Chapter 27: Supernatural Evolution (1)

Qin Muxue replied: "I'm not laughing at you, I just think you're overestimating yourself."

The more Hao Yulan thought about it, the angrier she became, and she became more hostile towards Qin Muxue.

Captain Huang quickly stepped out to act as a peacemaker: "We are all on the same boat now, so stop arguing and work together to find supplies!"

Each of them had the food they had just been allocated, but this food could not last long. If the girls ate less, it could last for four or five days, but the boys consumed more and would finish it in about two or three days.

The supermarket where they had found the supplies was still a long way away. Captain Huang and the other three were well trained, and it would take them a day and a night to go back and forth. If it was such a large group of people, it would take at least two or three days.

It's acid raining outside now, making it even more difficult to move.

Wu You, who was standing by, had developed a great liking for this older sister ever since Qin Muxue helped their family.

After everyone found a quiet place to rest, Wu You gave half of the bread in his hand to Qin Muxue, "Big sister, it's too much for me to finish it all, so why not give half to you!"

Qin Muxue declined politely, "You are still growing up, so you should eat more. Don't worry, I will eat enough."

"Sister, your dog looks so majestic. She must want some food too! Can I give her some?"

In fact, Qin Muxue often fed Baozhu some freeze-dried food, beef jerky and the like when no one else was paying attention. Baozhu really wasn't hungry at all. Looking at its heroic and high-spirited appearance, it didn't look like a starving dog at all.

Even Pearl, who was lying on her shoulder, was round and had shiny hair.

It’s no wonder that those people were eyeing them covetously, but Qin Muxue would never allow anyone to have any thoughts about her dog and cat. They are her companions.

"Don't worry! Baozhu is not hungry!" She touched Baozhu's head, and Baozhu lay beside her very obediently.

Captain Huang said: "I knew at first glance that this was a retired military dog. Its spirit and energy were different from those of ordinary pet dogs. I also raised one before, but unfortunately, it was killed in the explosion while trying to save me."

Captain Huang looked at Baozhu with loving eyes. Baozhu could also tell the kindness of humans towards her. She raised her head and licked Captain Huang.

Captain Huang couldn't bear it, so he gave her half of his bread and said, "Eat it!"

Baozhu didn't move, and seemed to have no interest in the food. However, in Captain Huang's eyes, this dog was very loyal to humans and would not eat human food even if it was starving.

"What a good dog!" he couldn't help but exclaim.

What Baozhu was thinking was that she only ate meat and had no interest in bread. When no one else knew, Baozhu had already eaten her fill.

Qin Muxue hugged Baozhu awkwardly and said, "Thank you for your kindness. Baozhu is quite human. She won't eat other people's food except the food I feed her."

Hao Yulan and Lu Hui looked at each other. They had been coveting this fish for a long time, but they had never had the chance to do it.

By the time they got rid of the dog, the rest of the people were helpless. This man is always more important than the dog!

So they were looking for an opportunity to lure Baozhu with food and then kill her.

But this dog is not interested in human food. It seems that they have to find another way. The cat is more troublesome. But think about it, there is not much meat on the cat, so the dog has more meat.

The acid rain was drizzling down, and after falling into the flood, even the flood became corrosive, making it much more difficult for them to advance.

Many places require wading through water, but the water flows are interconnected. Now they are forced to be trapped here and can only wait for the acid rain outside to stop before they can find another way to leave.

From the beginning, Qin Muxue felt that Zhenzhu had been in a very alert state, grinning and showing off her anger from time to time.

At first, she thought Zhenzhu was frightened by Hao Yulan and her husband, so she could only comfort her, "Zhenzhu, there's nothing to be afraid of about those two people. If they dare to bully you again, I will kill them and give you food."

Pearl used brain waves to communicate with Qin Muxue, "No, Master, I feel that there are strange creatures slowly approaching here, and there are a lot of them."

Qin Muxue's heart sank. It seemed that another mutant creature was about to appear.

