Chapter 195
Rong Rong saved Lu Xiao, but there are others waiting for her to save.
Under the base commander's orders, the snipers on the city wall stopped shooting those who had been injured and infected by Lu Xiao.
They were all brought to Rong Rong by their relatives and friends to await her rescue.
The relatives and friends all had tears in their eyes, happy for them, but also saddened and heartbroken for their relatives and friends who had previously turned into zombies.
Why didn't they meet their goddess sooner?
After leaving the secret research institute, Xiao Mingxu and his team found materials for Su Ke and even went to a university laboratory so that Su Ke could make a few more X-drugs.
Now, Xiao Mingxu and the others have all been injected with the X drug. As for Rong Rong, she has naturally been injected with another dose, reaching the maximum dosage of the X drug.
Rong Rong's superpowers were much stronger than when she saved Yin Wang at the research institute, but she had no idea exactly how much stronger they were.
This time, facing so many infected people, Rong Rong finally figured out her limits.
Her golden light could simultaneously envelop ten people lying side by side, and the purification only took two minutes.
Of course, this time is also directly proportional to the time the infected person has been infected with the virus; the shorter the infection time, the shorter the purification time.
In this way, Rong Rong purified nearly 100 people, barely saving all the infected.
The crowd erupted in enthusiastic cheers, and the base commander, who had been waiting nearby, led his men forward excitedly to speak with Rong Rong.
However, Rong Rong suddenly went limp and fell backward, losing consciousness completely amidst gasps of alarm.
Due to the overexertion of her supernatural abilities, Rong Rong fainted.
Ruan Qing watched this scene from afar. She also saw that, including Han Qi, everyone seemed to run towards Rong Rong the moment she fainted.
She was shocked and incredulous. She thought the female protagonist was an ordinary person who had not only awakened superpowers but could also purify the zombie virus from infected people.
Moreover, she can purify so many people at once. With a female lead like this, is the antidote for the zombie virus still important?
At this moment, Ruan Qing felt utterly desperate. She suddenly realized how powerful the plot was and how powerful the female lead's halo was. It was simply a pipe dream for her, an outsider, to try to steal the female lead's halo.
No matter what she does, it can't compare to the female lead showing her face. One second she steals the father of the antidote for the virus, and the next second her halo allows the female lead to awaken her purification ability.
I feel so powerless.
As if her energy and spirit had been drained, Ruan Qing became dejected and pessimistic.
While she was lost in thought, Rong Rong had already been ushered into the base.
"You damn green tea b*tch, I've finally caught you!"
Wang Tao roared in fury, and Ruan Qing immediately snapped back to reality. Wang Tao, fists clenched, charged at Ruan Qing in a fit of rage, just like a nightmare for her. Ruan Qing screamed and turned to run away, forgetting all about maintaining her image and forgetting to refute Wang Tao immediately.
At the entrance, countless people stared at Ruan Qing's retreating figure with strange expressions. Little did she know, Wang Tao, like a megaphone, was spreading the word about how Ruan Qing had deliberately delayed to try and kill Rong Rong, and how she had betrayed her teammates.
Because of Rong Rong's special ability, everyone in their team no longer needed to be quarantined. They were simply registered and then assigned houses, which were extremely luxurious villas, more than enough for all of them.
Since Rong Rong moved in, there have been many people coming and going at the entrance of the villa. They either pretend to be passing by or pretend to have something to do. In short, they linger nearby, always watching to see if anyone is coming in or out.
Among these people were those who had seen Rong Rong at the base entrance that day, and those who hadn't seen her but had heard of Rong Rong's reputation as the Goddess of Purification.
To be honest, the description of Rong Rong's beauty by the group of people at the base entrance already seemed very fake, not to mention that Rong Rong's special ability was to purify the zombie virus.
The first reaction of anyone who hears these rumors is that it's impossible, that people are dreaming.
Even if they didn't believe it, some of them would still go to Rong Rong's villa to find out what was going on.
Many others remained silent, simply waiting for the official response.
However, the authorities acted as if nothing had happened, and people were convinced that the rumors were false, until Lu Xiao appeared in public unharmed.
The entire base was in an uproar that day.
Lu Xiao was infected with the virus, but he recovered completely. What could be more shocking than this?
That day, the area in front of Rong Rong's villa was almost overcrowded. It was only after the base dispatched soldiers to drive away the onlookers and guard the villa entrance that Rong Rong was able to have some peace.
Rong Rong hasn't gone out since she woke up. To avoid trouble, if anyone from the base needs her, they will visit her at her home.
On this day, it was Lu Xiao, who had fully recovered, who came to see Rong Rong.
Although he was full of energy at the time, one could still see the weariness in his eyes.
Many people died because of his mistakes, and he will compensate the families of those people.
If the principle of "an eye for an eye" was upheld before the apocalypse, then in this world where resources are life itself, Lu Xiao could use resources to atone for his mistakes. However, he would find it difficult to live with himself.
Lu Xiao bowed deeply to Rong Rong, his heart overflowing with unspoken words, which were summed up in just two: "Thank you."
He's always been a man of action; he never talks as much as he does.
In fact, he still had a brief moment of consciousness at that time. When he threw the wind blade at Rong Rong, he was filled with immense panic.
He never imagined that his first experience of falling in love would happen when he was about to lose his life and turn into a zombie, and that he was about to hurt the other person.
At that moment, sorrow and pain overwhelmed him. He desperately tried to control himself. He didn't want to hurt the other person, but he had already lost control of his body. That helplessness of only being able to watch was the cruelest torture in the world.
He couldn't understand why God was so cruel to him, having saved countless lives, making him kill so many people at the end of his life, and even having to kill the love of his life with his own hands.
Lu Xiao let out a painful cry, which seemed to finally move the heavens, and things took an unexpected turn for the better.
That being, like a goddess descending from the heavens, not only escaped unharmed but also transformed him, who had become a zombie, back into a human.
The other person not only purified his body, but also his soul.
In the past few days, Lu Xiao's mind has been filled with thoughts of her. He learned that her name was Rong Rong and secretly called her name countless times in his heart.
He desperately wanted to see her, but he suppressed his urge to disturb her until he had a legitimate excuse to appear before her.
"Besides expressing my gratitude, I have another reason for coming. On behalf of the Beijing base, I would like to invite you to join the search team."
Lu Xiao's gaze was calm and composed; he was the most composed person Rong Rong had ever met when facing her.
Perhaps because of this special quality, Rong Rong had a good impression of the other party and joined the search team without much hesitation.
She found it very interesting, and it could also save more people and improve her own superpower level.
