Chapter 177 Superpower Catalyst
"What happened? Did you and Xiao Qin have a fight?"
Father Shen hurried in and immediately spotted Youxiang sitting on the living room sofa. Without even taking a deep breath, he asked anxiously.
He had just completed a crucial experimental project in the lab and was overjoyed, eager to rush back and personally tell Xiaoyouzi the good news.
But to his surprise, he overheard rumors on the way that Xiaoyouzi and Xiaoqin had quarreled, which made him extremely worried.
"Dad, don't worry, have some water first, and let me explain."
Yu Xiang heard her father's voice and quickly looked up.
Seeing the sweat on her father's face, she immediately stood up, walked quickly to his side, took his arm, and helped him sit down on the sofa. Then she turned around, poured a glass of water, and handed it to her father.
Father Shen held the water glass tightly in his hand, but did not rush to drink it. Instead, he looked at Youxiang anxiously, his eyes full of worry.
He wants to hear an explanation first.
Just as Youxiang was about to speak and explain the whole story, Shen Jia, Qiao Yan, and Chen Yunfei hurriedly walked in.
As soon as Shen Jia entered the room, she rushed to Youxiang's side, "Sister, why did your future brother-in-law make you angry?"
Chen Yunfei and Qiao Yan followed suit, asking similar questions all at once.
It turned out that all three of them had also received the news, and their hearts were filled with the same worry and doubt.
Watching this scene, Qiao Yue couldn't help but say, "As expected of the 'famous corpse effect,' they know everything in such a short time."
Seeing everyone's anxious expressions, Yuxiang waved her hand and said, "Everyone, please don't rush. Sit down and let me explain slowly."
After everyone was seated, Yuka began to tell them what had happened.
From Qin Zhuo deliberately arguing with Zhao Yu in order to get closer to her, to how he infiltrated the enemy ranks, every detail is explained clearly.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they learned that the so-called argument was just an act.
Chen Yunfei slapped his thigh and said with a smile, "I knew it! How could Brother Qin possibly argue with Xiaoyouzi? He dotes on Xiaoyouzi so much, he never dares to say a harsh word to her, how could he bear to argue with her?"
Father Shen nodded with satisfaction, "Xiao Youzi and Xiao Qin are both good children, they won't quarrel."
Qiao Yue: "Alright, everyone can rest assured now. This was just a misunderstanding, so please stop worrying."
Relieved, Mr. Shen was finally able to drink his water in peace.
He let out a long sigh, picked up his water glass, tilted his head back, and gulped down several large mouthfuls.
Youxiang tilted her head, looking at her father with a hint of doubt on her face. "Dad, you're usually busy with research in the lab at this time. How did you hear about me and Zhuozhuo?"
Mr. Shen put down his water glass, his eyes gentle, and said with a smile, "I just finished my experiment and was planning to come and chat with you, but I overheard people talking about it on the way. Oh, right, I almost forgot to tell you some fantastic news, my research on the superpower catalyst has been a success!"
Shen's father discovered that whether they are zombies or humans, as long as they have superpowers, their blood contains a common special substance.
It was this magical substance that gave them superpowers.
Finally, after racking his brains and trying every possible method, he successfully extracted the substance.
Then, he carefully mixed it with the blood of ordinary zombies and ordinary humans.
After countless attempts and adjustments, a miracle occurred: the mixed blood became exactly the same as the blood of zombies and humans with superpowers.
Upon hearing the news, Yuka's face lit up with surprise and disbelief as she asked, "Really?"
Father Shen nodded slightly. "It's true, but this catalyst hasn't been officially tested on humans or zombies yet, so I'm not sure about its specific effects. Further experiments are needed to verify it. However, this experiment carries certain risks, as it involves unknown reactions, and it's not certain that any zombies or humans would be willing to try it."
Yuka thought for a moment and asked, "Would this be life-threatening?"
Father Shen: "I've done experiments on small animals, and there haven't been any life-threatening situations. However, small animals are different from humans and zombies, so we still have to be cautious."
Yu Xiang frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Once Zhao Yu's matter is resolved, I'll ask if anyone in the base is willing to try. For now, let's keep this catalyst a secret and not let the people at the Bright Base find out."
Father Shen nodded. "Alright, let's do it your way for now."
Meanwhile, at the Bright Base on the other side...
Ye Yufan sat behind his large desk, looking at the message Zhao Yu had sent on his phone. His brows furrowed, and he fell into deep thought.
"It's really surprising that Qin Zhuo isn't dead!" Ye Yufan muttered to himself.
Then, his gaze gradually sharpened.
Qin Zhuo and Youxiang had a fight, which presented a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
A plan quickly formed in his mind.
Zhao Yu was instructed to instigate Qin Zhuo to seize control of the Peach Blossom Base, thereby causing internal strife within the base.
Wouldn't that be the perfect opportunity for him to seize the Peach Blossom Base?
Once the plan succeeds, both Yuxiang and Taoyuan Base will be his.
Thinking of this, Ye Yufan's lips unconsciously curled up, revealing a smug smile.
He looked at Qi Heng, who was standing to the side, and told him his thoughts in detail.
Qi Heng was Ye Tian's former assistant. Because Ye Tian didn't value him, he was dissatisfied and betrayed Ye Tian, instead following Ye Yufan.
After hearing Ye Yufan's plan, Qi Heng showed a hint of doubt on his face. "Qin Zhuo was willing to lose his life for that female zombie Youxiang. From this point of view, he is a loyal and righteous person. He would never betray Youxiang. I advise the lord to think twice before acting."
Ye Yufan sneered disdainfully, "Why is it impossible? A man with blood in his veins would not be content to be subservient to a woman, no, to a female corpse. Even if Qin Zhuo likes Youxiang very much, he will still feel dissatisfied."
Qi Heng still insisted on his point of view, "Lord, I still think it's not a good idea. In fact, there is no need for us to offend Peach Blossom Base at all. Judging from Zhao Yu's description, the strength of Peach Blossom Base should not be underestimated. If we act rashly, we may end up losing more than we gain."
Ye Yufan's face gradually darkened. He suddenly stood up and said, "Back then, our Bright Base chased after them relentlessly. Are you sure they won't retaliate? Rather than waiting to be killed, we might as well strike first."
Qi Heng wanted to persuade him further, "But..."
"No buts!" Ye Yufan interrupted loudly, "I am the lord, and I have the final say here. With your indecisive personality, it's no wonder you're not valued by my father."
After saying that, Ye Yufan stormed off, leaving Qi Heng standing there alone.
Qi Heng watched Ye Yufan's departing figure, slowly lowered his head, and unconsciously clenched his fists.
A cold smile appeared on his lips, and his eyes revealed a resolute and ruthless determination.
I didn't expect you two, father and son, to be like this. Since that's the case, then don't blame him!
