Chapter 695 Zombie Virus Serum
So far, human beings are already very strong individually, far from being the weaklings they were at the beginning of the virus outbreak. But humans still have no way to avoid zombie viruses.
Even a seventh-level domainer like Wang Tao may die if he is infected by the zombie virus.
Therefore, the zombie virus is still one of the most serious problems at present. Unless you hide in the base, never go out. But judging from the current situation, whether the base can persist is still a question. Moreover, the base may not be 100% safe, and zombie viruses are impossible to guard against.
Therefore, if zombie virus serum can be produced, the problem that has plagued mankind for so long can be solved!
Judging from the research progress of the Hope Research Institute, the last piece of ancestor virus data is needed before the zombie virus serum can be successfully produced. If this data can be obtained, I hope the institute will have a probability of producing zombie virus serum with more than 95%!
The data in front of Wang Tao is probably the last ancestor virus data that the Hope Research Institute needs!
Of course, Wang Tao is not 100% sure. After all, he does not understand these things, and the identification method was taught to him by Qu Shilin.
Wang Tao looked around. The decoration style of this laboratory was somewhat similar to that of the Hope Research Institute, but it was much simpler.
Many people in white coats are busy, seeming to be studying crystal energy.
Wang Tao was not surprised that they were able to use crystal energy. Qu Shilin said before that the level of the Phoenix Laboratory is no worse than that of their Hope Research Institute. If the Hope Research Institute can research things, the Phoenix Laboratory will definitely be fine.
However, the same use of crystal energy also has high and low levels. The current research stage of Phoenix Laboratory is still inferior to that of Hope Laboratory. For example, they all manufacture crystal energy vehicles, but the gap is extremely obvious.
It's not that they are incompetent, but that it's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without straw. Over at Changhe Base, the Hope Research Institute can freely study sixth-order crystal nuclei, and as soon as Wang Tao has all kinds of good and weird things, he will send them to the Hope Research Institute. And here... Looking at the third-order crystal core they studied, Wang Tao shook his head.
After looking around for a while, Wang Tao came to a woman he liked.
"What is this?"
Wang Tao placed the information he had just taken from the glass cabinet in front of the woman.
The woman was just about to look at the microscope when she heard Wang Tao's voice. Her hands trembled with fright and she almost dropped the materials in her hands.
It was visible to the naked eye that the woman was a little angry. She was about to curse, but when she looked up, she found a very unfamiliar big man in front of her.
"Who let you in! Get out quickly! No one can interrupt our work, don't you know?"
Wang Tao ignored the angry woman and asked again:
"What is this?"
"..."
Women are not stupid. At this time, they finally realized that something was wrong.
Not to mention that there is security at the entrance to their laboratory, so ordinary people cannot enter at all. Even if a stranger sneaks in, anyone who is not so focused should be able to see the two-meter-tall tall figure, right?
But at this time, her colleagues were still busy with their own affairs, some were doing experiments, some were communicating, and some were drinking tea. But except for herself, no one looked at this big guy, as if he didn't even know what he was doing. It’s like it doesn’t exist!
"You...you are a human or a ghost!"
The woman yelled, with a fierce expression and a trembling tone, as if she was scared, but she actually used the loudness to remind her colleagues.
But the strange thing is that when she made such a loud voice, her colleagues acted as if they didn't hear her and continued to do their own things - not only did the colleagues ignore the big man in front of them, they also ignored her!
An unprecedented fear instantly surged into the woman's heart. She knew that this was not a ghost. It should be some kind of awakening ability that blocked other people's perception of them, but people are scarier than ghosts! Who knows what ulterior motives the other party has? Especially the one who sneaked in, there is obviously a big problem!
But after all, women have personally experienced a zombie virus outbreak. If they can survive such a situation, their mentality is much better than that of ordinary people.
She quickly looked at what Wang Tao was holding, and then said quickly:
"This, this is part of the data of the initial virus. The initial virus was the virus when the zombie virus broke out for the first time... But the current zombie virus has mutated into many versions. This thing has long been useless, but Saved for collection..."
The original virus, the ancestor virus, etc. are just called different, but they are actually the same. After the woman confirmed that this thing was the ancestor virus data, Wang Tao put it directly in his pocket.
"Very good, thank you very much. I just took the things away. If you get results later, I will give you some."
After saying that, Wang Tao turned around and left.
"..."
The woman was a little confused. What could the initial virus do? This thing is no longer useful!
And this person just left like that?
