A cute, timid mushroom mistakenly takes the zombie king for her boyfriend and sticks close to him.

Despite all the pity, now is not the time to dwell on those things. Luo Qingxue's main goal is to avenge her teacher.

The man didn't say much to them, gave them their instructions, and left in a hurry. The group of people were in a rush and seemed very busy, but no one knew what they were busy with. They were just a bunch of troublemakers.

After they left, Mr. Zombie couldn't stand the environment at all. Even the zombies under his command had to be cleaned up and their faces tidied up before they could linger in front of him.

These humans were all covered in blood, and there were so many mutated and deformed creatures that Meng Xiaoyou and the others didn't even have to lift a finger. Mr. Zombie expressionlessly flooded the entire basement with water and cleaned it three times, inside and out. On the fourth time, Luo Qingxue broke down: "Boss, please stop your supernatural powers. We came here to see Dr. Rong, not to be cleaners."

Even the cleaners weren't as diligent as him. Who could be more diligent than him, you living father? He even washed the eyeballs out of deformed people. Those who were dissected were even more miserable, their internal organs were washed until they turned white.

Pei Sinian seemed to only then remember the purpose of his visit, and reluctantly accepted, pointing at Luo Qingxue: "Well, you go and pick out some work."

"Huh? Me?" Luo Qingxue pointed to herself.

Mr. Zombie said coldly, "Or should it be me?"

It's even less likely that the mushrooms were grown by him.

Luo Qingxue: "..."

What a pair of scoundrels! They're just taking advantage of her because she doesn't have a boyfriend!

Luo Qingxue cursed and randomly picked someone with all their limbs intact. Just as she was about to drag the person up, the person suddenly regained consciousness, grabbed Luo Qingxue's wrist, and his lips trembled as he said, "Save...my...superpower...enhancement..."

"What?" Luo Qingxue was startled, then said impatiently, "Don't worry, you won't die. Today's experiment won't be able to be done."

She assumed the test subject was scared and said a few words rather impatiently.

The man trembled, gripping her hand tightly, refusing to let go. "The conspiracy... failed..."

He spoke haltingly, but Pei Sinian, with his keen hearing, turned his gaze mercifully to the human test subject and said calmly, "Heal him."

Luo Qingxue was not a kind person to begin with, and she would never save people immediately if something happened. It was only after Pei Sinian reminded her that she reluctantly used her supernatural ability.

Although he wasn't fully cured, at least he was able to speak clearly.

His chest heaved violently, his eyes were cloudy, and his voice was hoarse: "A scam... the drug to enhance superpowers was a failed product. After a temporary boost to superpowers... it will cause side effects. He's gone mad, they've all gone mad."

"We...we were captured. They told us that the ability-enhancing drugs were...failed products used for enhancement, with side effects, unusable, so they were used to silence the base...The base demanded the research institute produce results, and this is what they gave us..."

"What side effects?" Luo Qingxue's heart sank.

The man closed his eyes briefly: "The overload of superpowers caused the energy core to shatter, and there's no way to reverse the situation."

After the apocalypse, both zombies and human superhumans developed energy storage devices in their brains; for humans, these were energy cores, and for zombies, they were crystal cores.

Someone once had their energy core shattered, and fragments embedded in their brain, causing immediate brain death.

"I am an ordinary person, so I escaped this calamity. After taking the power-enhancing drug, I did not live a single day."

Meng Xiaoyou quickly called Zhou Ziming.

Zhou Ziming was arguing with the zombies, trying to persuade them with reason, when his phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Meng Xiaoyou. Before he could do anything, the female zombie next to him immediately snatched the phone and pressed the answer button.

"what happened?"

The voices of the two people speaking to each other were completely different.

Zhou Ziming discovered that every living being habitually speaks in a high-pitched voice in front of Meng Xiaoyou.

This... this can't be sprayed. When he first saw Meng Xiaoyou, he also wanted to use a high-pitched voice.

Meng Xiaoyou was surprised to hear a female zombie answer the phone. She paused for a moment, then quickly asked, "Is Zhou Ziming with you?"

The female zombie punched Zhou Ziming, saying, "My darling is talking to you, answer me!"

Zhou Ziming staggered and squatted down in pain: "Yes, what's wrong, ancestor?"

"There's something wrong with the drugs you humans are taking. Don't let them use their powers yet, or people will die."

Zhou Ziming was startled and quickly scanned his surroundings. Two groups of creatures were locked in a fierce battle, with flames flying everywhere and supernatural abilities scattering all around. Sparks flew, dust billowed, and water splashed. One of the zombies next to him had its few remaining hairs burned off by a fire ability, and it immediately lunged forward, baring its teeth and claws: "Human, I'll fight you to the death!"

Then, it grabbed the human's hair and tore it apart violently!

Humans were not to be outdone; they spat out sparks that burned off the zombies' nose hairs.

Zhou Ziming: "..."

He closed his eyes, choosing not to look, and took a deep breath: "It's too late. What needed to be used has already been used."

Meng Xiaoyou: "Let's call a truce."

"The problem is, they don't listen to me at all."

Many prominent human figures participated in this battle. Apart from Zhou Ziming, who had no special abilities, most of the powerful humans used drugs to enhance their abilities. Fortunately, the drugs were limited, and ordinary level three or four ability users did not receive any.

Zhou Ziming didn't know where Meng Xiaoyou got the information, but he knew Meng Xiaoyou's character and that she wouldn't lie.

But there was nothing he could do.

We can't just tie up all those people who are taking the medication...

绑？

Zhou Ziming immediately grabbed the female zombie's hand, his eyes filled with hope: "How many humans can you control?"

The female zombie glanced down at his restless claws, swatted them away, and pulled him aside to avoid a burst of supernatural attacks before saying, "I'm currently at level seven, and I can control ten of the same level. I can control about a hundred of those below me."

"There aren't many seventh-tier humans, only three. The rest are under my command."

The female zombie raised an eyebrow, making her features more expressive.

"Man, watch your tone. Why should I be bossed around by you?"

Zhou Ziming gritted his teeth and pleaded, "Just consider it... not for me, but for your little mushroom. How can you bear to let her hopes be dashed?"

Ji Luolan said thoughtfully, "If that's what you mean, it's not impossible. Man, you go ahead, I'll help you with this."

For some reason, Zhou Ziming misheard it as: "Men, go and choose, and I'll pay for it if you pick one."

He shook his head and hurried off to attend to his business.

First, he pointed at a lieutenant he didn't like, "That guy's called Sun Yingbo, he's a level six superpowered individual, you take him in first."

Sun Yingbo keenly sensed the danger. He turned his head and saw that the good-for-nothing was not only alive, but was standing behind the zombie, pointing at him.

Before he could think any further, his whole body suddenly stiffened, all his supernatural abilities vanished, his limbs became unresponsive, and he collapsed to the ground, his buttocks sticking out, his face pressed against the ground in a contorted position, glaring angrily at Zhou Ziming, gritting his teeth: "Useless trash...you betrayed me..."
