Volume 1 Section 94 Jealousy

Su Hao didn't finish his words. But Lin Yu had already understood the meaning. "Who do you think you are?" The dislocated shoulders made it impossible for Lin Yu to struggle, and he muttered, his eyes full of confusion.

In a moment, a huge fire erupted from the far end of the street, awakening him from his confused thoughts. Lin Yu's face quickly turned red, and the fear in his eyes was dominated by ferocity and arrogance. He viciously repeated the question: "You, who do you think you are?"

Su Hao didn't answer, just glanced at him lightly and said, "Your brother and companions are dead." So, you don't have to live. ”

Kunming is too far from the north.

There is not good traffic right now, and there are many unforeseen dangers along the way.

Lin Yu's identity is important, maybe he can use him to exchange something from Lin Feihu's hands. But no one can guarantee that the benefits of this transaction will outweigh the losses suffered on the way back. Even if Lin Feihu agreed to the quid pro quo, he would definitely send a large number of armed men to follow the attack and retaliate frantically. Su Hao didn't want to do this kind of unsure thing. Lin Yu saw the death intent released in his eyes. He instinctively felt fear and involuntarily screamed.

"You, you dare! I want to, hmm...... Woohoo......"

Before Lin Yu finished speaking, his mouth was tightly covered by Lin Siwen, who was standing next to him, and the last words were deeply blocked in the depths of his throat.

The most sinister image that remained in his eyes was Lin Siwen with a sinister smile on his face, and the knife that flickered with cold light and cut straight at his throat. On winter nights, it's hard to see the moon. High walls and power grids isolate the Academy of Sciences from a relatively independent world. Outside there was weedy dirt and scattered trees. Inside, there are flat plots of concrete, as well as various unknown traps that are difficult for outsiders to detect. Six basement floors, one hundred and thirty-three research group laboratories. It is a large room with an area of more than several hundred square meters. Along the wall, a sturdy steel grille separates six small spaces of about 10 square meters. In each small room, there are three or five zombies. Some of the zombies' skin had turned red, and some of their heads had grown extremely strange bumps. They sit or stand, occasionally grabbing the railing and slamming their heads hard. Sometimes they open their mouths wide and gnaw their teeth at metal obstacles...... These aimless movements are recorded by the automatic monitoring probe hanging on the roof and permanently recorded in the computer room computer. Each steel grid has a diameter of 15 centimeters. They are specially designed to be incredibly strong. Even a first-order enhancer can't destroy it in a short period of time, let alone an ordinary zombie. A total of four steel grilles like this are set up. Outside the steel grille, there is a mirror wall that can be viewed from the inside out. This thing is no weaker than the previous obstacles. Sometimes, researchers tend to turn on the transparency effect to let the zombies see themselves. This temptation of being close to each other without having any chance of contact will only make the hungry zombies even more irritable and crazy. However, for some research projects, appropriate stimulation is necessary to add certain key data to the computer data.

Liu Yi stood in front of the operating table in a light blue jumpsuit and slashed the back of a zombie with a scalpel. Through the goggles, you can see that Liu Yi has a pair of eyes that are often squinted. This is his habitual movement, and he has not been able to change it for more than forty years. Like most people engaged in scientific research, Liu Yi is very thin and has already lost his head. The little hair that is left grows down the sides of the forehead, forming the so-called "Mediterranean" hairstyle. In addition to Liu Yi, there were two other assistants in the room. The sharp scalpel cuts the musculature of the zombie's hind buttocks. Along the waistline, the blades descend in order, quickly slicing through the fat, fleshy part, revealing a slightly gray spine. The structure of the human body emerged very clearly in Liu Yi's mind. He memorized the position and direction of each bone, and was familiar with the gaps between muscles and ligaments. The scalpel moves smoothly along these invisible lines without the slightest obstruction. A piece of rotting, blackened intestines was squeezed out from beneath the corpse. Liu Yi's eyes showed a look of disgust and hatred. Although he was wearing a mask, he always felt a peculiar smell of disinfectant mixed with deodorant. These damn zombies stink. I really don't understand, how on earth do they manage to live and rot at the same time? That disgusting smell was so strong that no amount of deodorant could hide it, almost suffocating.

An assistant saw the paleness on Liu Yi's face. He quickly walked over, took off Liu Yi's medical mask, and replaced it with an oxygen mask that had been prepared for a long time. A large number of oxygen molecules woke up his cloudy mind, Liu Yi exhaled a long breath, and his complexion gradually returned to ruddy. Soon, at the top of the zombie's tail vertebrae, he found the rare substance that lit up with silver.

Liu Yi stared at the silver bone for nearly two minutes. He placed the scalpel into the white porcelain plate next to him, removed the oxygen mask, and turned to leave the room. The rest of the work will be done by assistants. Walking out of the laboratory, Liu Yi threw the blood-stained rubber gloves into the garbage bag and carefully washed his hands in the sink. Then he pushed open the door of the lounge, made a cup of coffee, and sat down on the chair very tired. This is already the thirty-seventh zombie he has dissected. On the tail vertebrae, without exception, the silver bone was found. It was so small, no more than two milligrams at most. Mixed in with a pair of rotting flesh, it would be impossible to detect it without a particularly pointed attention.

