Chapter 27: Infected
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Have you looked enough? Do you think I look scary now?”
Lu Xin glared at Ling Mo and the others sinisterly and yelled madly, “Ling Mo, everything is your ****ing fault! If you helped me, I wouldn’t have become like this!”
He scratched his face as he spoke. A skin with rotten meat fell down and everyone there shuddered.
“Do you see this? It is all your ****ing fault! You could’ve saved me first, but what the **** did you do?!”
“Do you think everyone’s your mother? I can’t be bothered to talk to you. I am here now. Where is Xia Na?” Ling Mo snorted coldly and asked sternly.
Lu Xin laughed crazily, “Xia Na… You want to see her? Alright! Cut off your hand first. Which hand did you use to slap me? Cut it off!”
Ling Mo couldn’t help but roll his eyes when he heard it.
This Lu Xin sure was stupid! Not to mention that he wasn’t close enough to Xia Na to cut off a hand for her first, but his words alone were a joke! This guy must’ve watched too many movies. He thought that he could do anything just because he had some capability!
But because he cared about Xia Na, Liu Yuhao was panicking. He looked at Ling Mo in horror and turned back to Lu Xin, yelling with desperation, “Lu Xin, how can you do this? If it wasn’t for Brother Ling, we would’ve all died already!”
“That’s none of my business!” Lu Xin spat a mouthful of bloody saliva. “If it wasn’t for you and Xia Na who made him join and forced us to come back to the school to find those people, it wouldn’t have turned out like this! Don’t you think that I don’t loathe you after you abandoned me there!?”
Liu Yuhao froze and lifted the butcher knife in his arm as he clenched his teeth tightly, “Can I cut mine off?!”
He was about to wave the knife but Ling Mo stopped him. Before he could react, Ling Mo already dashed towards Lu Xin.
The distance between them was merely roughly ten meters and with Ling Mo’s current speed, it only took him a breath to reach Lu Xin.
Lu Xin felt a dark shadow flinging himself towards him and a cold beam flashed in front of his eyes.
He was in the process of mutating, so his reaction speed wasn’t slow and he was swift. He tilted his head to the side in a key moment like this. But even so, he immediately felt his right shoulder was split down. He felt like a great force was pressing on his body and his knees softened, almost falling onto the ground.
Ling Mo’s knife cut into Lu Xin’s shoulder and he didn’t mean to stop at all. He followed the motion and turned the knife horizontally, slashing towards Lu Xin’s neck.
The shadow of death shrouded Lu Xin but under his instincts, he took a step back and closely dodged the fatal attack. However, the tip of the knife already slit his throat open and fresh blood splattered from the wound.
Lu Xin’s eyes became redder and redder. After becoming severely injured, he yelled and threw himself at Ling Mo.
Even though he was no longer an ordinary person, but he couldn’t compare to Ling Mo who had been in numerous death or life battles. Seeing that Lu Xin was fighting with his life, Ling Mo merely lowered his body and dashed forward and when Lu Xin came closer, he tilted his knife upwards slightly and a gush of blood mist splattered.
The sharp tip of the blade slit a long opening in Lu Xin’s stomach and Ling Mo knocked him to the ground. Lu Xin fought to stand up but Ling Mo stepped on him.
“It looks like you can’t feel pain anymore?” Ling Mo looked at him with interest and asked.
Almost all the skin on his body was rotting and falling off. Plus his scratchings and two large cuts, Lu Xin didn’t look like he was in pain at all. He obviously wasn’t a strong-willed lad and the only explanation was that he no longer felt pain.
Lu Xin clenched his teeth and glared at Ling Mo. Although he couldn’t feel the pain, he knew that he didn’t have much time left with his intestines falling out from the large cut on his stomach.
“You put Xia Na away and dare to threaten me in my face? You surely overestimated yourself!” Ling Mo snorted coldly and said.
“Oh, you think I’m stupid?” Lu Xin’s glances became weird and laughed crazily at the same time. “You really thought that I was stupid! I know I’m dead for sure and I won’t let you leave untouched. Although I couldn’t kill you, it’s worth it! Hahahaha… Didn’t you abandon me behind? I’ll let you have a taste of it and see how you would feel when the same thing happens to you! Hahaha…”
As he laughed, blood spurted out from his mouth. In addition to his disgusting face, he looked like a living madman.
However, a bad feeling filled Ling Mo’s heart. He cut Lu Xin’s neck off and ended his ear-piercing laughs before turning around to look at the dorms behind him.
Xia Na should be in one of the dorms but without knowing why, Ling Mo felt more anxious.
Liu Yuhao didn’t think that much. Seeing that Ling Mo killed Lu Xin in a few attacks, he quickly rushed over and began to search for Xia Na in the dorm crazily.
Wang Cheng frowned as he followed, searching with Liu Yuhao after glancing at Lu Xin’s body with a pale face. This guy was certainly sharp but petty-minded. He looked like he was extremely nervous about Xia Na’s situation, but he followed Liu Yuhao tightly and didn’t go any closer to the dorm’s door. Under this urgent situation, barely anyone would notice these small tricky actions.
Ling Mo took Ye Lian along the corridor and searched. But the dorms he passed by had nothing but remains of bodies. There was no signs of Xia Na.
But quickly, Liu Yuhao’s voice sounded from one of the dorms, “She’s here! Xia is in here!”
Ling Mo’s heart trembled and quickly hurried over.
He reached the door and saw that Xia Na was tied to the frame of the bed simply. The rope used to tie her up was something like a rope for hanging clothes and she lowered her head, looking fine. But connected what Lu Xin just said, Ling Mo thought that something must’ve happened to Xia Na.
“Xia Na, are you alright?”
When Liu Yuhao nervously untied Xia Na, Ling Mo saw her palm at first glance and his heart came cold.
He pulled Xia Na’s left hand up and Liu Yuhao shifted his confused glanced over. Needless to say, Wang Cheng, who stood on the side, also saw it clearly.
Everyone fell silent. Other than Ye Lian whose face was expressionless, the other three’s faces all became lifeless.
Ling Mo glanced at Xia Na’s pale face and cursed as he clenched his teeth, “Lu Xin, you ****ing bastard!”
On Xia Na’s left hand, a fresh wound could be clearly seen. After Lu Xin slit a wound on Xia Na’s left hand, he obviously used his hand which was filled with pus and blood plasma and held her hand tightly… Her palm was filled with blood stains and some small pieces of meat explained this.
Under everyone’s terrified stares, Xia Na lifted her head up slowly and her unyielding eyes were filled with despair at this moment. “I’ve been infected…”
