ATFBETIBM Chapter 205.2

Bai Lixin looked at the almost overflowing “food” and saw Xia Chi eating with great relish. He asked tentatively, “Is it delicious?”

Xia Chi replied confidently, “Don’t worry, brother. Of course it’s delicious. Xia Chi’s creations are always exquisite.”

Bai Lixin hesitated for a second and said, “I suddenly remembered that I have something to discuss with Song Yuantian. Xia Chi, I’m not hungry. If you’re very hungry, you can have my share too.”

“Sure,” Xia Chi said, spooning a large mouthful into his mouth. “Go and come back soon, brother.”

Bai Lixin swallowed and grabbed two tubes of nutrient solution from the table and put them in his bag. “Xia Chi, remember to drink some nutrient solution to replenish your abilities after your meal. I’ve found that abilities don’t recover like physical strength does. They need to be replenished with nutrient solution.”

Xia Chi was too focused on enjoying his food and replied absentmindedly, “Mm-hmm.”

Bai Lixin took one last look at Xia Chi eating and quickly left.

He couldn’t stand staying in this place for even a minute.

In the Live broadcast room.

[World’s Most Delicious Food]

[Bai Lixin: Eat as much as you want, I’ll count it as my loss.]

[Huh, guys, I just realized that we can see what’s happening in their dorm room? Why isn’t it blocked off?]

[Maybe it’s because this isn’t their private time?]

[Then when is it their private time?]

[When they’re sleeping or taking a shower?]

[Oh, nsdd.]

[Xia Chi is a rare talent. His dark cuisine is perfect. He’s the only man who has made Bai Lixin turn green twice. I suddenly feel sorry for his future girlfriend, because she’ll be so miserable.]

[It could also be a miserable boyfriend.]

He was now on the fourth floor and could almost see the entire square below when he looks down.

Outside, it was gradually getting dark, and the place where goods are exchanged in the square was preparing to close. Those who haven’t had time to exchange their goods could only leave disappointedly.

Bai Lixin stood by the railing, watching from afar as those who are exchanging goods prepare to leave, suddenly feeling a little regretful.

If only his backpack could be opened now, he could use the stealth card to follow and observe the process of making these “solutions”.

This thought flashed through his mind, and suddenly he had a strange idea.

His mind control ability was not only limited to charm but also allowed him to overlook the surrounding situation from a god’s perspective.

As soon as this idea emerged, even Bai Lixinto himself was stunned.

He stared at the two figures leaving, furrowing his brows slightly. Why did he suddenly have this idea just now? Could it be that the crystal nucleus in his mind could sense his thoughts and respond to him?

The voices of the two figures grew fainter and fainter. Without hesitation, Bai Lixin closed his eyes and activated his ability.

In the next second, a red thread appeared in his pitch-black vision. At first, the thread moved aimlessly in front of him for a while.

Bai Lixin tried to control the red thread and with a thought, the red thread no longer swung randomly but obediently followed his movements.

Soon, the red thread moved towards the direction of the two people who had left.

The red thread moved extremely fast and caught up with them in an instant. At the moment of catching up, a clear image of the two figures appeared in Bai Lixinto’s pitch-black vision.

Wow, this ability was really useful.

The man with blonde hair turned to his companion and said, “We’ve had quite a harvest today.”

His companion replied, “Yes, Dr. Sang will definitely reward us later.”

Blonde hair said, “I heard that Dr. Sang got a transparent crystal nucleus a few days ago. I wonder who he’ll give this good thing to. I’m so envious.”

His companion said, “He’ll definitely exclude us first. That’s a transparent crystal nucleus, even if we can use it, it’s only for A-level ability users. It’s not related to us.”

Blonde hair suddenly looked around warily. Just as Bai Lixin thought the other party had discovered him, blonde hair turned to his companion and said mysteriously, “Speaking of which, do you know? I have a piece of inside information.”

His companion also lowered his voice unconsciously, “What is it?”

Blonde hair said, “The team that went to get the antigen was wiped out.”

Companion: “Fuck, are you serious? The S-level ability user Yuan, who has been through a hundred battles, is dead too?”

