As A Vampire, I Am No Longer A Human Being.

Origin Star, New Era 3030.

I don’t know when it started, but as if overnight, a virus appeared that swept the world.

Once the virus appeared, it spread throughout the world in a very short period of time.

No one knows where the virus originated or when it began to spread.

Rumors are popping up all over the country.

But the answer is like a mineral deposit buried deep underground that no one knows.

In the second half of 2030, the number of cases in various countries around the world increased sharply, and a large number of deaths began to occur.

The population of various countries has dropped sharply, and some small countries have even lost one-fifth of their population in a few months.

An inexplicable panic spread in people's hearts.

In early 3031, after a year of research, panic, and confusion, various countries began to take corresponding preventive measures and named the virus - Ancient Bat.

In 3033, a rumor inexplicably became popular on the Internet, claiming that the ancient bat virus was a legendary zombie virus. After a corpse without sparks sleeps for a period of time, it will wake up again and become a zombie without independent consciousness. The end of the world is no longer here. Far.

Although the official media of various countries came out to clarify in time, calling this a rumor and nonsense, they achieved little success.

Suddenly, the cremation industry was in turmoil. All deceased persons who had been dead for more than 24 hours must be cremated and their bones ground into powder.

Even in the few areas where burial is still popular, some radical people have found out about it.

Crematoriums and funeral parlors became popular for a while, and many newly opened funeral parlors took advantage of this to make a lot of money.

Post-apocalyptic articles about zombies have also become popular.

In 3035, research on the treatment of the ancient bat virus had preliminary results, and many mild patients had been treated. According to incomplete statistics, the global death toll has exceeded one seventh.

But the good news is that the daily death toll statistics are also visibly decreasing.

In 3036, demand promoted development, medical technology developed rapidly, and more and more patients were treated. The rumors of the end of the world were also self-defeating, and many crematoriums closed down in the same year.

On July 7, 3039, the last patient with the ancient bat virus in the world recovered and was discharged from the hospital, and no more cases have been found in the world.

According to incomplete statistics so far, since 3030, the global death toll has reached a staggering one-sixth.

According to the 2025 Global Population Survey, the total population of all countries in the world is about 14.5 billion. In this decade, including natural deaths, the total number of deaths is about 2.4 billion, and the remaining population is about 12.1 billion.

Ten years, a whole ten years.

Many people look back on these difficult years and bluntly say that compared to the past ten years, the doomsday movies made in the past are nothing but rubbish.

With the end of this inexplicable 'doomsday', a big question mark still needs to be placed on whether this incident is really over?

July 7, 3040, exactly one year has passed since the last virus patient recovered.

For a year, no more cases of the disease were found in the world. Only then did countries dare to confirm and declare that mankind has defeated the virus.

The joy that had been suppressed for a year also burst out on this day.

………

"Let's look at the next news. Yesterday, the Mengcheng City Public Security Bureau received a report from citizens and found a body in Xingfu Community in the western suburbs of our city."

"The deceased was a man who lived alone and was murdered at home."

"According to our reporter's follow-up follow-up, more than 80% of the blood from the deceased's body was drained, making him look like a mummy. The murderer's methods were extremely brutal and outrageous."

"This is the second similar case discovered in this city since the beginning of the year. After preliminary judgment by the police, this is most likely a serial murder case. The police are still under emergency investigation."

"If anyone has information, the police welcome citizens to provide clues about the murderer for a fee."

"At the same time, Xiaoyou here needs to warn all citizens to remember to travel alone when traveling at night, and to strengthen their own safety awareness, especially for women who live alone. It is recommended to minimize traveling at night and report travel conditions to relatives and friends in a timely manner."

"Okay, let's take a look at the next news..."

Lu Yan casually raised his head and glanced at the TV broadcasting news not far away, then looked back outside the room.

He raised his hand to arrange the mask and lowered the brim of the hat.

Standing at the entrance of the supermarket, looking at the sun-baked ground one meter in front of me.

Lu Yan hesitated for a second, then reached out and took out a pair of black gauze sleeves from his pocket. Gently put the thing lifted in the other hand on the ground, then carefully put the sleeve on the arm, and very carefully pulled the upper edge to the shoulder.

After stretching his arms to make sure that his sleeves would not slip off due to his movements, Lu Yan picked up the bag on the ground again.

Putting one hand in his pocket and carrying the food he just bought with the other, he walked towards the door of the supermarket.

To be honest, on such a hot day, Lu Yan's dark style outfit is quite eye-catching.

He was wearing black short-sleeves and black hand sleeves on his upper body, long black jeans on his lower body, and a black peaked cap on his head, and the mask he wore was also black.

The whole body is the same color, still black. In this summer, it looks hot.

