The submarine quickly submerged to the base.
From a distance, the base was covered by an iron dome, completely sealed off, with no entrances or exits.
The submarine stopped on a lander, the hatch opened, and everyone got out.
Apart from the people who were originally in the submarine and Pei Hu, everyone else was diving to such a deep place for the first time, and it was also the first time in their lives that they had seen an underwater base.
The base was completely enclosed and much more rigorous than the Grand Alliance base, with sentries every three steps and guards every five steps, and everyone carrying a gun that gleamed with a cold metallic luster.
The underwater base wasn't very large. Pei Hu led them to a spacious conference room and asked them to wait a moment.
Xiang Qing felt uncomfortable after entering this place.
It wasn't the pressure at the bottom of the sea that was great, but rather he had a feeling that there was something bad down there that made him very uncomfortable.
They waited for a long time before someone finally came.
A group of elderly men, unlike the old men who used to walk their birds and play chess in the park before the apocalypse, this group of people, every move and every glance, revealed their extraordinary status.
Xiang Qing saw his father, and Xiang's father naturally saw him as well.
When Pei Hu returned with the message, Xiang's father knew that his son was still alive and that Yu Die was alright.
At the same time, he also learned that Yi Mu was not dead.
Not only did he not die, but he also became immune and continued to have an affair with his son.
Xiang's father glanced at Yi Mu, his eyes deep and thoughtful.
Everyone took their seats. The elderly man at the head of the table had a kind face, just like an ordinary grandfather in a family.
He looked around, whether feigning ignorance or genuinely unaware, and asked, "Who is Yi Mu?"
Yi Mu, who was sitting in the third seat on his left, shifted his body upon hearing this.
"Nice to meet you."
The old man smiled and waved to him, "Why are you sitting so far away? Come sit closer so I can have a good look at you."
The old man must have been of high status, but his tone of voice was excessively approachable.
The person sitting below the old man stood up, walked behind Yi Mu, and made a gesture to him.
Imu felt something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it, so he just stood up.
The old man sized him up for a long time, something flashing in his cloudy eyes.
Before Yi Mu could investigate further, the old man looked away.
"In the end, it's you young people who are truly capable. We've been secretly researching for years and still haven't developed a vaccine. You're really promising at such a young age."
With appropriate humility, Yi Mu said, "You flatter me. For the sake of humanity struggling to live in this world, the advent of vaccines is inevitable."
The old man smiled at him, then suddenly asked a strange question, "Is it really worth it to struggle so hard to live?"
Yi Mu looked up at him, wondering what he meant by that.
He pondered the meaning behind those words, while the old man stopped discussing the topic.
“Vaccine testing will take time. In the meantime, please stay here. If you need anything, just tell Pei Hu and he will prepare it for you.”
The old man said a few more words, then got up and left. Of the group, only one middle-aged man remained.
He doesn't look old, but his hair is completely white, which looks a bit strange.
The journey had been quite arduous, and Yi Mu was about to rest when Xiang Qing stopped him.
"Mumu, let me introduce you to someone."
Yi Mu knew everyone present, except for the white-haired man.
Upon closer inspection, the white-haired man bears a striking resemblance to Xiang Qing in facial features. Could he be Xiang Qing's father?
Just then, Xiang Qing called out "Father" and then introduced Yi Mu.
Xiang's father's expression was indifferent. He knew Yi Mu and had thought he was dead, but he didn't expect him to be so lucky.
Yi Mu knew that the person in front of him was the culprit who almost turned him into a zombie, but because he was Xiang Qing's father, he still politely called him uncle.
Mr. Xiang responded indifferently, then turned to Yu Die, who was standing not far away, and gave her a smile.
"Xiao Die, come here."