Now, in the midst of numerous crises, although she has stockpiled a lot of supplies, she cannot take them out in front of this group of people. People's hearts are unpredictable, and she cannot expect everyone to be as kind as Manman and believe in herself.

Even if it was Qu Yanbai, he also carried his own secrets, and the two of them were just teammates. If other interests were involved, their relationship might fall apart, let alone other strangers.

She could only try her best to hide her secret, while also worrying about Ding Manman.

Ding Manman has no special powers and her physique is relatively weak. Although her physical fitness has become much stronger than before after the spiritual spring water has been transformed, she will still be in danger if she encounters mutant creatures and dangerous people with special powers.

I can't always be by her side to protect her. Qin Muxue originally planned to inject her with a mutation drug, but she was afraid of side effects. Why not experiment on herself first!

She hid in a corner stealthily, saying that she was going to relieve herself, but in fact she was taking the medicine and injecting it into her body.

If she doesn't have any super powers, then she will create one for herself.

Her arm was swollen and painful at the injection site, but fortunately she could bear the pain. Now she just hoped that she could stimulate a useful superpower. Even if there were some minor side effects, she could accept them.

The end of the world is an era of the survival of the fittest. These side effects and weakness are probably not worth mentioning. If you are too weak, you will be bullied, especially women. In her previous life, she tried every possible way, and with Sang Xi by her side, she did not attract the attention of other men. Now she has to protect herself and also protect Manman.

Qin Muxue felt as if the meridians in her body were about to burst, and an intense pain swept through her whole body.

She stumbled and fell into Ding Manman's arms. Ding Manman was almost anxious to death. She fed her water and wiped the sweat off her body.

"Xiaoxue, what's wrong with you?" Ding Manman touched her forehead and it was burning hot.

She quickly rummaged through her bag, took out a mercury thermometer, and after measuring Qin Muxue's temperature, she found that it was almost 40 degrees.

She frantically searched for the antipyretic medicine, "Xiaoxue, what's wrong with you? Why do you have such a high fever?"

Hao Yulan gloated: "You still say how strong you are, but now you have such a severe fever, you won't die here! I tell you, you must not drag us down."

Qin Muxue vaguely heard Hao Yulan mumbling there. She didn't expect the side effects of the medicine on her would be so serious. She dragged her tired body up and said, "Don't worry, I won't drag you down even if I die."

Captain Huang said, "We have to rest here for a while anyway, so you should take good care of her first."

Wu You often came to look after Qin Muxue and would bring her some of his remaining snacks. "Sister Qin, my grandmother said that if you are too sad, you will feel better if you eat something you like. Eat some! You will feel better."

"Thank you for your thought, but I can't eat anything right now." He stood by her side with a worried look on his face, like a little knight.

Not only him, but everyone else was also concerned about Qin Muxue's injuries. Except for Hao Yulan's family who would add insult to injury, the rest of the people took out their own food and wanted to share it with Qin Muxue, because they were grateful to her for her care.

Grandma Qu wanted to use the old method to cure her illness, something like after-school therapy, but Qu Yanbai quickly stopped her, "Grandma, you can't just go to random doctors when you are sick!"

Thinking of his mission, Captain Huang felt a little flustered. He had made a mistake before. Fortunately, the little girl was smart and clever, and this time when she fell ill, no one could intervene.

The three of them were all soldiers and didn't know much about medical knowledge.

Captain Huang asked the two soldiers to watch them, and he picked up the wireless communication equipment, ran to the highest point and tuned to a channel. Soon there was a response from the other side, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He had tried several times but failed, but this time he finally succeeded.

A deep voice came from the other side, "Have you found the person?"

"We found it, but one of the little girls is sick. There is no doctor or medicine here. I am afraid she will not be able to hold on."

"Hold on, I'll send a helicopter over right away! Where are you now?"

Captain Huang looked around and mentioned all the iconic buildings. Now, most of the houses were only ruins, but fortunately there was a tall tower not far away.

"We are in a home supplies store south of the tower..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the signal could not be received again, and he didn't know whether the other party received the signal he sent.

