Chapter 99: Little sister, such a big temper~

~8 min read 1,484 words

Liu Mu did not have anyone follow the vehicle, and no one raised any questions; if they were to ask, it was because Niu Ge was not currently in the squad, and they trusted Niu Ge's strength.

Before long, several shouts suddenly rang out from the encampment, and one could see vague figures stumbling out.

Hiss—

Liu Mu unzipped her Raincoat, then cracked her ten fingers until they popped, and the others grew excited as well.

"Listen, don't worry about me; you all proceed with your tactical assault, just don't throw any explosives at my head."

As soon as Luo Sanlin heard this, he knew she was about to stir up trouble. Just as he was about to speak up to stop her, he felt a figure flicker before his eyes; he looked again, and where had she gone?

Looking around, she had already rolled two miles away, like rocks falling down a mountain.

Everyone, including Luo Sanlin, didn't know what kind of expression to make; no coolness, no heroic words, she just went like that—wasn't it a bit... ridiculous?

"Alright, let's follow the plan, get ready!"

Luo Sanlin could only guarantee that he wouldn't mock Liu Mu for her ungraceful posture afterward; as for the others, whoever wanted to court death could go ahead.

The rolling stopped; Liu Mu had originally thought about making a cool entrance, but the conditions weren't right now, so it was hard to show off.

At the foot of the mountain was a naturally formed gully that might have originally had water flowing through it, but now that the vegetation was gone, it had turned into mud.

She dove headfirst into it, and after a long while, half her head surfaced.

Her eyelids opened and closed, revealing the snow-white sclera in the darkness, staring quietly ahead.

She had thought she would have to wait a while longer, but the interior of the Sky Viper was already in chaos, with fighting and cursing everywhere.

Like a crocodile lurking in the river silt, Liu Mu slowly approached, then stood up.

The toxins from the pus did not cause people to lose their ability to act that quickly; someone noticed something was wrong and was already on alert. Seeing the "falling rocks" suddenly tumbling down the mountain, they held their guns and came over to investigate.

However, the itching of his skin made him miserable. He held his gun in one hand while scratching incessantly with the other, cursing, "Damn it, isn't it just a rock? Why do I have to come and look? Look at your mom! It itches to death, what kind of filthy thing is in this ghost place..."

"Oh f**k!... Ah!"

The cry was short and sharp; he was first startled by the "thing" that suddenly emerged from the mud, and before he could even fire his gun, his neck felt a sharp pain, and he couldn't make another sound.

Liu Mu braced the corpse; fortunately, the person was large enough to hide her.

Someone in the distance didn't hear any movement and called out, "How is it? What is it?"

Liu Mu pinched the chin of the brother whose throat she had just slit, turned his head to make it look like he was checking, and answered in a gruff voice, "A rock, damn it!"

The person behind cursed and walked away, scratching his body, "What kind of thing is causing this allergy, that everyone is allergic? I need to go inject a serum quickly..."

Liu Mu's arm came into contact with the blood of the "throat-slit" man, and there was a slight stinging itch. "Heitao A, analyze!"

【Unnamed biological toxin, rapidly multiplying, host dead, currently decaying. Toxin can be resisted, no danger.】

"You said Parasitism? Isn't it a toxin?"

【It consumes the host through Parasitism; for the host, it is also a form of 'poisoning.' After all, you cannot distinguish it with the naked eye, leading to a cognitive error, broadly classified as poisoning.】

"Enough, enough, don't repeat data already given," Liu Mu only asked, "Will this toxin acting on the human body really not lead to Zombie transformation?"

【It really won't, you're overthinking it; see the details in the data, it was already given to you.】

Liu Mu wasn't angry at the system for snapping at her; after all, she was used to it. If they could bicker with each other one day, that would be truly satisfying.

It was true, Heitao A had recorded the Zombie Virus, and the analysis data inside was well-preserved. Liu Mu's worry was a bit redundant, but she couldn't help it; she was truly afraid of the Zombie Virus breaking out early.

"If the ground is full of Zombies, how am I supposed to get rich and level up? In any case, put the detection of this, this—ah, the Zombie Virus—in the first priority; report to me immediately upon discovery, understand?"

Heitao A ignored her, but the system interface had already circled that column in red.

The red, hard bumps on the 'throat-slit brother's' skin not only didn't expand but actually withered; it must be that this virus died along with the body, which finally put her mind at ease.

Liu Mu hadn't read many books, but she knew that places contaminated by biochemical weapons had to be disinfected with specific agents. If this thing didn't die for a while and harmed the people she brought, what would she do? So, losing face is losing face; losing face in front of the system is better than people dying.

She still held that same thought: be humble when you should be humble, and admit defeat when you should admit defeat.

After confirming the complete reaction of the toxin on this person, Liu Mu pushed the corpse to one side, moving until she reached a dark spot before pressing the body into the mud ditch.

She herself moved quickly along the edge of the light toward the tents, only to be startled halfway by a hand suddenly reaching out from the mud ditch.

"It's me, Boss, it's me," Yang Shun lay on the edge of the mud ditch, his body almost entirely covered by mud; he really had become a big mud loach.

"Are you alright?" Liu Mu was still a bit worried about this kid; after all, it was his first mission, and Yang Shun's psychological quality was usually poor, prone to getting emo at the drop of a hat.

"I'm fine, Boss, they've been poisoned, have I completed the mission?" Yang Shun's head popped out, and he wiped his face; the water he secreted himself washed his face into a human shape, and there was a rare glimmer of light in his eyes.

"Mm, you completed it very well, I'll credit you for this." Liu Mu knew that people needed affirmation most at times like this; she didn't spare any praise for Yang Shuo and told him to wait here, "After we wipe them out, you can go back with everyone else."

Having been praised, Yang Shun's eyes burst with unprecedented light, as if he had finally found his value. He nodded repeatedly, then truly shrank back into the mud, leaving only his two nostrils exposed.

Seeing him hidden so well, Liu Mu gave a thumbs up, then drew her twin blades amidst the increasing screams.

There were five tents here in total, four large and one small. Each of the large ones housed thirty people, while the small one housed only one person, and a woman at that. The commotion outside alarmed the people in the tents, and a woman in a tight plastic suit came out, holding two long guns in her hands.

"What are you all making noise for? Are you not going to let this lady finish her beauty sleep?"

After saying that, she fired a burst into the sky, and the entire encampment went quiet.

Such a fiery temper; Liu Mu liked it a bit. She approached like a ghost, the silver-white blade extending from behind, "Little sister, such a big temper, it's easy to get pimples, you know."

The woman's body shuddered, but she didn't just surrender; she appeared like a black and red snake, twisting softly, sliding and shrinking toward the ground, and escaped Liu Mu's restraint.

She raised her gun and fired, not giving Liu Mu any chance to praise her.

Liu Mu also performed an iron bridge maneuver followed by a side roll, dodging the burst, and folded her waist as if to whip herself back, charging toward the woman a few meters away without a moment's pause.

"Whoa, little sister, how about coming to work for big sister? Look at you!" Liu Mu said, already having slashed out.

"You're courting death!" Miao Hentian was also secretly annoyed; if that burst hadn't hit, this woman would have been riddled with holes even if she could pull off fancy tricks!
