Chapter 263 The Original Heroine of the Apocalypse Who Became Cannon Fodder (Part 9) "Uncle Zhao..."
"Uncle Zhao, this is a superhuman I found on the road. He was bitten by a zombie three days ago. He left the group on his own so as not to implicate his teammates."
Tonight I ran into my former teammates who were alone again; these two are right next to me. Despite being unwell from poisoning, they still managed to save him.
Lin You introduced Cheng Xiao seemingly casually, but pointed out his identity as a superhuman, as well as his loyalty, sense of kinship, and the fact that he did not discriminate against ordinary people because of his superhuman status.
At this point, she winked at her former boss: "Didn't you tell me yesterday that our experts have developed a special drug for the zombie virus?"
I remember there's one dose left. Could you perhaps apply for it for him? Although that medicine is extremely rare, this comrade has already killed so many zombies.”
The old leader immediately understood and feigned hesitation, saying, "Xiao Lin, you know that there's only one dose of that medicine left. It's a great antidote for the zombie virus, and we still have so many of our own people here, just in case."
After being stunned for a while, Luo Yang and Shen Junhao finally understood. These people had something that could save Cheng Xiao, but because it was too precious, they were hesitating whether to use it to save Cheng Xiao.
As locals, they recognized the former leaders who frequently appeared on television. Chinese people have a high level of trust in government officials, so they did not doubt the authenticity of the medicine.
The two men knelt down with a thud and pleaded, "Brother Cheng has wind-type superpowers. He's fast and has strong attack power. He has a great advantage whether it's fighting or saving people. As long as you save him, we three will do our best to fulfill any orders you may have in the future and will never delay in the slightest!"
After saying that, he put the dizzy and somewhat delirious Cheng Xiao into a kneeling position and was about to make him kowtow.
“No, we don’t need that here…” Zhao Feng and the leaders next to him immediately stepped forward, helped the three of them up, and even thoughtfully prepared a bed for the patients.
Lin You then pulled her seemingly reluctant former boss towards the office not far away. Luo Yang and the others could still faintly hear her persuasive voice:
“We are currently in need of people with superpowers to save lives. His superpower is really strong. If he can be cured, he will definitely be a great help.”
Saving lives is urgent, like putting out a fire. You can't just hoard things and expect them to multiply. Besides, Dr. Liu is still conducting research; there will definitely be more medicines in the future…”
Lin You spoke in a low voice, loud enough for outsiders to hear, as she pulled the old leader into the office, then pulled out a mineral water bottle.
The water in the bottle shimmered with a faint, shimmering blue light, and a refreshing aura wafted out as soon as the cap was slightly unscrewed.
The old leader hurriedly tightened the bottle cap. He had no doubt about the efficacy of the things Lin You had given him, but said somewhat helplessly, "Should I arrange for an expert surnamed Liu to help you?"
Lin You smiled. After a smooth and cooperative collaboration, her tone was much more friendly than during the day.
"This bottle contains spiritual spring water, which can cure the zombie virus. It can be taken internally or applied externally. Using it more often can also increase your superpower level. It also has some effect on injuries to ordinary people. You can decide how to use it."
The guy outside who got poisoned has pretty good superpowers, at least among the top superpowered individuals currently available. It's a shame he died like that. And judging from their conversation, he probably has several superpowered teammates. If he were treated better… you know what I mean.”
The old leader nodded. Although Lin You insisted on saying she was a superhuman, her identity as a cultivator was still quite obvious. However, according to legend, such people would encounter certain limitations, so he pretended not to know.
He quickly called over the youngest man in the building, and before the man could even react, he made the decision: "This is Xiao Liu, he will be the expert Liu who develops special drugs from now on."
Liu Yuewen, who usually only handled security and odd jobs, stared in disbelief as he took the mineral water bottle. He couldn't even memorize the most basic periodic table of elements, and his biology was a complete mess. How did he become an expert in researching special drugs?!
Lin You then took out some glass bottles and asked him to repackage the spiritual spring water and attach some handwritten numbered labels. The originally ethereal spiritual spring water was instantly transformed into a laboratory-produced medicine.
Seeing that she carried a complete set of equipment, the former leader asked her if she had any medical syringes. Medical syringes, he explained:
"Since this stuff can detoxify, it's naturally absorbed more fully when injected. Compared to oral or topical administration, injections allow the drug to directly enter the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system and skin barrier, and quickly and completely distribute throughout the body."
When Lin You went to the pharmacy to collect supplies before, she would take everything with her, including syringes. She simply grabbed a handful and handed them over.
The experienced leader directly decided on the method of using the medicine. Lin You had no objections. Having someone step forward to take responsibility for this would actually allow Liu Yiyi to remain completely hidden in the background.
Even a time traveler probably wouldn't imagine that something as unscientific as a spiritual spring could be related to a syringe.
Liu Yuewen was even more confused. He looked at the syringe that Lin You had shoved into his hand, extremely conflicted: "I've never used this thing before, I don't know how!"
