Chapter 370: Potions to control zombies?
"What's your name, brother?"
Boss Qian spoke.
The voice was slightly hoarse due to the smoke.
"Lu Yao."
Lu Yao responded briefly, put the lighter back in his pocket, and looked up at Boss Qian.
His expression was calm and indifferent.
It seemed as if handing over the fire was just a casual act, without any deep meaning.
Boss Qian took another puff of his cigarette and looked at Lu Yao. "Brother Lu, I've made note of today's meal and these cigarettes."
Lu Yao raised the corner of his mouth, half smiling, "You're welcome, it's just a few cigarettes."
"Mr. Lu, you don't know that in this end times, cigarettes are more precious than gold. I used to think smoking was a bad habit, but now, being able to take a puff is like being in heaven."
A burly man took a puff of his cigarette and sighed.
Su Qian had a calm expression, his arms folded across his chest, watching all this quietly, a slight frown between his brows.
The strong smell of cigarette smoke all around made her feel a little disgusted.
Xiaoliu sat aside, holding his chin with his hands, blinking his innocent eyes.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu. I didn't expect to have such a good fortune in this damn place."
He took a few puffs of the cigarette.
The expression on Boss Qian's face became more relaxed, and his originally sharp eyes softened a little.
"Brother Lu,"
Boss Qian flicked the ash from his cigarette and said, "Judging from your behavior, you don't seem like an ordinary survivor. What did you do in the past?"
"I spent a few years in the army."
A faint smile appeared on Lu Yao's lips.
Noticing Su Qian's slightly frowned brows, he immediately realized that Su Qian didn't like the smell of smoke.
He put out the cigarette in his hand without leaving a trace.
"No wonder."
When Boss Qian heard this, a flash of realization and admiration flashed in his eyes, "I was wondering why Brother Lu is so full of energy and spirit."
The zombie outbreak happened two or three years ago. It would be difficult to survive until now without any skills or abilities.
A meal and a few cigarettes successfully let them down their guard and brought them closer.
"Brother Lu, what are your plans next?"
After Li Fugui finished his cigarette, he took a big puff on the cigarette butt and looked at Lu Yao as if he was familiar with him.
"I don't have anywhere to go yet, so I'll just take it one step at a time."
Lu Yao showed a helpless look on his face. "After all, this world is too dangerous. It's too difficult for me to survive safely with my wife and brother."
He sighed cooperatively.
Su Qian was originally listening quietly on the side. When she heard Lu Yao call her "wife", she was slightly startled and a blush quietly appeared on her cheeks.
But she quickly adjusted.
In line with Lu Yao's words, his expression revealed worry and fatigue.
When Boss Qian heard what Lu Yao said, he felt something in his heart.
I feel like the opportunity has come.
"Brother Lu, what you said is too true. In this apocalypse, only capable people can survive."
He leaned closer and said sincerely, "Look at you. You've been a soldier, so you must be quite skilled. It's not easy running around with your family. Why don't you come to our base?"
Su Qian glanced at a few people in an inaudible manner.
Great, the fish is hooked!
Lu Yao smiled lightly and didn't respond.
"Yes, Brother Lu."
Li Fugui, standing by, nodded repeatedly, as if completely forgetting his previous betrayal, and said flatteringly, "Boss Qian's base is really good. As long as you are willing to follow him, there will definitely be benefits."
As he spoke, he rubbed his hands with a flattering smile on his face.
"this……"
Lu Yao frowned slightly, revealing a hesitant expression: "I don't know much about your base. I would feel uneasy if I went there rashly."
When Boss Qian heard that there was a chance, he immediately became excited.
He enthusiastically introduced: "The defenses of our base are very strong. They were built bit by bit by our brothers. The zombies can't break in at all. Moreover, we have a secret weapon."
Speaking of this.
He lowered his voice mysteriously, "Our team leader is a formidable figure who has been researching various apocalyptic challenges. Some time ago, he even developed a potion that can control zombies."
As he spoke, a look of pride flashed between his brows.
A potion to control zombies?
Su Qian's action of caressing Bai Ze paused slightly.
really.
The organization behind Li Fugui is not simple.
"Potion to control zombies?
Lu Yao was shocked, but pretended to be surprised and curious: "What kind of potion can actually control zombies?"
"This potion was created by the team leader using various rare materials and after countless experiments."
Boss Qian blew out a puff of smoke and became more and more proud. "As long as we inject the zombie, within a moment, it will be like being cast under a spell. All its frenzy will disappear, and only obedience will remain."
He pointed to the remains of a zombie not far away that had been bitten beyond recognition and gestured:
"Take that zombie for example. It was so aggressive and aggressive that we had to work really hard to contain it. But after we injected it with the potion, it instantly calmed down. It stayed put and stayed like a pet, just like a pet."
"If that's the case, it would indeed be a good thing for the benefit of mankind."
Lu Yao nodded slightly, with a look of appreciation on his face.
"Benefiting mankind?"
Boss Qian sneered at this and said, "We're not going to such great lengths to benefit mankind."
"In this apocalypse, survival is the greatest victory. This potion is the key to our survival. When the time comes, the other survivor bases will have to obey us, and all the supplies will be ours."
There was a greedy glint in his eyes.
The smugness on his face became more and more obvious.
Lu Yao raised his eyebrows and continued to test: "Is this potion so powerful?"
"That's natural."
Boss Qian exhaled a puff of cigarette, a fierce look appearing on his face. "Last time, we learned that there was a small base storing a large amount of food and medicine, so we sent dozens of controlled zombies to lead the charge."
"Those people had never seen anything like this before. They were terrified. We grabbed the resources without any effort."
Su Qian understood.
It turns out that this was their idea.
Control zombies and plunder resources from other survivors.
"Brother Lu, don't you know there's a large security base a hundred kilometers away?"
Li Fugui approached Lu Yao, his eyes glittering with cunning. "That base is huge, well-stocked, and well-defended. However, with our zombie-controlling potion, it's only a matter of time before we capture it. If you come, Brother Lu, you'll definitely get some benefits."
Lu Yao was shocked.
He remained calm on the surface, feigning curiosity as he asked, "Such a powerful base can be taken down with just a few zombies?"
"Hmph, that base does have some tricks up its sleeve, but can it be stronger than a zombie army?"
Boss Qian snorted coldly, his face full of pride: "We control the zombies to attack, they can only take care of this side and not the other side. When the time comes, we can take advantage of the chaos to charge in, and all the supplies will be ours, right?"
Boss Qian became more and more excited as he spoke.
It’s as if I can already see those beautiful pictures waving at me.
