190: Chapter 19 Returning Home with a Heavy Pregnancy

The location here was simply a large, single-story house.

Inside, men, women, the old, and the young all lived mixed together.

Surprisingly, there were also a great many Infants inside.

The people here all wore expressions of utter indifference on their faces.

Upon first seeing Ye Qingqing and the others, some people's faces even showed fear.

But more of them wore looks of numbness.

They were so numb that when Ye Qingqing and the others arrived, they didn't even glance their way.

They just kept staring at their own affairs.

Though, for these people, their 'affairs' were merely staring at the ground.

A chill rose in Ye Qingqing's heart as she watched.

Looking at these people, she couldn't help but think of her former self in her past life.

In her previous life, she had been just like these people, her eyes filled with numbness.

Furthermore, when Ye Qingqing saw the Infants on the ground, she could guess what had happened here.

Suddenly, one person in the crowd began convulsing all over and started vomiting.

"Ugh!"

It was a woman. Her face was extremely haggard and sallow, with dark circles under her eyes, and her belly was swollen to an enormous size.

Moreover, there was an abnormal writhing movement inside the woman's belly.

Ye Qingqing immediately turned her head to look at Mo Wangchuan.

Mo Wangchuan wasted no time at all, immediately squatting down to examine the woman's condition.

But when Mo Wangchuan used his Superpower on the woman's belly, his brow immediately furrowed.

Because the woman before him had clearly been pregnant many times already.

And the intervals between each pregnancy were extremely short.

The pregnant woman who had been kneeling and begging Ye Qingqing earlier, upon seeing the woman before Mo Wangchuan,

immediately ran forward, weeping.

"Xiaoman, Xiaoman, my poor, unfortunate Xiaoman..."

The woman held Xiaoman, tears continuously welling in her eyes.

The woman didn't look old, but her face was full of aged features.

Mo Wangchuan sensed something unusual and placed his hand on the woman's body as well.

But when he did, his frown deepened even further.

Kong Ziyi also squatted beside Mo Wangchuan, his face revealing concern: "How is the situation?"

Mo Wangchuan felt a chill in his body and slowly uttered: "They have all given birth many times in a short period."

After Mo Wangchuan said this, a shiver of cold ran down the backs of everyone present.

Kong Ziyi, however, seemed somewhat stunned: "What do you mean?"

Meng Hangfei's eyes held gravity as he surveyed the situation inside the house: "The literal meaning."

The person on the ground convulsed even more violently.

Mo Wangchuan glanced at the pregnant woman: "Let me take a look."

Seeing this, the pregnant woman immediately knelt before Mo Wangchuan again: "Please, I beg you, please save my sister."

The pregnant woman knelt, kowtowing toward Mo Wangchuan as she spoke.

Seeing this, Ye Qingqing helped the pregnant woman up: "If you want your sister to survive, then tell us what happened."

The sun outside grew brighter, but none of them noticed that today, the temperature wasn't as high as usual.

In fact, it was even a few degrees cooler than the night.

But everyone inside the house was focused on the situation within, and no one noticed the abnormality outside.

Hearing Ye Qingqing's words, the pregnant woman immediately moved away from the woman called Xiaoman.

But she remained kneeling, her eyes seeming to reveal a kind of grim determination.

Because she was too dirty, the woman didn't even dare get close to Ye Qingqing.

She just knelt about half a meter away from Ye Qingqing.

"Miss, please, I beg you, save us."

"My name is Wang Xiaochun, and that is my sister, Wang Xiaoman."

"Originally, we were local residents here, but then the Post-Apocalyptic World came. At first, everything was fine."

"People in the base had long used their bodies to trade for food, but it was all voluntary."

"But ever since Superpowers awakened, there have been more and more Ability Users in the base."

"We... we thought about escaping, but we couldn't leave. Any woman was... was treated as a breeding tool."

"Women with some looks, favored by the Superpowers, could stay by the Ability Users' sides."

"But once they became pregnant, they had to... had to undergo experiments..."

When Wang Xiaochun reached this point, her body trembled, her eyes gradually turning bloodshot, filled with hatred.

"What experiments?"

Huo Sixian asked with a frown. He had a feeling the experiments Wang Xiaochun mentioned were related to the Bat Zombie they had encountered before.

Wang Xiaochun's voice now carried a sob.

"We don't know the specifics, but the men around us grew fewer and fewer. Some were taken to become Little Handsome. Gradually, some of them were brainwashed, turning their fists against us, people they once knew."

"But some men just vanished into thin air."

"Even the men who did return alive gradually lost their clarity of mind."

"Later, the Ability Users' experimental targets became women."

"Every woman taken away returned with a swollen belly."

"But each person's condition was different."

As she spoke, Wang Xiaochun exposed her own belly.

"My belly became like this... after giving birth to a... monster."

"It only became like this after that."

When Wang Xiaochun said this, her trembling intensified.

A bad premonition arose in Ye Qingqing's heart.

"What exactly do you mean by 'monster'?"

Huo Sixian asked in a low voice.

Huo Sixian had a vague conjecture. He knew asking was cruel, but now, he had to uncover the truth.

"It's... it's..."

As Wang Xiaochun spoke, trembling and stammering, suddenly, Wang Xiaoman beside her let out a piercing, sharp scream.

Mo Wangchuan's expression also turned grim.

"Ye Qingqing, give me some delivery tools. She's about to give birth."

Ye Qingqing felt some confusion.

About to give birth?

Even though Wang Xiaoman had a belly when they first saw her, it was far from being at the stage of labor.

Though puzzled, Ye Qingqing still retrieved the tools from her space.

However, when Ye Qingqing handed the tools over, everyone was stunned.

Wang Xiaochun even began to whimper.

"Xiaoman..."

"Xiaoman..."

Mo Wangchuan had just prepared the delivery tools, not even having time to sterilize them,

when Wang Xiaoman's belly began to writhe violently. Even abnormal bulges appeared on her skin.

Ye Qingqing saw with her own eyes a shape resembling a human hand appear on Wang Xiaoman's belly, but it was definitely not a human hand.

Instead... it looked like the shape of a chicken's claw.

And at the same time, the woman's belly visibly began to swell at a rapid pace.
