Faced with Zayne's question, Kurt replied, "I don't know where Damien and Henry are, but I've seen Alan at the computer lab last night. I don't know where he is now."
The info Kurt gave him wasn't much, but it was better than nothing.
Zayne no longer has to wander aimlessly and can narrow down his search area. However, he might have to switch targets and find Alan first.
Just as Zayne was about to leave, Kurt suddenly thought of something and reminded him, "Wait! We discovered zombies contain white crystals inside their brains."
"We don't know what they are, and not all zombies have them, but we decided it's better to collect them since they might have some use."
Zayne nodded and used his metal chains to pierce the skulls of zombies, extracting the white crystals from their brains.
Among the forty-two zombies, only eighteen have a white crystal inside their brains, so it wasn't that common.
While Zayne had shifted his attention to examining the white crystals, Kurt and the students gathered around the injured female student from before.
They were all from the same class, and they only fought the zombies to save Jude. Even then, they were still a step too late, and Jude got bitten by a zombie.
They didn't have the cure or even a talent that could cure viruses.
So even when seeing Jude gasp for her breath and her veins bulging, seemingly about to turn into a zombie, they were helpless.
Zayne could use his sealing ability to seal the zombie virus and take it out of her body.
Since he had acquired the power of the Fairy King of Sealing Fairy Fruit, Zayne was no longer worried about the zombies and their zombie virus.
Simply put, the sea monster mutation caused by devouring the Sea Origin Energy of a 5 km Leviathan was much more volatile than a mere zombie virus, and it wasn't even close.
Although he wasn't near any bodies of water and had his Leviathan Tempering Path weakened, Zayne still knew that with the durability of his body, those zombies couldn't bite through his skin.
Moreover, even if the zombie virus entered his body, it would be easily eliminated by the sea origin energy inside his body.
And before he had that durability, he had relied on his Fairy Fruit to seal the sea monster mutation, so he could do the same with the zombie virus.
'Since I've already saved them, might as well go all the way.'
As soon as Zayne had that thought, he wasn't indecisive and immediately created a metal chain with a sharp tip.
Without waiting for their reaction, Zayne immediately controlled the metal chain, plunging the sharp tip into Jade's bleeding arm.
"Ghk—!"
Jade groaned in pain, but she was too weak to even resist. The zombie virus she contracted was fighting with her body's immune system, so she could barely move much.
Her body's temperature had risen. And if she wasn't treated soon enough, she'll undoubtedly become a zombie.
Although Jade's friends, as well as Kurt, could move and stop Zayne, they didn't, as they knew he didn't mean any harm.
The metal chain that Zayne used was recently conjured and wasn't the one he used to kill zombies. Moreover, if Zayne wanted to kill Jade, he could just plunge it directly into her skull, not into her bleeding arm.
They didn't know what Zayne's innate talent was, and they didn't dare ask him. Just knowing he wasn't hostile to them was enough.
Noticing that Kurt and the others were well-behaved, Zayne's mood became better, and he didn't hesitate to use his sealing ability, sealing the zombie virus inside Jade's body.
The zombie virus had already infected her entire body, and some of them had even entered her brain, so she wasn't far from turning.
Fortunately, Zayne could control the things he sealed, so he gathered the zombie virus he sealed into the sharp metal tip, storing it inside.
After aspirating the zombie virus, Zayne discarded the sharp metal tip containing the zombie virus and stored it in his system inventory.
Looking at the wound on Jade's arm that was still bleeding, Zayne decided to take out a healing fish scale paste and wiped her arm with it.
He didn't use his hand, but a metal hand he conjured. The healing fish scale paste was one of the items he obtained from the Global Ocean Survival World, along with the fairy fruits and raft upgrade materials.
He had plenty of it, but it was useless to him since his Stage 5 Abyss Sovereign Body possessed self-healing capabilities that were even more potent when submerged in water or eating Sea Origin Energy-rich food.
While he was wiping Jade's bleeding arm, Zayne was stunned when he heard a notification sound in his mind.
-Ding!
[After sufficient close contact, the system has detected that the individual named Jade Willows possessed an SSS-rank innate talent.]
[Host, kill her if possible! It has been detected by the system that an SSS-rank innate talent contains enough energy to reduce the simulation cooldown by 7 days!]
[In other words, the host can start another doomsday life simulation after sacrificing her SSS-rank innate talent!]
