    Chapter 125

    Yao Jinglin and Lin Xiang, along with Zhang Yan and the others, did indeed find a large number of survivors, most of whom were students from the medical university. However, the supplies they carried were simply not enough to give everyone even a meager amount.

    Fortunately, Yao Jinglin and her group had seen many shops with intact storefronts on their way there. Knowing this, they knew how to lead a group out to search for supplies. After all, while they were sneaking around, they also figured out the distribution of zombies in the area. As long as they were cautious, they could completely solve everyone’s survival problems without disturbing the zombies.

    The students obviously had many questions, but Yao Jinglin didn’t give them a chance to ask. After suppressing the crowd’s voices, she calmly made deployments, calling on a few boys with some strength and Lin Xiang to take a few people to transport supplies back for everyone.

    The students, who had been panicking and didn’t know how to survive, finally felt half their anxieties lifted thanks to the arrival of Yao Jinglin and the others. As if they had finally found a backbone, they slowly got rid of their original despair. Under Yao Jinglin’s arrangement, everyone slowly began to do what they could.

    Previously, when they were here, they only wanted to hide temporarily, so they always wanted to leave to find a safer place to stay. But the reality was that everyone was in poor condition. Because they were hungry and thirsty, plus the fear and constant tension, many people were already on the verge of collapse. After all, they were just ordinary university students. They had never experienced such a terrifying and bloody scene, nor had they witnessed anyone’s death. Even knowing that this was not a qualified shelter that could allow them to survive, they no longer had the physical and mental strength to persist in leaving to find hope of survival.

    Therefore, their only hope was that a hero like a savior would appear at this time to rescue them. Although they had been waiting for the rescue team to appear, as time dragged on, everyone had gradually given up hope in this regard.

    They couldn’t count on the government and couldn’t save themselves, so it’s no wonder they felt despair.

    But just as they were trapped in a hopeless situation, knowing that there was no hope of breaking it, Yao Jinglin, who had never given up on her mission and had not given up on them, the survivors, appeared.

    Although at this time the entire rescue team was just her, the captain, plus one pitiful team member, they were still like a beam of redemption in the darkness, illuminating the path in front of everyone.

    Although the revitalized group hadn’t eaten or drunk anything yet, everyone’s spirits were completely different from before. They cleaned up the floor of the hall, found useful things and put them together. With many people and great strength, the entire space was naturally and quickly restored to a clean state.

    Because they had previously figured out the situation outside and the route to the target shops, several actions within a day were very smooth and there were no problems. A lot of supplies were searched, so everyone was able to eat something.

    With their bellies full, everyone’s originally uneasy mental state was also appeased. Using the cardboard and bedding that everyone had brought back, they were finally able to rest in shifts with peace of mind.

    However, while the students had time to rest, Yao Jinglin and Lin Xiang, as rescue personnel, still had to continue their mission – they gathered all the personnel here, arranged the students’ shift order, and then set off to find other survivors. Taking this place as the first successfully rescued stronghold, Yao Jinglin planned to gather the nearby survivors here without alarming the large group of zombies outside, and then continue to advance the route into the city. When they brought the next batch of survivors back here, they would also bring back some of the supplies that could be searched along the way. Before leaving, they also told Zhang Yan and the others, who were responsible for leading the students, that if they hadn’t returned by the time it was daylight again, they should organize several more rounds of supply search operations, after all, they still had to ensure the daily consumption of the people here.

    The students had a backbone and agreed to their respective arrangements. In this way, Yao Jinglin and Lin Xiang set off again after a short rest, continuing the search and rescue towards the more dangerous city center…

    Seeing Yin Suna’s reaction was not right, a few people were stunned for a while, then immediately threw away the cards in their hands and very tacitly grabbed each corner to completely control Yin Suna’s hands and feet.

    Of course, the difficult move that Yin Suna had just wanted to do, folding herself one hundred and eighty degrees, was also stopped by a few people.

    “Is this a secondary mutation? Or is it the virus assimilating and deepening the infection?” Liu Jie asked Yan Shaohang, who was grabbing Yin Suna’s ankle on the opposite side, while controlling one of Yin Suna’s hands that wanted to break free from the restraint.

    “It still depends on whether she can make it through in the end. If she makes it through, it means that her own consciousness and strengthened immune system have overcome the virus’s invasion. If she doesn’t make it through… she may die directly, or she may completely mutate into a high-level zombie…”

    Everyone’s physique is different, so after being infected with the initial virus, the mutant strains regenerated by the combination of the two are also different. Similarly, everyone’s performance during the process of being invaded or fused by the virus is naturally different. Just like the same cold, some people only have headaches and nasal congestion, some people have body aches, and some people feel a burning throat…

    At this time, Yin Suna, who had already begun to fight against the mutant virus, had already kicked the quilt on the ground before she was controlled by everyone. So, the obvious blue-purple blood vessels on her fair skin, like the traces of climbing ivy, were clearly revealed in front of everyone.

    When the distribution and direction of the arteries and veins gradually showed up with the invasion of the virus, the four people by the bed instantly dreamed back to their 3D human anatomy class when they were in school. Lines that looked like thin and messy twigs formed a fragile outline of a human figure in a tangled manner.

    “This… isn’t this the process of the virus trying to completely occupy the host’s body and seize dominance…” Yan Song muttered in a daze while staring at the blood vessel lines that were constantly pouring out of Yin Suna’s body.

    Seeing those blood lines spreading from the heart, Yin Suna’s eyes suddenly opened at the same time. Red quickly gathered from the position covered by the eyelids towards the middle of the black eyeballs. After completely covering it, the color gradually deepened from red to purple, to dark purple, to purple-black, and then to all black. The whole process was quiet and fast.
