Chapter 1651: Chapter 695 Bishop

“Is this the Zombie Virus Serum…”

Wang Tao carefully picked up a translucent potion, its liquid was a pale gold color. He could faintly sense a vibrant vitality from the potion.

“Yes, this is the Zombie Virus Serum!”

Qu Shilin’s voice trembled slightly.

Although she led the team to personally create it, she still felt a sense of unreality. After all, this is the antidote to the Zombie Virus!

At the outset of the outbreak, she was confidently certain that, no matter the virus, as long as she was given enough time, she would eventually be able to develop an antidote.

But as the apocalypse truly arrived, the zombies grew stronger, and her in-depth research into the Zombie Virus revealed her life may never see the antidote’s creation. Not just her, perhaps nobody in the world could create an antidote. By this time, the virus had mutated countless times, and their research could not catch up with the virus’s mutation speed.

Unless they could obtain the original Zombie Virus data, but at that time, the whole world fell in a short period, there were hardly any who managed to research the Zombie Virus, even if there was research, it couldn’t ensure detailed data was preserved, and even if it was preserved, the data might not be comprehensive, and even if comprehensive data existed, no one knew where it was… Ultimately, it was an impossible task.

Unexpectedly, Wang Tao arrived and brought a set of Ancestor Zombie Virus data. Although the data wasn’t comprehensive, it was indeed Ancestor Zombie Virus data, with this data, the task of creating a Zombie Virus antidote was no longer an “impossible event”, at least bringing a sliver of hope.

Ultimately, with Wang Tao’s help, she gradually gained substantial Ancestor Virus data, removing some repetitive and unusable parts, now only 20% was missing! Based on previous data patterns, it seemed just like a single data set was needed.

Qu Shilin is now fully prepared, only missing this last piece of Ancestor Virus research data, once obtained, she could confidently manufacture the Zombie Virus antidote!

But this last piece was the hardest, Wang Tao nearly searched the whole country but couldn’t find it. This left Qu Shilin feeling hopeless again. Previously, she could comfort herself with the thought that it was temporarily unavailable, now it was found but non-existent…

Fortunately, Wang Tao kept sending various things her way, keeping her occupied. Although no breakthrough was made in the Zombie Virus antidote, other research yielded significant results, revitalizing her spirit. Otherwise, she might have sunk into depression.

And now, Wang Tao acquired the last piece of Ancestor Virus data, after tests conducted by Qu Shilin and others, eliminating redundant information, perfectly filling the remaining 20%!

Qu Shilin suddenly felt as if she were dreaming, when she had already lost all hope, hope suddenly struck her squarely!

So she immediately gathered her team, in a non-stop, round-the-clock effort, they completed the Zombie Virus Serum in just one and a half days! Upon creation, she immediately summoned Wang Tao.

If it weren’t for Wang Tao, she wouldn’t have been able to create the Virus Serum, Wang Tao, the crucial contributor, must witness the appearance and effect of the first Zombie Virus Serum firsthand!

“Has it been tested yet?”

Wang Tao asked curiously.

Though he too was excited, not as intensely as Qu Shilin. He knew this was merely one of many difficulties, there were numerous troubles yet to be solved…

“Not yet, we’re just waiting for you! But I am very confident, this serum is 100% effective!”

Qu Shilin was very confident.

“What exactly is its effect?”

Wang Tao asked again.

This Zombie Virus Serum certainly wouldn’t directly revert zombies to humans, there must be some limits in its use.

As expected, and close to his thoughts, Qu Shilin explained:

“Simply put, if someone is infected with the virus but hasn’t yet turned into a zombie, no matter how long the virus has been dormant, once injected with the serum, they will recover in just a few seconds, leaving no aftereffects!”

“If someone infected with the Zombie Virus has turned into a zombie, but for less than seven days, they can still use the Zombie Virus Serum, though they won’t recover immediately, instead taking anywhere from an hour to a day. After recovery, there may be some slight aftereffects…”

“If someone infected with the Zombie Virus has turned into a zombie for over seven days, they are beyond saving, because they have lost humanity, becoming a new race named ‘zombie’…”

As she spoke, Qu Shilin remembered something, and continued:

“Oh, there’s another usage, which is injecting the serum in those not yet infected with the Zombie Virus in advance, granting them temporary virus antibodies, preventing any Zombie Virus infection for three days!”

After hearing Qu Shilin’s explanation, Wang Tao was somewhat impressed:

“Amazing! This is much better than I thought, I initially imagined it similar to an inhibitor, only usable before turning into zombies, didn’t expect even those who had transformed can be brought back! Although there may be aftereffects, compared to life, those minor aftereffects are nothing…”

“All thanks to you!” Qu Shilin remarked with emotion, “Moreover, this Zombie Virus Serum is just the beginning, once confirmed effective, our next task is developing the Zombie Virus Vaccine. That’s the truly remarkable thing! If the vaccine is successful, then those vaccinated will be immune to Zombie Virus for life, completely preventing future infection!”
