I still remember that in the previous life, it was because of these mutants with unique intelligence that the survivors died on a large scale.
At that time, all major bases were attacked, with many casualties and almost total extinction.
Moreover, Zhong Li thought that the appearance of this mutant species meant that even more powerful mutant species would emerge.
This is really too dangerous.
"I agree with everyone else. I understand that you want to do research now! But research is useless. The most urgent thing is to consider how to stop such aberrations."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Qi spoke again.
"Of course we want to stop it, but if we don't step up our research, how can we stop it successfully? In my opinion, this matter must be done according to what I say."
Since his arrival, Zhong Li has always been condescending to be the second in command.
After all, the matter of rebirth cannot be explained too clearly, and this time Zhong Li rebuilt the base in order to provide a shelter for all the survivors.
This idea must never be changed.
Zhong Li frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in his eyes, and then he spoke coldly.
"Even if we study it, with our current research technology, it is difficult to know the truth of the matter. What are you going to do next?"
Gu Qi narrowed his eyes and thought carefully, then said: "This matter is simple. It depends on whether you dare to do it."
"You stay here and guard the base. Even though you are alone, I believe in your ability. As long as you are here, you will be able to lead everyone to guard the base."
"As for me, I will find Jiang Mi in a short time and ask him how far he has researched the medicine."
"The second thing is that I want to find a suitable solution to deal with the current crisis."
Hearing this, Zhong Li smiled coldly.
"How can that be possible? If you really want to go find Jiang Mi, it's better for me to go. After all, you have been in the base all the time, giving orders to everyone, and you know the defense of the base better."
"So just leave this matter to me."
The reason why Zhong Li wanted to find an opportunity to talk with Jiang Mi was because Jiang Mi's every move was too weird, and he always felt that Jiang Mi seemed to be a reborn person.
It’s just that Zhong Li didn’t find any evidence before, so this time he can talk directly with Jiang Mi, which is also a rare opportunity.
I originally thought that the other party might agree.
But I never thought that at this moment, Gu Qi directly expressed his opposition.
"How can that be possible? I don't agree."
"I am the boss of this base and the controller of this base. If I meet with Jiang Mi directly, it will make Jiang Mi feel a little more important. Although you can also call him the controller of the base, he rarely shows up after all."
"And I think it might be safer for you to stay and defend."
Zhong Li smiled coldly and refused directly.
When the people around saw the two people arguing, they were a little frightened for a moment. They backed away and looked around, worried that other mutants would rush in.
The mutant that had been controlled by them was still struggling violently in the net bag.
"Let's kill him first."
Before Zhong Li could finish his words, he was rejected again.
"No! Keep him in the lab first. I will personally lead the experiment after I return."
"I have to find out what's going on with this guy."
Gu Qi seemed to be extremely persistent about this matter and refused to let it go no matter what.
Zhong Li was a little confused.
"Have you ever thought that this is just the beginning, and there will be even more mutants in the future!"
"As their intelligence awakens, they are likely to bring us catastrophic disasters. If we don't take precautions, there will be endless troubles.
This is a rare opportunity. While they are not fully awakened yet, we can kill them completely and prevent them from continuing to evolve."
What Zhong Li said makes sense.
People around him naturally support Zhong Li.
"Besides, now that you want to keep me here, you can't leave this terrible thing in the base."
"And if the two of us leave together, if this guy causes any more trouble, then the people in the base won't be able to handle it. Have you ever thought that the people in the base also need a safe area to survive?"
Gu Qi was naturally a little dissatisfied and spoke coldly.
"What nonsense is that? Isn't this place considered a safe area now? We have actively rescued so many survivors. Why do you have to pick on me?"
Looking at Zhong Li, who had never argued with him before, he seemed a little confused.
The two arrived together and jointly controlled the base. There had never been any disagreements between them. They did not expect that the conflict this time would be so big.
"Okay, there is no doubt about this matter. Just kill this man. I will go to Jiang Mi to discuss the follow-up matters. You stay here and ensure the absolute safety of the base."
After Zhong Li finished speaking, he prepared to leave!
Gu Qi narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Zhong Li, seeming a little confused.
"Why do I feel like you're particularly concerned about this Jiang Mi? Every time Jiang Mi is mentioned, you pay a lot of attention, and this time you even insisted on coming forward. Do you have any ideas?"
Gu Qi felt somewhat unhappy, and there was a hint of bitterness in his tone.
"You need to see the current situation clearly. In this chaotic world, emotions should not appear. Moreover, if you act rashly, it is likely to affect your performance. You stay here."
"I don't want it."
Seeing the two people arguing like this, the person next to them couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up.
"You two, if that doesn't work, go look for Jiang Mi together. Anyway, we're going to look for Jiang Mi this time because of the reagent."
"It wouldn't be too much even if two of you go. This will make Jiang Mi pay more attention to us, and we can also learn more information and get more reagents."
Having said that, he raised his eyebrows.
"As for the base, we will take control of it. We will definitely hold on until you come back, so don't worry."
When the two of us heard this, we looked at each other and hesitated for a moment.
The best way is for one person to go forward and one person to stay here to guard.
After all, without a leader, it is very likely that these mutants will be left with loopholes, and the people in the entire base will be in danger.
However, this seems to be another unsolvable problem.
"Well, this time, the two of us will go together, and we can assure you that we will be back soon."
"So, no matter what happens, you must ensure your own safety and make a decision after we come back. Got it?"
Everyone nodded in agreement, and the two of them stopped waiting and decided to go forward together. (End of this chapter)
