Chapter 122 Uniting All Humans to Capture Yuzu

Qiao Yue was filled with doubts. She got out of bed and felt unsteady as soon as her feet touched the ground.

She didn't care about any of that and reached out to pinch her face hard.

"hiss--"

It hurt; this real sensation told her that she wasn't dreaming.

Seeing Qiao Yue's actions, Youxiang asked worriedly, "Yueyue, are you still feeling unwell?"

Qiao Yue gripped Youxiang's shoulders tightly with both hands. "No, I feel strangely comfortable right now. Little Youzi, what's wrong with my body? How come all those injuries are gone?"

Yu Xiang looked at Qiao Yue and said truthfully, "I gave you the medicine."

Qiao Yue raised an eyebrow, looking incredulous: "What kind of medicine could have such an effect? ​​Is it some kind of magic pill? Little Yuzu, you're kidding me."

Yu Xiang said earnestly, "It's a sacred medicine."

Qiao Yue was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Little Yuzu, talking about a holy medicine is a bit fantastical. Have you been reading too many novels? Did you hurt your brain in that fight?"

As she spoke, she reached out to touch Yuxiang's forehead to see if she had really injured her brain.

Yu Xiang grabbed Qiao Yue's hand directly.

"I'm fine, actually I..."

She took a deep breath, as if she had made a great decision, and told Qiao Yue in detail about the magical farming game she owned.

As Qiao Yue listened to Youxiang's story, her eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief.

This was so revolutionary to her that in her mind, such a thing was simply unbelievable.

But since she could survive even in the apocalypse, she quickly accepted the extraordinary things about Yuka.

She gently patted Yuzuru's shoulder. "No wonder you always poke at the air, you're playing a game we can't see. Wow, little Yuzuru, you have such a cheat code."

Yu Xiang pursed her lips slightly, a hint of hesitation in her eyes, "Yueyue, I want to..."

Upon hearing Youxiang's words, Qiao Yue pressed, "What are you thinking?"

Youxiang took a deep breath. "I want to go back to find Zhuozhuo, Yanyan, and Brother Chen. I don't know how they are doing, and I'm worried about them."

Qiao Yue's expression froze instantly, her eyes turning serious. She gently shook her head. "No, not now."

In truth, she longed to go back.

But they had just escaped from the base's encirclement and suppression; going back now would undoubtedly be walking into a trap.

Yu Xiang seemed to have all her strength drained away, her body limp as she leaned against Qiao Yue, her hands tightly embracing her, her eyes filled with sorrow and helplessness.

"Yueyue, will Zhuozhuo be alright?"

Qiao Yue gently patted Youxiang's back, suppressing her own sadness.

"It'll be alright. Zhuozhuo is so strong, she'll definitely be fine."

Youxiang didn't speak, but buried her head even deeper and hugged Qiao Yue tightly, as if she could draw a sense of security from her in this way.

In fact, she knew very well that Qin Zhuo's chances of survival in that fierce battle were extremely slim.

"Yueyue, I want to cry."

Yu Xiang's voice was muffled, tinged with sadness.

Qiao Yue stroked Youxiang's hair, "Cry, it'll make you feel better."

Yuka opened her mouth and let out a low whimper.

"Waaah~ Why don't zombies have tears?! I feel even worse now."

...

Bright Base.

Ye Tian stood tall on the wall, his eyes deep as he stared at the retreating horde of zombies.

The zombies gradually blurred into a dark outline in his vision, and his brows furrowed tightly, as if he were deep in thought.

At that moment, a staff member rushed over, his face showing grief and exhaustion.

"Lord, the sudden attack by the zombie horde has caused heavy losses to the base. More than a thousand people were injured and more than five hundred lost their lives. During the pursuit of Yuka and the others, about a hundred people were injured and about fifty died."

Upon hearing this news, Ye Tian felt a surge of anger rush to his head, and he slammed his fist against the wall next to him.

With a muffled thud, the blood on his hand instantly stained the wall red, the shocking red standing out starkly against the dark wall.

Upon seeing this, the staff were horrified, "Lord!"

Ye Tian took a deep breath, suppressing his anger.

"I'm fine. Tell people to handle the aftermath."

After saying that, he turned around and walked heavily down the wall.

As soon as I reached the foot of the wall, I saw Dr. S and Ren Ze coming to greet me.

Dr. S bowed slightly, "Lord!"

Ye Tian raised his hand to signal them to stop, "Let's talk in your lab."

Dr. S was taken aback for a moment, then realized what he meant and quickly replied, "Yes."

Inside the laboratory, the lights were dim, and all kinds of experimental equipment were neatly arranged.

Ye Tian extended his hand, which had been hidden in his sleeve, and said calmly, "Doctor, take a look, can this be restored?"

Dr. S took a closer look and couldn't help but gasp.

Ye Tian's hands were dry and twisted from lack of moisture, with jagged knuckles sticking out abruptly, and his grayish-yellow skin clinging tightly to his bones, covered with fine cracks.

Dr. S frowned, a puzzled look on his face. "Lord, how did your hand become like this?"

Ye Tian's eyes flickered slightly, his expression somewhat complicated.

"It was Yuxiang who did it. I didn't expect her to be so good at using water-based abilities. She can even control the water in the human body. I was careless and fell for her trick."

As Dr. S carefully examined Ye Tian's hand, he said, "Lord, the condition of your hand is rather complicated. I'm not sure I can restore it completely. I need some time to study it and see if there are any feasible solutions."

Ye Tian slowly withdrew his hand, his eyes becoming calm and undisturbed.

"It's alright if she can't recover. Just consider it a lesson. I underestimated Youxiang. I thought she was just relying on Qin Zhuo and didn't have any strength of her own. I didn't expect that to be the case."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "We absolutely cannot allow her to grow up; she will become a threat to humanity."

Dr. S nodded and offered his opinion.

“I think all of humanity needs to unite. We can’t keep Yuka’s existence a secret; we need to spread the word. We need to let everyone at the bases know about Yuka’s existence and get their help in finding and hunting her down.”

"I see."

Ye Tian stood up, preparing to leave the lab, but suddenly stopped and turned back, saying, "By the way, is Yuzuru important to the Doctor's research?"

When the research was mentioned, a hint of excitement flashed in Dr. S's eyes.

"Important. If we can conduct in-depth research on Yuxiang, we might be able to develop new methods to fight zombies, or even completely resolve the crisis of the apocalypse."

But that wasn't the main research he wanted.
