The Villainess Is Always Pretending to Be the Virgin Mary

[The current zombie virus is still in its infancy, and soon, these weapons will be unable to resist their attacks.]

As soon as the system spoke, the metal disc had been lifted completely. Chi Ying glanced inside, and there was a ladder leading directly to the bottom.

Gu Chi looked at the crowd and motioned for them to go in first.

Chi Ying still held two crosses in her hand. She struggled for a few seconds, and decided to go on without them.

She walked over, looked at the densely packed zombies around her, and at the newly carved crosses in her hand, and was speechless for a moment.

There were so many… Which ones should she give the cross to?

Her movements were watched by others. 

Song Shi frowned. What was this woman up to?

As for Mu Yu and the others who had seen Chi Ying spitting tears for the zombies before, their faces were expressionless, especially Gu Chi. Watching Chi Ying running toward those zombies, he felt extremely calm.

Chi Ying lingered for a few seconds, and finally handed the only two crosses in her hand to the two “lucky guys” who had the ugliest death.

Before leaving, she kindly spared them a few seconds.

“Amitabha……”

The corner of Gu Chi’s lips twitched.

What kind of religious idiot was she?

And Lu Yunfei sighed again. Sure enough, no matter how many times he saw that girl’s behavior, she was always so weird.

[The value of the Virgin Mary is increased by five, and the points are increased by five hundred. Your current accumulated points are 1000. The basic medicines are unlocked.]

Chi Ying didn’t dare to delay for too long, she said a few words of prayers, and then quickly left the two “lucky guys”.

Song Shi frowned, and snorted very quietly.

What an idiot, she was praying for those zombies.

Gu Chi looked at Chi Ying with complicated eyes.

Fortunately, Chi Ying didn’t meet his gaze, otherwise she would definitely understand what “caring for the mentally retarded person” meant.

“Don’t be dazed, go in quickly,” Gu Chi urged them.

After everyone went in, the metal door slowly closed.

“Yo, Captain Gu?” A young man in a lab coat came out with a frivolous smile on his face.

“Hello,” Gu Chi looked at the man, and just greeted him politely, obviously he didn’t know him before.

Chi Ying felt a little strange.

Why did this person know Gu Chi, but Gu Chi didn’t know him?

The system replied: [The voice mentioned just now that Gu Chi is the senior commander of the research institute. Here, almost everyone knows him.]

Chi Ying: Senior Commander… Is he very powerful?

[Yes, there are a total of eight senior commanders in the two most core research institutes of the Human Alliance… However, Gu Chi’s strength lies in the fact that he did not have any medical and biological research experience.]

Chi Yings eyes went wide.

Oh sh*t!

[Do you understand? He was able to become a commander entirely because of his talent and the value he brought to the research institute from outside exploration.]

[This is an honor that even the male lead Ye Wuhan did not have.]

Chi Ying: Ah, I heard from Lu Yunfei that Ye Wuhan is also a sixth-level ability holder.

[Yes, Ye Wuhan is also a Senior Commander, but he is from another research institute.]

Just as he was talking, the man over there squinted at Gu Chi and spoke, “Are you here to deliver supplies for us?” The man looked contemptuous.

Gu Chi paused and looked up at him, “Well, I came here after receiving the message.”

“Hey, what kind of commander is this, it turns out he is a delivery guy…”

“Hey, what are you talking about?!” Lu Yunfei couldn’t bear it, and said directly.

“Xiao Ren, what are you talking about?!” Another person wearing a protective mask came out from behind.

The man took off his mask.  He was an old man.

The man he called Xiao Ren pursed his lips, not convinced, “In the first place, I thought he has great skills and is a good martial artist.  But I don’t think there is anything special about him, how can he be a commander?”

Chi Ying asked the system, “This man is so proud, could he be stronger than Gu Chi?”

[How is that possible?]

Chi Ying: “Then why?”

[There are many pink eye diseases (envious people) in this world…]

Chi Ying was silent.

Lu Yunfei wanted to say something, but Gu Chi stopped him lightly. The rest of the team members also took a deep breath.

“Give the supplies to them. We have to continue on our way. It shouldn’t take too long.”

On the contrary, the old man was a little embarrassed and said, “Stay and eat something. It’s not convenient for you to travel. We still guarantee the basic electricity here, so I can cook you a hot meal.”

Just as Gu Chi was about to refuse, the old man had already ordered the people inside to prepare food. He had no choice but to swallow the words of refusal silently.

He tilted his head and looked at Mu Yu, “Mu Yu, give them the supplies.”

Mu Yu kept a cold face, but still obeyed his order, and took out the water and food they got from the supermarket the previous night from her space.

“Is there any progress in the research institute?” Gu Chi asked.

The old man sighed, “Not yet. The cause of the zombie virus has not been found, and it is difficult to make a specific medicine at present. The only thing that we have made some progress on is the research on the crystal core.”

“What about it?”

“Well, from the outbreak of the zombie virus to the present, the initial zombie samples we collected, compared with the current ones, can store at least 30% less energy!”

Gu Chi frowned, “Is it even 30%…My team members and I, our powers are also constantly increasing, so we don’t see the changes in the zombies’ strength.”

Boom!

As he said that, the round metal door opened again. The ones who came in this time were a few people carrying the bodies of zombies, all wearing protective clothing.

The old man introduced, “They are usually responsible for taking samples from outside. The dead zombies at the door are the best subjects for our experiments. Occasionally, when we are lucky, we can pick up a few who still show vital signs.”

That seemed to be commonplace to Gu Chi and the others, and after a glance, they calmly looked away.

No one noticed that among the people carrying the zombie’s body, one of them had a slightly stiff gait, and his movements were a little slow.

“We kill the same number of zombies, but the energy consumed is almost twice as much as usual!” The old man sighed.
