Chu Haiyang's sudden frenzy puzzled everyone.

Seeing that he was getting more and more crazy, and smashing things in the meeting room with his hands, everyone frowned in confusion, but no one stepped forward to persuade him to stop.

Wooden chairs, vases, teapots, hanging paintings...Except for the square table and the wooden chairs on which everyone was sitting, all the decorations within sight had basically turned into fragments and were piled up at Chu Haiyang's feet.

In just over ten minutes, the originally magnificent conference room became a mess, but Chu Haiyang did not show any restraint.

"Ah!!! Let me out!!!"

He roared, looking even less rational than 'Idiot'.

"Is he crazy?" someone whispered to the person next to him.

"No, I don't know... mania, maybe?" another person asked uncertainly.

"What did you say?!" Chu Haiyang's scarlet eyes suddenly looked at the two people who were whispering, "What did you say to me?! Are you looking for death?!"

Two of them: "..." It feels like being caught by a colleague while slacking off at work and secretly saying bad things about a colleague.

It's not that I'm afraid of him, it's just that he seems a bit crazy and I don't really want to argue with him.

Everyone present here is an important figure in each base. They all have means of self-protection and have seen some of the world.

Although no one knew the reason for Chu Haiyang's sudden madness, most people just wanted to watch the fun.

"Boss."

Just as Qin Miao was watching the fun with great interest, a chill passed through her mind and the sound of Chen Dong's voice rang faintly in her ears.

"Hmm?" Qin Miao responded and looked at Chen Dong'er beside her.

Chen Dong'er looked serious, but he did not speak directly. Instead, he continued to use the "voice transmission" to say: "Boss, looking at Chu Haiyang's appearance... it should be the side effect of swallowing the crystal core."

"Swallow the crystal core?" Qin Miao's expression also became a little serious, "Are you sure?"

"Yes." Chen Dong'er nodded, "Are you planning to intervene?"

The crystal core contains zombie toxins. If the crystal core is swallowed directly without being extracted and purified, it can provide some energy for upgrading superpowers, but the toxins cannot be excreted naturally from the body. Once accumulated to a certain amount in the body, it will make people lose control of themselves and fall into mania for a period of time.

People who fall into mania will temporarily lose most of their rationality and show a strong desire for destruction. After the mania, there will be a period of weakness; if they continue to swallow crystal cores and accumulate toxins in this situation, there is a risk of becoming a zombie.

This is how the "Open Source Base" was destroyed. Although various forces fanned the flames, people are human after all. So many people died because of this. Even if Chen Dong'er appeared to be nonchalant on the surface, it was impossible for him not to care in his heart.

After joining the "Genesis Base", when he had nothing to do, Chen Dong'er went to the base's scientific research building many times to inquire about relevant research information, and also went to Xu Jiaqian for advice.

Therefore, at this time, he was able to first determine the reason based on Chu Haiyang's reaction, warn Qin Miao and ask what to do next.

Qin Miao frowned, and when she looked at Chu Haiyang again, her mood was completely different from before.

She could watch a mentally ill person go crazy with interest because after the devastation of the apocalypse, few people were completely normal.

Psychological problems are common, and even she herself is sometimes possessed by ghosts. So when someone goes crazy, she just treats it as a joke.

However, becoming manic due to the accumulation of nuclear poison from swallowing crystal cores is another matter.

This is not something that can be turned into entertainment or lightly glossed over as if it has nothing to do with you.

In this uncertain and chaotic end times, it is natural for people with special abilities to want to become stronger.

The act of swallowing crystal cores has been clearly banned by all major bases, but there are still people who take the risk.

Was it greed? Was it ignorance? Or was it being deceived?

These superficial reasons are not very important. What is important is that the core of this behavior is that one is forced to do so.

They are controlled by the danger and anxiety of the end of the world, and are forced to resort to such dangerous means to become stronger.

So, almost without hesitation, Qin Miao stood up, leaped over the square table at almost flashing speed and came in front of Chu Haiyang.

"you......"

Chu Haiyang narrowed his cloudy eyes, but before he could say anything, Qin Miao pinched his cheeks tightly.

It was clearly such a thin person, and it was clearly such a slender hand, but it was like an iron clamp that controlled his entire head, making him unable to move at all.

Qin Miao moved quickly. In the blink of an eye, she stuffed the pill that appeared out of thin air in her hand into Chu Haiyang's mouth. She then manually helped him close his mouth and quickly pressed his throat twice, forcing him to swallow due to the external force.

This smooth little combo was developed by feeding anthelmintics to Mengdian on a regular basis, and it is very skillful.

After Chu Haiyang was forced to swallow the pill, he coughed uncontrollably a few times. Feeling the changes in his physical condition, he stood there in disbelief.

Two minutes later, the eyes that had turned red due to congestion gradually returned to normal, and after the haziness, there was unusual clarity.

"You...you..." He opened his mouth, his tongue tied, "What did you give me to eat?" he asked.

"Purification pills." Qin Miao answered briefly, then stared into Chu Haiyang's eyes and asked, "Did you swallow the crystal core?"

Although it is a question, it is not in a questioning tone.

"I... yes." Facing Qin Miao's firm question, Chu Haiyang did not deny it. Although he was somewhat at a loss as to what to do when being stared at by the man in front of him, he still did not dodge and stared back at Qin Miao.

Seeing that Qin Miao had no intention of continuing the conversation with him, he swallowed and asked, "What are the purification pills... used for?"

Is that what he thought?

If that was the case, then the focus of his transaction at the auction this time would completely change.

Qin Miao crossed her arms across her chest, waiting for Chu Haiyang to ask questions.

"It can quickly restore sanity to people who have fallen into frenzy due to nuclear toxin accumulation, and remove some of the nuclear toxins accumulated in the body. Don't worry, there are no side effects."

Qin Miao answered easily, even dispelling any doubts about the side effects.

Everyone present gasped when they heard this.

Nowadays, there are some bases with scientific research foundations or backgrounds in other cities. But everyone's focus is on how to extract higher purity evolution liquid.

This research alone requires a lot of time, manpower, and resources. Even so, the research on evolutionary fluid is still progressing slowly.

As for the drugs specifically used to purify nuclear poison, there is simply no extra energy to develop them.

When there is no guarantee for the future, who will have the energy to save those who have gone astray?
