What happened at the market that day has been a hot topic in the base recently.

Whether it is a team going out on a mission or a survivor staying in the base, they will talk about this topic whenever they meet or chat with others.

The more people discussed this matter, the more attention it received. In the end, even several bases, large and small, near the Yancheng base knew about it, and some bases even sent people to inquire about the situation.

Under pressure from all sides, as soon as there was progress, the base immediately sent someone to clarify the facts and explain the truth, not even waiting for the third day.

——This incident has nothing to do with the poor management of the base. The person was infected with the virus because he ate the meat of mutant animals. This infection occurred inside the base, so of course the inspection at the gate could not detect it.

Province G is close to the sea. Although Yancheng Base is not on the seashore, many people there sell meat of various mutant animals. Of course, due to the geographical location, people live by the mountains and by the sea, and this is also the case after the end of the world. Yancheng Base mainly sells animals from the river and the sea.

When the mutant animals first appeared, not many people thought of this, or some simply did not think of it at all, because food was relatively abundant at that time.

But now it is different, food is becoming increasingly scarce, some people are really hungry, and when they see mutant animals killed on the roadside, they suddenly have an idea and eat them without thinking twice. Because if they don't eat, they will also starve to death, so it is better to be a glutton after death.

These first humans who tried the mutant animals found that nothing happened to them after eating the meat, and they did not die as they had imagined.

However, because mutants are quite powerful, and some are even more ferocious than zombies, not all ordinary people are lucky enough to encounter the corpses of mutants thrown on the road. Most people cannot eat them and still have to go hungry.

The ones who actually eat the most are the mutants, because they have the ability to kill mutant animals, which is easier for them than for ordinary people.

After all, in the end times, even the superpowers may not be able to eat normal meat for a long time. Some of them are really greedy and want to have a good meal. Seeing that the price of this mutant meat is not expensive, and some ordinary people have no problem eating it, they tried it and found that except for sometimes having difficulty digesting it, there was no major problem with their body.

Therefore, even within the Yancheng base, there has always been a business of buying and selling mutant meat. And to some extent, this business is also very popular. A lot of it can be sold every day. There are even many psychics or teams who secretly kill mutants and sell them to some merchants to earn crystal cores and supplies.

In fact, everyone can think of the question of whether mutants can be eaten. How could the base not have thought about it? As early as when the mutants first appeared, they asked someone to bring back a few and had the research institute conduct tests to see if the meat of this mutant could be used to replace ordinary food. Even if its source is relatively rare, it is not difficult to obtain anything in the end times. If it can be eaten, it can also slightly alleviate the pressure on humans in terms of food. It will also help humans to be more active in killing mutants.

Unfortunately, the results of the analysis of mutant animals were not ideal. In the end, they could not determine whether it was edible or not.

Finally, for the sake of safety, the researchers at the base's research institute could only conclude that it is not recommended for people to eat the meat of this mutant animal.

However, in the past one or two months, there has never been any problem with eating mutant animals. So even if it is not confirmed that they can be eaten, the base has turned a blind eye to it and has not cared whether the survivors of the base eat mutant animals or not. They just let them do it. After all, if they are not allowed to eat, where can they find alternative food?

Now, a zombie virus suddenly broke out in the base, and it was discovered that the culprit was actually this mutant animal.

The survivors who had eaten or were still eating mutant animals, whether they were superpowers or ordinary people, began to panic.

I never thought that I would suffer such bad news just because of my own appetite. I was in a state of panic every day, not knowing whether something bad would happen to me.

**

In fact, few people in Ruan Ning's team have ever eaten the meat of mutant animals.

The most important point is that they have no shortage of supplies. Meat and other things, whether it is what Gu Yicheng stored in the space before the apocalypse or what he found in the cold storage after the apocalypse, there are abundant varieties and it is completely enough for them to eat.

Only a few people in the team, like Lin Yang, tried it once or twice because they thought it was novel to eat mutant animals. But after they found that the taste was nothing special, and even worse than an ordinary roast chicken before the end of the world, they never ate it again.

Ruan Ning had never tried the meat of mutant animals, because whenever she thought about what the mutant animals looked like before they died, she just couldn't eat them even if they had been roasted, boiled, or fried, so she had never even tasted them.

But when she first watched it, she had never seen a plot where a person ate a mutant animal and turned into a zombie. Seeing Gu Yicheng's frown, she knew that he had never experienced this in his previous life.

Otherwise, if such a situation really happened, how could he not stop Lin Yang and the others from eating these mutant animals.

Moreover, they came all the way from City S, passing through so many cities, big and small, and this was the first time they heard of such a situation.

"Alas! I feel like I'm going to die soon..." After hearing the news from the base, Lin Yang lay on the table with a look of dejection. Because he was the one among them who ate the most mutants.

Moreover, when he went out yesterday, he had eaten dishes made from mutant animals in a hotel in Yancheng Base. It was said that those dishes were the specialty of that hotel. This was what he was most worried about.

Everyone in the Dawn Team expressed their love and condolences to him. Let him relax first and don't scare himself. There are so many people in the Yancheng base who have eaten mutant animals, but not all of them have problems. It should be said that only a few of the few have problems now. This shows that the situation may not be entirely caused by eating mutant animals. It may also be because of eating a certain type or several types of mutant animals that such a result will occur. Or perhaps there are other possibilities.

After everyone's consolation, Lin Yang felt much more relieved. He thought that he shouldn't be so unlucky that he would be infected just by eating a mutant animal in this base.

The base is still investigating, and now that we have some clues, it shouldn't be long before we get more concrete results.

However, they couldn't put all their hopes on the Yancheng base. After all, the matter now involved their own teammates. It was no longer like before, although the situation could be serious or minor, but only other people were in trouble, so they could wait for news without any anxiety.

Gu Yicheng cleared out a large room on the third floor of the villa and took out the medical equipment that had been stored in the room.

Then he asked An Yi to conduct various examinations on Lin Yang and other members of the team who had eaten mutant animals.

These medical devices were obtained by Gu Yicheng when he learned that Ruan Ning's healing ability was different from that of other people, so he planned to get them for her so that she could check her body to see if there was anything wrong.

At that time, An Yi also complained about this young master Gu who suddenly became obsessed with his sister. He was different from other survivors of the apocalypse. Others were having a hard time surviving, but he was thinking about getting some medical examination equipment for his sister who was not related to him by blood.

Later, Gu Yicheng really found an opportunity and got these medical equipment from other places. However, they did not go to the hospital. There were too many zombies in the big hospital, and the equipment was relatively scattered, so it was difficult to implement. So in the end, they found these equipment in a research institute that was abandoned because of the end of the world.

It just so happened that in that research institute, all the medical equipment that An Yi mentioned was available there.

Ruan Ning did not disappoint his kindness and went up to let An Yi examine her. Then he found that except for a little malnutrition due to her picky eating, her physical condition was very good and there was no problem at all.

This is also the reason why Gu Yicheng did not allow Ruan Ning to be picky about food and forced her to finish her food every time.

However, Ruan Ning herself did not take this minor malnutrition problem seriously and soon forgot about it. As a result, every time Gu Yicheng asked her to eat something she didn't like at all, she had a hard time eating it and didn't understand why.
