Chapter 610 Zombie Civil War

"Huh? Haven't you set off yet?"

After Wang Tao and his team returned to the base, they went directly to the Hope Research Institute. When Qu Shilin saw them, she suddenly looked surprised.

Didn't Wang Tao say he was going out today? It's already evening, why haven't you set off yet?

Seeing Qu Shilin's doubts, Wang Tao burst into laughter.

"We're back."

"Uh... I thought you guys would be resting outside!"

Qu Shilin scratched her head, thinking that Wang Tao and others came back to rest.

Wang Tao didn't say anything more, but directly handed the ancestor virus research information he just obtained to Qu Shilin.

"This is..." After Qu Shilin took it, she opened a page at random, and then immediately got stuck.

Swish--

She hurriedly turned back a few pages eagerly but gently. After confirming that this was indeed what she was looking for, Qu Shilin was so excited that her body was shaking. She quickly looked at Wang Tao, fearing that she was dreaming.

"This, this is part of the data of the ancestor virus!"

"It seems we have found the right one."

Wang Tao smiled and shrugged, and Ding Yuqin and others also smiled.

Qu Shilin's confirmation also made them relieved. After all, they were not professionals, and they could not guarantee that this was 100% research data on the ancestor virus.

"Oh my God! You really found it! And compared with the information you gave me before, this information is completely studied from another angle. There is almost no overlap between the two information! This is exactly what I Something that is urgently needed now... Oh my god..."

Qu Shilin was so excited that she was a little incoherent.

Although she asked Wang Tao to help find these things before, she didn't have high hopes. She would be thankful if she could find them. It didn't matter if she couldn't find them... But she didn't expect that Wang Tao would really find them on the first day she went out. Found it!

This is a good sign! Maybe she will be able to develop a zombie virus elimination potion soon!

"You can sit down wherever you like, but don't leave yet. I'm going to verify these information!"

After Qu Shilin got excited, she quickly said hello and then rushed directly into the laboratory.

Wang Tao shrugged, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, Qu Shilin came out of the laboratory.

"Finally confirmed, there is no problem with these information!"

The smile on Qu Shilin's face couldn't be concealed at all.

"As long as it's no problem, let's go back first."

Wang Tao got up, but was stopped by Qu Shilin.

"Wait, can you tell me who compiled this information? There is no indication on it..."

"Oh, this person's name is Wang Jing..."

Wang Tao briefly talked about what happened before, including the fact that the lord zombie evolved into a disaster zombie after eating Wang Jing's corpse.

After hearing what Wang Tao said, Qu Shilin opened her mouth. She was obviously confused. Her thoughts were the same as Wang Tao's before - didn't she expect that this could evolve?

"Wang Jing... I will write his name on the future antidote to the zombie virus!"

Qu Shilin clenched her fists and said.

"Huh? Can the antidote be developed?"

Wang Tao was suddenly surprised.

"Ahem, not yet. I have to study this information carefully and do some experiments before I know if I have a chance to develop an antidote to the zombie virus..." Qu Shilin shook his head first, and then said The face said firmly, "But judging from the current situation, there is a great chance! I will not sleep tonight and work overtime to see if it works. I will give you news tomorrow morning!"

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news and we'll go back first."

Wang Tao smiled and patted Qu Shilin on the shoulder.

"Okay, I won't send you away. I have to hurry up and study." Qu Shilin immediately got into the laboratory again.

"What a workaholic..."

Wang Tao smiled and then returned home with everyone.

When entering the door, Lan Yulian suddenly said:

"Wang Tao, you said that if you really develop an antidote to the zombie virus that can turn all the zombies out there into humans, then if we kill zombies now... wouldn't we be killing humans?"

These words made everyone pause instantly.

This logic... sounds reasonable?

Wang Tao was also stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head.

"Not to mention that today's zombies are not equal to humans at all. If you don't kill the zombies, the zombies will kill you, so you must kill them!"

"And even if Qu Shilin can develop an antidote, there shouldn't be any way to turn zombies that have mutated for more than a year into humans, right? If it can, then this is not an antidote, but a miracle medicine!"