At this time, Qin Muxue was still fighting against the medicine in her body. This was the first batch of medicine produced, and the side effects would be stronger. The most important thing was to rely on one's physique and willpower.

While she was drowsy, she felt someone feeding water into her mouth.

In a trance, Qin Muxue seemed to hear someone calling her name, "Xiaoxue...Xiaoxue."

Who is it? Who is calling her?

Qin Muxue opened her eyes and saw her mother. She was still as young and beautiful as ever, without any change.

She walked to Qin Muxue with a smile on her face and held her in her arms. "Xiaoxue, you have to hold on. Mom has fought for this opportunity for you. You must live well in this life."

"Mom? Is it really because of you that I can live again?"

"Because Xiaoxue, you are not destined to die. You still have friends, Manman, Zhenzhu and Baozhu who need to be protected, so you must hold on. Mom will always be here to protect you." Qin Muxue threw herself into her mother's arms. At this moment, she just wanted to cry unrestrainedly and feel her mother's warmth.

The mother held her tightly in her arms and comforted her. When Qin Muxue woke up again, she found Baozhu licking her face non-stop. She was sore all over and was lying in Manman's arms.

"Manman..." she called out weakly.

"Xiaoxue, you finally woke up." Ding Manman rubbed her eyes and touched Qin Muxue's forehead, and found that her fever had subsided.

Qin Muxue felt a force flowing in her body. She looked at the palm of her hand, and it seemed that the vitality of her palm had quietly changed.

"You had a fever just now and really scared me. Fortunately, you finally woke up." Ding Manman shed tears without realizing it.

Qin Muxue thought about the dream she had just had. Maybe her mother was really protecting her in the dark, so she left this space for her to save her life.

"Manman, I'm hungry." She was exhausted and her stomach growled, "Help me over there!"

Qin Muxue didn’t know whether her special abilities had evolved or not, but she felt her stomach was empty and she was so hungry that she could eat ten cows.

Under Ding Manman's cover, Qin Muxue found a lot of food in the space and stuffed it into her stomach without any care, until she wanted to vomit.

She drank a lot of spiritual spring water. With the help of the spiritual spring water, she felt her body slowly recovering, and she should be almost recovered.

After seeing that she was getting better, many people in the team breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Muxue naturally remembered who were the people who were good to her and who were the people with bad intentions.

On the other side, a woman suddenly exclaimed: "Oh my God, what is that?"

Hao Yulan saw a group of dark creatures swimming towards them in the water. They were so nervous that their hearts were about to jump out of their chests. In contrast, everyone else seemed much calmer than them.

"Captain Huang, what do you think that is?"

Captain Huang frowned, "I saw it. It was a group of mutant rats."

This group of rats are not even afraid of the corrosive substances in the flood. It’s creepy to think about how evolved they have become.

In the darkness, the eyes of these mice emitted a faint red light, like devils in the night.

Their sharp fangs don't look like those of mice, but rather a group of man-eating beasts.

Pearl let out a howl. She had sensed the movements of the group of rats a long time ago. The mutant rats had very strong destructive capabilities. Wherever they went, even the plants would be eaten away, and even metals would be eaten away.

The mutant rat army was getting closer and closer to them. Seeing the danger approaching step by step, Qin Muxue could only shout: "Zhenzhu, go and get rid of them!"

Pearl shook her hair and, in front of everyone's surprised eyes, she became gigantic, leaving those watching in amazement.

"Oh my god, how did this cat get so big?"

Lu Hui was frightened and panicked. He thought that he had once thought of eating the cat, but now he thought that he was lucky not to be eaten by it.

Pearl watched the rats come ashore. She clawed at them, blood spurted out, and the ground was covered with rat remains.

But the army of mice kept squeaking and pouring in, and Pearl could not destroy them all by herself.

Hao Yulan was so scared that she kept jumping up and down. Even though she was standing on a high place, the group of rats would still swarm up towards her.

Captain Huang and the other two soldiers took out their pistols, but looking at the black group of rats, they had no idea where to start.

The bullets they carried were limited, not enough to kill a few rats...
