Chapter 935: Chapter 935: Little White Flower
The spot where they fell is dozens of ters below. After collecting the samples, Su Jin grew a vine plant and brought everyone up.
“Even the Divine Stone lted?”
Nie Qing looked at the ice layer they’d researched before falling into the cave, now just a puddle of liquid waiting to evaporate…
“What a pity, I was planning to find a way to take it back and have a look,”
Su Jin said with regret.
“Everything in this world truly has a balance,”
Nie Qing said; after the flower was moved out, all the previous anomalies here disappeared.
“I think… could that person who was bitten by a zombie but didn’t turn into one also be because of this kind of flower?”
Lu Hao suddenly rembered this matter. At that ti, he and Su Jin found a cave similar to this one.
“So, from the beginning, was there actually an antidote to the zombie virus?”
Su Jin found this idea difficult to accept. After running around in the apocalypse for three years, is this the result?
“It’s just my guess; everything needs a process, right?”
Lu Hao comforted her. Perhaps this was what Nie Qing often referred to as timing.
“Yes, the right ti, place, and people are all indispensable,”
Nie Qing nodded.
“Could there be more places like this around here? Let’s look for them,”
Lin Cheng looked around. Isn’t it just a matter of finding where the ice and snow haven’t lted?
So the group searched again, but even after climbing to the peak of Mount M, they couldn’t find another place like this.
“Here it is, the commorative stele Xue Wanyi ntioned before,”
Lu Hao looked at the carved symbol on a stone stele at the top of Mount M.
Su Jin let Lin Xiuyuan and the other two into the space and then started taking pictures with Lu Hao of the scene here, including sampling and asuring the data as instructed by Tang Xue. They were busy until almost sunset before everything was finally done.
“Let’s go; maybe we won’t have to co here again,”
Su Jin said.
“I hope so,”
Lu Hao held Su Jin’s hand, taking one last look at the scenery here.
Labi was summoned, boldly and confidently carrying them downhill. anwhile, Su Jin, feeling uneasy, entered the space to check on the fairly normal-looking flower. Seeing it wasn’t withered, she left the space relieved.
…
Tang Xue and the others all awaited today’s Su Jin and Lu Hao, as the two had ntioned before setting out that they would reach the summit today.
“I really wonder what the summit is like,”
Chang Xuan imagined, looking at the photo taken from afar.
When they saw the footage and photos Su Jin and Lu Hao brought back, they truly saw what the top of Mount M was like.
“These are the samples we collected above. The samples may be full of zombie virus, so please take precautions during testing,”
Su Jin said, taking a large box of samples from the space.
“Thank you so much; we hope we can make so discoveries,”
Tang Xue said excitedly, looking at the box of samples.
“Tang Xue, everyone, there’s sothing else,”
Su Jin said, glancing at a few special ability users responsible for security that Tang Xue had invited.
Before their findings were confird, she thought it best to keep things confidential for now.
“Xiao Liu, you all step out for a bit,”
Tang Xue saw what Su Jin was thinking and knew what Su Jin was about to say might be important.
Once all non-research personnel had left, Su Jin took out a flower planted in a pot from the space.
She didn’t know how to explain the scenes she had seen in her mind, as it all seed too fantastical. So Lu Hao told the story they had prepared on their return journey about what happened on the mountain.
“This isn’t scientific,”
Lian Ze reacted first after hearing it.
“You an, after you pulled out this flower, all the ice and snow in the cave lted, and the detector started virus alarms?”
Tang Xue was also incredulous, thinking she had misheard.
Su Jin nodded and said:
“Exactly, so we suspect maybe this flower is the antidote to the zombie virus,”
“But there’s only this one flower,”
Lu Hao added.
Lian Ze, who wanted to imdiately slice up the flower for study: “…”
“What… what should we do?”
Fang Zhengyang was also at a loss. He had so knowledge of plants, but such a flower was sothing he had never seen before, let alone known its na.
“I’ll nourish it with wood elent abilities for now, and can you study a petal from it?”
Su Jin asked with heartache. No matter how miraculous, the usefulness of this flower depends on the conclusions drawn by these researchers.
“Just one petal? How can you study that!”
Chen Ming, whose hair was graying, said. He was actually not very old, just a bit overworked, causing part of his hair to turn white.
“Alright,”
Lian Ze thought it over and stood up to reply.
One petal, he should manage.
Tang Xue and the others were surprised to see Lian Ze: “Are you really sure?”
“I’m sure, it’s just that the conditions here are limited, so it might take so ti,”
Lian Ze said; he had to do it. He ca here to find the origin of the zombie virus, aiming to find a solution to it. Now, having co across this miraculous event, how could he just walk away?
“I believe in you,”
Su Jin placed the small white flower on the table, then took out a pair of tweezers and carefully removed a petal.
The five petals suddenly beca four.
The group watched nervously, relieved to see that the petal remained unchanged after being removed, though the flower looked more fragile.
“Su Jin, if you just leave it in the space, won’t it suffocate?”
Tang Xue hesitated for a mont before asking.
“It won’t for now. I’m using wood elent abilities to sustain it; it just consus a bit of my abilities,”
Su Jin said, making things up.
Just kidding, the flower would live better in the space!
Lian Ze, carrying the hopes of everyone, entered his private research room with the petal and locked the door from the inside.
“…Let’s head back,”
Su Jin said to Lu Hao. All she wanted was to enter the space to research the flower and process today’s events.
“Really, you’ve worked hard. I hope what we do will eventually be aningful,”
Tang Xue sincerely said to Su Jin.
“Good luck; we’re waiting for your good news,”
Su Jin replied. They needed to return soon to take Lin Xiuyuan and the others out to avoid Guo Yang discovering them.
