Chapter 1424: There Is only One Step Between a Madman and a Genius

northwest.

Inside the ancient city wall in the west of Jiayu City.

The boss poured a cup of hand-brewed coffee, picked up a book and took a look.

But I can't seem to calm down.

It has been almost a week since Xu Zhi set off for the northern border. Since contacting them three nights ago, he has not heard from them again.

At that time, Xu knew that the location they reported was in Yuan City, and they planned to go to the north tomorrow.

But after that night, there was no news.

Thinking of this again, the boss dropped his hand on the stool next to him.

He rubbed his eyebrows and asked, "What's going on!"

Could it be that he was really detained by those people in the north?

Looking back now, it seems a bit reckless to send Xu Zhi there.

But if you think about it carefully, you can wait a little longer.

If there is no news later, it means Xu Zhi and the others must have had a problem.

If those people from the north really dare to detain me,

The boss's eyes suddenly turned cold. If you don't drink the toast, you'll get a fine drink, so don't blame me for not giving him a chance.

He didn't care whether Xu Zhi lived or died, but after all, Xu Zhi had followed him for many years, and the entire northwest knew that Xu Zhi was his confidant.

If Beijing kills or detains Xu Zhi, then Beijing will undoubtedly slap himself in the face by doing so. Beijing's attitude is unacceptable to the boss.

Being able to kill Xu Zhi is also a warning to the boss from the north.

Attitude is very important, and bosses care about attitude.

I was feeling restless, holding back a breath of bad breath, and could no longer read any more books.

"Let Yin Jipeng come over." The boss suddenly shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking, a subordinate who was always waiting at the door ran in quickly.

"Okay, boss."

After Xu Zhi led the team to the north, the boss still needed someone, and being able to serve him would be a good opportunity for many people.

There is no shortage of people around the boss. For people like the boss, even if Xu Zhi dies, he will not be sad.

ten minutes later.

Yin Jipeng hurried to the door, adjusted his breathing slightly, and took a deep breath.

After knocking on the door and getting permission, he walked in.

"Boss, you're looking for me."

"Um."

The boss nodded slightly and put down the book in his hand gently.

"Get ready. Select dozens of people with good eyesight and quick thinking from the team to carry out a secret mission in a few days."

Yin Jipeng thought for a while and asked, "What is the mission?"

"I'll tell you later. You need to prepare first and choose the right person. Oh, by the way."

"There is another condition for the people selected. They must have family members and relatives living with us."

Upon hearing this familiar request, Yin Jipeng's eyes flickered.

He guessed that it might be related to the North and Oil City.

The last time the boss asked him to find a suitable person to go to the north, he also made such a request.

Xu Zhi took those people out and has not come back until now.

I'm afraid the boss asked him to find someone this time, probably because of this matter.

"Okay, boss." Yin Jipeng did not continue to ask. If he continued to ask questions, if the boss got angry, he would not be in a good mood at that time.

"Go down." The boss waved his hand without looking at him.

"good."

Yin Jipeng turned and left.

In the northwest central building, there are meteorites placed on the second underground floor.

This extraterrestrial meteorite is placed in a room made of all metal, and entry and exit need to be opened with a code lock.

On the opposite side are two layers of transparent protective covers in vacuum mode.

If there is no oxygen injected, people will suffocate and die if they stay inside.

On a platform in the center of the two-layer protective shield, there is an irregular oval meteorite. This meteorite exudes a faint halo and presents a colorful black color.

This metal-structured room stands in the center of the second underground floor.

The second underground floor is empty, except for a dozen guards who are on guard here 24 hours a day, there is no one else.

On the underground floor is the research institute set up by the North.

This institute does nothing but research on zombie vaccines.

There are seven or eight people in the research institute busy here. Surrounded by iron railings and transparent glass, there are all kinds of zombies, including the newly discovered wall-climbing zombies.

There was even a shelf with many dismembered zombies, with various parts of the zombies soaked in transparent jars filled with formalin.

A whole row of shelves were neatly filled and arranged in categories, with the organs of the zombies written below.

"Alas, there are no original parameters. We just rely on experiments to determine. There are tens of millions of possibilities. This is lower than the chance of winning a lottery ticket." A relatively young man raised his head and pushed the microscope forward. discouraged.

