Chapter 661: The Result of the Test

Lin Qiao looked at him and thought for a moment, then said, “I can’t always bite these zombies. If only I can send my virus into their bodies in a different way.”
She crossed her arms before her chest and raised a hand to rub her chin, then spread her fingers before her eyes.
Puff! Her sharp nails popped out.
She carried the virus. So, she supposed that she did not have to use her teeth. She really needed to figure out another way!
She thought for a moment, then turned and walked behind the house. Meanwhile, she said to Xie Dong, “Xie Dong, get me a few cups and a bottle of water.”
When Xie Dong walked behind the house with six empty gla.s.ses and a bottle of water, he saw that Lin Qiao had caught a zombie in a small s.p.a.ce, her fingernails sunk deeply into the zombie’s skin.
As Xie Dong went there, Lin Qiao relaxed her grip and watched the zombie stiffly fall to the ground. The other zombies shrank to the edge of the small building, as if they were hiding from some kind of disease. Clearly, they didn’t want to get close to Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao took a few steps backward and quietly observed the zombie on the ground.
After a couple of minutes, the zombie was still lying on the ground, not seeming to be in pain like the last few zombies had been through.
‘Is he dead?’
Lin Qiao squatted, observing the zombie with confusion. However, she found that the zombie didn’t die. Instead, the virus inside his body had been devoured by the virus from her, but the process happened way more slowly than what happened to those zombies who were bitten by her.
Her virus invaded the bodies of those zombies very quickly, but for this zombie, the spread speed of the virus was much slower. Therefore, it only made the zombie freeze and lie on the ground stiffly.
It seemed that the effects wouldn’t be shown quickly. So now, she needed to try the second method.
She stood up and turned, taking over a gla.s.s from Xie Dong’s hands. Then, she raised the other hand and made a fist. Her fingernails didn’t shrink, but sank into her palm. With that, tick and black blood flowed out of her plam and dripped into the gla.s.s.
“Roar!” The moment she shed blood, the zombies around all burst in roars alarmedly. They even tried to bury themselves into the edge of the small s.p.a.ce.
Xie Dong froze as well. He clenched his teeth, and couldn’t help but make a few steps backward.
Lin Qiao looked around, then turned to Xie Dong and sighed, “Just wait for me outside.”
Xie Dong nodded. He thought for a second, then brought the other gla.s.ses and the bottle of water into the small s.p.a.ce under the strong pressure, putting them behind Lin Qiao. Only after that did he turn and leave quickly.
Not to mention the zombies in the small s.p.a.ce where Lin Qiao was in, even the zombies in the other two small s.p.a.ces and those before the house had all sensed that the dangerous vibe from Lin Qiao was spreading aggressively and growing stronger.
What had been spreading together with that vibe was a faint aroma which was similar to the aroma of human flesh, except softer and lighter.
Lu Tianyi and Lin Kui didn’t know what was happening. As Xie Dong ran back to the house in a flurry, they both looked at him curiously.
Lin Kui didn’t feel as stressed as the zombie zombies did, yet he was afraid of that vibe, and was also very curious about it.
What was that female zombie doing back there?
After a short while of bloodshed, the wound on her palm stopped bleeding.
She glanced at the gla.s.s in her hand. The gla.s.s was only filled by twenty percent, but that small amount of blood already frightened those level-three zombies in the small s.p.a.ce so much that they didn’t even dare to move.
Lin Qiao poured the blood into the other gla.s.ses, then filled those gla.s.ses with water and diluted her blood at the ratio of ninety-five to five.
The water and her blood mixed together into a light-brown liquid.
After her blood was diluted, the zombies in the small s.p.a.ce finally calmed down a little. Meanwhile, the aroma from her blood faded.
“Come here,” Lin Qiao picked up a gla.s.s of diluted blood and waved at a female zombie who was the nearest to her.
“Roar…” The female zombie gave a roar with fear, yet didn’t dare to make a step toward Lin Qiao.
“I said come here! Aren’t you gonna follow my words?” Lin Qiao wore a cold face.
“Roar…” The female zombie immediately roared weakly and walked toward Lin Qiao. She didn’t want to, but had no choice.
As she came closer, Lin Qiao handed her the gla.s.s of diluted blood and said, “Drink it.”
The zombie took over the gla.s.s, her hand shaking slightly. She looked at the gla.s.s as if it was containing something horrible. However, she didn’t dare to disobey Lin Qiao. So, she froze with hesitation.
Lin Qiao didn’t hasten her, but stood there and waited for her to drink it.
She knew that her blood could affect the other zombies largely. However, she was speechless when she found that they were so scared of her blood.
Her blood seemed to be even scarier than herself.
At last, the female zombie closed her eyes and poured all the diluted blood in the gla.s.s into her mouth. It looked much like what a human would do. She gulped the diluted blood in just one breath.
After that, Lin Qiao reached out a hand and took the gla.s.s back, then looked at the female zombie and waited for her to react.
The female zombie drank the diluted blood, then covered her throat with both hands and staggered a few steps backward.
“Go over there,” Lin Qiao pointed at the s.p.a.ce’s edge.
The zombie shambled to that area with a painful face, then bent her knees and sat on the ground.
“Eh-hem… Eh…” Sitting on the ground, the zombie squeezed her throat and let out a series of strange sound. Lin Qiao slightly narrowed her eyes. With those special eyes of hers, she saw that the zombie’s body was changing, from her esophagus to her stomach.
Her blood which was diluted with the lake water delivered better effects than the virus from her teeth and nails, and the waiting time was shorter.
“Roarrrr…” Soon, the zombie started rolling on the ground. Seeing that, the other zombies were so frightened that they all moved to the other side. Meanwhile, the zombie whose skin was broken by her nails was still lying straight on the ground.
Different methods delivered different effects.
“Roarrrr…” The female zombie was clearly in a great pain as he screams grew shriller and shriller.
Lin Qiao watched her. In just a couple of minutes, the zombie stopped moving, then woke up not long afterward.
Lin Qiao then ordered another two zombies to come up and made them each drink a gla.s.s of diluted blood. The results turned out to be the same.
At last, she got to a conclusion: she was able to replace all the original zombie virus in the bodies of the other zombies by biting then, scratching them, or making them drink her diluted blood.
Her virus would quickly spread and reproduce in their bodies to maintain their body functions and provide them with energy.
Lin Qiao sighed with relief. That was exactly the result she wanted.
