Chapter 478: Got It
In the end, his finger didn’t fall.
“But I really don’t feel anything... ”
“It’s fine. Just pick one randomly. Just treat it as a lucky draw. Don’t feel pressured. ”
“God, you said it yourself. ” Mo Jiawei swiftly shifted his gaze, pointed at the map, and giggled. “God, I think this place is not bad. ”
“Yeah! I think so too! ” Fang Heng nodded in agreement and looked at the map.
Upon closer look, he mused, “Eh? This place is... the Eastern region? It seems quite near, too... Damn, isn’t this the prison shelter? ! ”
“Are you kidding me? ” Fang Heng looked up again, but Mo Jiawei had already dropped a simple sleeping bag and logged off.
Fang Heng scratched his hair. Things had gotten troublesome.
He had thought that District 8’s Plan Scorpio would be an entry point, but who would have thought that it would be forcefully terminated because the server opening time was too short? Plan Scorpio being out of his reach was unexpected.
“Fang Heng! ” As he was thinking, Fang Heng heard a joyful shout.
When he turned around, he saw Lucia.
Lucia walked quickly to Fang Heng and stood in front of him. She looked at him with a certain kind of expectation in her eyes. “Fang Heng, I missed you. ”
Fang Heng silently opened his arms, in which Lucia passionately threw herself. “What were you whispering to Mo Jiawei just now? ”
“Nothing. It’s work-related. ”
“Oh... Can you bring me to the parallel world next time? ”
“It’s a bit difficult. I don’t think I can bring someone there in a short time... ”
Cough, cough.
David coughed lightly and walked over. “Commander Fang Heng, it’s such a coincidence that you’re here. I just heard that there’s an important breakthrough in vaccine research, so I brought people over to take a look. I think we’re all family now. We can participate in the research together and speed up the research. What do you think of this proposal? ”
Fang Heng understood. David had come over to optimize the improvement of the anti-virus vaccine.
“Sounds good! It’s all to save this world. ” Fang Heng’s answer was righteous.
“Hint: player’s favorability rating with the Dark Knights has reached the minimum requirement. Cooperative Research has been triggered. Currently, the players’ shelter’s research efficiency of the anti-virus vaccine has increased to 230% . ”
Fang Heng glanced at the game hint.
The Dark Knights’ research team was decently capable. With their help, research and development of the anti-virus vaccine would be accelerated.
Perhaps they could also provide some of the materials needed to make the vaccine.
Fang Heng was deep in thought.
“Why don’t I see Dr. Qiu Yaokang? I want to talk to him about the details of the collaboration. Dr. Qiu’s insight of vaccine research is unique and accurate. It’s admirable. ”
They had only exchanged a few sentences, but the other party was already talking about business.
Fang Heng nodded and said, “He just went to the research room. I’ll bring you there. ”
“I hope we can develop an effective vaccine as soon as possible. I feel like this world will soon return to peace. ”
“By the way, can you tell me in detail about what happened in the parallel world? I’m pretty curious about the Dark Knights in that world. How are they doing? I think they should be fighting to save this world. ”
Fang Heng’s face froze as he mused, “They don’t seem to be doing well... ”
Fang Heng hurriedly changed the topic as they walked along the underground passage of the prison. “I observed a strong mutation reaction when I was conducting an anti-virus vaccine experiment in the parallel world. As the vaccine spread, the mutation reaction gradually increased. It has been confirmed that there is a mutation of Tier 5 mutated zombies. ”
He continued, “It will probably be very difficult to spread the vaccine around the world. Moreover, it is very dangerous to spread the vaccine at this stage. I think we need to spend some time to continue optimizing it. We can try to spread it after developing a more stable vaccine version. ”
David nodded in agreement. “Yes, you are right. This world has already suffered too much. We should think of a safer method. ”
With the thought of giving it a try, Fang Heng asked casually, “Oh right, David, have you heard of Plan Scorpio? It seems to be related to Meteorite Company... Huh? ”
The air suddenly froze, and everyone stopped in their tracks at the same time.
Fang Heng, stunned, could not help but turn around.
As David and the Dark Knights all looked at Lucia at the same time, Lucia moved her lips and clenched her fists.
Under everyone’s gaze, Lucia didn’t say a word. She turned around and ran away quickly.
What was going on?
Fang Heng was baffled. He looked at David with a questioning gaze.
David also looked at Fang Heng with a strange gaze. “Fang Heng, you really don’t know? ”
Fang Heng was completely dumbfounded. “Huh? Should I know something? ”
“All right. It seems like you really don’t know. Lucia was once involved in Plan Scorpio. Apparently, something happened when she was a child because she couldn’t control her strength, and her parents died in that accident. I heard from Barker that Lucia has always blamed herself for this. As for the details... ” David sighed. “That’s all we know. ”
Fang Heng was stunned and a pair of scarlet pupils appeared in his mind.
“Lucia’s eyes! They’re exactly the same as the scarlet pupils Wallace had! Fang Heng instantly understood that the trigger point for the Plan Scorpio mission was the Dark Knights, and he felt very fortunate.
If it was in District 7, he would probably never be able to trigger the next main storyline.
“Wait... ” Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat as he mused. “So... Mo Jiawei’s superpower of metaphysics worked once again! ? ”
“Fang Heng, I’ve seen more in life than you have. Whether you accept it or not, I have a suggestion that I feel I must give you... ” David saw Fang Heng deep in thought and asked, “Are you really not going to chase after Lucia? ”
“I almost forgot! ” Fang Heng thought as he came back to his senses again and immediately chased after Lucia.
...
Over in the prison.
The cold wind that blew against Lucia’s face made her feel better. She sat alone on the bench in the prison square.
When she thought of the things that were buried deep in her memory, Lucia’s eyes couldn’t help but turn red.
She clenched her fists and restrained herself from crying out loud.
Looking up, Lucia saw Fang Heng walking toward her.
“I’m sorry, Fang Heng. I... I didn’t mean to. It was an accident. I... ” Lucia was a little flustered and seemed eager to explain something.
“Yes, of course, I believe you. “Fang Heng sat next to Lucia. “I just found out about Plan Scorpio. It’s actually related to the global outbreak of the zombie virus that we’re investigating. ”
Lucia’s eyes were filled with confusion. “It’s related to the outbreak of the virus? ”
“You might not be comfortable with sharing your past. It’s okay. I just need to... ”
