Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies

Chapter 332: Mutation, Awakening



The moment Yao Ran heard Huang Zhihui's words, her eyes flickered. She asked, "What happened?"

Huang Zhihui hurriedly replied, "I have no time to explain. Elder Sister Yao Ran, quick! We must go to the infirmary now!"

Seeing her urgency, Yao Ran locked her door and said, "Let's go."

The two of them hurried to the infirmary. As they approached, Yao Ran could hear the commotion from a distance.

"Hold him down!" Li Tianyu shouted, pinning a soldier to the ground.

"Captain Li, be careful!" Another soldier reminded Li Tianyu as he saw another soldier rushing toward him.

When Yao Ran arrived, she saw Long Yu and Li Tianyu restraining two soldiers with red eyes and acting crazy while others were tying them up with ropes.

Long Yu's eyes lit up when he saw her and said, "Ran Ran, quick! Come and take a look at them."

Understanding the urgency of checking on them, Yao Ran rushed to the two crazy soldiers.

She squatted beside one of the soldiers and quickly examined him. When she saw that the injuries on his body had turned black, her expression darkened.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Yao Ran raised her eyes to look at the others and said, "The deformed monsters injured him, accelerating the mutation and deformation in his body. I need to clean the wounds immediately to control the deformation. Bring them to the beds and tie them up."

As her words sank in, the expressions of the other injured soldiers grew grim.

Seeing them still standing there, Long Yu said, "What are you guys doing there? Come and help bring them to the ward."

Snapping out of their daze, the others quickly carried the two soldiers into one of the infirmary rooms.

Once the soldiers were securely tied, Yao Ran said, "Everyone, please step outside."

Knowing that doctors needed quiet to work, everyone except Long Yu left the ward. After the door closed, Yao Ran took out a bottle of lake water from her space and fed it to the two soldiers. After they drank two mouthfuls, she disinfected her hands and the surgical tools with alcohol.

Putting on a surgical mask and gloves, she carefully cut away the rotten flesh from their wounds with a scalpel, squeezed out the black liquid, and cleaned the injuries with alcohol before rinsing them again with the lake water.

As the lake water touched the wounds, the remaining rotten flesh fell off, and the black liquid that was seeping out from the wounds gradually transformed into red blood. Within ten seconds, new flesh, muscle, and skin began forming, and the wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Two minutes later, the soldiers were fully healed. Seeing their flushed faces, Yao Ran took out a thermometer from her medicine box and checked their temperatures.

After seeing the result, she turned to Long Yu and said, "They have a fever. They may be in the process of awakening their abilities."

Hearing this, Long Yu looked at the unconscious soldiers and asked, "What happened to them earlier?"

Yao Ran paused for a moment before replying, "A Yu, let's discuss this with the others."

Noticing the worry in her eyes, Long Yu nodded, "Alright."

When the two of them stepped out of the ward, they found the others waiting anxiously. As soon as they saw Yao Ran and Long Yu, they hurried over.

"How are they?" Li Tianyu asked worriedly.

"They are awakening their abilities right now." Yao Ran calmly replied.

Her words stunned everyone.

After a long silence, Huang Qian asked in surprise, "So they were acting crazy because they are awakening their abilities? But why didn't any of you behave like this when you awakened your abilities?"

Yao Ran shook her head, "Their madness is not due to the awakening of abilities but due to the process of mutation and transformation. They are now having a high fever, which is caused by the process of awakening their abilities. It may take hours or even days for them to regain consciousness."

Seeing their confusion, she explained, "I discovered deep injuries on their bodies caused by the deformed monsters. The flesh around the wounds had rotted, and their blood had turned into black, sticky liquid."

Hearing this, Shi Xuan's expression darkened. He frowned and asked, "Are you saying... they are turning into deformed monsters because of the injuries?"

Yao Ran replied, "That's partly correct, but not entirely."

"What do you mean?" Jia Xiang asked.

Yao Ran looked at them and said, "As far as I know, there are two ways deformed monsters are created. The first is when humans suffer from nuclear radiation, and their contaminated bodies mutate into monsters. The second is when monsters are born from the accumulation of radioactive waste."

"The deformed monsters attacking us today belong to the second type. Their bodies contain high levels of radiation, which can be transferred to others when their bodily fluids or flesh come into contact with the DNA of living beings through wounds."

Seeing the solemn expressions on others' faces, she paused for a moment before continuing, "What happened to those two soldiers inside is due to the second-type monsters. The monsters injured them, and their DNA is now changing."

Listening intently to her explanation, Li Tianyu fell into deep thought.

After he thought about it, he asked in confusion, "Then how did they suddenly begin awakening abilities instead of mutating into deformed monsters?"

Yao Ran replied, "I fed them the deformation medicine. Thankfully, it wasn't too late. After the deformation was cured, they developed a high fever, which is the initial sign of ability

awakening."

She sighed and added, "Now, all we can do is wait. Whether they wake up or not depends entirely on their willpower. I have done what I can by giving them medicine; the rest is up to them to overcome the ability awakening process themselves."

Hearing this, Li Tianyu thought of the other soldiers and asked, "Miss Yao, can you check on my other brothers?"
