Chapter 179 Completing the mission is secondary [46]
Achu has great faith in Su Yiyue's abilities.
Trusted by her, Su Yiyue watched A Chu get into Chen Wang's SUV and leave before heading to the research institute with a worried heart.
Upon arriving at the research institute, Su Yiyue temporarily put aside other thoughts and devoted herself entirely to her work.
She first went to visit Jiang Shimeng.
Jiang Shimeng was sent to the research institute yesterday afternoon.
After testing, it was confirmed that her extreme discomfort was indeed due to her body being unable to cope with the awakening of her superpowers.
Jiang Shimeng is not an isolated case; there are several others like her at the research institute, and they are currently developing drugs to treat her.
After injecting Jiang Shimeng with their newly developed drug, her headache was significantly relieved.
Su Yiyue inquired about her situation before going to her own laboratory.
She has recently made new discoveries in her research on the zombie virus, specifically the massive global meteor shower that occurred before the apocalypse.
Su Yiyue has a meteorite in her possession. Yesterday, while studying it, she discovered that there is a very special substance inside the meteorite, which is similar to the zombie virus but not exactly the same.
She had a theory that the meteor shower before the apocalypse might be the culprit behind the zombie virus.
The materials inside these meteorites might be used to make viral vaccines.
With these thoughts in mind, Su Yiyue had no time to think about anything else and devoted herself entirely to her work.
As for Achu, she and Shen Wang had just arrived in the city.
There's still one problem to solving if we want to get our hands on that meteorite.
How can I have an "accidental encounter" with that mutated animal?
Achu unfolded the map of Beijing in her hand, which she had received when accepting the mission. It marked all the hospitals and pharmacies in Beijing.
They can collect medicines from hospitals or pharmacies.
As Chen Wang drove, he asked A Chu, "Have you decided where to go first?"
Ah Chu pointed to a place called Fu'an Street on the map and said, "How about we go here first? Tongji Pharmacy on Fu'an Street is closer to us."
"I just don't know how many zombies there are."
Fu'an Street was very close to the location of the mutated animal that the system had told her about.
Chen Wang only glanced at the map and knew which way to go.
He nodded and said, "Then let's go to Fu'an Street. There are definitely fewer zombies in the pharmacy than in the hospital."
When the zombie virus broke out, so many people had fevers that almost every hospital was overcrowded.
Therefore, hospitals should be the most crowded places besides schools and tourist attractions.
Several hospitals in Beijing remain untouched since the apocalypse!
There are always missions to move medical equipment in the base's mission hall, and it's not that no one goes to take them on, but almost no one comes back.
Those who returned all went empty-handed.
Shen Wang was planning when to take his team on a trip, but he hadn't mentioned it yet.
Having decided to go to Tongji Pharmacy on Fu'an Street, Chen Wang drove straight in that direction.
There are still many zombies in the city, and they immediately chased after the car as soon as they heard it.
But Chen Wang's car was going too fast and was driving recklessly.
Either leave the zombies far behind, or just smash them into the air.
Soon, they arrived at the entrance of Tongji Pharmacy on Fu'an Street.
As soon as Chen Wang parked his car, zombies surrounded him.
The zombies from half the street crowded around.
Just as the zombies were about to come and pound on the car doors and windows, Chen Wang got out of the car first.
Before getting out of the car, he told Ah Chu to stay in the car first.
Shen Wang's wind-based abilities had become much stronger. With a wave of his hand, he unleashed several wind blades, neatly slicing off half of the heads of the nearest circle of zombies.
As the zombies in the front row fell, more zombies took their place.
Chen Wang effortlessly swung his wind blades, quickly eliminating the zombies until only a few remained.
He didn't waste his supernatural power any more; he took out his long sword and took them down one by one.
Achu sat in the passenger seat and watched as Shen Wang quickly killed so many zombies.
This is a level of strength he has never shown before.
Therefore, before he became deluded, he must have been hiding some strength.
Now that it was just the two of them, he stopped hiding it.
He looked utterly delusional.
Achu thought that if Su Yiyue had developed the virus vaccine in advance, then Chen Wang would definitely not have been infected with the zombie virus like in the plot.
Then where is there any chance of Chen following the male protagonist?
Chen Wang walked around to the passenger side door and opened it for A Chu.
Seeing her looking at him, Chen Wang's eyes flickered.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Achu blinked, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes seemingly filled with stars, gazing at Chen Wang with bright, adoring eyes:
"Brother Chenwang, you're amazing! Killing zombies looks so easy for you!"
Shen Wang's lips unconsciously curled up, and he said modestly, "It's alright."
Actually, I was secretly quite pleased.
He admitted that he had just put on an act, but he couldn't let Achu know that.
Chen Wang reached out his hand to A Chu: "Get out of the car."
Achu nodded and placed her hand in Chenwang's palm.
Her hands were white and small, and looked so delicate and non-threatening.
Shen Wang simply closed his slender fingers and completely enveloped her hand.
Achu was helped by Chen Wang and jumped out of the car.
She tried to pull her hand back, but Shen Wang instinctively gripped it tightly.
"Um?"
Achu tilted her head and looked at Chen Wang with feigned confusion.
"cough!"
Chen Wang coughed lightly and awkwardly released A Chu.
He tried to distract Achu: "Let's go check the pharmacy first. They might not have any medicine there; it might have already been used."
Ah Chu's attention was indeed 'successfully' diverted.
"Okay, let's go in and take a look!"
She was about to walk ahead, but after taking two steps, she stopped as if she were a little scared and waited for Chen Wang to walk ahead.
Half of the glass door of Tongji Pharmacy is broken. It's unclear whether it was smashed by someone or damaged by zombies.
The store was in a mess, with zombie corpses, human limbs, and blackened bloodstains dragged on the floor.
After a quick glance, it was clear that this place had been visited before; the medicine cabinets were wide open, and most of the medicines inside were gone.
"The pharmacy should have a storeroom, right? Brother Chenwang, let's look for it!"
Shen Wang nodded in agreement.
They were quite lucky; although the medicine in the medicine cabinet had been taken, there was still medicine in the storeroom.
Although the quantity wasn't large, Achu was still very happy to store them all in her space.
She turned to Chen Wang with a smile and said, "Having a space is great! I don't even have to move things; I can just put them in!"
Shen Wang's mood was also infected by A Chu's joy, and his eyebrows and eyes were filled with smiles.
As I left Tongji Pharmacy, a few zombies appeared on the street, slowly making their way over after hearing the commotion.
Shen Wang was too lazy to kill them, so he took A Chu and got into the car and left.
They went to another pharmacy on the same street, but it had already been visited and there was no medicine in the storeroom.
Achu unfolded the map, pointed to the area next to Fu'an Street, and said to Shen Wang, "Shall we go take a look here?"
Chen Wang had no opinion.
Actually, his purpose in coming out today was secondary; completing his mission was the least important thing.
Shen Wang preferred spending time alone with A Chu like this.
It was as if they were the only two people in the entire world.
This feeling was so wonderful that Shen Wang couldn't bear to take A Chu back to the base.
A dark thought popped into my head: take her to a place where there are no other humans...
