#313 - Chapter 313 Evolution restart?
Around ten o'clock in the morning.
The chief's office.
After making some arrangements regarding the unusual zombie activity in the morning, Qin Jin instructed the cadres to pay close attention and returned to his base for the next stage of preparations.
Currently, the base has no shortage of weapons and ammunition, and there's even more explosives than before. Coupled with the newly developed zombie-killing weapons, he wouldn't be too afraid even if another large-scale zombie horde came.
It's just a bit annoying.
Why did problems have to arise at such a good time?
Wouldn't it be nice if he could live a peaceful life, surviving until old age with four generations under one roof?
Why must there be difficulties to torment him?
Qin Jin mocked himself, amused that he was blaming some unknown force for his inability to find the cause.
"How could such a thing exist? I must be overthinking it."
Knock, knock, knock.
A knock sounded on the door. After he responded, he saw Zhou Qihang walk in.
Oh?
What wind blew this great scholar over here?
It's been quite a while since he last sought knowledge from Zhou Qihang. Usually, he takes the initiative to find people, and Old Zhou never comes to him.
Qin Jin didn't speak, but leaned back in his office chair, adjusted to a more comfortable position, and quietly waited for the latter to state the reason for his visit.
"President Qin, I have a discovery!"
"Some base doctors came to me earlier, saying that Miss Lin Runwei has a strange illness and asked me to help analyze it."
"As a result, I discovered a miraculous commonality in Miss Lin's blood!"
What miraculous commonality?
Qin Jin couldn't help but be intrigued by Zhou Qihang.
This scholar Zhou was appointed as the head of the base's biological unit last year after demonstrating his abilities, and he is in charge of some special research.
Such as the zombie virus and the secrets of evolutionaries.
Of course, the only evolutionary being studied is Lin Zhijie.
Qin Jin has no intention of letting anyone study him.
During his many master-apprentice-like sessions with Old Zhou, he could clearly sense that the other party was indeed a pure research enthusiast without any ambition.
Therefore, his original intention to prohibit him from studying mutated zombies and evolutionaries gradually relaxed.
In the end, it's because he doesn't have enough time to slowly start researching these things himself.
It would be good to know the secrets of evolution or the special characteristics of mutated zombies sooner rather than later.
So, after the New Year, Zhou Qihang's team has been conducting research on ordinary zombies, mutated zombies, Lin Zhijie, mutated wild boars, and other experimental samples in the ground laboratory.
They have also achieved certain results, learning some characteristics of the D virus and the subtle connections between the various subjects.
So-so, I guess.
At this moment.
Zhou Qihang didn't deliberately keep Qin Jin in suspense. After saying those words, he quickly revealed the following information.
"I discovered that this Miss Lin has the same kind of commonality that exists between all the samples I researched before!!"
Zhou Qihang spoke those words with fervor and shock on his face!
He was indeed shocked just now.
He actually saw that miraculous commonality that he had researched for a long time and once guessed about in the body of a living person!
?!
Qin Jin couldn't help but widen his eyes and reveal a slightly surprised expression upon hearing this!
He had learned a lot of knowledge from Old Zhou before, so he had always understood the other party's research progress and situation on zombies and evolutionaries, and he wouldn't be too unfamiliar with the kind of things they had talked about before!
Qin Jin at this time was like encountering a problem he had been thinking about for a long time and suddenly found a solution, which always makes people want to work out the final answer.
Zhou Qihang naturally knew this feeling. He didn't dare to play any tricks in front of the chief and directly stated:
"President Qin! I suggest immediately taking Miss Lin into custody! Her body is very strange now. You can say she's a living person because she can still breathe, eat, and think. You wouldn't be wrong to say she's a zombie because the concentration of the D virus in her body is extremely high! You can even say she's an evolutionary! She has a composite protein similar to her brother's!"
"I'm worried that she might have other problems, so I suggest isolating her to avoid accidents!"
That's right!
Compared to continuing to chat here, Zhou Qihang felt that taking that Miss Lin into custody immediately was the right thing to do!
"Are you worried she might suddenly turn into a zombie?"
Qin Jin frowned, and his momentum of wanting to continue listening to Old Zhou's research results was interrupted.
If it's really as Old Zhou said, then safety is indeed more important.
He didn't hesitate much, picked up the walkie-talkie, and relayed the order in the armed forces channel.
Especially the combat department, although they felt that the boss's words were a bit strange, asking them to control a woman in the base.
But it didn't prevent them from carrying it out as usual.
Listening to the chief is the right thing to do.
After spending a few minutes, Qin Jin put down the walkie-talkie, and Zhou Qihang, who had been waiting there all along, then continued to finish his words:
"President Qin, I suggest you keep this girl. She may allow us to find the secrets of human evolution and mutated zombies!"
Next, Zhou Qihang continued to introduce Qin Jin to the major discoveries he made when examining and researching Lin Runwei's blood today.
He didn't stop until he had spoken for nearly ten minutes and introduced many kinds of professional knowledge.
Hmm!!
Qin Jin nodded. His heart was not as calm as his appearance. He was also surprised by what Zhou Qihang said.
This girl actually has such great research assistance?
Then she must be well protected and controlled!
Maybe his stopped evolution can find a way to continue improving!
"Okay! You keep this secret and don't let more people know. Next, I will arrange that Lin Runwei has a strange disease that requires isolation and treatment!"
Qin Jin made a decision.
Of course, he will slowly verify whether it is really as Zhou Qihang said later.
He himself also has certain research capabilities. After solving the possible zombie tide and the base continues to develop normally, he can take the time to study!
As long as evolution can continue, his power may continue to improve!
Who doesn't want to be more powerful!
Soon, after communicating with Zhou Qihang for a while, he dismissed Old Zhou and continued to make other more thorough arrangements for this matter.
He is waiting for the zombie tide to be settled, and he will have the opportunity to restart the stalled evolution!
The somewhat depressed mood before was swept away, and the good mood that came from the turnaround in evolution once again took the upper hand.
Come on!
Let him destroy the zombies who dare to invade!
At this moment, he actually ignited a raging fighting spirit!
******
Today, the entire Green Source Base, including the Green Source Zone, was filled with an atmosphere of impending storm.
The news that zombies had formed a zombie tide again and were heading towards Mentang Town spread!
In fact, this kind of thing cannot be hidden at all. The survivors outside searching for supplies have already told the news to the people around them and Green Source!
Many people dare not go out to find supplies, preferring to hide at home to avoid the limelight.
The main base and the sub-base are also much more tense than usual. Not only have they increased the number of defense personnel, but they have also made all personnel ready to be requisitioned at any time.
Preparing to face the zombie tide again!
