Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

Chapter 61: Instigation

It was already late at night, and the safe zone fell into silence.

This is the second night after the disaster. Everyone in the safe zone fell asleep in exhaustion and fear. This situation may continue for a long time. They will have to adapt to the rules of this cruel new era.

Dr. Zhou patrolled the safe zone, checking the conditions of each ward one by one, just as he had become accustomed to doing over the years.

Finally, he also went to see the imprisoned Chen Qingzhu. The ward where Chen Qingzhu was imprisoned was a little far away from the other survivors. This was to take into account Dr. Chen's unstable mood and to prevent him from hurting others after waking up. This was the arrangement for all those with hidden dangers, including Zhao Huanxi and Chu Yan.

In order to stop Chen Qingzhu from losing control, Dr. Zhou injected him with a considerable dose of sedative, which has not completely worn off until now. He lies on the hospital bed, looking extremely haggard.

Doctor Zhou sighed, but he had no better solution. He could only instruct the nurse at the door to keep an eye on Chen Qingzhu and then turned and left.

He rubbed his sore eyes. Although as a doctor he was used to staying up late and working overtime, he was getting old after all, and he couldn't bear not sleeping for two days.

"Director, you should go to sleep first." A young doctor came over and advised in a low voice.

Doctor Zhou wanted to hold on a little longer, after all, he was still thinking about the two tubes of blood samples he had just collected, but he was really sleepy now, so he had to give in: "Ten years ago, I performed three major operations in a row without feeling sleepy... Forget it... I'm going to take a nap, call me if there's anything. Don't let your guard down, no one knows what we will encounter at this time."

The young doctor nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Dr. Zhou was still a little uneasy - Su Muhe had come to tell him before that the murderer of Zhang Shuonian was Zheng Wei, who escaped after her identity was discovered. The dangerous woman was probably still watching this safe zone in the dark.

But all he could do was to remind the night patrolmen to be more vigilant and never let Zheng Wei in - everyone knew what Zheng Wei looked like anyway, so he just needed to ask the gatekeeper to be careful.

……

Zhao Huanxi opened her eyes in horror and sat up from the bed screaming.

She had a terrible nightmare in which a bloody baby was chasing her with an uncut umbilical cord hanging from its back. The baby was crying and calling for its mother in a very eerie voice. In the dream, she stumbled and fell to the ground, and then the baby jumped on her and went straight into her stomach.

She watched helplessly as the baby tore open her stomach, yelling "Mom" as it crawled into her stomach, eating up all of her internal organs...

After being awakened by the nightmare, Zhao Huanxi broke out in a cold sweat. She gasped for breath. The feeling in the dream just now was too real, so after waking up, she couldn't help but lift up her clothes to check her stomach.

"Damn it, why did I have such a dream..."

Zhao Huanxi had had an abortion, more than once - given her lifestyle, it would be strange if she had not had an abortion.

She thought very clearly that she could have a child, but the child must be from an upper-class family, and then she could climb to a high position by relying on the child.

At this moment, she suddenly discovered that the ward door, which had been closed all the time, was opened without her knowing when, and the nurse guarding the door was nowhere to be seen.

"Did something happen?" she thought to herself as she slowly approached the door - she had not yet fully recovered from An Suxin's beating and her whole body was in pain.

"Nothing happened. I just temporarily sent the nurse away for you." This voice suddenly sounded like a ghost, which really scared Zhao Huanxi.

She turned her head and saw a tall woman sitting on the table in the shadows with her legs elegantly crossed, looking at her with amusement.

A flash of jealousy flashed across Zhao Huanxi's eyes. This was another woman so beautiful that she made her feel inferior.

"Who are you?" Zhao Huanxi asked vigilantly.

The woman stared at her and said, "Tsk tsk!" "That man was really cruel. Such a pretty face was beaten black and blue. Don't you agree?"

Zhao Huanxi was furious, but the woman in front of her made her instinctively afraid. She didn't dare to say anything and could only say stubbornly, "I will take revenge sooner or later!"

"Sooner or later? How late?" The woman bluntly exposed Zhao Huanxi's true face as a paper tiger. "You are afraid of her. You know very well that you are no match for her."

