Yu Yuan was good-looking and friendly, so Yan Bubu naturally liked him. But she still turned her head to look at Feng Chen by the window, and only opened the door and let him in after seeing him nod.

Yu Yuan walked straight into the house and placed a bunch of things on the small table: "There are shampoo, shower gel, laundry detergent, etc. in here. They are all things we need now."

"Thank you." Feng Chen walked over from the window, dragged out a chair from under the cabinet, motioned for Yu Yuan to sit down, and sat down on the table opposite him.

Yan Bubu staggered over again, dragging her bathrobe with her, climbed onto the bed, and sat next to Feng Chen.

Yu Yuan found it funny and said, "I'll have someone send two more sets of clothes over later. Even though they're a little bigger, they're better than this."

"Thank you, Colonel Yu." Feng Chen really needed clothes now. His and Yan Bubu's things were left at the Beehive. If the clothes in the bathroom were not washed and dried, the two of them would have to wear bathrobes.

Yu Yuan waved her hand to indicate that it was nothing to worry about, then put away the smile on her face and looked at Feng Chen.

Feng Chen knew that he was going to tell him about the mysterious power and the black lion, and he began to get nervous. He swallowed unconsciously, and the fingers on his sides curled slightly.

The black lion that was standing by the door also came over and lay down at Yan Bubu's feet. It seemed lazy and unconcerned, but its ears stood straight up, with two small pointed ears sticking out from its mane, trembling constantly.

Yu Yuan got straight to the point and said, "Qin Shen, I know some strange things have happened to you recently, and I also know that you have a lot of doubts in your heart. I will tell you what I know now."

"In fact, one year before the earthquake, an unknown virus swept across our planet and invaded the bodies of some people. When the incubation period is over and the onset period begins, the human body will experience some cold-like symptoms, the most obvious of which is persistent fever."

"If you pay attention to social news, you will find that many cities have reported vicious injuries and people biting others, but the news was quickly suppressed. But in fact, without knowing it, many of us have been quietly mutating, or have already completed the mutation process."

Yu Yuan crossed his hands on his knees and moved his thumbs back and forth, showing that he was not so calm inside when he was saying these words.

"There are three possible outcomes of mutation. One is becoming a person with special abilities. One is recovering naturally and remaining an ordinary person. The third is becoming a zombie."

Feng Chen was listening attentively with his lips tightly pursed. Yan Bubu was also listening. Although he was confused, he knew that Yu Yuan was talking about zombies, so he sat there motionless for fear of disturbing them.

"In fact, zombies are just like us, they are mutated humans. Let's just assume that their mutation failed, while ours succeeded." Yu Yuan smiled bitterly.

"The probability of mutating into a person with special abilities is one in a thousand of the total number of mutants, and the probability of recovering as an ordinary person is 40% of the total number of mutants. It seems that the chance of recovery is not too low, but as long as a loser bites someone around him, the consequences will be unimaginable. Moreover, even if a recovered person has experienced mutation, he will still become a zombie after being bitten by a loser."
