The post-apocalyptic world has a space full of supplies.

Chapter 167 Beijing Research Institute (9)

Because of Lin Yun's special condition, the three of them stopped chatting. Ji Lang also temporarily put aside the issue of Yang Xiao and Lu Yuan's presence here and just stared at Lin Yun in the medical machine.

The countdown on the machine ticked away second by second. When the countdown reached one hour, Lin Yun began a new round of struggle. Lu Yuan methodically put a new bottle of antidote into the medical machine, but this time the antidote was clearly less effective than before.

Lin Yun struggled for more than ten minutes before gradually calming down. His face also changed from deathly pale to bluish-purple, looking like he had entered a stable state after being turned into a zombie. Lu Yuan was a little worried, afraid that Lin Yun would turn into a zombie tearing apart medical machine the next second and come out to wreak havoc.

"What do we do now?" Yang Xiao's face turned pale when he saw Lin Yun in the medical machine. He was just as scared as Lu Yuan. This was Captain Lin Yun! Unlike Du Wenqing before, Lin Xiao had spent more time with Lin Yun and was his partner all the way.

"I don't know." Ji Lang stared blankly at the medical machine. He had seen many zombies, and many of his comrades had become zombies, but this time Lin Yun had taken every wound for him. What was Lin Yun thinking at that time?

Just as the three were at their wits' end, the medical machine sounded its alarm again, this time with an extremely rapid frequency, as if the machine was about to explode at any moment. Lin Yun inside the medical machine also began to struggle again, his hands pounding on the canopy, his tightly closed eyes seemingly about to open.

"Never mind!" Lu Yuan couldn't bear to see Lin Yun like this. After saying that, he put all the antidotes into the medical machine's medicine tank, at least that way he could gamble one last time. The medicine tank could hold three bottles at a time, so he put them in three bottles at a time, and after they were used up, he would switch to the next set, until all the antidotes he took out from the ground were empty bottles.

"Lu Xiaoyuan, what are you doing!" Yang Xiao realized what was happening, but it was too late to stop him.

Ji Lang was more rational than Yang Xiao; he pulled Yang Xiao back from lunging forward. Lin Yun was already in this state, and Lu Yuan was truly treating it as a last resort. In any case, if Lin Yun really did turn into a zombie, they would only have the option of losing this friend.

Fortunately, some kind of antidote worked, and Lin Yun calmed down in the medical machine. Lu Yuan and the other two couldn't help but swallow hard when they saw this.

Looking back now, it was really too dangerous. Lu Yuan only had one medical machine, which he couldn't afford to use. Lin Yun was already a level four ability user. If he turned into a zombie and broke out of the medical machine, at least one of the three of them would be lost.

"Damn it, Lu Xiaoyuan, what did I tell you? Don't do anything so exciting." Yang Xiao, having come to his senses, realized what they had just experienced and warned Lu Yuan again.

"I..." Just as Lu Yuan was about to explain, the entire wall of the office suite facing the corridor began to shake violently. They encountered zombies ramming into the wall again.

"Here we go again!" Yang Xiao and Lu Yuan, who had experience with this, knew that the wall could only hold for ten minutes at most. "What do we do? The helicopter can't fit such a large medical machine, can it?"

"Let me try to get the entire medical machine onto the starship first," Lu Yuan said, before the system interrupted him.

"Dr. Lu, the doctor in the medical unit cannot enter the starship without high-level authorization."

"Damn it, who cares about permissions at a time like this!" If the other party wasn't a system, and if the physical form wasn't just the size of a finger joint, Yang Xiao would have wanted to punch them right then and there.

"This is stipulated by the rules of authority, and I have no right to change it," the system voice sounded again.

"Who is speaking?" Ji Lang looked around and could only confirm that the voice was coming from Lu Yuan's direction, but Lu Yuan was not speaking, and it was not Lu Yuan's voice.

"It's a system from my starship." As Lu Yuan explained, the wall in front of them was already cracked by the zombies outside.

"Do you have military transport planes in your space?" Ji Lang asked.

"Let me see." Lu Yuan quickly located the military transport plane in the space using the keywords. A second before the wall broke open, the three of them and the medical drone successfully teleported to the military transport plane circling above the research institute.

"Can we stop having to make these kinds of extreme escapes every time?" Once on the transport plane, all three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and Yang Xiao collapsed on the ground, panting heavily.

"Then next time, shall we face off head-on?" Lu Yuan joined Yang Xiao in making a large "X" shape on the ground of the transport plane, and smiled.

"I advise you not to." Ji Lang knew that Lu Yuan had many means of transportation, but they had never tried driving without a driver before, so the moment he teleported over, he went to the driver's seat.

"Don't worry, Lu Xiaoyuan can now set up the operation status in the space. That's how we flew over from the South China base." Yang Xiao looked up at Ji Lang, then fell back to the ground.

The three of them waited quietly, none of them speaking, but they all understood that they were waiting for the last twenty minutes or so of the medical machine's countdown.

"Beep...beep...beep..." As the countdown entered its final ten minutes, the medical machine began to beep rhythmically.

Lu Yuan and Yang Xiao immediately got up and went over to take a look. Lin Yun's face inside the medical machine was no longer purplish-blue, but it hadn't regained its color. His hands had some tiny cuts on his fingertips from scratching around inside. Lu Yuan noticed that some of the bloodstains on these cuts were black, some were brown, and some were blood red.

“Yang Xiao, look…” Lu Yuan pointed to a spot of red blood on Lin Yun’s finger. The wound was not small. The blood that should have flowed out earlier was black, but now it was slowly seeping out red blood.

"We did it! We did it! Team Leader Lin is alright now!" Yang Xiao also saw the red blood droplet and excitedly hugged Lu Yuan, shouting.

Hearing their conversation, Ji Lang came over from the driver's seat and saw that Lin Yun's face was no longer purple in the medical machine. He also found the red blood seeping from Lin Yun's fingertips and noticed that several of Lin Yun's wounds were slowly healing.

"Incredible." Ji Lang had seen modern medical machines before. Ordinary medical machines could simply heal superficial wounds. For more serious lacerations or ruptures, debridement and initial suturing were usually required before the patient could be placed in the medical machine. Then, in the sterile environment of the medical machine, the patient would ingest nutrient solution and slowly heal over a certain period of time.

The wounds that Lin Yun had previously suffered from being torn apart by zombies would take at least two or three days to heal after being stitched up and placed in a medical machine. However, Lu Yuan's medical machine was able to heal a deep wound that exposed bone in just a few minutes.

"This is the high technology of the interstellar era." Having witnessed several high-tech gadgets of the interstellar era, Yang Xiao now had something to show off.

"Phew, it's good that Captain Lin is alright..." Lu Yuan looked at Lin Yun's wounds, which were gradually healing, and guessed that he had stopped turning into a zombie and had begun to recover. This was something they had never dared to imagine before.
