Chapter 254: First, Courtesy, Then Force

"Of course they are the same height!"

Professor Yuan shook his head: "That won't work. What if our research directions conflict? Whose decision will we make?"

There was silence in the laboratory.

Professor Wang was also taken aback, and quickly said, "That shouldn't be the case."

"Not now, but maybe later."

"Didn't we share a lab in school?"

"Why don't you tell me that we argued three times a day back then?"

"Weren't we young back then?" Professor Wang said angrily. "What can we do? There are only two labs here, and they're both full. We can't spare one for you."

Professor Yuan snorted coldly, "You dare to ask me to stay without an independent laboratory? Old Wang, why are you becoming less and less reliable as you get older?"

Professor Wang was speechless. He really wanted to keep Professor Yuan, but he didn't think too much about it.

At this moment, a hearty laugh came from outside the door: "I've heard of Professor Yuan's name for a long time. It's an honor to meet him now!"

Professor Wang was startled and quickly whispered, "Why is he here? This is Deputy Base Commander Li Jun."

Logically speaking, he should be with Zhao Shiyun now.

Soon Li Jun walked into the door. Zhao Lexi saw that he was a man of medium build, a little overweight, wearing black-framed glasses and with a smile on his face.

He extended his hand, walked over to Professor Yuan, and shook his hand warmly. "I've known Professor Yuan for a long time, and I'm honored to have you here today."

Professor Yuan had a good first impression of Li Jun.

Zhao Lexi followed Li Qiong and was surprised by the energy fluctuations of Li Jun, who was also a Level 5 Evolved Person. But her eldest brother had told her that there were only two Level 5 Evolved Persons in the Capital Base: Li Musheng, son-in-law of Base Commander Nie Ping'an, and Min Feng, deputy leader of the Xiangyu Mercenary Group, the largest mercenary group in the base.

There is nothing much to say about Li Musheng. Before the disaster, he passed the civil service exam and became a government civil servant. After learning about his evolutionary talent, he immediately got in touch with Nie Ping'an and walked step by step to Nie Ping'an's side. With the support of the base director's resources, he naturally became the most powerful evolutionary person in the base, and naturally established a romantic relationship with Nie Ping'an's daughter Nie Xiaoxia.

Min Feng's rise to fame is quite interesting. Before the disaster, he was a street urchin, working as a courier and later as an extra. Finally, thanks to his good looks, he hooked up with a wealthy woman. After the disaster, he fled with her to the capital base and then disappeared. When he reappeared, it was already winter. With his status as a Level 3 Evolved Person, he joined the Xiangyu Mercenary Group, the largest mercenary group in the capital. After achieving Level 5 Evolved Person in the spring, he was promoted to Deputy Group Leader.

In the previous life, the mercenary group that was wiped out by Zhao Lexi single-handedly was the Xiangyu Mercenary Group. At that time, Zhao Lexi never confronted the deputy leader Min Feng from beginning to end, which meant that he was not in the base. Otherwise, with his strength at the same level as hers, she would not have been able to successfully destroy the entire mercenary group.

In this life, because the zombies upgraded faster, the strength of the evolved humans also improved faster than in the previous life. She reached level five in the second year of the disaster, and they also reached level five early on.

The eldest brother didn't mention Li Jun, which means he concealed his own strength.

This is interesting.

Zhao Lexi stared at the unprepossessing Li Jun with curiosity in her big eyes, playing with the green dates given to her by Professor Wang in her hands.

After the pleasantries, Li Jun quickly got to the point. "Professor Yuan, you know, the number of survivors on Earth is dwindling every day. We're desperate to develop a potion that can kill the zombie virus and save everyone! At the very least, we can develop a potion that can boost the strength of the evolved humans and reduce the losses among the survivors. This is related to the continuation of our entire human race and is the most important thing at this moment."

Professor Yuan nodded repeatedly.

"As you can see, we have comprehensive experimental equipment and a wealth of talented individuals here, making us ideal for research. My initial plan is to gather all the talent we can, and work together to develop the most effective treatment for the zombie virus and save the people from disaster."

Zhao Lexi's blood boiled with excitement, and she stretched out both hands to applaud.

Professor Yuan said indifferently, "Now what? What are you going to do?"

Li Jun pulled out a man in his thirties from behind him. "This is Li Yafei, the director of another laboratory. He'll be your deputy from now on, mainly supporting your work! Now, you are the general director of another laboratory! Together with Lao Yuan and me, we will become the saviors of humanity!"

There was no trace of resentment on Li Yafei's face, and his eyes were even full of eagerness.

Professor Yuan rolled his eyes, and his good impression disappeared instantly: "Not interested."

Li Jun smiled slightly: "Professor Yuan, you should think about it carefully!"

"First, there's no cure for the zombie virus. If there were, it wouldn't just kill the zombies, it would kill us too. All the naturally evolved humans and those evolved with pharmaceuticals would die together! Because it's the zombie virus that's driving our evolution. It's now fused with our very bones and blood. If it dies, we die too. Secondly, having too many people is useless. No matter how much waste there is, it's still waste. Quantitative change won't lead to qualitative change. Finally, I'm living well at the Beicang base and don't want to move. It might affect my experimental inspiration."

From sarcasm to rejection, Professor Yuan did it all in one go.

Li Jun's smile faded, and he frowned, "Professor Yuan, I'm treating you with courtesy. Don't refuse my toast and then drink a forfeit."

Professor Yuan said stubbornly, "What do you want to do? Kill me!"

Li Qiong was terrified and kept pulling at Professor Yuan's clothes: Teacher, we are on someone else's territory now, we can't speak so directly, what if we really can't leave!

Zhao Lexi was eager to try, wondering if Li Jun would be so angry that he would attack her directly and expose his strength.

Professor Wang looked embarrassed, looking left and right, not knowing which side to speak for.

Li Jun laughed in anger. "How could the professor think of me like that? We are all thinking about the future of the survivors, and we have no selfish motives. I have someone prepare a place for the professor to rest. If you are tired, go and rest. Then you can do whatever you need to do next! I have something else to do, so I won't disturb you anymore."

After saying that, Li Jun turned and left.

Before leaving, he said to Li Yafei, "Prepare more fruit for the professors, so that no one will say we don't know how to entertain guests."

Soon, the two men hurried away with the people around them, leaving only a middle-aged man with a square face standing at the door, looking at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, as if he was in a trance.

This is a fourth-level evolved person with good strength. It seems that Li Jun is determined not to let Professor Yuan leave.
