Yu Ling had anticipated that Gu Qingyan would reveal his identity, since she hadn't asked him to keep it a secret.
Seeing that Jiang Xue was about to focus on her secretly conducting experiments with intelligent zombies, Yu Ling quickly followed up the conversation:
"That's right. I have successfully developed a drug that can turn intelligent zombies into humans, but it cannot be mass-produced and can only be made one dose at a time."
Just kidding! I finally solved the problem at hand, how could I possibly do this every day from now on?!
I need to rest, a lot of rest!
"Doctor, do you have any other new drugs?"
Jiang Xue immediately thought of Chu Shuo.
"No, we can only do one procedure per corpse, it has to be made to order!"
Yu Ling wasn't exactly lying; the research and development process was complex, and there were few clinical cases, so the effect of each injection was definitely different.
Of course, the most important reason is that she is lazy. What if she works hard to make the antidote, but Chu Shuo thinks that she has tampered with the medicine?
Let's talk about it later.
[Host, look! That cat is turning into a zombie, it's so ugly~]
As the system was speaking, Zhao Minghao, holding the cat, came over again.
"Doctor, look..."
"Yes, it's mutating into a zombie cat. Everything's normal, don't worry."
Yu Ling was very perfunctory.
Jiang Xue's hand tightened; damn it, she felt like punching someone again.
Forget it, now that I've got the zombie suppressant, it's more important for me to go back to the base and save people.
"Dr. Chen, I'll have to trouble you with the injection for Chu Shuo. I'll give you the blood sample later when I have the chance."
Jiang Xue spoke sincerely. In fact, she had realized long ago that Yu Ling had conducted experiments on intelligent zombies behind her back, and Chu Shuo would not keep it a secret from Yu Ling.
However, these zombies did attack the base first. Besides, the experiments had already been conducted and the antidote had been prepared, so it was more important to win over the researchers who had developed the antidote.
"It's no use telling me this. The important thing is whether Chu Shuo himself wants to go back to being a useless cripple who can't even kill a chicken."
Yu Ling's words had a double meaning. The original owner's body had been in poor health ever since her superpower crystal core was destroyed by Jiang Xue. If Yu Ling hadn't developed the superpower activation potion and regained her ice-type superpower, she would probably still be a cripple.
"I see."
The system sighed silently:
[Sigh~ The host is trying to sow discord between the female lead and the female lead again.]
Yu Ling ignored the system's complaints. She wasn't really refusing to make medicine for the male lead; she was just giving Jiang Xue a heads-up. If Chu Shuo wanted to turn back into a human, he would have to rely on himself.
Useful people won't be easily cannon fodder no matter where they are, and she is very valuable. Whether it's the base's higher-ups or Chu Shuo, that vengeful ghost, they'll have to think twice before killing her.
Whether Jiang Xue understood Yu Ling's unspoken message or not, she had already put persuading Chu Shuo on her agenda. After saying goodbye to Yu Ling and the others again, she set off back to the base.
[Host, you're amazing! These potions you made are so expensive in the system shop!]
The system flattered her, but Yu Ling remained noncommittal. Her current status stemmed from the value she continuously created, and she deserved it all.
"Dr. Chen, is the Chu Shuo you're talking about the Zombie King?"
Gu Qingyan asked curiously, "Among intelligent zombies, Chu Shuo is also a unique legend."
"That's right, don't mess with him and Jiang Xue easily in the future."
Yu Ling couldn't wait for Chu Shuo, that guy who looked at her like she was something dirty, to be finished. But he was really strong; he could help Jiang Xue improve the base's status, which was practically helping her.
She wasn't being cowardly; she was thinking about the distant future!
"Uh-huh!"
Gu Qingyan nodded his head like a rattle drum, looking obedient and docile.
Now Gu Qingyan is very clear about his position. He has lost his experimental value and has become a powerless human being. His safety and survival are all provided by Yu Ling.
You should try to curry favor with powerful figures as early as possible.
After seeing Jiang Xue off, Yu Ling threw the system into the newly produced zombie cat shell and used a reverse injection to turn the zombie cat back into a cat, successfully exploiting the bug.
This is why the system is a data energy body; if someone else did this, they would end up in a vegetative state.
Zhao Minghao happily went off to play with his newly created system cat, while Gu Qingyan busied himself taking care of Yu Ling's daily needs. The intelligent zombies were having a great time in the material room, and the whole laboratory had a peaceful atmosphere.
Zhang Hewen, who was hiding in the survivor base after being invaded by zombies, was almost driven crazy by crying.
No one told me how to get back to the lab before I came!
Unfortunately, his presence was so inconspicuous that Jiang Xue and Yu Ling completely forgot about him.
His zombie companions did want to ask, but the process of Yu Ling conducting the experiment was too terrifying. The zombies were afraid that they would be caught on the experimental table if they were not careful, so they wanted to stay far away from Yu Ling.
And so, poor Zhang Hewen was forgotten at the base.
She looked so pitiful, weak, and helpless, yet she could eat a lot.
Jiang Xue quickly returned to the base with the zombie virus inhibitor. After reporting to the base leader and sending it for testing, she promptly began distributing it, striving to ensure that every injured patient received an injection.
Products made by Yu Ling are guaranteed to be of the highest quality. Under the powerful control of the divine soul, the error of the potion is almost zero, and the effect is also remarkable. Except for those who mutated prematurely due to not being injected in time, the virus of everyone else was effectively cleared, and there was no tendency for any mutation.
The base commander, who was over fifty years old, met with Jiang Xue and began to inquire about Yu Ling.
Aside from the fact that the original owner had accidentally created a virus and attempted to destroy the world, which Jiang Xue concealed, all the information about the name Chen Xiaoqing was placed on the base chief's desk.
“Dr. Chen is an invaluable talent, Miss Jiang. Could you think of a way to keep him at the base? I’m not comfortable leaving Dr. Chen alone outside.”
The base commander simply passed this huge problem to us with a single sentence.
Jiang Xue was also helpless. If the other party were willing to come, she wouldn't have to run back to the lab again and again.
There was no other way; the base director offered very generous terms. He was appointed as the head of the logistics team at the base research institute, a position that meant he was usually kept idle by the base and could simply grow vegetables in the base's cultivation room.
It's a position that many people in the base would kill for.
But whether Yu Ling will agree is still a question.
Jiang Xue's head started to hurt again.
However, it's unrealistic to expect Dr. Chen to keep a low profile, given that this virologist has already played a significant role in the fight between humans and zombies.
After that, the base will only become more reliant on Dr. Chen's medicine.
With a mission in mind, Jiang Xue planned to discuss things with Chu Shuo and, incidentally, find a way to remove Chu Shuo's title of Zombie King.
What a joke! If you can be a human, why would you want to be a zombie king?
Jiang Xue had already made up her mind. No matter if she threatened or bribed him, Chu Shuo was determined to be a decent human being, whether he wanted to or not!
Since the base suffered a great calamity, Chu Shuo has stayed near the base and has not left.
Jiang Xue easily found the other party, feeling very excited, but her tone was unusually cold. Yet, her first words upon meeting were:
"Come on! I'll take you to get your shot!"
Chu Shuo was completely baffled: ...? ? ?