An old man with gray hair next to him raised his old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses.

"Xiao Hu, when we do research, we have to be patient, don't rush for success, and don't be discouraged. When we come up with the research, all the energy, sweat and time we put in will be worth it."

Xiao Hu is probably in his early thirties, with a pale face and beardless face, and thin lips, which give people a sharp look.

"Professor Wang, if we do this kind of experiment, it will take us forever. If all of us test the sample parameters a day, we can only do it ten times at most, with 10 million possibilities. We can only rule out 3,650 in a year, and 36,500 in ten years, and that's if we don't eat, drink, or rest."

"In ten years, we can only rule out one thousandth, which is too slow."

His words resonated with the other people in the research institute.

On the road of research, we always fall into the situation of doubting ourselves.

This was often encountered in many biochemical fields before the end of the world.

Professor Wang felt that the atmosphere in the research institute was a little subtle, so he said:

"Back then, I developed the human body."

Xiao Hu was a little annoyed. He had heard this from Professor Wang countless times.

At this time.

I heard Professor Wang mention again that he had spent half his life studying and overcoming a major problem in human kidney and bone marrow transplantation.

He frowned in annoyance, but he didn't dare to contradict Professor Wang.

Professor Wang is the dean of the research institute, but he has a good temper and is very patient.

He is a real scientific research expert.

But he is a little pedantic.

"Professor Wang, I still think we can use the method I mentioned before."

Xiao Hu couldn't listen any more, so he interrupted:

"Since there are tens of millions of parameter tests, we may not be able to find the parameter in our lifetime. Why not do this? Let's not take the traditional research route."

"We will use the most matching immature vaccine we developed, circle a certain city, and give the vaccine liquid to a large number of zombies, so that these zombies can transform and mutate themselves."

"With so many zombies, there will definitely be a lot of variants. Obtaining so many different types of variant samples provides us with a lot of references. At that time, we can reverse the parameters based on these variants, and then conduct human experiments.

Even human experiments can adopt this large-scale method at that time."

Xiao Hu became more and more excited as he spoke, and didn't notice that Professor Wang's face became more and more ugly as he spoke.

As soon as the voice fell.

Boom!

Professor Wang, who was calm just now, was furious and threw the white gloves in his hand heavily on the laboratory table.

"What are you talking about, do you know!?"

"So many zombie variants are released in a city. The characteristics of zombies themselves have the law of the jungle. You put so many immature vaccines in the past. No one knows what kind of zombies will be born. Can we control it?"

Once these zombies run out, do you know what the consequences will be? It is very likely to spread and infect other zombies!

Your idea is very scary! "

"Besides, the speed of zombie mutation is not slow now. Don't you think it's not fast enough? You have to seek death. If you follow your idea, the consequences may make our situation even more dangerous! "

"They also conduct large-scale experiments on human bodies. I don't even bother to say anything about Huang Shiyong. He captured so many innocent survivors for experiments. It's a crooked way! "

His hair stood on end with rage.

Everyone in the research institute was silent. They had never seen Professor Wang lose his temper so much.

Xiao Hu lowered his head and said nothing.

But his eyes were full of dissatisfaction.

Research is very energy-consuming, especially for those who are eager to achieve quick results. They keep grinding and grinding, and sometimes they take detours.

Like a madman, he never considers the consequences.

"Xiao Hu, don't mention this matter again. "Professor Wang warned again.

Professor Wang was very worried about Xiao Hu's method.

Once the experiment was tested according to Xiao Hu's method, it might speed up the research of the vaccine.

However, his method was too risky.

The outbreak of the apocalypse was not because the scientific research team violated the rules and extracted trace elements from the meteorites to make anti-cancer vaccines.

It did not follow the prescribed clinical standards at all. Generally speaking, the clinical trial of vaccines usually takes 3-5 years, and clinical trials of vaccines also need to go through multiple stages.

But the anti-cancer vaccine was coerced by capital and the trial was compressed to a few months.

On the one hand, capital has invested a lot of money and needs to recover the cost and get paid as soon as possible.

On the other hand, those who have cancer and are living a worse life than death and undergoing chemotherapy, with only a few months left to live, people.

And some cancer patients are high-ranking and powerful, holding great power.

