Chapter 830: Undercover or Idiot
Thinking that this was the zombie-releasing potion that had only been circulated among everyone, even the psychics on duty couldn't help but look over here. Wen Jing unconsciously took a step forward, wanting to see it more clearly.
Of course, people are more worried about what problems might arise with the newly-launched medicine.
Ning Yuan patted his shoulder and said, "Don't bother them. You can do whatever you want with it when it's in your hands later."
Wen Jing smiled and didn't say anything about his nervousness. He saw the operator at the side take out the medicine and inject it directly near the man's wound.
Not long after, the man with his eyes closed suddenly opened them, his teeth clenched tightly, and he struggled hard with his arms tied, making the veins on his arms exposed. The outlines of his muscular bulges were knotty and firm, and his explosive power was extremely strong. He looked completely different from the person when he was quiet.
Several researchers had anticipated this situation and stepped back a few steps to let the other party suffer. However, what was surprising was that the leader did not move at all, as if he was not afraid at all, and even took a slight step forward.
Ning Yuan took a look at his eccentric behavior and did not notice his communication with other people present, and attributed it to the demeanor of a leader.
Wen Jing took two steps forward unconsciously and looked at Ning Yuan, "What's going on?"
"Normal," said the researcher in charge. He noticed that the metal binding him was deforming at a speed visible to the naked eye, but he didn't look weird. "Don't let him use his superpowers."
It's obviously impossible to create such a situation by brute force alone, it can only be a supernatural power, so...
Doesn't it mean that their previous practice of locking people in metal cages was just superficial?
Ning Yuan had a lot of thoughts in his mind at this moment, but they were all interrupted by Wen Jing's call of "Brother".
"Brother! Be patient."
Wen Jing didn't bother to hide, he went straight forward and pressed the man's hands back on the bed, whispering.
Ning Yuan raised his eyebrows, looked at the man on the bed again, and turned away as if nothing had happened.
About ten minutes later, the man on the bed gasped and calmed down. Black dirty blood began to flow out of his wound. Upon seeing this, several researchers immediately stepped forward to re-adjust the machine and conduct another test.
After a moment, another number appeared on the screen. Seeing that the person in charge was frowning, Wen Jing immediately asked what was wrong.
"Is he an S-level mutant?" asked the person in charge.
"right".
"Top level, right? Just one step away from SS."
"..."Wen Jing, "Yes."
The researcher nodded and said, "It is best not to upgrade in a short period of time. The zombie energy in his body is higher than the normal safe range for upgrading. The possibility of him surviving if upgraded is very small."
"Is there any way to change this situation?" A slow voice came from the entrance. When they looked, they saw Wen Xing standing there without knowing when.
The junction of light and darkness hid his figure very well, and no one noticed his presence for a while. Even Ning Yuan didn't realize whether he was there at the beginning or appeared later.
His heart skipped a beat, and thinking of the other party's previous behavior, he quietly became more alert.
"I don't know much about upgrading superpowers, but..." The leading researcher looked up at Wen Jing and suddenly said, "We have done research. The energy that superpowers can withstand at the SS level has reached the peak of the species. It is impossible for a higher level to appear."
Ning Yuan didn't react to what this man meant for a moment, and then he listened to him continue to add, "In other words, theoretically there is no SSS level, whether it is zombies or humans."
Ning Yuan frowned instantly. Isn't this equivalent to saying openly that Lu Weiyi was able to upgrade successfully because he had a unique method?
Ning Yuan recalled the information about this researcher he had seen before: Pang Qiu, the person sent here from the Kyoto base, was also one of the psychics.
He was very low-key when he was at the base and was a person who focused on research. He did not show much enthusiasm when he came here, so Ning Yuan did not suspect anything about him.
"There is still a difference between theory and practice. We don't know how many SSS-level mutant animals we have seen out there. There's nothing strange about it." Ning Yuan laughed and looked at the man on the bed who was wet with sweat, and reminded, "Mr. Wen seems to need some water."
Wen Jing's attention immediately turned to the person on the bed. He took a towel and wanted to wipe the sweat off the man's body, but as soon as he got close, his hand was immediately held by someone. Wen Jing looked over and saw that the man had woken up.
His pupils also returned to their human form, dark and deep, "A Jing?"
"Big brother".
Wen Xing also strode over and looked at Wen Yan, "Brother."
"Hmm," Wen Yan responded, pinching her eyebrows weakly. She wanted to move her body but found that her injured arm seemed out of control.
"It is the zombie energy that causes damage to the body," Pangqiu explained, "As the level of the psychic increases, the physical strength is also changing. The damage caused to the body by zombie energy is limited, but it does not mean that there is no damage."
"The zombie energy releasing potion can only force the zombie energy out of the body and cannot repair the damaged parts." Pang Qiu had already started explaining without anyone saying anything. Ning Yuan was sure that there must be some connection between them.
