Apocalyptic Nation: The Apocalypse is Ahead, I Have Your Back

"What are you afraid of? I'm still here." This was all Shi Yin could promise. As long as she remained, the Flame Dragon Nation would not perish.

Facing the apocalypse, Shi Yin dec...

Chapter 374 Is there a traitor?

"Shh, you're too impetuous. You'll never succeed at anything." Shi Yin said indifferently, bypassing Gu Changge and tossing the engraving to Jing Wu: "Take this."

“Amitabha, this is the manifestation of Benefactor Qin, how can you entrust it to me?” Jingwu hurriedly caught the golden-red engraving, feeling flattered and overwhelmed.

"Survival is the most important thing. This is just a means of self-preservation. If you don't take it, you won't be so lucky next time you encounter an emergency, with so many people here to help you." Shi Yin said, "You'll know the power of the imprint once you use it."

“This…” Jingwu looked at Gu Changge, then at Shi Yin, remained silent for a while, and finally agreed.

“Let’s go back.” Shi Yin turned around: “Notify the government to send people to collect the remains and bury them.”

The atmosphere on the street was very quiet.

The Leviathan attack lasted for two or three days, resulting in huge losses for humanity.

Not only did nearly half of the talented individuals at Mingtai Temple suffer losses, but the national team that was sent also lost many outstanding individuals with supernatural abilities.

When Leviathan was alive, the Sea of ​​Heaven sealed off this area, preventing outsiders from entering. When the sea receded, what everyone saw was a scene of devastation.

The once-full space of the superhuman training camp is now somewhat empty, and sometimes, people feel lost and confused when they pass by the dusty rooms.

Perhaps the frequent appearance of the Seven Deadly Sins triggered a second mutation of the zombie virus, or perhaps the New World developed a more potent zombie virus.

In short, a more intense zombie mutation has spread across the globe once again.

Some people were eating normally at home when they suddenly collapsed with shortness of breath, exhibiting symptoms similar to zombie mutations.

Most of the humans who survived the first wave of the zombie virus had antibodies in their bodies, so the second wave of the zombie virus could not break through in a short time. Even so, some people with weaker immune systems turned into zombies in a short period of time.

Fortunately, the soldiers and superhumans stationed at various locations were prepared. Upon detecting zombies, they immediately broke through the doors and took away the people inside who were about to turn into zombies.

For a whole month, people were filled with fear, both of their loved ones suddenly turning into zombies and attacking them, and of their families dying after turning into zombies. The world was plunged into panic once again.

"Miss, the Commander-in-Chief requests to see you." Nan Zhu walked over quickly.

Shi Yin is adjusting her mechanical left arm.

During this month, Helmod reattached an arm to Shiyin and, unsurprisingly, gave her a scolding. Ordinary mechanical arms couldn't withstand Shiyin's strength, and Helmod had to put in a lot of effort every time he made a mechanical arm for Shiyin.

He had to work without sleep for at least a week. If Helmod hadn't already transformed himself into a cyborg, he would have been killed long ago with such intense work.

When Nanzhu arrived, Shiyin was moving her fingers. The mechanical arm was connected to Shiyin's nerves, and it worked just like her own arm.

Any product from Helmod is guaranteed to be of high quality.

Shi Yin turned her chair around and looked at the person who hurriedly walked in through the door. Nan Zhu wanted to leave, but Shi Yin stopped him.

"Just listen from the side, it's nothing serious," Shi Yin said calmly. "What's wrong? You must be very busy lately."

When Shi Yin went out to find Helmod to install the mechanical arm, the documents and manuscripts naturally fell on the shoulders of the Chief Executive, who didn't get a chance to handle them.

Although Shion has been taking over work these past few days, the headmaster will likely be unable to attend to other matters for at least the next two weeks due to recent issues.

"The vaccine has been developed!" The commander's face was flushed with excitement. "Are these vaccines you developed really effective against the current zombie virus?"

"Don't misunderstand, this isn't the serum for the zombie virus, it's just something to calm the nerves." Shi Yin pushed the tea that Nan Zhu had brought over to the leader: "It's not that they were reinfected with the zombie virus, it's just that the New World used some methods to exacerbate the zombie virus."

"What do you mean?" The commander-in-chief didn't understand.

“Since the Seven Stars, it has basically been a war of emotions, which is why I mobilized emotional ability users to set up various radio stations, as you know,” Shi Yin said. “Before, the world was clearly in ruins, but people’s anxiety and depression were rising sharply, as you should also know.”

"I remember you said it was in the New World, that monsters were affecting humans," the commander recalled. "By the way... that arrogant one came to us."

"Hmm?" Shi Yin raised an eyebrow, seemingly unsurprised. "What did you say?"

"Basically, it's about sowing discord, saying you're from the new world, greedy, and so on." The leader thought for a moment, "But there seems to be a key point in what he said, that people with superpowers also belong to the category of zombies."

“He wasn’t trying to sow discord; what He said was true.” Shi Yin shrugged nonchalantly. “As for the second half of his sentence, it matches what I just said.”

“The zombie virus has never actually disappeared; it has been lurking in the bodies of people all over the world. It just broke out at the beginning of the apocalypse.” Shi Yin carefully chose her words: “So the people in the world are divided into three groups. The first group is obvious; they directly become zombies.”

"The second group consisted of ordinary people who successfully resisted the zombie virus; their immunity won a remarkable victory."

"As for the third batch, it's us superhumans. The zombie virus mutated and transformed into superhuman abilities, but we are still part of the zombies. It's just that the berserk factor has been temporarily suppressed."

"That's why I always say that no one should use their superpowers up to ten. Suppressing the berserk factor doesn't mean it disappears."

"Therefore, the New World has reignited these violent factors with emotions, causing a decline in the immunity of some people." The leader pointed out the point: "So, as long as a vaccine that can soothe emotions is invented, we can successfully resist this zombie virus crisis."

“Yes.” Shi Yin nodded in agreement.

“However, there’s a serious problem now…” At this point, the Commander-in-Chief lowered his voice: “Were these vaccines tested on humans?”

"Yes," Shi Yin readily admitted.

If the leader directly decides to use people for experiments, wouldn't that be tantamount to human experimentation? Isn't that a bit too unethical?

"Commander, you misunderstand. Those people are irreversibly corrupted by their emotions." Nan Zhu quickly explained from the side, "What Miss means is that even if they are not used for experiments, those people will inevitably go crazy and die."

"Moreover, if we don't conduct experiments on humans, it might take a long time to develop a vaccine, which might not be able to keep up with the current viral crisis."

“Of course I know what you’re saying, I’ve seen the report, but that’s not the problem.” The headmaster frowned, thought for a long time, and finally spoke: “Is there a traitor in the research department? Your human experimentation has been exposed, and the online public opinion is not optimistic…”
