The screams from the second floor grew fainter and fainter.

In the end, all that remained was the crunching sound of chewing, which sent chills down one's spine.

Lu Sheng and the others exchanged uneasy glances, secretly tightening their grips on their weapons.

"It's alright, it's nothing, just a small matter, don't worry."

Bao Jie caught a glimpse of the people's movements out of the corner of her eye, and smiled as she tossed her hair aside.

A pretty woman in a uniform—this classic combination should have created a sensual and alluring scene.

But now, the group felt a chill run from their feet all the way to the back of their heads.

What cop would betray their teammate first when encountering zombies?!

"The injection you gave her... was it thirteen-spice powder or ginger and scallion water? Was it to remove the fishy smell from the meat?"

Zhang Xiaojuan broke out in a cold sweat and cautiously asked Bao Jie.

In the past, they would add some seasonings before delivering the dishes, which touched the hearts of Chinese restaurant owners.

[Items Obtained: 10 Potent Stamina Recovery Potions]

[Item Obtained: 5 Self-Destructing Sheep (Grumpy little sheep that will self-destruct when attacked)]

[Bonus Reward: 150,000 points]

As the atmosphere reached a stalemate, the system suddenly emitted several cold notification sounds in succession.

Lu Sheng subconsciously looked up at the landing on the second floor and poked Zhuangzhuang's big head with her finger.

"All the information indices upstairs have disappeared..."

Zhuangzhuang meowed twice in confusion.

Lu Sheng lowered his gaze and turned to look at the composed Bao Jie and Jiang Lan duo.

Both the system notification and Zhuangzhuang's perception confirmed that the level 2 zombies upstairs had suddenly all died.

Could it be because he ate Sister Mei?

Thinking about Sister Mei's impatient face as she faced death, all the clues seemed to connect.

The zombies collectively got sick from eating bad food. Although this reason sounded a bit outrageous, Lu Sheng couldn't come up with a better explanation for it at the moment.

"Keep an eye on your watch, is it time yet?"

As she spoke, Baojie took out a roll of blue plaid bed sheet and a folding frame, and deftly set up the curtain at the corner of the stairs.

Jiang Lan stared intently at the Little Genius watch she had somehow acquired. "Almost there, only 3 seconds left!"

“3”

“2”

"1!"

As Jiang Lan's clear voice rang out, a sticky wet patch suddenly seeped out from under the simple curtain.

Like canned slime sold by vendors near the school gate, a large puddle of clear, jelly-like semi-solid liquid slowly flowed down to the feet of the group.

A faint fishy smell gradually filled the air.

A chilling atmosphere once again weighed heavily on Lu Sheng and the others' hearts.

"Lin Xiaobao, can't you practice your injection technique? You've made my skin swollen again!"

A slightly hoarse, smoky voice suddenly broke the thick silence in the air.

Sister Mei peeked out from behind the curtain, pointing with a displeased expression to the red lump on her right arm.

"Holy crap."

Lu Sheng and the others were startled, and Zhang Xiaojuan instinctively gasped.

The simple curtain only reached below Sister Mei's collarbone, and from Lu Sheng and the others' angle, they could just see her smooth shoulders exposed.

She was naked, and her fair skin was covered with a layer of slime-like mucus.

Like a newborn baby.

"Put your clothes on first, there are still three men here." Baojie snorted and tossed in a set of light clothes.

Lu Sheng and the others: "..."

burst.

He suddenly appeared alive on the spot.

"I haven't been to the city for a few days, and everyone there has mastered cloning technology??"

Zhang Xiaojuan was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped. She turned around and looked at Lu Sheng and Xu Yi with a completely bewildered expression.

Han Rui, ever the curious one, had already gone over and poked Sister Mei's lotus root-like arm, "The flesh is soft..."

"Isn't that obvious? If the flesh gets hard, the person will die."

Sister Mei had already gotten dressed and came out. She leaned against the smooth, cold wall of the corridor and took out the cigarette she hadn't smoked earlier.

She held the cigarette in her mouth, grabbed the soft, flaky neck, and squeezed out a tiny flame.

Just as the tobacco was lit.

Zhuangzhuang shrank back in fear, terrified that he would be the next victim.

"Don't be afraid, this is Sister Mei's special ability."

After putting away the sheets and bed frame, the obedient Jiang Lan remembered that she needed to explain to the shocked people.

"Sister Mei's special ability is called poison bait."

"Zombies of the same or lower level as Sister Mei will die within five minutes if they eat Sister Mei's flesh."

Zhang Xiaojuan looked bewildered. "What kind of crappy superpower is this? It's just a death sentence. Zombies are like mad dogs; once they bite, they won't let go. Even if you die from poison, it's a mutual destruction."

"So after awakening the poison bait, Sister Mei also gained a passive ability." Sister Bao still had that smiling expression on her face.

"If more than 10 percent of the body tissue remains after death, one can be revived within five minutes."

Sun Tiantian's eyes widened in surprise, "What if the remaining part is less than ten percent?"

"It will cool completely."

Sister Mei took a deep drag of her cigarette and exhaled a string of faint smoke rings.

Sun Tiantian: "..."

"If we just protect a part of Sister Mei's body tissue, can't we just get through the poisonous route? We won't even have to fight."

Han Rui asked with an innocent look on her face.

"Of course not." Sister Mei glanced at Han Rui out of the corner of her eye. "This passive ability can only be used once a day, and it's usually only used when you're in a hurry and encounter a horde of zombies."

"Then... what if we cut off some flesh and threw it into the zombie horde? Wouldn't that poison them too?" Han Rui asked, puzzled. "Isn't it unnecessary to put ourselves in such a life-or-death situation every time?"

"Level 2 zombies have developed a certain degree of self-awareness; they will only chase after living creatures."

Mei had finished her cigarette, and after both teams had rested, they set off again to find the medical team.

"Are you looking for morphine or pethidine?"

According to the building's map, the CT room was on the fourth floor, to the right. As they climbed the stairs, Lu Sheng turned to ask.

Jiang Lan nodded. "Yes, to alleviate Sister Mei's pain, Sister Bao would give her an injection of Demerol to relieve the pain before she went to act as bait each time."

Demerol is a strictly controlled narcotic analgesic drug, and it cannot be obtained from anywhere except hospitals.

After understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Lu Sheng actually appreciated the trio of Jiang Lan and her companion.

It must be that a deep trust has been established between them that they dare to entrust their lives to another person.

Especially Sister Mei, who seems to have a bad temper, but the pain of being eaten alive by zombies is unimaginable to most people.

The third and fourth floors were mostly infested with level one zombies, and the two teams quickly cleared the area with a flurry of sparks and lightning.

"This should be it."

After clearing out the remaining zombies on the fourth floor, the two teams finally stopped in front of a door with a radiation warning sign.

Is anyone inside?

Xiao Yu rushed to the door and knocked several times.