Thinking of Zhuang Mingxu's plan, Ning Yuan crossed his arms and said nothing, putting himself completely in the position of a bystander.
Only then did he realize that Pangqiu seemed to have some similarities in facial features with the three people in front of him, especially in bone structure. Compared with the sturdy Wen Yan and Wen Jing, he was more similar to Wen Xing in terms of thinness.
"This isn't considered a complete recovery, is it?" Wen Jing frowned.
"It's no problem to ask the healing department to come and recover. It's not a difficult task." Pangqiu habitually put one hand in his pocket, "The difficult part is the effect of the medicine on ordinary people."
"What do you mean? Can't this medicine be used by ordinary people?"
Pangqiu shook his head and said, "Okay."
"It's just that ordinary people's bodies are more easily changed by zombie energy than those with special powers. In addition, for bodies that have not been strengthened by special powers, the zombie energy will take effect quickly, and there is a greater possibility that they will not have time to use it."
"And even if there is enough time to use it, the damage caused will require a higher level of healing." This is not a condition that any base can achieve.
This is also the reason why Yuebanwan was not promoted on a large scale from the beginning.
These conditions have never been associated with medicines before, and everyone thought that this medicine could meet the needs both in terms of the people who use it and the effects it could achieve.
Hearing that there were so many prerequisites, everyone frowned and rethought the value of this transaction. Wen Jing, who had once had the honor of seeing the potion in use, immediately asked, "Then what about Gu Qingji..."
After he said this, he remembered that Ning Yuan had not spoken for a while. He looked up at him and saw Ning Yuan crossing his arms and looking at the four of them standing together with a smile on his face.
Wen Jing's heart skipped a beat, and he was about to say something when he heard Pang Qiu reaching out his hand habitually, as if he wanted to adjust his glasses. However, when he got to his eyes, he realized that he was not wearing glasses. He put his hands back into his pockets and said calmly, "I'm their uncle."
"..."Wen Jing.
"..." Wen Xing.
The two looked at each other and then at Wen Yan who was struggling to sit up on the bed.
Ning Yuan cursed in his heart. He agreed with Zhuang Mingxu to send the restless person out to experience life, but that didn't mean he wanted to encounter such a thing as soon as he started out. It was completely out of his control.
Before Wen Yan expressed his opinion, Pang Qiu continued, "I am passionate about academics and have been working in the Kyoto Research Institute. I don't have much contact with them, so I was sent to the Yuebanwan Joint Research Institute by the Kyoto Base."
Pangqiu had the apathy typical of researchers. After the end of the world, he only inquired about the brothers' recent situation. Knowing that they were doing well, he stopped asking and concentrated on his new research. Naturally, no one knew that there was such a relationship between them.
These words seemed to be trying to distance himself from them, but since he had just told them many things without any scruples, what he said now made them useless.
Wen Jing and Wen Xing didn't know what to say for a moment about this uncle who in their impression was no different from a nerd.
But he didn't know whether the information the other party had just revealed was confidential. Wen Jing was worried that Ning Yuan would turn against him, so he calmly pulled Pangqiu behind him.
Thinking about how he had played the emotional card with Lu Weiyi before and now the undercover appeared in front of him, it was really a slap in the face. However, it did not affect his sincere apology, "I'm sorry Ning Yuan, there was an explosion in the joint research institute before, and we didn't know that my uncle was still alive, so we didn't dare to recognize him when we saw him just now."
Pang Qiu glanced at him inexplicably, "Didn't I tell you before... um..."
Wen Xing acted expressionlessly and in a way that was totally inconsistent with his image. He stepped forward and covered Pangqiu's mouth, preventing him from saying something that completely lacked emotional intelligence.
Several researchers who had followed were worried about a conflict and being implicated when they saw this scene, so they quietly moved away from the group and watched the fun from behind. At this time, only Ning Yuan was left standing opposite them, looking very lonely.
Wen Jing took a deep breath to make himself look less embarrassed.
Ning Yuan looked at them as if he was watching a joke, without saying a word, until Wen Yan on the bed recovered his strength and took the initiative to say to Ning Yuan, "Thank you for the generous help from Yuebanwan Base."
Although they were prepared to use force to demand early treatment, that also meant that they might have to bear the result of half of their members being wiped out. At this time, no matter what the reason was for the other party to send people and medicine in advance, they deserved a warm thank you.
"It's okay, this is a partner base, we can all help each other," Ning Yuan smiled, "Since Mr. Wen is fine, let's hurry up and ask the medical department to come and repair the damage. It will be bad if we delay too long."
Wen Yan nodded.
Ning Yuan looked at the remaining researchers who were curiously watching the show, motioned them to pack up their equipment, and looked at Pang Qiu, "Dr. Pang, shall we go back?"
Wen Jing and Wen Xing did not move aside, and Pang Qiu did not come out this time. Instead, he said bluntly, "I am not going back. I want to stay with my family."
