However, Han Lingxi's departure was not so smooth. When she was leaving with the girl, they were blocked by three level-five zombies. Han Lingxi suddenly had a feeling that the cause of this zombie horde was this girl.

Han Lingxi held the child in one arm. Although the little girl was three or four years old, she was not light. This was no problem for her, a fifth-level zombie. Han Lingxi sensed that something was wrong with the child and was eager to check her condition. She did not want to linger in the fight, so she cast several binding seals to buy time and quickly left with the child in her arms.

Han Lingxi ran a long way, and after confirming that the zombies wouldn't be able to find them for a while, she took out her house and gently placed the little girl on the bed.

Han Lingxi's body wasn't feeling well yet, and she had no way of knowing if the child was sick with a fever. Han Lingxi remembered that she seemed to have thrown a lot of things from the pharmacy into her spatial storage, but she had thrown them away too carelessly and hadn't tidied up the things in her space, so she couldn't find the thermometer anywhere.

"System, what's wrong with this child?"

Han Lingxi had no choice but to seek help from the system.

"She has been infected with the zombie virus and is mutating."

Han Lingxi was initially startled. Infecting someone with the zombie virus would turn them into a zombie. Then she found it funny. Of course, an ordinary person would panic upon hearing such news, as it would be too dangerous for someone close to them to suddenly turn into a zombie. But she was a zombie herself, so why should she be afraid of being bitten again?

Han Lingxi looked at the cute little girl on the bed with some regret. She was so young, it was such a pity that she had become a zombie.

"Theoretically speaking, one side of her belongs to the potential activation mutation."

The system's voice rang in Han Lingxi's mind. Han Lingxi's eyes twitched, and she took a deep breath to suppress her anger.

Speak like a human.

"That means she's likely to become a superhuman."

The system did provide a helpful explanation.

"My superpowers were all activated on the night the apocalypse came, but I never expected them to be activated again at this time."

Han Lingxi felt that this was different from her understanding. Basically, those who did not activate their superpowers that night were all ordinary people, and she had never heard of anyone being able to activate their superpowers again.

"The zombie virus invading the human body can cause gene mutations. Becoming a superhuman is one type of mutation, becoming a zombie is another, and she belongs to the third type: mutation of mental power."

"Mental strength?"

Han Lingxi exclaimed in surprise. She finally understood why a small child could cause such a large-scale zombie horde. The limiting conditions for zombies to upgrade are energy and spirit. Most zombies are very stupid, and improving their spirit depends entirely on luck. Now, the appearance of this child has given zombies a shortcut. As long as they devour her crystal core, their spiritual power will be greatly improved. Of course, this makes those zombies with sufficient energy but insufficient spirit flock to her.

Han Lingxi certainly didn't need to worry about mental issues. Before she came, she had already greatly improved the intelligence attribute of this zombie body, and her soul had experienced many planes, so her mental strength was very strong. She didn't need to worry about mental issues at all; as long as she had enough energy, she could level up.

"Won't she run into some problems doing this?"

Han Lingxi was somewhat worried about the unconscious little girl.

"No, she will wake up soon as long as she is not attacked. However, if she does not have enough energy when she awakens, it may affect her future potential."
