Leprosy, caused by Mycobacterium leprae, is a chronic infectious disease that has been eliminated long ago in the age of the earth.

However, as people on earth traveled to other worlds, a large number of earth pathogens were stimulated by the alien environment and mutated explosively into dozens or hundreds of subtypes.

There are also many terrestrial germs that strangely merged with germs from other worlds, and finally the zombie virus known as the "King of Viruses" was born.

There are hundreds of subtypes of zombie viruses.

Not all subtypes are fatal.

However, most of the subtypes will cause the human body to be gnawed by the bacteria and become mutilated, deformed and twisted, which is more terrifying than the leprosy patients in the medieval times.

There are also subtypes of zombie viruses that activate gene fragments deep in human cells that come from ancient times and have been dormant for tens of millions of years, causing humans to exhibit various atavistic characteristics.

It grew scales, feathers, fangs and claws, and its five senses became sharper, but its brain shrank rapidly, and it gradually became a beast in human skin.

This process is also called "monsterization".

Among hundreds of subtypes, there is only one subtype that does not affect human normal form, emotion and logical thinking ability.

But it has completely changed the shape and function of mitochondria deep in human cells, allowing human mitochondria to directly absorb, store and release spiritual energy, thereby allowing humans to awaken extraordinary power and transform into extraordinary beings.

From this perspective, extraordinary people are just the lucky few among all those infected with the zombie virus.

But the remaining ninety-nine unfortunate infected people, even if they were lucky enough to survive, turned into humans and ghosts.

In the bloody, dark, and barbaric era when social order collapsed a few decades ago, infected people were extremely unwelcome.

Needless to say, those humans who have been completely turned into zombies by the outbreak of the virus will only be greeted by swords and bullets.

Even if the infection is mild, you can still maintain a certain degree of emotion and rationality, because your deformed and ugly appearance is often not tolerated by all forces.

In fact, the vast majority of infected people have extremely weak ability to transmit the virus.

In other words, with the brutal elimination in the first ten years, those people on earth with low immunity have long since died. Those who survived by chance, even if their appearance is still ordinary, have an immune system that is ten times more powerful than that of the earth era.

, you will not be infected with the zombie virus easily.

But human fear is inherently irrational and illogical.

The survivors who have suffered from the ravages of zombies and watched their relatives and friends die tragically at the claws of zombies need a channel to vent their fears.

Besides, most of the infected people often have mutilated limbs and deformed mutations. They can neither help resist zombies and monsters, nor can they build high walls, dig shelters, and expand their living space.

Letting them join your team will only waste food and reduce the survival probability of normal people in the team.

The extremely cruel survival rules force the healthy and normal survivors to drive the mildly infected people with deformed mutations far outside the shelter, leaving them to fend for themselves.

Mildly infected people have no choice but to huddle together for warmth and struggle to survive.

Their settlement was called "Leprosy Village", which has the same meaning as the historical Leprosy Village.

Life in another world is extremely difficult.

Even strong adults with all hands and feet, armed to the teeth, may not be able to withstand the impact of zombies and monsters.

Most of the leprosy villages with mildly infected people were successively attacked by zombies and monsters within a year and a half, or at most three to five years, after they were built, and all the mildly infected people inside were missing.

This can be regarded as a stain as strong as ink in the cruel survival history of Dragon City in the past half century.

Many teenagers who were born in the golden years after the Survival Committee and Transcendent Tower were established one after another and order was restored in Dragon City, have long forgotten the existence of mildly infected people and leprosy villages.

Even Meng Chao didn't expect that there were mildly infected people deep in the nest city.

"Residents in leprosy villages may not all be infected with the zombie virus."

Chen Hao explained painfully, "After all, thirty or forty years have passed since the zombie crisis, and all the first generation of mildly infected people have long since died.

"But they still left behind many descendants, all of them are weird, hideous and ugly guys. If they go outside, they will definitely be discriminated against by ordinary citizens.

"Back then, their parents, because they were not tolerated by normal people, fled to the depths of Chao City to survive. Over time, they got used to the life here and did not want to go out and ask for trouble.

"Of course, normal people would not go to a leprosy village if they had nothing to do.

"But these guys should not be contagious. After all, they are all second or third generation, and the virus has long been weakened.

"Not to mention, although these descendants of infected people are deformed and ugly, they can do anything in order to survive. There are really some mutated ghosts. Major gangs often hire them to do things they are inconvenient and unwilling to do.

Go do the dirty work.

