Chapter 364: You can't even change your mother

A short silence. Duan Wuhu saw Zhang Su smoking and not speaking, his heart skipped a beat, and he said anxiously: "Brother Zhang, you wouldn't support them in doing those strange experiments, would you?"

"Exhale..." Zhang Su exhaled a puff of smoke and said earnestly: "Old Duan, many things aren't that I don't want to, but I can't not do them. The development of the situation will force us onto a path we don't want to walk. Not to mention far away, just take the Green Dragon Legion..."

"Our plan was proper, and we wiped out the Green Dragon Legion's grain collection team, but if it weren't for the zombie horde—no, wait, if it weren't for the internal factional struggle of the Green Dragon Legion leading to them being wiped out by the zombie horde, and they had brought Zero Zero Four to Sky Ma Yu, would we have had the power to resist? How much damage do you think ordinary guns and artillery could cause to Zero Zero Four?"

Before obtaining the venom stock solution, Zhang Su felt helpless against Zero Zero Four, but now he could think of ways to counter it. People would die, but they could win, in a tragic way.

If a zombie horde appeared that couldn't be resisted, having to abandon the camp and go far away was acceptable, but if they were wiped out by other survivor forces, Zhang Su would never be reconciled.

Duan Wuhu frowned and pondered, his brain trying hard to find a way to deal with the situation Zhang Su mentioned, but thinking about it, it seemed that besides running away, there was only surrender...

He wasn't warlike, but to say he would raise his hands and surrender when others invaded was something he couldn't do. He still had basic backbone.

"Sigh, Brother Zhang, you say what this world will become in the future."

Duan Wuhu didn't answer Zhang Su's question, but from his reaction, it could be seen that he no longer insisted on his own ideas. Some viewpoints, whether recognized or not, would definitely happen. If you couldn't accept it, you had to force yourself to accept it.

"Some things will change, some things won't change. Just like we often said before, if you can't change the world, change yourself. Aren't we doing the same thing now?"

As the leader of Sky Ma Yu, Zhang Su couldn't even change Qincheng, let alone the world. At most, he had the ability to build the camp into the way he wanted.

"Right, I suddenly remembered Jack Ma's words before. I can't even change my mother, yet I want to change the world. How delusional, haha!"

"That's it, think less about useless things, live more transparently. Let's go, come with me to move the corpses. Our Dr. Fu is getting impatient."

Zhang Su extinguished the cigarette butt and patted Duan Wuhu on the shoulder. This physical education teacher's psychological state was extremely inconsistent with his body and appearance. Under his seemingly rugged appearance was a sentimental heart.

The two took the venom zombie's corpse from the car and pushed it to Cuilengxuan. These things were not easy to leave to others.

"Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Zhang. Brother Duan, hurry, put the corpse on the bed!"

Fu Weijun had been waiting for a long time. He had already moved Li Zhaohua's corpse to the balcony for natural freezing preservation, clearing space on the experimental bed for the venom zombie's corpse.

"Mr. Zhang, let me, let me... hey!"

Xie Yanshan was very observant and couldn't let Zhang Su do it himself. He hurriedly stepped forward and lifted the corpse onto the experimental bed with Duan Wuhu.

"This corpse..."

Fu Weijun turned his wheelchair to the side of the corpse, put on gloves, and poked it. The cold, stiff skin and muscles were a bit like dried meat. He patted the floating dust on the surface and said with a strange expression: "Mr. Zhang, sorry for the trouble. Where was this corpse found... it's been dead for a long time, right?"

"It should have been for a while." Zhang Su nodded, not explaining the specific origin of the venom zombie, and he didn't know when Tachibana Maiying had hung it up.

"It's very likely it died not long after the mutation. Such a situation..."

Fu Weijun looked at Zhang Su and hesitated: "Mr. Zhang, can you wait a moment, let me extract the venom stock solution first?"

"Fine, you guys do it."

Zhang Su came to hear the research results on Li Zhaohua's corpse. He didn't urge them even if they were anxious to dissect it. Anyway, there was nothing urgent, so he sat on the side and watched them work, which counted as deeply understanding the work content of the laboratory.

This look didn't matter, but it was very different from the situation he imagined. Unlike the precision instruments used for cutting in traditional laboratories, all relying on numerical control and robotic arms, here, various wild tools took turns, with skills but not many, as long as the purpose could be achieved.

