CH 37.2

X County was built due south and north, which was divided into four passes, and they are located in the northern pass. There is a large farmer’s market in the northern pass, a place with relatively abundant supplies. So when they cleaned up the zombies around this area, more survivors joined them. 

Li Zhen  left behind ordinary people to deal with the aftermath, and those with supernatural abilities will go to kill the zombies. People who didn’t know how to use their abilities, gradually became more and more skilled in using them under each others’ mutual speculation and exchange of experiences.

They spend most of the day running around, so even if these people are mutants, and are relatively strong, they are still a bit exhausted. When they returned to the Northern Pass Farmer’s Market, they saw the eagerness and grateful eyes of the ordinary survivors without abilities, as well as the generous food.

Fang He looked at the enthusiastic people around the big bonfire, then his cat paw scratched Li Zhen’s hat. He had noticed it a long time ago. In order to endure all these temptations, his miserable poop shoveling official didn’t even dare to talk more.

When the people turned back to look for the fully armed man, they discovered that he had already left, and they didn’t know when. The hundreds of survivors gathered together, then fell silent. The man didn’t even eat any food… 

Fang He looked back at the direction of the farmer’s market, “Leaving just like that?”

“Otherwise?” Li Zhen turned to look at him.

Fang He leaned on Li Zhen’s shoulders, shaking his cat tail, “I thought you were going to build a base or something. There is a saying, what is it called; Torio will appear in troubled times. You are so powerful, and you are very inspiring, and you also have space to store supplies. You may be able to build the largest base in the apocalypse.”

However, Li Zhen’s focus was not on the fantasy behind Fang He, but on the idiom Fang He uttered. He stretched out his hand to get Fang He off his shoulder, then scratched his chin, “What happened in troubled times?”

Fang He was tired for most of the day and was uncomfortable. Li Zhen scratching him like this made him feel that his whole body wanted to be scratched. Fang He moved in Li Zhen’s palm, then he lay down on his back, half lifting his cat paws, asking Li Zhen to scratch him. He didn’t even hear Li Zhen’s questioning, he knew that his education was low.

“Decree?” His words were good, but he vaguely remembers that there were a few typos in the content written by Fang He on the wall that he saw that day.

Fang He turned over and let Li Zhen stroke his back. He lay down comfortable and bowed his waist, and his cat paws stretched forward.

Li Zhen stretched out his hand and squeezed the cat paw that had exposed its barb, and rubbed the cat’s paw pad. It’s a pity that everything is black and white under his sight, otherwise, he could look at this pink meat pad. 

Fang He got up and looked out from the window. After driving a distance, Li Zhen suddenly stopped the car. Fang He yawned and surveyed the area in the moonlight.

Fang He wanted to ask about Li Zhen’s plan, but he suddenly found something familiar outside the window!

Fang He stood up abruptly, his cat eyes narrowed slightly. He could see clearly in the night, meow-wu, it’s that zombie kid!

Fang He-mao pawed at Li Zhen’s body, and said with a little excitement, “Li Zhen, quickly kill this zombie.” 

Li Zhen calmly stroked Fang He’s fur,  “Don’t be anxious, He-miao.”

Anxious, you fart! Fang He glanced at him irritably. Who knew if the one outside had eaten people this past day. This was a mutant zombie.

Li Zhen stopped the car at this moment, and opened the car door. Holding Fang He, he looked at his zombie little brother, standing there honestly, “I ordered it not to eat people.” 

Fang He looked at Li Zhen, “He doesn’t eat people, but can it withstand the temptation of the small dumpling?”

Li Zhen shook his head, it definitely couldn’t hold it. That was why when he left the place where Li Yue was before, he intensified his control over this zombie. When they were killing zombies before, this mutant zombie was already hiding in the periphery while also killing zombies.

Li Zhen pointed to a small house in front of him, “Grumpy kitten, don’t be nervous. This is where we will be staying for a while. I strictly controlled the distance, this is far outside the scope where we can be lured.”

