Chapter 438: Chapter 438 The Origin of the Zombie Virus
Although Han Jiajia was extremely angry, she was now completely unable to speak.
âWhat kind of crappy base is this, where even a mere healer carries such an air of importance? Back in the B city base, who would have dared to give her such attitude?â
However, she didnât feel the slightest guilt for having driven away a senior healer for Han Jinâs sake; she just felt as though they, brother and sister, were being bullied.
In the end, it was Sun Manhui from next door who helped Han Jiajia up. Sun Manhui, clad in sickbay attire, continued to cough non-stop now that the ice that had encased her had melted, soaking her clothes completely.
She detested the Ice-Element
Ability User from earlier today with a burning passion, and equally loathed this base.
Liang Jiuhui and Wei Junhao left after visiting Han Jin.
The healer treating Han Jin was another arrangement by Xu Mingzhi. After finding out that Lin Tianhui had been driven away, Xu Mingzhi simply assigned another healer. After all, both he and Yao Yi had already examined Han Jinâs injuries; aside from looking ghastly, there really wasnât much harm done. It would be best to let him heal here slowlyâŠ
Out on the training field, the Wind Element and Power Element trainees had been particularly proud these past couple of days, even feeling as if they started to bring wind with them while running during training.
As soon as the trainees returned to the training field, they excitedly gazed at the two instructors, feeling immensely lucky to have members of the Heart Talk Team as their instructors, and such formidable ones at that.
âInstructor Xue, we havenât run our 20 laps today yet,â
one Wind Element trainee said with shining eyes as he looked at Xue Wanyi.
âItâs already afternoon. Do you still want to make them up?â
âYes!â
Everyone answered in unison.
Xue Wanyi was somewhat surprised. Previously, these people would have a deathly expression upon hearing about the 20 laps, so why the change of heart today?
But this wasnât a bad thing at all, and Xue Wanyi was of course wholeheartedly supportive.
âSo Instructor Xue really isnât a sadist after all,â
a Wind Element trainee said while running.
In the past, the nickname the trainees had secretly given to Xue Wanyi was âsadistâ, because they would return exhausted each day, drained of both their special abilities and physical strength, thus complaints were naturally not in short supply.
Only in the last two days, after witnessing the amazing capabilities of the Heart Talk Team and hearing the insights shared by the team captain, did they realize that Instructor Xue had been training them using the methods of the Heart Talk Team all along!
âWe misunderstood Instructor Xue before,â
âYeah, I can actually feel myself improving every day,â
âRight! The statistician from the administration department even mentioned that our Wind Elementâs advancement speed is much higher than that of other elements,â
âReally? Why didnât you say so earlier?â
Several trainees complained to one another while running, realizing that it was indeed the case.
Then what reason did they have to not work hard, to complain?
Instructor Xue was doing this for their own good!
However, at this moment, Xue Wanyi had been called to the administration buildingâs conference room by Guan Hong.
Although Xue Wanyi didnât know what Liang Jiuhui wanted with him, he did not immediately ask upon arrival but instead sat down at Liang Jiuhuiâs gesture.
In fact, Liang Jiuhui had also asked Xu Shi to invite Lu Hao and Su Jin because Xue Wanyi was a member of the Heart Talk Team. He couldnât simply bypass the two, but Lu Hao declined the invitation upon knowing Liang Jiuhuiâs intentions. They were all aware of Xue Wanyiâs situation; if there were any clues to be given, one could simply ask Xue Wanyi directly without having to be overly considerate of them.
In the conference room, Wei Junhao first introduced himself and explained the purpose of seeking out Xue Wanyi on behalf of Liang Jiuhui.
âYou want to know about the Y province matter?â
Xue Wanyi asked.
Wei Junhao nodded and said,
âThatâs right, the search for the origin of the Zombie Virus has already started in B city. Currently, all the clues we have found domestically point to Y province. Moreover, the information from abroad also indicates that the origins theyâve discovered are in the far south and the far north, so we first want to understand what connection these three places have,â said Xue Wanyi.
âHave any of you heard about the news of hikers going missing on Mount M?â
Xue Wanyi suddenly asked.
Wei Junhao shook his head upon hearing this. Mount M?
âI donât know if I was the first person to encounter a zombie, but I indeed encountered one about a month before the apocalypse broke out.â
Xue Wanyiâs words surprised everyone present.
A month before the apocalypse began?
There were zombies at that time?
Xue Wanyi then talked about the people and events he encountered while climbing Mount M in Y province, including how he was almost treated as a mentally ill person because he didnât know about zombies.
âAre you saying that when you reached the peak of Mount M, one of your companions turned into a zombie?â
Wei Junhao asked seriously.
Xue Wanyi nodded, confirming that they had indeed reached the summit at that time.
âDo you still remember the date?â
Wei Junhao asked while writing something on a piece of paper.
âOf course, I remember. It was June 7th, peak summer season. I couldnât forget it because I was later treated as a suspect and locked up in the station. It was only because there was no evidence that I was transferred and continued to be detained in H city, where I was fortunate enough to meet Captain Lu Hao,â replied Xue Wanyi, who still felt overwhelmed by the memories of his experience every time it was brought up.
Looking at the three names written on the paperâY provinceâs Mount M, the far south, the far northâWei Junhao pondered.
âThese three places do share something in common,â Liang Jiuhui commented.
âTheyâre covered with snow and ice all year round, very cold, and at high altitudes,â was Wei Junhaoâs response.
Liang Jiuhui nodded, agreeing that this commonality was easy to see, but it was still unclear why the Zombie Virus appeared in these three places.
After Xue Wanyi finished sharing his experience and seeing that the other two had no further business, he returned to the training field.
At this moment, the traineesâ 20 laps were still ongoing. He looked up at the gray, hazy sky and suddenly felt as if he was in a different world.
A few months ago, he was a trekker traversing the great landscapes of the motherland, and now he was an instructor for Special Ability Users wielding Wind Element Abilities in the apocalypse.
Life⊠truly changes in the blink of an eye!

One of the reasons Su Jin and Lu Hao didnât agree to go to Liang Jiuhuiâs place was that they were indeed very busy.
The wheat, rice, and other crops in the space had ripened another batch, and they needed to rest a bit before starting the harvest.
Moreover, almost a whole day had passed since the competition commenced, and none of the participants had eaten lunch yet, which worried Lin Yunguo in the space terribly.
So with a wave of her hand, Su Jin cleared out half the spaceâs shelves of food, neatly arranging them on the dining table in the villa.
Ever since Lian Jiyue joined the team, the amount of food the team ate had significantly increased because Lian Jiyue alone could finish a pot of stewed meat. Sometimes, Mao Qiqi would even ask Su Jin for more food to prepare something special for Lian Jiyue, who lived on the top floor.
However, Su Jin didnât mind at all. With the abundant food in the space, the more Lian Jiyue ate, the happier Lin Yunguo was, as it helped reduce the number of poultry and livestock in the space slightly.
Li Xiuying always complained that one day the space would be overtaken by chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, and cows.
