At the end of the world, being able to provide her with a courtyard and supplies, but only asking for one, Chen Ke felt that it was worth it. After all, the person who would be hurt was not her.
Therefore, although the words that Su Wan asked her to say were very strange, Chen Ke still nodded and agreed without thinking.
The next day, a message that Jiujiu was actually a zombie spread throughout the safe zone.
This message was not groundless. It also specifically stated that it heard that Jiujiu had once brought a person with no abilities out of a place full of zombies on foot.
Most people knew that it was impossible to walk out of the city without guns, ammunition, and a car, not to mention a place full of zombies. It was as difficult as ascending to the sky to bring a person with no abilities out.
Moreover, because the person brought back by Jiujiu was Li Qianxuan, there were rumors that Jiujiu was actually a high-level zombie and had already controlled Li Qianxuan through brainwashing. Even now, most of the higher-ups in the safe zone were under her control. As for the drug that Jiujiu was researching in the laboratory, it was actually not a cure for the zombie virus. In fact, it was an improved version of the zombie virus. Jiujiu's intention was to use this improved version of the virus to turn all humans into zombies and achieve her intention of controlling all humans.
Originally, the zombies were enough to make people feel panic. At this moment, when they heard that the thing that was originally an antidote had become a zombie virus, for a while, the people in the safe zone were in a panic.
And just at this time, someone discovered that the intelligence of the zombies had recovered a lot after the advancement, which caused a sensation in the safe zone.
The discussion that Jiujiu was a zombie was even more heated. Many people even said that if Jiujiu was not handed over, they would rush to the laboratory and kill Jiujiu.
In the beginning, Li Cheng really did not take these remarks to heart. He felt that rumors stopped with the wise. No one would believe such a false rumor.
However, it turned out that Li Cheng was at the bottom of the valley.
Originally, in one night, their home had become a place full of monsters, which made them feel fear. At this moment, when they heard that someone was going to turn them all into monsters, they thought that they would also become monsters. The people who were already frightened to death were already brave enough to not be scared to death.
Originally, when Li Cheng said that Jiujiu was researching an antidote, they almost treated Jiujiu as a savior. Now that someone said that Jiujiu was researching a zombie virus that would harm their lives, they would naturally choose the side that was more beneficial to them. For example, killing Jiujiu...
The rumors outside had a negative effect on Jiu Jiu, because the development of the antidote had reached a critical point.
Because of Steamed Bun, Jiujiu was able to analyze Li Wei's data very quickly. Steamed Bun quickly analyzed the data and calculated the composition of the antidote. The next step was for Jiujiu to turn Steamed Bun's results into reality.
Jiujiu very carefully turned the results into reality. The researchers who witnessed all of this looked at Jiujiu as if they were devout believers looking at their god. In their eyes, Jiujiu was the sun that gave life to all living things. She was an existence that they needed to look up to.
Moreover, because the antidote to the virus had reached a more critical period during this period of time, they had been staying in the laboratory like Jiujiu. They had not gone out at all, and they had no idea about the rumors outside.
In the beginning, Li Cheng could bear the rumors, but as time went by, he was affected. Li Qianxuan said that Jiujiu had saved him from a place full of zombies by herself. Li Cheng wasn't Li Qianxuan, so he didn't worship Jiujiu that much. Because of the rumors, he couldn't help but wonder if Jiujiu was really a zombie like the rumors said.
As the rumors about Jiujiu being a zombie spread more and more, Li Cheng couldn't sit still anymore. He went to the lab to find Jiujiu.
Li Cheng looked at Jiujiu, who had dark circles under her eyes because she hadn't slept for a few days. Li Cheng felt a little guilty, but he still asked, "How's the experiment going?"
Hearing Li Cheng ask about the result of the experiment, Jiujiu blinked and answered honestly, "The vaccine can be made in half a month at most. How's the effect? You can ask someone to catch a zombie and try it."
Hearing Jiujiu say to catch a zombie, Li Cheng was stunned. He asked blankly, "Catch a zombie for what?"
"Didn't I tell you? This vaccine can not only make ordinary people immune to the zombie virus, but also make zombies who have been infected return to normal. " Speaking of this, Jiujiu frowned slightly. She thought for a while and said, "But I can't guarantee that a zombie will retain his or her memories after he or she recovers."
When a human turned into a zombie, he or she would become a monster who had lost his or her mind. He or she would be like a monster who would choose people to eat. Usually, the first person to suffer was their family. Therefore, if they retained the memories of when they were zombies, it meant that they still remembered when they hurt their family members. There was nothing crueler than this.
What Jiujiu could think of, Li Cheng naturally could think of, and he was even more far-sighted than Jiujiu.
Such things were rare in the country, but it was common abroad. Many of the best soldiers in the army would choose to be mercenaries after they retired. Mercenaries made a lot of money, but most of them were seriously hurt emotionally when they were carrying out missions.
Emotional damage was not like physical damage. Physical damage could be seen and touched, and you knew how to heal it. However, emotional damage could not be seen or touched, and you could not heal it even if you wanted to.
Therefore, it might be easy to turn a zombie into a human, but it was extremely difficult to heal the psychological hurt.
Thinking of this, Li Cheng hesitated. After all, turning a zombie into a human was like having a bomb that could explode at any time. It was scary just thinking about it.
Li Cheng's excited expression also became hesitant.
Jiujiu was well aware of Li Cheng's hesitation, but she did not intend to point it out. She only looked at Li Chengwei and asked, "By the way, Uncle Li, what did you want to say to me just now?"
Jiujiu asked frankly, but it made Li Cheng feel more ashamed.
Jiujiu was working so hard in the lab that she forgot to eat and sleep. However, people outside kept saying that she was a zombie. Some people even said that they wanted to rush into the lab and kill her. If Jiujiu knew that those people she was busy with were looking at her like that, she would probably die of disappointment.
