(Chapter 150 has been revised; those who have trouble keeping up can reread it. Love you all!)
As soon as Lu Sheng turned around, she saw Rocket hiding behind the cabinet, secretly eating something.
Bats, like rats, carry many germs. Fearing that the rocket would get sick, she snatched food from it with her dog's mouth. Unexpectedly, she discovered that this mutated bat had a red geometric symbol on its chest.
Similar to the special symbols in Western cults, it makes people feel uncomfortable just looking at it.
Holy crap! It actually exists!
Zhang Xiaojuan ripped open Li Song's clothes, revealing half of his dark, muscular body. "You wouldn't guess that Li Song looks so upright, but he's actually quite wild in private and likes to get sexy little tattoos."
The remaining people immediately surrounded them.
Sure enough, on the right side of Li Song's chest, near his collarbone, there was a symbol that was so red it was almost black, exactly the same as the symbol on the mutated bat.
Xiao Yu tried rubbing it with her fingers, "It won't come off, but it doesn't look like a tattoo either."
“It’s the mark of a blood servant.” Lu Sheng closed the curtains again and temporarily covered them with a table.
What is a blood servant?
The remaining few people were completely bewildered, blinking and looking at Lu Sheng in unison.
"There is an extremely rare superpower called Blood Pact, which allows one to feed and tame humans or animals with their own blood. Once tamed, the unit will become the servant of the Blood Pact user."
There is a special connection between the blood servant and the master, and the master can command the blood servant to do anything within a certain range.
However, due to the blood connection, the injury or death of a blood servant can also cause a certain backlash against its master.
It's a double-edged sword type of superpower.
During their previous life, when they were struggling to survive, Lu Sheng and Sun Tiantian met a blood-bonded ability user.
However, due to his low talent, after awakening, he could only command small animals like puppies and kittens to do petty theft for him.
"Is there a limit to the number of blood servants?" Zhang Xiaojuan asked curiously.
"It increases based on the individual's talent and level. The person who controls Li Song and the bats is at least at the fourth level."
As Lu Sheng spoke, he glared at Rocket.
This guy had been clinging to her lap ever since, staring longingly at the remaining half of the mutated bat, his mouth watering.
Zhuangzhuang, standing to the side, flicked its fluffy tail with a look of disgust.
These low-quality, vicious dogs eat all sorts of unclean things every day; they're either wild humans or mutated bats!
Human, hurry up and chase it away!
"Why can't I have such a good opportunity!"
Zhang Xiaojuan's face was full of envy. "If I could get dozens or hundreds of these, I could set up a sweatshop and make these blood servants work 996 every day. I'd make a fortune!"
Lu Sheng and the others: "..."
"Juan'er".
Xiao Yu raised her hand and put it on Zhang Xiaojuan's shoulder, "It's a good thing you didn't become a boss, otherwise you would definitely be the first one to be hung up by a street lamp."
To prevent any remaining blood servants from remaining in the room, the group divided their tasks and searched every corner of the room.
Sure enough, they found two or three more fish that had slipped through the net under the bed and under the toilet seat.
Before Lu Sheng and the others could even begin to process them, Rocket devoured them all, one after another.
"Han Rui, why is your ear bleeding?"
After everyone finished tidying up and prepared to rest, Sun Tiantian suddenly touched Han Rui's ear in surprise.
Han Rui was wearing a white babydoll dress today, and the two coin-sized dark red bloodstains on her shoulder looked particularly noticeable.
"It must have been from the sonic waves of the mutated bats." Han Rui touched her earlobe with a wronged expression, where there were two dried bloodstains.
"Han Rui is only at the third level, so she is more severely affected by sound waves."
Lu Sheng took out a box of anti-inflammatory medicine and handed it to her, when suddenly a brilliant idea flashed in his mind.
"From now on, we can only eat the food and water we brought ourselves, and we must not touch any food from the West Market."
Lu Sheng reminded us with a serious expression, "The Blood Servant has likely been following us all the way."
"Why? With so many of us, if we were being watched, we would have noticed long ago." Zhang Xiaojuan sprawled casually on the sofa.
"Do you remember the mutated tiger mosquito we encountered on the way to the West Market?" Lu Sheng asked solemnly. "Han Rui once said that her ears hurt and thought it was altitude sickness."
Lu Sheng reminded them, and then they remembered what had happened.
"There's no such thing as altitude sickness in inland areas. Han Rui should have already been affected by the sound waves!"
Sun Tiantian suddenly realized, "But we were so busy dealing with the mosquitoes that we completely overlooked it!"
"So what do we do now?"
The sky was already faintly turning light at dawn. Lu Sheng glanced at the dark circles under the eyes of the people in front of him and said, "Rest first. You guys wait at the hotel tomorrow. I'll go out and scout things out."
To prevent Li Song from launching another sneak attack, the group not only tied him up, but Lu Sheng also spent 100,000 points from the system shop to exchange for an ability suppressant.
For 48 hours after the injection, Li Song was no different from an ordinary person and could not cause trouble for the time being.
Lu Sheng and the others finally fell asleep peacefully, but some people found it difficult to sleep.
Inside a luxury mansion in the West Market, a tall, handsome man, his face ashen, clutched his chest and staggered to the ground on the sofa.
"Damn it... I was so close..."
The beautiful woman beside him carefully flattered him, "She was just unlucky this time, we'll get rid of her soon..."
*Smack*
The man slapped her hard across the face, leaving a clear handprint.
"It's all because you're such a useless piece of trash!"
...
The next morning, Lu Sheng left Rocket behind as a security guard and left the hotel alone with Zhuangzhuang.
Xu Yi was extremely weak after using her decomposition ability, and the rest of the people had to take care of Xiao Zhu and Li Song. Rather than having a large group of people waste time, it was better for her to go out and investigate alone.
It was just past 8:30, and the black market was already bustling with people.
As soon as Lu Sheng stepped into the market, he was pushed to the side of the road by the crowd behind him.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! We'll be late!"
Seven or eight young people hurriedly jostled and pushed their way through the crowd, heading towards the other side of the black market.
"Ah, it's good to be young. You can get food even if you don't do anything and just get an injection." A woman in her fifties next to Lu Sheng said with envy.
"Sister, where are these people going?" Lu Sheng asked, turning to the side as she looked in the direction the group had left.
The woman was overjoyed by the simple word "sister," and immediately began to speak freely and without reservation, saying, "Oh, young lady, you just arrived, right?"
"Today is the day Gujia Hospital collects blood. Young people aged 18-35 can exchange 400cc of blood for five catties of fine rice and two catties of pork, as long as they pass the test."
Collecting blood?
What's the point of collecting blood in the apocalypse?
Lu Sheng narrowed her eyes and asked softly, "The hospital is closed, what does the Gu family need blood for?"
"You wouldn't believe it," Auntie immediately launched into a long explanation. "Miss Gu is kind-hearted. She temporarily opened her private hospital to the public to collect blood in order to save some critically ill patients."
