Chapter 884 884: Attacked From Both Sides ( 5 )
Jian Huan and Jian Ziqin shook their heads when they heard Mo Junjie's question.
Seeing this, he explained, "The reason we are now called mutants is that we are no longer human. We can't consume ordinary food unless there is energy contained in it."
The moment they heard this, both Jian Huan and Jian Ziqin were stunned.
They didn't realize this because they liked the taste of mutant meat. Since they could afford it, they no longer settled for ordinary food. It was only now that they realized it.
Seeing their expressions, Mo Junjie shook his head but said nothing.
Du Beiye glanced at them and added, "The situation of each mutant is different. Not every mutant can eat normal food, but some of them are able to. Maybe both of you can eat it."
After she said this, she went to collect the supplies. Like she just said, the mutants living here and those living in Huaxia were different.
She didn't know the reason why people didn't eat ordinary food here, but people in Huaxia, including the mutants, could eat ordinary food. It was just that the taste was worse than before.
This was also the reason why they collected every supply they found.
It took her 10 minutes to collect everything, and when she was done, they went to the lower floor. They continued collecting the supplies until they reached the ground floor where the hypermart was located.
Unlike the warehouse and office areas on the upper floor, the ground floor was messy. Half of the area had been cleaned up, as all the supplies, including the shelves, were piled up on the other side.
When they arrived, they saw more than 3,000 people sitting on the floor, covered with cardboard. The moment the people saw them, they stared at them warily.
Just as Yuan Ruiyue and the members took a step forward, Du Beiye raised her arm and blocked them. "Wait."
"What's wrong?" Yuan Ruiyue asked.
Before Du Beiye could reply, they heard screams and shouts coming from behind the group, near the wall.
"Argh! Let me go! Help!"
"Someone, save me!"
"No, he is going crazy! Kill him, quick!"
At the same time, Krayan's voice echoed in Du Beiye's mind.
"Host, the system detected a large amount of Matkuna eggs spreading through the air. The number of infected subjects has reached 179 people."
The moment she heard this, a realization hit her. They always thought that the organization captured the people to use them as the Matkuna soldiers' food reserve and overlooked something more important than food.
"They capture people as breeding vessels," she muttered through gritted teeth.
Mo Junjie turned to her when he heard her words. His mind spun at a fast speed, and he asked, "Beiye, do you still have the serum?"
Du Beiye shook her head and replied, "These people are commoners. Their bodies can't withstand the eggs draining their nutrients. They will die in less than 5 minutes after they go out of control."
"In that case, we can only prevent the spreading further," Yuan Ruiyue suddenly said.
The next moment, he rushed toward the panicked crowd. Seeing this, Jian Huan quickly created a spatial area around him to protect him from being infected.
It had only been a few seconds since the first person went out of control. In such a short time, a total of 27 people had fallen to the ground as they bled from their orifices. They convulsed for a moment before they lay still.
From the blood flowing out of their bodies, countless white eggs the size of dust mixed in.
Yuan Ruiyue circulated his energy to control the blood and crushed the eggs.
At the same time, Du Beiye said, "Krayan, activate the battle mode. Eliminate all the targets."
The next second, Du Beiye's eye color turned silver, and her voice sounded like a machine. "Battle mode activated. Locking targets. The elimination process starts."
Before anyone could react, she had already disappeared from the spot and reappeared behind the crowd. What followed was a massacre. As her daggers slashed down, two people lost their lives, lying in a pool of blood.
When the survivors saw this, their eyes widened in shock. Mo Junjie looked at her and stayed as calm as usual.
With a wave of his hand, a wave of black mist seeped out of his body. The black mist spread to the surroundings and covered the bodies lying on the ground.
The black mist only stayed for a few seconds in one spot. When the black mist moved away, what was left behind was nothing but a pool of black liquid.
This time, Jian Huan and Jian Ziqin were too stunned to react.
The massacre lasted for 7 minutes. When Du Beiye killed the last vessel of the Matkuna eggs, everyone finally reacted.
Under everyone's gaze, she scanned the area and said, "All infected targets have been eliminated. Mission complete."
After she said this, her eye color returned to normal. Du Beiye cleaned her daggers before sheathing them. When she raised her gaze, she said, "The infections won't spread anymore. All of you are safe for now."
When they heard her words, the survivors didn't feel grateful at all. Instead, they stared at her in anger. Although they were angry, they feared her more. So, although they wanted to kill her to avenge their friends and family members, they didn't dare to do anything.
While she noticed their killing intent, Du Beiye didn't put it in her eyes. She took out her satellite phone and sent a message to her sister.
Afterward, she turned to the survivors and asked, "There are a lot of supplies in this place. Why do none of you use them?"
Hearing her words, the survivors exchanged glances. The entire area fell into silence until a man broke it.
"We didn't dare to eat the food or drink the water."
"Why? Is there something wrong with the supplies?" Yuan Ruiyue asked.
The man hesitated for a moment before he said, "Those people became like that after they ate the food and drank the water."
"If you didn't use the supplies, then how did you survive?" Du Beiye asked curiously.
