Chapter 124 – Research Direction

“Research?”

Aseries of notifications suddenly popped up, startling Fang Heng.

He read the notifications again in detail.

This was the first time Fang Heng had heard of such a thing.

‘The official player forums set up by the federation had never shown any relevant information.

“It’s probably the hidden special settings of the game again.”

That made sense.

Thinking about it carefully, it would be great if ordinary players could live peacefully in the game.

Even if they built a shelter, they would not spend a lot of money to build a research laboratory, let alone recruit rare researchers.

Fang Heng felt that only a super-large organization like the federation had the capital to research the shelter’s research layout.

While he was thinking, Fang Heng opened up the shelter’s detailed list and began to search.

“So many…”

The rows and rows of refreshing lists surprised Fang Heng.

‘There was such an operation?!

[Basic scientific research direction]

Basic scientific research direction 1: Material architecture enhancement (Level 0).

Basic scientific research direction 2: Zombie vulnerability analysis (Level 0).

Basic scientific research direction 3: Tool efficiency improvement (Level 0).

Basic scientific research direction 4: High-efficiency weapon development (Level 0).

Basic scientific research direction 5: T-virus research (Level 0).

[Special research direction]

Special research direction 1: Advanced zombie genetic modification potion research (this research project is provided by $+ researcher Qiu Yaokang).

Current research progress: 33.1% (inherited from researcher Qiu Yaokang).

Special research direction 2: Tier 1 mutated zombie-poisonous zombie poisonous gas research (this research project is provided by S+ researcher Qiu Yaohui).

Current research progress: 56.9% (inherited from researcher Qiu Yaokang).

Special research direction 3: Meteorite Company-biological weapon project in-depth research (this research project is triggered by special item-Erita live sample).

Special research direction 4: Corpse vine and parasitic body research (this research project is triggered by a special item-modified living corpse vine).

Special research direction 5: Licker in-depth research and cultivation (this research project is provided by S- researcher Li Bo).

Current research progress: 3% (inherited from researcher Li Bo).

Special research direction 6: SSS-level talent skill zombie clone-Licker transformation project (this research project is triggered by researcher Qiu Yaokang, Li Bo and player Fang Heng).

“So many…”

Fang Heng carefully read through the research notes.

He had a general idea.

Basic research projects should be aimed at shelters. After the research was completed, the results would most likely have a positive effect on shelters.

As for special research directions, they were all triggered by special characters, special events and special items.

Fang Heng felt that the biggest improvement to his current strength was research direction 6.

Transforming his zombie clone into a Licker!

Greatly improving his combat strength!

Fang Heng opened the details of special research 6 to check.

Research: SSS-level talent skill zombie clone-Licker transformation project.

Research level: SSS.

Research difficulty: SSS (extremely difficult research, almost impossible to complete based on current shelter scientific research ability).

Current research difficulties: Lack of large-scale experimental hardware conditions, lack of researchers, lack of T-virus infection samples, lack of pre-Licker related research, lack of high-level materials, lack of pre-T-virus related research.

Estimated completion time: 7-8 years.

(Description: Solving the current difficulties can greatly improve research efficiency and shorten research time.)

7-8 years?

That’s a little too long!

Fang Heng was a little speechless for a moment.

“Fang Heng, you’ve seen the current situation. It’s undoubtedly a waste of time to directly study the Licker modification.”

Qiu Yaokang gave his opinion.

“I think that this research project can only be started after we find the modified T-virus sample used to infect the Licker. Only then will there be a need for research.”

“alright, you’re right.”

Fang Heng gave up.

He would need to slow down the Licker modification project.

Thinking back, he would head to Pine City in five days. That was one of the branches of the Meteorite Company.

Maybe he could find the modified T-virus sample there.

“Oh right, I remember you wanted to research poisonous zombies, right?”

“Yes, it’s very important for us humans to survive the apocalypse.”

Qiu Yaokang nodded, showing some worry on his face. “I’m worried about the situation in the infected zone.”

“During this period, we’ll start with the research on the poisonous zombies. I’ll start rebuilding and repairing the laboratory. If you have any problems, come to me. You can ask Liao Bufan for basic materials. The shelter will try its best to meet your needs.”

“Okay.”

Qiu Yaokang nodded. He looked as if this should be the way it was.

[Hint: You have chosen the current research direction of the shelter’s experimental team: Tier 1 mutated zombie-research on the poisonous zombie poisonous gas.]

[Hint: Your friendship with Qiu Yaokang has slightly increased.)

[Hint: Qiu Yaokang’s loyalty has increased to 95.]

“The biggest problem now is that many of the equipment left behind by the Meteorite Company in the secret laboratory has been seriously damaged, which has greatly reduced our research efficiency. These equipment need manual maintenance.”

“It would be best if you can find me an outstanding maintenance mechanic.”

“But given the current conditions of the apocalypse outside, I reckon that you won’t be able to find him in a short period…”

Fang Heng nodded and thought to himself, as expected of an $+ NPC.

He had thought through the problem very thoroughly and knew that it was useless to ask for something that he couldn’t do.

Qiu Yaokang took out a rusty wrench from his pocket.

“Ineed you to provide me with some skill books related to the maintenance of experimental props and mechanical maintenance books that I can barely use.”

Fang Heng: ???

Qiu Yaokang explained, “What I mean is, I can try to learn the maintenance of experimental instruments on my own.”

This…

Fang Heng could not help but open his mouth.

What a guy!

Fang Heng was impressed!

An S+ level boss was amazing. To pursue scientific research, he even started to learn mechanical maintenance skills on his own…

“Alright, I’ll go to the shop and ask Vettel. He might have some related skill books for sale there.”

The price of skill books related to mechanical maintenance was not high.

However, they were relatively rare. If the apocalypse merchant camp did not sell them, he could only look for them on the players’ forums.

Ever since the server transfer function had begun, the trading channel between players had gradually opened, and many good items had appeared.

“Tl be waiting for your good news.”

“Right, I don’t need this thing.”

Qiu Yaokang took out a book from his backpack and threw it to Fang Heng.

“What’s this?”

Fang Heng took the book.

“Skill book?!”

[Hint: Your relationship with Qiu Yaokang has reached a critical level. You have received Qiu Yaokang’s gift.)

(Hint: You have received skill book: Butcher’s teaching -bleeding. ].

{Item: Butcher’s teaching-bleeding.]

Type: Skill book (player has not mastered this skill).

Level: B.

Skill description 1: When using a specific weapon (such as a knife, sword, spear and other weapons with sharp blades) to deal damage to a player, there is a chance to cause a bleeding effect (this bleeding effect only works on the player).

Skill description 2: Every time a skill is upgraded, there is an additional increase in the probability of triggering and causing bleeding damage. This skill can be upgraded up to Level 30 (bleeding damage and probability are related to the basic attributes of both parties.

Fang Heng looked at it for a long time before he came back to his senses.

He turned around and looked at Qiu Yaokang.

It was a B-level skill book!

There was such a benefit to the increase in favorability?
