Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Occam picked Alice up directly and placed her on the bed.
“Occam, I… I feel terrible. Don’t leave.”
Just as Occam was about to leave with the blanket pulled over him, Alice grabbed Occam’s hand and said nervously.
“Don’t worry, I’ll always be here.”
Occam smiled and sat on the bed to comfort her.
As the T-Virus and the antibodies continued to fight, Alice fused more and more viral genes, and the changes in her body grew larger and larger.
During this period, she also had a high fever.
Occam could only pour some water on the towel and apply it to her.
Every time he was about to leave, Alice grabbed Occam’s hand in fear and refused to let go.
Helpless, Occam could only accompany her.
Alice’s condition only improved when night came.
Alice, who had been twitching in pain, finally relaxed her eyebrows and fell asleep.
Because he did not sleep well last night, Occam gradually became sleepy. He narrowed his eyes and fell asleep.
The next morning, a ray of sunlight shone down and Alice’s long eyelashes trembled a few times before she finally opened her eyes.
Alice opened her eyes and looked nervously to the side.
He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Occam was still there.
But thinking that Occam was actually sleeping beside her, she felt mixed emotions. There was sweetness, but mostly there was shyness.
Looking at the sleeping Occam, Alice rolled her eyes and slowly kissed Occam’s forehead while he was sleeping.
“Mm!”
Occam rolled over.
Alice shrank back like a frightened deer and pretended to close her eyes.
After a long time, seeing that Occam did not respond, she slowly opened her beautiful eyes.
This time, she reached out and gently scratched Occam’s nose.
Swoosh!
Occam suddenly opened his eyes. Alice looked into his eyes and was stunned. She did not expect that Occam had just woken up and was pretending to sleep.
Did that mean that her move earlier on had been discovered?
Alice blushed at the thought of that.
“Little demon, you actually dare to tease me. Watch how I deal with you.”
As Occam spoke, he went to tickle Alice’s armpit and let her have a taste of what it was like to be played by others.
“Hehehehehehe! Ah! No! It’s so itchy! I can’t take it anymore. I won’t dare to do it again.”
Alice seemed to have become more sensitive after being strengthened by the virus.
After tickling for a while, she laughed until tears came out and begged for mercy.
“Alright! On account of you begging for mercy, I’ll let you off for now.”
Occam let go when Alice begged for a long time.
Alice straightened her clothes and pouted. “I’m starving.”
“Alright, I’ll buy you breakfast now.”
Occam was in a good mood, so he did not argue. He got out of bed and went out to buy breakfast.
Soon, he bought some bread and milk.
Alice was probably famished. When she saw food, she completely disregarded the image of a lady and gobbled everything down.
Not long after, she finished all three sets of breakfast.
Occam had the foresight to buy two more sets. Otherwise, it would not have been enough for her to fill.
“Burp!”
After three sets of breakfast, Alice burped.
“Seeing as you ate so much like a little pig, you should be fine.”
Occam saw that Alice had such a good appetite, which meant the virus was working, so he teased her.
“You’re the one who ate a lot. You’re the one who’s like a little pig. Hmph!”
Seeing that Occam was comparing her to a little pig, Alice picked up the pillow beside her and threw it at Occam.
Occam did not care if the pillow hit him. He smiled and said, “How about it? Do you want to try your superpower?”
“Sure! But how do we test it?”
Alice was overjoyed and spoke excitedly.
“En! How about this! Try jumping up to the ceiling first.”
Occam thought for a moment and suggested the simplest High Jump test.
“Okay.”
Alice stepped on the carpet with her bare foot, looking especially sexy.
She tiptoed and extended her fingers, realizing that she was about two meters away from the ceiling.
Then, she bent down and jumped.
“Bang!”
“Ouch!”
Alice knocked into the three-meter-tall roof.
The entire room shook.
“Are you alright?”
Occam did not expect Alice’s strengthened body to be so powerful. He had only wanted her to jump up and touch the ceiling.
In the end, she jumped too high and hit the ceiling.
Worried that Alice was hurt, Occam hurried forward to check.
A huge bump appeared on Alice’s forehead.
“Boohoo! It’s all your fault. Why did you have to make me jump high? It hurt so much.”
Alice was in so much pain that she was crying. She looked at Occam, who looked aggrieved.
“Sorry, sorry. I didn’t expect you to hit the ceiling either!”
Hearing this, Occam hurriedly apologized. He had also tested his body’s constitution and it had increased significantly. However, he jumped up with all his might and could barely touch the roof.
“Yes! I can actually hit the ceiling! I can hit the ceiling. I’ve become stronger.”
Alice finally reacted to Occam’s reminder.
The ceiling was more than three meters tall! It was unbelievable that she could hit the ceiling when she jumped.
“Let’s go to the roof.”
Occam was very interested in Alice’s ability. He pulled her out and went upstairs.
They lived on the top floor, so they quickly reached the top.
As soon as they were on the roof, Occam pulled out a metal kerosene lighter. He clicked it open and said to Alice, “Try to control this flame.”
Occam knew that Alice had an ability that allowed her to control flames.
Back in the desert, she used this power to control the fire to kill the zombie crows.
He wanted to see how Alice, who had just integrated the T-Virus, was like.
“Control the flames? How?”
Alice looked confused when she heard this, not knowing how to control it.
Occam thought for a moment. “Use your mind, like this.”
After Occam finished speaking, the electromagnetic field unfolded. He controlled the electromagnetic field with his mind and used the magnetic field to affect the surrounding metal.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The metal pipes on the balcony seemed to have come alive and were twisted by him.
“Amazing, I’ll try it too.”
Alice seemed to find something when she saw this. She stared at the flames on the lighter in front of her and started to exert force.
“Yiyaya ~!!!”
Alice mumbled to the lighter for a long time until her face turned red.
However, the small flame in front of him did not move.
“Ah! No, it’s useless. I might not have psychic power at all.”
After a long time, Alice gave up. Psychic power? It must be a lie!
She tried for a long time but the small flame did not respond at all.
She even wondered if Occam was lying to her.
Meanwhile, in the kitchen on the first floor, “Eh! What’s with the fire in the furnace today? It swayed but there was no wind!”
The lady boss was making breakfast when she surprisingly found the flames of the stove continuously trembling. She had a puzzled expression and was about to go closer to take a look.
“Boom!”
The normal flames of the furnace suddenly increased.
The lady boss quickly turned off the fire, but her face was already charred black.
“Ah—”