One wants to sell as soon as possible to recover funds, and the other wants to buy as soon as possible to survive.

For those cancer patients who are in the countdown of life, they are unwilling to give up any straw, and they will try their best, even if they have not undergone compliant clinical trials.

They are going to die anyway, so why not give it a try.

So, under such circumstances, vaccines that have not undergone compliant clinical tests are pushed to the market.

They are launched openly and aboveboard.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't meet clinical standards

Under the promotion of pharmaceutical companies and the powerful people with diseases, non-compliance has become compliance.

Non-compliance has become compliance.

In this world, the standards are set by them, and it's just a joke to talk to them about standards.

Just like that, things that are obviously non-compliant are launched on a large scale.

Unexpectedly, the drug for curing cancer has amazing effects.

In just a few weeks, a large number of cancer cells disappeared, and some people even recovered directly.

A month later, the cure rate reached a terrifying 80%!

A storm arose.

You should know that before the end of the world, there were tens of millions of new cancer patients a year, and this is still new!

The anti-cancer vaccine costs millions of dollars per shot, which the poor cannot afford,

but it is just a small matter for the rich.

It is worth buying a life for millions of dollars.

There are many rich people in this world. As the vaccine spreads,

some poor people even began to raise funds to buy a drug, and then a dozen people shared a drug, which was actually effective, but the effect was much worse.

Soon, after a heavy rain,

everything changed.

Professor Wang was worried that something similar would happen again.

The previous lessons are still being suffered.

If Xiao Hu's method is followed, it may lead to the appearance of more terrifying zombies. At that time, humans will fall into a completely desperate environment.

"Dean Wang, calm down. Xiao Hu also wants to develop a vaccine as soon as possible. Young people are eager for quick success. Don't argue with him." A middle-aged woman came over to smooth things over.

Pulling Xiao Hu's clothes, "Xiao Hu, you also promise Dean Wang that you can't think like this in the future. I know your idea is well-intentioned, but it's too scary."

Professor Wang looked at Xiao Hu and began to consider whether to let Xiao Hu leave the research institute temporarily. After all, he was afraid that Xiao Hu was too stubborn. What if

Xiao Hu lowered his head and thought for a long time.

He didn't expect Professor Wang to be so angry. If he didn't bow his head and admit his mistakes and give a promise now, Professor Wang had the right to kick him out of the research institute.

The welfare benefits of the research institute are the best among all jobs in the entire northwest.

If Dean Wang kicks him out, he will never enjoy this kind of welfare benefits again, and he may have to do some very hard work in the future.

Thinking of this, Xiao Hu raised his head and bowed to Professor Wang sincerely and sincerely.

"Dean Wang, I was wrong. I thought too simply.

You are right. We who do scientific research must be able to endure loneliness and hardship.

Just like when you studied human kidney and bone marrow transplantation, you studied like an ascetic monk for forty years and finally succeeded.

All previous efforts will not be in vain."

"Thank you for warning me and not letting me fall into the abyss of self. I promise you that I will completely eliminate that idea from my mind and will not mention it to you again."

"In the future, I will learn from you and focus on the things at hand, and don't be impatient!"

Xiao Hu's tone, attitude, and even expression are very appropriate.

In addition, Xiao Hu inadvertently flattered Professor Wang, which made Professor Wang calm down a lot, and the idea of ​​letting Xiao Hu leave the institute was temporarily shelved.

"Well, Xiao Hu, you are very smart and studious. I understand that young people are eager for quick success."

"It's okay, this matter is over. I see my past shadow in you. You are a good seedling. Take your time. When we develop a vaccine, you will look back and everything will be worth it!"

"Yes, I understand. Thank you, Dean Wang." Xiao Hu said very seriously.

Professor Wang smiled and said with emotion:

"The long road ahead is like iron, but now we start from the beginning."

"Come on, let's do the next experiment."

Xiao Hu nodded, returned to the seat where he was sitting just now, put on gloves, and put his eyes on the microscope to observe.

The moment his eyes were close to the microscope,

his eyes suddenly changed, full of unwillingness, and even a hint of madness,

the idea in his heart was deeply hidden by him.

There is no chance now,

but one day he will find an opportunity to test his great idea.
