MTL - The Villainess Is Always Pretending to Be the Virgin Mary-Chapter 6
[There are many pink eye diseases in this world. 】
Chi Ying was silent.
Lu Yunfei wanted to say something, but Gu Chi stopped him lightly. The rest of the team members also took a deep breath.
"Give them something, and we have to continue on our way. It won't take too long."
On the contrary, the old man was a little embarrassed and said: "Let's stay and have something to eat. It's not convenient for you to travel, but we can still guarantee the basic electricity here, so we can cook you a hot meal."
Just as Gu Chi was about to refuse, the old man had already ordered the people inside to prepare food. He had no choice but to swallow the words of refusal silently.
He tilted his head and looked at Mu Yu.
"Mu Yu, give them the supplies."
Mu Yu kept a cold face, but still obeyed his order, and took out the water and food from the supermarket last night from the space.
"Is there any progress in the research institute?" Gu Chi asked.
The old man sighed, "Not yet. The cause of the zombie virus has not been found, and it is difficult to make a specific medicine at present. The only thing that has made some progress now is the research on the zombie crystal nucleus."
"What happened to the crystal nucleus?"
"Well, from the outbreak of the zombie virus to the present, the initial zombie samples we collected, compared with the current ones, can store at least 30% less energy!"
Gu Chi frowned, "Is it even 30%... My team members and I, our abilities are also constantly increasing, so we don't feel the changes in the zombies' strength."
Boom.
As he said this, the round metal door opened again. The ones who came in this time were a few people carrying the bodies of zombies, all wearing protective clothing.
The old man introduced: "They are usually responsible for taking samples outside. The dead zombies at the door are the best subjects for our experiments. Occasionally, when we are lucky, we can pick up a few who still have vital signs."
This seemed to be commonplace to Gu Chi and the others, and after a glance, they calmly looked away.
No one noticed that among the people carrying the zombie's body, one of them had a slightly stiff gait, and his movements were a little stuck.
"Alas... Now we kill the same number of zombies, and the energy consumed is almost twice as much as usual!" The old man sighed.
Gu Chi narrowed his eyes and said seriously, "It's not just us, they are also evolving."
"Yeah, I just don't know how far they can evolve."
"Where's the Ability Research Institute? How's their progress?"
The old man shook his head, "The same, there is no way. But I heard that they already have other methods, which are currently in the experimental stage."
Chi Ying silently digested the information he heard.
The system said before that there are two research institutes in total, and Gu Chi's is the Virus Research Institute, so what they are talking about now is the Ability Research Institute where Ye Wuhan is.
"Why tell them so much? These people have never studied virology, how could they understand?"
"Xiao Ren! Shut up!" The old man's face turned red with anger.
Chi Ying listened from behind, thinking that the person who spoke was called a "little man"? It was a bit outrageous, and I couldn't help but glanced at it.
It doesn't matter if you look at it, the "little man" was stunned when he saw her sticking out his head, staring straight at her with a pair of eyeballs with swollen eyelids.
Chi Ying felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze. She shrank her neck and turned her head back again, avoiding his gaze.
The villain is not forgiving. He changed his previous attitude towards Gu Chi, he didn't even say those eccentric words, and just stared blankly behind Gu Chi.
Seeing this scene, Song Shi was inexplicably happy. Originally, she was a little shy about Chi Ying's beauty surpassing her own, but now she was relieved.
Excessive beauty, without the ability to support it, will only become a disaster.
The way I am now, it's not easy to look coveted, and I have a beautiful and proud capital, which is just right.
Gu Chi naturally also noticed the change in this person's attitude, glanced back and immediately understood the reason. His complexion fell instantly, and he said coldly: "Lu Yunfei, pack your things, let's go."
"Hey..." The old man was a little anxious, "Didn't you say to leave after eating?"
Gu Chi was so angry right now that he didn't even want to give the old man any face. He rolled his eyelids, "I'm afraid we can't bear the food here."
"this…"
"Yeah, let's go after a meal!" It was the one surnamed Ren who spoke. He stared at Chi Ying without blinking, showing his obscenity.
"Heh." Gu Chi just sneered. If it weren't for this guy's usefulness in researching zombie viruses, he would have already started beating people.
However, this person didn't notice the abnormal atmosphere at all, and threw out the bait self-righteously, "We have meat here, chicken grown in the laboratory, you can't eat it outside! These days, all the frozen meat outside has gone bad." .”
Gu Chi turned around and opened the metal door directly with his authority.
Seeing that they were really going to leave, Xiao Ren immediately stepped forward and walked to Chi Ying, "What's your name? Let me tell you, staying in our laboratory is much safer than taking risks outside with them."
Chi Ying tilted her head, did not answer his question, but asked instead: "You said there is meat here..."
Seeing her asking this, Xiao Ren immediately became excited, "Yes, there is meat! You stay to eat, they just made your portion, if you all leave, what a waste!"
