Global Grave Digging: My Reward Increased Ten Thousand Times

46: Uncover the hidden truthLin Fei picked up the magic sword, feeling the magic flowing within it, and nodded with satisfaction.

Afterward, he picked up the photograph.

In the photo, a middle-aged man dressed in the Town Mayor’s attire with a kind smile was holding an infant in swaddling clothes, with his gentle wife standing beside him, and the background was the town’s church.

”So that’s how it is.”

Lin Fei looked at the photo, then swept his gaze across the mountain of corpses with varying degrees of decay piled in the corner of the air-raid shelter.

He instantly understood a lot in his heart.

”This Zombie Giant Infant Lss is likely the mutated child of the Town Mayor.

As for these remains, they were all lured here by the Town Mayor as food for it.”

Lin Mengzi also leaned over to look at the photo and sighed: ”It’s truly pathetic. In the apocalypse, human nature is twisted to this extent.”

Hearing Lin Fei’s analysis and looking at the corpses on the ground, Zhou Kai and the other two felt a wave of sighs and lingering fear.

If they hadn’t followed Lin Fei, they might have become rations for this giant infant.

Ding!

【Hidden condition met: Reveal the truth about the Zombie Giant Infant Lss.】

【Main quest updated: Go to the mental hospital’s underground research institute and rescue Dr. Allen.】

”Let’s go, it’s time to find the doctor.” Lin Fei’s eyes lit up as he put away the photo.

”Boss, wait a second!” Xu Zhengyang suddenly pointed to a corner of the air-raid shelter, ”Look, there are a few boxes over there!”

The group walked over and indeed found six boxes dropped by players.

”It’s Barton and his group! They really died here!” Xu Zhengyang opened the boxes excitedly.

The other items were average, but in Barton’s box...

That top-tier M4A1 with a flame paint job and an attached grenade launcher was clearly listed inside!

In addition, there was quite a bit of Advanced ammunition and equipment.

”Boss! This gun is for you!” Xu Zhengyang’s eyes shone, but he still decided to hand the cool M4 to Lin Fei.

Lin Fei glanced at it and waved his hand: ”You use it. Firearms are useless to me.

Arm yourself well and improve your strength.”

”This! Thank you, Boss!” Xu Zhengyang was overwhelmed with excitement and hugged the dream weapon tightly to his chest.

He felt like he was walking on air!

Zhou Kai and the other two were filled with envy, and at the same time, they admired Lin Fei’s generosity and strength even more.

After organizing the loot.

Lin Mengzi took the Zombie Giant Infant Lss into her command.

It turned into an Undead Battle Infant!

It still had a massive physique, but the pustules and disgusting blood vessels on its body had disappeared.

It looked chubby and white, completely ghost-like, and surprisingly even a little cute.

The two cars started their engines again, drove out of the Police Station’s area, and followed the dilapidated streets toward the mental hospital marked on the map.

The scenery along the way became increasingly desolate, and the degree of damage to the buildings was even higher.

Sporadic zombies tried to approach, but they were easily dealt with by the Undead Legion and the ice arrows Lin Fei shot casually.

They couldn’t even slow down the speed of the vehicles by a fraction.

Soon, a white building that covered a large area, but had mottled outer walls and mostly broken windows, appeared at the end of the view.

The iron gate was twisted and deformed, covered in withered vines, and the words ”St. Marian Mental Rehabilitation Center” on the sign were blurred.

A gloomy and oppressive atmosphere shrouded the place.

”This is the mental hospital!” Lin Mengzi looked at the building in front of her and frowned slightly, ”I can’t understand why Dr. Allen would conduct research in a place like this.”

”Maybe it’s because it’s close to the town and he can find samples. The map shows that the doctor is in the underground research institute.” Lin Fei jumped out of the car, ”Let’s go.”

The group walked through the gate of the mental hospital.

The interior looked even more dilapidated than the outside; the hall was scattered with overturned hospital beds, wheelchairs, and various medical instruments, and the floor was covered with dried stains and unknown debris.

