Chapter 253 253 Meeting and fooling around
Zhao Lexi patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, my elder brother and Brother Gao have made all the arrangements. Just follow me when the time comes. We will definitely be able to return home safely."
An hour passed quickly and the convoy encountered the first checkpoint of the capital base. The guard was probably a former soldier. He carefully asked his superiors before opening the gate.
Then came the second, and the third, a total of five checkpoints before we saw the gate of the capital base.
Unlike the square wall of the Beicang Base, the wall of the Capital Base was built in the shape of an octopus.
The circle at the center is a human settlement, covering an area of more than 40 square kilometers, with more than two million survivors living there. Eight legs, about ten meters wide and a kilometer long, extend from the eight directions of the circle. The area between these eight legs is also surrounded by walls from the outside world, but not as high as the outer wall of the circle. Once in danger, these areas will be abandoned immediately, and the zombies will be led into the middle of the eight legs for concentrated elimination.
At this moment, when there is no danger, the eight pieces of land gathered countless survivors who were unable to enter the city, and could barely be considered orderly.
The two plots of land in the south and north were used to accommodate the survivors who had just arrived at the base. Fully armed guards moved among the team to prevent anyone from suddenly changing.
Everyone entered the base.
On the way, Gao Jue gave Zhao Lexi a brief introduction to the situation of the base.
Half of the leadership group of the base is still the former national leadership group, a total of five people, this time Liu Wanli invited him and Professor Yuan to participate in the event, it was Deputy Base Director Li Jun who was in charge of scientific research, he was promoted after the end of the world. Li Jun and Professor Wang were classmates, so even if they had never met Professor Yuan, the two were familiar with each other.
Originally, Professor Yuan wanted to invite Professor Wang to the Beicang Base, but because of Li Jun, Professor Wang refused, so Professor Yuan gave up. Unexpectedly, Li Jun directly invited Base Director Liu and Professor Wang, with a tough attitude that would not tolerate refusal.
Since it was not Liu Wanli who came, the only people who came to greet him this time were Li Jun's secretary Zhang Ding and Professor Wang.
Following behind them was the Zhao siblings’ uncle Yan Boyu.
This scene cannot be said to be taken seriously.
On the surface, Zhao Shiyun's identity is just Liu Wanli's designated successor, and he has not yet inherited the position of Chief of Beicang Base. It is reasonable for the deputy base chief's secretary to welcome him. In fact, the various survivor bases do not obey the dispatch of the capital base. His future status will be parallel to that of the capital base chief. Although the scale of the bases is different, there should at least be a deputy base chief to welcome him.
This was Li Jun's way of showing him his power.
This is also the attitude of the Capital Base. If Zhao Shiyun is not obedient enough, the successor to the Beicang Base can be replaced at any time.
Zhao Shiyun didn't care and just asked Zhao Lexi to follow Professor Yuan and protect him closely. As for Chengfeng, he followed Zhao Shiyun and passed on information at any time.
Gao Jue also followed Zhao Shiyun.
So, after entering the base, the group of people were divided into two teams. Zhao Shiyun, Gao Jue, and Yang Haoran took a part of the city defense forces to participate in the experience exchange of resisting the zombie siege, while Professor Yuan, Zhao Lexi, and Li Qiong took the remaining city defense forces to participate in academic exchanges.
On Zhao Lexi's side, on the way to the laboratory, Professor Wang kept talking about his research results. Professor Yuan listened carefully, but his expression became more and more confused.
Professor Wang sensed something was wrong: "Lao Yuan, what's your reaction? I took out all my treasures and shared them with you, but you didn't say a word and still have this expression on your face. Who are you looking down on?"
"I look down on anyone who says that!" Professor Yuan was not polite at all. "I gave you the formula for the potion for free, and after a whole winter, you only came up with this little thing. Has your brain thawed yet?"
Professor Wang was not convinced: "Why not? I have developed a second generation of evolutionary potions. After taking them, the energy gained by evolved people is twice that of the first generation. This is a big step forward in the history of human evolution! Why do you look down on my research results?"
"Then tell me, what are the raw materials for making the second-generation evolution potion? Are they as readily available as zombie energy crystals?"
"Old man, you want to blow me up? Humph, how can I not know what you are planning? Don't you just want to know what the raw materials are?"
Professor Wang whispered, "If you promise me that you will stay, I will tell you! I guarantee that the raw materials have been cultivated on a large scale. We can have as much as you want!"
Professor Yuan was exposed and said loudly, "What's the point of staying?"
Professor Wang stopped pretending and immediately counted on his fingers excitedly: "After all, the Capital Base is the former capital. There are many survivors and a large number of troops, so safety is guaranteed. The experimental equipment here is well preserved, both domestic and foreign. We have everything. We also have experimental subjects. We have a breeding farm and we have all kinds of evolved beasts. And more..."
Professor Yuan listened with an indifferent expression and did not express his opinion.
During the conversation, everyone entered the laboratory. Looking at the room full of experimental equipment, Li Qiong held her breath, her eyes full of amazement, as if she saw a room full of handsome guys.
Zhao Lexi couldn’t tell good from bad, but she could see that the scale of the equipment here seemed to be similar to that of Shi’an Company. However, under Gao Jue’s command at the time, a lot of them were smashed by her, so that this incident became the black history of the "Pajama Man".
Professor Wang stopped talking and let Professor Yuan look at it himself.
At this time, he noticed Zhao Lexi and asked Li Qiong: "Xiao Li, who is this girl? Old Yuan's new apprentice? She looks really smart and must be a good student."
Zhao Lexi looked over with a sharp gaze: Don’t mention studying, we can still chat for a while.
On the way here, everyone had already discussed Zhao Lexi's identity. Li Qiong smiled and explained, "Lexi is not the master's apprentice, but my apprentice, and Zhao Shiyun's biological sister. She followed us instead of her brother this time because she wanted to come here to learn."
"Oh, oh!" Professor Wang understood that he was a relative, but he still touched his pocket and took out a green date and handed it to her: "Little girl, this is for you, just consider it a gift from your uncle."
Green dates have energy flowing in them, so they are suitable as a meeting gift.
"Thank you, uncle-master." Zhao Lexi took it and put it in his pocket.
At this time, Professor Yuan walked around the laboratory and came back.
The boss of this laboratory is Professor Wang. The staff in the laboratory are very respectful to this professor who is as famous as their leader and has developed the evolutionary potion. They automatically make way to let Professor Yuan pass freely.
"Not bad, not bad!" Professor Yuan praised repeatedly.
Professor Wang said proudly, "I told you! The conditions there are too poor. My place is better. We have the best laboratory before the disaster! As long as you come, I guarantee that you can have the highest authority in this laboratory."
"So who of us has higher authority?"