Lin You patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Did you ever play with water with syringes when you were little?"
Liu Yuewen nodded.
Lin You continued, "Did you receive any injections when you were sick?"
Liu Yuewen nodded again.
Lin You spread her hands: "That's fine, it's not much different from when you play in the water."
Liu Yuewen: ...!
"Sis! This is worlds apart! I've never even given an injection to a pig, let alone a human!"
Lin You waved her hand: "If you don't know how to give intravenous injections, just give it to your muscles. If you give it to him to drink, it would probably take a whole bottle to detoxify him. If you give him an injection, he might not even use a quarter of it. Three injections a day would only give him 30 milliliters, and it would make us look like we're doing our best."
When Liu Yuewen reluctantly took the syringe and went out, Zhao Feng had already convinced, or rather, persuaded, the three of them, and even had them sign and complete the onboarding process.
In a daze, Cheng Xiao felt as if he had been taken to a very far place, a noisy place with many people, but he could sense that familiar people were around him.
He thought he would never wake up again, but some random guy pricked him with a needle and woke him up from the pain.
After seeing that the person had woken up, Lin You didn't pay any more attention to what happened next. She explained the city's water and electricity shortages and some of the problems she had compiled, and then took her leave.
Since arriving in this world, Lin You has been constantly saving people, but one person's ability is always limited. She only hopes that the authorities can take action as soon as possible.
Lin You ran around the city delivering supplies all night, and didn't get home until dawn. After Liu Yiyi washed up and ate, he took people to the administration building to report for duty.
Jian Meng and Xia Tian, the two young girls, were quite familiar with Lin You and her companion, so the old leader directly arranged for them to receive them. Xia Tian chatted with Liu Yiyi all day yesterday, and they quickly hit it off.
For example, the administration building now has an exit, and I don't know how they discussed it with the wisteria, but they just made a wisteria hanging basket, so anyone who wants to go out can be sent down.
The wisteria was always worried about them going out to find supplies alone, so every time, a few vines would peek out from the doorway.
Jian Meng also recounted the situation of the three people who were brought in yesterday. Cheng Xiao had already received two injections from Liu Yuewen, and each time he shouted louder than the last, indicating that the medicine was indeed effective. He now seemed to be in good spirits.
Lin You then realized that the person she had saved was Cheng Xiao, the second-in-command of the Longyuan Squad and the male protagonist Long Yu's good friend and capable subordinate.
That's a real find!
Cheng Xiao's ability to become the vice-captain of the Dragon Abyss Squad is certainly not solely due to his powerful supernatural abilities; he has also played a significant role in strengthening the team's cohesion.
He can handle everything from personnel management and resource allocation to even conflicts within a team.
When team members encounter danger, lack supplies, or need someone to charge into battle, he is always the first to step forward, truly a man of both literary and martial talents.
In the storyline where the time traveler didn't actually travel through time, Liu Yiyi was accepted by the Longyuan team because she saved Cheng Xiao, who was infected with the zombie virus, using the spiritual spring water.
Unexpectedly, even without Liu Yiyi, Xiao Saying failed to obtain the Spirit Spring cheat, and they still followed the same old path.
Lin You chatted casually with the people, and before long he was assigned a task: to take the communications expert from before to find the walkie-talkies that the expert had left in the research lab, and then hand them over to different people.
This shouldn't be too difficult for Lin You, and the communication expert's human navigation is also very useful, so Lin You doesn't need to bring Jian Meng along.
Liu Yiyi was quite busy today, as she was responsible for helping to move supplies. Accompanying her were Cheng Xiao, who had recovered a lot of strength, and his two little followers.
It wasn't that the leaders insisted on making the wounded work; it was mainly because this person felt he was almost fully recovered and was just collecting supplies, which wouldn't make much of a difference.
Besides, the three of them will be living here from now on and will need supplies. How can they expect the other three to provide food and drink after using their most precious medicine?
With Cheng Xiao helping to clear the way and collect supplies, Liu Yiyi's space was responsible for transportation, and the other two little followers were responsible for assisting. Lin You even gave Liu Yiyi two extra storage bags.
This thing isn't difficult to make; it's just an ordinary pocket with a spatial expansion array. Lin You can make a bunch of them by hand in a day.
Liu Yiyi can now bring back more supplies from a single trip than the entire Longyuan Squad combined. After Lin You completes her mission, the administration building will also be completely transformed.
The original offices were all replaced with double dormitories, and a stove was placed in the council hall. After the renovation, the five-story building can accommodate many people.
Protected by wisteria, no zombies dare to approach. Although it's not very convenient to get in and out, the safety is greatly guaranteed, making it a very suitable place for technicians to conduct research.
Regarding hydropower, the official actions were much faster and more decisive than Lin You had imagined.
The old leader, accompanied by two other leaders who frequently appeared on television and were well-known to the public, took advantage of the time before dark to sit in the exclusive sling seat on Lin You's flying sword.
While asking Lin You to fly them around the city, they took out a very down-to-earth megaphone and began to address the people.
