Chapter 1149: Chapter 1149

The only consolation was that they were still alive and hadn’t died.

Lin Fan said, "Taking advantage of the turmoil within the organization, you ran away with the children and met an elderly man living in this base. He was the one who took you in, and your condition is the result of being injected with the serum."

"Yes." Uncle Hu nodded, "That old man was a scientist, very kind and full of goodwill. After learning about our situation, he studied our blood, saying that our bodies weren’t doing well with the genes mutating, and then he developed a medicine that he claimed could suppress the mutation in our genes."

"What happened to the old man?"

"He died, a month ago. He was bitten by a zombie. He always relied on medicine to suppress the zombie virus. At the time, he said he didn’t know much about zombies, so he delayed."

After hearing these words.

Lin Fan and Sun Neng exchanged a glance, curious about the identity of this old man.

Despite not understanding zombies, he managed to suppress the virus within himself in the shortest time without turning into a zombie, considering being bitten by a zombie usually results in turning into one in mere seconds.

The period is just a matter of seconds.

If he had lived, after gaining a better understanding of zombies, there could have been groundbreaking discoveries.

Lin Fan asked, "Do you still remember where that base was?"

As far as he knew, there were only two mysterious organizations in the apocalypse.

One was Qin Ling, and the other was Cui Xiaofei’s Mutant Organization.

He suspected that they had escaped from the Mutant Organization.

After all, only the Mutant Organization researched the serum.

"I remember, but it’s a bit far. We escaped from there because we were afraid of being found. It’s strange, ever since we were injected with the serum, ordinary zombies see us as if they don’t see us."

This was the reason the other party could bring the children here.

Otherwise, given the number of zombies in the apocalypse, reaching here safely would have been almost impossible.

Lin Fan said, "It’s normal, because you have zombie genes in your body, ordinary mindless zombies treat you as one of their kind."

Uncle Hu thought it made a lot of sense, just as the other party had said.

"We are no longer normal humans."

"No, you are normal. Your situation now is actually a kind of evolution. Externally, you are referred to as Mutants, evolving using zombie genes."

Lin Fan couldn’t let them think otherwise.

From his interactions so far, he knew they hadn’t read the Zombie Album; otherwise, they wouldn’t have acted this way.

Uncle Hu muttered to himself, "Mutant, huh..."

If possible, he only hoped he was the mutant, leaving the children to be well.

"This place isn’t safe, why not come with me to Huangshi Sunshine Shelter? Many people live there, there’s no need to worry about supplies, everything is covered."

Lin Fan extended an invitation to them; Sunshine Shelter was very safe.

Uncle Hu said, "But given our current situation, won’t we scare others?"

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Don’t worry, the people in Sunshine Shelter are all friendly. Besides, you haven’t read the Zombie Album. If you read it, you’ll understand a lot."

Uncle Hu stared at Lin Fan, seeing a kind of sincerity in his eyes, unlike joking.

Lin Fan spoke with determination.

For Uncle Hu, the pressure from taking care of these children was immense. He patrolled the base every night before sleeping, afraid of any slip-ups.

Always being in such a tense situation, without a strong heart, one might have already collapsed.

Lin Fan patted the children’s heads, smiling, "Once you reach Sunshine Shelter, you’ll meet many friends your age. Then you can learn together."

The children who were initially excited now looked at Lin Fan with wide, round eyes when they heard about learning together.

"Huh? We still have to study?"

"Of course you have to study! Did you think that just because the apocalypse came, you’ll never study again? Don’t worry, everything there is like before."

Lin Fan patted their heads.

He could sense their love of learning. Check latest chapters at novel(ꜰ)ire.net

It was truly heartwarming. The children today are resilient, determined to progress despite the apocalypse.

Thoughts turned to Feifei, Tingting, Wenwen... all children were .

This future holds hope.

Han Xiaoxiao, always by Sun Neng’s side, patted her chest, relieved. The original choice was right; staying at Sunshine Shelter would mean studying too.

Just thinking about it felt terrifying, right?

At this moment, Uncle Hu felt much calmer.

Though he didn’t know what Sunshine Shelter was like, he believed it marked a beautiful beginning for them.

"Now that everything is resolved, Xiaoxiao and I should head out. Remember what we talked about before, don’t forget the salary," Sun Neng said.

Lin Fan replied, "Alright, don’t worry, it’s always on my mind."

Sun Neng said, "I know you’re searching for those two organizations and the Creator. As soon as I spot any trace, I’ll notify you immediately."
