47: Chapter 43 Changes 47: Chapter 43 Changes Like a ravenous infant that has filled up on breast milk,
No longer crying, no longer tossing and turning, no longer moving, but instead quietly falls asleep,
Quietly absorbing nutrition and thus growing.
All the neurological pathways invading Luo Di’s arms were retracted, along with the zombification effect, even the Suppressant didn’t need to be injected.
The entire blade even became more “obedient” than before absorbing blood.
That grim skin covering the blade began to fade, retreating to the handle to form a wrapped bandage that increases grip friction.
Zombie Blade surprisingly reverted to its original machete appearance, almost no different from when Luo Di first bought it from the supermarket.
Even the “Corner” aura it should have emitted had vanished.
Director Wang also widened his Eyes, pushing up his glasses to take a closer look, “Lurking and hiding…
did it really inherit the characteristics of that spider?
You really found a treasure, I didn’t expect this zombie’s blood absorption to be so effective~ Logically, Pseudo-Persons can’t consume each other, is it an effect brought on by mutation?
Due to his excessive excitement, Luo Di spoke more than usual, “It’s more controllable, now it seems that I don’t need to offer blood myself, just through the transmission of thoughts I can trigger the ‘switch’ on this blade.”
“Can you demonstrate it for us on the spot?
Let us see the true nature of this thing.”
Director Wang seemed to have returned to his initial days in the Investigation Bureau, his serious face covered by his pursuit of knowledge.
As Luo Di concentrated his mind on his right hand holding the blade, sending a command of slaughter to the pituitary inside the blade.
The skin wrapping around the handle immediately began to move, covering the blade again, only the shape presented was different.
Several tufts of sinister black fur actually grew from the back of the blade, even emanating a semblance of being a living thing,
but two white teeth-like structures also appeared on the surface of the blade, representing “zombie teeth”, seemingly able to achieve better blood absorption characteristics during chopping.
Black fur, corpse skin, and white teeth,
Various characteristics of living creatures fell upon this weapon, just looking at it made people feel uneasy, as if the blade could bite on its own.
this has exceeded our expectations.
This blade is very valuable, and you can also carry it with you due to its inherent concealment properties, next time you encounter a similar anomaly, you might actually be able to seriously injure the opponent if you are well-prepared.”
“Thank you, Director Wang.”
To others, it might be a terrifying object, yet it completely satisfied Luo Di’s aesthetic and inner desires,
From the moment the first blood was poured onto the surface of the blade, his Eyes never left it,
Feeling the changes in the blade and its increasingly powerful killing effects, Luo Di seemed to have taken a step closer to his life goals.
Although he really wanted to try its chopping effects immediately, he did not wield the weapon here, to avoid affecting his newly met friends.
All zombie characteristics faded, and the blade once again hid back to its initial form.
Just in case, Luo Di still used a shroud to wrap it and tucked it back into his backpack, thus concluding today’s affairs at the Research Bureau.
Before leaving, Director Wang still couldn’t hold back the words buried in his heart.
“I am not in human resources, nor do I like doing things that are against the rules.
But I still want to say, if you have thoughts about this year’s Admissions, you can apply to our Research Bureau.
I can help you obtain special entry benefits, and you can choose any department you like.
Even if you are not satisfied with the work at the Research Bureau, you can also use our place as a stepping stone to go to the Capital City.
As an organization at the city level, we naturally also hold a ticket to the World Bureau.”
However, Luo Di did not answer directly, just nodded and left.
“Director, this young man…”
The staff member responsible for delivering the blood showed a complex expression, as he himself didn’t know how much effort it took to enter the City Research Bureau in his time.
“It’s also normal, his personality is more suited for the Investigation Bureau or the major companies in the Capital City, our research-focused place really isn’t ideal for him.
I was just whimsically mentioning it.
It seems, the mid-year Admissions will be quite interesting.”
Outside the Investigation Bureau,
The class leader walked at the front of the group with light dance steps, and when his toes touched the last step, he turned around to look at his companions.
“I’m so satisfied, being able to see such Cornered Tool props before graduation.
Luo Di, your admissions results this year will definitely shock everyone, you might even outperform the elites from First Middle School. Updates are released by N0veI.Fiɾe.net
Alright, you guys go eat something tonight, I need to go home and continue my tutoring.”
Luo Di proactively asked, “Class leader, have your clothes arrived?”
“Oh right~ But that kind of outfit isn’t really suitable to wear out directly, I’ve kept it at home for now.
I’ll wear it to school after the winter vacation ends, then you’ll see it.”
“Of course, it’s beyond expectations, I’ll wear it during the admission test too, Luo Di, you better not lose to me.”
The conversation between the two was fully observed by Anna who was following behind them; she seemed to smell a sour and stinky scent and quickly covered her nose to avoid it, “Thank goodness I don’t go to the same school as you, or I would eventually be suffocated.”
Anna also deliberately glanced at Little Gao with glasses at the side, but found that Little Gao was actually very enthusiastic, and there seemed to be a hint of relief between his eyes and smile.
As the rideshare car took the class leader away, the trio casually found a nearby restaurant.
Without the class leader’s presence, the atmosphere was obviously not as lively as their first gathering, but as Anna had a few beers, the atmosphere gradually warmed up.
The winter vacation came to an end.
The second half of senior year had arrived as scheduled, marking the last phase of school life.
Although there was still the option to pursue university studies after Admissions, most students, including Luo Di, who achieved average or above in physical education, chose not to pursue further university studies.
On the eve of school reopening, inside Fourth Middle School.
The teaching staff had already arrived early, preparing for the start of the school year to ensure that students could enter school normally tomorrow.
In the comprehensive office of the senior third grade,
A male teacher with a gentle face and thin build, clearly not adept at sports, was organizing miscellaneous items at the workstation on the edge.
The pile of books and documents on his desk was the most in the entire office, including some unrelated to teaching.
Suddenly, a sharp and rapid footsteps entered the office,
Black high-heeled shoes, over ten centimeters, walked directly towards this male teacher and slammed a document in front of him.
The job badge worn on her body indicated her position—[Director of Academic Affairs].
Perhaps, this job badge wasn’t even necessary to discern that from her appearance.
She forcefully tapped the document on the table, her words as sharp as nails shot from the tip of her tongue, “Mr.
Guo, can you explain this?
Last term, your class’s cultural course grade was second to last, and student satisfaction was the lowest.
Haven’t we discussed this teaching issue before?”
Faced with the director’s serious accusation, the frail Mr.
Guo did not respond but continued organizing the books on his desk.
This silence precisely ignited the fuse on the Director of Academic Affairs,
As she looked at the various books on the desk unrelated to teaching, she prepared to sweep them all off in one go.
But just as she reached out,
A strong arm reached out and grabbed her.
A man in military uniform with a resolute face stood aside, stopping the escalating conflict.
Guo’s teaching methods may be unconventional, but they have their own characteristics; I believe he will make adjustments based on the current foundation.”
Though still furious, the Academic Affairs Director soon realized her actions were somewhat excessive, “It seems I can’t manage you anymore, I will report the situation to the principal.”
As the Director left, the atmosphere in the entire office also became more relaxed.
Guo expressed his gratitude.
The military-uniformed Mr.
Ruan simply waved his hand and returned to his own workstation; he was the homeroom teacher and still had a lot of work to do.
