Source of pollution?
Gu Shengyin’s thoughts when looking at it was that it was simply a corpse of art1 .
With a closer look, not only Gu Shengyin, but everyone else discovered that below the corpse was a stream of black air and that there was a crack at the bottom of the coffin .
The wispy black gas permeated through the fine crack .
Was this black gas the root of all the zombies?
System: “Detecting data…detecting data……Data compilation is complete . The creature arrived to Earth from a dark planet2 located 100 million light years away due to a black hole which affected space and time . His body contains a strong dark power . The system has calculated that human beings have no resistance to this dark power, and zombiefication is a manifestation of infection . ”
Gu Shengyin was surprised: “He arrived to Earth alone, so how did he end up lying in a coffin?”
System: “There is only one possibility . The creature must have been in the coffin before passing through the black hole, and arrived at Earth by chance . The crack that caused the leakage of dark power should have been caused by a violent collision as he was traveling through the black hole . According to calculations, there are no melee weapons3 on Earth that could break this coffin . ” With firearms4, it was impossible to create such a fine gap .
“What the hell is this?” An ability user couldn’t help but reach out and touch it .
“Don’t touch it!” Unfortunately, Gu Shengyin hadn’t finished speaking when the ability user had already placed his hand on it .
The black gas seemed to have sensed a body it could parasitize, and a wisp of black slithered through the fine crack . It flowed along the ability user’s fingers and permeated into his body .
“AH!” That ability user suddenly shuddered and an inhuman noise burst from him .
If you aren’t already doing so, please read this at the original site, jiamintranslation . com .
Everyone watched as a human being, who had just been completely normal, mutated as his skin suddenly festered into a greenish-blue and the light in his eyes dulled .
In such a short moment, he had become a zombie!
“AOO!” It roared and charged at the closest researcher .
Lei Ting, who was quick of eye and deft of hand5, quickly pulled the man away, and simultaneously released a bolt of thunder that struck the newly turned zombie .
The zombie was violently knocked into the ground by the attack .
However, Lei Ting frowned .
Normally, zombies would be instantly killed by that attack, but this zombie was only knocked down, and it stood back up unharmed .
Calculating his options, his face became composed .
He prepared to make another attack, but a petite figure before him grabbed his attention .
A bright arrow of Light whistled towards the zombie’s head and directly penetrated its skull .
As the zombie’s corpse slowly toppled, it disintegrated into the air .
This was the hegemony of the power of Light . Towards dark creatures, there would never be the slightest mercy .
Meeting Lei Ting’s gaze, Gu Shengyin explained: “For fighting zombies, Light magic is more efficient . ”
The rest of the ability users woke up from their daze, and retreated far from that evil coffin .
“It can’t be, that this, is the source of the zombies?” A researcher pushed up his glasses and theorized .
The zombiefication of the ability user had been seen by all of them, and it wasn’t hard to understand the cause and effect .
Since they have discovered the source of the zombies, Gu Shengyin, who had been further informed by the System and had more knowledge, said: “We can assume that, this strange creature, or rather the black gas coming from his body, is the source of the zombie infection and this coffin is sealing it . However, this crack was caused by an unknown factor, and has lead to the leakage of the infection source . ”
When she said this, everyone’s eyes were focused on her .
JMin’s Corner:
It’s an alien!
corpse of art as in work of art (hahahahaha get it? this pun wasn’t in the original but i had to)
a dark planet is one that doesn’t reflect light, so it’s blacker than anything we know
an astronomer called Kepler actually found the distant Jupiter-sized exoplanet TrES-2b which reflects less than 1% of light that reaches it; that’s only 750 light years away so we’ll never know in our own lifetime if the author’s dark planet 100 million light years away exists xd
melee weapons – direct translation was ‘cold weapons’ which refers to weapons that use pure physical attacks (e . g . swords, knives); a more traditional term was ‘cold steel’
firearms – direct translation was ‘hot weapons’ which use thermal energy strike systems (e . g . gunpowder, explosives)
眼明手快 – yǎnmíngshǒukuài – quick of eye and deft of hand, i . e . alert with fast reactions
