Chapter 5: The Blood of Battle

It's finally here.

Su Qian's biggest worry and fear is also the most fearful. About himself, about his evolved body. Su Qian's hands behind his back were quietly clenched into fists.

He first glanced up at Colonel Carry, who was still standing nearby.

"It's okay, Karry's identity is similar to yours, and he is also one of the insiders of the genetic project, and he is also a participant." Bruce's words made Su Qian feel slightly surprised.

Looking at Colonel Carry, who was more than one meter eight tall and had a burly face mark, Su Qian suddenly thought of Captain America in the hero comics, a genetically modified super soldier. In any case, it is more in line with the image than his own small and thin from the Chinese country.

"Have you felt anything uncomfortable in the last few days?" Bruce asked.

"No," Su Qian shook his head and hesitated for a moment before saying slowly, "Actually...... Yesterday, Anjie just gave me a 'stabilizing potion' and I'm doing well now. ”

"Stable?" Bruce's face showed a look of surprise, and Colonel Carry's face moved slightly when he heard these two words.

"But the last time I was on the boat, An Jie told me that she didn't have a potion......"

"That's out of self-preservation, after all, she didn't fully believe you at that time." Su Qian explained, "Actually, I only found out about this matter yesterday, after I used my ability to fight with that mutant zombie, I felt as if there was a fire burning all over my body, until I returned to the base, An Jie stuffed a pill into my mouth, and I knew that she was carrying a 'stabilizing potion' on her body." ”

Bruce nodded, as if believing Su Qian's statement, he took out a plastic vial from his pocket and placed it on the table: "I promised to provide you with a stabilization potion before, this is a special stabilization potion for evolution in our research...... But now it seems that you may not need it anymore. ”

When Bruce said this, he kept quietly peeking at Su Qian's expression, but he didn't find any signs of heartbeat.

"At least I probably won't be able to use it until Anjie's stabilizing potion runs out." Su Qian nodded, picked up the small medicine bottle with a little regret and shook it, and heard the knock of the potions inside: "But I want to keep this as a souvenir, is it okay?" ”

"This was meant to be given to you." Bruce took out a set of blood-drawing tools from under the cabinet, "As we agreed, I will take a certain amount of blood samples from you on a regular basis, now, it's convenient......"

The red blood also flowed slowly along the blood vessels, and Bruce pulled out the needle and gently pressed it on Su Qian's chest with cotton soaked in alcohol.

"After I go back, please bring a word to An Jie, just say that I want to exchange some stabilizing potions in her hand, and as for the conditions, she can come to my research room to get them casually."

When Su Qian left, Cary personally sent him to the door and told him to prepare to go to Quebec tomorrow, and at the same time gave him a letter of appointment, telling Su Qian that whatever manpower he needed would be deployed by him.

Nodding, it wasn't until the figure had been in the wind and snow for a long time that the smile on Colonel Carry's face slowly retracted, and he returned to the room and asked Bruce, who was fiddling with Su's blood.

"Do you believe what he just said?"

"What about you, can you believe it?" The old man gently shook the blood tube and made a surprised sound, and only asked back after a long time.

"I think it's true that he's described that he's out of control, because I've been through ......," Kari explains, "but I always feel that something is wrong, and at least I keep it skeptical, because I trust my hunch." ”

"yes, it's a pity...... I never believed in feelings. Bruce held up the blood in his hand and pointed it at the white light on the roof, which illuminated the blood in a translucent color, "But science and data don't lie." ”

There is a lot of snow along the way, and although there will be special abandoners on the streets to clear the snow regularly, the snowflakes that no longer fall and freeze all the time will never be cleaned up, most of the time the parts that have been trampled too hard are removed, and then some sand and gravel will be sprinkled so that they will not slip.

Now Su Qian's feet are stepping on freshly fallen snow, and there is a feeling of softness like stepping into the mud. In my heart, I was still recalling the previous conversation with Bruce, as if there was no hole in the lie and the expression of trust.

At the moment, I thought that if Bruce insisted on controlling himself, there might not be much way to resist. He didn't expect that even Colonel Kari was genetically modified, as if modified people would be particularly popular, and Su Qian, who was stepping on the snow, began to think about some messy things.

