Chapter 365
When someone came from the imperial capital, Zhong Wenzhou couldn't not show up, unlike Wei Ting who just walked away, feeling very relaxed. After all, on the surface they were still under the leadership of the imperial capital.
Besides, Zhong Wenzhou also wanted to know who the people from the imperial capital were so that he could judge what positions they held, but he had a hunch that they were unlikely to be biased towards the Ling family.
When he saw the person, Zhong Wenzhou thought to himself that it was just as he expected. He regretted that he acted too late and could not leave Hope Base earlier. In fact, the price they paid to get the formula was not too high. If the formula was developed by the imperial capital, they would probably be ripped off even more severely.
While thinking this in his mind, he greeted all parties in the imperial capital with a smile as gentle as spring breeze.
Zheng Wei's mood was not so good. Just after entering the city, they received news that Wei Ting of the S City Base had led the team away when the gate of the Hope Base just opened. It was obvious that Wei Ting was in a hurry to return after completing the purpose of this trip. So why did they still stand in the commanding heights and control the Hope Base?
Not only the S City Base, but even Zhong Wenzhou from the H City Base went there early in the morning and had secret talks with Ling Shaoyang for quite some time. It is very likely that they had reached some terms. Each of them was just trying to hold them back. Now seeing Zhong Wenzhou's beautiful smiling face, Zheng Wei found it very annoying.
In addition to Zheng Wei, there is also a neutral military personnel Qi Jianxin leading the team this time. This is the result of the game between several forces in the imperial capital. The other parties seem to be unwilling to have too much contact between the Ling family and the Hope Base, thereby increasing the power of the Ling family.
The Zheng family had always been at odds with the Ling family, and they were the ones who wanted to suppress the Ling family the most, so they came to the Hope Base with two purposes. One was to force the Hope Base to hand over the formula, and the other was to weaken the Hope Base's strength and influence as much as possible. However, the Hope Base easily handed over the formula before they arrived.
After being sent to the guesthouse to rest, Zheng Wei asked Qi Jianxin: "What do you think? Is our Imperial Capital Base going to compromise with the Hope Base? And what level of superpowers are Ling Shaoyang and Yuan Jing at?"
In Zheng Wei's opinion, the most powerful psychics should be in the imperial capital. The imperial capital has the most abundant resources, the most complete supplies and scientific research capabilities. Let alone other bases, how can a small base that has been established not long ago dare to compare with the imperial capital?
Qi Jianxin said calmly, "Mr. Zheng, don't forget that the most important mission of our trip is to bring back the antidote formula. I hope the conditions proposed by the base are not excessive. Even before the end of the world, the country will allocate funds to various laboratories. As for Ling Shaoyang and Yuan Jing, maybe they have practiced for a long time and their aura is extremely restrained. I can't judge their ability level."
In Qi Jianxin's opinion, there is nothing wrong with the Hope Base and Ling Shaoyang Yuan Jing's enlightenment. What's more, he is also a beneficiary of the supernatural power cultivation method. He clearly feels that the effect of practicing with this method is much better than practicing with crystal cores, not to mention the internal energy cultivation method, which has benefited so many ordinary people. Qi Jianxin is also grateful from the bottom of his heart for everything these two have done.
Zheng Wei was furious: "If the country is in danger, every bit of material must be used where it counts, but the leaders of the Hope Base are only concerned with their own interests, and where do they put the survivors of the entire Chinese nation?"
Qi Jianxin was too lazy to listen to this big talk. Compared to that, who was the most selfish? He walked out and said, "Then please make your own decision, Mr. Qi. Let me know when you have made a decision."
After Qi Jianxin left, Zheng Wei was so angry that he cursed. He was the eldest son of the Zheng family, but this Qi guy actually dared to ignore him. And there was Ling Shaoyang. Although he was a descendant of the Ling family, he did not grow up in the imperial capital and later joined the special forces for training. Therefore, he had almost no contact with Ling Shaoyang. He had only heard of this person's rough life, but he treated it as a joke at that time. He did not expect that they would meet after the end of the world.
Qi Jianxin didn't care about Zheng Wei's attitude, but the representative of the Flame Base came over immediately. Jiang Tianyun didn't take the Hope Base seriously and only wanted the antidote formula, but when it came to the Imperial Capital Base, he tried every means to climb up. Not only did he give Zheng Shao a valuable gift in private, he also revealed to Zheng Wei all the information they had heard about the Hope Base.
Zheng Wei's men immediately got busy, but Zheng Wei did not approach Ling Shaoyang and Yuan Jing to discuss the formula trade. He wanted to obtain the antidote formula at the lowest cost, and would want to take the opportunity to mess up the Hope Base. Bringing the formula back to the imperial capital would be a great achievement for him, Zheng Wei, and the Zheng family's promotion would be a natural thing.
If he couldn't force Ling Shaoyang to hand over the formula, couldn't he get it through other means? He didn't believe that this base and the laboratories in the base were run as a solid fortress. It would be even better if he could take away all the members of the laboratory who had developed the formula.
Within two days, Zheng Wei brought Yu Dingyang with him to wander around the base. Yu Dingyang was a person with precognitive abilities, and it was said that he was extremely interested in Ling Shaoyang. Of course Zheng Wei had to snatch him away to prove to others that Ling Shaoyang was nothing in front of him, Young Master Zheng.
"Brother Yuan, more people have come into contact with the laboratory in the past two days, and there was even one time when someone almost sneaked in." The subordinates reported to Yuan Jing.