This man almost scared her to death. She even thought that the Church of Twilight was about to be attacked from the inside by bad guys. But in the end, this man took a useless souvenir and left?
"etc!"
The woman suddenly shouted out of nowhere.
After shouting these words, the woman regretted it. This person of unknown origin was ready to leave. If she stopped him, wouldn't she be looking for trouble?
"What's wrong?"
Wang Tao turned around, a little confused.
Perhaps because of the Hope Research Institute, although Wang Tao doesn't have a good impression of the Twilight Church, he still has a good impression of Phoenix Laboratory. If this data were in the hands of the bishop, Wang Tao would definitely have snatched it first. How could he be so polite?
Seeing that Wang Tao didn't do anything radical, the woman had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak:
"...You, how did you do it?"
While speaking, she pointed to the colleagues around her who turned a blind eye to Wang Tao.
"It's just a small mental trick, not worth mentioning."
Wang Tao waved his hand.
This is not Wang Tao showing off, it is indeed just a small trick. The principle is to use mental power to interfere with the cognition of creatures within a certain range, making them unable to perceive themselves. This ability can only be effective on weak people. With Wang Tao's current seventh-level strength, he cannot hide it from the sixth-level. The fifth-level with keen perception may also find clues. As for the people in the Phoenix Laboratory, they don't even have level 4 people, so lying to them is just like playing tricks.
"..."
The woman opened her mouth and wanted to say something more, but Wang Tao waved his hand to her.
"See you again when you have a chance."
Then Wang Tao walked out swaggeringly.
"..."
When Wang Tao's figure completely disappeared from her eyes, the woman quickly called to her colleagues.
"Lao Li, Lao Li, Lao Li!"
The bald middle-aged man next to him turned around speechlessly.
"I'm not deaf. I heard you when you called me once... What's wrong?"
"……fine."
The woman was silent for a moment, then pretended to be calm and shook her head.
The big guy just now was obviously a strong man, and he was probably as strong as the bishop of the Dusk Church! She had better not provoke a strong man of this level and just pretend that she didn't see anything.
Isn't it just a piece of discarded information that was lost? It's not a problem. Moreover, the data in their Phoenix Laboratory is backed up. They can just find a backup and put it there later. No one will care whether it is the original version...
After Wang Tao left the Phoenix Research Institute, he was not in a hurry to go back. Instead, he walked around the Twilight Church headquarters and took a good look at the status of the survivors.
It can be seen that the survivors here are basically believers of the Church of Twilight. After all, the Church of Twilight provides safety, shelter, food, work... The price is just for you to believe in their religion. Not to mention this kind of good thing in the end of the world, even before the end of the world, there will probably be people who will continue to do it.
What was surprising to Wang Tao was that these survivors did not have the negative effects of consuming the "holy medicine" before and were all healthy. "Has the Church of Twilight become a good person? Or, was it impersonated before? But that's not right. If someone has the ability to impersonate the Church of Twilight many times in the last days, then why would he impersonate him? Can't he just be himself... …”
Wang Tao really didn't understand.
At this time, Wang Tao suddenly saw an acquaintance in a yard.
"It's really here!"
Wang Tao's figure flashed and appeared next to a woman wearing a gray robe.
The woman was packing a large piece of pickled fish when Wang Tao's sudden appearance startled her.
She subconsciously threw the pickled fish at Wang Tao, then quickly retreated, took out the dagger hidden in her waist, and was about to shout.
Wang Tao reached out to catch the pickled fish, and then asked curiously:
"What kind of fish is this? Tuna?"
"……grown ups?"
Zhao Yaru, who was just about to shout, held her words in. She looked at Wang Tao in disbelief.
Although Wang Tao's body has grown bigger again, his appearance, temperament and voice all indicate that this is Wang Tao! The priest who saved their entire Zizhu base!
"Master Priest, it's really you!"
After confirming that this was Wang Tao, Zhao Yaru immediately took back the dagger and ran to Wang Tao with excitement on his face.
"Long time no see. It's good to see you're okay."
Wang Tao smiled and patted Zhao Yaru on the shoulder.
This woman is none other than Zhao Yaru, the former leader of Zizhu Base.
At that time, they were facing a life-and-death and food crisis. Wang Tao saved their lives, helped them get a lot of food, and saved the lives of the entire base survivors. And this Zizhu base happens to be a believer in the Twilight Church...