"In addition, there is also a black market in the leprosy village, martial arts laboratories and weapon modification workshops. There have always been many evil practices, extremely powerful but extremely unstable weapons, and genetic medicines that are extremely effective but have extremely strong side effects. They have been flowing out of the leprosy village.

came out, but no one knew what was going on, and no one was willing to enter the leprosy village to investigate.

"In short, the Leprosy Village is the most closed and dangerous place in the entire Chao City. Many people outside call Chao City the toilet of Dragon City, so the Leprosy Village is the septic tank under the toilet.

"The descendants of those infected have a deep resistance to healthy normal people, and are full of strong hostility to extraordinary people - probably because they were also infected with the zombie virus and turned into deformed children with missing limbs.

, but you have become a bright and powerful person, right?

"Fortunately, these guys know how powerful the outside world is, and they won't come out easily. When they come out, they wrap themselves up tightly, not even half an inch of skin is exposed, which is scary.

"It seems that a few years ago, 'Ba Dao' Jin Wanhao came forward to represent Jinyachao City and made an agreement with the Leprosy Village. We should not interfere with the rivers. The Chaocheng gang will not cut off the Leprosy Village's livelihood, and the Leprosy Village will not give any

There's trouble in the nest city - that's about it."

Chen Hao was afraid that if he spoke slower, Meng Chao would break a few bones.

What should be said and what should not be said were all said at once.

Meng Chao asked Chen Hao to mark the location of the leprosy village on the map.

After careful study with Zhou Chong, they discovered that the Leprosy Village was located in the center of Chao City, between the spheres of influence of the major gangs.

In the sewers in a nearby area, ingredients suspected to be the Shenbian Capsule were detected.

"The mastermind behind the scenes and the refining factory of the magic capsule are all hidden in the leprosy village?"

Meng Chao and Zhou Chong looked at each other and felt that the possibility was extremely high.

"The boss only said three words 'leprosy village'."

Meng Chao pondered, "The leprosy village is so big, where do you want to send the goods?"

“All the windows of the buildings in the outermost circle of the leprosy village are blocked. They are surrounded by a deep ditch, which is filled with domestic garbage and soaked by various industrial and laboratory wastewater. Over time, it becomes smelly.

It's sticky and extremely corrosive, like a swamp. On this side of the ditch, the major gangs have set up high-voltage power grids and anti-aircraft machine guns, just to prevent the descendants of the infected from sneaking out."

Chen Hao explained, “In the entire leprosy village, there is only one road leading to the outside world, which is a small bridge over a ditch. There is an open space next to the bridge, which is regarded as a black market for leprosy villagers to trade goods with the outside world and discuss some shady matters.

Business or something.

"When people in Nest City say they go to the leprosy village, they basically go to this black market. If they want to send something to the leprosy village, they ask the roller skaters to put it in the black market's locker."

Meng Chao and Zhou Chong discussed for a while and uploaded the information to the command center.

"The target is most likely hiding in the leper village deep in the nest city."

Zhou Chong gritted his teeth and said, "We must be prepared to sneak into the leprosy village to capture the target. The biggest problem now is that we know nothing about the situation in the leprosy village. The building structure inside, the distribution of firepower points, how many people there are, and they

Regarding the Survival Committee and our attitude, whether there are lurking wanted criminals and lost persons, whether there are high-end combat forces above the heavenly realm... everything is unknown!

"If it is an ordinary area in the nest city, we can obtain all information through the neural tactical data link, and we can also get support from major gangs. The existing arrest team is enough to cope with it.

“In the mist-shrouded leprosy village, I have no confidence or even guarantee that it will not cause heavy casualties.

"Please ask the command center to send reinforcements immediately to assist our operations!"

The command center was silent for a moment, and then Nie Chenglong's slightly tired and helpless voice came: "Captain Zhou, reinforcements are being assembled, but... you must be prepared to confront the enemy before the reinforcements arrive."

"Man-Eating Shark" Zhou Chong stared: "What does this mean?"

"The beast tide has appeared."

Nie Chenglong's voice was extremely solemn, "Three minutes ago, an overwhelming tide of beasts appeared on more than a dozen fronts around Dragon City at the same time. Following the Battle of the Raging Waves Mountains, the monster civilization once again launched a campaign-level attack on us!

"

"What!"

Meng Chao, Zhou Chong, and all senior hunters were stunned.

Following the neural data link, images from dozens of advanced bases, crystal mining sites and smelting plants, and pioneering strongholds outside Dragon City were projected onto their retinas.
