Chapter 189

"X-potion?" Rong Rong's expression changed, and she pointed to the monster on the computer screen. "To become a superhuman like that?"

"Of course not!" Su Ke shook his head. "That monster didn't use the real X-potion at all; it was a semi-finished product!"

Su Ke is a student at Peking University who just graduated last year. He had many research achievements during his time at the university, and successfully published a paper in Science when he was a junior.

He is the youngest person to publish a paper in the history of Science, almost 10 years younger than Fang Jianming when he appeared in Science.

After Su Ke came to this research institute, he was always one step ahead of Fang Jianming.

The most valuable research results in the entire institute all came from Su Ke.

Of course, he didn't come here voluntarily; he was kidnapped.

Whether or not he discovers anything, those innocent people who are captured will be subjected to various experiments.

In order to reduce the suffering of some people, Su Ke could only work hard to produce results as soon as possible, so that fewer people would be tormented.

The mature version of the X-potion was actually developed when zombies first appeared.

However, Su Ke had a premonition that if such a drug fell into the hands of the people behind the research institute, it would cause a huge disaster.

He tampered with the research records of the X drug and handed over the semi-finished product to the people at the research institute.

Soon, the research institute was completely overrun, and even the mastermind behind it all turned into a zombie. Su Ke was prepared for this.

He had long ago begun to consciously stockpile food and water, and had even secretly moved his laboratory to a secret room.

On the day the research institute fell, he immediately hid in a secret room and successfully survived until now.

However, Su Ke thought his fate would be to die from running out of food.

Because the entire research institute was full of evolved zombies, especially the floor he was on, there was no way he could get through the horde of zombies and leave alive.

Not to mention that Nuwa is also outside.

The result was unexpected; a goddess was sent from heaven, and he was saved!

But......

The goddess didn't trust his potion and dared not use it. He wanted the goddess to become a superhuman as well, and he wanted to give her the best of everything.

Su Ke turned around, grabbed a syringe, drew the X-drug from his hand, and injected it directly into his arm.

"There won't be any problems." Su Ke looked at Rong Rong seriously, and after injecting a quarter of the medicine, he removed the needle. Then he changed to a new needle and waved it at Rong Rong, "Want to try it?"

Rong Rong looked at Su Ke in surprise, feeling that he was both reckless and stupid.

"Are you a superhuman? What kind of superhuman?" Rong Rong asked, while carefully observing Su Ke's situation. She also instructed 666 to be ready to switch items at any time so that she could deal with the situation promptly should Su Ke turn into a monster.

“I have spatial abilities,” Su Ke replied. He had injected himself with the X-potion as soon as it was invented.

He immediately awakened his spatial abilities, which made it much easier for him to store food later on.

"Want to give it a try? Your friend needs help," Su Ke asked Rong Rong again.

Before Rong Rong could reply, 666 spoke first, "Host, give it a try. If there's a problem with this potion, we'll use another tool to detoxify!"

With 666 as her guarantee, Rong Rong finally stopped hesitating and wanted to try what it was like to become a superhuman.

"What kind of superpower you awaken depends entirely on your individual constitution." Su Ke carefully inserted the acupuncture needles into Rong Rong, and it took a lot of effort to keep his hands from shaking.

He used to be very skilled at it!

Su Ke frowned and finally pushed all the medicine into Rong Rong's body.

Rong Rong didn't feel anything, unlike naturally awakened superhumans who would have a fever or become weak when they awakened.

Coincidentally, after Rong Rong finished, Xiao Mingxu and his group also successfully killed the monster.

"Go outside and check!" Rong Rong didn't care whether she had awakened any special abilities; she was anxious to go out and make sure everyone was safe.

This time, they went through another hidden door and arrived at the laboratory where Xiao Mingxu and the others were.

"Rong Rong!" Wang Tao exclaimed in surprise, almost bursting into tears. "That bastard Ling Xi, I thought he ran away with you!"

"That's about it, but Dr. Su Ke saved me."

Rong Rong pointed at Su Ke, who touched his nose, put his hand in his pocket, took it out again, and then put it back in. After several back and forth, he finally spoke, "Hello."

"Another perverted researcher?" Wang Tao jumped up, pulled Rong Rong away from Su Ke, and Xiao Mingxu took a few steps forward, looking at Su Ke warily.

"I, I'm not." Su Ke waved his hands repeatedly, his long hair covering most of his face, so no one could see that his face was already flushed red.

Having only ever stayed in his room reading and doing experiments since childhood, he was not used to interacting with outsiders.

Su Ke nervously gripped his pants, unsure how to explain himself to make the group believe him, but in reality, his behavior had already lowered Xiao Mingxu and the others' guard.

A simple, honest, and socially awkward researcher.

Everyone immediately formed a judgment about Su Ke.

Just as Xiao Mingxu was about to ask something else, a loud thud rang out. Everyone looked over and saw Yin Wang lying on the ground, clutching his arm and rolling around in pain.

Rong Rong rushed forward and asked anxiously, "Yin Wang?"

However, she was met with a low growl in response.

It's like a wild beast, but more like a zombie.

Without a second thought, Xiao Mingxu pulled Rong Rong behind him.

On the ground, Yin Wang suddenly faced the crowd and roared again.

"It's a zombie!" Xiao Mingxu was horrified and retreated with Rong Rong. Everyone else retreated to the side, leaving only Yin Wang lying on the ground.

His face contorted in pain as he suddenly began frantically clawing at his arms, his eyes gradually turning red, clearly on the verge of becoming a zombie.

"Yin Wang!" Rong Rong's eyes instantly reddened. She had long regarded Yin Wang as her younger brother. How could she accept that he had become a zombie?

Is the power of the plot so strong that Yin Wang is destined to become a zombie, or even the zombie king?

"Captain, should we kill him beforehand?" Wang Tao's voice was strained, and his face showed reluctance, but in the apocalypse, similar scenes often occurred.

Sooner or later, they will face the prospect of their relatives, loved ones, and friends being infected with the virus.

The rational course of action is to kill the other person before they completely turn into a zombie; being soft-hearted will only lead to more deaths.

Rong Rong understood this principle, but she was very reluctant to part with it.

Through their daily interactions, Rong Rong had long discovered that Yin Wang's childhood was very tragic. He had never been treated kindly. Therefore, during the period when his intelligence regressed, Rong Rong treated Yin Wang well with the intention of making amends.

I want Yin Wang to have a happy childhood.

But in such a dramatic turn of events, just when Yin Wang was becoming more and more cheerful, he was infected with the zombie virus.

Will Yin Wang, who has become the zombie king, still have human thoughts and memories of his previous life?
