The joy of victory was washed away, and the joy of being safe was gone. Everyone was frightened, and they looked around anxiously. When Jiaojiao rushed towards Chu Han, someone had stopped her, giving Chu Han time to react, but the price they had to pay was …
A phase-5 xenogeneic carried a high-energy virus. Unless it was a Homo Evolutis of the same level or higher, no one could resist the infection, and the infected person would turn into a zombie in the shortest time possible.
"Cough!" A retching sound was heard.
Everyone looked at the source of the sound, and then they were panic-stricken and helpless. Many people's eyes turned red, and they clenched their fists tightly. They wanted to beat Jiaojiao's corpse.
The person who was caught was Li Chuan.
Li Chuanjiu staggered out from the crowd, clutching his abdomen. It was bleeding profusely, and there was a clear black vein spreading across his skin. Even the skin around the claw marks had turned as pale as a zombie's.
The virus spread very fast, much faster than being bitten by a zombie. Li Chuan was not a Homo Evolutis, he was not even a phase-1 evolutionary. Many soldiers who trained with him said that he had the potential to become an Enhancer, and they even guessed what kind of ability he would awaken. Chu Han even asked the meltdown system about the probability of Li Chuan's awakening, but the data he got was not high. Li Chuan needed to awaken when the research institute produced the awakening potion.
However, he was caught by a phase-5 xenogeneic, and he had to buy time for Chu Han to react before Chu Han's research institute could start.
It was too late, everything was too late!
"Puff!" Li Chuan spat out a mouthful of black blood, and his knees went soft. He was about to fall to the ground.
'Swish! '
Chu Han quickly moved forward to support him. At that moment, Chu Han's brain stopped thinking, and all his senses stopped working. His arms that were holding Li Chuan were trembling, and he looked at Li Chuan's eyes, but he could not say a word.
Li Chuan had been following him since the battle of Ghost City. He was one of his first subordinates. He had killed countless zombies, gone through countless training, and even survived the most dangerous battle. The number of low-level zombies that died in his hands was innumerable. It was enough for him to be promoted to lieutenant.
He was the most outstanding soldier in the Wolf Fang Squad, the most outstanding attacker in the 11th Squad, and the only non-Neo-human among the 20 squads. His future was limitless!
In fact, he was Chu Han's favorite joke, and he was the companion of all the members of the Wolf Fang Regiment …
However, he was currently in the midst of a zombie transformation!
Everyone on the battlefield fell silent. Their eyes were filled with complicated emotions. They were trembling with anger, and their eyes were bloodshot. They were so sorrowful that they did not dare to look at Li Chuan's reanimated skin. They could not accept such a situation.
It was too sudden, too stifling!
"Wang Cai!
Wang Cai! "Chu Han was panicking, so he quickly communicated with Wang Cai in his mind," Is there any way to save him? "
Wang Cai shook its head in a place where Chu Han could not see, "I'm sorry, Chu Han, there's nothing I can do."
"Even the Meltdown Fragments can't do it?
I can lock him up first, and then I'll look for other Meltdown Fragments. I can even delay it for a few years! "
Chu Han began to think of countless methods in his mind. He even found all the locations of the monoliths in his previous life. He started to calculate the approximate location of those moving monoliths. Even if it was in the southern hemisphere, he had to think of a way to get there. The only problem was whether he had enough time or not.
Wang Cai was silent for a second, and then it said with a regretful tone, "I'm sorry, Chu Han. Zombification is irreversible. Your mother could be saved because she was not scratched by nails or teeth. She was not directly infected. There is a big difference between the two."
Chu Han was stunned. It was as if the whole world was silent, and time seemed to have stopped.
There was no way to save Li Chuan …
"Sir."
Li Chuan's voice started to tremble. He realized that he had lost his sight, and he could only sense that Chu Han was very close to him.
"Yes, I'm here."
Chu Han tried his best to make his voice sound calm. He was trying his best to suppress the urge to destroy the world.
Li Chuan opened his mouth, as if he wanted to smile. However, his smile didn't make anyone smile. Li Chuan said with a trembling voice, "I have a request."
Everyone raised their heads, and hundreds of eyes stared at Li Chuan without blinking. They wanted to hear his last wish. No matter what it was, they would fulfill it.
Chu Han's heart was beating fast, and he said in a low voice, "Yes."
"Oh!
Thank you, sir. "
Li Chuan's eyes started to bleed, and his eyes were bloodshot. However, at that moment, he suddenly clenched his fists and shouted with all his strength, "Give me a bullet!"
Boom!
Everyone was shocked, and hundreds of pairs of eyes were filled with shock. Many people were so shocked that their bodies were trembling. Li Chuan's request was a bullet?
Bang!
Chu Han couldn't hold it in any longer, and he punched the ground hard, causing a cloud of dust to rise.
Over a hundred members of the Wolf Fang Battle Group gripped their weapons tightly and gritted their teeth. They forcefully held back the tears that were gushing out of their eyes.
Chu Han lowered his head, and didn't look at anyone. His voice was trembling as he squeezed out, "Yes."
Li Chuan couldn't be saved.
The entire battlefield was silent, and only the sound of breathing could be heard. Many people ran to the corners of the battlefield, and buried their heads in the ground. Their shoulders were shaking, and it was clear that they were in extreme pain. They couldn't hold it in anymore, and could only vent it in this way.
Chu Han stood up, and he reached out a trembling hand. He suppressed his fear and said, "Chu Xia."
Chu Xia, who was at the back, quickly stepped forward. Her face was full of tears, but she knew the reason why Chu Han called her. Chu Han had given her a small handgun to protect herself, and she had been in the rear during the battle, so she didn't use it.
She handed over the handgun, and retreated back into the crowd. She lowered her head, and her shoulders were trembling, and her tears kept flowing.
Li Chuan also heard the movements around him. He was lying on the ground, and his body was trembling non-stop. Black blood kept flowing out of his mouth, but he was smiling happily. Even if he had to die, he wanted to die in the hands of his superior. He couldn't accept that he, a soldier of the Wolf Fang Regiment, had become a zombie.
The battlefield was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard. Li Chuan's voice sounded intermittently, and everyone could hear it. It was powerful and soul-stirring.
"My name is Li Chuan, and my rank is Sergeant. My superior is Chu Han, and I am the leader of the eleventh squad of the Wolf Fang Regiment. I am a soldier of the Wolf Fang Regiment!
I am loyal to the Wolf Fang Regiment, and I will die as the soul of the Wolf Fang Regiment! "
Everyone stood up straight, and all of them looked at Li Chuan, and gave him a standard military salute.
Bang!
