The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 1220 Zombie Stimulants, Human Tranquilizers

Are you all serious about what you're saying?

As the person involved, Kuang Miao was not sensitive to these things. He had never been exposed to such in-depth research before, and his understanding of zombies remained at a very superficial level.

Fu Weijun nodded solemnly and replied, "We are very serious. Based on what Chen Hanzhou and Mr. Zhang said, we are afraid we can no longer test you without any scruples."

After experiencing the insomnia incident, Fu Weijun became more composed, not because he had come to a realization, but because he had developed a sense of fear. Kuang Miao was not one of those prisoners of war who could be tormented at will.

Zhang Su was slightly surprised when he heard Fu Weijun's words. This was not like his usual level of awareness, but he was right.

"Until we figure out what supports the self-healing, it is indeed not appropriate to deliberately create trauma. You two are already good enough to have discovered the ability. Let him figure out the rest in the future."

After Zhang Su finished speaking, he looked at Kuang Miao and said, "Kuang, this ability is a lifeline in times of dire need, not a means to take unnecessary risks, understand?"

"I understand, Brother Su. Um... can I ask to train with you guys? Actually, my body has become a bit stronger than before."

Kuang Miao looked at Zhang Su expectantly.

Chen Hanzhou said from the side, "Brother Su, I've tested Miaozi. He can barely reach the level of the elite legion. Let him give it a try. If it doesn't work, we'll see."

Chen Hanzhou has been completely "abandoned" by the combat department, and another friend, Song Yijun, is trying to redeem himself. He hopes that his good brother, Kuang Miao, can keep up with the pace.

"Elite Legion level, plus special abilities, alright, starting tomorrow you'll train with the Yama Legion. Let Xiao Chen mentor you, he's one of the most awesome experts in our legion!"

Zhang Su smiled and patted Chen Hanzhou on the shoulder.

"Brother Su, please stop teasing me... Um, if there's nothing else, I'll take Miaozi and head over first, and show him the teaching videos from Elder Zong these past two days."

"Okay, go ahead, I'll talk to them some more."

Zhang Su waved his hand, and after Chen Hanzhou and Kuang Miao left, he went straight to the point, took out a box from his waist bag, and said, "This contains the original modification fluid that Elder Zong brought from the Creation World. He said it was used by the War Eagle Division, and it should have some research value."

During their training camp at the port, the two talked about the cyborgs, and Zhang Su casually asked for it...

"Oh, that's wonderful! Mr. Zhang, this is extremely valuable!"

Fu Weijun excitedly accepted the box.

Xie Yanshan glanced at it and said awkwardly, "Mr. Zhang, I'm being cynical. Is this modification fluid genuine?"

In his view, Tianma Island and Chuangshi were not on friendly terms, so he naturally had to be extra careful about what the other party brought over.

"At least Elder Zong promised me there would be no problem, but it's possible he was also kept in the dark. In any case, it can't be used by anyone; it's limited to scientific research!"

Zhang Su can ensure Zong Lao's loyalty, but whether the Creator General will betray Zong Lao is another matter.

Okay, I understand.

The two nodded solemnly; this was no laughing matter, and they knew what they were doing.

"Let me... um? What's in there?"

As Zhang Su was about to leave, he glanced to the side and noticed a can of pale green liquid inside the temperature-controlled chamber. Things of this color always have a story behind them.

"This is a project I'm currently working on, but it's still in the research and development stage and hasn't been successful yet."

Fu Weijun's vague words made Zhang Su's eyes flash.

"This green color looks really pretty, but what's its specific purpose?"

"Specifically, it can be understood as a potion used to kill zombies."

When Zhang Su pressed him for details, Fu Weijun finally confessed.

"Oh?"

Zhang Su was immediately curious, so he walked closer to the temperature-controlled chamber and stared at it through the glass. However, his superhuman eyesight was not enough to penetrate the microscopic world, so he could not see anything.

"Dr. Fu, I'd like to hear about the specific function and principle of this thing."

Fu Weijun took a deep breath and said, "It's like this... I chatted with Brother Duan and found that the current methods for killing zombies are very limited and consume a lot of manpower and resources. Killing them safely is even more troublesome. But in the end, all that's needed is brain death for a zombie to die."

