With the white-haired girl's explanation, Mu Liang slowly understood what the 'infection of the phantom ghost' was. He also understood why Liyue was so sensitive to the red lines on her face.
It turned out that the 'infection of the phantom ghost' was an infectious disease, a disease that could only live for ten years…or even shorter.
When the time was up, the infected represented death, or a monster that lived in another form: Void Ghosts.
The Void Ghosts were twisted monsters.
They were crazy, violent, withered, and inhuman…monsters that only ate living things.
Infected people would not be infected. They would only be infected if they were bitten or scratched by a Virtual Ghost.
However, the infected were still ostracized, hated, and expelled.
Liyue was in such a harsh environment, chasing after the Angelic Wings that could cure the 'infection of the phantom ghosts'.
"Why do I feel like a zombie?”After hearing this, Mu Liang thought of the zombie movies on Earth.
There was still a ten year incubation period for a phantom to bite or injure, but a zombie bite only had a few minutes of incubation.
"What are zombies?" Liyue blinked blankly.
"It's a monster that's even more terrifying than a Void Ghost.”Mu Liang casually replied perfunctorily.
He looked at the red lines on the white-haired girl's cheeks and reached out to touch them.
"No, don't." Liyue lowered her head, feeling inferior.
"You said that infected people won't infect others.”Mu Liang lifted the white-haired girl's chin.
"But…everyone is afraid." Liyue bit her lower lip, her silver-white eyes erratic.
"At least…I'm not afraid.”Mu Liang raised his hand and caressed the scarlet lines on the white-haired girl's cheek.
As he touched it, he commented,"Yes, it's still a little hot. The lines are a little hard, like a soft rubber pipe.”
"Huh? What a strange way of saying it." Liyue's pretty face flushed red, her silver-white eyes filled with embarrassment.
The mischievous hand on her face made the white girl feel warm.
It was as if a layer of uneasiness had been removed from her heart, making her feel unprecedentedly at ease.
The white-haired girl's memories were filled with people's disgusted gazes, deceiving words, and disdainful expressions.
At this moment, a figure called Mu Liang had cleared out more than half of them.
"Mu Liang, you should let go." Mi Nuo pouted and shouted in dissatisfaction.
The rabbit-eared girl started to hide behind Mu Liang, quietly listening to the white-haired girl's words.
Next, she saw Mu Liang touching the white-haired girl's face. For some reason, she felt a wave of discomfort in her heart.
" Cough cough…" Mu Liang coughed lightly.
He was a little reluctant to let go. After all, the girl's cheeks were a little soft, like a pressure relief toy.
"No wonder. I was wondering why I felt a little strange.”Mu Liang muttered.
He finally understood that the white-haired girl had misunderstood…that Mu Liang was someone who knew about the 'infection of the Void Ghost'.
Otherwise, with the white-clothed girl's heart that had been broken by someone, how could she get along so easily with Mu Liang? She could even let him pinch her face now.
"No wonder what?"
Mi Nuo Rabbit's ears trembled slightly. She leaned over and asked,""Mu Liang, did you discover something?”
The rabbit-eared girl pitied the white-haired girl's treatment and was no longer so timid towards her.
A young girl with a lot of tricks suddenly knew that she was going to die, and she was going to be suppressed and discriminated against by the people around her.
Mi Nuo knew how painful it was just by thinking about it.
"Is there a problem?" Liyue slowly recovered from her shyness, similarly wanting to know what she had discovered.
"Liyue, you said you only have half a year left.”
Mu Liang felt that there was no need to explain the misunderstanding.
"Is it almost the ten-year deadline?" he asked, changing the subject.”
"No, I was infected less than five years ago.”
Liyue pursed her lips and said softly," I'm using the ability I obtained from the 'infection of the phantom ghost.' That's why I was infected faster.”
"The infection of the Phantom Ghosts can grant people abilities?”Mu Liang asked in surprise.
"Yes, you will obtain some special abilities, similar to the abilities of mutants.”
Liyue looked at Mi Nuo's rabbit ears enviously and said with a complicated tone,""The price of using the special ability is to accelerate the infection of the Phantom Ghosts.”
"The ability of an infected person is actually similar to a mutated person?”
Mu Liang raised his eyebrows in surprise, turning his head to look at the dazed rabbit-eared girl.
Why did he feel that the two should be related?
It was as if mutants were the product of successful evolution, while the Virtual Ghosts were defective products of failed evolution.
"My ability is Eagle Vision." Liyue displayed her ability.
The white-haired girl's pupils turned into a pair of eagle eyes, sharp as the sky.
The scarlet lines on Liyue's face seemed to be alive as they slowly spread to the skin beside her.
"Alright, stop." Mu Liang hurriedly raised his hand and pressed down.
"With the healing of Angel's Tear, it's fine to use my ability.”Liyue's words were exceptionally relaxed and lively.
Mu Liang stared at the white-haired girl and asked seriously,""Are you sure that the dew condensed from Angelic Wings can cure the infection of the Phantom Ghosts?”
"I, I'm not too sure either. I heard it from my companions.”
Liyue's tone became less confident as Mu Liang's black eyes stared at her.
"Then let's try." Mu Liang didn't forget that he also had the ability of Angel's Tear.
"I can't try it now. Angelic Wings takes ten days to condense a drop of Angel's Tear.”
As Liyue spoke, she looked down at the white winged flower in the wooden bucket in her arms.
"Do you remember what I told you before?”Mu Liang asked confidently.
"What words?" Liyue's silver-white eyes were filled with confusion.
"Nothing is impossible." The corners of Mu Liang's mouth curled up.
Activate Angel's Tear.
Mu Liang activated his ability, and a brief introduction of the ability appeared in his mind.
[Angel's Tear's ability: Consumes Stamina and Spirit to condense a drop of dew that can remove negative statuses and restore a certain amount of vitality.]
The cooldown time was the same as Angelic Wings, 10 days long.
Evolving Angelic Wings could reduce the cooldown time and increase the effect of Angel's Tears.
"This is the first 'wet nurse' ability I have.”
Mu Liang flipped his palm upwards, and a drop of emerald green dew slowly condensed in his palm.
"Eh? It's so fragrant." Mi Nuo licked the corner of her lips.
"Mu Liang, don't tell me that the emerald green water droplet in your palm is the Angel's Tear?”Liyue asked in disbelief.
"Uh-huh! It's exactly what you think."
Mu Liang raised his hand to the white-haired girl's lips and urged,""Quickly open your mouth and drink it. Try the effects of the Angel's Tear.”