After a burst of operation, it didn't take long, just four or five minutes, and that had to count the time to get tools. Fu Weijun and the others opened a hole in the back of the zombie's head. The force and direction were mastered very well, not a bit worse than their soldiers on the front line.

Immediately after, Fu Weijun put on gloves, carefully reached into the zombie's opened skull, and after a bit of groping, took out a container the size of a walnut, shining with luster like crystal. Of course, it didn't glow itself, but the cut surfaces were reflecting light, looking very dazzling.

"Tell me, could this be something naturally evolved?"

Zhang Su looked at the container and shook his head speechlessly.

Xie Yanshan frowned and nodded, saying in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhang, no need to doubt, this is definitely a creation, just don't know which civilization it came from. It's very mysterious."

"Sigh, what a pity..."

Fu Weijun didn't participate in the discussion, shaking the crystal container in his hand with a bitter face.

"This is... evaporated?"

Zhang Su saw at a glance that only about half of the viscous liquid remained in the container, and understood what Fu Weijun was regretting.

Fu Weijun nodded with regret: "Possibly... I guess it's because it no longer secretes this substance after death. Brother Duan, trouble, glass bottle."

"Here you go."

Duan Wuhu was already familiar with the work in the laboratory and soon handed a glass bottle of appropriate size to Fu Weijun.

"Well..." Fu Weijun said while carefully pouring the venom stock solution into the glass bottle: "We guessed wrong. It shouldn't be evaporation, but concentration."

"It is indeed more viscous than before!"

Zhang Su nodded seriously, watching Fu Weijun not scrape the mucus on the inner wall of the crystal container clean and very naturally put it aside, secretly finding it funny.

"Not only is the color darker, but the fluidity is also worse than before. Here, Mr. Zhang, be careful."

Fu Weijun tightened the small glass bottle. These were all found from the nail salon in the town and were very useful in the laboratory.

"Different concentrations, is there any explanation?"

Zhang Su gently turned the glass bottle. Without taking it out for comparison, he could clearly feel the difference between the two purples. The one in his hand was at least two shades darker.

"Perhaps in the case of the same amount, the explosive power will be greater. I can only make such a deduction for the time being... or, Dr. Xie, do you have any high opinions?"

Fu Weijun looked at Xie Yanshan. The contact time wasn't long, but the relationship between the two was very harmonious because the topics they discussed usually didn't involve personal interests, basically academic exchanges. Even if they argued, they had logical and theoretical support, not random spraying.

"Really sorry, I can only think of the most direct impact, or... will there be differences in the explosive reaction rate and trigger reaction conditions?"

Xie Yanshan didn't know where he got a pair of glasses, which were obviously very uncomfortable to wear. After taking off the glasses, he spoke in an uncertain tone.

He already knew the main role of the venom stock solution. The huge explosive power was comparable to a nuclear reaction of the same mass. This was a very dangerous substance, so he was very cautious when giving opinions.

"Like this..." Zhang Su put away the glass bottle and pointed to the crystal container in the corner, smiling: "Then trouble you two to study it, and then tell me the answer."

The small trick was seen through. Except for Duan Wuhu, who felt very embarrassed, Fu Weijun and Xie Yanshan had no discomfort, just nodding and agreeing, and laughing very happily.

No way, the management of dangerous goods was too strict, and they wanted to do research, so they could only think of their own ways.

"Dr. Fu, what did you want to tell me before?"

"Right, right, there's a discovery in the research on transformed zombies."

Mentioning this, Fu Weijun looked very excited and said: "This is a very key discovery! Brother Duan, trouble you to watch at the door."

Zhang Su raised his eyebrows, but whenever Fu Weijun started to be cautious, there must be a major breakthrough. Even Xie Yanshan and Duan Wuhu had serious faces, which made him even more curious, but as a leader, he had to have basic composure and waited quietly.

Fu Weijun saw Duan Wuhu open the door to look left and right, ensuring no one was eavesdropping, and then said seriously: "Through the communication between me and Dr. Xie, plus the dissection of Li Zhaohua's corpse, we found that the zombie transformation liquid has the effect of killing zombie robots!"

"Killing zombie robots?"

Zhang Su didn't react for a while. When he came to his senses, his face was surprised, and he said: "Meaning, it can reverse zombies into humans? No... people who have completely turned into zombies are already dead. Is it blocking the replication of zombie robots in the human body?"
