Reborn in the wasteland, picked up a soldier king

Qi Nan sat in the audience uncomfortably: "Is Xiaoxi not back yet?"

"Second Master, not yet."

"What's going on? Have you contacted them?"

The servant shook his head.

"Keep in touch."

"Yes."

At this moment, the head of the Li family enthusiastically invited Qi Nan to come on stage.

Qi Nan's palms were full of sweat due to his anxiety, but he still pretended to be calm, put on a faint smile, and slowly walked onto the stage.

"Thank you everyone."

"The Bishop personally ordered me to participate in this trade fair, and I also brought what everyone wants."

Qi Nan spoke with a smile on his face, but his heart was filled with bitterness and panic.

If these family heads knew that he didn't bring any food, they would eat him alive.

"Clap clap clap."

Upon hearing this, there was immediate applause from the audience.

"There is food. Finally, there is food."

"Okay, okay, I knew that the bishop would not ignore us."

"That's great. I haven't eaten for three days. Woohoo."

"..."

Hearing the voices from the audience, Qi Nan's eyes flashed with guilt and cold sweat broke out on his back.

Never mind, let’s postpone it for a while.

"Everyone, let me first show you the latest scientific research results of the East Research Institute."

Qi Nan on the stage gritted his teeth and continued speaking.

Hearing this, the audience protested in dissatisfaction: "What else are you going to show?"

"We want food."

"Yes, just give us the food. Don't worry that we can't afford it."

"That's it."

A group of people started to make a fuss. The ones who made the loudest noises were big and strong, looking like country bumpkins with a lot of money.

Seeing this, the head of the Li family glared at those people with disgust.

Just because he has some money he thinks he is a rich man. Look at how he looks like he has never seen the world.

"Alright, stop arguing and listen to what Patriarch Qi has to say."

On the stage, the head of the Li family had a dark face, clenched his cane, and stomped hard.

"This is the Li family, not a place where you can act so unruly. If you don't want to participate in the trade fair, you can get out now."

The head of the Li family warned with a stern look, and the audience immediately fell silent.

Qi Nan gave him a grateful look, then he instructed his assistant to push a large iron box onto the stage.

At this time, Leng Yi approached Lin Xiyao and whispered, "Qi Nan, the second patriarch of the Qi family, likes to study some strange things on weekdays."

"He has been staying in the research institute and rarely returns to the Qi family. He is considered the weakest person in the Qi family."

Lin Xiyao nodded.

Soon, the iron box on the stage opened, revealing a large glass display case.

Everyone was confused: "What is this?"

"Is the thing in the cabinet a living beast?"

"Meat, there is meat to eat."

Lin Xiyao rolled her eyes speechlessly. Fortunately, she hid the wind wolf beast in the forest.

This group of people were really starving. They were craving for meat so much that everything they saw looked like meat and they couldn't wait to pounce on it and take a bite.

"Shh."

At this time, the curtain of the glass display case was opened.

A female zombie in a maid outfit appeared in front of everyone.

It had a pale zombie face with delicate features. Its neck was tied with an iron chain. Its gray eyes were full of fear. It curled up in the corner of the display case, constantly shrinking back.

Everyone was startled at first, then they bravely moved forward.

"It's really strange. This is the first time I've seen zombies that are afraid of humans."

"Yeah, it's like a frightened lamb. What's going on?"

"..."

Being used to seeing bloodthirsty and brutal zombies that would bite at any moment, everyone suddenly became interested when they saw a timid and docile zombie.

Even Lin Xiyao was curious. She stretched her neck unconsciously and looked around, observing the zombies in the display case.

"It's just a zombie, what's so good about it?"

A sour voice sounded.

Lin Xiyao: “…”

Someone is jealous again.

"Everyone, do you want to have a pet like this that is well-behaved and docile, has high combat power, and has strong recovery ability?"

Having successfully aroused everyone's curiosity, Qi Nan spoke with satisfaction.

"pet?"

"What do you mean? Treating zombies as pets? Isn't that courting death?"

"Yeah, who knows when they will bite you back."

Lin Xiyao also thought this was a fantasy.

"Sixty years ago, dogs were humans' most loyal companions and the most popular pets. They guarded homes and accompanied families. Some people even regarded them as their closest relatives."

"And pets won't hurt their owners."

"Now, why can't we have zombies as pets?"

"As long as everyone treats zombies well and keeps them, they can become our most loyal pets and can save our lives when we are in danger."

On the stage, Qi Nan looked excited and gave an impassioned speech.

The audience was in an uproar.

This is simply fallacy.

Lin Xiyao almost dropped her jaw in shock. This man's train of thought was simply too bizarre.

"I know what everyone is worried about."

“We speak with facts.”

Faced with everyone's doubts, Qi Nan turned around with confidence.

"Xiao Li, don't be afraid, stand up."

Qi Nan looked at the female zombie in the display case and spoke softly.

The next second, the female zombie seemed to understand, she lowered her eyebrows, and stood up tremblingly.

“I really stood up.”

"Oh my god, can he control zombies?"

"Incredible."

Seeing this, there was another uproar from the audience.

Qi Nan raised the corner of his mouth and smiled proudly: "Xiao Li, squat down."

As soon as the words fell, the female zombie squatted down obediently, without any resistance or hesitation.

"Get down and crawl over here slowly."

"Very good, open your mouth and show everyone your fangs."

The female zombie did as she was told and opened her mouth wide, revealing her sharp, bloody teeth.

"Wow, awesome."

"Can zombies really be made to obey? How did Qi Nan do it?"

After the demonstration, the people in the audience showed envious looks.

Pet zombies are much more powerful than animal pets. If you take a zombie like this out, it will destroy the streets.

Someone asked, "Professor Qi, how did you do this?"

Qi Nan smiled faintly: "We have installed a chip in the zombie's brain. It can suppress the zombie's ferocity and make it obey human instructions."

"Of course, this bloodthirsty nature cannot be changed. They still like to eat raw meat and blood."

"What if it bites us accidentally?"

"Yeah, we don't want to become zombies."

After hearing Qi Nan's words, someone asked worriedly.

Qi Nan explained with a smile: "We have thought about this problem a long time ago."

"Everyone is just worried about being infected with the zombie virus."

"I can assure you that the pet zombies sold by the East Research Institute are virus-free and non-infectious."

"Of course, seeing is believing, and I will show you how to do it next."

Having said that, Qi Nan winked at his assistant.

The assistant nodded in understanding and walked towards a cheongsam maid in the venue.

"Could it be that the East Research Institute has already developed an antidote for the zombie virus?"

"I guess so. Hasn't the virus suppressant been developed for several years?"

"Yes, those red shadows fight each other every year for the inhibitory fluid, which proves that the inhibitory fluid is effective."

"Yes, let's take another look."

"Ah...what are you doing?"

At this moment, a sharp scream was heard, and the assistant pulled a panicked maid onto the stage.

"What are you yelling about? Shut up."

The head of the Li family roared angrily.
