Aromatic Flesh-Chapter 71.1: Cannon Fodder In The Post-Apocalyptic World (1)

“Cough cough… Um, what’s going on?!” Gu MingYue’s throat had never felt so dry and itchy, and the first thing she did after regaining consciousness was to cough with such vigour that she wondered if her lungs would burst out of her throat.

She covered her mouth as she inspected the clothes she was in with tears in her eyes – it was a long dress that was so dirty that the original colour could not be guessed. There were also large swaths of dark brown marks on the skirt, which carried a disgusting nausea-inducing stench.

Not only that, but Gu MingYue clearly felt that this body was unusually swollen, and her joints were unimaginably stiff and inflexible. It actually took a lot of effort just to cover her mouth as she coughed. However, the most incredible thing was that though her new body was covered with horrific scars of all sizes, they were actually healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

W…What kind of monstrous body was she given this time!

This was the first time that the system’s explanation was interrupted by such static and losing contact with Gu MingYue even before the announcement was completed.

Ah, whatever. She should be used to this crappy system. It had always stayed silent and almost nonexistent after assigning her mission, without even providing a golden finger1. To think that it’s not even functional now…

Gu MingYue was slightly worried for her future, as she did not want to be informed that after finishing all the missions with such desperation, only to find out that the system was broken, hence making all her previous efforts in vain.

“Roar!” “Roarrrr!” Hoarse and rough roars could be heard around her.

What is that? Gu MingYue’s brows were furrowed deeply into a frown. She could tell that she was currently in a dark corner of a supermarket, however, there was no lighting at all and there were rows of empty shelves in front of her. In fact, the supermarket looked like it had been ransacked, with scattered goods everywhere on the ground. It was an absolute mess!

Uh… Why does it feel like she was in a horror movie? Gu MingYue’s scalp tingled nervously as a thought rose up in her mind. Please tell her it’s not that!

The continuous howling echoed around the supermarket, shaking her recovering eardrums loudly. Without another choice, Gu MingYue dragged her slightly more flexible body and slowly moved out of the corner before making her way steadily towards the sound. However, as soon as she laid eyes on the creature, she froze instantly in fright as she felt her heartbeat rise to her throat.

T…Those are z…zombies!!! Cold sweat dripped down Gu MingYue’s forehead as she stared in shock. She was pretty certain that the thing in front of her was the demonic undead that often appeared in movies and novels in the modern world. However, never in her life had she expected that the background of a mission world would be so terrifying!

The zombie exuding the stench of rotting corpses roared as they scuffled his way around stiffly, moving past the frozen Gu MingYue. The appearance of festering flesh and pus made it impossible to imagine what he had looked like as a human. Surprisingly, the zombie did not stop to spare a glance as passed Gu MingYue, as if completely ignoring her existence.

According to the movies and novels that Gu MingYue had read previously, there were only so many reasons why one would be ignored by zombies. The first one was that she had received an ability that allowed her to be hidden from zombies, and the second was that she had received certain specific vaccines that made a zombie judge her as their own. As for the third reason, which Gu MingYue felt to be most probable and can best explain the appearance of her new body, was that she was also a member of the zombies.

Transmigrating into a zombie… C…Could it be that the target mission was also a zombie?! H…Hey, hey! Where is the damn system! Please come out and explain this situation!

As if hearing her desperate calls, the system reappeared instantly and Gu MingYue felt the connection between her sea of consciousness and the system was re-established. However, she was pretty sure that she heard the system cough, which was too anthropomorphic… She had no idea that her system was as advanced as the ones in the novels she read.

The system gave a short explanation in response to her thoughts.

Gu MingYue had no comments in regard to the system’s supposed upgrade.

“What is the content of the mission in this world?”
