God's Gift

Fang Ziang looked at Odin, whose lips were blue and whose face was pale, and said, "So, he might not be very lucky."

"The medicine is no longer effective now." Ye Li looked at Odin, whose breathing was gradually failing, and pressed his fingers unconsciously, then asked Anthony:

"Did he touch anything just now?"

"We have been walking in front and haven't encountered anything." Anthony thought carefully and indeed did not see anything unusual with Odin.

A member of the Blue Dragon standing nearby suddenly spoke up: "Odin was scratching his hand just now. It seems he was stung by a glowing bug in the grass!"

"Glowing bugs?" Yu Youyou suddenly repeated.

Lu Keming heard Yu Youyou talking and looked at her, "Youyou, what's wrong?"

Yu Youyou put her palm on her pocket, smiled and shook her head as if nothing had happened, "Nothing, I saw a lot of glowing bugs in the grass by the roadside just now."

"There are quite a lot of them along the way."

As she spoke, there was more regret in her tone, "There are some good-looking ones."

Seeing the light flashing in Yu Youyou's eyes, Lu Keming narrowed his eyes and scanned Yu Youyou up and down, "Youyou, you didn't..."

"I wasn't bitten!" Yu Youyou answered immediately, but such a quick answer seemed to be trying to cover up the truth, and Lu Keming's eyes darkened.

Yu Youyou looked at Lu Keming's serious expression, then smiled and approached Lu Keming, whispering, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Looking at Yu Youyou's fearless appearance, Lu Keming felt a little headache.

“Even if…” Lu Keming concealed the rest of the words, bent down and placed his hands on Yu Youyou’s shoulders, and whispered:

"We don't know the situation here yet. Any creature here may be dangerous. You can't just rely on your ability and do whatever you want, okay?"

Yu Youyou blinked and stared at Lu Keming, but did not answer immediately.

Because she could not experience it firsthand, the crisis of humanity was something she had never understood.

Disasters that can easily destroy humans are of no concern to them.

But Lu Keming cares a lot.

When my mother was still alive, she would also be extremely nervous if she was electrocuted by an electric eel, had her fins bitten by small fish while she was sleeping, or was swept away by the waves, just like Lu Keming now.

But mom’s life was too short;

This feeling was too distant in her memory, as if it was an unreachable memory, making Yu Youyou feel as if she had returned to the time when she was just born.

The mother, who would feel sad and blame herself for any minor injury, was always worried about the little fish that was playing outside and didn't come home for a long time, and she would patiently remind the little fish not to go to dangerous places and not to fight with other fish.

In fact, Yu Youyou was really fine. Her father, who had the same experience, never thought there was any danger for her, but her mother was always cautious.

But she really likes this kind of nagging mother.

She vaguely knew that this was human "love."

Yu Youyou stared at Lu Keming intently, but suddenly laughed, her curved eyes full of smiles.

Lu Keming's originally serious expression was stunned for a second because of Yu Youyou's sudden smile. The lines on his face gradually softened. He placed his hand on Yu Youyou's cheek, rubbing his hot thumb tip on Yu Youyou's face, and his voice sounded a little complaining.

"Why are you always like this?"

His beautiful eyes like gems stared straight at Yu Youyou.

These eyes, which had been cold and ruthless for years, were now like melting spring water, flashing with cool ripples, and affection was spreading in the water, enough to make the person he fell in love with drown in the swamp.

But Lu Keming still remembered what happened just now, and he reminded:

"Youyou, we are married now."

Yu Youyou looked into Lu Keming's eyes, tilted her head slightly, smiled and said, "I know."

Lu Keming took Yu Youyou's hand and turned it, placing his palm facing Yu Youyou's palm and interlocking their fingers tightly.

"So now everything about us is so closely connected that I can't accept the possibility of anything happening to you."

"Don't catch these bugs." Lu Keming hesitated for a moment, then added, "If you like, I'll have someone catch them for you when we get back."

After a while, Lu Keming added another sentence.

"Just... don't eat them."

Yu Youyou's gaze shifted to her and Lu Keming's tightly clasped hands, and her eyelashes trembled, "Okay, I won't catch the bugs."

Lu Keming nodded and was about to continue speaking when a voice came from beside him.

“Haha…” When their eyes met, Anthony, who had been watching for a long time, laughed awkwardly, “As long as Yu Youyou… Young Madam wasn’t bitten…”

"So now... can we talk about that bug?"

Anthony's eyes fell on Odin lying on the ground. He had stopped breathing, vomit surrounded him, and his eyes were tightly closed.

The warm blood in his veins stagnated and turned cold, and his originally rosy and healthy skin quickly turned pale and purple under the gaze of the people around him. The internal organs in his body were rotting at a speed dozens of times faster, and his stomach swelled up, and the gas inside almost burst his belly.

The foul smell emanated from Odin's nose and mouth, causing everyone to step back.

Fang Ziang's urge to vomit, which had just subsided, began to surge again. He covered his mouth and backed away repeatedly.

Anthony frowned and turned to look at Ye Li, who knew something about this type of disease, with worry in his eyes.

"Odin has been eliminated now, but I just touched Odin, will I be infected too?"

This is the graduation test. If he is eliminated now, he will have to repeat the year.

Ye Li replied: "I need to find out what kind of bug it is and what type of encephalitis it is."

Anthony recalled the glowing bugs he had seen before, and felt a headache coming on. He said in despair, "But those bugs have never existed in our world. I don't know what they are."

When Anthony mentioned insects again, Yu Youyou stood aside as quiet as a chicken.

She glanced at Lu Keming and saw that he was not looking at her at this moment. She quickly took out the glowing insect from her pocket, then clenched her palms and crushed the insect to death in her hands.

"I didn't expect you to be so amazing."

Yu Youyou muttered a few words to the dead insect, then threw it to the ground and moved her foot over to step on it.

The movements were smooth and no one noticed.

When everyone was at a loss as to the identity of the bug, the intelligent computer brought news from the leader.

[Mutation Files

Codename: Firefly

Danger factor: Weak

Introduction: A variant of Culex mosquito, it is tiny in size and is characterized by its bioluminescent body. It is distributed in the restricted area of ​​the second ring of the City of Despair all year round. It feeds on sunlight, so it is often active on sunny days.

It is worth noting that since it is a mutation of Culex mosquitoes, it can be used as a vector for various infectious diseases. If you encounter fireflies while in the City of Despair, please stay away from them as much as possible. ]

"It should be Japanese encephalitis." Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief after reading the news from the leader. "This type of encephalitis is usually spread through mosquito bites. We should be fine."

"But the disease progresses faster here." Lu Keming looked at Odin, whose chest was no longer rising and falling and whose pupils were dilated. "From the time Odin fell to his death, it took no more than five minutes."

"This place is really weird." Shen Minghua said solemnly, "Odin has been eliminated. We can't continue to waste time here."

"But how can we avoid these fireflies?" Ye Li looked at the densely growing weeds and flowers on the street ahead.

Looking at everyone who was at a loss, Fang Ziang silently took out a few bottles of mosquito repellent spray from the storage space and handed them to the front.

"Maybe this will work."

Everyone looked at the mosquito repellent spray in Fang Ziang's hand, "Isn't it a mutant creature? Will this work?"

Fang Ziang looked at the student who questioned him and rolled his eyes.

"Whether they mutate or not, it turns out that they are not all mosquitoes. I just said to give it a try. You can decide for yourself whether to try it or not."
