Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 969: Detoxification
Chapter 969: Chapter 969: Detoxification
Yao Rui nodded and took out a Snow Spirit Flower that Su Jin had given her.
“Su Jin, how should this be used?”
Only then did Yao Rui realize she did not know the usage. She thought it was raw material and wanted to try it.
“Eat it directly,”
Su Jin handed the flower of the Snow Spirit Flower to Song Jun, indicating for him to swallow it directly.
Zeng Jun looked at Yao Rui and then at Su Jin and the white flower in her hand, was it really?
“Song Jun!”
“Daddy!”
At this moment, a long-haired woman ran out from the base gate holding a four or five-year-old girl. They were just informed by Song Jun’s teammate and rushed over as soon as they learned Song Jun was injured.
Several of Song Jun’s teammates followed behind them.
“Glad we made it in time,”
Zhang Wenqiang said. Regardless, they wanted this family of three to meet for possibly the last time, but now the scene was?
Song Jun’s teammate Zhang Wenqiang and his group looked at the scene before them; why were there so many people?
Why did even the Base Leader come out?
“Ah Lan! Xiao Yun!”
Song Jun looked joyfully at his wife and daughter, their faces stained with tears. Remembering what Yao Rui had just said, he swallowed the unknown flower.
“Where’s your wound?”
Su Jin asked.
Gritting his teeth, Song Jun took off his clothes, revealing a claw mark on his back that had already started to blacken!
The woman named Ah Lan covered her mouth, crying and kneeling. This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for her.
Su Jin nodded and took a blanket from the space, letting Lu Hao spread it on the ground.
“Lie face down on it, with your back up,”
Su Jin said.
Without hesitation, Song Jun lay down. He could tell this girl wanted to save him; otherwise, the Base Leader wouldn’t have said so.
After crushing the flower stem and applying it to the wound, Su Jin crouched down and said to Song Jun:
“This is an antidote to the Zombie Virus. It’s just that you’ll be in pain later. Just hang in there, and you’ll be fine soon,”
Su Jin said.
Many in the crowd heard Su Jin’s words and immediately became excited.
Is it really an antidote?
“Girl, this, can my husband really be saved? Does this antidote really work?”
Song Jun’s wife, Ah Lan, asked with a look of surprise.
“Yes, other bases have already saved people. Just wait a moment,”
Su Jin replied.
“Thank you so much, I’ll get through it,”
Song Jun asked Ah Lan to hold their daughter farther from him, worried he might harm them. Now, the Base Leader had already ordered people to disperse the surrounding crowd to the side.
A scream suddenly started, startling everyone into thinking Song Jun was about to zombify.
But a few seconds later, they realized it wasn’t a sign of zombification. A large amount of sweat began pouring out of Song Jun, and he tried to suppress his screams, biting his teeth and groaning.
“Daddy…”
Xiao Yun reached out, wanting to check on Song Jun.
“Don’t worry, little one, Daddy will feel uncomfortable for a while, but he’ll be fine soon,”
Mao Qiqi comforted from the side. She handed Xiao Yun a lollipop, finally able to call others little ones.
“Thank you, sister,”
Xiao Yun politely accepted the lollipop but continued to look worriedly at Song Jun in the distance.
“It’s tough for him,”
Yao Rui felt a little guilty. She had hesitated to use the antidote, unaware of the Snow Spirit Flower’s potent reaction.
“That’s why we need more Snow Spirit Flowers to refine a more easily and quickly administered antidote,”
Su Jin said.
Research on the antidote hasn’t stopped; Lian Ze and Tang Xue are discussing how to reduce the usage of Snow Spirit Flowers and speed up detoxification.
“You guys are truly extraordinary; this isn’t just asking for our help, you’re giving us hope,”
Yao Rui thought the people from the S City Base were very kind and courteous. How could anyone not cooperate on such a matter?
Amidst everyone’s anticipation and shock, Song Jun’s screams gradually subsided, and the black part of the wound on his back vanished. Su Jin used her wood element ability to quickly restore Song Jun’s wound as good as new.
The experiment was over, and the detoxification was successful, causing a stir throughout the room.
Many cheered on the spot, while others remembered teammates or loved ones lost to small wounds.
Zeng Yan and numerous staff looked at the family of three embracing and crying. Their previously cold expressions finally eased.
For the first time, they saw such a scene of reversal.
Was the era of losing one’s life to a zombie scratch finally coming to an end?
Yao Rui revised the base’s entry rules that day and urged everyone to rush back to the base for treatment as soon as they’re injured outside.
The checkpoint staff became a “green channel” instead of “cold-faced guards.” Anyone with a zombie scratch or bite wound will be taken to an isolation room for treatment.
The Heart Talk Team from S City Base donated 300 Snow Spirit Flowers, considering the large population at D City Base.
Next was the summoning of Wood Element Ability Users and the scheduling of seminars.
…
In the space, Su Jin wanted to jump into the teleportation array at the S City Base and go home to see the two little ones. But she rationally held back.
She hoped the two little ones would quickly mature so she could use the jade slip to bond with them.
“Rest assured, Xixi and Wangwang are already asleep, and during the day, they are happily helping out at the Heart Talk branch,”
Huang Yunxiang said.
The whole family treated Lu Xi and Lu Wang as their own children, so the little ones never felt lonely.
“Thank you, Aunt,”
Su Jin smiled embarrassedly.
Before bedtime, she nurtured the Snow Spirit Flower a bit, preparing to exhaust her special ability from the day.
Tomorrow, Su Xiangzhe and the other three will continue to appear at D City Base as Dragon Ruler. From what they know, the resources at D City Base are about to run out, and Yao Rui has already started to worry.
“We’ve been storing food for months, now we’re finally starting to deplete it,”
Lin Cheng was satisfied watching Su Jin use her consciousness to store a large batch of supplies in the storage bag. With Su Jin at D City Base, even if resources were insufficient tomorrow, she could help.
…
In the pitch-black night, droplets from melting snow fell with a drip into the puddle.
Amidst the restless horde of zombies, chewing and devouring sounds echoed constantly. Over a dozen zombies were feasting on the brains of nearby zombies, gradually absorbing the crystal cores within.
Among them, there was a zombie that remained motionless, watching it all. It sat on a chair, different from the others who stood upright.
Its gray pupils turned with its stiff neck towards the window, looking at the slightly reflective puddle on the ground, then walked over to look inside.
A hideously ugly face was reflected inside.