Liu Yi didn't understand - where did Wang Qinian, the old fat man, get the news, and know that there was such a thing in the chalk of the corpse? Silver Bone ...... It sounds really weird. But it's also in line with its appearance. Its appearance immediately plunged the entire Academy of Sciences into a state of frenzy. All researchers were amazed at its composition. The strengthening of human bone and the central nervous system by the silver bone shocked the members of the project. On the premise of immunity to the virus, it can be taken directly and dissolved in the stomach into a substance that the cells can accept. Its effectiveness is strong, even more than the sK-type bone strengthening agent that the Americans have just developed.

SK……

Thinking of these two letters, Liu Yi couldn't help but feel irritated.

Liu Yi is an A2 level researcher.

He had always wanted to facilitate a collaboration between Pfizer and his research group. The new project is also a bone strengthener. Liu Yi scoffed at the sK successfully developed by the Americansβ€”β€”β€”β€” he is an authority in this regard, and he is absolutely sure that the efficacy of the new drug exceeds 80% of the sK. The reason why the project was requested to be jointly developed with Pfizer was to expand its visibility. For himself, to be precise.

Countries are working to develop higher-grade fortified agents. However, judging from the first-order strengthening drugs that have been finalized and are the most used, the biggest defect is the mismatch between the bone mass and muscle strength of the injector. This issue has attracted the attention of researchers from all over the world. Many people are looking for ways to strengthen the bones and nervous system – the French intend to inject drugs to form a new bone framework inside the human body. The Japanese want to make bones metal. The Americans were even crazier: they experimented directly on soldiers who had been injected with first-order enhancement potions. By anesthetizing nerves and muscle dissections, the original bone was removed from the subject's chalk and replaced with a high-strength alloy. Nine cases were carried out before and after this terrible experiment. Of these, five died due to the rejection of metal substances by their cells. Two people have a central nervous system disorder that leads to mental disorders. The last two survived the adaptation period and were sent to the battlefield as successful examples. After killing dozens of zombies, they suddenly turned their guns and began to shoot at their own people...... No one knows what's wrong? Perhaps it is the proliferation of cells that triggers the collapse of the mind, or it may be the disturbance of the thinking nodes caused by the reset of the nervous system.

Liu Yi has unique insights in bone research. He has secretly developed a new bone-strengthening potion. Even without Pfizer's joint R&D project, he could have come up with a good enough finished product. Liu Yi wants to replace Wang Qinian. He has always believed that β€”β€”β€”β€” power and identity are the most direct symbols of research results. Although this world is full of damned zombies, the most basic values are still there. Liu Yi is sure that as long as he publishes his research results, the military will definitely stand on his side, and other countries will also give him support because of the huge demand for medicines. Before the advent of similar elixirs with stronger effects, self-developed elixirs were equivalent to gold. Ousting Wang Qinian, that old bastard, from power is a breeze. Even, you can get the Night Shadow. That glamorous woman is so special. The first time he saw her, Liu Yi only felt that his heart was firmly grasped by an invisible hand, and he could barely breathe. That horrible feeling of choking full of pleasure addicted him like a drug. Liu Yi could only secretly peek at the night shadow, quietly took a photo, and when he was alone, he swore in the face of the woman in the photo - Lao Tzu would kill Wang Qinian! Lao Tzu wants to climb to the pinnacle of power and life! Lao Tzu wants to marry you! Men who are immersed in love are crazy. A biological scientist who fantasizes about unrealistic love is a madman who is more dangerous than any madman. Liu Yi has been brewing an operational plan for his research results. The need for bone strengthening has become the key for countries to defeat zombies and win this biological war. No one could say no to this new agent. Not to mention the position of the head of an academy plus a woman, even if he asks for more, Liu Yi is sure that he can get it. Now, a small silver bone has shattered all Liu Yi's dreams. Pull him from the clouds into hell once and for all. He didn't believe it was true. He frantically dissected every zombie, trying to prove from the rotting and stinking flesh that the Silver Bone was an occasional thing. Reality shattered his stubbornness again and again, laughed at his stubbornness, sobered him up in astonishment and confusion, and then fell into arrogance again.

As a senior "A" researcher, Liu Yi certainly has the right to access the notes sent by Su Hao. Many of these ideas made him refreshed, and while he was jealous and envious, he also remembered the damned young man surnamed Su.

Liu Yi knew very well - even if there was no Su Hao, others would also find the silver bone. This thing is inside the chalk of the zombie's body, and it is only a matter of time before it is discovered. But why did ...... "Discoverer", the dazzling laurel crown, was not worn on my head? It's not fair! Thinking of this, Liu Yi drank the coffee in the cup in one gulp, and his eyes gradually became cold and gloomy.

β€˜β€¦β€¦

People who are in the same building always have completely different minds.

