Unfathomable Doomsday Chapter 12

12 – Close Your Eyes Before It’s Dark

The sample of the Blacklight Virus once again fell into Lu Qiu’s hands.

Because this time he didn’t had the beginner's reward, he had to use 10,000 Despair Points in this exchange …

That was the lives of 10,000 people.

Lu Qiu didn’t feel like it wasn’t worth it, the price-value ratio of that virus was really high.

At present, because of Lu Qiu spreading the Blacklight Virus, it had brought him in close to 10,000 Despair Points.

Later, it’ll bring Lu Qiu in even more Despair Points

As long as he breaks through the fence

The crow on Lu Qiu’s finger tilted its head, its eyes glowed red as it looked at its master, it didn’t know what he was planning.

The container in Lu Qiu’s hand came with an injection function, he p.r.i.c.ked the crow with a needle that was longer than its body without any hesitation.

Nearly 400mL of undiluted Blaklight Virus was pushed into the crows body.

When the virus infected a life form, it would first kill it – the crow fell to the ground after being injected with the virus, announcing its death.

But what happened next … left Lu Qiu bewildered

“What’s a creative interface?” Lu Qiu was still looking forward to this crow turning into a terrifying monster and for it to topple the fence, but the crow only rigidly fell on the ground without any other reaction.

That is, one could define the type of monster that this crow would turn into?

Battle prowess and properties could be changed?

Lu Qiu found the system more and more surprising as well as fascinating.

The previous time, because The Hunter wasn’t within a distance of 10m from Lu Qiu, therefore, the virus caused a random evolution.

Now, Lu Qiu could shape the monster on his own …

An unparalleled monster! Lu Qiu squatted down, looked at the twitching crow lying on the ground, it seemed to be in pain.

Right away, … you’ll become stronger in my hands!

“Access the genetic modification interface.”

Under Lu Qiu’s order, his originally scarlet pupils flashed with a trace of an indistinct data flow – within Lu Qiu’s line of sight, except for the crow, everything became scarlet.

The interfaces for holographic projections emerged from several body tissues of the crow, such as wings, beak, claws, feathers, as well as plenty of its internal organs.

Amidst the crow’s brain, a genetic helix appeared in front of Lu Qiu’s eyes.

Those were precisely the crows genes, large amounts of crimson spider-like structures were entrenched next to the genetic helix, those were the genes of the Blacklight Virus – as long as Lu Qiu selected the fission and fusion pattern, then those berserk genes would be just like spiders pouncing onto pray and completely reorganize the crow’s genes.1

The most glaring symbol of the later evolution of the infected by the Blacklight Virus was precisely their enlargement.

Which of the high-level infected in Prototype didn’t had large bodies? Let alone Brawler Hunter and Juggernaut cla.s.s, just the infected with the largest threat, Goliath, was as high as a building.2

“It can’t be smaller?”

Lu Qiu sighed with some regret.

He was a Vampire, so he didn’t like to do things in a transparent way, but rather slowly torture and kill in the shadows – that was how Lu Qiu liked to do things the most.

The smaller the crow’s size, the easier could it infect others.

After all, as long as the virus breaks out, then the fence would lose its purpose and crumble.

“That is to say, you still have other features? How do I get the other features? Do I exchange them with you?”

The virus’ variability ensured that the evolution wasn’t singular, with the infected possessing a variety of merits, being responsible for a variety of tasks.

Well, Lu Qiu had never read about genes, therefore, the exchange wasn’t possible.

“How can I get it?”

There was actually something that the system didn’t knew about?

No matter what, first let’s see if the crow infected by the entire sample of Blacklight Virus can get rid of the fence.

“Let’s have some proper fun tonight, monster.”

Lu Qiu threw down the building the twitching body of the crow.

Just when the crow’s body was about hit the ground … scarlet tentacle-like muscle tissue completely enclosed it.

A crimson radiance emitted from the blood flowing in the muscle tissue, the Blacklight Virus gathered in the crow’s body completely changed it into a monster.

Lu Qiu stood on the hospital’s roof, down below he saw a pitch-black life form as tall as a two storey building …

“Go on, go have a magnificent scarlet feast.”

Lu Qiu’s laughter rang along with the sharp roar of the monster, echoing throughout the night.

In the cold night, a veteran holding an automatic rifle stood on the steel cast fence, looked at the city shrouded by darkness down below while holding a cigarette in his mouth.

