Chapter 2: Infected Experiment
Two words, and nothing would happen, only to be met with Ling’s glance that looked at you like you were an idiot.
And it’s not something I can control myself; it all appeared suddenly. I woke up one day feeling different.
It’s unexplainable, but I know I’m lucky.
If this power, which feels like something out of a novel’s cheat system, hadn’t appeared in me, I probably wouldn’t have survived.
If I didn’t survive, Rin’s fate wouldn’t be good either.
Apart from her special abilities of never getting sick and being nearly invisible to monsters—-5x6x7x8x点.c()m—-she’s no different from an ordinary person.
Even if she weren’t attacked by monsters or infected, a young girl like Rin wouldn’t encounter anything good in this kind of apocalypse .
We’ve already met many scumbags who had unlawful intentions toward Rin, because in this post-apocalyptic world, few men could maintain civilized reasoning when encountering a beautiful girl like her.
Moreover, most survivors who manage to stay alive during a disaster are unlikely to be good people.
“Brother?”
“Sorry, I spaced out for a moment.” I checked my gear and prepared to enter the residential building.
The goal was to find enough food or anything useful—preferably a map of the city or something similar, as that would be the most important.
Ling stood beside me, her hair tied in a single ponytail, holding a iron in her hand, looking completely at ease, showing no concern for the potential dangers ahead.
Clearly, she trusted me a great deal—not to mention she herself wouldn’t be in danger unless encountering hostile human survivors.
“…” I glanced at Ling once more, relieved that this time, the girl was dressed somewhat normally.
Though her upper body still wore a sleeveless athletic top, she had finally put on a pair of stretch denim pants, at least covering her buttocks.
The girl’s outfit today was also a cropped top, but different from yesterday’s—this one was sporty, so it fit tighter. And tighter meant it accentuated her -shaped curves, along with the clearly protruding . As usual, Rin wasn’t wearing a .
The black cropped top hugged the girl’s not-so-small, lovely , making her look like some kind of maniac. Yet she didn’t seem to care at all, as if her sense of had completely vanished.
Though the way the little girl’s half- were pressed into shape was quite , I found her boldly exposed lower belly and cute little navel even more .
The weather was quite hot today, and the was blazing. Rin had no choice but to dress like this.
Due to genetic evolution, I rarely feel heat or cold anymore.
“It’s quite hot today.” Rin wiped the sweat from her forehead and followed me into the apartment building.
Since all my senses had been enhanced, I naturally walked ahead, with Rin following not far behind.
I didn’t let her get too close to me—just in case we encountered monsters or any other trouble. This way, Rin could run or hide first, allowing me to focus fully on fighting.
However, it was clear that this identical apartment building was just like the previous one, with nothing particularly special about it.
After exploring the third floor, we found a temporary place to rest and checked what each of us had collected.
Although the building looked dilapidated, it had good security measures—most doors were locked, and since they were all anti-theft doors, breaking in took quite some effort.
Fortunately, we didn’t encounter many infected—only about ten—and none were special variants.
Fortunately, we found some canned food, which is great, and some medicines that haven’t expired yet. Although we might not need them, it’s better to have them than not. If we encounter other survivors, we can use them for trade.
As for daily necessities, we found many replacements, such as a well-used water bottle, an iron pot, bowls, chopsticks, and so on.
