Chapter 78 Forced Love...
Liu Ning stomped on Xie Zong's face: "You're like a dung beetle wearing a mask—shameless!"
He stomped his shoe on the other person's cheek a few times: "What are you studying medicine for? You should be writing screenplays, even more exciting than pre-apocalyptic prime-time dramas!"
Xie Zong groaned and curled up on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood mixed with two teeth.
Liu Ning then withdrew his foot, turned around, and bumped into He Zhuo, who had just come upstairs.
He Zhuo whistled loudly: "A dung beetle wearing a mask...!"
I love this line! I'll write it down! I'll use it next time I want to curse!
Liu Ning: "..."
Standing behind Lu Nange, Chi Yanzhou leaned against the wall and asked He Zhuo, "How's it going downstairs?"
He Zhuo: "Yan-ge, Mei-bao, don't worry! The situation downstairs is basically under control. There are still some who are struggling, but they are being beaten up by Ci-ge and the others!"
Chi Yanzhou was somewhat surprised: "A group fight? Aren't you going?"
He Zhuo: "I was just worried that you might encounter some danger, so I came upstairs to check on you first!"
Lu Nange didn't interrupt. She grabbed Xie Zong's collar and said, "I have no interest in your terrible script!"
Her fingers tightened: "You just need to tell me why she doesn't attack people?"
Xie Zong coughed up blood: "I gave...Xing He...a sedative!"
Lu Nange raised an eyebrow: "Sedatives can make zombies quiet?"
“As long as…she always has ‘food’…” Xie Zong gasped for breath, “and with a sedative…Xinghe will be very obedient!”
Lu Nange: ...[We also need food?]
She suddenly let go, letting Xie Zong fall back to the ground like a rag doll.
Turning to Liu Ning, he asked, "Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyou, are they sisters?"
Liu Ning's chin trembled slightly, and a tear fell onto her shoe: "Yes, Sister Xingyou has been looking for Sister Xinghe, but..."
Her gaze fell on the zombie curled up in the cage, and her voice suddenly choked.
"I just never expected... Sister Xinghe would be like this..."
Lu Beiye pulled a pack of wet wipes from his pocket and stood on tiptoe to wipe Lu Nange's hands.
Lu Nange ruffled her younger brother's hair and turned to Liu Ning: "Then you should contact Luo Xingyou!"
"Yes...yes! We have to tell Xingyou right away!"
Liu Ning suddenly realized what was happening and pulled out his walkie-talkie.
Amidst the chaotic crackling of the electricity, her calls sounded urgent: "Sister Xingyou? Sister Xingyou!"
The only response she received was the soft, white noise.
After a while, Fei Tian's intermittent voice came through: "Liu Ning? What happened? How's the situation on your end? Are your benefactors alright?"
"Our benefactors are alright, but we've found Sister Xinghe!" Liu Ning said quickly. "Fei Tian, have Sister Xingyou come over to the lab!"
After a brief silence, Luo Xingyou's voice finally came through the walkie-talkie.
"Liu Ning, you mean... my sister?" Luo Xingyou's voice trembled slightly.
"Yes...yes." Liu Ning took a deep breath: "Sister Xingyou, you...you need to be prepared..."
"Bang!"
A dull thud came from the other end of the walkie-talkie, indicating that a body had hit the wall.
Fei Tian helped her up: "Xingyou, how are you?"
"Fei Tian..." Luo Xingyou's voice suddenly became unusually clear: "I'm leaving this place to you!"
"Understood!" Fei Tian: "We've almost got this area under control! Go quickly!"
Luo Xingyou wiped her tears hard with her sleeve and ran as fast as she could towards the laboratory.
The laboratory was filled with a strong smell of blood.
He Zhuo kicked Xie Zong, who was lying on the ground barely alive, and was about to ask him a question when he was suddenly interrupted by a noise coming from the stairwell.
"Tap, tap, tap—"
Chi Yanzhou glanced downstairs and saw that Lu Xici and the others had gone upstairs, their clothes stained with black and red blood.
Chi Yanzhou: "Resolved?"
Lu Xici: "Well, a guy named Wu Ge is cleaning up downstairs! He's pierced every head to prevent them from turning into zombies."
