She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!

Chapter 358: Chapter 357: Victims Behind the Holographic Reality Show, Part 10

”It seems so,” Jie Weiwei replied somewhat uneasily, trying hard to recall their experiences over the past two months. They really hadn’t encountered zombies for a long time.

When did it start?

At this moment, Rong Man chimed in, ”It was after Mo Xue and the others awakened their superpowers that the number of zombies we encountered became fewer and fewer. Remember when we were almost surrounded by mutant creatures? There wasn’t a single zombie among them, only other mutated creatures.”

”Everyone, be cautious,” He Guiyun said. He was still the captain of the team. With everyone’s superpowers and their recent streak of good luck, life had become much more comfortable. His impatience rarely showed, and he was filled with hope for survival. Of course, what he yearned for even more was to return to the original world—a world of unprecedented peace. ”We’re almost at the base.”

Having said that, He Guiyun gazed into the distance.

He suddenly thought of Bei Chen, who had turned into a zombie from the start, and he wondered how she was doing now.

”Oh no...”

A sudden exclamation drew everyone’s attention. It turned out that the voice belonged to Li Na.

Everyone turned to look at her and saw her grimacing in pain. She said, ”I think I’m going into labor.”

As soon as she said this, everyone was stunned. Labor? They had never experienced anything like this and had no idea how to deliver a baby.

Everyone’s gaze swept over Jie Weiwei, Rong Man, Yun Rou, and Mo Xue. It was up to them to handle childbirth.

”Do you know how?” He Guiyun asked, taking a deep breath, feeling helpless.

The base was so close. If only the delivery could be delayed a bit, there might be someone there who knew what to do.

What he got was the four of them shaking their heads. But even if they didn’t know how, they could only forge ahead.

Initially, Li Na’s condition was quite dangerous. Later, she gradually stabilized, all thanks to the spectators watching everything unfold. They could only tip the participants, but it was enough. At Li Na’s critical moment, they awakened Jie Weiwei’s healing ability.

This was an unexpected surprise. In this dangerous world, having a healing ability was like having a trump card. They no longer had to worry so much about getting injured.

The words lingered in their minds, and they began to believe them somewhat.

It seemed that ever since they awakened their abilities, as long as they maintained a good heart and didn’t give up, they became increasingly fortunate.

Suppressing their inner worries, the group hit the road once more, all the while keeping an eye out for zombies.

”No zombies,” Chen Xingyang said lazily, looking at the hazy distance. ”It’s really been a long time since we saw any zombies.”

So, what kind of messed-up world was this, after all?

If they had known, they wouldn’t have gone out with Bei Chen.

[Program team, have you found the replay? What exactly is Bei Chen doing gathering all those zombies?]

[I’ve been watching Bei Chen’s spot every day, but she never speaks. Zombies keep coming to find her, then leave after standing in front of her for a while. I really don’t get it.]

[I suspect these zombies are reporting to her!]

[Me too.]

[It’s a shame we can only see Bei Chen’s perspective; otherwise, I’d really want to see where these zombies go. Damn it. Program team, hurry up with the replay.]

The program team continued to play dead. They also wanted to know what was happening, but it wasn’t happening fast enough. The Wen Family would definitely let them know when they had results.

The audience couldn’t urge the program team any further and could only continue watching both sides.

The group finally reached the base.

He Guiyun and the others showed a trace of relief in their smiles. They had finally arrived.

Their vehicles stopped outside the base, and someone immediately came over to inquire about the situation, then led them to register.

During their exchange, Jie Weiwei was the first to ask, ”Recently, we haven’t encountered any zombies. Do you know what’s going on?”

The staff member gave her a glance before responding, ”We also haven’t encountered zombies for a long time. Right now, the hardest thing to deal with are those strange mutant creatures.”

Where the zombies had gone was a topic of daily discussion, yet no conclusion had been reached. Many people were worried that if the zombies were eliminated by something more powerful, what would humanity do?

What?

Everyone was shocked. Were the zombies extinct? Who wiped them out?

Jie Weiwei and the others didn’t dwell on it too deeply. Finally arriving in a stable environment, they wanted to rest and relax for a while.

But the question of where the zombies had gone continued to linger in their minds.

[Ah, did the base not figure out where the zombies have gone either?]

[So, where is Bei Chen now? I’m so curious.]

[She’s moving; is she going somewhere?]

The audience, following Ah Chen’s perspective, rode in a high-security elevator, watching the descending numbers, and they started to understand. She was heading underground—it looked very deep.

What was she planning to do?

Soon, Ah Chen arrived at a place resembling a laboratory. No, it was a massive laboratory.

All around her were zombies, many of a fairly high rank. Aside from their appearances, they moved like humans and could possibly be more agile than humans.

[What are these zombies researching?]

[Have they gained human consciousness?]

[Maybe they don’t remember who they are, but some abilities remain? Is it all thanks to zombie instincts?]

[Why does it seem like they want to take over the world? Will the two sides end up fighting?]

[Two more zombies came to communicate with Bei Chen; still no talking. Damn it, when I have money, I’m definitely buying a phone that can emit sound!]

Ah Chen nodded at the two zombies and then followed them to another place.

Soon, the audience saw the mutant creatures imprisoned there.

One of the zombies beside her handed her a spray bottle filled with an unknown liquid.

Ah Chen took the spray bottle and sprayed the liquid onto the mutant creature. The creature went into a frenzy, as if its contamination was gradually being removed. Its appearance became less frightening. Besides its still large size, its eyes no longer looked fierce, nor did it seem frenzied.

When it stopped struggling, the audience realized it was actually just a somewhat oversized rooster.

Its previous appearance had indeed been a bit terrifying, and it looked like a type of meat that wouldn’t taste good.

But now, it was different. It looked like it could fill three bowls.

[So, are they researching a potion that can restore things to their original state? But for now, they can only test it on those mutant creatures?]

[I suddenly feel like having a chicken hotpot.]

[Damn it, Bei Chen is up to something big. Does she even have any memories left?]

[I suspect she does, and she probably had some kind of fortuitous encounter. Initially, she might not have had self-awareness, but later she did. Without returning to her teammates, she most likely believes she can’t live with them the way she is now, so she plans to find another way out!]
