Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory

"You're a beast!" Zhao Pingsheng exclaimed in shock as he looked at Huo Ling.

Huo Ling sat in his usual spot, expertly poured himself a cup of tea, glanced at Zhao Pingsheng, and said with complete nonchalance, "How am I livestock?"

Zhao Pingsheng sized him up, too embarrassed to comment on his smug look. He deliberately fanned the air in front of him with the form in his hand. "You reek of love! What are you if not an animal? We're both affected by the surge in pollution, and Lao Zhang and the others are still lying in bed, while you have time to bother me?"

He asked him if he had any conscience at all, "I stayed up all night saving you guys! Don't I deserve a moment's peace and quiet? Why do you have to come and torment me?"

The child has developed psychological trauma from being constantly subjected to displays of affection between couples.

Huo Ling glanced around; many instruments were still in use, one of which showed it had been turned on ten minutes ago. "You weren't sleeping either, were you?"

This proves that he had just woken up as well.

Zhao Pingsheng rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. "Can't I just stay quiet for a while? Fine, fine, hurry up and get to the point. If you have something to say, say it. If you have something to say, spit it out."

Huo Ling then asked seriously, "Regarding the source of the pollution, can you find out where the epicenter of the outbreak is?"

Zhao Pingsheng quickly realized, "Are you implying that this is targeting us? Impossible. This is a global issue. I know you're worried about Shuangshuang, but her value isn't enough for the whole world to pay for her."

Huo Ling breathed a sigh of relief. "How's the situation at the various bases now?"

Zhao Pingsheng also seriously showed him the data, "I do have real-time monitoring, but currently there is only publicly available data statistics, which may not be accurate. Currently, the percentage of superhumans who have fallen ill in major bases is as high as 60%. This is a data table. Look at this trend. The speed is astonishing. If this continues for a while, all superhumans in the world will die out."

Many of the videos he collected were from a first-person perspective. Many of the superhumans were just like normal people at first, but then suddenly fell ill and collapsed. Then the lower-level superhumans were like that during the zombie outbreak.

After getting up, their bodies twisted and their eyes became cloudy. They would pounce on and bite anyone they saw. What's even more terrifying is that they also have superpowers and can quickly turn the base into a mess.

Earth-type ability users caused the buildings in the base to collapse, while fire-type users set off raging fires...

And so on and so forth.

Huo Ling carefully observed how they were sick, then pulled up the video stored in his bracelet and compared it with the first zombie outbreak.

Zhao Pingsheng said, "Luckily, I saved it quickly. This morning, the authorities intervened to clear the area, and many videos were deleted to avoid causing panic."

The base was originally intended as a refuge for survivors, but it has now become a hell on earth, from which the survivors have no way to escape.

The most terrifying video is filled with heart-wrenching screams.

The ground was covered in bright red.

Huo Ling frowned as he watched, feeling physically uncomfortable. He turned off the video. "The base's protective measures are so poor, and the response is too slow."

Zhao Pingsheng couldn't help but say, "Do you think everyone is as physically strong as you? Many superhumans are lying down. Right now, in this whole little castle, we're the only two still standing. And stop bullying Shuangshuang all the time..."

His second half of the sentence was vague: "I'm reminding you as a doctor."

Huo Ling was rarely speechless, and looked at his friend with an expression as if he were looking at a pervert.

Zhao Pingsheng was also embarrassed. "Stop, stop, stop! Do you think this is what I wanted to say? I didn't want to care either! I'm just trying to be helpful, you know? Besides, after an ability user evolves, although they are different from a modified humanoid weapon, after absorbing the alien core, they will also fuse with animal genes, and their body odor will be more obvious. I'm not being nosy, it's just that you have a certain smell."

He pulled up several papers, and some of the superhumans are now experiencing a heat cycle.

Zhao Pingsheng initially felt awkward, but he became serious as he talked. In the end, academics came first, and acquaintances didn't matter!

"I...I know, I've seen this type of material, A/O...believe in this kind of thing..."

Luo Na struggled to climb in from the outside, successfully startling Huo Ling and Zhao Pingsheng.

The two of them were startled.

Zhao Pingsheng was so frightened that he jumped up, almost pressing himself against the wall, "Holy crap..."

He doesn't actually swear.

But with seven people together every day, it's easy for them to catch each other's verbal tics.

Huo Ling breathed a sigh of relief. "Why are you here?"

Lorna coughed, "I'm so weak, I came up here for a checkup..."

Zhao Pingsheng went to help her up.

Lorna said, "No need! A strong woman doesn't need that!" She stubbornly continued swimming the butterfly stroke on land...

In the end, Zhao Pingsheng helped her up, and Huo Ling silently pulled out the chair on the other side.

Rona slumped onto the table, "I'm exhausted..."

Zhao Pingsheng checked her over. "You can just make a phone call."

Lorna sighed, "I called, but no one answered..."

Zhao Pingsheng quickly looked down and saw three or four missed calls. He was extremely embarrassed. He turned to look at his teammates' health monitoring screen and said, "Sorry, sorry, the health monitoring didn't alert me. I didn't notice for a moment..."

Lorna readily agreed, saying it was no problem, "It's just a short walk, I can get up here myself."

She said that life is full of surprises, and relying on yourself is the most reliable thing to do!

Awesome.

Zhao Pingsheng and Huo Ling silently applauded her twice, and Luo Na humbly accepted.

Lorna was also suffering from fever and had no other choice, so she came to Zhao Pingsheng and said, "Am I going to undergo a second evolution? I think being an Alpha is pretty good, hehe."

While the words may be crude but the principle is sound, isn't this a bit too crude?!

Huo Ling shifted his gaze to the teacup.

Zhao Pingsheng coughed, "It's not that bad, it's not that bad."

At this moment, Lorna was almost like she had drunk fake alcohol; her mind was still muddled, so she said whatever came to mind, and her symptoms were similar.

Zhao Pingsheng prescribed some medicine for her. Most of the time, he was a gentle and reliable doctor, but occasionally he would turn into a volatile and frantic research fanatic.

After taking the medicine, Lorna felt much better, but she still insisted on going downstairs by herself.

Zhao Pingsheng and Huo Ling brought up the mistresses and had them escort her downstairs.

This surge in pollution levels is indeed troublesome.

Huo Ling frowned. "I'll figure it out myself. You go and check on Gao Lei, Wu Zhe, and Lao Zhang first."

Zhao Pingsheng had already started packing his things. "That's exactly what I was thinking. Let's talk later."

Lorna's actions made him feel very guilty, and he felt he had to increase his follow-up visits.

"I've been listening to those nonsensical novels played out loud by Luo Na every day. I'm afraid I really need to put up some kind of barrier. You guys all smell so strongly of each other."

The fumes gave Zhao Pingsheng a headache.

Huo Ling, on the contrary, was not sensitive to this, and Luo Na seemed not to have noticed either. "It's probably related to your wood-type ability."

Zhao Pingsheng rubbed his forehead. "Probably. You guys should all stay home for a while."

The little castle is now in a fairly safe place, surrounded by ruins. Even with invisibility enabled, no one can detect its coordinates.

Huo Ling agreed, "Okay."
