"Don't be afraid, I won't kill you."
Ling Mo put away his knife and said while looking at the frightened girls who were huddled together.
Ling Mo wouldn't go easy on those who dared to mess with him, but Ling Mo wouldn't kill innocent people.
These girls weren't a threat, so Ling Mo wouldn't do anything to them.
Seeing that the girls were still looking at him cautiously, Ling Mo sighed and decided not to bother with them anymore. He started to search around the room.
Xia Na and Ye Lian looked at them curiously for a while, then lost interest. The two zombies went into the bookshelf and started to search around like Ling Mo.
Soon, Ling Mo found some messy things under the simple beds. There were dirty clothes and some daily necessities. The biggest discovery was a few boxes of food and some drinking water, but these things were either expired or hard to swallow. Most of the food was divided into small portions and packed in bags. Ling Mo roughly counted, there were about 20 portions.
This should be the "portion" that Li Dan Yang was talking about, but from the amount, it seemed that these girls and the people who died outside didn't have a portion.
Exchanging supplies for a place … Was this the reason why Tang Xiao Xue and the others were so desperate to find supplies?
What kind of tricks did this Wei Jun Yan do to turn these survivors into crazy people?
Ling Mo frowned as he counted the things, and finally only picked out a few bags of chocolate beans and a few bottles of water.
Then, he looked back at the girls and said lightly, "These are all yours."
These words immediately made the girls stop sobbing, they looked at Ling Mo vigilantly, seeing that Ling Mo had already walked away and started to search elsewhere, one of the girls stared at the pile of food, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and finally couldn't help but slowly crawl over. As she safely grabbed a bag of food, she couldn't wait to start stuffing food into her mouth. The other girls couldn't help but jump over.
It seemed like being hungry was more important than being ashamed. With food in front of them, even though Ling Mo threw the old clothes to the side, they didn't even look at it.
This wasn't the first time that Ling Mo saw survivors humiliating women, but it was unavoidable since women were in a disadvantaged position.
Under the tremendous pressure of survival, almost everyone needed to find an outlet to vent their primal physical desires. Humiliating women was undoubtedly the best way to vent their emotions.
After being used as a tool for venting for a long time, of course these girls had no self-esteem.
From the search results, Li Dan Yang's group was very poor. Maybe it had something to do with their location. There were only many school buildings around, so the resources they could collect were limited.
But what surprised Ling Mo was that he found a solar-powered flashlight. This kind of flashlight that didn't need to be replaced was a good thing, so Ling Mo took it without hesitation.
There was also a police baton, but it was useless against zombies. Li Dan Yang didn't use it, so Ling Mo didn't want it either.
Seeing that he couldn't find anything good, Ling Mo cleaned up a corner and decided to stay there for the night. But after he was done, he looked around, but didn't find any trace of Ye Lian and Shana.
"Where did those two girls go?"
Ling Mo walked towards the back of the bookshelf while changing his vision. But when he changed his vision to Xia Na's, the scene in front of him shocked him.
A black furry thing was swaying in front of him, which made Ling Mo's head go numb.
Luckily the next second, Xia Na threw the thing on the ground with a knife, Ling Mo realized that it was a huge rat.
The rat was probably attracted by the smell of blood, but somehow Xia Na found it. From the blood stains on its mouth, it was not difficult to see that it should have eaten human flesh, but it was not known whether it ate the flesh of the survivors or the zombie puppets.
Ling Mo lost interest after looking at it for a while, and focused on observing the surroundings. After determining the location of Xia Na and Ye Lian, he quickly rushed over.
But at this moment, the rat suddenly twitched madly, and like a flea began to jump around, and then madly rushed toward the direction of Ye Lian.
Unfortunately, although its movement was fast, it couldn't compare to Ye Lian, who had become an advanced zombie and was known for her speed.
Ye Lian just casually lifted her foot, and with a "squeak!" sound, the rat was kicked flying, and hit the wall not far away.
After it landed, it didn't move anymore, but twitched in the same place. A large amount of blood constantly came out from its eyes and mouth, and at the same time, its body began to inflate like a balloon. From time to time, the skin was burst, and blood mixed with pus gushed out, it looked very scary.
Seeing the rat's change, Ling Mo suddenly froze for a moment, and then suddenly remembered a person.
Lu Xin, the culprit that caused Xia Na to mutate … His situation at that time was also like this, mentally crazy, and at the same time, his body was in a strange state of constant decay.
But Lu Xin was directly infected by the high purity virus of the mutated zombie, and couldn't bear it, leading to decay and death. This rat only ate the flesh of ordinary zombies, why did it also have this kind of result?
Is it because animals simply can't bear such a virus?
At this time, Ling Mo had already passed through several rows of bookshelves, and went into a storage room at the back. As soon as he entered the room, he saw the figures of Ye Lian and Xia Na. The two of them were very good at finding places, taking advantage of the time when Ling Mo was searching for items, they actually came here.
At this time, they were curiously staring at the rat. After Ling Mo entered the room, he also put his attention on the rat's body.
The inside of the rat was rapidly decaying, and it kept twitching in pain, but soon it couldn't move.
Finally, its body rotted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the speed was simply unbelievable.
If he didn't see it with his own eyes, Ling Mo also wouldn't believe that such a thing could happen. It was just a virus in the body of an ordinary zombie, but it made this mouse become like this.
No wonder he usually didn't encounter many animals, presumably many rats or birds had eaten the corpse of zombies, and then quickly decomposed.
For example, the rotten meat left by this rat, if it was eaten by its own kind, it should also suffer the same fate.
Ling Mo carefully looked for a moment, and guessed that most of it was because the animal's body was too small, and couldn't bear the intensity of the virus. If the body was a little bigger, such as humans, they could bear the virus of ordinary zombies, and then carry on the mutation.
Like Xia Na after being infected by Lu Xin, she withstood the mutated zombie virus after being diluted by Lu Xin's blood, but whether this situation was different from person to person, Ling Mo also couldn't say clearly.
Unfortunately, how big the virus needed to be to bear, for a short period of time, could not be confirmed.
At least the fact that this kind of creature couldn't bear the virus, for the current humans, is absolutely good news. Otherwise, with the huge number of rats, if they also mutated, humans should really be finished.
