#165 - Chapter 165 Learning Ability

Inside the hospital room.

Zhou Qihang gasped for breath!

It was the first time he had encountered such a situation, almost suffocated by the gaze of a young man!

What on earth had just happened!?

It took him a while to return to normal.

Hearing the young man's words, he didn't immediately respond, mainly because he was also full of questions and didn't know where to start.

Qin Jin seemed to sense his state and gestured to Chen Junchi beside him, saying:

"Introduce him to the situation outside."

Chen Junchi nodded upon hearing this and said to Zhou Qihang, who was still confused:

"The outside world is now a post-apocalyptic world. The government has disappeared, and there are terrifying zombies everywhere. This place is a base established by President Qin, where a group of people band together to survive. We found you while searching for supplies today."

He quickly stated some general information. Zhou Qihang's eyes widened as he listened.

By the end, after Chen Junchi finished speaking, he slumped down, staring at the floor in disbelief, and said in a daze:

"It's really the end of the world."

Qin Jin didn't let him continue to lament, interrupting his thoughts and saying to him again:

"Now that you understand the situation, we don't accept useless people here. Tell us your value. If you're useful, you can stay; otherwise, we'll have to ask you to leave."

Zhou Qihang refocused his mind. He had just heard that this man with the terrifying aura was the leader of this place.

He said he would be thrown out if he had no value?

As a highly intelligent intellectual, his mind raced, considering the consequences of being thrown out.

It would definitely be terrible!

He had to stay here to have a chance of survival!

He would figure out the situation here and whether the outside world was really as they said, and then decide what to do. At least he wouldn't starve here!

His sparsely haired head was now organizing his words as quickly as possible, and he began to speak:

"My name is Zhou Qihang. I'm a lecturer at Yangcheng University and also a researcher. I teach genetics at the university. I've led many research projects before and have a lot of experience in biological genetics. I've published two Q1 SCI papers and several Science papers, and so on."

"That night, after I finished eating, I was in the lab with a few students, just starting to prepare for a new experiment, when someone started acting strangely, frantically biting the students next to him!"

"When we realized what was happening, it was very similar to the Resident Evil movies we had seen before. We thought about subduing the mutated student, but we didn't expect that we couldn't beat him at all, and more and more people started to mutate. We had no choice but to run for our lives."

"I hid in a room that was usually used to store experimental materials and samples, relying on some experimental white mice and a little bit of experimental water to survive until now. If you hadn't come, I probably wouldn't have been able to hold on!"

"I can research zombies for you! I've been immersed in genetics for many years, and I already had a lot of ideas when I was trapped. I was thinking that if I had the chance to come out, I could study them!"

Zhou Qihang became excited as he spoke.

However.

Qin Jin still stared at him expressionlessly.

It wasn't until Zhou Qihang calmed down again that he said noncommittally:

"In that case, I'll temporarily keep you at our base for observation. I'll give you an assessment later. Only if you pass will you become our official member."

After saying that, he put down his arms, which he had been holding, turned around, and walked towards the door without looking back.

He just left like that.

Zhou Qihang was dumbfounded.

Did I say something wrong just now?

He sat on the hospital bed, at a loss.

Chen Junchi, who was next to him, seemed to know the boss's temper, smiled at Zhou Qihang, and said:

"Rest first. We'll look for you later."

After saying that, he had already chased after President Qin with the combat team members next to him.

Leaving Zhou Qihang alone in the room.

Naturally, others would come to continue observing this newcomer in a different way. There was no need for the combat team members to continue watching him personally.

Qin Jin seemed to be walking relatively slowly, and Chen Junchi quickly caught up with him from behind. Seeing him come to his side, he said to him:

"There shouldn't be any problems with the person found at the target location. It just depends on whether he's really an intellectual. I'll personally examine him later."

"Tomorrow, after he recovers a bit, arrange for him to repair the walls or do other work first, to smooth out his edges before we talk about anything else."

The walls probably still need to be repaired for another day or two, which is a good opportunity for this newcomer to experience it.

Chen Junchi nodded in agreement.

After the two chatted briefly, they dispersed to busy themselves with their own affairs.

It was already evening.

Zhong Yu's helicopter had also returned.

They also brought back a lot of instruments and equipment, but unlike Li Bowen and Chen Junchi, they didn't encounter any situations, such as encountering mutated zombies or picking up newcomers.

They were now processing the materials for storage.

In the afternoon, Li Bowen also set off again and brought back the remaining items. The mutated zombie was also brought back by them in a special box and had just been arranged by Qin Jin to be preserved in a freezer.

Before putting it in, he didn't forget to completely dismember the zombie.

Finally, he personally transported it to the little-known secret laboratory on the second basement floor.

This place was planned from the beginning of the base's construction, and it was only recently filled with the instruments and equipment he had found and put into use.

Only he has the key to open this place, and he doesn't intend to let anyone in the base know about it for the time being.

Now that he has the instruments, there are also many books and textbooks, and today he even found a suspected academic advisor.

He felt that there was a mysterious force pushing him to study. (Is it the author?)

The base already has human evolutionaries and mutated zombie materials, so he would really be letting himself down if he didn't do some scientific research in the future.

Since being reborn, especially after the end of the world began, he felt that his thinking speed seemed to be evolving and strengthening along with his physical body.

Now, he can create combat plans and base development plans with ease. Hundreds of thoughts can be resolved with the optimal solution with just a flash in his mind.

He often has a feeling of clarity and transparency.

His memory is also much better than before. Not to mention reading ten lines at a glance, at least the information he has seen and heard can be retained in his mind for a longer time, and he can quickly recall it when he thinks about it again.

He felt that if he went to study in his current state and reread high school, he could definitely get into China's Top 1 university.

At night.

After Qin Jin finished dinner, he stayed in his office, picked up the books behind him and looked at them, and confirmed again that his learning ability had indeed greatly increased.

Hmm.

It seems that he will have new things to be busy with in the future.

Also, the first corpse mist day after the mutated Night Queen should be coming in a couple of days, when the walls are partially completed, right?

He needs to make some preparations again.
