Doomsday Wonderland - Chapter 283

Chapter 283: Way Back Home 2

“Get the cat doctor to talk to me!”

As this sentence shot out of Lin Sanjiu’s mouth, she smashed a wooden stick-like Special Item into pieces with her extraordinarily powerful punch. While the owner of that [Poor Skill Distribution Magic Wand] was shocked by that blow, Lin Sanjiu delivered a sidekick to her opponent’s abdomen, taking a few lives away from that man. The skinny man let out a shriek as he was flung far away.

“Dr. Hu,” Lin Sanjiu ducked and dodged a streak of dust heading her way. Then, she asked calmly, “What is the condition of my physical body right now?”

The cat’s usually sweet, mew-like tone, was currently serious yet excited, “Things are looking very promising! As expected, the invasive cells in your body are still alive! I managed to reactivate them just a moment ago. Just as that person in your head described, they started invading your body once they got reactivated…”

Before Lin Sanjiu could reply with a “really?”, she heard the nurse—with only half a body—urging the posthumans nearby to attack Lin Sanjiu’s legs. Lin Sanjiu rushed over almost instinctively and delivered a spinning kick. She kicked the blood-covered half body of the nurse directly into a wall. Splat. A splatter of black blood spread across the wall as the fleshy remnants slowly slid down the wall.

“Right now, their attacks aren’t that stable. They are attacking intermittently. I am currently creating a pseudo-electrophysiology environment in your body. Hopefully, this will stimulate and increase their activity level… Huh? What is this reaction? This isn’t right—”

The cat doctor suddenly raised his voice, as if his attention was drawn by a sudden, unexpected situation. Thereafter, the communicator was silent.

“What’s wrong?” Lin Sanjiu was so anxious that she asked that question repetitively. However, she received no answer from the other side. Her heart was in her throat, she wished so hard that she could go back and check out the situation for herself. Yet, she was still hindered by these people…

With her bad mood, she showed even less restraint with her attacks. Initially, Lin Sanjiu acted with the consideration that “the others are just following the rules”. However, with the waves after waves of attack, she already lost her temper. Lin Sanjiu leaped up into the air and her body gradually faded into oblivion.

This wasn’t Lin Sanjiu’s new ability. What the other posthumans were seeing was just the afterimages that Lin Sanjiu created when she moved at her maximum speed. While her audience gawked, the first afterimage disappeared like a burst bubble. At the same time, screams rang out within the group of pursuers.

There was a sudden spurt of blood in the air, like a fountain. Just a moment ago, Lin Sanjiu’s second afterimage paused for a moment before rushing down to the ground. Lin Sanjiu had already returned to her original position before her second afterimage could even disappear.

This time, she was holding a person’s leg in her hand.

When the others saw Patient Zero throwing the leg in her hand to the ground and slowly mashing that leg into a fleshy pulp, they all turned pale.

“How bothersome,” the female Patient Zero said with a lowered voice as she stood in the main lobby.

“If you think you can challenge my speed, you can go ahead and stay right here.” Lin Sanjiu lowered the tone of her voice, making herself sound more threatening and malicious, “For your information, I don’t care much about getting your lives. I will just tear off each of your limbs… I wonder how long you guys with a double life reduction rate would survive without all four limbs…”

The main lobby of the hospital became silent in an instant. A few Special Items which were flying in mid-air immediately stopped under their owners’ control.

Everyone exchanged glances but no one moved for a short time. The nurse who was now just a pile of flesh muttered with a hoarse voice, “People who stay behind, attack—”

Lin Sanjiu flew forward and stomped on the woman’s face, smashing it into the tiled floor. As broken tiles and dust flew everywhere, Lin Sanjiu glared coldly at her pursuers and spat, “Get lost.”

The very next second, her pursuers scrambled in a panic, escaping with any means they had, as if they were rabbits that had been targeted by a gigantic beast. They quickly disappeared from her sight.

Lin Sanjiu felt a sense of relief.

She waited for a few seconds and after she was sure that the main lobby was empty, she wasted no time rushing back to Zone A on the second floor. When she pushed open the door to room A218, a flat black shadow suddenly flew toward her. Lin Sanjiu shifted her body to one side and evaded an almanac page. She quickly shouted, “It’s me!” Reno and Rena, who had been readying themselves for battle, quickly let out long sighs of relief.

“How is it going?” Lin Sanjiu asked hurriedly as she sprinted to her body.

Without any words from the others, Lin Sanjiu was stunned when she saw her own body.

“I could never anticipate this situation in a million years,” the bicolor cat sighed. He hit the machine heavily with his paw and continued dejectedly, “The cells are too aggressive. Once I created that pseudo-environment, their activity level exploded…”

The original appearance of the person lying on the surgery table had changed completely.

The body’s honey-colored skin was now somewhat translucent and even had a tinge of green. That color reminded Lin Sanjiu of dolphins. On top of that, Lin Sanjiu’s physical body was visibly growing taller. In one minute, her height had grown from 1.7m to 1.8m. Lin Sanjiu almost couldn’t recognize herself if not for the fact that her facial features were still the same.

“After these invasive cells merged with your original cells, they multiplied very quickly. Right now, those invasive cells have already taken over 50% of your body…”

Before the cat doctor finished his sentence, Mrs. Manas suddenly bellowed in Lin Sanjiu’s mind, “What are you waiting for? Quick, go back to your body. Those cells possess Higher Consciousness, there is no way any doctor can control them, you’re the only one who can do it!”

“But, how am I supposed to go back—” Lin Sanjiu barely uttered those words. Suddenly, with a single thought, she leaned toward her own physical body as if she had practiced it many times before.

Her higher consciousness body which had accompanied her through multiple battles, which had annihilated countless enemies, which was as hard as a diamond… The moment it touched her physical body, her higher consciousness body dissipated into small gentle dots of light, as if it was snow melting with the arrival of a spring breeze. The light disappeared into every inch of her physical body, from her skin, muscles, and flesh. With every breath, the light gradually faded from the air.

The siblings and the cat doctor froze and watched in a daze as the physical body absorbed the dots of lights which filled the room. After some time, there wasn’t a single trace of Lin Sanjiu’s higher consciousness body in the room. After the spots of lights fully disappeared, the body on the surgery table stopped growing. The greenish tinge had also dimmed. The cat doctor stared at Lin Sanjiu’s body very closely. He made his breathing lighter as if he was afraid that he would affect the battle within the woman’s body.

“Is it succ-successful?” Reno choked, he looked at his sister and then at the cat. “When she wakes up, who will she be?”

After he said that, the person on the surgery table suddenly opened her eyes.
