From Zero to Hero in the Doomsday - Chapter 877
Chapter 877 Colleen’s Ability
It was drizzling in the sky, but the members of the death squad were all sitting on the roadside dejectedly. They looked at the corpses of more than a dozen of their companions and almost all of their faces were filled with tears. In just half a day, half of them had died. Not only had their self-confidence been severely damaged, but they had also realized the cruelty of the apocalypse.
“When I was in Orange Town, I found out that I had a special ability …”
Colleen sat in a bedroom with a complicated expression and whispered, “At that time, Li Donghai let his daughter out to bite us. All I wanted was for her to get lost. Who knew that the little living corpse had really retreated? Later, I secretly tried a few more times. I didn’t expect the little living corpse to really listen to me!”
Who would have thought that Li Tingyu would suddenly shout dejectedly, “So it was you who secretly controlled the little living corpse. I really thought that I had successfully communicated with her. No wonder the little living corpse lost control after you were taken away by Li Donghai, causing me to think that my abilities have improved greatly!”
“I thought you were lying to him, but I didn’t want you to treat me like a monster, so I could only secretly cooperate with you to control it …”
Colleen grabbed her hand pitifully and looked at Chen Guangda. “It’s not that I didn’t want to help when I was in the Hell Crack. It’s just that there were too many of them. I can’t control them at all. Furthermore, I can’t control the big Poison Lizard King. As long as I try to control it, my head will immediately hurt like a click!”
“How many can you control at a time …”
Chen Guangda didn’t need Li Tingyu’s translator to speak. They had already found two translator headphones from the airport. Colleen held onto the headphones and paused for a moment before saying, “I’ve just risked my life. Three of them should be my maximum limit. Furthermore, I don’t have any strength left. It’s as if you said I was squeezed dry!”
“Apart from your abilities, is there anything wrong with you …”
Chen Guangda carefully looked into her eyes. Colleen shook her head after thinking for a while. Chen Guangda stood up and said, “Your ability is very helpful to us. I’ll watch you perform in the future. However, you should rest well now. No matter how late you sleep, we will wait for you. You are our heroine!”
“En!”
Colleen nodded happily. The knot in her heart seemed to have finally been removed. She crawled onto the bed obediently and prepared to rest. Chen Guangda personally covered her up before bringing Li Tingyu outside the room. However, Li Tingyu whispered, “Is she a mutant?”
“Forget it!”
Chen Guangda lit up a cigarette and walked to the side. She frowned and said, “The gray corpse insect that Jin Maolin ate definitely isn’t the same as Big Eyed Sister’s. Otherwise, Big Eyed Sister would have already developed a special ability. Moreover, she has only just mutated. I’m worried that she will have some sequelae. Chen Quan’s personality has become extremely tyrannical now. If she loses control, she will most likely attack her own people!”
“No! I think they ate the same kind of Black Corpse Bug, but Sister Fei also hid the truth from you …”
Li Tingyu gently leaned against the wall, causing Chen Guangda to be stunned. She then said, “One night, I slept with Sister Fei. Because we drank a lot of wine, she fell asleep just after I took a shower. She was still whispering in her sleep. She said that I wouldn’t use your strength, so don’t you dare to turn me into a monster!”
“There really is such a thing …”
Chen Guangda looked at her seriously. Li Tingyu nodded and said, “You know Sister Fei’s character. After becoming your little wife, she will become even stronger. She won’t easily tell others many things about her heart, so I feel that the Gray Corpse Bug wants to control her too. However, you are a lesson to her. She knows the price of compromising with the Gray Corpse Bug!”
“It’s really possible for you to say that. Big Eyed Sister is a stubborn donkey. There are some things that she won’t even tell me …”
Chen Guangda sighed in disappointment. All of his women had distinct personalities, and almost none of them were fuel-efficient lamps. However, Li Tingyu continued, “That’s why I feel that Sister Fei didn’t discover her ability because she was afraid of being controlled by the Gray Corpse Bug. However, Jin Maolin is different. She didn’t know that the power of the Gray Corpse Bug was a double-edged sword, so she dared to borrow the power of the Gray Corpse Bug without restraint!”
“If that’s the case, she can’t be considered a mutant …”
Chen Guangda nodded thoughtfully, while Li Tingyu also said, “Yes!” “She’s not the same as Chen Quan and the others. Her abilities should all come from the gray corpse worm. Furthermore, I think that each color of the mutated corpse worm may represent a special ability. The green corpse worm can turn people into Drawing Skin Ghost, the gray corpse worm can control the living corpse, and your black corpse worm should also have a special ability!”
“What kind of ability do I have? How many times have I used it to fight for my life? Other than giving me some stimulants, it’s useless …”
Chen Guangda shook his head in disdain. He felt that he was eating the trashiest corpse worm. However, Li Tingyu mocked, “No!” “It also has the ability to pick up girls. Everyone who eats corpse worms will be close to you. Sister Fei said that she has fallen in love with you for no reason ever since she ate the gray corpse worm. And now, Jin Maolin is too. The look in her eyes is extremely sad. She forcefully broke it straight from the corner!”