However, if you look closely, you can find that only Lu Yan's right hand, which is carrying something, and his neck are exposed to the sun.

This can also be regarded as a disguised form of maximum sunshade effect.

When girls who are afraid of tanning see him, they have to give him a thumbs up and call him professional.

Lu Yan just faced the curious, doubtful, and envious glances of the people around him, unconsciously lowering his head and walking towards the school.

well--

If it weren't for the summer vacation, all school supermarkets would be closed and all laboratory supplies would be exhausted.

Lu Yan would never go out shopping in such a bright sun.

He didn't feel comfortable doing experiments while the air conditioner was blowing in the school.

In just a few steps, Lu Yan arrived at the school, said hello to the security guard at the door, and went straight into the school.

The process is very simple. Now think about it during the virus outbreak. If Lu Yan didn't bask in the sun for a few minutes at the door, he wouldn't be able to enter the school. He would shed tears if he talked about it too much.

It was during the summer vacation at this time. In addition to the prospective senior students preparing for the winter postgraduate entrance examination, they were the only graduate students who were still in the school.

At this time, most students taking postgraduate entrance exams are also studying in the study rooms.

So on the way from the door to the laboratory, Lu Yan didn't see a single student wandering around the campus.

Also, with such a strong sun, even if they are not studying, there will be no students wandering around the campus.

Speaking of which, Lu Yan is actually a native of Mengcheng, but his recent experiments have been a bit frowned upon, so he still filled out the application materials before the holiday and chose to stay in school.

Lu Yan usually had good grades and had a good relationship with the professor. With the professor's permission, he was allowed to use the laboratory.

drop--

When Lu Yan returned to the laboratory, the first thing he did was to turn on the air conditioner.

Standing at the air conditioner, enjoying the cool breeze and eating the ice cream I just bought, what a wonderful thing it is in this hot summer.

"Don't stare at me and expect me to feed you. Just put it in the bag and put the rest in the freezer."

In the empty and quiet laboratory, Lu Yan suddenly spoke without any beginning or end.

"whee."

As soon as he finished speaking, an ethereal female voice suddenly sounded in the laboratory.

If there are other people present, they must not be frightened to death on the spot.

"you are the best."

As the voice sounded, a little girl opened the door to the laboratory and walked in. She grabbed the bag Lu Yan put on the table and started rummaging through it.

After a while, a cone was pulled out of the bag.

I happily tore open the outer packaging and couldn't wait to eat it, smiling like an eighty-pound kid.

However, with a height of 1.47 meters and a childish-looking face, he does not seem to be very big. He is only fifteen or sixteen years old by visual inspection. There seems to be nothing wrong with calling him a child.

After eating the cone, the girl didn't hesitate and walked to the freezer next to the wall with the bag in hand.

Skillfully pull open the bottom layer and put the remaining ice cream in the bag one by one.

It was obvious that this wasn't the first time she'd done something like this.

There are freezers in the biology laboratory. This should be a normal thing.

It is normal to store ice cream in a freezer in a laboratory.

"Eat less cold drinks, as they are difficult to digest."

Lu Yan was only halfway through licking it, but the girl had already finished the cone in her hand, but she was still staring at the freezer eagerly.

"Okay, I know, I know, I'm not a child."

As soon as Lu Yan opened his mouth, the girl pouted and interrupted his next words.

She knew the power of Lu Yan's nagging. If no one interrupted him, he could talk for an hour or two, just like an old woman.

After a while, the heat in Lu Yan's body slowly subsided, and there was only the small wooden stick left in his hand.

Lu Yan then left from under the air conditioner, walked to the only experimental table with traces of use in the entire laboratory, and threw the wooden stick into the trash can at his feet.

"Did you do that person in the western suburbs?"

As he spoke, Lu Yan took off his sleeves, hat, and mask, arranged them and put them aside.

Open the faucet on the sink in one step, and carefully clean every corner of your hands with professional disinfectant.

His expression didn't change at all during the whole process, and he didn't look back at the girl, as if he was just chatting with her.

"Ah, you know it so quickly."

The girl secretly stuck out her tongue at Lu Yan's back.

He took out a bag of red stuff from his small bag and threw it directly at Lu Yan's back.

Just when the bag was about to hit the back of Lu Yan's head, as if time was suddenly pressed on the pause button, the bag suddenly stopped and stopped firmly in mid-air behind Lu Yan.

Then, under the control of unknown forces, the bag consciously bypassed Lu Yan and landed on the experimental table in front of him.

Only at this moment can we see clearly that the bag contains liquid, a scarlet liquid that looks very much like blood in movies and TV shows.

And this bag looks like a medical blood bag.

It’s self-evident what’s inside.
