Chapter Forty-Nine: Zombie?
"Hey, don't get me wrong, I don't know what the situation is, don't look at me like this......"
Zhang Ning waved his hands in a panic and tried his best to explain, but the faces of the three people opposite did not show a trace of belief, but instead opened their eyes and hugged their arms.
"The way you look, the more I look at it, the stranger it becomes......" Xu Xiaoxiao narrowed his eyes and said.
"You are really a zombie, you can smell the smell that we can't smell......" Zhang Jike touched his chin and said.
"You don't think anything about the brains of those two zombies...... Marlon concluded, with an exaggerated expression.
"Forehead ......"
Impacted by the barrage of words of the three of them, Zhang Ning's brain was short-circuited instantly, and he couldn't react for a while.
Speechless, Zhang Ning couldn't help but recall his experience of waking up from the morgue again.
"Could it be that I really became a zombie?"
Zhang Ning once again set his eyes on the big hole in the zombie's head, and I have to say that if he loses the ability to think, he will definitely go up and devour those disgusting things without hesitation.
The black slime that flowed from the zombie's skull, although not as strong as the purple slurry in the previous Fortune Tree, still had a faint attraction to him.
"If I stick out my tongue and lick it, I'll be shot in the head by Zhang Jike...... Definitely......"
Zhang Ning thought in his heart, and at the same time glanced at the three people by the door with the corner of his eye.
Finally, after some internal struggle, he decided to tell the truth to everyone.
Although Zhang Ning is in the second grade, he is not a fool.
The ancients said, "Three stinkers can top one Zhuge Liang." ”
Zhang Ning understood that he couldn't think of the changes that had occurred in his body alone.
It would be better to tell everyone that maybe they can brainstorm and figure out what's going on.
"Well, I did smell a faint fragrance coming from this zombie's head."
After making up his mind, Zhang Ning clenched his fists and expressed his feelings to the three people by the door.
"It feels hard to explain, it's like an acquired instinct that directs me to devour these things."
As he spoke, Zhang Ning pointed to the black slime that flowed out of the hole.
"But I myself refused, because not only does it look disgusting, but it's human brains......"
Everyone looked at Zhang Ning, who was entangled, and then they understood the reason, and they fell into deep thought.
"Actually, what I'm more concerned about now is, do you have the urge to bite someone?"
Ma Long looked at Zhang Ning, who was standing in place and didn't dare to move, like a prisoner waiting for the verdict to be announced, and couldn't help but want to laugh a little.
"Of course not, I don't feel ...... at all"
Zhang Ning's head shook like a wave drum, and he denied it again and again.
"Then I don't have any problems......" Malone said with a smile of relief.
"Huh! Do you want to dig out the head of this zombie, maybe it's the same as in the novel, there will be crystal nuclei and other things, and eating them can strengthen it. ”
Xu Xiaoxiao seemed to have thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he suggested loudly.
"This ......" Zhang Ning looked at the zombie in front of him who was shot in the head and scratched his head.
It's not that he hasn't thought about this possibility, after all, as a second-year patient who aspires to become a novelist, Zhang Ning is still familiar with the setting of "zombies have crystal nuclei in their heads".
It's just that if you really want him to get started, you still need to do some mental construction.
"Or? Dig it out? Maybe there's a crystal nucleus or something......"
Zhang Ning stretched out his right hand towards the zombie's head and slowly reached into the hole.
The wound brought by the rifle shot at close range was huge, enough to allow Zhang Ning's palm to go completely deep.
"It's just a mess, a mess ......"
Closing his eyes, Zhang Ning continued to hypnotize himself in his heart, and his five fingers stirred back and forth in the zombie's head, trying to find something inside.
"There's nothing, it's just a mess, not to mention how disgusting......"
Zhang Ning pulled his hand out of his skull, spread it out at Xu Xiaoxiao, and signaled that he hadn't taken out anything.
But Xu Xiaoxiao didn't answer, but stared at his right hand with a look of surprise on his face.
"Eh, what's wrong with you, what's wrong with my right hand......"
Zhang Ning's gaze turned to his outstretched right hand, and he swallowed back the word "has" that had just reached his mouth.
There was still a lot of black slime left on his palms from the zombie heads, but the area covered was decreasing.
The reason for the decrease in mucus is not that it drips on the ground, but that it is absorbed by his skin!
"I'm a mother!"
Zhang Ning screamed, and hurriedly stretched out his right hand to the farthest place, like his right hand had become a poisonous snake, and it would bite him back at any time.
Zhang Jike and Ma Long soon noticed the strangeness of Zhang Ning's right hand, and they couldn't help but come forward curiously, wanting to find out.
"Stand back! It's not just cats that are killed by curiosity. ”
Zhang Ning saw that the two soldiers were about to come forward to check, and hurriedly reminded him.
The slime on his hands wasn't a fun thing, and the things that flowed out of the zombie's brains contained a lot of viruses in his ass.
