Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 413 Little Stone and Little Ginseng

The box that He Shi'an asked Yu Liu to deliver was filled with all sorts of experimental data and tools. This box contained the base's newly developed compressed space technology, and the space inside was about the size of a small room.

The items were laid out neatly, clearly indicating that He Shi'an had prepared them well in advance.

Yu Liu sighed. It seemed this person had been reborn for quite some time, but she wondered why he had become like that in this life. However, that was someone else's business. Yu Liu's current task was to supervise Little Ginseng as he learned how to make vaccines from scratch.

The information is all here, including the experience accumulated by countless predecessors. As long as Xiao Renshen learns it and makes improvements on this basis, there is a good chance that a vaccine can be produced.

Having experienced betrayal and kidnapping, Little Ginseng now deeply loathes the apocalypse. He gradually realizes that people in peacetime are bound by laws, and many live their entire lives following the rules, never acting so unrestrainedly and committing all sorts of evil. Perhaps ending this apocalypse won't immediately restore these people to normalcy, but there's always hope. After so much chaos, no one wants it to continue.

He was so engrossed in his research that he neglected to eat or sleep. Apart from regularly going out to find experimental materials, he spent most of his time studying in the laboratory he had built for himself.

It's simply impossible for a novice to create miracles in such a short time that even top scientists cannot. Even if the little ginseng wasn't human, it still couldn't accomplish this.

So after reviewing the information again and memorizing about half of it, Little Ginseng opened one of the small boxes that He Shi'an had given him. This small box was inside a larger box, about the size of a backpack. Inside, it contained many tiny test tubes. The test tubes contained liquids of different colors.

This is a record of the scientists' research before his rebirth, created by He Shi'an based on his memories. At that time, scientists believed that as long as they could find the ginseng, they could develop a vaccine. Although the direction was still wrong, most of the detours had already been taken.

Only a little bit remains, which the little ginseng needs to explore bit by bit.

This period of time was quite long, long enough for Yu Liu's injuries to recover somewhat. She simply couldn't bear the boredom of accompanying them in the experiments, and would often sneak out.

Knowing that Yu Liu could now use many spells and could escape even if he couldn't defeat the enemy, Little Ginseng let him go out and have fun.

However, on this day, Yu Liu brought back some news after going out.

The base in S City has been breached.

This time, without Little Ginseng's selfless help, the number of casualties continued to rise, and a vaccine could not be developed. In addition, the level 5, no, now level 6 zombie king was pressing forward step by step. In the end, the S City base could not hold on, and the wall collapsed and everyone scattered.

The little ginseng's laboratory wasn't far from the S City base. Yu Liu learned of this from encountering the fleeing people. He Shi'an also died under gunfire before the base was destroyed.

Unable to develop a vaccine, more and more people died and were killed, eventually turning into zombies who, under the leadership of the Zombie King, attacked humans. Everyone in the base was under immense pressure, and the research institute they supported, unable to produce anything, became their outlet for venting their stress.

He Shi'an was thus pushed forward.

He passed away peacefully, perhaps knowing that his mission was complete, or perhaps he had already seen through the world.

He was shot in the head and died without pain.

Even so, it couldn't stop the destruction of the S City base.

The zombies have taken over the base. The level six zombie king has seized the territory and become king. He has developed intelligence and, for reasons unknown, has used the equipment within the base to announce to the world that he has declared himself king.

This is probably the most shocking news of the year.

A zombie, in this apocalypse, proclaims himself king.

But no one dared to object; his advancement speed was too fast, so fast that humans simply couldn't keep up. With no natural enemies, this zombie's life was utterly unrestrained.

Human life is becoming increasingly difficult.

Around this time, the only good news was that the vaccine for ginseng had been basically successfully developed.

After casually grabbing a zombie and injecting it with a pale blue liquid, the zombie suddenly lost the strength that had been supporting it and turned into a corpse. Little Ginseng then drew his conclusion.

The vaccine has been successfully developed.

People who have been completely transformed into zombies are actually dead; what truly controls them is the zombie virus. Therefore, after being injected with a zombie vaccine, they will turn into real corpses.

"Is...that all?"

Yu Liu looked at the five test tubes in the small box and asked.

"Hmm." Little Ginseng sorted and put everything away. "I can't find enough materials to mass-produce it. I think the zombie vaccine still needs to be developed by humans themselves. I will tell them the formula, and I can make the necessary contributions. So, we should move."

Emerging from the "home" covered in layers of vines, a vast expanse of ruins came into view. All the surrounding buildings and skyscrapers had been demolished and were scattered all over the ground. From here, one could see the towering city walls of the S City base in the distance, looking short like a biscuit.

After not leaving the house for more than ten days, the little ginseng is almost unfamiliar with its surroundings.

"Um... this was done a few days ago, when the zombie king suddenly went crazy and ordered his subordinates to do it."

Yu Liu watched from a distance as all the zombies with superpowers were mobilized and began unleashing their abilities at the towering buildings, blowing up a large area of ​​them.

Fortunately, the vines planted by the little ginseng were quite sturdy, and even while conducting experiments, his demonic power was gradually increasing, so it was fortunate that they were not broken.

"..."

Little Ginseng was speechless, wondering what was wrong with the zombie king that made him want to cause such a big fuss over these buildings.

"let's go."

After leaving the zombie king's territory, Yu Liu and Little Ginseng finally saw traces of humans.

They disguised themselves as humans again and stopped a car.

"What are you doing?! Don't you want to live?! There are no seats left on our bus, and no one will be kind enough to take you in. Get out of here!"

The car came to a close stop in front of the little ginseng. A head popped out from the passenger seat, raised its unruly eyebrows, and started cursing.