It was a shabby little house, right next to a field, and he had no idea what it was for. 

Fang He visually observed the place, and it is indeed far from the old house. Although Li Zhen can control himself, this mutant zombie can’t. And it’s a speed mutant zombie as well, what if it suddenly runs away, what to do then? Li Yue’s attack power is strong, but this speed mutant zombie moves too fast, it will be very dangerous.

The calm Li Zhen continued to rub Fang He’s fur, while rubbing him, he also felt quite strange. The exploded fur could actually last for so long. It feels good and feels more comfortable to rub than when the fur is down.

“Poop shoveling official, can you be more serious, it is your nephew, your own…your sister’s child! To be on the safe side, this zombie should be killed! We can kill zombies by ourselves, there’s no need for a mutant zombie to help us!”

Li Zhen squeezed Fang He’s cat paws, then took off his glasses, revealing his pure black eyes, and looked straight at Fang He, “He-miao, I need to do the experiments.” 

Fang He felt cold all over. Experiment? It was a word that disgusted him…

Fang He’s reaction made Li Zhen sigh slightly, “He-miao, the apocalypse will be long right?”

Fang He lowered his head and nodded, “At least thirteen years, it has not ended yet.”

Fang He only knew these thirteen years, but he still doesn’t know how long it lasted afterwards, whether or not people have finally defeated the zombies. 

“What about the evolution of zombies?” His simple test found that those zombie viruses would only become stronger and stronger by swallowing each other.

Fang He thought of the zombies that chewed him up. At that time, the zombies had evolved to a level where their physical strength are very high, but they are also generally higher level, and most of them move in groups, so it is really difficult for mutants to beat them without teaming up.

“So, He-miao, you have to believe me. This zombie is under my control, once something happens, I will immediately crush him. But if I don’t do a thorough research on him, how can I protect the little dumpling that even I, myself would be tempted to?”

“But…” Fang He instinctively resents experiments. His experiences made it difficult for him to develop good ideas about experiments. 

Li Zhen held Fang He’s chin down, and gently rubbed Fang He’s cat head, “He-miao, trust me.”

Fang He said gloomily, “Those people doing experiments are like perverts.”

Li Zhen paused, “Am I also a pervert?”

“Almost there.” 

Li Zhen pulled Fang He’s ears, “Then you don’t want the little dumpling to protect himself when zombies evolve and become even more difficult to deal with in the future? Have you ever thought that one day, maybe the virus can be solved?”

“Will it?” Fang He couldn’t imagine.

“So, experiments are inevitable, but I assure you that all experiments are within safe limits and I will not risk the little dumpling, nor anyone else.”

Fang He stretched out his cat paw, “And one more, all experiments are to be under the watchful eye of this cat.” 

Li Zhen held Fang He’s paw, “Deal!”

Fang He just watched the mutant zombie come over, and actually reached out and handed something over. Looking at the green crystal nucleus in the zombie’s palm, Fang He understood what Li Zhen’s so-called control meant. The zombie’s instinct to absorb crystal nuclei was restrained.

“The crystal nucleus is the power source of the virus. I can control this mutant zombie to sense the crystal nucleus but not absorb it, because the level of its crystal nucleus is low, and its strength is not strong enough. What I need to do now is to find a way to shield the power essence of the crystal nucleus. As long as the zombie can’t sense the crystal nucleus, it’s already half successful. Next is to increase the power of the shield, wait until the power of the shield is strong enough, and then apply this power to the little dumpling, so that the zombies can’t sense the ability of the little dumpling. Only then will it consider a success.” Li Zhen explained simply.

Although it was a bit convoluted, Fang He also briefly understood. He thought that Li Zhen would let this zombie sense the little dumpling, only then will he figure out a way to prevent the zombies’ sensing ability, but after understanding Li Zhen’s plan, Fang He suddenly became a little bit ashamed. Maybe he could take the word experiment positively.