"Taking a step back, even if this antidote is really that powerful and can turn these zombies into humans, everything has a price, and the antidote will definitely have certain limitations. I estimate that the biggest limitation may be the raw materials. It’s relatively expensive, and it’s impossible to produce too many antidotes at one time. There are at least billions of zombies in the world. How many medicines are needed to transform all of these zombies into humans?”

"So, you might be a little too optimistic."

"..."

After listening to Wang Tao's words, Lan Yulian opened her mouth. She felt that what Wang Tao said made sense. Maybe it was because she saw Qu Shilin so excited today and looked like she would be able to develop an antidote soon, which really made her a little optimistic.

"You are still too kind!"

Wang Tao smiled and pinched Lan Yulian's face.

But as a nanny, it’s normal to be kind.

"I hope Shilin can really develop an antidote..."

Lan Yulian held Wang Tao's hand.

…

The next day, early morning.

As soon as Wang Tao got up, Qu Shilin received a voice message.

"Wang Tao! Are you awake? I've been busy all night, and I've already got preliminary research results!"

After hearing these words, Wang Tao didn't even have time to eat, so he packed it up and ate it on the way to the research institute, and brought a portion to Qu Shilin by the way.

"Wow! You also brought me breakfast, thank you!"

In the research institute, Qu Shilin saw the breakfast and quickly thanked her happily.

Although the institute also provides breakfast, the quality is not as good as that at Wang Tao’s home. When she is free, if there is someone at Wang Tao's house, she likes to come to Wang Tao's house to have a meal.

While eating breakfast, Qu Shilin looked at Wang Tao and his group and said:

"After a night of research, I have now come to two conclusions. One conclusion is good news, and the other conclusion is also good news, but not that good... So, which one do you want to hear first?"

"That's certainly good news!"

Wang Tao spoke without hesitation.

"The good news is that I am now 100% sure that using these ancestor virus research data, it is possible to create an antidote to the zombie virus!"

Qu Shilin clenched her fist fiercely and said.

"Niu beep!"

Everyone was happy to hear this. If an antidote can be developed, the biggest threat to mankind from zombies will be gone!

"But I have to tell you that the antidote to the zombie virus I'm talking about is, to be precise, a serum that can resist the zombie virus. It cannot turn those zombies that have mutated into humans again, but after being injected with the serum, humans , can be immune to zombie virus infection..."

After Qu Shilin finished speaking, Wang Tao and the others looked at each other.

They also discussed yesterday that if the antidote can turn the zombies outside into humans, then whether killing zombies now counts as murder.

Now after listening to Qu Shilin's explanation, there is no doubt - killing zombies is not equivalent to killing people, because people who become zombies cannot become humans again! This serum plays a preventive role...

"Is this the bad news..."

Wang Tao asked.

He thinks this news is also good news, which can avoid many problems on human ethics. If we could really turn the zombies outside back into humans, it might be troublesome in the future. After all, who doesn’t have a few relatives and friends? Everyone wants their relatives who have become zombies to turn back into humans.

Moreover, there must be those who are kind, compassionate, and even some saintly people among humans. If they feel that the zombies outside are also human beings and want to rescue those zombies, maybe something will happen that harms the interests of normal human beings...

Therefore, unless all the zombies in the world can be turned back into humans instantly, then this is indeed a good thing.

Otherwise, to a certain extent, it is a good thing that the zombies outside cannot turn into humans...

But what surprised Wang Tao was that Qu Shilin shook her head.

"No, what I just said is the good news. The not-so-good news is..." Qu Shilin glanced at Wang Tao, looking a little embarrassed, "The data of the ancestor virus is not enough to produce a zombie virus serum... "

"...You mean, I have to continue looking for research information on the ancestor virus, right?"

"Um!"

"...Then this is indeed not good news."

Wang Tao smiled helplessly.

Seeing Qu Shilin's behavior just now, he thought he would soon be able to develop a zombie virus serum. However, Qu Shilin told him that the information was not enough and he had to continue looking.

Yes, I was so happy earlier. As long as there is not enough information about the ancestor virus, the good news Qu Shilin said before is almost equivalent to nothing.

"Ahem, although I have to continue to trouble you to find the ancestor virus data, I can clearly assure you that if we can find data similar to yesterday's volume without too much duplication in the future, we will probably need it again. With 4 copies, we can piece together a complete ancestor virus data! By then, I will be 100% able to develop the zombie virus serum!"

