Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Chapter 544: Chapter 494: Condition_2

Over thirty meters above, below were all Zombies.

Above, it was constantly raining as if the sky had a leak, a torrential downpour drenching everything.

The wind was rampant.

The Water Tower, seemingly on the verge of collapse, even though they knew it was an illusion.

Still, being at such a high altitude, it was inevitably terrifying.

....

At Big Camphor Tree Base, Third Uncle and others had left the base six days ago.

Dozens of people had suddenly left the base, yet there were still nearly two hundred people remaining.

Due to the recent rains, people cooperating with the base had all moved to the Outer City temporarily to avoid the Zombie Tide.

With Li Yu’s plans progressing, more external members were joining the base.

These external members could contribute significantly for very little food.

The scarcity of food was the most critical issue in the post-apocalyptic world.

Li Yu’s policy was to redirect rather than block.

...

Li Yu, as usual, went to Weng City, located between the Inner City and the Outer City, to inspect the current bullet production.

After reviewing, he found no issues and was about to return to the Inner City when Zhong Baijie, who was also in Weng City, called him over.

Bai Jie was dressed in white, her outfit somewhat resembling hospital attire. She wore gold-rimmed glasses and her black hair naturally fell over her shoulders.

Li Yu arched an eyebrow, glanced curiously at Bai Jie, and asked, ”Is there something?”

Bai Jie had a mole on the corner of her mouth and said with a smile, ”There’s a small research discovery. Come, take a look.”

Li Yu, hearing this, showed an excited expression, A discovery!

”What discovery?”

Bai Jie smiled, then said to Li Yu, ”Come into the Research Room, I’ll show you.”

Without suspicion, Li Yu followed Bai Jie inside.

After Bai Jie led Li Yu into the Research Room, her pace slowed considerably, even falling behind Li Yu, and she closed the door of the Research Room.

Li Yu looked around and didn’t see Xiao Lan, also studying biological science.

Thus, he curiously asked, ”Where has Xiao Lan gone?”

Bai Jie casually responded, ”She felt a bit unwell today, she’ll come later.”

After saying that, Bai Jie slowly walked over from the door towards Li Yu.

Li Yu stared at Bai Jie and pushed, ”You just mentioned a discovery, what did you find? Don’t beat around the bush; I’ve still got things to do.”

Hearing Li Yu say this, Bai Jie’s expression turned much more serious and she slowly walked to a microscope which had some dissected Zombie slices under it. Pointing at the microscope, she explained to Li Yu, ”Take a look at the cell activity here. Previously we found that Zombie bodies are prone to combustion.

We often see during rainfall, their mobility and sensitivity increase significantly.

Through the microscope, we can see that in dried Zombie slice samples, the internal cell activity is much lower than in bodies that have been wet in rainfall.

Though we don’t know why, at least now we can explain why their sensitivity increases so much during rainfall.

It’s like a piece of soil, extremely rigid when dry, but becomes malleable with some water added.

The rain softens these Zombies’ internal muscles, and even deeper elements...”

Li Yu, hearing her explanation, didn’t feel much surprise because he already knew this.

Of course, this was still a significant discovery for people nowadays.

So, Li Yu smiled at Bai Jie and said, ”Very good, it’s great that you found this, but keep pushing forward.”

He then said some words of encouragement.

After that, he was ready to leave.

But, just as he was about to leave, Bai Jie suddenly dashed in front of him; she was so fast she nearly collided with Li Yu.

A faint fragrance blew over.

Li Yu sniffed and frowned slightly.

He asked, ”What’s up? Is there anything else?”

Bai Jie adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses and then somewhat hesitantly said, ”Last time, didn’t you ask me to resolve the scientific formula issue with the bullets?”

Li Yu nodded and replied, ”Yes, you’ve done a very good job, you’ve solved it, you’re amazing.”

His tone was somewhat perfunctory.

After saying that, he suddenly realized something and then said, ”I remember, I promised you last time that if you could do it, I would fulfill one condition for you. Are you now...wanting to cash in that condition?”

Bai Jie said, ”Yes. I’d like you to fulfill that condition now.”

Li Yu looked at her, still guessing what condition Bai Jie might want him to fulfill, so he looked at her and said, ”Tell me, what is it?”

Bai Jie licked her lips, the weather somewhat dry.

The mole at the corner of her mouth.

”You,” Bai Jie moved closer.

Hiss～

Li Yu gasped in cool air.

He was a man of integrity, never taking advantage of others in their time of vulnerability.

But he was also a generous person, always keen to help others.

This request, Li Yu found it difficult to handle.

Li Yu remained composed as he inquired.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Bai Jie’s face, then she forced a smile and said, ”It’s that simple. Besides, you don’t have to worry about our identities.

Rather than being upfront, I prefer sneaking around. This feeling is thrilling enough.”

At this point, the word ”consume.”

It seemed to open a Pandora’s box.

The white walls of Li Yu’s Research Room, Bai Jie had suggested painting them pure white initially, clean and generous, nice and simple.

Li Yu’s mind wandered.

Listening to the sound of rain outside the window, it trickled rhythmically.

Accompanied by this sound.

Li Yu closed his eyes, the recent rainy weather kept the air moist, and the air he breathed was damp.

Yet, at this moment, a pleasant scent filled the entire space.

Bai Jie had a great figure, 168 cm tall, weighing 110 pounds.

Neither thin nor fat.

Slender waist, well-shaped legs, very attractive.

The key is that from any angle, she possessed an extraordinary capacity, difficult for ordinary people to match.

As if carrying a wildness that one couldn’t grasp!

Getting submerged in it was even more mesmerizing.

Li Yu knew that Bai Jie was a born fighter!

Perhaps for other reasons, perhaps because Li Yu was currently worried about Third Uncle.

Li Yu’s mood flew to a distant place, his thoughts jumbled.

Suddenly, he felt some pain, looked down, and saw Bai Jie giving him a cold look, seemingly blaming him for not being focused at such a time.

Was he really that inadequate?

This made Bai Jie feel somewhat defeated, her face carrying a semblance of tears.

Li Yu frowned.

This was an apocalypse.

Seeing Li Yu frowning, Bai Jie boldly said, ”Director Li, are you still a man?”

???

Upon hearing this, Li Yu became furious.

His gaze bore into Bai Jie, a remarkable woman, and it was May now.

The weather was humid with a bit of heat.

”Why is it empty?” Li Yu asked Bai Jie, looking at the white coat that only contained this thing.

”It’s hot,” she replied.

”Then I’m leaving.”

...

...

...

Two hours later.

The early morning path.

Wild grass was covered with dew.

Li Yu, feeling refreshed, looked at the still shadowy skies.

He left the Research Room without looking back.

This time, he was very satisfied with Bai Jie’s research findings, breaking some of his inner thoughts.

The apocalypse is here, what’s the point of being so timid and hesitant.

Without overthinking, and after having a profound exchange with Bai Jie, he realized that Bai Jie indeed was talented. It seems that he could engage more with Bai Jie on biological science in the future.

One must keep learning to continue progressing.

People are like books, understanding a person is like reading a book.

Books need to be read over and over to be thoroughly understood.

In doing so, one can transform the knowledge from the book into their own.
