Xie for experiments.

Once a person is involved in matters of their own interests, they often like to abandon ethics and morality, only pursuing the maximization of benefits, especially when it comes to matters of life and death.

Lu Yunzhou could empathize with Lin Yi’s choice, because if it were him, facing the threat of imminent zombification, and Lu Yunzhou was the important experimental body in Cheng Xie’s mouth for researching the corpse poison serum, perhaps Lu Yunzhou himself would not be able to generously let go of the only hope for his survival.

Understanding is one thing, forgiveness is another.

Lu Yunzhou could understand Lin Yi’s choice in that situation, but this didn’t conflict with his idea of ​​regarding Lin Yi as an enemy and wanting to kill him quickly.

It’s not that all injuries that are forced should be forgiven and reconciled, and then be happy and beautiful. No matter what the reason, the injury has already been done, then revenge should be taken.

Every excruciating experimental experience after being captured made Lu Yunzhou’s hatred for Lin Yi even deeper.

The most terrible thing was falling into the abyss again after thinking he had gained a new life, and this result was still caused by his good friend whom he once trusted very much.

Lu Yunzhou would not forget the taste of being betrayed.

“Lin Yi?” Xie YunChuan sat up straight, intrigued, “Tell me in detail.”

“I don’t know how he got infected. As soon as I came here, I was caught and thrown into that pile of zombies. Later, after I awakened my power, Cheng Xie would drag me to the laboratory from time to time to draw blood and feed me medicine. I only accidentally heard Lin Yi’s argument with Cheng Xie and knew that he was already infected and about to lose control.”

Xie YunChuan then asked: “So what’s the situation now?”

“I don’t know how well the toxins have been cleared, but I saw Lin Yi a few days ago. He didn’t look abnormal, at least he should have controlled his mind.”

Xie YunChuan was a little excited in his heart, but continued to ask calmly on the surface, “Does that mean Cheng Xie has developed a virus serum?” Even if he hadn’t, even if he couldn’t completely eliminate the virus, at least what he researched had a certain effect.

“No, it should only be temporary control.” Lu Yunzhou knew what Xie YunChuan was thinking, he had to remind him:

“I know you want to cure Luo Shuyou, but I want to tell you that they are different, Luo Shuyou’s situation is completely different from Lin Yi’s.

After saying so much, I believe you can also understand that all the drugs Cheng Xie is currently developing are based on the fact that ability users are infected with the virus and have not yet completely zombified.

Since the news that ability users will not be infected with the virus could be spread before, it shows that ability users themselves should have far more anti-virus ability than ordinary people, and Luo Shuyou’s situation is very special.”

Besides Xie YunChuan, Lu Yunzhou was probably the one who knew Luo Shuyou’s experience best.

“Luo Shuyou was bitten at the very beginning of the end of the world. At that time, there may not have been any ability users born yet, and you and I have seen Luo Shuyou’s completely irrational and even violent side.

His situation cannot be equated with Lin Yi’s.”

Xie YunChuan frowned, “I said, he has healing abilities.”

Admittedly, he had to admit the particularity of Luo Shuyou’s situation, but he still subconsciously denied the assumption that Cheng Xie’s drugs were useless to Luo Shuyou.

Because he didn’t want to erase that little bit of hope immediately.
