"Jingzhe is here." The dean smiled and waved at him, "You know the base commander. Come, let me introduce you. This is Lu Xinyi who brought us the evolutionary fluid."

Then, he introduced him to Lu Xinyi, "Miss Lu, he is my student Jing Zhe. He has made great efforts in the research of evolution liquid."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xinyi couldn't help but look at the man named Jingzhe twice more.

She has a small ponytail, is tall and thin, and has an unhealthy and sickly complexion. She looks frail, but her eyes reveal a passion for knowledge and research.

He must be a highly intellectual person who is devoted to research.

Jingzhe didn't say much. He simply greeted Lu Xinyi and Zhao Li, then started talking about research with the dean.

The dean was also aware of his student's temperament. Apart from research, he was not interested in anything else.

"Base Commander, Miss Lu, I'm so sorry, I'm afraid I can't chat with you two any longer."

Zhao Li waved his hand and said, "President, you are busy. We will not disturb you. Goodbye."

After saying that, he left the laboratory with Lu Xinyi.

As the two of them walked out of the laboratory, Jing Zhe, who had been staring at the documents, suddenly turned his head and glanced at Lu Xinyi's slender back as she left.

The dean personally escorted the two out of the laboratory, and when he came back he couldn't help but sigh: "It's all thanks to Miss Lu. If she hadn't come all the way here to bring the evolutionary fluid, our research wouldn't have made such a breakthrough so quickly."

The dean didn't expect Jingzhe to respond to him, and after saying this, he started to get busy.

But Jingzhe said, "The evolutionary fluid that Miss Lu brought was really developed by the Dawn Base?"

"What else?" The dean said without thinking, "If the Dawn Base hadn't mentioned it, we wouldn't have known that they had developed the Evolution Liquid. It's also because the Dawn Base and M Base are both official bases, and everyone is thinking about the survival of mankind, so the Dawn Base allocated 100 bottles of Evolution Liquid to us for research."

At this point, the dean looked at him curiously and asked, "Jingzhe, why do you ask that? Are you doubting the origin of the evolutionary fluid?"

"I'm just saying it casually." Jingzhe said calmly, "Except for the official base, I'm afraid no other base has the ability to research the evolution fluid."

"That's right." The dean said, patting his shoulder. "Okay, get to work. Although we have developed a better evolutionary fluid than before, it is still far from the evolutionary fluid brought by Miss Lu."

"We don't expect to be able to develop an evolutionary fluid of the same level. It would be great if we can achieve 80% of the effect."

Jingzhe's eyes were filled with enthusiasm and he nodded heavily: "I understand, teacher."

……

In a blink of an eye, it is May.

Lu Xinyi and others stayed in Base M for nearly half a month.

The originally peaceful M base has suddenly become somewhat uneasy in the past two days.

"Someone has a fever again?"

"What's going on? Why are more and more people suffering from fever? Is there a plague?"

"Oh my God! Our lives are already difficult, what will we do if a plague breaks out?"

There were obviously fewer people in the cafeteria at noon than usual.

Everyone left in a hurry after receiving their food, unwilling to stay in the crowded cafeteria for even one more minute.

After Lu Xinyi and the others received their food, they left the cafeteria and found a shady spot outside the cafeteria to sit down and eat lunch.

"Is there really a plague in Base M?" Du Heng said with a frown after taking a bite of dry bread.

Li Wanzhi looked at the survivors who hurried out of the cafeteria and sighed, "Nine out of ten."

"Is the plague very scary?" Xia Lianqiao asked doubtfully. She was young, had little experience, and knew very little.

"It's terrible." Li Wanzhi said seriously, "If it were in peacetime, timely prevention might not be a big deal, but in the end times, once a plague occurs, the consequences will be disastrous."

Xia Lianqiao frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Is it because of the lack of medicine and medical conditions?"

"Yes." Li Wanzhi said, "What M Base lacks most right now is food and medicine. On weekdays, if there is a minor illness or pain, everyone can just bear it and it will pass. External injuries can be treated by healing people, but the plague is different."

A trace of sadness appeared on Xia Lianqiao's face, and she sighed, "It's the end of the world. The living environment for humans is already difficult, and we're still plagued by a plague?"

"Otherwise, what if this is the end of the world?" Lu Xinyi touched her head and comforted her, "Okay, don't think too much. With Base Director Zhao here, he won't let anything happen to Base M."

Lu Xinyi and the others were safe and sound, but Hua Dai was very worried these past two days.

Because Xi Wen also had a fever.

After hearing about this, Lu Xinyi went to Xi Wen's residence.

"How is Xiwen now?"

Hua Dai stayed by Xi Wen's bedside, changed a towel for her and put it on her forehead, sighing, "She's still feverish, groggy, and confused."

Lu Xinyi glanced at Xi Wen and saw that her cheeks were flushed and her lips were a little chapped.

She took out a box of antipyretic medicine from the space and handed it to Hua Dai, saying, "Give Xi Wen a pill of antipyretic medicine first."

Since it concerned Xi Wen's life, Hua Dai didn't bother to be polite. She took the medicine and quickly fed Xi Wen a pill.

"Don't worry too much." Lu Xinyi patted Hua Dai's shoulder and comforted her, "I still have a lot of medicine here. As long as the doctor says it can be cured, you can come to me if you need any medicine."

Hua Dai looked at her gratefully, her voice choking: "Ms. Lu, you have helped us so much. I really don't know how to thank you."

"Let's not talk about this now." Lu Xinyi sat down next to her and watched over Xi Wen with her, "Xi Wen's life is more important."

Looking at Xi Wen, who was fainting from fever on the bed, Hua Dai sighed and said, "I didn't know Xi Wen before. I only got to know her after the end of the world. Xi Wen doesn't talk much and is usually cold to people, but she is actually a very enthusiastic child in her heart. She's just not good at expressing it."

"I can tell."

Hua Dai smiled upon hearing this, but her smile was a little bitter, "I just hope Xi Wen can escape this disaster and wake up safely."

"Yes." Lu Xinyi said softly, and after thinking for a moment, she asked again, "Did the base find out anything? Is it really a plague?"

"Because Xi Wen is also sick, I have been watching over Xi Wen for the past two days and have not been asking for any news." Hua Dai shook her head and said, "I don't know much, but Yu Nan and Yuan Yi are asking around."

As he was speaking, the dormitory door that had been tightly closed was pushed open from the outside.

Yu Nan and Yuan Yi walked in one after another. The dormitory, which was not very spacious to begin with, suddenly seemed a bit cramped.

Without bothering to exchange pleasantries, Hua Dai went straight to the point and asked, "How is it going? Have you heard any news?"
