He knew very well how much effort scientific researchers had to put in compared to ordinary professions. It required a lot of time, a lot of experimental experience, and extremely strong talent. There were no shortcuts at all.

But this young, tall, and elegant woman who looked more like a star than a researcher was actually a doctor? And the person in charge of researching zombie viruses?

However, I still don’t understand.

At this moment, Hu Qingming has roughly understood that this Human Rights Protection Association is far beyond his imagination.

So I still greeted Hu Jing politely.

"Hello, Dr. Hu."

"Hello, Mr. Hu." Hu Jing responded to Hu Qingming politely, but when she looked at Shen Yi, a hint of enthusiasm emerged, and she obviously suppressed her excitement. She came to Shen Yi respectfully, nervously and docilely, "President!"

"Hu Jing, please introduce us to your current achievements." Shen Yi said gently.

"Yes!" Hu Jing took a deep breath. Just one sentence made her so excited that her face turned red.

Hu Qingming looked at Shen Yi with a strange look.

Of course he could see it.

This Dr. Hu has a great admiration for Shen Yi.

It’s no longer just like meeting a superior, it’s more like meeting a spiritual idol.

But what surprised him even more was that Shen Yi seemed to be accustomed to this attitude and his eyes were full of friendliness.

Yes, that kind of affinity between superiors and inferiors!

How long has he been in this organization?

Hu Qingming has realized that he has definitely overlooked something.

Especially when they followed Hu Jing and saw a group of researchers lined up neatly, as if waiting for inspection! Old Shen, I'm afraid that just like this organization, it's not as simple as he thought in the past! "President, we have conducted a comprehensive study on this fantasy virus named zombie virus." Hu Jing brought Shen Yi and others to a huge glass room, inside which was a hideous zombie.

But the moment they saw it, Hu Qingming and others' pupils shrank slightly.

Because this zombie, apart from its hideous face, didn't look like a dead body at all. Its red muscles were bulging high, and its blood vessels were bulging! Just by looking at it with the naked eye, one could imagine its powerful strength!

Is this still a zombie? This is a monster! "This is a second-level zombie that has shown a power-type evolution." Hu Jing introduced, "We have discovered that this zombie virus has shown a power to reshape and evolve life, and sufficient blood and flesh feeding will accelerate the effect of this evolution, especially cannibalism. In fact, in the zombie's mind, there is even a 'crystal' containing a strong virus."

"Crystallization?" Hu Qingming looked at Hu Jing suddenly, "Are you sure it's a crystal?"

"Of course I'm sure." Hu Jing raised her hand, and a dark crystal was sent into the room.

Almost instantly, the zombie with bulging muscles went crazy and rushed forward desperately, trying to snatch the crystal away.

Then he was directly repelled by an inexplicable force field.

But he still rushed forward unwillingly and continued to be beaten back.

Repeat this process.

"As Mr. Hu has seen, this crystal has an indescribable attraction to zombies. It seems that the desire for evolution has been written into their deep consciousness, and zombie crystals can speed up this process. In addition, second-level zombies have already demonstrated some kind of thinking ability."

He just moved around the crystal, becoming cautious and approaching it little by little.

Hu Qingming even saw vigilance in his actions.

Evolving so fast! "In addition to strength, we have currently cultivated speed type, leader type, and mutant type. The characteristics of the mutant type are very complex." Hu Jingtai pointed his hand, and a series of projections suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Those are zombies!

Some were petite and ghostly, some had several zombies gathered around them and were obviously being controlled, some were as big as balloons and looked fat, and some had tentacles extending from their jaws and dancing constantly.

Gurgle.

Hu Qingming and others kept swallowing.

They were naturally not shocked by the scene before them.

What was shocking was the characteristics of this zombie virus! Yes, this was exactly the characteristics of the zombie virus in the doomsday novel! The word "fantasy" was worthy of its name! "If this is the case, there should be intelligent ones." Hu Qingming seemed to have thought of something.

He had also read similar novels when he was in school.

So it's easy to guess.

"Theoretically, they should exist, but we haven't cultivated them yet," Hu Jing said. "Moreover, according to current calculations, when these zombies reach the third or even fourth stage, no matter what type they are, they will begin to have rationality and self-identity. They will already be a brand new race, and they will possess truly extraordinary powers."

In fact, just as Hu Qingming said, this zombie virus is the kind that came out of a novel.

As for what kind of novel? It's not clear yet, it's more like a hodgepodge.

Anyway, it’s all about evolution and upgrading.

But the real superpowers have begun to show.

For example, the Pan-Human Guardian Association, which is a leader with psychic powers, can easily see that it is a kind of spiritual power. Although it has not yet materialized, it has already demonstrated mysterious attributes.

But at this moment, Hu Qingming thought of another thing.

The protagonists of those doomsday novels are not zombies!

"Could it be possible that this zombie virus could also cause humans to evolve?" he murmured involuntarily.

"That's right." Hu Jing actually nodded. "We don't know enough about the zombie virus at the moment, and the probability of mutation is too high, so we can't start the test plan. However, among this group of infected citizens, there is a person who has not turned into a zombie and has evolved."

"Hiss——" Hu Qingming took a deep breath.

There really is an evolver! "Where is that person?" he asked.

"We have detained him." Hu Jing showed regret. "But unfortunately, the special person is very hostile to us. He firmly believes that the virus was researched and released by us, and that the outside world has become a zombie apocalypse. Therefore, he refuses to cooperate with the experiment and has been looking for a chance to escape. But we will not let him go until we are sure that the virus in his body has lost its infectious ability."
