Sickly Girl Doesn’t Die in Zombie Simulator 231

Chapter 231: Zombie Uprising

“Mmm…”

Inside the villa’s living room, Lin Jiayao sat at the table, Huayibai in her lap, a radio placed before them.

Static crackled from the radio, but Huayibai’s voice was still discernible.

“Okay, that’s good.” After listening to the message, Lin Jiayao nodded slightly and rubbed Huayibai’s head.

“Record that again and play it every hour. Remember to emphasize the information about the coastal areas…”

After having Huayibai make a few minor adjustments and emphasize the key points, and listening to her broadcast it again, Lin Jiayao turned off the noisy radio.

“How’s the situation in Japan?” Lin Jiayao lifted Huayibai, turned her around to face her, settled her on her lap, and asked softly.

“The Awakened who Mommy didn’t let come were worried and came over anyway. They saw the traces of the battle and decided to join Mika-nee in persuading the other survivors to leave Japan…”

“What about you and the Blue Serpent?” Lin Jiayao asked curiously.

“Snake-nee said we would scare the survivors, so she took me around the island to the Sea of Japan on the west coast to wait for Mika-nee.”

Huayibai spread her arms wide, gesturing a large circle.

“We’re also towing a super big water car. Snake-nee said we can use the water car to carry people, so we don’t have to put dirty humans on our backs.”

A water car… Based on Huayibai’s understanding of vehicles, anything that could carry her and wasn’t mycelium was a car.

She was probably referring to a large ship or something. The Blue Serpent was quite thoughtful.

As for the dirty humans…

It seemed the Blue Serpent wasn’t very fond of humans.

“Did it really say that? Does it hate humans?” Lin Jiayao asked, wanting to confirm if the Blue Serpent had any anti-human sentiments.

“Yes, Snake-nee said that anything without wings is dirty.” Huayibai nodded in confirmation.

“Don’t learn from it, okay?” Lin Jiayao pinched Huayibai’s cheek and admonished her.

So, the Blue Serpent didn’t hate humans, it hated anything without wings. The large wings Huayibai had simulated earlier to fly to her must have been the reason why the Blue Serpent was so close to Huayibai.

Lin Jiayao was worried that if Huayibai spent too much time with the Blue Serpent, her thinking would become non-human, her basic concepts distorted.

“No, Huayibai doesn’t like wings,” Huayibai retracted her arms, leaned forward, and snuggled against Lin Jiayao’s chest. “Huayibai only likes Mommy~”

That’s good. It seemed there was no need to worry too much about Huayibai’s thoughts; filial piety was her main focus.

Suddenly, the green bug’s vision in the upper right corner of Lin Jiayao’s view seemed to catch something. She looked up towards the living room door.

A moment later, a heavy thud echoed from outside, likely her sister landing from a height.

Although it wasn’t as loud as A4, Lin Jiayao still felt the ground tremble slightly.

“Holy shit!”

Before even seeing her sister, Lin Jiayao heard the classic Chinese curse.

Soon, the door was pushed open by her sister, who looked at Lin Jiayao and asked, “Yao! What’s that thing outside?”

“A piece of an A-rank corpse I brought back from Japan,” Lin Jiayao explained, then added, “By the way, Sister, can you break that piece into smaller pieces?”

It had to be small enough to fit into the Safehouse.

“Ah, I see, I can try… Wait, Yao, what’s up with the radio broadcast?”

Lin Xiwan instinctively answered her sister’s question, then remembered why she had come back.

“I was just about to tell you.”

Lin Jiayao nodded, stroking Huayibai’s back as she explained the uncertain movements of the seabed zombies to her sister.

With the large-scale invasion of seabed zombies, the original B-rank distribution map might be useless. New intelligence was crucial.

With more information, and the double confirmation from the [Crystal Detector], Lin Jiayao could more accurately map the zombies’ movements.

“I understand…” Lin Xiwan nodded and asked, “Do you need my help? If there’s a call for help…”

Lin Jiayao didn’t even need to ask; she knew her sister would definitely want to go.

“If there’s a call for help from nearby provinces, I’ll go with you.” Lin Jiayao said, looking at her sister.

