Chapter 146 Long Yuanxi Awakens
Mu Qing is the Tree of Life, possessing powerful vitality. Zombies, on the other hand, are merely lifeless objects. Even if they regain their senses, their bodies remain dead, devoid of any life force.
They could be described as walking corpses.
With the infusion of Long Yangyang's life force, Long Yuanxi's heartbeat began to recover. Everyone was only doing this because Long Yangyang used her wood-type ability to heal Long Yuanxi.
After the crystal core entered Long Yuanxi's mind, it began to automatically fuse with Long Yuanxi's brain tissue, as if it was born to grow there.
However, at this moment, Long Yuanxi's arm was still turning blue, and his heart rate dropped sharply again.
"Yangyang!" Upon seeing this, Long Yuanchen didn't know whether he should pull Long Yangyang away from Long Yuanxi's hand. Was Yuanxi about to turn into a zombie?
Long Yuanchen struggled to look at the number on the instrument, which had dropped to twenty. Song Ying was already sobbing uncontrollably as she was taken away by Long Ye. Long Yangyang shook her head at Long Yuanxi.
Originally, the Long family, Yueyao, Qiuling, and Yun Cangshu were observing in the laboratory. After Long Ye and his wife left, only 5 people remained.
Long Yangyang's serious gaze fell on Long Yuanxi, whose skin had turned bluish-black. The human life signs on him were getting weaker and weaker, as if he would turn into a zombie at any moment.
"It's just a level nine zombie. We've encountered them before. Let's wait a little longer." She didn't want to give up until the very last moment.
Long Yangyang continued to infuse Long Yuanxi with life force. In her other hand, which was not holding Long Yuanxi, a handful of emerald green leaves appeared. The leaves were crystal clear, just like the finest jade.
"Brother Cangshu, squeeze the juice from these leaves and inject it into Second Brother's body using a syringe."
Yun Cangshu didn't speak, but put Long Yangyang's words into practice. After the juice extracted from the leaves of the Life Tree was injected into Long Yuanxi's bluish arm, the bluish color stopped deepening.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this; there was hope.
Long Yangyang pressed her advantage, increasing the injection of life force while using her wood-based abilities to heal Long Yuanxi's internal organs.
Although it wasn't visible on the surface, the implantation of the zombie crystal core caused Long Yuanxi's internal organs to begin showing signs of decay.
After an unknown amount of time, Long Yangyang discovered that in addition to her own energy, there was another power healing Long Yuanxi's body.
With the addition of this energy, Long Yuanxi's dark blue body began to fade gradually, and his heartbeat returned to normal.
"Sister Li Qin, collect Second Brother's blood. Maybe it contains antibodies that can fight off the zombie virus," Long Yangyang reminded her.
After the crystal core transplant surgery, Li Qin stood by and observed Long Yuanxi's condition, fearing that he might suddenly turn into a zombie.
"Lingling, how is my second brother?" Long Yangyang knew that Qiu Ling's special ability allowed her to tell at a glance whether someone was human or a zombie.
"Half red dots and half blue dots indicate a half-human, half-zombie." This was the first time Qiu Ling had ever seen such a label.
"Sister Long, don't worry, Brother Long's health bar is increasing little by little."
Upon hearing this, Long Yangyang's eyes lit up, and the tension in her heart finally eased. This meant that there was still a high possibility that her second brother could be restored to human form.
"Sister Long, keep going! Brother Long's health bar has recovered to three-quarters." Qiu Ling said with a happy expression, the red dot representing the zombie in her eyes getting dimmer and dimmer.
Long Yuanchen glanced at Qiu Ling thoughtfully. This child's ability was quite unique. However, now was not the time to study Qiu Ling's ability.
Li Qin then drew a little more of Long Yuanxi's blood. At this moment, Long Yuanxi's skin had turned a cold white, completely losing the bluish-black color that he had shown at the beginning.
He just looked a bit pale and sickly.
"Take a rest, Yangyang." Fu Muyu returned at some point and appeared beside Long Yangyang. He took Long Yangyang's hand and, noticing that she was about to collapse, immediately stepped forward and hugged her.
"I have frozen time in Yuanxi. It will last for about five minutes. You can absorb some purification crystals to replenish your powers."
Long Yangyang nodded, letting Fu Muyu carry her to a sofa chair. She took out a purified wood-type crystal core from her spatial storage and began to absorb it.
Seeing Long Yangyang's condition, the others remained silent and stood quietly to the side to protect her.
"Sister Long," Qiu Ling rushed over immediately after Long Yangyang opened her eyes, "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing, just overuse of my powers," Long Yangyang replied with a smile. Using the mutated plant's abilities, Long Yangyang needed to expend twice the amount of wood-type power.
She also needed to use her wood-based abilities to treat Long Yuanxi, so the energy expenditure was huge, and she was starting to feel the strain.
However, the Tree of Life, being a mutated plant, cannot be exposed. Its ability to replenish vitality and extend lifespan is unknown, as its discovery could trigger unrest among humans.
She never underestimated human desires.
While there was still time, Long Yangyang drank some rose syrup to restore her body to its best condition.
"Let's continue, and bring Second Brother back in one go."
The zombie virus is like cancer cells; if it is not eradicated once and for all, it will eventually resurface. Long Yangyang stood up and walked to Long Yuanxi's side.
The moment Fu Muyu's time freeze was lifted, he once again channeled life force and wood-type abilities into Long Yuanxi, working in conjunction with the unknown energy within Long Yuanxi's body to help him resolve the zombie virus.
"Cola! Sister Long, Second Brother Long's health bar is full." Qiu Ling was focused on Long Yuanxi's situation and notified Long Yangyang as soon as she found that his health bar was full.
Long Yangyang nodded. Just to be on the safe side, she continued to channel her life force and wood-type abilities for a while, only stopping after ensuring that the opponent's health bar remained unchanged.
"How is it?" After collecting Long Yuanxi's blood, Li Qin gave him a full-body checkup. "Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with him. His heartbeat and blood composition are all normal."
"The blood cells are also producing blood normally, so there should be no more signs of zombification."
Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and quietly waited for Long Yuanxi to wake up.
The waiting time seemed exceptionally long. After an unknown amount of time, Long Yuanxi slowly opened her eyes.
"Second Brother, you're finally awake!" Long Yangyang exclaimed in surprise. Although Li Qin had checked and said that all the indicators were normal, she was still worried because Long Yuanxi hadn't woken up.
"How are you feeling? Is there anything wrong with your body?"
Long Yuanxi shook his head. He felt full of power and didn't seem like someone who had just had surgery. "Very good, and you're at level nine."
As soon as she finished speaking, Long Yuanxi released the pressure of a level nine superhuman.
Having fought against level nine zombies before, Fu Muyu and Long Yangyang immediately sensed the other party's level.
"It's really level nine, and he's a level nine ability user with three abilities: Abyss, Transfer, and Healing!" Qiu Ling exclaimed in surprise.
