Starting in The Boys to Become the Ultimate Lifeform.

99. Chapter 99: This Isn't a Suggestion, It's a Notification

[Fusion Condition: Help An Seon-yeong resolve the knot in her heart]

[After Fusion, the Player will gain the ability to conceive life once. However, the Player needs to sacrifice themselves, and the new life conceived will not inherit the Player's memory and ability. At the same time, the Player's obsession will affect the birth of the new life. The stronger the Player's physique, the higher the growth potential of the new life.]

In Xia Shang's opinion, this innate ability was somewhat like a phoenix's rebirth, but the inability to inherit memory was a significant drawback.

Furthermore, the new life conceived would also be unable to inherit his ability.

"It's useless," Xia Shang said softly.

Unless he could resolve these two drawbacks, he wouldn't consider fusing this ability for now.

Fortunately, the Fantasy World wouldn't disappear because of his exit. As long as he paid Fantasy Value again, he could re-enter the Fantasy World. It was just that the flow of time in the Fantasy World was exactly opposite to that of the Main World.

After leaving the Room.

Xia Shang came to the First Floor Lobby of the Apartment. He tentatively used Analyze on Cha Hyun-soo's ability, but unfortunately, it didn't succeed. This guy's mutation hadn't finished, and his ability was still developing.

Just then, a whistle sounded from the Isolation Room area. When the whistle blew, it meant an emergency situation had occurred.

"What happened?" Xia Shang followed behind the crowd and rushed towards the Isolation Room.

The one who blew the whistle was Kim Seok-hyun's Wife. She stood before a monster corpse with bloody hands. The monster was covered all over in green long hair.

And not far from the monster, there was another monster corpse.

From the looks of it, Kim Seok-hyeon and Park Yoo-ri, who were locked in the Isolation Room, couldn't last fifteen days.

"It seems we need molotov cocktails," Lee Eun-hyuk said with a frown, looking at the long-haired monster's corpse before him.

From the traces of destruction around, it wasn't hard to see that before they died, the two monsters must have engaged in a rather brutal fight. Ultimately, the long-haired monster that Kim Seok-hyeon turned into won.

His Wife witnessed this scene firsthand. Then, when the long-haired monster approached her, she stabbed it in the heart with a fruit knife.

These two monsters were in the Golden Hour. After vital parts were damaged, they were unable to recover.

Looking at the woman who had personally stabbed her husband to death, she was squatting on the ground, somewhat broken down. Trembling, she took out a cigarette from her pocket and put it in her mouth. But after only a couple of puffs, she started covering her face and weeping bitterly.

"Let's deal with these corpses," Lee Eun-hyuk instructed two people, having them drag the corpses to the Underground Parking Garage to burn them.

At this moment, Seo Yi-kyung came out carrying a fire axe. Her husband was once a virus researcher in a Hospital. Not long ago, she learned that the Hospital her husband was in had caught fire, and this fire burned very strangely. It didn't look like an accident but rather seemed to have ignited from within.

Logically speaking, once a fire occurred, it must be taken over by firefighters. But by the time she arrived, the scene had already been completely sealed off.

After this incident, she resigned from her job as a firefighter and moved to Green Home Apartment.

But the recent outbreak of the infection event made her think of her husband. Perhaps, there existed some close connection between these two events.

So she walked into the Electrical Room and pressed the switch to open the Iron Door.

"What do you think you're doing?" Lee Eun-hyuk blocked her path and demanded.

"Do you know you're acting on your own authority?"

Seo Yi-kyung ignored him. Instead, she came to the front of the Iron Door, raised the axe in her hand, and wanted to smash open the iron chain locking the Iron Door.

"If you don't stop acting, I'll have to drive you away." "Okay, I wanted to leave anyway."

After the Iron Door was smashed open, everyone watched as she drove away on the motorcycle parked at the Apartment entrance.

...

Subsequently, Seo Yi-kyung drove the motorcycle to her husband's workplace. In his studio, she found a tablet. The tablet's password was the date they met.

After unlocking the tablet, she searched through folders and found a file named ke lu ke lu.

She just didn't notice that the camera in the corner of the Room was flashing red light.

The content of the first half was exactly the same as what Cha Hyun-soo saw. Furthermore, there was also content in the latter half of the file.

"I was also hunted by that thing. Ten days have passed since the symptoms of nosebleeds and fainting appeared. Those things talked to me and threw out questions, but I'm still resisting. Even if I become an experimental subject, I still want to solve this phenomenon."

"Fifteen days. Once fifteen days pass, it will stabilize. Five more days. If I can last five more days, I can become a Special Infected."

"This is the only method, and the last hope to end this nightmare-like disaster."

After Seo Yi-kyung finished reading these, just as she was about to look up, she found that several soldiers had appeared in front of her. They raised the guns in their hands and pointed the muzzles at Seo Yi-kyung's head.

Afterwards, she was hung in mid-air by the soldiers from the Army. Only until she provided information about the Apartment residents was she let down.

On the other side.

After Seo Yi-kyung left, Lee Eun-hyuk assigned tasks to everyone and formulated a set of survival rules.

First, before taking action, the team must ensure there are two or more people, and once an anomalous situation is discovered, they need to immediately report to him. Second, in order to slow down the consumption of food, only one meal can be provided per person per day. Third, every night from now on, everyone needs to gather on the First Floor and measure body temperature to ensure no one is infected.

Fourth, if someone becomes an infected, then they need to spend the night in the Isolation Room.

This set of rules he formulated caused dissatisfaction among many people, but it was only just complaining. However, no one stood up to oppose Lee Eun-hyuk.

"If the infected could maintain sanity, there would be no need to lock them in the Isolation Room, right?" Ahn Gil-seop, wearing reading glasses, said on behalf of Cha Hyun-soo.

"No. The infected ultimately still have the possibility of mutation. After Cha Hyun-soo completes the mission, he must return to the Isolation Room." Lee Eun-hyuk's tone was extremely cold, as if there was no such thing as human sentiment or social niceties in his eyes.

"You bastard, how can you not have any human warmth at all?" Yoon Ji-su muttered softly.

"It's okay. For everyone's safety, I can accept it," Cha Hyun-soo smiled.

At this moment, the always silent Xia Shang suddenly spoke up. "Since that's the case, how about I team up with Cha Hyun-soo?"

"You are a Doctor, you belong to the support staff. Going out to look for supplies is too dangerous."

Lee Eun-hyuk didn't consent.

"This isn't a suggestion, it's a notification." Xia Shang adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, then threw the soda can he had crushed into a ball in his hand in front of Lee Eun-hyuk.

The next day, Xia Shang and Cha Hyun-soo came to the Underground Parking Garage together. And, under his deliberate guidance, they quickly found the Speedy Monster wandering in the garage.
