133: I can give you super serum

“Brother, are you a Superpower User?” The burly man, seeing Tian Ming’s prowess, was already convinced that the young man before him must be a Superpower User.

However, Tian Ming shook his head and said, “No, I haven’t injected the Super Serum, nor am I the Superpower User you mentioned.”

The burly man paused slightly, took half a step back, and asked cautiously, “Then who are you?”

Tian Ming smiled faintly and retorted, “I saved you, and yet you ask so many questions. Who are you? Why are you so clear about the official Super Soldier Project?”

The man said with a hint of apology, “Sorry, little brother, I am the captain of the Dragon Flame Squad. My name is Captain Xu Changsheng, and I am a Five-level Ability User.”

“My name is Lu Tianming, and I am not within the Ability Users’ ranking sequence.”

Captain Xu Changsheng was stunned. This guy was clearly so strong, yet he didn’t know his Ability User level?

Tian Ming said calmly, “Seeing that you have quite a few Ability Users, I have a Shelter outside the city. Why don’t you come with me?”

“This…” Captain Xu Changsheng hadn’t expected Tian Ming to make such a request.

“Sorry, we have our own Shelter, and I’m afraid we can’t go with you, little brother. However, we still have to thank you for saving our lives. If you don’t mind, you can come to our Shelter for a short visit.” Captain Xu Changsheng refused Tian Ming’s request and did not agree to go with him.

Tian Ming said with some displeasure, “Since you’re unwilling to come with me, then I really shouldn’t have saved you.”

Captain Xu Changsheng’s expression changed. He was afraid Tian Ming would cause trouble. He had already witnessed Tian Ming’s strength. His entire squad wouldn’t be enough to even fill his teeth.

Captain Xu Changsheng quickly said, “Little brother, come to our Shelter, and we will give you a generous reward to thank you for saving our lives.”

“What kind of reward? Tell me.” Tian Ming spread his palm, and a ball of air condensed in his hand. As the charges peeled away, the ball of air continuously flickered with tiny electric arcs.

Tian Ming always liked to use both threats and inducements. Although this action was just casual, Captain Xu Changsheng felt his scalp tingle.

“Super Serum, little brother. If you have a Shelter, you must be short of Ability Users. We have Super Serum used for the Super Soldier Project there. I can give you some. This Super Serum can evolve ordinary people into Ability Users, though the probability is a bit low, about one percent success rate for Five-level Ability User awakening.” Captain Xu Changsheng quickly said.

Tian Ming was somewhat surprised to hear this. He hadn’t expected the Shelter Captain Xu Changsheng was in to have something like Super Serum. Meng Xian had told him that producing Super Serum required viruses to release toxicity, and experimental subjects that had already become zombies could not produce Super Serum.

In other words, Captain Xu Changsheng’s Shelter base possessed reliable experimental samples. Even Hua Xin Group, which mass-produced Super Serum, didn’t have such samples. What kind of existence was the base Captain Xu Changsheng was in then?

To be fair, such a reward did tempt Tian Ming. A one percent success rate for Five-level Ability User awakening was actually not too low.

“Your Shelter base actually has samples? You’re not trying to trick me, are you?” Tian Ming asked, half-believing, half-doubting.

“Little brother, I’ll tell you the truth. This Super Soldier Project, besides ordinary citizens not knowing about it, many scientific research institutions are aware of its existence. Because too much is involved, it hasn’t been made public.”

Captain Xu Changsheng carefully chose his words and continued, “However, civilians also participated in this project. Our base has a top professor from Qiyu University’s biology Laboratory. His latest achievement is obtaining Super Serum by culturing immune cells in vitro to combat viruses, after several iterations. It’s just slightly inferior to the Super Serum from the Super Soldier Project.”

“Wait!” Tian Ming suddenly interrupted Captain Xu Changsheng. The value of this professor was too great for Tian Ming. Such a person must be recruited to his Shelter.

Tian Ming pondered, glanced at Captain Xu Changsheng, and said, “Alright, I’ll go to your base with you, but don’t try any tricks.”

“I wouldn’t dare, I wouldn’t dare.” Captain Xu Changsheng quickly said.

“You lead the way, and I’ll follow behind. I’ll go get my hovercar first.”

Captain Xu Changsheng nodded and said, “Okay, no problem.”

Tian Ming took Shen Yuan back to the top floor of the mall, and the two re-entered the car. While Tian Ming was talking to Captain Xu Changsheng, she remained silent, observing that guy.

Tian Ming took out a small radio from under the seat cushion and said to Shen Yuan, “Send a message to Meng Xian, tell him that we might be delayed for some time, and ask him to manage the Shelter well. If there’s any trouble, punish severely.”

“Okay, I’ll send the message right away.” Shen Yuan knew that Tian Ming was very concerned about the Shelter, so she quickly sent the message diligently.

Tian Ming nodded, and the hovercar soared into the sky, quickly catching up with the Dragon Flame Squad’s vehicles ahead.

“Boss, I feel like Captain Xu Changsheng is not right, and since their base can develop Super Serum, the base’s own strength is probably not weaker than Hua Xin Group.” Shen Yuan said with some concern.

“Hmm, I noticed that too. This Dragon Flame Squad doesn’t seem to be out collecting supplies. Look at their cars; each one has reinforced steel plates. Such cars can’t carry much.” Tian Ming said calmly.

“This, could it be a trap? If we go to their territory, and they suddenly turn hostile, what should we do?”

A hint of disdain appeared at the corner of Tian Ming’s mouth, and he said, “If they dare to turn hostile, I’ll tear down their base.”

Shen Yuan chuckled and said, “Hehe… Boss, you’re amazing!”

“Of course. Don’t worry, this time, we’ll recruit that scientific research team capable of producing Super Serum to our Shelter.” Tian Ming said with a smile.

After leaving the city, Captain Xu Changsheng’s Dragon Flame Squad entered a side road. After driving for some time, they stopped in a desolate valley.

The snow in the valley wasn’t very deep; it seemed to have been cleared. The journey had taken about two hours.

When the car door opened, Tian Ming and Shen Yuan followed Captain Xu Changsheng on foot for about ten minutes, arriving at the center of the valley, where a cave-like Shelter appeared before them.

“Is this your base?” Tian Ming asked.

Captain Xu Changsheng nodded and said, “That’s right. This place was originally a military base with several Laboratories inside. After the zombie crisis, it was used as a temporary Resettlement Point, and now it has become a private base.”

Tian Ming nodded slightly, not pressing further. In the Apocalypse, there were no rules, so it wasn’t strange for it to become a private base.