Zhao Huanxi's face froze, as the fear in his heart was touched.

"Of course. How can you be a match for that woman? Oh, by the way, it seems that you are not only worried about An Suxin, but also about a doctor who wants to kill you. His name seems to be Doctor Chen, right?"

When Zhao Huanxi mentioned Chen Qingzhu, his face turned pale, as if he saw those murderous eyes again. Although An Suxin beat and tortured him, at least that woman didn't kill her. But Chen Qingzhu, the man who lost his lover because of her, was really... going to fight her to the death.

"He...he doesn't dare to kill me. He will realize it when he calms down...killing is illegal! He...he is a doctor with a bright future. There is no need for him to ruin his bright future for someone like me. At most, when I get out, I will go to the police and turn myself in!" Zhao Huanxi stuttered. The more he spoke, the more he felt that what he said made sense. "Besides, if she doesn't die in that situation, we will both die! We can only blame her for hiding well. Why did she run out!"

The woman couldn't help laughing when she heard what Zhao Huanxi said: "You are such a rare scumbag. But is it fun to deceive yourself?"

Zhao Huanxi opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

"Although you are stupid, you are not dumb. I don't believe you can't see that this world is doomed. Future? Turn yourself in? Don't make me laugh to death. Do these things still exist in this world?"

The woman said in a deep voice, her eerie voice seeming to penetrate into her heart: "In today's world, killing someone doesn't cost anything, whether it's him... or you."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't need to teach you this, a bad woman like you should know the principle of striking first to gain the upper hand. I can tell you the location of the room where Chen Qingzhu is being held, and the sedative on him hasn't worn off yet."

...Kill the other person before you are killed!

"...You...what is your purpose..." Zhao Huanxi was not stupid enough after all. She knew that the person in front of her was using her as a gun.

"Purpose? Well, if I must say it, I want to cause a little trouble to some people. By the way," the woman's eyes were cold, but deep in them, there was a flash of madness and morbidity, "Don't you think it's very interesting to let people locked in a cage fight each other?"

madman……

Zhao Huanxi could see that this woman was a complete psychopath. Her brain circuits must be different from those of normal people!

But she also admitted that if she continued to stay here, she would definitely die at the hands of Chen Qingzhu. There were zombies everywhere outside, and she couldn't escape alone. Chen Qingzhu would definitely not let her go. In this case...

Then strike first and gain the upper hand!

In the past, this selfish woman would not be so easily instigated, but the fear of being killed and the resentment of being beaten and tortured, coupled with the mysterious virus she was infected with, made her impulsive and reckless.

"Zheng Wei" watched Zhao Huanxi disappear into the darkness and said, "It's great to have such a stupid person. It's a pity that I can't see what will happen next. It will definitely be very interesting."

If possible, she would like to stay and see how the situation will develop, but unfortunately the person who is here to pick her up has already arrived.

The communicator on her body continued to vibrate non-stop. She complained, "I'm coming, don't rush me. As soon as you heard that I got the things, you came faster than a dog. Don't you know that my leg was shot through and it hasn't healed yet?"

"You didn't do anything unnecessary, did you?" asked the cold voice in the communication.

"How could that be? After getting the blood sample, I waited obediently for the helicopter to pick me up." She answered lazily.

"That's great. We will send someone over as soon as possible to capture the living sample. It's an extremely precious sample, and we can't afford to make any mistakes!"

"Okay, okay, just send someone. She's staying in the safe area of ​​the hospital anyway, she can't go anywhere."

After she finished speaking, she turned off the communicator, walked deeper into the safe zone, found the right direction, opened a window, and suddenly, the night wind rushed in.

A helicopter flew in from a distance, hung in the air, and lowered a rope ladder in the direction of "Zheng Wei".

"Well, we'll say goodbye for now. If you survive, maybe we'll meet again soon."

Chapter 62: Corpse Transformation

The woman's words were like the whispers of a demon, circling in Zhao Huanxi's mind. These words aroused the darkness hidden in Zhao Huanxi's heart, and like a catalyst, she was gradually controlled by fear and resentment in her heart. The virus hidden in Zhao Huanxi's heart also reared its head at this time, causing Zhao Huanxi's reason to gradually slide to the edge of losing control.

