Suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, Lu Sheng calmly greeted the onlookers.

"I think I've seen this symptom before. There was a similar disease before the apocalypse, called Tourette syndrome?"

After enjoying the gossip to the fullest, Sun Tiantian playfully raised an eyebrow at Lu Sheng, finally steer the conversation back on track.

Xu Yi had already changed into a new pair of half-rimmed glasses. He adjusted the frames and explained, "After the apocalypse, these insects were also discovered on the bodies of patients with Tourette syndrome. But these insects are very fragile, especially the larvae, which cannot survive in the wild, so they did not cause a large-scale spread."

“Someone deliberately put the larvae into the young man’s ear,” Lu Sheng said seriously.

Back at Oasis Group, Lü Song couldn't contact the K3 base operator by radio. They had only been separated for a few days; some members of the K3 team were blind, some were missing, and some were infested with insects.

This series of events is too coincidental; there must be something wrong inside the K3 base.

The dog system really gave her a good task.

She's like a BBK e-reader; she points to wherever there's danger!

"Sister Lu, how could you tell he was crawled on by bugs? It's so dark, it's hard to find a person, let alone a bug." Zhang Xiaojuan looked bewildered.

Although he has accepted the premise that Lu Sheng is the chosen one, he should at least respect some of the science.

Lu Sheng took a bottle of crystal core extract and forced it into the mouth of the guy with glasses. "I heard Ma Dongmei say before that this kid comes from a professional military background and is very cautious when firing a gun. He didn't fire casually when we were in the Oasis, and he's even less likely to fire casually now that there's no light source."

"Moreover, his lips kept twitching involuntarily while he was speaking, and his emotions were off. He suddenly broke down and cried uncontrollably. These are all typical symptoms."

A few days ago, the system unlocked a daily quiz feature, which forces Lu Sheng to answer five questions every morning when he wakes up.

The questions are all about post-apocalyptic knowledge. You'll get a reward for answering correctly and lose points for answering incorrectly.

They call it taking responsibility for the host.

To consolidate the hard-won achievements of his base, Lu Sheng tearfully spent ten minutes each night before bed reciting the Doomsday Encyclopedia.

She just memorized this question yesterday.

But how does Xu Yi know this? Could it be that Xu Yi was also reborn?

After this incident, Lu Sheng required everyone to wear earplugs while sleeping and to check on each other every morning after waking up, with no room for complacency.

The next morning, after the people of Qijia Village woke up, Lu Sheng briefly explained the situation to them and subtly suggested that they leave.

But after whispering among themselves for a while, the villagers were determined to continue their journey to the K3 base.

“Something has likely happened at K3 base. Not only will you not get anything, you might also lose your lives,” Sun Tiantian explained in surprise.

Qi Peng gave a bitter smile and skewered the carrion pigs he had finally managed to find back into a string. "If we can't exchange them for supplies to take back, the rest of Qi Family Village won't be able to survive."

“The village only has grain and potatoes left, and all other living supplies are about to run out. We haven’t seen the sun for days, and the villagers are almost driven crazy. The fuel in the car is what the village managed to scrape together. If we go back in disgrace, everyone will be waiting to die.”

As higher animals, the human body and emotions are like complex and sophisticated instruments; a problem in any part can cause the machine to break down.

Losing sight and living in a dark environment for a long time will quickly cause the nervous system to collapse.

"I cannot guarantee the safety of all of you. Good luck."

Unable to persuade the villagers, Lu Sheng and her group had no choice but to lay bare the unpleasant truths beforehand.

In the apocalypse, there are unknown risks everywhere, and her personal abilities are limited, so she cannot take on the task of caring for so many people.

After a brief rest, the two teams continued their advance towards the K3 base.

The eye-blind guy, who had been unconscious, was securely strapped to the lawnmower seat, accompanied by a well-behaved scavenging pig.

The rest of the journey went surprisingly smoothly, with no major incidents along the way.

The lawnmower squadron entered the K3 base's territory safely in less than two hours.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, there was no bloody slaughter in sight; instead, there was a peaceful scene with wisps of smoke rising from chimneys.

"How...did I get back?"

The bespectacled young man, who had been sleeping the whole way, sat up with a bewildered look and stared at Lu Sheng and his group in surprise.

"Where's Young Master Su? Why did you come back alone?"

Before Lu Sheng and the others could answer, a tall and beautiful girl ran out of the base excitedly and went straight to the bespectacled guy to ask.
