73: Crush, accident, blood demon spirit!

Roar!

Just then, as Li An's gaze fell on the slightly open door, a series of low growls suddenly echoed in the quiet corridor. If Li An's hearing wasn't far superior to ordinary people, he might not have even noticed it.

Zombie Dog!

Li An's ears twitched. Although the sound from outside the corridor was faint, he, being familiar with the plot, naturally knew what kind of creature it was. What he hadn't expected was that only a few tens of seconds should have passed since Kaplan shut down the Red Queen, right?

In such a short time, the Zombie Dogs had already started moving.

It must be said that the Zombie Dog truly lived up to its reputation as the most dangerous monster in the first movie, second only to the Licker.

As he pondered, the faint sounds from outside the door grew louder, and Li An could hear heavy panting approaching from a distance, which made him realize that he seemed to have been targeted.

“My luck…”

Li An smiled helplessly, but even though he knew he was targeted by the Zombie Dogs, his expression remained unchanged. This was because, with his current strength, he truly didn't need to put these Zombie Dogs in his eyes.

Roar!

At this moment, another series of low growls came from outside the door. Perhaps sensing that their prey was inside, the Zombie Dogs outside couldn't hold back and let out hungry roars.

The next second.

With a loud bang, the laboratory door was instantly slammed open from the outside by a Zombie Dog. The immense force even caused the door to crack the wall behind it in several places.

Drip!

Drip!

This was the sound of saliva dripping onto the ground. The moment the door was knocked open, a Zombie Dog, completely devoid of skin and with its muscles and tendons exposed, appeared before Li An.

Whoosh!

Without hesitation, the moment it rushed into the laboratory, the Zombie Dog immediately locked onto Li An. Then, it roared and moved its body to attack Li An. As it moved, the Zombie Dog opened its foul, blood-filled mouth, revealing a mouthful of sharp fangs.

[Bio-Beast · Zombie Dog]

HP: 3800

Strength: 80 (Attack Power)

Agility: 85 (Attack Speed, Movement Speed)

Stamina: 67 (Recovery, Defense)

Intelligence: 5 (Mental Power)

Abilities: Bite Lv.8, Virus Infection Lv.8

1. [Passive · Bite Lv.8: The biting force of the infected Zombie Dog is further enhanced, possessing characteristics such as tearing and continuous bleeding.]

2. [Passive · Infection Spread Lv.8: Zombie Dogs can infect targets that they damage through biting, clawing, and other attack methods. The virus will fully zombify the target 30 minutes after entering its body.]

...The moment the Zombie Dog pounced, Li An clearly saw its information through his eyes. He directly threw a punch, meeting the Zombie Dog head-on. Where his fist passed, the powerful force attached to it even caused a terrifying sonic boom in the air.

Bang!

The Zombie Dog was instantly struck by Li An's punch. Faced with an absolute disparity in strength, the Zombie Dog didn't even have time to react before it was blown apart by Li An's punch. Fragments of flesh splattered everywhere, instantly staining most of the laboratory blood-red.

“Hmm?”

At this moment, Li An hadn't expected the Zombie Dog to be unable to withstand even one punch from him. He inevitably got splattered with scattered decaying flesh and blood.

Moreover, what made Li An's expression even uglier at this moment was that a trace of blood had appeared on the corner of his mouth at some point.

Infected!

At this moment, Li Li An's mind went blank. He was stunned for a moment, then he felt something seem to have entered his body. The moment it entered his body, it surged towards his heart at an extremely fast speed.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle!

However, at this moment, when Li An didn't know what to do, a burning sensation suddenly came from within his body. Then, before he could figure out what was happening, he felt that the unknown thing that had entered his body was gone.

[Ding! Your physical strength has received a slight increase!]

The next second, the Paradise's prompt sounded in Li An's ear, which immediately made Li An react.

“Devourer.”

“My physique…”

At this point, Li An suddenly realized something. He had only noticed that he was infected with the t-virus, but he had forgotten that his Devourer was a terrifying physique that could devour any target and convert it into evolution energy.

[Origin · Devourer Lv.5: Can devour any target and convert it into evolution energy. There is no upper limit to the evolution level. It can absorb 2% of the total attributes of the devoured target to strengthen itself, and cell activity will also be in a highly active state. After devouring a certain amount of targets, physical strength will receive an additional increase.] (Unawakened State)

As the saying goes, panic leads to disorder. After experiencing this sudden crisis, Li An immediately realized that with his Devourer, he didn't need to fear the t-virus after all.

After all, his Devourer was a terrifying physique born from the fusion of the blacklight virus and an unknown seed!

It was only then that Li An realized he was immune to the t-virus.

But thinking about it, it made sense. The blacklight virus he had once devoured was the origin of a world, while the t-virus was merely an artificially created product. Even the progenitor virus, the mother of the t-virus, could only be considered an ancient virus and simply couldn't compare to his blacklight virus.

Although the Blacklight abilities he had inherited earlier were inherited by the Blood Demon Spirit's Hunter, the most crucial Blacklight body had become his own ability after fusing with the unknown seed.

And it was precisely because of this that Li An could fearlessly resist the erosion of the t-virus and even convert it into a part of his strength.

“Good!”

“Good, good, good!”

Li An's face immediately showed joy, and he repeatedly praised it.

At this moment, he completely understood the power and uniqueness of his physique, and this incident also made him realize more information about his physique.

Roar~

However, at this moment, another series of growls came from outside the smashed-open door. This sudden loud commotion immediately pulled Li An back to his senses, and he looked towards the doorway.

The next second, more than ten drooling Zombie Dogs staggered into the laboratory, their blood-red eyes staring intently at Li An.

“Perfect, I'll use you all to test my new ability.”

Seeing more than ten Zombie Dogs appearing so clearly before him, Li An was not surprised but rather delighted. He directly took a step towards the pack of Zombie Dogs.

He slowly raised his right hand, and as he turned his palm upwards, his mind stirred slightly.

The next second, a shocking scene appeared. A drop of crimson blood slowly condensed and formed in the center of his palm.

[Ding! You have consumed 10% of your HP to condense a basic Blood Demon Spirit. Please implant it into a suitable host within one minute. If the time limit is exceeded, the Blood Demon Spirit will completely dissipate.]

At this moment, the Paradise's voice also sounded, but the next second, Li An completely ignored the prompt in his ear. The moment the blood formed, he directly flicked the drop of blood away, shooting it towards the closest Zombie Dog.

Blood Demon Spirit!

Talent Effect 4 · Spirit Attachment: Immediately consume a certain amount of HP to condense a Blood Demon Spirit. The amount of HP consumed determines the Blood Demon Spirit's potential. When the Blood Demon Spirit merges with a suitable host, it will generate different abilities based on the host. The Blood Demon Spirit can evolve autonomously, but the creator has absolute control.