Strike first and gain the upper hand! Not only Chen Qingzhu, but An Suxin will also have to pay the price!

Hatred and fear are both excellent catalysts for the virus. Just like Chen Qingzhu who was obsessed with revenge before, Zhao Huanxi, who was aroused by murderous intent due to fear, seemed to be burning with a layer of poisonous fire, which eroded her sanity, and gradually only one thought remained.

In order to survive... kill him!

She walked into an empty nurse's office, found a pair of sharp scissors as a weapon, and then, using the shadows in the darkness, quietly approached the ward where Chen Qingzhu was imprisoned.

The ward where Chen Qingzhu was imprisoned was deep in the ward, away from everyone, which made it easier for Zhao Huanxi to do his job. A nurse was standing guard at the door of the ward, dozing off and nodding her head.

——If you want to kill Chen Qingzhu, this guy at the door is an obstacle.

Zhao Huanxi approached slowly like a hunting beast. The dozing nurse had no idea that someone would approach her with murderous intentions at this time. She just opened her eyes dazedly. At this moment, Zhao Huanxi covered the nurse's mouth with one hand, and then the tip of the scissors pierced into the nurse's neck.

Like Chen Qingzhu, Zhao Huanxi herself did not realize that she was incredibly strong at this moment, and easily subdued the unsuspecting nurse. The nurse's carotid artery was cut by the scissors, and a large amount of blood instantly gushed out, staining the white wall red. After her body struggled and twitched twice, it soon stopped moving and turned into a dead body.

Even if Sun Muqing is included, this is the first time for Zhao Huanxi to kill someone in the true sense. This nurse is also Zhao Huanxi's colleague. Although they don't have a very good relationship, they are still close friends. But now, when Zhao Huanxi attacked her, he didn't hesitate at all.

Zhao Huanxi let go of her hand and looked at the blood-stained white nurse uniform, her eyes full of twisted pleasure. She found the key from the body, unlocked the door, pushed the door open, looked at the figure lying on the bed, and closed the ward behind her with a grim smile.

Zhao Huanxi, who was immersed in murderous intent, did not notice that after she closed the door, the body lying beside the door suddenly moved strangely...

……

In another ward, Chu Yan, who had been in a coma for the whole day, did not fall asleep, but was whispering these words to Su Muhe.

As a "creator" who often stays up late, Miss Susu becomes more energetic as the night goes on.

"Susu, I suddenly have a question." Chu Yan suddenly asked, "Since we can assume that all survivors are infected with the virus, then assuming that the survivors infected with the virus died without their brains being damaged, what would happen?"

"Ah, I haven't thought about this situation, but when I heard you say that, I have a bad feeling." Miss Susu looked bitter.

"Yeah, this feeling is pretty bad." Chu Yan looked outside the bed and stated her own conclusion, "After death, the body is very likely to be controlled by the virus and become a zombie..."

……

After entering the ward, Zhao Huanxi did not turn on the lights. In the dim night light, she saw her target lying on the hospital bed.

It seemed that the effect of the sedative had not yet worn off. Chen Qingzhu's eyes were tightly closed and his brows were furrowed. Even in his sleep, his expression looked very painful.

Zhao Huanxi would not hesitate. Now was her perfect opportunity to kill Chen Qingzhu. She approached the bed, raised the sharp scissors in her hand high, aimed at Chen Qingzhu's vitals, and then stabbed her hard.

At this critical moment, Chen Qingzhu's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and at the critical moment, he raised his hand to block Zhao Huanxi's attack. The sharp tip of the scissors pierced Chen Qingzhu's hand, and the bloody tip was only a hair's breadth away from his chest.

Zhao Huanxi was shocked, but at this moment the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. He did not care about anything else and used all his strength to push the scissors down.

In the dark night, two pairs of bloodshot eyes suddenly looked at each other. Chen Qingzhu immediately recognized that the woman in front of him was his enemy, and a suppressed roar suddenly came from his throat: This hateful woman, not only did she kill her lover, but now she is going to kill him!

