CH 38.1

So they’ll start the experiment right away? Fang He looked in Li Yue’s direction with some worry, and raised his cat paw, “I’ll go and check on the little dumpling first.”

Li Zhen nodded, and Fang He quickly ran towards Li Yue’s direction. He not only wants to see the little dumpling, but more importantly, he wants to see whether there are zombies left running around. Although he and Li Zhen had already cleaned this place up, they were afraid that some wandering zombies will come in. 

Fortunately, Fang He didn’t find a zombie after going around. Fang He, who was relieved, ran to the alley where Li Yue was.

As soon as he entered the entrance of the alley, Fang He suddenly stopped short. His front paw was still half raised, when he looked in front of him with some surprise. The entrance of the alley, the road leading to Li Yue’s residence was blocked by a barrier made out by various steel bars inserted diagonally.

This is the steel used to build a house, the top should have been relatively smooth, not full of barbs as it is now.

Fang He leaped up to the wall and looked at the place where Li Yue lived from above. The surrounding area was densely packed with barbed steel bars. Fang He had to admire Li Yue’s ability, it was difficult for her to find so many steel bars while carrying her child. Even making so many barbs on the steel bars, with this kind of defense, ordinary zombies absolutely can not enter. 

Fang He knew that Li Yue was very vigilant, so this time as well, he didn’t continue to go inside. Looking at the red-roofed house, Fang He was a bit frustrated, he still doesn’t know what the little dumpling looks like. They say that the nephew is similar to the uncle, will he grow up looking like Li Zhen’s cold face? Nephew…well, he seemed to continuously call him Li Zhen’s nephew before, haha.

Fang He took some food made by Li Zhen for Li Yue again, and he also included some live chickens for Li Yue by the way, hoping to bring a little bit of life to the lives of Li Yue, this mother and son pair.

Before Li Yue could react, Fang He hurriedly jumped off the wall and rushed towards Li Zhen’s direction in the darkness.

When Fang He came back, he saw Li Zhen standing there waiting quietly. Fang He crouched on the roof of the car, and nodded to Li Zhen, “They are quite safe, don’t worry.”

Li Zhen rubbed Fang He’s head, then he prepared to start studying how to shield the crystal nucleus.

Whether it is Fang He or Li Zhen, both cat and person cannot directly touch the crystal nucleus. So Fang He watched as Li Zhen controlled the crystal nucleus with his mind power, flying from the hands of the mutant zombie little brother. Then it fell on the table Li Zhen took out from the space.

Fang He immediately sat down, his cat paws were placed in front very well-behaved, and his green eyes looked at Li Zhen’s cold face seriously.

Li Zhen shook his head and laughed.

Fang He could finally see the way Li Zhen smiled after he recovered. His already stern face was only a little softer, others would definitely not be able to see it, but Fang He, who always looked at Li Zhen’s rigid face over the past few days, can see this subtle change. Fang He moved his ears, inexplicably he felt his heart soft, and wanted to cover his little heart. 

Fang He has never felt that Li Zhen’s ability to shield perception was something dangerous to him. Since the first day of the end of the world, he has been shielded by Li Zhen several times. Therefore, when Li Zhen raised his hand to cover the crystal nucleus in the air, and began to gather his power to try shielding the essence of the crystal nucleus, Fang He’s attention was only on Li Zhen’s movements and the crystal nucleus on the table.

After Fang He watched for a long time, he didn’t notice any changes. But when he looked up at Li Zhen, the whole cat was not good.  Li Zhen’s already somewhat vigorous face suddenly became grayer and whiter, and his pure black eyes became darker and clearer.

“Li Zhen!” Fang He was suddenly startled. His state was comparable to the time when Li Zhen had just become a zombie. He then hurriedly rushed out of the car.

Li Zhen heard Fang He’s cry, and suddenly pulled out his hands, followed by a stepped back, then he clenched his fists tightly. 

Fang He landed on the table, “What’s the matter?”