Naturally, it's okay for Zhang Ning, anyway, his current appearance is estimated to be no different from a zombie.
But Zhang Jike and Ma Long are ordinary people who have not been exposed to the virus, and it would be bad if one accidentally got infected with these black mucus.
Zhang Jike and Ma Long's reaction was not slow, and when they heard the meaning of Zhang Ning's words, they stopped moving forward.
As time passed, everyone quietly watched the changes on Zhang Ning's right hand.
Finally, the last drop of black mucus on Zhang Ning's hand also seeped into the skin and disappeared without a trace.
Just as everyone was about to say something, a strange change happened again.
The black blood vessels that had been looming under the skin of his right arm suddenly bulged up and began to beat violently.
At the same time, Zhang Ning's body also began to tremble slightly, and the whole person seemed to have a sudden illness, and he was about to fall to the ground at any time.
"Zhang Ning, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Jike was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly asked.
I saw Zhang Ning raise his head with difficulty, and said intermittently.
"No, it's okay, oh! It feels, oh! It's so cool! ”
As he spoke, there was a comfortable look on his face, and the corners of Zhang Jike's mouth twitched, and he almost couldn't help but go up and shoot him.
"Whew!" After 30 seconds of trembling, Zhang Ning let out a long sigh of relief and returned to normal.
"Did I read it wrong, how do you feel that the scales on your neck seem to be a little darker."
Xu Xiaoxiao, who had not made a sound, said suddenly.
"Well, it looks like it's a little darker." Ma Long narrowed his eyes and looked towards Zhang Ning's neck.
The fine black blood vessels that were originally all over Zhang Ning's body were completely hidden at this time.
From Ma Long's point of view, Zhang Ning in front of him was no different from a normal human except for the strange scales on his neck and his eyes were still scarlet.
"Hey! It's amazing, I feel that my waist is no longer sore, my legs don't hurt anymore, and I have strength all over my body! ”
Zhang Ning shook his hands and staggered up and down.
"I see! You must be like Spider-Man? ”
Xu Xiaoxiao seemed to have figured out something, and said to himself.
"Huh?"
Everyone was puzzled.
"You think, Spider-Man was bitten by a spider, so he gained superpowers and became like a spider, able to climb walls and spin silk."
"Then you were bitten by a zombie, the same principle, you also gained superpowers, and became the same as a zombie!"
When Zhang Ning heard this, he muttered to himself.
"So I'm ...... now"
"Zombie!"
I saw two funny men and women saying in unison, their eyes full of excitement.
And the two servicemen stood on the side, completely messy.
But fortunately, Zhang Ning's state didn't seem to be abnormal, so the two didn't say anything more and continued to walk downstairs as originally planned.
Fortunately, in the next journey, there were no zombies blocking the road, which also made Zhang Ning and his party quite easy.
Unfortunately, during the inspection of the houses one by one, no survivors were found.
In most of the rooms, after Malone knocked on the door, there were scratching sounds of varying frequency from inside the door, and no survivor answered.
In Room 1204 on the west side of the 12th floor, after Ma Long knocked on the door, there was a sound of banging on the door, which frightened everyone to immediately retreat and be on guard.
However, after hitting the door twice, the sound was lost, and it was thought that the target had been lost, and it was no longer rammed.
After observing the door for a while, and making sure that as long as they didn't knock, the contents of the door would not continue to hit the door, they stopped paying attention to it and continued to walk downstairs.
It's just that the further down you go, the heavier everyone's mood becomes.
A full 17 floors down from the top floor, there is not a single survivor.
"Alas, the end of the world, which I have imagined countless times, is really happening right in front of my eyes."
Zhang Ning, who was at the forefront, said with emotion that since he had become a "zombie man" in the eyes of everyone, the arduous task of opening the way naturally fell on his head.
"This is just a cataclysm, and I believe that with the survivors, we will be able to restore our homes to their former state!"
Ma Long, who followed the tail of the team, cheered everyone up, the Chinese people have always been a nation that is unwilling to admit defeat easily, as long as someone is still alive, order can be rebuilt!
"Also, I have always had a lot of faith in our nation!"
Zhang Ning heard Ma Long's words of encouragement, and the whole person was also perked up, and his mood improved a lot.
Just as he was about to turn around and say something, he suddenly saw Xu Xiaoxiao behind him stop suddenly, looking behind him in horror.
"You, the door of the house behind you, open!"
When Zhang Ning heard this, he immediately looked forward, and sure enough, in Room 1103 at the corner, the door was in a state of concealment.
The sound of two bullets loading came from behind Xu Xiaoxiao, Zhang Jike and Ma Long pulled the bolt of the gun, and looked at the front with their whole bodies tense.
"I'll go check it out first."
Zhang Ning whispered hello to the three people behind him, and slowly touched the door with his waist bent.
Just as he was about to touch the door, the door slammed shut......