Gu Qi leaned against the wall, panting, "Those transplanted ability users are pretty weak!"
Liu Ning nodded: "Brother Ge is one of ours."
Gu Wan's gaze shifted from Xie Zong's mangled body on the ground: "Nan Nan, who is this person?"
The zombie that was moved to the cage said, "This is a domesticated zombie? What kind of hobby is that? It's perverted!"
Wen Qing quickly explained Luo Xinghe's situation.
Before he finished speaking, He Zhuo and Gu Wan rushed forward and kicked Xie Zong again.
"Damn, that old pervert!"
Gu Wan spat in disgust: "Disgusting! How old are you, still engaging in forced love!"
She glanced at the iron cage, her eyes suddenly dimming: "It's just a pity about Luo Xingyou's sister..."
The sound of hurried footsteps grew louder as they approached.
Luo Xingyou, gripping the escalator, was breathing heavily; her uniform was soaked with sweat. "Liu Ning...where's my sister?"
Liu Ning's lips trembled, and in the end, she simply pointed silently to the corner.
Lu Nange and the others silently made way for them.
Luo Xingyou's knuckles clenched so tightly they turned white as she walked step by step toward the iron cage.
When she saw what was inside the cage, her knees slammed heavily to the ground—
Her older sister, the gentle and charming Luo Xinghe, was currently gnawing on a severed limb.
Bloodstains snaked from the corner of his mouth down his neck, starkly contrasting against his pale skin.
"Sister...it's me, Xingyou..." Her voice trailed off, and she reached out to touch her: "Look at me..."
The zombie continued to tear at flesh with unwavering focus, showing no response to the calls.
Luo Xingyou suddenly smashed off the severed limb: "Sister! It's me! It's Youyou!"
Deprived of food, Luo Xinghe suddenly looked up, her orange eyes darting around, and then abruptly lunged to grab Luo Xingyou.
Liu Ning pulled Luo Xingyou away in time, and the iron cage banged loudly under the violent impact.
"How could this be...?" Luo Xingyou slumped to the ground.
"It's Xie Zong..." Liu Ning choked back tears, pointing to the man in the pool of blood, "It's all his fault..."
Luo Xingyou slowly turned her head, her gaze falling on Xie Zong, who was on the verge of death.
In that instant, the last light in her eyes went out.
"It's you again..." she whispered, but each word carried a chilling intent: "I will kill you... Even if you are torn to pieces, it will not be enough to quell the hatred in my heart..."
A burst of golden supernatural light erupted, and dozens of sharp cones materialized out of thin air, piercing through Xie Zong's body.
Blood splattered on the walls and the floor.
It forms a strange radial pattern.
Luo Xingyou only stopped when her supernatural powers were exhausted and her face turned pale. There was no intact body left on the ground.
Luo Xingyou looked at Luo Xinghe, who had stopped crashing and was now gnawing on a blood clot.
"My sister loves cleanliness..." Luo Xingyou murmured to herself, her steps unsteady as she approached Luo Xinghe: "Don't be afraid, sister, everything will be over soon!"
The sharp cone pierced Luo Xinghe's forehead.
The moment Luo Xinghe collapsed, Luo Xingyou could no longer hold on and spit out a mouthful of blood.
Following Lu Nange's instructions, Lu Beiye opened the iron cage.
Luo Xingyou gently waved Liu Ning's hand.
She used her elbows to support herself as she crawled toward Luo Xinghe and tightly embraced Luo Xinghe's body.
Tears welled up in her eyes: "Sister, I'll take you home right now, let's go home..."
The first rays of dawn pierced through the thick clouds, casting a chilly morning light on the streets of Quzhou.
The walkie-talkie on Liu Ning's waist emitted a crackling sound.
Fei Tian's hoarse cheers made everyone's eardrums hurt: "Liu Ning, we won!"
Liu Ning's legs went weak, and she collapsed to the ground.
The fear, fatigue, and tension that had accumulated over the past few days suddenly burst forth at this moment.
Tears, mingling with the dirt on her face, streamed down her trembling cheeks.
His voice choked with sobs, barely audible: "We won...we won!"
A wave of cheers surged up from the first floor.
"We won! We won!"
