After resting for a day, Ye Chen's wounds had healed a lot. He could get out of bed and do some simple activities. As long as he didn't move too much, his wounds wouldn't open again.
"It's the last day."
Ye Chen said in his heart. He looked out of the window and looked up at the sky.
Blue sky, white clouds.
Ye Chen was silent for a long time. Suddenly, the door was pushed open. Ye Zhu, who was wearing a light purple dress, walked in slowly. She looked at Ye Chen who was sitting by the window. Her eyes were gentle. She walked over and said softly, "What are you thinking about?"
Ye Chen slowly withdrew his gaze from the sky. He turned his head and looked at Ye Zhu silently. After a while, he suddenly sighed and said, "Nothing. That Professor Mo Feng has already extracted the genes of the mutated ants, right?"
Ye Zhu nodded and asked curiously, "What do you want the genes of the mutated ants for?"
Ye Chen smiled and shook his head. He didn't say anything.
The risk of becoming a genetic warrior was very high. Especially in the early stage when one didn't have enough experience in science and technology. It was almost a 90% chance of dying. He naturally wouldn't tell anyone about such a dangerous thing. Anyway, it wouldn't have any effect. Why should he let others worry?
Ye Zhu frowned. She vaguely felt that Ye Chen had something on his mind. But seeing that he didn't want to say, she didn't ask. If he didn't want to say, then he must have his reasons. Why should she ask?
"Let's go. Accompany me for a walk." Ye Chen got off the bed and put on his shoes. He opened the door and walked out with a smile.
Ye Zhu stared at his back for a while. She helplessly sighed and followed him.
When they walked out of the room, there was an empty and cold corridor outside. The lights were bright and there was no one around. It gave people a cold feeling.
"This is the living area of the research institute. The hall is here."
Ye Zhu pointed to the left corridor and walked over. Along the way, she explained the layout of the research institute to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen just listened silently while her clear and melodious voice that was like an oriole coiled around his ears. His heart was completely calm, and even the aura of slaughter that had accumulated within his body had calmed down.
In the quiet corridor, the two of them walked slowly.
Ye Chen's eyes flashed with a hint of undetectable loneliness. Before every operation, he would always be prepared for the worst. This time was no different. With the simple and crude equipment of this research institute, the mortality rate was as high as 90%!
If the awakening failed, he would die!
Once the awakening was successful, he would have a meteoric rise. In the early days of the doomsday, he would have absolute tyrannical power and could protect everyone around him. He would not be completely helpless when encountering monsters like the Devil Wind Hound.
Ye Chen was not a gambler, but fate and this world forced him to gamble.
With his 31-man strength system, the mortality rate in the Year 1, Month 2 of the Dark Calendar was also extremely high. Even if he barely made it through the second month, he would fall into a hellish nightmare in the third month. After that, the fourth month, the fifth month …
The increase in the monster's strength was getting more and more terrifying!
Ye Chen still remembered that in his previous life, in the Year 1, Month 2 of the Dark Calendar, the world's first genetic warrior was born. After that, in the third month, the national army started to build a base city. At that time, the development of mankind in the doomsday era had accelerated, and the number of genetic warriors had increased.
In the later days of the doomsday era, almost everyone was a genetic warrior.
Ye Chen knew that it was much easier to awaken a genetic warrior in the early days than in the later days. This was because the genes of the monsters in the later days were more brutal and ferocious, making them harder to tame.
"If I die …"
Ye Chen felt a trace of sadness in his heart. His only concern was his sister, Ye Zhu.
When death was right in front of you, you would realize that there were still many things that you could not let go of.
The two of them walked down the corridor.
Not long after, they arrived at a spacious hall. The chandeliers were luxurious and bright.
Ye Zhu took Ye Chen to the elevator and arrived at the first floor of the basement.
Ding!
The elevator door opened.
"Hey, are these all zombies?"
"Why are there so many of them?"
Yue Heng and the White Dragon's voices sounded in the cold basement. Ye Chen looked up and saw that the basement was like a small factory. There were many test tubes filled with nutrient solutions, and there were many naked men and women.
Ye Zhu looked at the test tubes around her and seemed to be afraid. She said, "These test tubes are the experimental subjects of the previous research institute. Later, they were infected by the virus and became zombies."
Ye Chen nodded. The two of them walked inside together. After passing by a test tube, the naked woman in the test tube suddenly opened her eyes and coldly stared at Ye Chen's back …
In the innermost area, White Dragon and Yue Heng followed behind Dr. Mo Feng. They looked around and were full of surprise. White Dragon was more restrained. After all, he was a top student who graduated from Tsinghua University. He had a lot of experience, so he was not too surprised.
Yue Heng, on the other hand, looked around like a country bumpkin who had just entered the city. He was just an ordinary person who had dropped out of high school and entered society to work. This kind of scene that he had only seen in movies was very refreshing.
"What are you guys doing?" Ye Zhu curiously looked at the three of them.
White Dragon turned his head and saw Ye Chen behind her. He was surprised and said, "You can get out of bed?"
Ye Chen nodded slightly.
White Dragon smiled and said, "We are following this doctor to test the test. This madman said that he wants to develop an antidote to crack the virus. He specially asked me to be a senior consultant. You know, I graduated from Tsinghua University. I know astronomy and geography. This kid has found the right person." He winked at Dr. Mo Feng.
Dr. Mo Feng glanced at him and ignored him.