“Haha ~ I guess this guy used to be a duck, a male prostitute among corpse worms …”
Chen Guangda’s belly darkened and he followed Li Tingyu to the next room. At this time, it was already raining heavily outside, but everyone was still digging holes for the corpses in the heavy rain. Chen Guangda could only shout, “Boy Shui! Let the brothers hurry into the house to shelter from the rain. It would be bad if they caught a cold and got sick!”
“Sigh ~”
Boy Shui heavily sighed. He could only throw down his shovel and lead everyone into the room. As soon as he entered the room, he saw the corpse man in the corner. However, even though the corpse man was tied up like a zongzi, Old Zhao, who was in charge of guarding, was still very nervous. He raised his pistol high and didn’t dare to relax for a moment.
“Ask him about the expeditionary army and tell him that as long as he gives an honest explanation, we will let him leave …”
Chen Guangda took out a cigarette and handed it to the crowd. Li Tingyu nodded and squatted in front of the golden-haired corpse. The golden-haired corpse seemed to know that he was powerless to resist. He sat motionlessly in the corner with his head lowered. However, Li Tingyu cut the ropes on its body and placed the paper and pen in front of it to chat with it.
“How did these freaks come into being? Are they considered human or corpses?”
Boy Shui and the others stared suspiciously at the corpse man. Chen Guangda said, “Thinking living corpses are also considered living corpses. They are all products of the failure of the serum injection. Because the corpse poison will upgrade itself, once the time passes, the serum will no longer be effective. Instead, it will create corpses that are neither human nor ghost!”
“What? Isn’t this too scary? The corpse poison can still level up …”
The few people who understood Chinese all opened their mouths wide. There was even a look of despair on his face. However, Chen Guangda said, “That’s why we need to find the source of the corpse poison. Only by understanding its origin and whereabouts can we effectively cure it. However, the appearance of these corpses tells us that the base is not far from here. These corpses should be soldiers guarding the base!”
“I’ve asked …”
Not long after, Li Tingyu stood up with a pen and paper in her hand and said coldly, “Indeed, they ambushed the expeditionary army. However, the expeditionary army was not tricked by them. The moment they discovered that the female corpses they sent out immediately fired their guns, so they did not complete the encirclement in a hurry. They only killed two people and let them escape!”
“That’s great! No wonder it’s my corpse collector …”
Chen Guangda shouted excitedly. He didn’t expect that the expeditionary army would be able to rush out after being ambushed. However, Li Tingyu also said, “Don’t be happy too early. This guy also told me one thing. He said that the Poisonous Lizard King is an experimental subject that ran out of the base, so it will definitely be able to enter if it can come out!”
“F*ck …”
The expressions of Chen Guangda and the others all changed. No one knew better than them how powerful the Poisonous Lizard King was. The monster was not only individually strong, its Poisonous Lizard army was also overwhelming. However, Li Tingyu frowned and said, “That fellow said that the Poisonous Lizard King has been wandering in the crack, as if he was guarding something. I suspect that there is a Devil’s Stone in the base, or even bigger!”
“Probably not. If there was a bigger Abyss Devil’s Stone, the Americans wouldn’t be unaware of it. I’m afraid that something else is attracting it …”
Chen Guangda shook his head with a complicated expression. Then, he walked in front of the golden-haired corpse man. This fellow actually made a pitiful expression and begged him with his mouth open. Chen Guangda smiled and asked in English, “Do you believe in God? Do you want God to forgive you?”
“Wuwu ~”
The golden-haired corpse man hurriedly nodded his head and clasped his hands together to pray to the sky. However, Chen Guangda directly took out his pistol and sneered, “Then I’ll send you to see God. Ask him properly if he is willing to forgive you, you bastard!”
“Bang ~”
Chen Guangda shot the golden-haired corpse man in the head and spat heavily. He then turned around and walked in front of the dejected death squad. He patted a few of them on the shoulder and said, “Boy Shui!” Help me tell them that if I don’t force anyone who wants to go back, they can leave tomorrow morning. This journey is too dangerous for them! ”
“We’re not going back. Everyone is still waiting for our good news. We’re going back now and even our dead brothers are sorry. Even if we crawl, we still have to crawl to the base …”
A few men immediately shouted loudly. After Boy Shui finished translating their words, the rest of them also shouted loudly. Their impassioned expressions swept away the previous gloom. Chen Guangda hugged the two men’s shoulders with gratification and said, “Alright! Then we’ll do well. I will definitely bring you back alive!”
“Let’s go! Let’s bury the brothers’ corpses first. We’ll be another hero after sleeping for a while …”
Boy Shui bravely led the crowd out again. Not only was it dark outside, the rain had lessened considerably. Chen Guang waved his hand to Old Zhao to hurry up and cook. However, Boy Shui rushed back and shouted, “There’s still a corpse outside. We’re missing a corpse!”
“Motherf*cker! Hurry up and take the gun out to search. We definitely can’t let that bastard escape …”