Blonde Hair: “I accidentally found out about it too. Yuan had a metal ability and specially created a super alloy guiding weapon to maximize his power.”

Companion: “I know, that weapon looked so cool. I was so envious.”

Blonde Hair: “Yesterday when I was delivering materials to Dr. Sang, I saw that weapon by chance. It’s a super alloy weapon that not even ten S-level zombies could break, but it was as worthless as scrap metal yesterday. If it wasn’t for seeing Yuan’s name on the weapon, I wouldn’t have believed it.”

Companion: “Are you sure you didn’t read it wrong? Yuan never leaves that weapon.”

“Hmph, my eyesight is sharp, how could I be wrong.” Blonde Hair glared at his companion. “Then, I overheard Dr. Sang on the phone, saying that only the weapon had returned and everyone else was sacrificed.”

Companion: “Damn, that was our most elite team of ability users. If they are all dead, what chance do we have of finding an antigen? Can’t we completely wipe out these damn zombies?”

Blonde Hair: “Sigh, it’s just something we have to get used to. I think our days are pretty good now. We’re only in our twenties, but we were born during the apocalypse. The only way to experience the world before doomsday is through videotapes. Who knows if what’s on the videotapes is real?”

“Is there really such a blue sky? Is there really such clear and safe seawater and lakes? Are there really so many cute animals and such large forests? How is that possible? They must be deceiving us.”

Companion: “But the people on the Ark keep saying they’ve seen it.”

Blonde Hair sneered, “That’s why they’re in so much pain. How can the feeling of having something and losing it be the same as never having it at all? We should just live one day at a time and enjoy our current cushy job.”

“We don’t have to go on missions,” Blonde Hair said as he sneaked a glance around and then reached into the bag in his hand, grabbing a large handful of crystals and stuffing them into the bag. “We can even take so many crystals on the way. They won’t come looking for us during missions, hehe.”

Seeing this, his companion deftly grabbed a handful too. It seemed like this wasn’t the first time they had done this.

Between their conversation, they arrived at a towering wall, and they stopped talking, even their expressions became serious.

There was a password on the wall, and Blonde Hair quickly entered it. The wall opened seamlessly from the middle in the next second, revealing a hidden world inside.

Bai Lixin quickly followed them in and remembered the password and the route they had taken along the way.

The surroundings were all white walls and glass display cases, with various zombie parts placed inside. It looked like a laboratory.

At the end of the hallway, there was another password-locked door.

The code door opened, revealing an elevator.

The elevator descended slowly as the button for the -8th floor was pressed, indicating the immense depth of the ark, which appeared to be far more complicated than it had initially seemed.

Soon the elevator arrived at the -8th floor, and the glass doors leading to a separate room opened, revealing a man wearing a white coat and protective gear. His gloves, stained with blood and latex, were fiddling with something.

Is that Dr. Sang?

Bai Lixin had a God’s-eye view, and he tried to manipulate his vision to see what was happening inside. He realized that he could move his line of sight in any direction with ease.

Looking inside, he saw that the man was conducting experiments on a piece of meat. He dropped an unknown liquid onto the meat, causing it to twist and distort rapidly before turning into a piece of rotten flesh within a few seconds.

“Another failure,” the man sighed, muttering to himself before tossing the decaying meat into a medical waste bin.

Once he had finished with the meat, the man turned around and noticed the two standing by the door. He washed the blood off his hands, then approached the glass door and opened it, asking, “When did you arrive?”

Blonde Hair smiled flatteringly and said, “Just now. Were you here alone?”

The man replied, “Ah, yes. Dr. Sang went to the 10th underground level. Did you need something?”

Blonde Hair handed him the crystals they had collected that day, saying, “We don’t really have anything specific in mind, just wanted to check in. Here are the crystals we collected today.”

The man removed his protective gear, revealing a pair of black eyes. “Not bad. We got a lot today. It seems that our ability users have killed a lot of zombies again.”

Blonde Hair nodded eagerly and said, “Yes, yes, with this kind of progress, maybe we won’t even need antigens. Our ability users can wipe out all the zombies by themselves.”

The man sneered and said, “Are you joking? Don’t forget, I’m also an ability user. If you’re so confident in us, then how about you apply to go to the front lines tomorrow? How many ability users have to die before we can obtain these crystals? Countless, right?”

