Chapter 251

The sound was too mournful.

Everyone turned their heads to look.

In a corner of the training ground, a person suddenly went berserk and started biting another person.

Everyone's heart skipped a beat.

This scene was too familiar!

It was... the scene of a zombie biting a person!

"What? How could there be a zombie in the base?!"

"Right, weren't we all checked when we entered?"

"The one biting seems to be from Xiangrui Base!"

The crowd buzzed with discussion.

Meanwhile, people quickly took action, dealing with both the biter and the one who was bitten and starting to mutate.

Fortunately, this happened in a crowded place, allowing everyone to control the situation in time.

If it had happened in a secluded, less populated area, by the time someone noticed, the situation might have already spiraled out of control.

Hao Ren arrived quickly with a group of people.

As soon as he reached the scene, he began arranging for inspections.

"There are no bite or scratch marks on his body."

After the inspection, Hao Ren's subordinate stood up and reported.

Hearing this, everyone felt a surge of doubt.

No wounds?

Then how did he turn into a zombie?

It seemed that only the initial wave of people turning into zombies was sudden.

After that, people usually only mutated after being scratched or bitten by a zombie.

Could it be that, just like the initial zombie virus outbreak, people might suddenly turn into zombies without any warning?!

The thought of this possibility made everyone's mood extremely heavy.

Because it meant that people would once again face a catastrophic disaster.

Everyone subconsciously distanced themselves from those around them, afraid that someone might suddenly turn into a zombie and lunge at them.

This caused the originally spirited group to lose their spirit.

If this was truly the case, was there even a point in fighting the zombies?Nôv(el)B\\jnn

For a moment, everyone felt as if a heavy boulder was pressing down on their hearts, making them feel heavy, stifled, and extremely depressed.

Listening to the discussions around her, some from Xiangrui Base avoided eye contact, their eyes flickering with both fear and a hint of apprehension.

Yun Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes.

Could it be that the esper in Xiangrui Base have already started showing signs of trouble?

If that was the case, then things were quite serious.

She looked at one of the people from Xiangrui Base, someone she vaguely remembered.

"Don't you know that your deliberate concealment could cost more lives?"

Initially, she hadn't wanted to get involved.

But since this matter affected her own interests, she couldn't stand by and do nothing.

She didn't want to be fighting zombies only to have her allies turn into them.

Having more psychic zombies would just be adding unnecessary trouble.

She wasn't exactly idle.

If she had the time, wouldn't it be better to just eat, drink, and relax?

She sneered coldly, staring at the corpses on the ground.

"This kind of thing must have happened in your base more than once, hasn't it?"

At her words, Tang Jun's expression tightened.

Seeing his reaction, Yun Xiaoxiao smiled and continued.

"I hear that if one consumes too many zombie cores, they become easily irritable, and eventually either explode or turn into a zombie, biting people everywhere."

She locked her gaze on Tang Jun's eyes.

"It seems that Tang Base Leader already knew about this."

"Is that true?"

As soon as Yun Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Hao Ren narrowed his eyes and looked at Tang Jun.

Tang Jun stared at Yun Xiaoxiao for a moment before nodding.

"Yes, we only recently discovered this.

I'm sorry, we weren't deliberately hiding it.

I've already ordered all psychics in the base to stop consuming cores on their own.

I thought that as long as they stopped, there wouldn't be a problem, but I didn't expect this to happen."

Hearing this, the crowd stirred.

"Really? Consuming cores has such severe side effects!"

"Oh no, I tried a few before. Am I going to turn into a zombie?"

"This means that everyone in Xiangrui Base is at risk. Should they be excluded from tomorrow's zombie hunt?"

Then we'd lose a lot of combat power.

"Even if we lose combat power, it's better than having someone suddenly bite your neck during the fight."

"But... besides Xiangrui Base, some others have also eaten cores. Should they all withdraw?"

Just as the previous worry faded, a new one emerged.

The atmosphere at the scene became extremely oppressive.

Even Peng Shaowei and the other base leaders, who were in a meeting, rushed to the scene.

"I have a solution, but I'm not sure if it will work. If you're willing, you can try it."

At that moment, Yun Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke up.

Hearing this, everyone turned to look at her.

"What solution?"
