In order to completely solve the zombie crisis, it is necessary to create a vaccine that allows humans not to be infected with the zombie virus and become zombies after being infected by zombies.

Whoever can develop a vaccine will go down in history, and Worthington is convinced.

Although Worthington's research direction is different from Wenming's Zombie Island Research Institute, the process is not important, what really matters is the result.

"He's just found a way to turn zombies into humans now, and the success rate is not high."

Worthington told the U.S. Secretary of State, who hurried to his lab, "And my research has been tested and proven to be able to keep orangutans from being infected by the zombie virus." ”

When he said this, Worthington was very emotional, because he felt that he was one step ahead of Wen Ming, and was about to become the one who replaced Wen Ming as the savior, becoming the greatest scientist of all time.

"So I need to do real human experimentation now."

The Secretary of State was also in a very good mood when he heard Worthington's report, although the White House had just brought back nearly a million zombies from Zombie Island, and had obtained a way to restore those zombies to humans from Wen Ming.

However, this does not mean that the contradiction between the White House and Wen Ming does not exist, on the contrary, just as Worthington hates Wen Ming to achieve research results again, the White House does not want Wen Ming's prestige to go further.

It is a political necessity to make Wen Ming an irreplaceable savior, but it is the attitude of the White House that Wen Ming must not be made an irreplaceable savior.

So the secretary of state was in a very good mood after hearing Worthington's report, but unlike the previous White House chief of staff, she had reached the peak of her life, and her background and ability limited the White House chief of staff to no further. And her background, ability, and ambition all make her want to go further, which leads him to have his own views and plans for everything.

The Secretary of State was happy in his heart, but his expression did not change, and he said calmly: "I need to remind you, Professor Worthington, that if Wen Ming has a 100% chance of success, we will not be able to fund your research on the same project again, because it is a waste and disrespectful to taxpayers and the American people as a whole." ”

If Wen Ming was an ordinary scientist, even if he was a genius and did not have his own strength, the Secretary of State would not have such worries. But Wen Ming's strong economic ability, as well as his global prestige and connections at the top of American political circles, make it impossible for Wen Ming to remain silent when it comes to his interests.

Worthington understood what the secretary of state meant, if Wen Ming had succeeded before he really succeeded. Then, Wen Ming will inevitably use the power of public opinion and politics, and even the influence of other countries, to use this matter as an excuse to put pressure on the White House.

I've succeeded, but you're still using taxpayer money to do research, isn't that a waste?

The vaccine to solve the zombie problem is not a weapon that needs to be mastered with all its might, and ordinary people will inevitably have opinions when they learn about the government's waste in resource allocation. In the United States, a country where demonstrations are common, Worthington can already foresee what the time will be.

Even if he succeeded, as long as he was one step late, his success would have no effect.

"Believe me, I'll succeed before him, as long as I meet my requirements for human experimentation."

Worthington's tone was very sincere, because this was his last chance, and after learning that Wen Ming was half successful, he took the risk of experimenting, successfully injecting several orangutans with the drug he had studied, and then using the zombie virus to infect the orangutans.

The results showed that orangutans could not be infected by the zombie virus. He wanted to conduct human experiments as soon as possible, but he did not have the right to do so, and after putting forward the idea of 'harming' all mankind, although he could re-conduct the experiment, some permissions needed to be approved.

The secretary of state was silent for a moment, and when Worthington wanted to ask again, he asked, "Are you sure those orangutans are not infected with the zombie virus?" ”

Worthington immediately replied, "I'm sure, and so do my researchers." Animals themselves have no resistance to the zombie virus, but because the zombie virus is transmitted through biting, or by the mutation of the deadly virus, rather than the air and water transmission, so after the outbreak of the zombie crisis, almost no animals are infected into zombies. ”

"Zombies don't bite animals, and after animals bite zombies, they won't get infected if they don't have oral diseases, and animals won't take drugs. Therefore, the only way to infect animals is to inject zombie viruses directly. ”

Worthington became more and more excited: "We injected the three orangutans with the 'vaccine', and after the 'vaccine' took effect, we injected them with the zombie virus. The results show that although the zombie virus successfully infects their bodies, it cannot affect their brains, and they do not lose their intelligence and ability to express and communicate like real zombies, which means that our vaccine is successful. ”

The secretary of state noticed the problem in the Worthington report and frowned and asked, "Are you saying that they were successfully infected with the zombie virus, but their brains were not affected?" ”

Worthington replied, "Yes, they still carry the zombie virus in their bodies, and if they bite a human or an animal, and the other person is not bitten to death, then those bitten creatures will become zombies." However, because the zombie virus cannot have an effect on their brains, or the effect on their brains, it is repaired by the vaccine we developed in the first place, so they will not bite the creatures. ”

"They're doing exactly the same as before."

The secretary of state understood, and asked, "Then how to solve the zombie virus on them?" If you just make them not know how to attack like zombies, then even if the human experiment is successful, humans will be infected with the zombie virus, and I think it's always bad to have a virus on your body. ”

Worthington hesitated for a moment before he said: "Wen Ming's research has successfully eliminated the zombie virus, but their research can't make normal people directly immune to the most important impact of the zombie virus. Therefore, if our vaccine can pass human experiments and be put into production as soon as possible, it will be one step ahead of him and become the most important part of solving the zombie problem. ”

And then ...... We can use the method of smelling to remove the zombie virus from the infected. ”

It was so troublesome, and it also required the use of Wenming's method, the secretary of state was a little dissatisfied and said: "If that's the case, then why don't we just wait for Wenming to develop a truly effective vaccine?" Instead, choose to use your half-finished approach? ”

Worthington was a little speechless for a moment, and only said after half a ring: "Many people can remember every US president, but how many people remember every US vice president?" In this process of solving the zombie crisis, our vaccine is the most important, and Wen Ming's research results are only auxiliary, so it is me, you, the White House, and the US government that succeed, not Wen Ming, the richest man in the world. ”

The Secretary of State wanted to say that she remembered every vice president of the United States, and even every secretary of state and secretary of defense......

But she knew very well that Worthington had a very good point.

As long as the Worthington vaccine is rolled out in advance, then even if someone uses the zombie virus to do things again, they will not let the humans infected with the zombie virus attack wantonly.

Zombies that don't attack won't create any danger.

And at that time, the whole world will remember them and be grateful to them, and will not pay attention to the follow-up treatment of the zombie virus.

"I'm giving you permission to conduct human experiments."

The Secretary of State finally gave an answer, and then said: "However, if Wen Ming succeeds before you, then you will have to stop all experiments as soon as possible, and moreover, you will have to clear most of the experimental data and records, do you understand what I mean?" ”

Worthington felt bitter in his heart, but still said, "I understand. ”
