Research laboratories within military bases

Wu Boxue snorted coldly, his attitude becoming even more stubborn.

As soon as the words "escort the guests" left his mouth, Sun Rong understood and didn't hesitate, not giving Antoine the chance to speak.

With the cooperation of his subordinates, Antoine and the other envoys were forcibly escorted out of the reception room.

In just a few seconds, the envoys who had just arrived in the reception room were shown the door.

Throughout the entire process, many diplomats didn't even have the opportunity to speak.

They didn't expect that after traveling such a long distance, they would only witness a verbal dispute!

But looking at Wu Boxue's stern demeanor, with impatience emanating from his eyes, all the envoys dared to be angry but dared not speak out.

They were afraid that Wu Boxue, who was already overwhelmed with the disasters in Wu Country, would unleash all his fury on them.

They could only cast hateful glances at Antoine.

If it weren't for Antoine angering Wu Boxue, they wouldn't have returned empty-handed.

They wouldn't have obtained any information about the zombies at all!

"What are you staring at? If you have the guts, go inside and stare at Wu Boxue!"

Antoine didn't dare to be too presumptuous with Wu Boxue, but he didn't take these envoys from various countries seriously.

Therefore, he took out all the frustration he had suffered from Wu Boxue and vented it on these envoys.

As Antoine's words fell, the envoys from various countries who were originally being escorted away all stopped in their tracks.

The atmosphere suddenly became subtle.

Seeing this, Sun Rong ignored it and gave a nod to the subordinates next to the envoys, retreating at the first opportunity.

"Slap!"

The next second, a fierce woman strode up to Antoine and decisively slapped him in the face.

"You better not fall into the hands of my Italy country, or I'll make your life a living hell!"

The fierce woman glared at Antoine fiercely and said this without caring about his reaction, then strode away.

Under everyone's gaze, she boarded the special plane that had brought her and flew away from Wu Country.

As for the other envoys, they merely snorted in dissatisfaction, quickly boarded their special planes, and returned to their respective countries to report the situation.

After all, the strength of the White Country was there, and they didn't want to bring disaster to their countries because of Antoine.

...

Inside the reception room.

Wu Boxue watched as the envoys were escorted away, and the sternness and domineering aura on his face disappeared, replaced by exhaustion and worry.

His once straight body now bent slightly as he walked towards the door of the reception room.

The reason why Wu Boxue so decisively dismissed the envoys was that he had received three pieces of news on his way here.

First, Li Changqing had successfully captured a live zombie.

Second, the already discovered Zombie King, the second zombie with intelligence, had emerged.

Third, the Zombie King's whereabouts had been exposed.

These three pieces of news made him eager to go and see for himself.

"President, the Sand Country diplomat Kathy has arrived and brought the Tsar's condolences."

As Wu Boxue approached the entrance of the reception room, Sun Rong, who had just left, returned with a blonde-haired, blue-eyed woman.

The woman was none other than Kathy, the envoy from the Sand Country.

"Your Excellency, you must be exhausted!"

Seeing Wu Boxue's haggard face, Kathy quickly stepped forward to support him.

Wu Boxue looked at the considerate Kathy and felt a sense of relief on his weary face.

"Wu and Sand Countries are neighbors with deep friendships. I won't keep anything from the Sand Country about this matter."

"I also understand the purpose of the Tsar sending you here. Let's go and take a look together."

Under Wu Boxue's guidance, Kathy boarded a special car and headed straight to the Wudu Military Base.

Inside the base, police personnel were busy packing various military supplies into boxes and loading them onto helicopters.

Large trucks drove into the base, unloading crates of food and water.

All were easily storable foods like compressed biscuits, beef jerky, and bread.

As soon as the food and water were unloaded, personnel immediately packed and sealed them, following the crates of military supplies onto the helicopters.

"Your Excellency, what is this?"

Kathy watched the scene with confusion.

"This zombie disaster is far more dangerous than we have seen. If we are not careful, it could truly evolve into a global crisis."

"Sealing off the fifteen cities was a last resort, but it's also the beginning of our protracted battle against the zombies."

"All of this is support supplies being sent to the fifteen cities."

Wu Boxue glanced at the busy police personnel, his tone slightly helpless as he answered Kathy's inquiry without any reservation.

Without further ado, Wu Boxue led Kathy straight to the depths of the base.

After numerous rigorous identity verifications, the two arrived at their destination—the research room.

Outside the research room, heavily armed guards stood watch.

"President, the Chief and Dr. Liu Xiamu are waiting for you inside."

The guard commander greeted Wu Boxue as soon as he saw him.

After facial recognition and identity verification, the door to the research room slowly opened.

The commander respectfully gestured for them to enter.

Wu Boxue strode into the research room.

Kathy, witnessing the tight security here, was filled with curiosity and followed closely behind Wu Boxue into the room.

As the two entered, the door to the research room slowly closed behind them.

Roar—

As soon as they entered the research room, they heard a deafening roar from a zombie chained inside an iron cage.

The zombie's expression was ferocious, its limestone-colored eyes lifeless, drool constantly dripping from its mouth. As it struggled, the chains rattled with a "clang clang" sound.

Beside the cage, several simple devices were set up.

Liu Xiamu sat in front of the devices, intently observing something.

Li Changqing stood beside Liu Xiamu, watching silently, barely daring to breathe.

Apart from the two of them, there was no one else in the vast research room.

This research room was temporarily decided upon by Wu Boxue and Liu Xiamu after discussion.

Therefore, relevant personnel and equipment were still on their way.

After today, this research room would also become a key protected location in Wu Country.

Wu Boxue walked straight to the iron cage containing the zombie and observed it carefully.

The zombie's appearance was far more ferocious and terrifying than in the videos.

 Upon closer observation, aside from their limestone-colored eyes, paper-white skin, sharp fingers, and pointed fangs, their overall appearance is indistinguishable from that of humans.

If it weren't for their brutal aggressiveness and destructive capabilities, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them sick individuals.

Yet, it is this very mutated species that has brought about a potential apocalyptic disaster to the Wu Kingdom.

Their strength and abilities have shattered everyone's perceptions and beliefs, akin to a science fiction movie brought to life.

Upon seeing Wu Boxue's arrival, Liu Xiamu and Li Changqing hurried over.

"President, I've conducted a preliminary analysis of the zombie's blood and genes, but due to insufficient equipment, there are no outstanding results."

"However, one thing is certain: there exists an unknown virus in the zombie's blood, and it is this virus that alters the human body's structure and cells, causing mutation."

"To conduct further research, we must wait for the arrival of relevant personnel and equipment."

Seeing Kathy obediently following behind Wu Boxue without any sign of suspicion from him, Liu Xiamu didn't hesitate to reveal what he knew.

As he spoke, Liu Xiamu led Wu Boxue to a desk, opened a notebook, and played a video.

This video captured the entire process of Li Changqing capturing the zombie.