Blonde Hair immediately turned pale and a pleading look appeared on his face. He quickly begged, “Dr. Wang, I was wrong. I spoke nonsense without thinking. Please forgive me this time!”

The man called “Dr. Wang” looked at him coldly and said, “Go. I’ll let you go this time, but keep your mouth shut.”

Blonde Hair didn’t wait for Dr. Wang to say anything else and immediately pulled his companion onto the elevator.

Bai Lixin did not leave with them. He wanted to take a look around before leaving. Earlier, Dr. Wang had mentioned that Dr. Sang was on the tenth floor, and Bai Lixin was curious to see what this character with such a high screen time was doing there.

Then, he controlled the god’s eye view and slowly descended his line of sight.

The ninth floor was pitch-black, and he took a deep breath and continued to descend slowly. He arrived at the tenth floor without difficulty.

If the eighth floor was a laboratory, the tenth floor was more like an operating room.

At the moment, the bright lights on the tenth floor shone not far from Bai Lixin’s god’s eye view, where there was an operating table.

A man was lying on the operating table, and in front of him, a man in a white coat was working with his head down.

As he looked at the doctor’s back, Bai Lixin’s heart trembled, and he felt a sense of recognition.

That back, why did it look so familiar?

Could it be him?

With a sense of urgency in his heart, Bai Lixin quickly manipulated the god’s eye view to move closer to the operating table.

The man lying on the bed was not unfamiliar; it was Billy, the one who had harassed him during the day.

Billy had a surgical scar on his chest, and at the moment, the doctor was stitching up the wound with great skill. The stitches were neatly lined up on the wound like a delicate work of a compulsive perfectionist.

The man’s hands were also beautiful. Even through the latex gloves, you could clearly see the man’s well-defined knuckles and long, slender fingers.

The fair hand moved quickly in mid-air and quickly finished stitching up Billy’s wound. After cutting off the excess thread, the man patted Billy’s cheek.

Billy, who had been sleeping all along, immediately opened his eyes. He looked a little dazed at first, but then respectfully looked up at the man above him and said, “Dr. Sang!”

The man hummed softly and said, “Get up. The surgery was successful, and now it’s time for observation. If there is no rejection, it means it’s accepted.”

The familiar and pleasant male voice almost took Bai Lixin’s breath away.

Billy ecstatically rubbed his chest and gratefully looked at the man. “Thank you, Dr. Sang,” he said.

“Don’t thank me, it’s just good luck,” the man replied ruthlessly. “I wouldn’t have chosen you if your compatibility with Yuan wasn’t the best.”

Billy’s face changed slightly, and he lowered his head to grit his teeth in frustration before quickly smiling again.

Dr. Sang was right; this was what he deserved. So what if he didn’t have him in mind? Yuan’s heart, Yuan’s ability, and Yuan’s powerful strength all belonged to him now!

His ambition was growing like wild grass on his face, but the man poured cold water on him again. “Don’t get too excited. If Yuan’s heart rejects you, you won’t be able to inherit his strength.”

Heart, strength, Yuan…

Yuan was the S-class ability user Blonde Hair spoke of just now. It seems the man transplanted Yuan’s heart into Billy, hoping that Billy could inherit his abilities.

“The organization did not give up after the first antigen acquisition plan failed. They will choose you first once you can adapt to Yuan’s strength,” the man said, always looking down as he spoke.

Bai Lixin had to press down on his bird’s-eye view to see his face clearly.

Just as his gaze was about to approach the man’s face, the man suddenly raised his head. His pair of pitch-black eyes, with no visible pupils, suddenly met Bai Lixin’s gaze across the void.

A powerful sense of intimidation instantly penetrated Bai Lixin’s eyes through the man’s deep gaze and then into his brain.

—–“You are so brave. Let me see which little white mouse is coming to steal from me.”

Bai Lixin’s mind was buzzing, as the man’s voice echoed in his head.

—-“I found you, little mouse, and I’ve caught your tail.”

In the next second, Bai Lixin’s ability suddenly stirred, and his consciousness was instantly thrown out of the ten-story underground.
