On the cruise ship, the rooms of Chen Mu and the others were closed.

It's been three hours since they boarded the cruise ship, and by this time, they should all be resting.

However, a door suddenly and silently opened, and a pair of eyes peeked out from inside.

After noticing nothing, the owner of the eyes walked gently to the deck.

This person was Dong Hongfeng, but at this time, his face was a little pale and he looked a little weak.

Just after boarding the cruise ship, Dong Hongfeng entered a small room under the pretext of being tired. Knowing this, he walked out of the room.

Glancing around, the wind was calm and safe. Looking at the other rooms, the doors were closed and there was no movement.

Dong Hongfeng waited on the deck for a while, but still didn't find any signs of Zhao Yue and Chen Mu walking out of the room, so he breathed a deep sigh of relief.

He clutched his waist and stepped into the exchange ball.

First of all, Dong Hongfeng evaluated his mission and quickly got the watch information.

"Overall score: 632 points, overall evaluation: C+"

Seeing this evaluation, Dong Hongfeng sighed in his heart, a little regretful. If you go one level higher and reach B-, you will receive additional rewards. What a pity!

However, looking at the other information, the regret on Dong Hongfeng's face gradually turned into joy, in this mission, he has gained a total of more than a year and a half, which at least means that he has an extra year and a half in life, or maybe he is one step closer to strengthening again.

There was a slight pain in his waist, which made the joy on Dong Hongfeng's face flash away, and he chose to exchange the healing function in the ball with a little heaviness.

A white light shone on Dong Hongfeng's body from the exchange ball, and the wound on his body instantly felt an itchy feeling, as if he could feel that the wound was healing.

The white light only lasted for a moment, but Dong Hongfeng felt that the fatigue in his whole body had completely disappeared, and he even had a feeling of being refreshed, as if his whole body was full of strength.

Dong Hongfeng first nervously touched his lower body with his hand, and his hand only felt bare and empty.

Dong Hongfeng understands the healing function of the exchange ball, and knows that it can only accelerate self-healing, and cannot regenerate the residual limb. But before boarding the cruise ship, he still couldn't help but have some luck and fantasies, hoping to grow back.

At this time, he was inevitably disappointed. No amount of time he gained on this mission could compare to what he lost.

This mission, he lost after all!

turned around and was about to leave the exchange ball, but a strange feeling suddenly came from his waist, which made Dong Hongfeng's face suddenly become extremely different.

He carefully lifted the placket to reveal the bandage wrapped around his waist.

The bandage looked like it had been used for a long time, and it had a grayish-brown color, and even had an unpleasant smell.

Dong Hongfeng frowned, and untied the bandage round and round.

When the last layer was unlocked, Dong Hongfeng looked at his waist and just glanced at it, his eyes widened suddenly.

He couldn't help but take a few steps back, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying, and he stared at his waist as if he doubted his eyes.

There was originally a shallow wound in his waist, but instead of healing under the healing light of the exchange orb, it turned gray-black, as if it were festering.

And the wound, which was originally small, turned out to be even bigger. The whole wound was like a festering mouth.

The most terrifying thing is that about a centimeter of flesh has grown from the place of the wound, and it is still wriggling, like a living thing.

"This ...... It's ......"

Dong Hongfeng instantly felt that his eyes were dark, as if the world was spinning, and he almost fell to the ground.

This wound was inflicted by the monster when he fought the mutated monster. Because the wound was shallow and painless, he simply tied it up in bandages.

Later, there was nothing unusual, until he boarded the cruise ship, but he felt an uncomfortable feeling from the wound in his waist, as if something was more, and he had a bad feeling in his heart at that time.

Upon entering the room, he inspected the wound, which was only slightly blackened, as if it were showing signs of inflammation.

Dong Hongfeng felt that this was not a big deal at the time, as long as he passed the treatment, he should be able to recover.

However, at this time, after healing, the wound, which was not very serious, actually underwent such a change, and the wriggling flesh buds looked particularly familiar.

Dong Hongfeng's eyes flashed in front of the mutated monster, and the muscles on the monster's body were squirming, how similar to the wound on his waist.

"Am I infected with the virus?!"

Dong Hongfeng immediately had this terrible thought in his heart, although he didn't want to admit it, but he had to say that this was the only possibility.

I remember that Ben 1 said in the lab that he was bitten by a rat infected with the virus, and as a result, he was also infected with the virus and became a monster with only one head but not death.

At this time, the mutated monster infected the virus to Dong Hongfeng through a shallow wound.

Recalling the process of Ben's mutation into a monster, Dong Hongfeng suddenly felt a chill that spread from the bottom of his heart to his whole body.