Yuan Jing said indifferently: "Don't worry about the laboratory. If they can really get in, I will admire them. For the rest, just keep a close eye on them."
Other laboratories cannot guarantee this, but he dares to say that in his laboratory, not even a fly can fly in without his permission.
"Okay, but how long will they wait before they come to discuss the deal? Are they trying to get something for nothing? How long will this endless wait last?" With these people around, they were restricted in what they could do. They really didn't expect that the people sent from the imperial capital would be of this kind. They were greatly disappointed.
Ling Shaoyang smiled: "They are not in a hurry, why should we worry about them? Maybe they think that the lives of those who died at the hands of zombies in the imperial capital are nothing."
The subordinates were helpless. Yes, they were really worrying about others in vain, as others themselves did not care that much. The same was true for the other two bases. Unlike the bases in S City and H City, they returned quickly after getting the formula. Only by bringing the formula and potion back could they fight against the zombie virus for lives as quickly as possible. This was the correct way for a base leader to open a base.
However, this incident also made them know which bases they need to be cautious when dealing with. Through the attitudes of these leaders, they can guess the general situation in their bases. For example, in the Flame Base, it has been heard that the psychics there are arrogant and have some reservations about the internal energy cultivation methods.
The men left, leaving only Ling Shaoyang and Yuan Jing. Yuan Jing touched Ling Shaoyang's head and said with a smile, "Now I know why you don't want to go to the capital. It's not as comfortable as being the master of your own house now."
"By the way, I thought the Zheng family would send Wu Qifeng here. I was a little surprised when I didn't see him show up. Could it be that the Zheng family doesn't value him anymore?"
Ling Shaoyang grabbed the claws that were messing with his head and said, "The Zheng family doesn't rely on Wu Qifeng as much as Wu Qifeng thought. There are many people who will join the Zheng family, and Wu Qifeng is not the only one. However, among the group of people who came from the imperial capital recently, there are a few who should be around Wu Qifeng. They arrived after Zheng Wei and others, which is interesting."
"Are those reliable?" If nothing unexpected happens, these people should be the ones who followed him or Ling Shaoyang in the original plot and would shine in the apocalypse. They were recruited by Wu Qifeng early after the apocalypse. Does this mean they have seen through Wu Qifeng's true nature and decided to turn to the light?
Ling Shaoyang smiled and said, "No matter whether they are reliable or not, if they are really capable, then promote them. If they really have ulterior motives, it will be revealed sooner or later."
Yuan Jingzhi nodded and stopped asking about Zheng Wei. After having a warm meal with Ling Shaoyang, he turned around and went back into the laboratory. Ling Shaoyang would take care of what was happening outside anyway.
A new drug in the laboratory has also entered the final stage. Now, the people in the laboratory admire Yuan Jing very much. No matter how high the conditions offered by other bases are, they don't want to leave. In their opinion, no one can reach the level of Yuan Jing.
After two days of hard work, a new potion was produced. Yuan Jing looked at the light blue potion in the test tube and said, "Let's name it the primary recovery potion. There will be intermediate and advanced recovery potions in the future. After I discuss it with Shaoyang and send out the task of collecting materials, you can take this primary recovery potion as a reward."
"Those mercenary teams will definitely rush to take the missions. The missions sent out from our laboratory are the most popular among them."
"Of course. Last time it was an antidote, and this time it's a recovery agent. Both of them hit the nail on the head. Moreover, we want this base to be unique. Other bases can't provide such good things."
Everyone is a fanboy and fangirl of Yuan Jing, including those older than him. As for the name of the primary recovery potion? It is so well chosen. As soon as people hear it, they know the purpose of this potion. It is so concise and easy to understand.
No matter what name Yuan Jing gave the medicine, they would applaud. They were so unprincipled.
When Ling Shaoyang received the news from the laboratory, he immediately asked people to distribute new tasks in the mission hall, and the various mercenary teams that had been paying attention quickly gathered together.
"Primary restorative agent? Is it the same as what we thought?"
"That's for sure. Everything that comes out of the laboratory is good."
"Haha, what are you waiting for? Let's go out of the base and collect materials. This time our Storm Mercenary Team must take the lead."
"Storm? Humph, it's us, the Wind and Thunder Mercenaries. You, Storm, will always be defeated by us, the Wind and Thunder Mercenaries."
Although they were arguing, the mercenary teams were moving at a fast speed. One after another, they quickly went out of the base and rushed towards the area where large areas of alien plants grew, forming a completely different picture from other bases.
"What are they doing?" Zheng Wei noticed that many cars were heading out of the base. He was worried about what Ling Shaoyang was up to. "Go and find out quickly."
I hope the base doesn't hide anything from the outside world, so it will be easy to find out what's going on.
"Primary recovery potion? What is that?"
"Master Zheng, the last time there was such a movement, it was to collect materials for preparing the antidote. Most of the mercenary teams in the base went out to complete the mission in order to obtain the antidote as the reward for the mission. The reward released this time is exactly this primary recovery agent."
"Could it be that after the superpowers are exhausted, this primary recovery agent can quickly help restore the superpowers?" someone speculated.
"But can't we recover by using the crystal core?"
Zheng Wei narrowed his eyes, feeling unhappy. He hoped that the base would make such a big fuss, which clearly showed that they did not take him and the Imperial Capital Base seriously. "Keep an eye on it, and find a way to get this recovery potion as soon as possible to see what it is used to restore."
"OK."