Wang Qinian sat in a baroque chair and watched the fire burning in the fireplace. The high-flying flames make a "Bibi peeling" sound, exuding a comforting warmth. Nightshade stood behind the fat dean, reading a document in a cold tone that didn't change.

"Experiments have proved that the silver bone has a significant strengthening effect on the bone and nerve center. No known agent can match. The substance has no side effects on the human body, and there is a metabolic relationship between the solidification factor and the cell. This phenomenon is difficult to explain with biological theories. We try to verify this with genetic taxonomy. As for the chalk of the corpse, what will appear like silver bones...... Maybe it's because they're human, but they've been modified by the virus to be a different kind of organism. But at the root of it, they all have the same genes and cell tissue. The title page of the document is marked with the inscription "L06". Documents of the same format, but with different digital labels, are piled up in thick piles on the desk, and the number is as high as hundreds. After learning from Su Hao's remote communication that there was such a thing as silver bones, Wang Qinian immediately mobilized the strength of the whole hospital to conduct a comprehensive dissection of the thousands of zombies raised by the Academy of Sciences.

The result is exactly the same as the "guess" mentioned by Su Hao in the report - each zombie has silver bones in its chalk.

The importance of this thing has been proven by hundreds of research groups.

Many fanatical researchers even swallowed the Silver Bone and felt the magical change from a semi-strong person to a true strong person. Many people bluntly say: "Musculoskeletal changes feel like taking drugs......

The entire Academy of Sciences was jubilant, with large computer databases flooded with complex algorithms, and people were searching for more secrets about the Silver Bone and what could be used in all sorts of ways.

Many researchers assert that this is one of the greatest discoveries in human biology and history. Its significance is no less than the existence of milestones such as penicillin, nuclear bombs, and electric energy. This is related to the strengthening of the human group and the decisive factor in the victory or defeat of the war against zombies. There is no doubt that Su Hao belongs to the successful ones. To outsiders, he was just a lucky manβ€”β€”β€”β€” the silver bones were already in the chalk of the corpses, and anyone could have found such a thing. But just as Marie Curie discovered radium and Franklin came into contact with electricity, no one can replace the importance of the "first discoverer". Although the mysterious substance is there, it has not changed its position for billions of years, and millions of people have passed by it, and they will eventually remain unburied, forever silent in ignorance.

"This kid is fucking lucky."

Wang Qinian's words were also filled with envy and jealousy, but more with relief and emotion: "I am also engaged in similar research, and I have personally dissected at least 20 zombies. I have repeatedly missed such an important thing, but he has found it. Grandma's, it's really unfair. A smile flashed in Nightshade's cold eyes. Of course, she could hear Wang Qinian complaining - just like two children competing for candy, the one who didn't grab it was very red-eyed, and naturally there would be jealousy and the like. This is the primitive reaction of human beings, and the fat dean is not exempt from vulgarity. Of course, this situation does not necessarily mean that it will go badly. There is competition, there is motivation

"Give him another level."

Wang Qinian took his eyes off the fire, picked up the cup on the coffee table and took a sip. The next words were a bit of self-talk: "I'm already a C3-level researcher at such a young age, and I haven't seen such a perverted guy for many years." Thinking about it now, it was indeed a mistake to give him a first-order strengthening potion at that time. Combined with the silver bone, the injector's strength is almost doubled. Ordinary zombies are no match for this enhanced human at all. The boy had a gun, he had men under him, and I had supplies for him from time to time...... Tut-tut! What do you want, there are a lot of beautiful girls around. This is simply the life of the Emperor of the Earth. Why do I have to stay in the Academy and deal with all this boring and damn data every day? Perhaps, I should learn from him to hug left and right." The last few sentences are obviously inspired by feelings. However, the old fat man, who said it well, apparently forgot for a few seconds that there was a person like Night Shadow by his side.

When his thinking nerves quickly woke up from his fantasy and returned to reality, he quickly closed his mouth and hummed and chirped, trying to use erotic tunes such as "brother loves sister sister sister loves brother ......" to get by. Nightshadow didn't seem to notice Wang Qinian's abnormality. She still had a cold face, and used her pen to "brush" the document book to record the instructions just given by the fat dean. The fat man who had a false alarm immediately returned to normal. He frowned slightly. At this moment, Wang Qinian's appearance is simply a wise sage. This incomparably rapid process of changing his appearance did not affect the normal thinking in his mind in the slightest. After a pause of less than a second, the old fat man spoke again.

"Make a copy of all research materials on the Silver Bone. Sent to the military and the United Nations Biological Research Agency, respectively. Nightshade stopped the pen in his hand and looked up, the expression on his face still cold, but his eyes showed confusion and surprise.

"Silver bones are natural beings. The military and other countries are conducting research on zombies. It's only a matter of time before this kind of thing is discovered. Unlike elements or other non-corporeal substances, it requires a specific environment and specialized equipment to manifest. Even ordinary people, as long as they have luck and chance, they can also find silver bones in the chalk of the corpse. Rather than having the honor of "First Discoverer" taken away from someone else, it would be better to be happy and make it public now. Anyway, this world is full of damn mutated creatures. Kill more, there is only good and no harm. ”