Of course, Lin Jiayao wasn’t going purely for rescue. She also wanted to plant brain towers along the way.

These brain-computer towers were like power plants in Red Alert, the more the better. Lin Jiayao needed to develop a method for automated construction, and she already had some ideas.

The higher her mental power, the more mycelium blankets she could control simultaneously, just like Huayibai.

She could use the mycelium blankets to breed brain worms for remote control, letting the humanoid forms of the Blood Orb Mycelium control and command the Black Stem Fungus.

It was like the Zerg spreading creep and building bases in StarCraft. Although a bit sanity-dropping, it was theoretically feasible and extremely efficient.

She just needed to find some time to test it in the training ground.

Lin Jiayao took her sister to the street and stopped in front of the A-rank carapace piece that had elicited her sister’s “holy shit” earlier.

To avoid damaging the surrounding houses, Lin Xiwan carried the huge A-rank zombie carapace to the main street outside and began to attack it with all her might.

Perhaps because it wasn’t connected to a living body, the carapace lost its adaptive ability. After a few full-powered punches from Lin Xiwan, cracks appeared.

Finally, after almost half an hour of effort, Lin Xiwan shattered the ground and broke the carapace into five pieces.

“Yao… huff… I’m tired… I need a break…”

Lin Xiwan, panting, sat down next to Lin Jiayao and lay down. She was covered in sweat, her hands red and swollen.

She had been using the carapace as a punching bag, exhausting herself in the process.

Hearing her sister’s voice, Lin Jiayao exited the training ground.

She had just run a simulation in the training ground, putting her previous idea of expanding the brain-computer towers into practice, and found it feasible.

As long as the Black Stem Fungus could produce enough eggs, she could plant them on a large scale in the cities surrounding Yunnan Province.

The only pity was that the brain worm eggs, the main force for absorbing mental power, still had to be produced by Lin Jiayao herself, which limited the speed.

Hopefully, she could get some better evolutions from Goldie later.

Lin Jiayao temporarily put aside her thoughts about building brain towers, looked at the A-rank fragments in front of her, and then at her sister lying on the ground.

The A-rank carapace had been broken into five pieces, and the smallest piece could definitely fit into the Safehouse.

Lin Jiayao didn’t say anything to thank her sister, but simply used the bone spurs extending from her lower back to prop herself up and sit beside her sister.

Huayibai, because she was getting hotter and hotter in her arms, had long been put aside by Lin Jiayao to lie down by herself.

After sitting next to her sister, Lin Jiayao held her sister’s hands gently.

“Does it hurt?” Lin Jiayao asked softly.

“No.” Lin Xiwan shook her head, stubbornly refusing to admit it.

Lin Jiayao’s cold little hands couldn’t completely cover her sister’s slightly hot hands.

Mycelium extended from her palms, spreading a thin layer of blood-red mycelium blanket on her sister’s hands.

The tiny tentacles on the mycelium blanket secreted a little transparent liquid mixed with Lin Jiayao’s blood, covering her sister’s hands completely.

Wrapped in this liquid, Lin Xiwan’s hands quickly healed and soon returned to their state before attacking the carapace.

After doing all this, Lin Jiayao pressed her sister’s hands onto her sister’s lower abdomen and then withdrew her hands.

“Yao, your hands are so cold, what’s going on?” Lin Xiwan reached out, grabbed her sister’s hand, rubbed it, and asked.

Although her sister’s hands were still soft, delicate, and white like a baby’s, their temperature felt different from before.

Lin Xiwan could immediately sense even a slight change in her sister’s skin smoothness, let alone such an obvious change in temperature.

“It’s because of the evolution.” Lin Jiayao explained the permanent Divine Skin Armor to her sister.

“There’s such a function?” Lin Xiwan curiously pinched her sister’s palm and then pinched her sister’s waist, not feeling any B-rank armor under her skin.

“Yes, it only appears when the skin is broken.” Lin Jiayao nodded.

It was probably because the Divine Skin Armor between the muscles and skin insulated the temperature, which made her sister feel that her hands were cold.

“By the way, Sister,” Lin Jiayao thought of the Lv.2 Workbench and asked her sister, “What kind of weapon do you like? If we use this carapace to make weapons.”