"..."

Looking at Qu Shilin, who was patting her chest and looking confident, Wang Tao was speechless.

What she said is that we also need data similar to yesterday’s volume without duplicate content. In other words, if the volume is large and the data is not repeated, then only one copy of the data may be enough. However, if you are unlucky and find duplicate data, there is no upper limit...

But as Qu Shilin said, this is not bad news, at most it is not so good news. Because Wang Tao can at least see the progress bar. If you're lucky, you might be able to find it right away.

"Okay, I will continue to look for it."

Wang Tao nodded.

Even if he doesn't look for these ancestor virus data, he will still go out to hunt zombies. He has to prepare for promotion to the seventh level.

Yesterday's disaster-level zombie didn't even have the power of the primary law. It would be a hard job to gather 100% of the power of the primary law. He will next hunt for a large number of sixth-level zombies and strive to achieve the six basic conditions required to advance to seventh-level. Hunting zombies and finding the data on the Ancestral Virus go hand in hand, so just do it together.

"Thank you very much!"

Qu Shilin felt that this was troubling Wang Tao and was quite embarrassed.

"I'm not helping you, I'm also helping everyone and myself."

Wang Tao chatted with Qu Shilin for a while, then stood up and said to everyone:

"Then let's go to the second destination."

The awakening fruit is not ripe yet. I will go there after two days. Wang Tao plans to go to the planned destination first to see if he can find a research data of the ancestral virus as lucky as yesterday.

"Okay!"

"Be careful on the road and be sure to pay attention to safety!"

"We will."

After saying goodbye to Qu Shilin, the group took the golden eagle and left Changhe Base again.

"The temperature is warming up very quickly!"

The moment they passed through the barrier, everyone felt the change in temperature outside. Although it is not comparable to the temperature inside the barrier, it is at least two or three degrees warmer than yesterday.

"At this rate, it will probably take a few days to return to the most suitable 25 or 26 degrees for humans?"

"Is it because of the heavy rain? As the saying goes, 'It's not cold when it snows, but it's cold when the snow melts'. When we were just starting to melt the snow, a sudden corrosive rain melted all the snow. Now there is not even a little snow outside, so it is not so cold, and the temperature is rising quickly..."

"That makes sense!"

Everyone laughed and talked all the way, heading towards the second destination.

On the way, the golden eagle did not fly too fast. Everyone was staring at the ground carefully to see if there were any level 6 lords.

After the heavy snow stopped and another corrosive acid rain fell, there were obviously many more zombies on the ground, and their levels were not low. Level 5 and level 6 zombies could be seen everywhere. But most of them were ordinary and elite zombies, and level 6 zombies were still very scarce.

However, this does not mean that there are few level 6 lord zombies. According to past experience, since level 6 ordinary zombies and level 6 elite zombies have appeared in large numbers, level 6 lords must have appeared earlier, and the number is definitely not small!

The reason why Wang Tao and his team have not encountered level 6 lords is probably because the level 6 lord zombies do not know where to hide and secretly summon other zombies!

Under normal circumstances, there will only be one lord zombie in a certain range. Unless there are higher-level zombies suppressing them, otherwise, these lord zombies will fight for territory. At present, the seventh-level zombies have not appeared yet, and the disaster-level zombies are not sociable... Then there are no other zombies that can suppress the sixth-level lord zombies, and these sixth-level lord zombies will fight for territory.

Since they are lords, they certainly cannot fight alone, so Wang Tao has reason to speculate that those sixth-level lord zombies are likely to recruit younger brothers to expand their own team so that they can fight for territory...

Just when Wang Tao told others about his guess, the golden eagle suddenly called out.

"Huh? There are sixth-level lord zombies in the distance, and there are more than one, and they are fighting? Come on, come on, join in the fun!"

Chi——

The golden eagle responded and immediately flew away.

Wang Tao and his team's vision is far worse than that of the golden eagle. The golden eagle's eyes are like telescopes. After a while, everyone finally found the zombies it was talking about.

There are a total of three sixth-level lord zombies on the ground, each of which leads a large number of other zombies to form a zombie army.

At this time, the zombies of the three zombie armies are fighting, and the scene is a bit chaotic.