If the zombies in the world are wiped out, then what will happen to genetic evolutionaries like them? It's like the superhero-infested world in Hollywood movies, can evolutionaries really coexist with ordinary humans, and people with those abilities may become superior in terms of mentality......

Or those who have not evolved will be gradually eliminated, An Jie often said, 'Evolution is to eliminate, if you can't run faster, you are destined to become the first food in the mouth of the bear.' ’

Thinking like this heartlessly, even if it is eliminated, it will not fall on your head. He tightened his collar, and even after many amplifications, his body was still weak in the face of such cold.

"Hey boy, you've been standing here for so long, are you trying to steal?"

"Why doesn't this coat look like your own, where did you steal it?"

"It's not!"

There was a bustling sound in the snow ahead, as if there was an argument. At night, few people walk outside, except for the military. In addition to the cold of winter nights, another important reason is that dark nights always give some people who are not willing to be lonely a perfect reason.

"Haha, what are you holding in your hands, let me see...... Tsk, a whole chicken leg and rum, how old are you now that you want to secretly drink. The man in the shabby cotton coat stared a pair of vicious eyes out from under his thick felt hat, trying to make himself look more like a heinous bad guy.

The expression on the boy's face was stubborn, and although the tears of fear were already swirling in the sockets of his eyes, his hands were still holding the food in the simple plastic bag.

Jerry didn't know why these people were bothering him, but the look in their eyes when they looked at the food in their hands made people tremble.

In the base, wine is a luxury. Especially for those who were abandoned, even Peter, as the leader, kept a few cheap bottles of vodka as treasures, so when the homeless men saw the bottle in the boy's hand, they only felt a hot and dry fire in their throats, as if there was already mellow alcohol flowing through them.

"Hmph, boy, I think you must have stolen this wine, so give it to me...... Otherwise, "the boss of the homeless man can't help but do it."

"Don't!"

In response to him, the boy's voice was a little immature and weak, because Jerry's military hat had fallen to the ground, revealing his golden scattered hair, and there were already traces of tears on his immature face, and he gritted his teeth and said, "These are my ...... It's for Su ......"

"Who do I care you for?"

The gangster boss snatched the bag from the boy's hand, with a comfortable smile on his face, and the younger brothers behind him coaxed together, he couldn't wait to taste the wine, but at this time, Jerry suddenly hugged his thigh, and held a sharp knife in the boy's hand.

Suddenly snatching something is like a crazy little boy pulling out the only weapon on his body, stabbing the man in the thigh hard, then pulling it out, stabbing it in again.

"Ahh The screams of the man could be heard all over the street, blood gushing all over the ground, along with the boy's face, his body was stained red, the plastic bag wrapped in vodka and chicken thighs fell in a pool of blood, and the man was wailing in pain holding his injured thigh.

And the gangsters in the back were completely dumbfounded, they didn't expect that an eight-year-old boy would suddenly pull out a knife and stab someone, blood slid down the tip of the knife drop by drop, and Jerry, who was covered with blood, looked dull, did not cry, did not shout, but stared at the remaining few people with that kind of blank gaze.

The gangster who was furious in his heart was finally unable to help but explode, while telling himself in his heart that it was just a teenager, and then rushed towards the boy with a fierce face.

The boy glanced at the blood-soaked bag on the ground, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes.

"That's my ......"

Jerry is like an enraged lion cub, baring his tender fangs at his enemies. The thug kicked the boy in the stomach, and the knife in the boy's hand fell into the snow.

"Boy, you dare to hurt our big brother." The thug was a little short of breath at this time, obviously not recovering from the tension just now, grabbing the knife that was still dripping blood, and finally showing a fierce look on his face.

"You give me death!"

The thug's body froze for a moment, shooting out like a cannonball, as if a powerful force had nailed him to the wall.

A figure appeared in front of Jerry, and he saw those familiar eyes, and with a look of encouragement, he gently touched his head.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay now......"

Seeing his second companion being sent flying, the remaining two thugs didn't even see what was going on. Fear came over me. They even abandoned the boss who was still wailing in the snow and ran in the other direction.

Su Qian's figure suddenly pounced, and a terrible scream sounded again in the silent night.
