Jiang Xue cleared her mind of all sorts of random thoughts and explained seriously that Yu Ling had developed a drug that could turn intelligent zombies back into humans.
Chu Shuo himself said he didn't believe it at all.
Who knows if this is a conspiracy by that wicked doctor?
Aside from himself, Jiang Xue, and a few other S-rank experts in the base, there is probably no one else in the world who can stop Dr. Chen's insane research.
What if something happens to me? How can I protect Jiang Xue?
Seeing that Chu Shuo remained unmoved no matter what she said, Jiang Xue recalled the little black accusation that Yu Ling had mentioned, and her heart began to waver.
Does Chu Shuo really not want to turn back into a human?
Because he was already the highest-ranking and most powerful zombie, Chu Shuo was unwilling to give up his current achievements and was content to remain a zombie for the rest of his life.
"Let me explain, Xiaoxue... Dr. Chen, she... blah blah blah... Of course I want to be with you, but blah blah blah... Eliminating zombies isn't something that can be done in a day or two, blah blah blah..."
Chu Shuo's throat was practically hoarse from explaining.
With that speed and eloquence, he could practically be a stand-up comedian if he wore a traditional Chinese robe. It's really putting zombies to the test!
Chu Shuo explained for a long time, but Jiang Xue didn't listen to a single word.
In his heart, he just thought, "Fine, Chu Shuo, you really don't want to be human!"
Seeing that they couldn't persuade each other, the two decided to go and talk to Yu Ling about life.
So, inside the laboratory.
Seeing the two uninvited guests, Yu Ling was on the verge of collapse.
I've only been resting for a short while, and here I am again?!
"What do you want from me this time?!"
Yu Ling complained,
"Are you two treating this place like an inn?"
Out of hospitality, although Yu Ling was extremely annoyed by the arrival of the two, she still tidied up the lounge for Jiang Xue and Chu Shuo to stay in.
Yu Ling sat down facing the two of them. Jiang Xue did not mention the potion that would turn Chu Shuo back into a human first, but instead told Yu Ling about the base leader's request.
"Do you know why I'm hiding here doing research?"
Yu Ling asked.
Jiang Xue honestly shook her head: "I don't know."
"You know what I've researched before. Many viruses can be fatal to ordinary people, like the zombie virus you and I know about. Therefore, there's no way to prevent them using common sense."
"I've heard a little about that, but..."
Jiang Xue still wanted to try to struggle.
"I mean, if someone in the base is unfortunately infected by a leak from my experiment... who's responsible?"
"No way?!"
Chu Shuo and Jiang Xue spoke in unison, fearing that Yu Ling's idea might come true.
Yu Ling simply shook her head:
"I'm not sure either. After all, my research started before the apocalypse and has been going on for over a decade, with countless anomalies along the way."
"In short, there's no way I'm going to the base."
Yu Ling pointed at the two of them,
"Let me tell you, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have some power now! And neither of you should even think about taking me away. I'd rather die here than leave!"
Just kidding. No matter how good the position the base commander says sounds, if you go there, you'll still be working for someone else for the rest of your life.
Chu Shuo and Jiang Xue exchanged a glance and both laughed.
"Don't worry, we won't take you away by force unless you want to."
Yu Ling looked at the two of them suspiciously:
"So what exactly are you here for?"
"This is a medicine for Chu Shuo; you need to prepare it."
Jiang Xue said fiercely,
"I originally planned to take it slowly later, but I didn't expect this guy to really not want to be human. You just focus on developing the medicine, and leave the needle-giving to me."
You two are really bored, arguing and making me work overtime.
"Chu Shuo, have you thought this through? After you get the injection and turn back into a human, you won't be able to command low-level zombies anymore. There's a chance your special ability will also disappear, and you'll just be an ordinary person."
Yu Ling had also tried to sell these potions to Zhang Hewen's zombie companions, but it turned out that not all intelligent zombies wanted to turn back into humans.
As long as there is at least one zombie in the world, they don't want to be the zombie's food.
Chu Shuo naturally didn't want to either.
Jiang Xue solemnly guaranteed Chu Shuo's future safety, so Yu Ling had no choice but to agree; she couldn't very well kick him out.
Another round of hard work.
Chu Shuo was given a needle by Jiang Xue herself.
The effect is amazing; it works in no time.
Without the characteristics of a zombie, Chu Shuo's looks improved dramatically, and Jiang Xue was slightly amazed. The two of them cuddled together for a while before remembering that there was a third wheel next to them.
Jiang Xue coughed lightly, pretending to be serious, and then waved her hand to settle Chu Shuo in the laboratory, treating Yu Ling's laboratory like a daycare center, completely disregarding Yu Ling's feelings.
Look at what was piled up in the laboratory that the original owner meticulously designed?
A bunch of zombies who spend their days idly playing cards for entertainment.
The remaining experimental materials.
A bespectacled man who is so engrossed in petting cats that he has long forgotten he is still a vice-captain.
A successful prototype of a zombie turning into a human, but in reality, it was pretty useless.
Then there's Chu Shuo, a newly arrived ordinary person who was forcibly inserted by Jiang Xue.
There isn't a single one who can fight.
Yu, the director of the nursery, said that the task is arduous and the road ahead is long.
Chu Shuo lost his superpowers and went from being a zombie king to an ordinary person, which is an indisputable fact, but Yu Ling did not look down on him because of this.
