Quick Wear: The Law of Salvation of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 4 Walking Human Serum in the Apocalypse 3

"948, whoever wants to save the world can do it! I can't do it anyway. You should find someone else. I can't solve this deadlock."

After saying that, Xie Qi lay down on the bed, crossed his hands over his chest, closed his eyes, and looked peaceful, as if he was ready to set off at any time.

Faced with this situation, the system remained calm and responded, "Host, please don't give up so quickly. In fact, you haven't yet received the original owner's memories."

Xie Qi opened his eyes slightly when he heard this, revealing a hint of doubt: "So what? Can this change anything?"

The system patiently explained, "Of course you can. This system has said that the body I've found for you will definitely be beneficial for you to complete your mission. As for how to do it, it's up to you, the host, to choose."

Hearing this, Xie Qi's expression finally changed slightly. After a moment of silence, he said, "Okay, accept the memory first."

As soon as he finished speaking, another memory flooded into his mind.

The original owner's name was the same as his, also called Xie Qi. Whether in the previous life or this life, he was completely a cannon fodder in the story.

He was kidnapped at the age of nine. To avoid detection by police dogs, the kidnappers stuffed the young original owner into a foul-smelling garbage truck. He stayed there for three days, and his parents died trying to save him.

This sudden change caused the original owner to suffer from a serious mental illness. He was extremely sensitive to any dirt, as if it touched the scars deep inside him, causing psychological trauma.

Since then, Xie Qi has become silent and taciturn, full of fear and vigilance towards the world around him. He has always depended on his grandfather for survival.

And his grandfather is Professor Xie.

In his previous life, the original owner, as Professor Xie's only grandson, naturally followed the male protagonist to the base. However, on their way back to the base, the original owner unfortunately died.

After all, for a patient with severe mysophobia or even a mental illness, it is harder than climbing to the sky to find a chance of survival in this doomsday-like harsh environment.

What's more, the original owner knew very well that her existence would add endless burden to her grandfather.

He didn't want to see his grandfather being controlled by others because of him, becoming a tool manipulated and used by those with ulterior motives, or becoming a puppet controlled by some ambitious person.

He just wanted his grandfather to be able to conduct research without any burden, so he had no intention of reaching the base alive.

So when he found out that the male protagonist was in danger and his life was hanging by a thread in order to protect them, the original owner stepped forward without hesitation and used his flesh and blood to block the zombies' attack for the male protagonist.

He eventually died from severe injuries and infection.

However, in this life, the death of the original body seemed ordinary compared to the previous life, because he died of starvation.

Professor Xie was depressed after being dismissed, but when he saw his grandson, who was worried about him, his gloom instantly dispelled. He realized that he was not alone and had family members who needed support and protection. He must not sink into despair.

Although everyone around him was full of doubts about him, Professor Xie did not lose heart. He firmly believed that as long as he persisted in his research, he would be able to find conclusive evidence to prove his innocence.

Therefore, Professor Xie resolutely decided to continue his previous research work at home. He was well aware of the huge threat posed by this mysterious virus and that if it was not stopped, the consequences would be disastrous.

With a sense of mission and responsibility, he devoted himself to this race against time.

From then on, Professor Xie toiled tirelessly on his research, pouring endless effort into every piece of experimental data and every analysis and reasoning.

As time passed, doomsday finally arrived, unprepared for the moment. A massive meteorite plummeted from the sky! This mysterious meteorite seemed to hold some unknown power, instantly giving the previously calm virus new life, making it incredibly agitated and excited.

On the day of the end of the world, some people will experience a terrible ordeal, first with a sudden high fever, followed by various strange symptoms in the body.

Eventually, they either mutate into cruel, merciless, and irrational zombies, or gain superpowers after painful struggles and transform into superpowers with special abilities.

Some people have no reaction at all and are called ordinary people.

Professor Xie was just an ordinary person. On the very night of the apocalypse, after countless days and nights of research, only one cytokine in his test kit survived. Finally, he developed the only virus serum.

Although at this moment, even he himself could not be sure whether this serum could really be effective against this sudden disaster.

But after the meteorite fell, facing those viruses whose activity had doubled wildly, Professor Xie was surprised to find that those viruses that had received serum injections remained relatively stable.

However, injecting the serum into the already active virus had no effect at all.

Just as Professor Xie was about to pass this important information to his superiors, he suddenly felt a strong sense of unease. He rushed out of the basement without hesitation and ran towards his grandson's door.

Then they saw that the nanny who was hired to take care of the grandson had turned into a hideous zombie.

The zombie was desperately banging on the original owner's door, as if trying to break in. Professor Xie didn't have time to think too much. He quickly grabbed a tool that was convenient to him and pounced on the zombie without fear.

After a struggle, the zombie fell to the ground and stopped moving. However, Professor Xie's arm was unfortunately bitten by the zombie and blood flowed out.

Professor Xie, clutching his wound, pushed open the door and saw the original owner curled up in his quilt, his body trembling constantly and his emotions extremely unstable. Professor Xie felt so distressed that he had to inject the original owner with a sedative, hoping to calm him down and get a good night's sleep.

Professor Xie knew he would soon be infected and become like the nanny. Although he had a serum, it was ineffective against the already active virus. Even injecting himself wouldn't stop the mutation.

So at this desperate moment, Professor Xie made a difficult decision. He injected the only virus serum in his hand into the original owner's body.

He hoped that this potion would allow the original owner to live well and not be infected by the virus.

After doing all this, he resolutely chose to end his own life so as not to become a zombie that harms others.

When the original owner finally woke up from his deep sleep, he found that his grandfather was no longer around, leaving only a letter. The original owner wanted to follow his grandfather's instructions and live well until the arrival of rescuers.

However, a long time had passed since the end of the world, and still no one came to rescue. The original owner was unable to leave home alone due to his condition. In the end, due to the lack of food and external assistance for a long time, the original owner was ultimately unable to escape the disaster.

Tormented by loneliness and hunger, he died quietly in his apartment, leaving this world with endless regrets.