The light deep in the corridor was dim, and it was silent.

”It’s dilapidated and desolate everywhere here, just like the apocalypse,” Lin Mengzi said.

At the same time, she commanded five Undead Hounds to scout ahead.

”Doomsday zombies are a major category of science fiction.”

”However, the works from Island Country, Lighthouse Country, Bear Country, and Dragon Country are very different.”

”How so?” Lin Mengzi asked.

Because his previous phone was quite laggy, he didn’t have much to do for entertainment.

Lin Fei had taken a liking to reading e-books.

Whether it was web novels, world classics, celebrity biographies, political economy, or religion and philosophy.

As long as it was a book, he loved to read it.

He even read machine-translated content that didn’t have good translations with great relish.

”Lighthouse Country likes to tell stories about the adventures of a group of people. The bridge they encounter is always broken, but there are always repair tools within a few kilometers.”

”Works from Bear Country are relatively pessimistic, but some still maintain an artistic philosophy of finding joy in suffering during extreme predicaments.”

”As for Island Country, it’s just a story about a Trash male protagonist who has been single since birth and has no merits other than kindness, who suddenly can find romance with a girl in the apocalypse.”

”What about Dragon Country?” Lin Mengzi asked curiously.

Lin Fei smiled and held up two fingers: ”Eight characters can accurately summarize it: QQ Farm, Carrot Defense.”

”Haha, the farming genre, right?” Lin Mengzi laughed, ”People from Dragon Country really like to engage in infrastructure and farming.”

Lin Fei: ”The nine big characters: ’Build high walls, store plenty of grain, and delay becoming king’ are already engraved in the bones of people from Dragon Country.”

Lin Fei had never been to Dragon Country, but he longed for it.

Moreover, Aunt Chen had told him that his name, Lin Fei, was not given by her.

When she found Lin Fei back then, he had a name tag written in Chinese characters on him.

So, Lin Fei was highly likely to be from Dragon Country.

However, having lived in Luo Country since he was a child, Lin Fei also had a sense of local attachment to the small Luo Country.

Lin Mengzi added: ”But some books I’ve read all turn into immortal cultivation in the Late Stage.”

Lin Fei smiled: ”There’s no other way. There’s nothing left to write, but there’s still income, so if the author doesn’t want to end it, they just switch maps and do immortal cultivation.”

Lin Mengzi complained again: ”But it’s okay for the apocalypse to turn into immortal cultivation, since it’s already a surreal genre.”

”The most annoying ones are some urban business novels. There’s no buildup at all, and while writing, the protagonist suddenly finds a jade pendant. Then it’s immortal cultivation, rushing out of the Universe, attacking the Heavenly Court, and dominating the ages.”

”By the way, some gourmet novels are like this too. It’s simply a speechless event.”

Lin Fei laughed: ”Indeed, some online game novels now, when written to the end, all want to dominate the ages!”

The two of them ranted about contemporary web novels for a while.

Afterward, following the instructions on the map, the group quickly found the elevator leading to the underground research institute.

The power System was still operating, and the elevator door opened slowly.

They entered the elevator and pressed the button for the third underground floor.

As the elevator descended, a strong smell of formalin wafted over.

Ding!

The elevator door opened, and a dim metal corridor came into view.

There were several layers of railings in the corridor blocking the way, as if it were a cage.

But it couldn’t stop Lin Fei.

With a pull of his hands, the steel bars in front of him were like soft ropes, and he pulled out a passage that a person could pass through.

Observation windows were embedded in the walls, through which one could see various precision instruments and petri dishes placed inside.

But most were already damaged or covered in dust.

Inside a large laboratory at the end of the corridor, an old man wearing a white lab coat with gray hair but sharp eyes.

Was anxiously operating something in front of a pile of complex instruments.

He seemed completely immersed in his own world, unaware of the arrival of Lin Fei and Lin Mengzi.

”Ahem, Dr. Allen?” Lin Fei asked.
