Li Kongyuan seemed to have expected this, and handed the blue folder in his hand to Banxia: "Take a look at this before you make a decision."
Banxia opened the paper with a puzzled look, and her pupils suddenly contracted when she saw the words on it.
Progress report on research into the antidote for the zombie virus!
She eagerly turned to the next page, where a data set of infected individuals after receiving the vaccine appeared before her eyes.
According to the report, the antidote can effectively prolong the time it takes for infected people to turn into zombies, by one to two hours!
Banxia's mind was almost in complete chaos. What she had spent three years researching in her previous life, she had accomplished in less than half a year in this life?
Li Kongyuan explained from the side, "We cannot completely eliminate the zombie virus for the time being, but we can prolong the time it takes to turn into a zombie, which shows that the research direction is correct. It's just a matter of time before we can completely overcome it."
Banxia felt a mix of emotions. Water, wood, and healing type ability users could purify the zombie virus, so research on antidotes for the zombie virus was discontinued after humans evolved abilities.
It wasn't that scientists lacked the spirit to get to the bottom of things, but rather that there were very few scientists left with the energy to do research at that time, and there were simply too many difficulties to overcome, so they had to focus their limited energy on other more pressing research work.
The document was thick, and she continued flipping through it, wanting to see how many surprises this life would hold for her.
"A superpower potion?!" X6
Nanxing and the others said in unison, while Banxia remained silent.
In the year she died in her previous life, the Base Research Institute created the first drug that could stimulate the limits of the human body, which is the "superpower drug" in this life.
The effect of superpower potions is not to directly stimulate superpowers, but to increase the chances of acquiring them.
Even so, a single dose of superpowered medicine can fetch an exorbitant price, and demand still exceeds supply.
Li Kongyuan's tone was filled with undisguised pride: "As you have probably noticed, the evolution speed of plants, animals, and zombies far exceeds that of humans, and the intelligence of plants and animals after evolution is no different from that of humans."
"Scientists speculate that in the near future, plants, animals, and zombies will evolve superpowers that are only found in novels, and then dominate the planet."
"The crisis of human extinction is imminent. Developing superpower drugs to catch up with the mutation rate of plants, animals and zombies is humanity's last way to survive."
Su Yao looked on in disbelief: "I thought only chuunibyou like me had such wildly imaginative ideas, but I didn't expect scientists to be the same!"
Nanxing and the others looked at him speechlessly. So you knew you were a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur)?
Banxia carefully reviewed the plan twice and noticed that the report did not mention zombie crystal cores: "Have you conducted experiments using zombie crystal cores?"
Li Kongyuan hesitated for a moment before saying, "It has been used, but the volunteers died from massive bleeding in their meridians less than half an hour after eating the zombie crystal cores, so the experiment was quickly stopped."
"However, scientists have found a way to dilute the energy of zombie crystal cores, and I believe that this time we will definitely succeed."
Banxia lowered her eyelids, remaining noncommittal, and continued to roll her eyes down.
Potatoes that can withstand temperatures as low as -40 degrees Celsius can weigh up to 50 kilograms per plant. They have coarse fibers but a mediocre taste.
Water spinach, which can withstand temperatures of 50 degrees Celsius, sprouts rapidly and grows to 30 centimeters in just two days, with a sweet and refreshing taste.
The wheat, which can withstand temperatures of 50 degrees Celsius, has only been planted for less than half a month, so its effects are not yet apparent.
That's a real surprise!
Seeing the slight softening in their expressions, Li Kongyuan pressed his advantage: "I would like to hire you in exchange for these three items."
Cai Yuan, who was good at negotiating, quickly regained his composure and said calmly, "Director Li, you're just making empty promises to us."
The antidote for the zombie virus is a semi-finished product, the development of the superpowered drug failed, and the only finished food crop is that they could wait until it becomes widely available and then exchange the supplies with others. There is no need to risk their lives to enter the city with the plague.
“Yes,” Li Kongyuan smiled calmly, his expression filled with strong confidence, “I am indeed painting a picture for you, but isn’t this picture delicious?”
"Once the cake is successfully made, you can be like the protagonist in the movie, commanding the wind and rain, killing zombies with your left hand and torturing mutated animals with your right, becoming great heroes that everyone envies and admires."
Having survived one apocalypse, Banxia says: Hehe!
Do you think people with superpowers are like weeds, everywhere?
The ratio of ordinary people to single-element ability users is about 100 to 1, while the ratio of dual-element ability users is 1 million to 1. As for triple-element ability users, she had only seen one in her previous life, and that was Ms. Yan Ning, the base director of the S City base.
If all seven of them were to evolve superpowers in the future, they would be as lucky as someone who casually bought a lottery ticket and won a hundred million.
She looked at Li Kongyuan with a half-smile: "Human evolution is slightly slower than that of plants, animals, and zombies, but having superpowers is only a matter of time, and we can wait."
That's what she said, but that's not what she really thought. No one understood the principle of being one step ahead and staying ahead every step of the way better than her.
Upon hearing this, Su Yao and the others nodded frantically: "Yes, we can wait!"
We must never dismantle the platform of our own people!
Zhou Wen immediately became anxious: "How can you be so cold-blooded, only thinking about your own interests and disregarding the lives of more than 100,000 people and the greater good of the country!"
"Zhou Wen!" Li Kongyuan stopped her, then turned to apologize to Banxia and the others, whose faces didn't look too good, "Sorry, she hasn't slept for two days, so she spoke without thinking!"
Cai Yuan said with a mocking smile, "If it weren't for your mismanagement and allowing the survivors to eat mutated rat meat, how could they have contracted the plague?"
Su Yao rolled his eyes without any politeness and retorted: "You can make excuses if one or two, or even dozens or hundreds of people are infected with the plague by saying that the base is short-staffed, but if more than 100,000 people are infected with the plague, it is definitely a problem with the base's management. As the manager, where do you get the nerve to morally blackmail us?!"