The little ginseng didn't waste any words with him. Over time, he naturally understood the principle that the strong rule, just like that zombie king, who was so powerful that no one dared to provoke him.

He raised his hand, and there it was, a flower, held in his palm. The flower's disc was as large as a plate, and its layers of petals looked very beautiful. The flower's center stood upright, trembling slightly. At first glance, it looked like an ornament.

"Hahaha... Oh my, what's wrong with you? I said a few words to you and you gave me flowers?" The man immediately burst into laughter, shrank back, and said something to the people in the car. The car then erupted in laughter.

The little ginseng didn't explain. With his other hand, he gently brushed the petals, and as if he had plucked them off, they fell from the flowers and floated in the air. An invisible wind then carried them towards the car.

The people inside the car were completely unaware and were still laughing loudly.

Petals drifted into the car through the open window, and then, as if a switch had been flipped, all the laughter stopped abruptly.

Those people watched helplessly as the slowly drifting petals, like sharp knives, covered them and gradually embedded themselves into the car's metal. Cutting the metal was as easy as slicing tofu.

It's hard to imagine that these are just soft petals.

The car's exterior remained unchanged, but its interior was like a hedgehog, riddled with petals. The petals, embedded in the metal, hung limply, failing to arouse any suspicion.

"We'd like to hitch a ride, is that convenient?"

Only then did the little ginseng slowly approach the car, gently tap the front of the car, and ask slowly and deliberately.

"Convenient, convenient, extremely convenient!!" The unruly man nodded and bowed, speaking in one breath without pausing, as if afraid that if he spoke too slowly, the petals would turn into sharp knives and pierce his body.

"Thank you. Could you please give us two empty seats?"

"Okay, okay, just a moment."

This is a seven-seater SUV, and there are indeed seven people inside. Just like the person said before, there were no empty seats. But such a big vehicle could easily fit more than a dozen people.

The people on the bus squeezed together and managed to clear a row of seats for three people, along with Yu Liu and Little Ginseng.

Yu Liu and Little Ginseng sat in spacious seats, while several people in front of them squeezed together, without a trace of complaint on their faces.

The little ginseng was very satisfied, and then Yu Liu gave him a hard knock.

He smiled ingratiatingly.

"...Um, how should I address you? Where are we headed?"

The atmosphere in the car was too stuffy. After a while, the person who had been talking to the little ginseng asked cautiously.

"Call me whatever you want. As for where we're going, let me ask you a question: which base among humanity is the most popular right now?"

Yu Liu glossed over the previous question, saying that they wouldn't be staying with this group for long, so there was no need to introduce them.

"Are you looking for a base to join?"

The other party was clearly surprised, never expecting that such a powerful superhuman would also seek refuge with the base.

You have to understand, the base is not what it used to be. It used to be a safe haven, but now it's a place where guillotines can be used to take lives.

Ever since the zombie king became king, for some reason, he's developed a fascination with human bases. He hides within them, but he also loves attacking them. He attacks whichever base is well-built; after all, bases can't be left unbuilt—how can they withstand the hordes of zombies roaming the mountains? But if a base is well-built, then all he can expect is the zombie king's army coming to besiege it.

The zombie king grew increasingly powerful, becoming unstoppable. In the end, the base faced only one fate: destruction. Once the base was destroyed, the humans it sheltered had no choice but to flee for their lives.

Moreover, most people die while trying to escape.

Therefore, many powerful superhumans have now chosen to become lone wolves. Although it is tough, it is still better than being surrounded and overwhelmed by zombies all over the mountains.

The zombie king's army is unmatched.

"So, under these circumstances, do you still want to go to the base?"

The people on the bus weren't truly cold-blooded; it's just that after the apocalypse, many people who stop buses have ill intentions, and there's always the possibility of them bringing along someone who could cause trouble, which is why they refused Little Ginseng. However, after witnessing Little Ginseng's power, these concerns disappeared. They then told him everything they needed to know.

"Being a lone wolf is the safest way. As long as you carefully avoid zombies, you can basically survive well."

"We understand your good intentions, but we must go to the base, because only a large base can meet our needs. We have important matters to attend to!"

Yu Liu said, seemingly jokingly.

"I see... Let me think..."

"I want to know about the kind of bases that are more popular with the people, the kind where the leaders are more considerate of the people, and the things that are more important."

No one in the car took Yu Liu's words seriously, but because of the intimidating power of the little ginseng, they still told the truth.

"After thinking it over, the only place that can meet your requirements is probably the B City base. It used to be the capital, and it's currently the most powerful base, as well as the base that prioritizes the people's interests. If it weren't for its distance from S City, it would probably be the first place to be conquered by the Zombie King. However, we're not far from that situation now."

"Oh, I see. Let's set our target there then. And where are you all headed?"

“We’re not going back to City B. We’re a roaming squad with our own base, but it’s too small and there aren’t many of us, so we won’t attract the zombie king’s attention.” The speaker was the driver, who hadn’t spoken until now. “I can take you to the road leading to City B, and then you can flag down another car and see if you can get a ride.”

"Okay, thank you."

That's it.

After the apocalypse, many zombies roamed the specially opened roads. Most of them were level one or two zombies. Level three zombies had some intelligence, and many of them went to join the zombie king. Some hid in the shadows and quietly foraged for food, and basically did not appear in the open.

These level one and two zombies are not very strong; a vehicle can simply run them over and kill a large number of them.

However, the roads were littered with zombie corpses, turning the once-flat roads into potholes, making the cars wobble and difficult to control.

Such road conditions were really not a good time to chat, so everyone gradually fell silent.

Upon arriving at the intersection the driver had indicated, Yu Liu and Xiao Renshen got out of the car.

There weren't many vehicles on the road, and they waited for nearly four hours before finally getting a car heading to City B, but it wasn't going in City B.
