Chapter 143: Chapter 138: Original Strain Infector
"..."
Falling from this height, no matter how physically fit one was, death was certain.
Xu Woshi, undoubtedly, was already dead.
Watching Xu Woshi growing increasingly distant, and seeing the blood-red traces on the ground where she landed, Xiao Yi, though reluctant to believe it... the fact that Xu Woshi was dead was deeply engraved in his consciousness.
At this moment, all Xiao Yi could do was watch his outstretched hand wavering weakly in the air.
He hadn’t been able to catch up, hadn’t been able to save Xu Woshi.
"..." Xu Yingguang was also stunned at this moment; his worst fears had ultimately materialized.
Xu Yingguang felt as if every bit of flesh on his body had been gnawed clean; the intense pain in his head made the world before his eyes flicker dark and light.
Xu Yingguang felt weak; he almost fell to the ground but fortunately, someone quickly supported him and helped him to a chair.
Xu Yingguang just sat there, staring blankly at the live feed, motionless. It was as if his time had stopped at this moment.
And everyone else watching this scene fell silent.
"..." Xiao Yi was silent for a moment before standing up and walking toward the Brigadier General.
Everything had happened too fast; the soldier hadn’t even had time to react, but now he saw Xiao Yi walking towards the Brigadier General and immediately drew his gun to try to stop Xiao Yi.
But then! He saw Xiao Yi’s eyes.
Just a single glance at Xiao Yi’s expression, and this well-trained, iron-willed soldier felt immense fear!
His hands, holding the gun, couldn’t stop trembling! His fingers no longer had the strength or courage to pull the trigger.
By then, the Brigadier General had already shaken off Lair, kicking him several meters away.
Lair was no match for the Brigadier General, so he had only delayed him for two seconds before he was kicked away.
The Brigadier General also saw Xiao Yi approaching, and he felt his heartbeat halt for an instant.
"Don’t come near... don’t come near!!!"
The Brigadier General hastily drew his gun and fired several shots!
But, the bullets hitting Xiao Yi did no damage whatsoever, not even causing a ripple!
The Brigadier General then remembered, he was facing an entity of a different kind!
At that moment, Xiao Yi had already reached the Brigadier General! And for the Brigadier General, his only retreat was the edge of the building; he had nowhere to go!
Not using a gun, but merely swinging a fist at the Brigadier General.
But that punch, at the moment it was thrown, even the air seemed to scream in pain!
Then, the fist violently struck the Brigadier General in the face, pressing him against the ground!
The massive impact forced the Brigadier General’s body to smash heavily on the ground, then bounce back up!
"......!"
The Brigadier General’s mouth was wide open, but he couldn’t make a sound.
The intense pain was so severe that he couldn’t even scream.
The Brigadier General’s face was sunken in, and who knows how many bones throughout his body were broken.
But, more than the pain, the Brigadier General was even more terrified of the Xiao Yi before his very eyes!
He immediately snapped back to his senses, enduring the pain as he dragged his shattered body, crawling awkwardly on the ground, just to put a little more distance between himself and Xiao Yi.
Meanwhile, the Brigadier General also shouted at the soldier, "Save...Save me!"
But the soldier just stared blankly at the Brigadier General. He wouldn’t dare to save him!
"Useless trash." The Brigadier General could only try to save himself, and at this moment, he saw a box containing the virus strain not far from him.
The Brigadier General hurriedly crawled toward the box, took out the virus strain, and attempted to threaten Xiao Yi once more.
"Don’t...don’t move! Otherwise, I will destroy this virus strain!"
Xiao Yi’s response was very calm as he coldly replied,
"Do whatever you want, I no longer care about this mission. After all, you... are beyond saving."
"...!"
The Brigadier General was startled by Xiao Yi’s indifference—after all, it was an entire city at stake! And he too would die here! Had this man lost all reason?
Although the Brigadier General had been entangled by Lair, he was aware of what had happened just now.
The girl’s death seemed to have completely enraged the man in front of him.
He undoubtedly wanted the Brigadier General’s life!
The Brigadier General once again racked his brains, trying to think of a way to survive.
Soon, the Brigadier General remembered something and hurriedly said,
"You may not yet know why our military values the virus strain so much."
"So what?" Xiao Yi didn’t care.
The Brigadier General continued hastily, "This virus, we call it the Hive Virus! It possesses the traits of hive mentality! A superior can control the inferiors through consciousness! In other words, it can control mutants!"
"What... what did you say?" Upon hearing this, Lair was stunned and quickly understood many things.
The Brigadier General added, "We discovered this virus when we were investigating a missing archaeological team. At that time, we found the original strain of the virus! Through research on the original strain, we created a new virus! Moreover, just by being near the original strain, one can use strong consciousness to control the nearby mutants to obey one’s commands! However, doing so ultimately has its limitations in range and duration."
Upon hearing the Brigadier General’s words, both the soldier and Lair instantly understood what the abnormal situation had been about.
Lair also figured out why the mutants dispersed after the soldier drove the vehicle away, which allowed Lair to arrive on time.
Then, the Brigadier General opened the vial containing the virus strain and held it to his mouth.
"Luckily, there is one method that allows direct commanding of all mutants regardless of time and range, which is by becoming an infected carrier of the original strain! Don’t think I’m lying! I’m not drinking it now only because I don’t want to risk being hunted and dissected for research! But such a risk is nothing compared to death! Once I become an infected carrier, every mutant in the city will be under my command! So, you better think carefully about this!"
Hearing this, Lair broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly said to Xiao Yi, "Hey! Calm down a bit! Don’t rush into anything!"
"..." Xiao Yi fell silent.
At that moment, Xiao Yi really wanted to pull out a gun and shoot the Brigadier General’s hand to prevent him... but he did not possess Xu Woshi’s ability and was uncertain.
And Xu Woshi, she too had already...
Seeing Xiao Yi hesitate, the Brigadier General also breathed a sigh of relief, feeling his threat had worked.
However, just at that moment! A gunshot rang out!
Someone had fired a gun!
But, it was not Xiao Yi who fired; the gunshot came from behind him.
Xiao Yi turned his head to look, and then, seeing the person who fired the gun, he was taken aback.
The person who fired... was Xu Woshi.