"No, I don't want to be a monster!"

He growled almost madly, then pulled his long knife from the space of his watch and held it tightly in his hand.

His whole body trembled, especially his right hand, which held the knife, but looking at the flesh that continued to wriggle, he gritted his teeth and swung his right arm down vigorously.

"Ugh!"

With a muffled snort of pain, Dong Hongfeng, who was clenching his teeth, swallowed back, and on his waist, a large piece of meat was cut off and fell to the ground.

Blood gushed out from the wound, and the severe pain made Dong Hongfeng's whole body covered in cold sweat.

He chose to heal again, and the white light flashed again, and the wound healed quickly and quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Gradually, a scar formed, the pain was relieved, and Dong Hongfeng wiped the sweat from his forehead.

However, as soon as his arm touched his forehead, his movements froze suddenly, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.

Dong Hongfeng opened his mouth wide, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying, and his face was full of horror.

Because after the wound on the waist healed, it did not stop, and several granulations gradually appeared, and soon grew to a length of three centimeters, and even peristagrated and growing.

Dong Hongfeng's whole body went soft, and he instantly collapsed on the ground.

He looked at the exchange ball in front of him, and suddenly had a strong desire to vent. He wanted to violently destroy the useless exchange ball, he wanted to shout wildly, he wanted to cut off the flesh that had grown from his waist again...... But in the end he didn't do anything, just sat there.

The root of his life has been cut, at least he is still alive!

But if it becomes a monster like Ben...... Even if he is alive, is it still him?

You must know that after Ben mutated into a monster at that time, he lost his mind and was like a beast.

He didn't want to be like that, but he didn't expect that the healing function of the exchange ball, which he had high hopes for, was not cured, but seemed to be promoted.

"It's over, I'm done!"

Dong Hongfeng, who has always boasted of being a tough guy, couldn't help but despair, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

He once felt that life was worse than death after the root of his life was cut off, but in the face of death without any way, he deeply realized the deep meaning of the phrase "It is better to die than to live"!

He doesn't want to die!

Dong Hongfeng recalled the monster of this mutation, and he didn't want to become such a monster.

Suddenly, his body shuddered, and a bright light seemed to flash in front of his eyes.

"As far as I know, formalin is able to block the synthesis of nuclear proteins...... And Ben No. 1 actually has the same virus as this mutated monster, and since Formalin can control Ben No. 1, it should also be able to affect this mutated monster......"

What Chen Mu had said, as well as the reaction of Ben No. 1 and the monster after encountering formalin, seemed to rush into Dong Hongfeng's mind in an instant.

"Formalin, Formalin......"

Dong Hongfeng muttered, as if he suddenly had strength, he got up from the ground and exchanged a large bucket of formalin directly for the exchange ball. He then poured the bucket of formalin completely on top of himself.

The stimulating taste made him feel nauseous and wanted to vomit, but at this moment he couldn't care about the discomfort of his body, and looked nervously at his waist.

The squirming and growing granulation around the waist, as if touching a nemesis, not only stopped growing, but shrank. It's still that big, but compared to before, it's like a fresh grass stalk and a sun-dried one.

Even the piece of meat that had just been cut off by him on the ground was still wriggling, but after being touched by the formalin that had been spilled on the ground, it lost all movement, like a piece of rotten meat.

"Gah, haha......"

Dong Hongfeng made a strange sound from his throat, and instantly felt like he had ascended from hell to heaven, and he couldn't help himself with excitement.

However, the excitement on his face had not disappeared, and the already shrunken flesh buds suddenly moved again, but the change was very small compared to the previous crazy growth.

Although formalin can inhibit the virus, it obviously cannot eradicate it!

Dong Hongfeng's face was gloomy, he thought for a while, exchanged a few barrels of formalin, and then cleaned up the traces left on the deck and rushed to his room.

There was only one thought in his mind, and that was to use formalin to slowly contain the abominable virus in a relatively private and safe place.

The cruise ship continued to move, and there was no movement on the deck, as if nothing had happened.

Chen Mu was in the room at this time, and he didn't know what was happening on the deck.

His mind was full of the eyes he saw in the thick fog, and he didn't know why those terrifyingly large pupils were so familiar, and he didn't know what Lu Yanxia saw that he was so frightened at that time.

Maybe he can only get some information by finding Lu Yanxia and asking him in person, but this mission has been completed, will he still have a chance to meet Lu Yanxia?

Chen Mu's heart was full of deep confusion, so much so that he didn't have any joy at the huge gains he had made in this mission.
