Doomsday: Humanity shrinks 100 times

Chapter 109 I caught you

Chapter 109 I caught you
This surprise was really unexpected, and everyone finally had a general understanding of Xu Lele's special abilities.

It seems that her special ability is not wound healing, but something like cell regeneration.

Some human tissues have the ability to regenerate, such as nails and hair. This is mainly because the cells of these tissues have the ability to divide and proliferate, and can continuously produce new cells, thereby promoting hair growth.

The epidermis of the skin also has some regenerative ability. When the skin is scratched, platelets will stop bleeding first, and then white blood cells will be responsible for dealing with inflammation. On this basis, basal cells will begin to proliferate slowly, and finally complete epidermal regeneration after a series of transformations.

This is a rather complicated process.

Of course, the regenerative capacity of human tissue is limited. It is impossible to reattach severed limbs, let alone reattach internal bones, blood vessels and other tissues.

Therefore, Xu Lele's supernatural ability once again exceeded everyone's cognition.

And her importance is also rising sharply.

However, the regenerated limbs are still a little different. I feel a little powerless at the moment. Perhaps it takes some time for the muscles to adapt.

Lu Yuning felt extremely weak at this moment, and most importantly, she was hungry, very hungry.

At this time, everyone was beginning to feel ashamed when they saw Lu Yuning had already finished his fifth bowl of walnut porridge.

And seeing that he was still hungry and seemed to want to eat a few more bowls, Zhang Qian quickly made another pot.

After finishing the tenth bowl, Lu Yuning finally stopped feeling hungry and started drinking water like crazy.

The sequelae of reattaching a severed limb are quite serious. It seems that the energy for regeneration of the severed limb still comes from the body itself.

In other words, this ability has a limit, and what is consumed is the injured person's own vitality.

But in this situation now, Lu Yuning no longer cares. For him, keeping his leg is better than anything else. It is worth it even if it costs him more than ten years of life.

Xu Lele fell into a deep sleep after overdrawing her supernatural powers. It seemed that this intensity of treatment was quite exhausting for her.

Everyone's mood was full of ups and downs that day. Originally, they felt the joy of victory by destroying the spider's nest, but Lu Yuning was also seriously injured due to the failure of the exploration.

Just when they were feeling a bit hopeless, unexpectedly Xu Lele became the key figure and pulled the precarious team back.

……

Although this exploration failed, Lu Yuning did not think it was a reckless act.

In such an environment, there are some things that have to be done, and you can't not do them just because there are dangers. It can only be said that the preparations were not sufficient. However, no one could have imagined that two mutants would appear.

Now that I think about it, the one in the spider nest should be a female spider, and the one outside should be a male, so...

"You mean they'll produce mutant babies?!"

Lu Yuning shared his thoughts with everyone.

Everyone was shocked and felt a chill down their spines.

Just this one sudden mutant appearance almost wiped out the four of them. One could never imagine what a scene would be like with a whole nest of mutants.

Just thinking about it makes me tremble all over.

"It's just speculation. Our current understanding of mutants is limited to their aggressiveness and intelligence. We are completely unaware of their reproduction and other behaviors and the specific reasons behind them. So we still have to go to this spider's nest." Lu Yuning began to express his thoughts.

"Still going?!"

The four of them said in unison.

The shout also woke up Xu Lele who was sleeping.

Zhang Xinyue quickly stepped forward and touched her head: "How do you feel, Lele?"

"I'm not dizzy anymore, Sister Xinyue." Xu Lele was so well-behaved that it made people feel distressed.

Since joining everyone else, Xu Lele has almost never raised any requests and is very conscious of not causing trouble for everyone.

Naturally, everyone likes her very much.

Several people comforted her and continued the conversation.

"We still have to go. Those two mutants must have some materials on them, and we still have to collect the spider webs over there."

Everyone was silent for a long time, still digesting the information.

Lu Yuning spoke again, but with a strange expression: "Ahem, let's act together this time. Sister Qian and Lele's abilities can also be used."

Everyone was stunned at first. Obviously, this sounded extremely unreasonable. Apart from Xu Lele, Zhang Qian's abilities seemed to have no use.

Lu Yuning would not make such a decision given her personality.

“Okay, I think that makes sense.”

Zhang Xinyue's next words made everyone even more confused, but then they saw her winking at everyone.

Zhang Qian was the first to react and quickly said, "Okay, then I'll go with you tomorrow. Lele and I aren't safe staying here, so we'll be in the shelter today."

Zhang Qian's voice gradually became lower and lower. She pulled the few people closer and briefly explained what had happened to the people entering the shelter today.

"What?! There's someone?" Zou Yunxin shouted.

"Are you going out tomorrow?" Wu Xiao continued.

"It doesn't matter. From what Sister Qian said, those two little thieves shouldn't dare to come over again. We still have to do our serious work." Lu Yuning said.

"But."

"Yu Ning is right. It seems these two guys are not very courageous. They probably won't dare to come again."

"Well, we just need to keep the door closed tomorrow. I'm more worried if Sister Qian and Lele are here."

"Okay, but we can still crawl into the shelter through the water pipe," Zhang Xinyue said with some concern.

"They wouldn't have guessed that I buried it very secretly at the time." Lu Yuning said.

"That's the only way. It's getting late today, and Yu Ning's injury has just healed. Let's go to bed early after dinner." The few of them stopped talking, as if they had already made a decision. After dinner, they all went to bed early.

The next morning.

"Everything is almost ready, let's go"

At Lu Yuning's command, the six-member team entered the grass area in an orderly manner.

Silence returned.

Suddenly, a whispering sound came from behind a small stone near the grass.

"Are these guys really gone?"

"It seems so. I can see clearly this time. There are exactly six people."

"There won't be another blunder, will there?"

"rest assured"

"You said the same thing yesterday, but there were two more people in the room."

“I just dozed off.”

"You are really unreliable."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. These guys really don't take us seriously. Damn, they even said we were thieves. How arrogant." One of them was obviously ashamed of his mistake and quickly changed the subject.

“I feel like what they said makes sense.”

"what?"

"Aren't we going to steal some water?"

"That being said, we are borrowing it. It's not like we can't get the water ourselves."

"You're farting again! Tong Ling has been arrested. How are you going to get water?"

"At worst, I can drink some dew. If that doesn't work, I can just poop a few more times."

".Stop talking and get down to business." Obviously, this was a bad memory, and one of them didn't want to mention it again.

Just as the two of them finished talking, two small figures with the same color as the stone walked out from the stone in front of the grass.

As they left the stone, the color on their bodies gradually faded and soon returned to normal. Then two figures, one tall and one short, completely appeared.

The two of them kept looking in the direction where Lu Yuning and the others disappeared, fearing that they would suddenly turn back.

"I always feel like something is wrong." The shorter man was obviously more cautious.

"What's wrong?"

"I have a feeling they told you this on purpose, even explaining how to get into the shelter."

"You're overthinking it. Even the people from Starfire can't do anything to me with my ability. I can even simulate smells. I don't believe they can find me."

"That's true, though."

"Stop dithering. Are you going or not? I'm dying of thirst."

".Let's go"

The two chatted for a while and then climbed up the tree.

A few minutes later, the two of them climbed into the tree hole shelter along the pipe.

"Damn, this is so nice."

The two stared at the luxurious facilities in the shelter for a while.

"Why not just join them?" said the taller man.

"Forget it. They might not welcome us. Besides, we snuck in and got caught. We can't explain it."

"Yeah, forget it, let me borrow some water first."

Just as the two were about to continue their action, the sudden sound of voices scared them out of their wits.

"Haha, I finally caught you."