So, the idea was to develop a drug that could rapidly and extensively eliminate zombies. The working principle of this drug was simple: it would directly act on the central nervous system controlled by the zombies, with the desired effect being similar to piercing the zombie's brain and causing instant death. However, it still had flaws. Fu Weijun explained in detail, while Zhang Su observed the reactions of those around him. Zuo Fengjuan and Duan Wuhu seemed completely bewildered, while Xie Yanshan's eyes held a thoughtful expression.

It's clear that apart from Fu Weijun, no one else knew about this; it was part of his specialized research!
Since that's the case, then we need to pay even more attention to it...

Zhang Su stroked his chin and asked, "The idea is very good, but I wonder what flaw Dr. Fu is referring to?"

Fu Weijun knew this was a probing question, so he frankly said, "Mr. Zhang knows that ordinary zombies go into a berserk state after being set on fire, and zombies poisoned by poison will also go through that stage before they die... lasting about five minutes."

Furthermore, according to my calculations, there's still significant room for improvement in the lethality rate. What I need to do now is shorten the berserk phase as much as possible, ideally eliminating it entirely, and then increase the lethality rate—that would be perfect!

"A non-combustible berserk zombie, which then farts after going berserk... isn't this just a zombie version of a super stimulant?"

Zhang Su smiled strangely. He could imagine the scene after using poison on a large group of zombies—it would be a stampede of ten thousand corpses.

"Hey, Brother Zhang, you know what, it actually has a bit of that appeal."

Duan Wuhu felt that Zhang Su's use of straightforward language had completely changed the meaning.

"Well... Dr. Fu, continue your research, but keep this current plan. I think it might come in handy in certain situations! Or... could we just make the zombies go berserk without killing them?"

As long as no one is harmed, Zhang Su still highly approves of Fu Weijun's research.

Fu Weijun was very happy to receive permission. After thinking for a moment about the request made by his boss, he said, "It is theoretically feasible, but large-scale testing is needed for specific situations."

"Okay, you go ahead and do it. Then we'll go directly to the riverbank to test it. Don't do it at the camp anymore. There are more and more people here now, and it might not be safe."

“Then I’ll seal up a batch of super-stimulants in the next few days,” Fu Weijun said enthusiastically.

"Sure, but how do you use this on a zombie?"

Zhang Su gently tapped on the glass of the temperature-controlled chamber.

"It's very simple. Just spray it like you would pesticides. You can use a drone for large-scale spraying or a sprayer for precise application. It takes about ten seconds to take effect."

Fu Weijun provided more data.

"I understand. One more question: what effect does this thing have on people?"

"Uh, I've tested it... It can also cause some harm to people. It's the exact opposite of zombies. It can make people become demented, similar to a deep drunken state, lasting for more than five hours. After waking up, they will feel weak all over and have a headache."

"Isn't this just from drinking too much? It's a stimulant for zombies, but a tranquilizer for humans... Alright, make a batch and give it to me. That's all, I'm leaving now, you guys should go back and get some rest too."

Zhang Su waved his hand, then gave Duan Wuhu a knowing smile that all men would understand, causing Zuo Fengjuan to blush slightly.

Upon arriving at Cui Leng Xuan, one could sense a sweet and intimate atmosphere between Duan Wuhu and Zuo Fengjuan. It was obvious that Duan Wuhu had accepted Zuo Fengjuan's advances, and the two had successfully become a couple.

"Again?"

As Zhang Su stepped downstairs, his heart skipped a beat. Someone was planning a sneak attack. In the blink of an eye, he heard a soft "plop."

"Ha, Su, uh... ah!"

Zhou Haotian activated the jet propulsion device from the shadows, intending to give Zhang Su a sneaky hug. He was fast, but Zhang Su reacted even faster, using a footwork technique to propel himself forward more than a meter before landing, successfully dodging Zhou Haotian's hug.

However, Zhou Haotian was in trouble. The force of the jet of air did not diminish, and it pushed him over the edge. He rolled around on the ground twice before he recovered.

"Ouch... Brother Su, you, you noticed me?"

Zhou Haotian rubbed his arms and waist as he stood up, the nozzle falling to the ground with a thud, making him look a bit disheveled.

Zhang Su found it amusing and shook his head, saying, "If I couldn't even dodge a sneak attack like yours, I would have died countless times! Do you need something from me?"

"Um, today Brother Chang and I studied the climate transformation layout map together. Would you like to review it?"

Zhou Haotian limped over to Zhang Su.

Zhang Su shook his head and said, "I only care about the final result. You can handle the preliminary work yourselves. Look at this thing, it's so flimsy. It'll fall apart if you drop it. Hurry up and improve it."
