The World Is Ending And I Am Surrounded By Female Zombies

143 A Suspicious Individual

The mention of nuclear power worried Wang Ran a little.

The Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant, the largest nuclear power plant in China, was located in J-city.

Without any staff manning the station, without any regular maintenance…

“Why? Are you worried about the nuclear power plant?”

Liu Shiyao smiled.

“Don’t worry, it had been built with all that in mind.

“From the conception of the Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant, to its completion, three nuclear power plant accidents happened in the world.

“So, along the way, adjustments were constantly being made. Safety measures and an auto shutdown feature were put in place,”

Liu Shiyao explained.

“Being unmanned is one thing, being flooded by zombies is another…”

Wang Ran said, after thinking for a while.

A nuclear power plant of this level would definitely be covered by a set of countermeasures.

However, if zombies or fools entered the base and set things off…

Liu Shiyao was stunned. That was true…

As the saying went, the humans have always been the most unstable factor in any well-oiled structure.

As long as there were no human errors, nuclear power plants would be relatively safe.

In the current environment, humans had long flung themselves out of control!

They were turning into zombies!

“The Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant is a second-generation nuclear power plant. Generally speaking, when the nuclear power plant encounters an external power outage, emergency diesel engines would kick in, long enough for it to shut down.

“Within seven days, if there is no external interference, the reactor will automatically shut down and cool down.

“If zombies are involved… it does become concerning.”

Liu Shiyao frowned.

If there was a problem with a nuclear power plant, dozens of kilometers around would be affected by radiation.

Of course, Wang Ran’s base was two hundred kilometers away, so it would not be directly affected. However, the survivors near J-city would suffer.

“The electricity in N-city just only went out. I think it’s the same in J-city.

“According to what you said, the nuclear power plant should be shutting within a few days.”

“It looks like J-city is in danger now!

“Alright, let’s finish our aim for this trip first.

“We’ll talk about the nuclear power plant later,”

Wang Ran said decisively.

There was no point in being conflicted now, so they had to get to work.

Ding! Ding!

The elevator door opened.

There was a long passageway outside the elevator.

“This is the disinfection chamber, but I don’t know if it’s still in operation.”

Liu Shiyao explained.

After the three of them entered the tunnel, the pipe puffed out nothing but air after two simple puffs of disinfectant.

It seemed that with no one maintaining it, facilities were falling into disrepair.

Wang Ran opened the door at the end of the corridor and entered the basement.

This floor was mainly the living and resting area.

Wang Ran did not smell any blood.

There might be some survivors on this floor.

Sure enough, the three of them had only taken a few steps before they met a middle-aged man who had just come out of the pantry.

When the man saw the three of them, he froze.

He hadn’t seen a living person for a week, and the coffee in his hand spilled all over the ground.

“You guys …

“Argh! You’re Researcher Liu!

“Long time no see!”

The man was very excited.

“Deputy Director Qian!

“I didn’t expect you to still be alive. That’s great!

“Where are the others?”

Liu Shiyao asked.

“The others…

“Sigh, I’m the only human here now, anyway.

“How is it looking outside?”

“I wanted to go out and take a look a few days ago, but I was so scared that I turned back.”

Deputy Director Qian sighed.

“The situation outside is terrible.

“Our situation in the south is more serious than it is in the north.

“If it wasn’t for the appearance of Awakened Humans, the situation might have been even worse.”

Liu Shiyao replied.

“Ah, that’s right. You took the risk to come here in such an environment. It must be something important, right?”

Deputy Director Qian asked.

“Hm…

“Actually, I wanted to take some experimental equipment and reagents back for research.

“I don’t know if it’s convenient.”

Liu Shiyao asked awkwardly.

Originally, she thought that since everyone here had died, it wouldn’t be a big deal for her to sweep the area.

Now that the Deputy Director was still alive, it was a little awkward.

“Hey, no problem.

“As long as you can transport them, you can have them.

“But I have to remind you this…

“Other than this floor, the rest of the area below has been occupied by those things.”

Deputy Director Qian was helpless.

He was very well aware of Liu Shiyao’s ability. Since she was here for equipment, she must have some important research to conduct.

Unfortunately, the lab was full of zombies, and he couldn’t help, even if he wanted to.

“Oh, zombies won’t be a problem.”

Liu Shiyao looked at Wang Ran, who was beside her.

With such a brave man by her side, zombies were nothing.

“Actually… Not all of them are zombies…

“As you know, we study biology here.

“There are quite a few animals down there…”

Deputy Director Qian shrugged his shoulders.

At this point, Liu Shiyao and Wang Ran both understood that there were not only zombies down there, but also zombie animals…

“To be honest, when the virus broke out, many of my colleagues were bitten by zombie dogs, zombie monkeys, and other animals.

“They’re not only agile, but they’re also elusive. Sigh…

“Director Li is down there. He decisively chose to block the way up and sacrificed himself to prevent the zombies from reaching this floor.”

Deputy Director Qian revealed a trace of sadness.

“They’re just zombie animals. They’re no different from human zombies.

“Let’s go. Let’s end this quickly,”

Wang Ran said indifferently.

He felt that there was something wrong with this Deputy Director Qian.

Everyone in the Research Institute was dead, and he was the only one still alive. This was worthy of Wang Ran’s suspicion.

Of course, Wang Ran only had his suspicions. He could not act on them.

Wang Ran, who had absolute strength, was not worried that Deputy Director Qian would play any tricks.

“Alright, since you’re so determined to go down, I won’t stop you.”

“Let me open the door for you. Researcher Liu, I don’t think your card has enough authority.

Deputy Director Qian walked to the internal elevator and swiped his card.

The elevator rose slowly.

It was an elevator with transparent walls.

He could see that there were a few bloody palm prints and many bloody marks on the transparent glass, which demonstrated just how terrible the situation was on the lower floors.

But luckily, no zombies followed them up the elevator.

“I’m just a weak old man, so I won’t be accompanying you.

“Good luck.”

Deputy Director Qian took a sip of the remaining coffee in his cup.

Wang Ran smiled and walked into the elevator.

There must be something wrong with this Deputy Director Qian.

Was he drinking coffee to cover up his grin? Hehe…
