I failed again

After the meal, Jiang Ruoyuan was very tactful and found an excuse to take Bai Ci away. Chu Yunze admired Jiang Ruoyuan's action very much and thought, this guy is finally useful.

"Commander, let's go to the training ground now?" Chu Yunze looked at Feng Linxi and asked with a smile.

"Exercising right after a meal is bad for your stomach." Feng Linxi said.

"Let's take a walk together?" Chu Yunze said, and took Feng Linxi's hand and walked out. "Come on, Commander, take your boyfriend around the base."

There are no entertainment venues in the base, only areas with strict divisions of work content. Feng Linxi took Chu Yunze through each area and explained to Chu Yunze the function of each area.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the entrance of the research institute.

"Can we go in and take a look?" Chu Yunze looked at the heavily guarded research institute in front of him and asked Feng Linxi, "This is my first time seeing a research institute, and I'm a little curious."

"Okay." Feng Linxi said.

The two men walked over, and the guard saw Feng Linxi and saluted him, "Hello, Commander."

Feng Linxi said to them, "Register. I'll take Yunze in to have a look."

The two of them registered before going in.

"The research institute is divided into two areas. The front area is where researchers rest, and the back area is where various laboratories and test sites are located." Feng Linxi introduced to Chu Yunze as they walked. "Although it is lunch time now, most researchers don't rest. They basically go back to the laboratory after a quick meal."

In order to save time, some researchers even ask their assistants to deliver meals directly to them in the laboratory so that they can eat while watching the experiments.

The psychics are killing zombies in the front and defending the base; while the researchers are conducting research day and night in the rear. Their research results not only enhance the strength of the psychics, but also strengthen the base.

"Although they don't have powerful superpowers, they are also very powerful." Chu Yunze said, "They are also protecting the base in their own way."

"They are really amazing." Feng Linxi said, "We can only use our superpowers to kill zombies, but what they are researching can completely eliminate zombies and end the apocalypse."

What they need to do is to protect the researchers so that they can conduct their research with peace of mind.

"If the vaccine can really be developed, the position of humans in the fight against zombies will be completely reversed." Chu Yunze said, "I am really looking forward to that day."

"I'm looking forward to it too." Feng Linxi said.

All of humanity is looking forward to the advent of a vaccine, and this research institute carries all of humanity’s hopes.

Therefore, the researchers inside have turned into scientific research fanatics and conducted experimental research crazily.

They don't want to disappoint everyone's expectations of them, and they firmly believe that they can develop a vaccine and end the apocalypse.

Chu Yunze followed Feng Linxi and looked at the laboratories on both sides of the aisle.

The laboratories are all decorated with transparent glass, and Chu Yunze can easily see the layout and research content of each laboratory.

He saw the level 7 zombies they had captured not long ago; he saw the computers that were calculating at high speed; he saw the energy recovery agent that was being produced...

The two walked to the last laboratory.

In the laboratory, a young man in a white coat was doing an experiment while eating the food fed to him by the person next to him. The person standing next to the young man and feeding him was Xiao Ran.

Looking at Xiao Ran who was feeding the animals happily, Chu Yunze raised his eyebrows. It seemed that Xiao Ran was having a very happy time here.

Seeing Chu Yunze staring at Xiao Ran, Feng Linxi thought he was wondering why Xiao Ran wanted to feed that person, so he explained, "The researcher who is doing the experiment next to Xiao Ran is Academician Liang Rui, who is also the head of this institute."

When talking about Liang Rui, Feng Linxi's tone was full of respect. "Academician Liang Rui often worked day and night to conduct research. Xiao Ran tried to persuade him several times but he didn't listen. Later, Xiao Ran simply stopped persuading him. When it was time for lunch, he would go to get a box lunch and return to the laboratory to feed Academician Liang Rui. When it was time to rest at night, he would take Academician Liang Rui home to rest if he didn't listen to his advice."

