Chapter 25.3

After Zhou Xu returned to the base, he started allowing the base research institute to study himself. It was because, in this world, he was the only one to be bitten by a zombie but not die or turn into one. Instead, a power emerged.

In the beginning, Xia Qingfeng was very opposed to Zhou Xu doing this. However, it was only after Zhou Xu explained that he would only supply his blood and some of his cells for the research, and that it wouldn’t harm his body at all that Xia Qingfeng approved it. Of course, even though he agreed, he still had a group of powers monitor the research institute.

Because he wanted to work together with the institute, Zhou Xu had no choice but to stay in the institute.

As each day passed, Xia Qingfeng didn’t dare to rashly disturb Zhou Xu and could only wait for him.

Two months later, Zhou Xu came out without any discomfort. He looked at Xia Qingfeng with a faint smile and said, “Handsome guy, I didn’t miss you.”

Xia Qingfeng grasped Zhou Xu and pulled him into his arms. Without Zhou Xu, for Xia Qingfeng, what was the difference between his daily life and living in hell?

Pushing Xia Qingfeng away, Zhou Xu said, “Did Yuan Ke ever come?”

“He didn’t. In addition, during the last zombie rebellion, Yuan Ke used a lot of energy to drive out all of the zombies. We should thank him for that.”

“Zombie rebellion?”

Xia Qingfeng nodded his head and said, “Tens of thousands of zombies altogether besieged the base. If it wasn’t for Yuan Ke, the base might’ve already been done for.”

Zhou Xu breathed a sigh of relief. Talking with Yuan Ke about the conditions really had been worth it. Otherwise, they and all the people here would’ve already been dead.

“Zhou Xu, did you find get any results from the research?” Xia Qingfeng asked.

“There wasn’t any results on turning a zombie back into a human, but we did find a way to rapidly increase the strength of powers without harming their body. There’s only one bad point.”

“What point?”

“It’s necessary to use my blood to act as the primer, or else, the drugs I produced from the research can’t be used at all.”

“Use your blood as the primer? You can’t!” Xia Qingfeng immediately objected. Zhou Xu smiled slightly. It seemed that this stupid person truly liked him.

“The drug is already done, so it’s alright now.”

“What?”

“Did you forget that I have a healing power?”

“No matter what, you’re not allowed to give out your blood in the future.”

Zhou Xu licked Xia Qingfeng’s earlobe and said, “Ok.”

However, Zhou Xu actually lied. Because, in order for the drug to work, it was necessary to draw fresh blood from Zhou Xu or else it wouldn’t be useful at all. In addition, the researchers also discovered that there was something in Zhou Xu’s blood that they couldn’t figure out. They simply didn’t know where to start researching from.

Zhou Xu had been an excellent doctor and a scientific researcher in previous worlds, so when he looked at those cell diagrams, he realized right away that it was an antibody. If it could be extracted, then it was possible that his promise with Yuan Ke could be achieved.

Under the confusion of the researchers, Zhou Xu took out a huge piece of white paper and began to draw something. At first, it wasn’t clear to the researchers. The more they looked at it, the more they didn’t understand what Zhou Xu was trying to do.

But when Zhou Xu was almost done writing, filling up the big piece of paper, they understood and got excited. Some people even began to silently shed tears. Because, if Zhou Xu’s idea could actually be achieved, there was a possibility that family members of theirs that had turned into zombies could be saved.

After adding a customary dot after the last word, Zhou Xu put down his pen, stood up straight, pinched his sore neck, and said, “According to this research method, you will need to find me directly, never mind Xia Qingfeng. In addition, with regards to the drug to increase the strength of powers, I will come the day after tomorrow to donate blood. When that moment comes, you will make it right then and there, and then immediately distribute it. Don’t mind the group of guards sent by Xia Qingfeng. Did you hear all of that?”

Several of the researchers had red eyes because they thoroughly understood that, even if Zhou Xu had a power, drawing a huge amount of blood from his body in one go was still dangerous for him.

“Don’t give me that. If you really feel guilty, don’t let the plan go wrong. My life is my own responsibility.”

After Zhou Xu finished saying this sentence, he left the institute. During the two months of research, he found that he really missed Xia Qingfeng very much.

Nipping Xia Qingfeng’s ear, Zhou Xu’s warm breath sprayed on his ear, “Are you ready, let’s do it.”

In an instant, a wicked fire surfaced in Xia Qingfeng’s lower abdomen and completely burned his reason clean in a flash.