Li Zhen endured, and barely uttered a sentence, “The zombies killed are not enough…”

After saying this, the pupils in Li Zhen’s eyes suddenly turned black to red. It was so red that it almost resembled dripping blood, then he suddenly entered the space when he still could control himself.

Fang He doesn’t understand what happened, but he understood the superficial meaning of this sentence. Fang He then rushed to the southeast of X County. He had heard from the survivors in the county before that there was an East Mountain Pass here, and densely populated places have the most zombies. 

Fang He just rushed out not far away, when he suddenly remembered the mutant zombie he had thrown aside. Immediately, he turned back, but the zombie kid actually got up and was already running to the side, following Fang He.

Fang He was relieved and hurried to the southeast. As soon as he rushed into this part of the residential area, Fang He found that there are indeed more zombies here, But Fang He is still worried that it’s not enough. So from the space, he took the last few sheep out again, without worrying being wasteful, he then cut the neck of the sheep and threw them out.

The blood of the few sheep attracted the zombies to keep crowding here in the night. Only then did Fang He let the blood-red eyed Li Zhen come out. When Fang He, who was killing the zombies, saw Li Zhen staring at the sheep in the distance as soon as he came out, he roared angrily, “Try eating one if you dare!”

Li Zhen’s red and black eyes glanced at Fang He, and when Fang He was still worrying that Li Zhen would be unconscious again, Li Zhen nodded at him and then rushed into the group of zombies. 

Fang He looked at the zombies crowding around the sheep and biting them, and rushed in. He was already tired after killing for most of the day, but at this time, Fang He broke out with a strong resilience again, and ran across the group of zombies, harvesting zombie heads everywhere.

He didn’t know how many zombies were killed. The sheep were surrounded by pile of zombie corpses, and the temptation of the sheep’s blood had already dissipated, so the surrounding zombies no longer came over. Fang He glanced at Li Zhen, whose eyes had already recovered, and breathed a sigh of relief. He couldn’t lift his cat paws anymore, and his whole cat just hung on the billboard on the side of the road. Li Zhen stretched out his hand to beckoned his body, and hugged him in his arms.

Fang He was so soft that he didn’t want to move, he directly became a puddle in Li Zhen’s arm, and lazily asked, “What’s wrong?”

Li Zhen hugged Fang He and walked back. The zombie kid behind also followed suit. 

Seeing that Li Zhen did not speak, Fang He was baffled. Reluctantly, he lifted his sour cat paw and stepped on Li Zhen’s hand, “You also don’t know?”

Li Zhen didn’t say a word and just picked up Fang He. He rubbed Fang He’s pink soft and warm cat nose against the tip of his cold nose.

Fang He weakly pushed away Li Zhen’s cold face with his cat paws, he couldn’t breathe anymore!

The tip of Li Zhen’s nose shifted and went to rub the fur on the kitten’s head, “The power of the shield comes from the life force of the zombies I absorb. When I tried to shield the crystal nucleus just now, I was too overconfident, now it made my zombie instinct go out of control.” 

“Huh?” Fang He didn’t understand. The water in the space has already restored Li Zhen, shouldn’t it be the power in the space that plays a decisive role?

Li Zhen also thought of Fang He’s question. He stretched out his hand and rubbed the mark of the Peach-core Bell on Fang He’s neck. “The power inside is very powerful, but it can only restore my body and cannot restore my vitality. It’s like my body is fully recovered, but I still can’t breathe. Someday, when I can absorb enough vitality, maybe I can fully recover. At the same time, vitality is the source of my healing and shielding.”

Fang He said that he did not understand, then nestled his head in Li Zhen’s arms, slightly squinting his eyes.

“Well, in short, in order to shield the little dumpling, countless zombies need to be killed.” 

Fang He nodded in a daze and asked vaguely, “What about your full recovery?”

Li Zhen stroked Fang He’s neck slowly and rhythmically, “It’s a bit difficult, but there will be a way.”

There will be a way, Fang He firmly believed it, then the exhaustion made him completely close his eyes.