"It's a good thing that Xiao Ran is here. Otherwise, with Academician Liang Rui's situation, he would have passed away before the vaccine was developed." Feng Linxi said, "Sometimes when Xiao Ran is not here, Academician Liang Rui basically stays in the laboratory all night without rest."

"Can't other people be persuaded?" Chu Yunze asked curiously.

"Every time we tried to persuade him, he was just brushed off. The other researchers were not as senior as Academician Liang Rui, so they didn't dare to take him back to rest. They could only watch him stay in the laboratory after they had brushed off the advice." Feng Linxi said.

The researchers in this research institute are either students of Liang Rui, but students of his students. They dare not do anything to a person of this master-level. They can only persuade him, but the other party will not listen, leaving them helpless.

There is no way. Although Liang Rui is young, he is very talented. He was admitted to the National Academy of Sciences at the age of twelve. At the age of twenty-five, he was awarded the title of academician. Now he is only thirty years old.

It is true that he is young but of high seniority.

There are still many people in the research institute who are a few years older than him and have to call him teacher, not to mention those who are younger than him, who basically have to call him grandmaster.

"So, the entire institute is staffed by him." Chu Yunze said with a smile.

"You can say that." Feng Linxi said.

These people are rare talents, and we have to rely on them to end the apocalypse.

"But I have a question." Chu Yunze said.

"What's the problem?" Feng Linxi looked at Chu Yunze and asked puzzledly.

"Why did Xiao Ran dare to take Academician Liang Rui back to rest? Didn't Academician Liang Rui resist?" Chu Yunze said.

Although he had known about what happened between Xiao Ran and Liang Rui for a long time, he had just entered the base and was still unaware of many things in the base, not to mention such a secretive matter between Xiao Ran and Liang Rui.

"They are a couple, but not many people know about this." Feng Linxi said, "Currently, less than a handful of people know about this. They all think that Xiao Ran is just a guard who has a good relationship with Academician Liang Rui and is deeply trusted. That's why they dared to take him back to rest."

"As for why Academician Liang Rui did not resist, the answer is that it would be useless even if he resisted. Academician Liang Rui did not awaken any special abilities. He was just an ordinary person who was powerless. In fact, because he stayed in the research institute for many years, did not exercise, and had an irregular diet, Academician Liang Rui's body was weaker than that of an ordinary person. He would not be able to resist even if he resisted."

Chu Yunze nodded and said, "I see. If you can't resist, just lie down. That's pretty smart. But I didn't expect that these two people are actually a couple. I'm a little surprised."

At this time in the laboratory, Xiao Ran finished feeding the children, packed up the lunch boxes and was about to go out to throw away the garbage. When he turned around, he saw two people standing outside the laboratory.

Xiao Ran glanced at Liang Rui, who was concentrating on the experiment and didn't notice the two people standing outside, and walked out lightly.

"Commander, Yunze, why did you two come here suddenly? Are you here to see the latest research progress?" Xiao Ran greeted.

"No, I was just walking around after dinner to digest the food." Feng Linxi replied, "When we got to the research institute, Yunze said he was curious, so I brought him in to take a look."

Hearing this, Xiao Ran gave Chu Yunze a thumbs up in his heart. That was awesome. Not only did he enter the research institute openly, but he also let the commander act as a tour guide to introduce the research institute. That was awesome. He was worthy of being His Majesty.

I just wonder if Feng Linxi, who has been kept in the dark, will go crazy when he finds out the truth.

However, this has nothing to do with him, His Majesty will handle it.

"I see..." Before Xiao Ran could say anything, he heard Chu Feng Linxi say, "From what you said, has the research institute come up with something new recently?"

"There's nothing new, but there is a new discovery." Xiao Ran glanced at Chu Yunze and said, "Liang Rui discovered that the zombie we captured a few days ago was forcibly raised to level seven by a force of energy in a short period of time."