When Wang Tao showed the badge of the senior priest and exposed some of the evil deeds of the Twilight Church, everyone in the Zizhu base knew that they had believed in the wrong person before, and they should not have believed in that bishop. Wang Tao was the orthodox member of the Twilight Church. , trust Wang Tao!
Wang Tao also thought at the time that he would not suffer anyway, so just trust him. Isn't it just providing shelter? That's absolutely fine. If more people really believe in Wang Tao, they might even cause some trouble to the bishop!
In this way, Zizhu Base was protected by Wang Tao.
When the temperature rose rapidly and the underground air-raid shelter where Zizhu Base was located could no longer be inhabited, Wang Tao immediately went to see how they were doing. As a result, all the people in Zizhu Base disappeared. Only Zhao Yaru left a message saying that they went to the Dusk Church. .
Since then, Wang Tao has never seen them again, and Wang Tao doesn't know if they are still alive. Now that he sees Zhao Yaru, he is very happy to see that she is still alive and well.
"Me too! It's great to see you're okay, sir!"
Zhao Yaru was excited and happy from the bottom of her heart, but as if she had thought of something, she quickly closed the courtyard door and brought Wang Tao into the house.
"Is everyone else okay?"
Wang Tao asked.
"They are all alive and well. We were disrupted after we came here and were assigned to different places. But we have been in contact all the time. We occasionally spread your deeds secretly..."
Zhao Yaru explained immediately.
"...That's good."
Wang Tao was relieved to hear that they were all fine. As for spreading his deeds, Wang Tao didn't take it seriously. With his current strength, he didn't think that this bishop was his opponent. After all, from the information he heard from various sources, this bishop had not reached the seventh level.
"By the way, what's going on with this bishop now? How come I found that these survivors are still in good health, and it doesn't look like they have used holy medicine..."
Wang Tao asked directly.
Zhao Yaru is one of the few people who knows the true face of the holy medicine of the Twilight Church, so asking others may not be able to find out, but Zhao Yaru should know something.
As expected, Zhao Yaru whispered to Wang Tao:
"Sir, when I came here before, the people here were not in good health, just like the state you said after taking the holy medicine! But later, the bishop took out a new version of the holy medicine, and those people gradually got better after taking it! But I don't know if they are really better or have other problems, so I have never dared to take the holy medicine, including those who came from our Zizhu base, they didn't take it..."
"So that's it!"
Wang Tao suddenly realized that he said that it shouldn't be someone pretending to be the Church of Twilight. Now it seems to be true.
As for why the bishop made these people healthy again, Zhao Yaru didn't know, anyway, she only knew that these survivors were still taking these holy medicines. Zhao Yaru kept a lot of new versions of the holy medicine, Wang Tao took some, and went back to let Qu Shilin study what this thing is used for.
"...I was going to talk to the bishop, but I didn't expect him to be away."
Wang Tao told Zhao Yaru his purpose.
Zhao Yaru immediately said:
"Your Excellency, you came at an unfortunate time. The bishop went out this morning. I don't know where he went or what he did... Anyway, he always comes back after three days or more..."
"Three days... OK, I'll come back in two days."
Wang Tao didn't stay with Zhao Yaru for long. Although she was a deacon, she didn't know much. They had taken advantage of the weakness of many survivors to trick them into changing their beliefs and no longer believe in the bishop, but in Wang Tao.
This made Wang Tao laugh and cry, but it was all a small matter and he didn't pay much attention to it.
It was difficult to get into the headquarters of the Church of Dusk, but it was easy to get out.
Wang Tao left the Church of Dusk easily and went straight to the Changhe Base.
…
"You're back, and what you got this time - ah? The last data of the ancestor virus! It's really the data of the ancestor virus, wow, awesome!"
Looking at what Wang Tao handed over, Qu Shilin exclaimed, took it with trembling hands, and stroked the rough frosted texture of the cover of the data. Qu Shilin was so excited.
But she was very rational and didn't get carried away by her joy. She had to confirm whether the data was authentic and whether there were any problems.
An hour later, there were no problems with the test of this data, indicating that the data was correct.
Qu Shilin immediately hugged Wang Tao tightly, and then said confidently:
"Give me five days, and I should be able to produce the zombie virus serum!"
In fact, the speed may be faster, but there may be accidents, so it's better to be conservative.
Wang Tao smiled and said:
"Five days? So fast? No problem, then you can start, and if you need anything, just contact me."
…
The speed of the Hope Institute far exceeded Wang Tao's expectations. Qu Shilin said it was five days, but in fact it only took one and a half days to produce the first zombie virus serum!
