Chapter 185 - 185: Humans Must Die
Fu Shinan felt connected to the pain, and when the intensity of the pain exceeded her tolerance, the connection was completely severed.
The black bear that lost control, not understanding why its companion had attacked it, fell to the ground. It immediately roared angrily and lunged at the other black bears.
Fu Shinan, enduring the pain in her body, quickly got up and said, “Let’s go.” Man Yu helped Fu Shinan to her feet, and they stumbled forward.
But they hadn’t run far when Wei Xinyi suddenly looked up and said, “The black bears realized they attacked the wrong people and are coming after us again.”
Man Yu couldn’t help but curse, “Whoever says animals have low intelligence, I’ll beat them up! Their reactions are too fast…”
Indeed, the footsteps behind them were getting louder, and Fu Shinan had to once again establish a mental connection and use the same method.
The black bears were bewildered again. Why did another companion turn against them?
Taking advantage of this confusion, they continued to sprint. At the same time, whirlwinds appeared under their feet, increasing their speed several times over. In the blink of an eye, they had run out of the range of the black bears. Finally, they could catch their breath.
Fu Shinan’s head was spinning even more. Her mental control had a drawback – every time she used it, she would feel dizzy and experience the pain of the controlled object. Although she wasn’t physically injured, the pain would slowly subside. Right now, she felt like she had been dragged out of the water.
Ji Zan quickly came to Fu Shinan and asked with concern, “How are you feeling?”
Fu Shinan weakly replied, “I’m okay, I can manage. It looks like we’ll have to camp here tonight; I don’t think anyone can walk any further…”
Upon hearing this, Ji Zan’s expression grew increasingly solemn. ‘We only have this mountain road ahead of us; the roads are all damaged. But crossing this mountain will be difficult.”
Professor Zhao, panting heavily, added, “These black bears have definitely mutated! Their behavior and appearance are completely different now. When we were conducting research before, we captured mutated animals, but their basic behavior didn’t change. I don’t know if it’s because as time passes in this post-apocalyptic world, their changes become more significant. It’s just that during that research and until now, apart from Fu Gill, this is the first time I’ve seen so many mutated animals.”
He Zhu couldn’t help but ask, “What can we do now? This is the only road we can continue on. Are we going to turn back? We’ve come so far…”
Professor Feng remained silent but was sweating profusely as he looked at Ji Zan.
Ji Zan also remained silent because he currently had no solution. Just dealing with a few black bears was already challenging, and who knew what other mutated animals might be lurking in the mountains. They were not in a position to engage in direct confrontations.
Man Yu lay on the ground, exhausted, and said weakly, “If only we could communicate with them. But according to Xinyi, these black bears harbor strong hatred toward humans! It’s truly inexplicable.”
“Do you know why?” Ji Zan asked Wei Xinyi.
Wei Xinyi shook her head. “They didn’t say. They just keep shouting that humans must die!”
The group fell into silence, faced with this seemingly insurmountable situation. Not knowing the reason behind the aggression and the bears’ determination to kill humans was frustrating and frightening.
After a while, Ji Zan, having rested enough, stood up and said, “I’ll go ahead and investigate. Perhaps it’s because we have too many people, and they perceive us as a threat, which is why they attacked.”
Liang Xuanzhe immediately responded, “No, it’s too dangerous, Mr. Ji. Please don’t act rashly! Just a while ago, with so many of us, we barely escaped. If those black bears are still determined to kill, what will one person do?”
Ji Zan replied confidently, “Don’t worry. I have wind abilities, so I can escape faster on my own.”
Liang Xuanzhe then remembered the gust of wind that had appeared at their feet earlier, realizing it was Ji Zan’s ability. In their rush to escape, they had overlooked it. Now, with a moment to reflect, he marveled, “So, Mr. Ji has special abilities too. Animals are evolving, zombies are evolving, and humans are evolving as well. So…”
He began to ponder whether the cure for the zombie virus might be found through these evolutions. However, with no equipment at their disposal, it was merely a thought. He then turned to Sun Han and MO Cheng.. “You two also have fire and electricity abilities, right?”
