Chapter 986: Not a Coincidence
Ling Feng shielded Chen Yuhe with one arm: "Don’t be afraid, I’m here!"
After saying this, he took out the Fire Five Elements Fruit again and smashed it onto the zombie.
Fierce flames blazed up, and a shrill scream immediately traveled far away!
Meanwhile, the people outside saw what was happening at the entrance.
These people had followed Chen Yuhe here, after all, she was the company’s boss, and if she was here, how could they not follow?
Ling Feng carried Chen Yuhe and jumped out of the window, bringing her to the crowd, and then loudly said to them: "Don’t panic, this thing isn’t very lethal, just keep your distance from it!"
"Mr. Ling, how can such things be here?" Chen Mo asked cautiously.
"I’m not sure either, but don’t worry, we’ll find out what’s going on!"
Ling Feng said, scanning the surroundings with Divine Sense, not finding any more traces of zombies.
Just then his phone rang, and seeing it was Lin Xue calling, Ling Feng answered: "What’s the matter?"
"Where are you? Come to Longyuan quickly, there’s been an incident!" Lin Xue said urgently.
Hearing her anxious tone, Ling Feng’s heart sank, and he quickly asked: "What happened?"
"There’s a zombie outbreak in a village west of the city; a few people were bitten, the whole village is in chaos!" Lin Xue explained.
"..."
Ling Feng’s eyebrows furrowed tightly!
It turned out this wasn’t an isolated incident; similar things were happening elsewhere!
So he immediately said: "There were also two here at the hot springs, I burned them with fire. Tell them fire works, I’m heading to Longyuan now!"
"Okay, got it!"
Lin Xue didn’t seem surprised; it seems she was already aware that zombies had appeared in several places!
After hanging up, Ling Feng turned back to look at Chen Yuhe: "I have to go."
Chen Yuhe nodded: "Let Chen Mo take you!"
"Are you not coming with me?" Ling Feng asked.
"I need to stay here, to calm everyone down!"
Chen Yuhe bit her lip, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes: "Could this be happening everywhere?"
"We’re not sure yet, but don’t worry, there were only two here and I’ve taken care of them, plus there are none left in the surroundings!"
Ling Feng said loudly, just to be on the safe side, he added: "Even if such things appear again later, remember to use fire to fight them!"
"Okay, I’ll arrange for people to be prepared."
Chen Yuhe nodded, then said to Chen Mo: "Mo, please take Ling Feng!"
"Okay."
Chen Mo, who had been worldly and composed, nodded her head calmly, the zombies being already dealt with didn’t frighten her much.
Ling Feng didn’t linger, he followed her into the car.
On the way to Longyuan, he called Chen Ping to inquire about the situation in the village.
Chen Ping told him that the zombies in the village had been dealt with, but the injured people needed emergency treatment, so he was asked to go to the hospital immediately.
After agreeing, Ling Feng let the silence carry him to the villa, took his own car, and then parted ways with her.
When he reached the hospital, he realized it was already chaotic even before entering the building!
Not only the police, but the firefighters, the armed police, and the safety bureau personnel were also present.
Seeing Du Song among the crowd, Ling Feng quickly approached: "What’s happening?"
"So many people were bitten by zombies, over ten, the hospital is overwhelmed!"
Du Song sighed in relief seeing Ling Feng: "Boss, please check it out, it seems the things are poisonous, some people’s faces turned black after being bitten!"
"Alright, I understand!"
Ling Feng hurried through the chaotic crowd to the emergency room.
Walking in, he found the place was already packed with victims, each looking like farmers moaning in pain on the hospital beds.
Medical staff was overwhelmed by the chaos; Ling Feng walked to the closest patient and checked his pulse.
Necrotoxin!
Realizing this person was indeed infected with necrotoxin, Ling Feng turned around and loudly asked: "Who is in charge here? Come here quickly!"
"You are..."
A doctor heard him, hesitated at first but then seemingly recalling something, he quickly came over: "Is it Mr. Ling?"
Ling Feng found him somewhat familiar; it seemed he had encountered him before while visiting someone for treatment.
However, he couldn’t remember the doctor’s name, so he nodded: "Yes, it’s me, now go quickly to the herbal medicine room and get borneol, indigo leaves..."
He rapidly listed around a dozen herbal medicines, fortunately, the doctor was professionally trained and remembered everything.
After listening, the doctor looked at Ling Feng and asked: "Will this cure them?"
"Rest assured, it definitely will, go and get them now, I’ll take responsibility for any issues!"
Ling Feng showed his credentials.
"Alright!"
The doctor was also anxious. Everyone was helpless in the face of so many patients; now that someone was able to use medicine for detoxification, they couldn’t care less whether he was a doctor or had a medical license.
After he left, Du Song approached Ling Feng: "Boss, this mess is huge!"
"I was about to ask you, exactly how many zombies appeared?" Ling Feng asked.
Du Song swallowed nervously: "At least a dozen!"
"Damn, where did they all come from?"
Ling Feng was shocked and immediately asked.
"They all appeared in the suburbs, in all directions—north, south, east, west—mostly near villages. It’s the busy autumn harvest time, and these patients were caught off guard and suddenly attacked!"
Du Song explained further, looking at the patients in the room: "It’s not just these; more are on their way here. Mainly, there are suddenly so many people, the ambulances aren’t enough!"
"..."
Ling Feng was speechless.
The suddenness of the incidents indeed caught people off guard.
But what he was most curious about now was why this was happening!
If it was just one or two occurrences, perhaps it would be a coincidence, but continuous appearances in different places were indeed strange.
Thus, while waiting for the medicinal herbs to arrive, Ling Feng called Ye Qian.
After connecting, the other side asked: "Colonel Ling, what do you need from me?"
"Hmm, do you know anything about zombies?" Ling Feng directly asked.
"Zombies? I’ve heard of them, what’s up?" Ye Qian asked.
They were colleagues, and Ling Feng didn’t hide anything, solemnly saying: "Something happened on my side..."
After explaining, Ye Qian was also quite shocked and after a moment of silence she asked: "Colonel Ling, do you want me to come over to help?"
"If you have time, it would be best if you could come over and take a look, I really don’t understand these things!" Ling Feng said.
"Okay, I’ll talk to the director first, and then I’ll get back to you!" Ye Qian replied.