“Weapons?”

“Gloves, swords, guns, anything is fine.” Lin Jiayao listed.

“I can’t use swords… As for gloves…” Lin Xiwan hesitated for a moment and said, “Maybe I can try?”

“Okay.” Lin Jiayao nodded.

If she could make a pair of handy gloves with A-rank blades for her sister, her armor penetration and the power of her punches would definitely increase to another level.

Next, she needed suitable materials. Just the A-rank carapace wasn’t enough. Without any buffer, her hands would be numbed with a single punch.

She would pay attention next time she logged in and encountered a suitable zombie. Skinning and bone removal, there would always be suitable materials.

She would also make a piece of equipment mainly for protection for Huayibai, so that Huayibai wouldn’t be defenseless against fire.

Just as Lin Jiayao was about to wake Huayibai up and ask her what kind of weapon shape she liked, Huayibai suddenly opened her eyes and turned to look at Lin Jiayao.

“What’s wrong? Huayibai.” Lin Jiayao looked at Huayibai, who had gotten up from the ground, and asked.

“Mommy, someone has accessed the radio frequency.” Huayibai stood up with her hands on the ground, walked to Lin Jiayao’s side, and said, “She said… eh… she said…”

After struggling for a moment, Huayibai drooped her head, blinked, and said, “Huayibai didn’t understand.”

Didn’t understand?

Was it a dialect?

“It’s okay, we’ll go back and listen to it on the radio,” Lin Jiayao looked at her sister, who immediately sat up after hearing about the radio, and asked, “Do you want to listen together?”

“Yes! Yes!” Lin Xiwan quickly got up, directly picked up her sister with one hand, lifted Huayibai by the waist of her skirt with her left hand, and rushed towards home.

After rushing back home, Lin Xiwan put her sister and the mosquito coil-eyed Huayibai on the sofa, and then turned on the radio.

“Buzz… buzz…”

After a brief tuning, Lin Xiwan tuned the channel to the Chongyu radio station. There was no music on the radio, but a hurried female voice came instead.

“My name is Tong Xin. Our camp is currently in Fuquan Mountain. Today, a fellow daoist returned injured from cultivation, suspected of encountering a B-rank zombie from elsewhere. Now I’m risking my life to talk to you on the city radio…”

“Buzz—”

The call was directly interrupted after a burst of electromagnetic interference noise.

The voice on the radio was Guizhou dialect, which had many similarities with Mandarin, so she could basically understand what the other party was saying.

Guizhou Province was above Yunnan Province, and a little further up was Chongyu City, a place Huayibai often flew over, a necessary route from Chongyu to Kun City.

Logically speaking, if there was a B-rank zombie in this place, Huayibai should have discovered it long ago, and Jiang Chun would have also marked it for her.

The appearance of a B-rank trace in this place was very likely a zombie that had “migrated” there for some reason.

Was it because of the influence of the seabed zombies?

The place wasn’t far away. Lin Jiayao glanced at her sister beside her and found that she was also looking at her.

They could go and take a look.

Anyway, Lin Jiayao was still waiting for the new creation to be built, and the travel time could also be used to log into A4 and Mask to continue moving their locations and obtain their evolutionary abilities.

And now, Lin Jiayao had enough mental power, she could completely simulate a flapping-wing insect with mycelium without relying on Huayibai – she only needed to eat one.

“Shall we go and take a look?” Lin Jiayao asked directly.

“No problem.” Lin Xiwan nodded.

Before that, Lin Jiayao had to get some flapping-wing insect corpses first.

The flapping-wing insect that the “Pokemon training master” called “Boss Luo” was riding before crashed in Kun City, and Lin Jiayao hadn’t dealt with the corpse yet, so she could just let the Building-Tree Guardian carry it over for her.

With flight, she could arrive in about one or two hours.

But what Lin Jiayao absolutely didn’t expect was that this radio call was just the beginning.

The zombie hordes in other areas had already rioted, and most of the originally peaceful camps were no longer habitable, and they didn’t have any means of radio communication.

A nationwide infectious riot, spreading from the coast to the inland, had already begun.

Most camps could only keep heading towards Kun City, the “oasis” in their imagination.