He was loading his magazine, one bullet at a time, preparing a sufficient amount ammunition for when he enters into battle.

Civilians were gathered below the fence, lamp lights shrouding those confused civilians in order to prevent some of the monster from mixing in.

As long as the civilians pa.s.sed the inspection and it was confirmed that they didn’t carry the virus, then they could leave this h.e.l.l.

Therefore, at the moment, the scene was still a bit orderly.

Just yesterday, he city was very normal, everyone living in peace and working happily … but today, everything had changed.

The veterans didn’t go too deep into the city, the orders from above were precisely to keep watch over the fence.

He didn’t knew what kind of monsters were actually in the city, so that everyone would be so fearful or even crazy.

Zombies? He also saw movies like Resident Evil …

He puffed out a smoke ring.

Even if it were zombies from Resident Evil, there wouldn’t be much to it – he held his rifle firmly, swept his gaze around, noting quite a few artillery batteries built above the steel fence.3

Those zombies that were only capable of movement, with the firepower network of the troops in the surroundings of the city, they had the ability to intercept those slow mowing zombies.

The so-called zombies were just moving targets, shooting them in the head would be the end of them.

Not to mention that those at the top seemed to have sent a Daren.

That’s why he wasn’t afraid, he also loved those works like Resident Evil, resulting in him wanting to personally go deep into the city and take a good look at those zombies.

Only …

The next moment, the surroundings of the fence’s security station originally shrouded by the lamp lights, making it look as if it was daytime, suddenly became shrouded by darkness.

Did the lights … go out?

No, the strong lamp light had newer went out before.

Then … why would it suddenly become so dark?

Just when the veteran looked up at the sky, the cigarette in his mouth involuntarily fell to the ground.

Mother … mother … motherf.u.c.ker!!!

Was this the so-called slow zombie!?

Were the zombies in Resident Evil ever so big?! And it still could … fly?

That creature … was really mowing quickly in the sky, charging at the fence.

When the veteran saw the enormous pitch-black monster, his legs became unsteady and he fell on the ground.

“Roaaaaaaaaaar!!!”

The sharp roar resounded through the sky.

Followed by the screams of the crowd of people, the scene immediately became utterly chaotic.

The fear let humans lose their rationale.

Amidst the sky, a monster with a wingspan close to 30m charged at the fence, its body was covered with a nauseating muscle tissue and circulating blood emitting scarlet radiance, it had six superposition eyes on its forehead emitting berserk radiances!4

“Shoot! Shoot! Aim at the target! Hurry up! Immediately!”

Although the commanding officer was intimidated and his voice trembled somewhat because of the the monster that suddenly appeared, but he still send out orders instinctively.

The six artillery batteries built above the fence took aim at the monster in the sky – accompanied by the mechanical whirling of noises, a metal storm engulfed the monster in the sky.

That’s a mutant crow!

“What are these monsters in the end?!”

“Shut your trap! Just pull your trigger!”

The stationed soldiers at the fence and in the surroundings, all of them pulled their triggers aiming at the sky – for a moment, the sound of bullets being madly shot rang through the entire barracks!

“There is no use!” “It doesn’t stops! Hey … the monster doesn’t stops!” “Quickly, run!”

The bullets were apparently unable to break through the surface of the crow mutant’s scarlet muscle tissue.

The crow mutant gave a strange and piercing roar and dived down towards the fence, at this point, the soldiers didn’t care about any orders! In the end, what mattered was one’s own life!

The majority chose to run away.

But … was it of any use?

“Help!” “Pull back!”

The crow mutant’s enormous claws struck heavily at the fence, caving the surface of the fence in.

“Roaaaaaaaaaar!!”

Following the sharp roar – after the life form changed by the virus, its wings became very sharp – when it waved its wings, the humans on the fence trying to escape, their bodies were effortlessly teared into shreds!

Among the fearful human screams … there were still people who’s voices didn’t contain fear and they didn’t loose their rationale.

“Go to h.e.l.l!” Near the crow mutant’s landing spot, there was an artillery battery erected, the soldiers operating it aimed at the monster, without any hesitation, poured down a torrent of ammunition!

Blood was being splashed all over the fence as the crow mutant once again waved its wings, cutting the whole artillery battery cast in steel in half.

In front of such monsters, human lives were so weak!

A short moment after the arrival of this monster, the extremely safe edge of the city was turned into h.e.l.l.
