I hacked through the chaotic world with my blade-Chapter 1395 - 334: Lin Fan: Let Me Build You a Grave
Lin Fan observed the situation of the Fusion Zombie, "Do you have the ability to foresee what’s going to happen, and that’s why you’re afraid? Don’t be scared. It’s just a small experiment, nothing to get too anxious about."
Upon hearing these words, the Fusion Zombie just wanted to turn and run, but Lin Fan instantly appeared in front of it, grabbing its arm. Even though flames were burning on the arm, they didn’t harm Lin Fan at all.
"Hmm, where is that burnt smell coming from?"
Lin Fan looked surprised and glanced down, noticing his clothes couldn’t withstand the flames and had begun to catch fire.
Ah, for the sake of science and research, these clothes that cost a few dozen bucks had to be sacrificed in the end.
Without much thought, regardless of the Fusion Zombie’s willingness, he dragged it into the water and directly tossed it in. The Fusion Zombie thrashed about in the water and was pulled out by Lin Fan moments later, its body still ablaze, unaffected by the water.
Approaching Professor Xia.
"It hasn’t extinguished, still very intense," Lin Fan said.
Professor Xia replied, "It seems the fire burning on its body is not the kind of flame we’re typically familiar with. Next, I want to experiment to see if this kind of flame can be extinguished in the absence of oxygen."
A new direction for experimentation emerged.
And the already evolved Fusion Zombie was quite bewildered. Initially, it was immersed in the joy of evolution, but now it felt confused and desperate, completely under the control of the other side without any power to resist.
"Alright, if we can learn something from it, then it’s all worth it." Lin Fan was willing to invest time in this area. Since the early apocalypse, he had been studying zombies. Though his research on zombies seemed deep, there remained many unknown areas.
Moving to a different location, in the laboratory, within a special glass container, Lin Fan continued holding onto the other, remaining in the container together. Professor Xia was worried that Lin Fan might suffocate, but Lin Fan assured Professor Xia to go ahead with the experiment without concern. Oxygen didn’t matter to him and wouldn’t have any effect.
Hawk and Ye Hong watched the whole process.
They were no longer naive newcomers shocked by everything. They regarded this research as a chance to broaden their knowledge.
Professor Xia manipulated the equipment, starting to extract air from the glass container.
According to common sense, without oxygen to support the burn, the fire would extinguish.
As the oxygen gradually got extracted from the glass container, Lin Fan felt no difference, merely not needing to breathe, while the flames on the Fusion Zombie he held onto continued to burn, remaining unaffected by the absence of oxygen.
"A miraculous flame; could it be the legendary Sanmai True Fire?"
Professor Xia mumbled to himself. When something can’t be explained scientifically, no matter how knowledgeable someone may be, they tend to lean towards mythology when faced with inexplicable phenomena.
It’s as if to say, this matter doesn’t fall under the purview of science; look to mythology instead.
"Lin, cut off a piece of tissue for research." In Professor Xia’s eyes, the evolved Fusion Zombie was the perfect specimen, with every part usable for study.
Lin Fan drew out his Frostmourne from behind his back and, catching the Fusion Zombie off guard, swiftly severed its arm. The Fusion Zombie stared blankly at Lin Fan, unable to feel the presence of its arm.
Lin Fan nodded with a smile toward it.
He could have just used a hand chop to sever the arm, but he had to admit, this evolved Fusion Zombie had made significant contributions, and for that, he was willing to show a bit of respect. His respect was to slash with a blade, not with his hand.
Based on current research, the fire’s nature exceeded expectations.
But do you think the experiment will end here?
Clearly, it won’t.
Any professor passionate about experimentation wouldn’t give up before thoroughly excavating the specimen.
If there were a ranking for the most tragic zombies among the different types of zombies, the Fusion Zombie now in Lin Fan’s grasp might indeed be the most unfortunate, yet it was also the most honorable.
This honor exists in the hearts of humans because it made substantial contributions to humanity’s exploration of zombies.
...
Russia.
Ogamoto Reiyi wandered aimlessly in a foreign land. The search for Jin Poshan was not going smoothly, as the ordinary zombies he encountered couldn’t cause him any trouble.
However, in this unclaimed country, the number of high-level zombies was not small. Some he had to avoid promptly, lest he become targeted and eaten.
He passed by a roadside bus stop and plopped down on a dust-covered seat.
"Baka... damn it."
Ogamoto Reiyi gazed up at the sky. The blue sky was beautiful, but the harsh reality before him was cruel. It seemed like he could see the cherry blossoms of his hometown and the charming slopes of the Ginza madams.
Even though each visit took a large toll, he willingly accepted it.
Isn’t money meant to be spent on women?
At this moment, Ogamoto Reiyi shook his head to dismiss the fantasies from his mind. Everything had become irretrievable, and his heart had been overtaken by hatred. Solely focused on revenge, he was willing to pay any cost.
"Jin Poshan, where on earth are you?"
The challenge of searching for someone in the vast expanses of Russia was truly high, but he never thought of giving up.
Ogamoto Reiyi held his head down, hands resting on his knees, staying still like a statue until an ordinary zombie groaning staggered past him, heading into the distance, waking him from his trance.
