Chapter 20: Fever
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The crystal cores raised ordinary humans to awakened users, but the probability was extremely small. Prior to this, the individual needed to be extremely healthy; otherwise, he or she would not be able to bear the violent pains from the transformation.
Qin Jiaojiao’s body had always been weak, and Qin Yi had recalled her many failures. Searching far and wide, she heard a rumor that such a state could only wield healing abilities.
Healing abilities were extremely rare in the apocalypse. A probability of 1 out of a few thousand was already considered good.
That was considerably better than finding a healing type zombie, but Qin Yi still ultimately sourced for one. Qin Yi survived a narrow escape for the sake of the crystal core, which resulted in Qin Jiaojiao awakening with the healing abilities and being hailed by others as a goddess, gaining popularity and admiration.
But Qin Yi did not feel any envy and was instead happy for her. Qin Jiaojiao was still dissatisfied, however, and desired her ice and lightning abilities, hence teaming up with Doctor Lin to capture her.
No one knew the pain that Qin Yi had to endure. It was comparable to the Qing dynasty’s ten great tortures.
This time, she decided to destroy Qin Jiaojiao’s body and prevent her from gaining any abilities for the rest of her life, even the most gentle healing ability. Furthermore, Qin Jiaojiao’s body would become weaker. She wanted her to experience what it was like to be disliked and ignored.
No one inside the small gas station knew that the young lady had begun her path of revenge.
Qin Yi had thought of killing the entire Qin family immediately, but they had backers behind them that Qin Yi was unable to touch at the present.
The Qin family were not just simple millionaires in S-City. Qin Yi did not know much but was sure that they had powerful support, to the extent of being comparable to a powerful pillar of the country.
Qin Yi remembered that the Qin family had a fall out with that individual, suppressed in Z-Base, and had to rely on her, the illegitimate daughter, to fight for power and strive to obtain an important role in the base.
The fall out only occurred a year after the apocalypse. Qin Yi was currently not strong enough and could not take reckless actions.
Qin Yi calmly analyzed the situation. Even though she hated the Qin family to the bones, she would not make a move without the certainty of achieving complete success. After all, she had to stay alive and look for Doctor Lin.
Qin Yi was still paving her future route when she heard Zhou Yu’s scream.
“Ah Xue, what happened to you?”
Qin Yi frowned with her perfect eyebrows and opened her eyes. She coldly questioned Zhou Yu, “What happened?”
Upon seeing Qin Yi waking up, Zhou Yu calmed herself down and replied with a hint of worry in her voice, “It’s Ah Xue, she’s having a fever.”
After being furious about Qin Jiaojiao, Zhou Yu was prepared to vent on Qiu Chuxue. Who would have thought that Qiu Chuxue would ignore her shouts? Upon approaching her, she noticed that Qiu Chuxue’s face was red and cried out in panic.
It was not that Zhou Yu was worried about Qiu Chuxue. She was merely afraid that no one would find food or listen to her if Qiu Chuxue was sick.
Qin Yi noticed that Qiu Chuxue was burning up to the point of falling unconscious and knew that she was about to awaken her abilities.
Qin Yi knew that, but that did not mean that other people were aware of it. As Zhou Yu’s initial scream was loud, everyone in the gas station heard her.
The mother carrying the child heard and immediately screamed, “Get that person out! Those that break out into a fever are infected. They will transform into those man-eating monsters after waking up.”
Zhou Yu, who was initially against her, immediately retreated a few steps back upon hearing her words. She wanted so badly to stay away from Qiu Chuxue.