"Well…"
Gu Chi, who had already placed the ladder, heard their conversation and turned to look at Chi Ying. He pursed his lips, the curvature of his lips felt straight and straight, looking a bit cold.
"That's not necessary. You eat our share, you need to eat more." Chi Ying said with a smile.
Xiao Ren was taken aback when he heard the words, and subconsciously said, "Why?"
Chi Ying raised her hand, touched her head, and then made several gestures in the air at the same height, "Look! You're not as tall as me!"
"You are thin and weak, and you are not tall. Eat more to grow your body."
"Pfft." Lu Yunfei smiled ruthlessly, "Yeah, you eat more food, there is meat and so on, maybe you can still have a go."
"Yes." Mu Yu stepped forward and hooked Chi Ying's shoulders, and also looked at Xiao Ren, "How old are you this year, if you pass 20, it won't be too long... Hurry up."
"You guys!" Xiao Ren's face turned pale.
Mu Yu hooked Chi Ying and turned around neatly, leading her up the stairs a few steps.
The rest of the people ignored him and quickly climbed up the ladder with their things on their backs.
Gu Chi was the last one. The moment he stepped on the ladder, he turned his head and looked at Xiao Ren with a cold gaze.
He raised the corners of his lips.
"come on."
When Xiao Ren realized it and wanted to yell, the metal door was slowly closed.
When Chi Ying came out of the underground laboratory, she found that the eyes of everyone looking at her were not right. Especially Mu Yu and Lu Yunfei looked at her with gratified eyes, which made her a little awkward.
Even Gu Chi seemed to be in a weirdly good mood.
Chi Ying: "..."
What, what's wrong?
[Because of their identities, it is inconvenient for them to say serious things to their colleagues, and the host helped them **** them off. 】
Chi Ying: Oh~
She also raised the corners of her mouth, in a good mood. In fact, it was because she couldn't get used to that villain at that time, she impulsively imitated a few words of yin and yang.
The system looked at her with emotion.
It discovered that when Chi Ying got along with these people, she actually had a vague understanding of many things, but her intuition was astonishingly accurate.
When getting into the car, Mu Yu greeted her with a smile: "Do you want to take our car?"
Chi Ying glanced at Song Shi, who was not looking well, and shook her head.
"Okay." Mu Yu was a little disappointed.
Those reluctant eyes made Chi Ying's scalp tingle.
After getting in the car and starting again, Chi Ying was still sitting behind and cutting her cross. Lu Yunfei, on the other hand, chattered endlessly to Gu Chi about everything that happened in the laboratory just now, and occasionally cue Chi Ying suddenly, praising her for her courage in resisting evil forces.
After about an hour, they were finally out of town.
Sizzle...
Lu Yunfei glanced at the communicator that made the sound.
"Captain, it's from the headquarters."
Gu Chi turned it on and connected.
"Hello, Virus Research Institute, Commander No. 1 Gu Chi."
"Captain Gu! We detected that the base near you has been invaded by zombies, and the base sent out a distress signal just now!"
Gu Chi frowned, and said, "Report the coordinates. What's the base number?"
"A downtown area, base 36."
Lu Yunfei slammed on the brakes, and Gu Chi's movements also stopped suddenly.
No. 36...
It was the research institute where they had just sent supplies.
Gu Chi quickly switched the communication device, and said, "Lin Xun, go back the way you came!"
…
Even if the two cars drove at the fastest speed, it took a full half an hour to arrive.
Gu Chi kept his face sullen all the way, and the rest of them were in no mood to speak.
Even if no one mentions it, they all know it well. Half an hour... I am afraid that there are no living people in Base 36.
He turned to Chi Ying and said, "You don't have any abilities, so just stay in the car. If there's any situation, use this..."
He pointed to the communicator in front of the car.
"Oh…"
While making arrangements, Gu Chi suddenly caught a glimpse of zombies staring at them all around.
"...Forget it, you follow me."
"it is good."
…
In the underground garage, the round metal door that was supposed to be closed was wide open. And the number of zombies on the ground was three times more than when they first came. Gu Chi and the others had to step on two thick layers of zombie corpses to barely pass.
After quickly cleaning up the living zombies in the garage, they were ready to go down to check the situation.
"Captain! This." Lu Yunfei pointed to the attack point on the wall that was blocked by unknown pieces of flesh.
Gu Chi walked over and pushed away the pieces of meat, revealing the muzzle with the smell of smoke left inside.
There are more than 30 such places in the entire underground garage, and there are sufficient ammunition stored in them.
Originally, these things were used by people in the laboratory to deal with zombies. There has never been a flaw in this method before, not to mention that all attack points are now consciously blocked...
He immediately understood why there were several times more zombie corpses on the ground in just half an hour.
They launched a collective attack, some used to block the fire, and the other part found a gap to block the attack point. Even for this reason, they can choose to sacrifice most of their kind.
Gu Chi gritted his teeth, "They have become smarter."
