#315 - Chapter 315 Treasure Girl
Noon arrived.
The entire Green Source Base was mobilized, everyone aware of the impending crisis of another zombie horde attack.
No one dared to joke at a time like this.
Along the walls of the main and branch bases, personnel had been continuously moving various weapons into position since morning, including long spears, crossbows, heavy machine guns, and other tools for killing zombies.
They were being installed in the designated locations as if they were free.
The warehouse had also prepared a full stock of well-preserved ammunition.
They were just waiting for the leader's order to quickly deploy to the battlefield!
Having recently experienced the Anti-Green Alliance incident, Green Source's response speed was now completely different.
Everything was adjusted to its optimal state.
Among the combat units, with the exception of Zhang Tiankai, who had been stationed at the Zhushi Oil Base for an extended period (though he had returned to the base twice to transport the produced fuel), all other squads were present.
The security department was also almost fully staffed.
In addition, there were numerous external personnel employed by the branch base, all of whom possessed considerable combat capabilities and could quickly adapt to battle!
Not to mention the three to four hundred people from the branch base and the residential area who came to work!
At this point, Qin Jin disregarded the base's population exceeding five hundred, as they were still facing an estimated zombie horde of over one hundred thousand!
This far exceeded the number of zombies that a typical thousand-person base would normally attract!
Qin Jin had pondered whether the large number of survivors in Green Source had triggered this large-scale zombie horde.
He suspected it.
But he wasn't sure.
Because according to his memories from his previous life, there were similar organizations that planned in this way.
The total number of personnel scattered among them was one or two thousand, yet he had never heard of them attracting the formation of a large-scale zombie horde?
He couldn't figure it out.
Moreover, Qin Jin always had a faint feeling that something was wrong.
But he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
He decided to try to find the answer after dealing with this zombie horde attack.
"Keep a close watch on the surveillance! Also, clear out as many zombies as possible outside the walls in advance to reduce the pressure later!"
"Let the people from the branch base use cold weapons or recyclable ranged weapons to kill zombies first, to save ammunition as much as possible!"
Inside the conference room of the leader's office building.
All of the base's officers were present, listening to the leader's arrangements.
Qin Jin methodically directed the overall strategy, while the officers refined the implementation of the detailed tasks.
Everyone had only one goal:
To withstand the zombie horde attack!
"By the way."
"Our base's Miss Lin Runwei has developed some symptoms, suspected of being contagious, so she needs to be quarantined for observation. I'm informing everyone about this, and our base's medical team will find a way to treat Miss Lin later."
He briefly described the matter of "imprisoning" Lin Runwei to the captains and mentioned some of Zhou Qihang's research speculations.
Sure enough.
Upon hearing that the girl might be contagious, no one had any objections.
To put it bluntly, no one would dare to say anything even if they threw her out of the base.
After all, it concerned the safety of everyone.
Now, she was only being controlled, not completely deprived of her freedom. According to Chief Qin, she could still walk around the base when she was awake, as long as someone accompanied her.
Except for Dong Hui, the production captain.
He clenched his fists and lowered his head in silence.
He knew that this subordinate had recently had another incident, but he didn't expect it to be so troublesome!
He greatly admired this subordinate.
Even to the point where that admiration had transcended the scope of ordinary superiors and subordinates.
He silently resolved that he must find a way to solve this "strange disease" on her in the future!
"Alright, everyone, go get busy! We are fully capable of overcoming these difficulties!"
The meeting was nearly over, and Qin Jin took the initiative to dismiss it, allowing everyone to return to their respective posts.
The zombie horde had not yet officially arrived, and some departments still had to continue working.
******
A four-story building located in a corner of the main base.
This was the experimental building that Zhou Qihang used specifically for research.
Qin Jin had hired someone else to renovate and build it at the end of last year.
It wasn't very professional, but it could be described as having a certain level of chemical protection. He often conducted research on zombie viruses and samples collected from outside with Zhou Qihang here.
At this time.
In a room on the fourth floor of the laboratory, Lin Runwei was arranged to stay.
It was a fairly large room, similar to a hospital room.
It was filled with some instruments, and she was lying on a hospital bed, connected to equipment that monitored various indicators. A camera in the corner of the ceiling was constantly working.
On one of the walls, there was a large piece of tempered glass, and Qin Jin, Zhou Qihang, and several doctors were standing outside the room, staring at the "sleeping" person inside.
"What's her condition now?"
Qin Jin spat out this sentence without turning his head. The personnel beside him had obviously prepared their responses in advance, and one of the doctors spoke up to answer:
"Chief Qin, although Miss Lin's blood tests appear abnormal, Miss Lin only appears to be in a coma on the outside."
"Also, her brainwave activity is a bit abnormal, appearing unusually active, many times more active than when a normal person is awake or dreaming!"
"As for when she will wake up, we are not sure. It is possible that she will never wake up, or it is possible that she will suddenly wake up on her own like last time."
This doctor spoke for nearly a minute, and other doctors behind him also chimed in to add some points of view.
Qin Jin remained silent, pinching his chin with his right hand, his eyes constantly staring at Lin Runwei inside the tempered glass.
He had a inexplicable feeling when he saw this woman at the entrance of the hospital before.
A feeling that attracted him.
Now, this feeling was even stronger!
It was like seeing a beautiful woman exuding an alluring fragrance, a feast for the eyes.
That temptation made it difficult for him to remain calm!
He waved away several doctors, leaving only Zhou Qihang beside him, before he asked expressionlessly:
"How can we extract the substance from her body that can allow humans to evolve?"
"Also, how confident are you in this?"
His question went straight to the core.
He wanted to continue to evolve and become stronger!
Of course, he didn't intend to really believe Zhou Qihang right away. At least, he would try to figure it out and confirm it himself before implementing it.
Anyway, there was no shortage of experimental materials outside.
"Our base has centrifuges and various other equipment, so it's not difficult to separate various substances.
But there are too many unknown substances in Miss Lin's body, and I need to do more experiments to determine them. Moreover, there is also the issue of dosage. Only after all of this is done will there be a final answer!"
Speaking of those magical substances and experiments, Zhou Qihang couldn't help but reveal a fanatical expression on his face.
For a researcher like him who liked to explore, the appearance of such a special "material" was absolutely something he couldn't wait to immerse himself in the laboratory every day to dig out the secrets inside!
This woman was definitely a huge treasure!