Rather than calling for help or saving his own life, Dr. Chen, overwhelmed by hatred, wanted to kill the woman in front of him! He ignored the pierced hand and the sharp weapon that was gradually approaching his heart. The man suddenly raised his other intact hand and strangled Zhao Huanxi's neck.

He used force with one hand, trying to strangle Zhao Huanxi to death!

Zhao Huanxi was completely mad at this moment. The situation had reached a point where he would fight to the death. He ignored the hand that was tightening around his neck, and gritted his teeth as he pushed the scissors towards Chen Qingzhu's heart.

The tip of the scissors pierced into Chen Qingzhu's chest, moving deeper and deeper. Blood flowed out and the clothes on his chest were gradually stained red.

Zhao Huanxi's eyes gradually began to roll, he could no longer breathe, and his consciousness became blurred. He was only supported by a fierce aura.

After all, Chen Qingzhu had not fully recovered from the effects of the sedative. Due to the effect of the drug, his hands were not strong enough. Even though he had great hatred and murderous intent in his heart, he gradually lost the upper hand in this life-and-death duel.

Before Zhao Huanxi was strangled to death by Chen Qingzhu, the scissors in her hand pierced Chen Qingzhu's heart. His blood stained the bed sheet red, and Dr. Chen's hand finally fell down helplessly.

Zhao Huanxi covered her neck and gasped for air. The lack of oxygen in her brain made her eyes go black. When she came to her senses, she looked at Dr. Chen who was already dead on the bed and smiled crazily: "You bastard! You wanted to kill me, didn't you? But I killed you first! Go downstairs and accompany your dead girlfriend!"

The woman kicked the corpse on the bed angrily again, then she felt relieved and leaned against the wall to leave the ward.

After killing Chen Qingzhu, the relief of the crisis being resolved made her murderous intent recede like a tide. Zhao Huanxi came to her senses and was a little surprised that she could actually do such a bold thing.

She did not regret her "impulsiveness" this time, but she was a little scared. If the sedative had not been effective, she would have been the one who died.

Zhao Huanxi walked to the door, holding on to the wall, with a heart full of panic and relief. However, when she opened the door of the ward, she found that the body of the nurse who was supposed to have fallen to the ground was gone!

There was only a pool of blood on the ground.

Zhao Huanxi was immediately terrified: Where is her body? Did someone move the body away? Was I discovered? It couldn't be that the body stood up and walked away by itself...

Thinking of this, she suddenly realized that at this moment, the outside world was full of corpses that could move on their own...

"...Hey, hey, hey, no way..."

The woman immediately thought of something, she slowly turned her head and looked into the ward. She saw Chen Qingzhu's body on the bed, who had sat up again at some point, the scissors still stuck in the man's chest, blood dripping continuously.

——Escape, you must escape quickly!

Zhao Huanxi immediately turned around and ran, taking advantage of the time when the zombies behind him hadn't caught up with him yet, he rushed into an empty office, hid in a cabinet, curled up, trembling, and completely lost the ruthlessness he had just had...

So, just like that, two zombies appeared in the safe zone where people were already fast asleep, like two sparks landing on a pile of hay...

Chapter 63 Chaos

It seemed very noisy outside. Chu Xiao seemed to hear a scream and was suddenly awakened from his dream.

"You're awake?" An Suxin whispered beside him, "You woke up just in time."

"As soon as I heard the screams, I woke up immediately. It was like I had PTSD." Chu Xiao covered his still dizzy head and asked An Suxin, "What's going on now?"

“I don’t know, but don’t be too optimistic.”

There was no light in the ward. In the dim light, Chu Xiao saw that the girls were ready. Ruan Mengmeng was squatting by the door with a samurai sword in her hand. Su Muhe put the supplies they had collected into a backpack and put it on his back, looking nervous. Even his sister, who had been lying in bed, had changed her clothes and stood in front of the ward door to check the situation outside.

Seeing Chu Xiao wake up, she quickly walked to Chu Xiao and handed him the loaded shotgun: "Brother, we seem to be in trouble."

In order to ensure that patients have a good treatment environment, the sound insulation of the wards in Qinghe Hospital is quite good, so by the time the girls heard the noise outside, it was already quite chaotic.

The screams that came one after another have awakened the entire safe zone, and chaos has been completely ignited.
