As the clock struck midnight, the rain stopped abruptly. The thick storm clouds parted, revealing a blood-red moon hanging ominously in the sky.
His eyes narrowed at this sight. Without hesitation, he turned to his team and said, "Wake up. It's time to move."
The soldiers stirred immediately as most of them were a light sleeper. Within ten minutes, they had packed their gear and climbed into their trucks and armored vehicles.
Under the dimmed illumination of the red moonlight, their convoy left the villa, heading straight for Lin'an University.
Inside the armored car, Jin Xuyan checked his watch again, his fingers clenching into fists. He had expected casualties during the storm, but thanks to their precautions, none of his men had turned into zombies. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Although no one turned into zombies, several soldiers had developed high fevers and fell into a coma. They were showing signs of awakening their abilities.
Unlike those who awakened their abilities caused by a zombie's bite or scratch, awakenings caused by the natural causes had a higher survival rate.
As long as they controlled the fever and kept the men hydrated, the chances of survival were as high as twenty percent.
Thinking about the low number, Jin Xuyan exhaled sharply. Now, they can only do their best. He hoped none of his men would die in the process.
At the same time, a figure was walking stiffly as she dragged her wounded body along the road.
Her long hair had long lost its luster and turned yellow and dry. As she walked, her hair fluttered in the wind, and strands fell to the ground. Her white dress was covered in dark, dried blood and rotten flesh.
A wound the size of a ping pong ball could be seen on her calf. The blood had long stopped flowing from the wound, but the area around it was rotting slowly.
Feeling the pain in her calf and the piercing pain in her head, Mo Binxue had only one thought in her mind at that moment—she must find a place to hide and survive.
As her body temperature kept dropping, the red veins in her eyes became denser. Her black pupils had already turned gray and looked like a dead fish's eyes.
Opening her mouth, she let out a 'ho ho ho' sound. Even though her mind had become sluggish and it took her a long time to process things, she still understood what was happening.
She was turning into a zombie—a brainless monster that only knew how to eat flesh and looked disgusting.
A drop of dark blood slowly rolled from the corner of her eye as she thought, 'I don't want to become a monster. I shouldn't end up like this. I want to live!'
Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling she was, the mutation in her body continued.
Half an hour later, she finally stopped moving and stood on the road with her head tilted back at a strange angle, her eyes closed. Her hands hung limply at her sides, and her legs stiffened.