Yue Heng next to him asked curiously, "Didn't you beg Dr. Mo to let you see his studio?"
White Dragon glanced at him and said, "Will you die if you don't talk?"
"I won't die, but I will feel uncomfortable."
"Go to hell!"
"Why don't you go?"
"I'm more handsome than you."
"…"
Ye Chen looked at the two clowns and shook his head. He walked in front of Dr. Mo Feng and looked at his work table. He saw that his work table was extremely wide. There were many genes, cells, viruses and other test tubes.
At this time, Dr. Mo Feng took a syringe and sucked the liquid in a red test tube. He walked to a platform next to him.
This platform was the size of a single bed. A zombie was chained on it. Its skin was white, its eyes were light green, and its nails were extremely long. Its hands, feet, and head were tied tightly.
"What are you doing?" White Dragon curiously asked.
Dr. Mo Feng was expressionless and ignored him.
Ye Chen walked over and took a look at the red test tube. There was a label at the bottom: Blood Bacteria.
Looking at Dr. Mo Feng's action, Ye Chen frowned and shook his head, "It's useless. Zombies are classified as dark creatures. The blood bacteria won't change its genes and make it turn back into a human. Instead, it will become its energy and make it more violent."
Dr. Mo Feng raised his head. There was a trace of surprise in his eyes. He looked at the man with wounds all over his body. He immediately frowned and lowered his head to inject the blood bacteria into the zombie's body.
Roar!
As soon as the blood bacteria was injected, the sleeping zombie suddenly opened its eyes. Its eyes were filled with bloodlust. It crazily struggled and greedily looked at Dr. Mo Feng. It roared at him and made the chains that bound it make "hua hua" sounds.
Ye Chen shook his head and didn't say anything.
Dr. Mo Feng frowned. He turned around and took another syringe from the table. He injected the blue liquid into the zombie's body. Suddenly, the violent zombie gradually calmed down and then fainted.
Dr. Mo Feng threw the syringe into the trash can. He turned his head and looked at Ye Chen. He frowned and said, "How do you know?"
"Many scientists have experimented with this before. None of them have failed."
Ye Chen sighed. In his previous life, every headquarter city would do this kind of experiment. It was just that no headquarter city had ever succeeded.
Dr. Mo Feng didn't say anything else. He was a man of few words. He expressionlessly walked to the table and took out a black test tube. He handed it to Ye Chen and said, "This is the mutated ant gene you wanted."
Ye Chen took it and looked at it. After confirming that it was correct, he accepted it with ease.
"Let's go eat!" White Dragon patted his stomach and smiled at everyone.
Ye Chen nodded. He took a syringe and put it in his pocket. He turned around and walked a few steps. He suddenly remembered something. He turned around and looked at the young Dr. Mo Feng. He said, "These test tubes are filled with zombies. It's best to kill the zombies inside. After today, these zombies' strength will increase. When that time comes, these test tubes won't be able to stop the zombies inside."
Dr. Mo Feng's pupils shrank. He looked deeply at Ye Chen and immediately nodded.
Ye Chen didn't say anything else. He left the basement with his sister Ye Zhu and White Dragon. They went to the kitchen.
In the basement, Dr. Mo Feng looked at the direction Ye Chen left for a long time. His eyes had a trace of hesitation. After a while, he walked to the test tubes. He looked at all the sleeping zombies and coldly said, "You have all lost your value."
"Roar!"
"Hiss!"
The naked men and women in the test tubes opened their eyes one by one. Their originally handsome and delicate cheeks suddenly became ferocious. They stared straight at Dr. Mo Feng. Their eyes were filled with bloodlust and greed.
Dr. Mo Feng's expression was cold. He walked to the side and pressed a red switch. Suddenly, the green nutrient liquid in the test tube sank down. It flowed along the tube to an unknown place. Then, the yellow liquid flowed out from another tube and filled the test tube.
When these zombies touched the yellow liquid, they immediately screamed. Under the yellow liquid, they violently struggled. However, they couldn't break free from the test tube. In the end, they fell down one by one. There was no movement …
In the evening, after dinner, Ye Chen returned to his room alone. He stared at the crescent moon outside the window. He saw the moonlight shining through the window. It was cold and clear in the room. It pulled out his long shadow.
After a long time, Ye Chen took out the mutated ant gene and the syringe from his pocket. He sucked the gene into the syringe. Then he found a blood vessel on his arm and injected it.
The black gene was slowly injected into the body.
This process seemed to be as long as a century. In this intersection between life and death, Ye Chen's heart was extremely calm. After the injection, he threw the syringe and sat on the bed.
Thump!
Thump!
The room was terrifyingly quiet. Only the sound of his heartbeat sounded in his mind.
Ye Chen was silent for a long time. Gradually, he felt the changes in his body. A dry heat burned from his abdomen. His whole body was dripping with sweat. He silently walked into the room. From his backpack, he took out a photo. This was his family photo. Beside the middle-aged man and woman stood two children, one boy and one girl. They were smiling very happily …
"Dad, Mom."
Ye Chen muttered to himself as he held onto the photo.

Today, I will only update once. Organizing my thoughts and the content of the second article. The second article is very exciting, very scary, very bloody … I just signed the contract yesterday. Today, I saw many friends giving me tips. I was very touched. I wanted to explode, but for the sake of the big picture, I endured it. I will only explode when the article is recommended.
