Chapter 655 - 655: Race Against Time
Lang Nan thought for a moment, and then right on the heels of that, he patted his face, wanting to pull himself together as soon as possible. “Go to the laboratory immediately and tell them that the antidote this time must guarantee me quality. If I lose to Shan Yue again, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
“Understood, Brother Lang. 1’11 do it immediately.”
While all parties were still preparing their plans, the development of the entire matter far exceeded everyone’s imagination.
During this week, although Yu Sen and Luo Xin’s live-stream had proven the reliability of their vaccines, no one was the first to dare to try. Most people chose to wait and see, waiting for the results in a week.
However, this week gave the virus a chance to invade the Federation’s Central City again. This time, it was not just an ordinary virus, but a mutated virus.
This news was also released by Shan Yue in the name of the Shan Corporation after verification. The spread of the news completely turned the Federation’s Central City into a dead city.
Other than the doctors who were running around, there was only the ambulance that pulled the patients.
But even so, it gave Yu Sen an opportunity.
In order to prevent infection, most of the people who were still safe couldn’t care less. They all went to the free agency set up by Yu Sen to get vaccines.
Shan Yue only sleeps for three to four hours a day now. All her other time and energy were invested in the research of the antidote. She knew very well that the vaccine was only a protective thing, but for people who had already been infected, it could be said that it was useless. They would still be tortured by illness.
The only good news at the moment was that Shan Yue had found some clues to make the antidote through the production method of the vaccine. If she followed the clues, what she needed the most now was time.
At noon, the phone on the table suddenly rang. Shan Yue, who was not in the mood to care about anything else, saw that the caller’s name was Zhou Xuan and picked up the call.
“Shan Yue, how have you been?”
Zhou Xuan’s tone was very gentle, as if he was coaxing a child. “I know you’ve been very busy recently. Coupled with the serious situation outside, I didn’t disturb you much.”
“I’m fine here. Although the vaccine has been successfully developed, it can’t play a fundamental role. If we want the Federation’s Central City to return to its previous state, we have to make a greater breakthrough.”
Shan Yue’s voice was a little hoarse. “It’s the most critical moment in the development of the antidote, so we can’t let our guard down at all. Every step needs a lot of time to complete.”
“However, according to the current situation in Federation City, there’s really not much time left. With people living such a closed life, let alone their bodies, even their minds will collapse sooner or later.”
Zhou Xuan’s cold eyes narrowed slightly, and his thin lips parted slightly. “The Federation City’s economy is falling like a cliff. If this continues, the entire city will collapse.”
“Actually, what worries me the most now is not this, but the spread of the virus. The Federation City is currently in a completely sealed state, which is why the pneumonia virus has yet to spread.”
Worries appeared between Shan Yue’s brows. “But have you ever thought that if the last line of defense of the Federation City collapses before I successfully develop the antidote? At that time, people with or without the virus will flee in all directions and leave this dangerous place.”
“I understand. Once it develops to that extent, it will really be uncontrollable.” Zhou Xuan slowly walked to the window, his cold eyes staring at the silence outside. “At that time, not only would the Federation’s Central City fall, but the entire country would also fall. The economy would be paralyzed, and the illness and torture would be unimaginable.”
“That’s why I’m strictly controlling my time now. I’m racing against time. As long as I can outrun him, everything will be fine. But if I can’t outrun him, I can’t predict the future..”
