Chapter 222: 222: All Hall Masters are getting greedy

Beijing.

Science Academy, Pharmaceutical Research Institute.

It was the same two academicians as before, invited to carry out the drug testing.

Hall Master Song had not left for a moment. Since fetching the elixir from the airport, she had urged the academicians to hurry and conduct the related tests.

Delaying cellular growth and aging over time, and possessing regenerative abilities.

At first listen, you might not understand.

But to put it simply, this elixir could allow you to have younger organ functions at the age of 60—do you understand a bit more now?

The news spread from Elder Yan.

While Hall Master Song was anxiously waiting, Head Liu arrived.

Then, Chief Zhao came too.

And immediately after that, Elder Yan arrived as well.

Suddenly, more and more hall masters, despite being busy, all came over.

"Are the results not out yet?"

The hall masters who had arrived later asked curiously as they entered.

Some who had already been waiting for a long time shook their heads. The secretary brought over chairs, and a bunch of old folks actually just sat casually in the waiting room outside the laboratory, watching the situation through the transparent glass.

Hall Master Song, seeing more and more people arriving, glanced at her colleagues with annoyance: "Do you not have anything to do? Why have you all come here?"

The other hall masters laughed: "Once Old Yan mentioned a technology that can extend life, how could we sit still? We came over to check it out first."

Which scholar wouldn’t pay attention to a major academic breakthrough that could impact the development of human civilization?

Even to put it more bluntly, they were all not young anymore. Who wouldn’t want to live longer?

The youngest hall master in attendance was at least over sixty.

Given the extent of their hard work and busy schedules, it was estimated that they would only have about ten peaceful years after retirement before passing away.

Don’t be fooled by their seemingly indifferent attitude towards death.

It’s because there’s no way for them to defy natural aging and death, so no one can demand more.

But if you ask them if they fear death?

Fear? Yes, everyone fears death!

Those with wealth fear that they won’t get to enjoy the money they’ve accumulated, finding it frightening and unwilling.

And those with power and grand ambitions fear they don’t have enough time left to achieve their dreams and aspirations!

Take, for example, those geniuses who have dedicated their lives to scientific research.

How many have spent their lives and only made scientific discoveries in their sixties or seventies but aren’t able to actualize them because their bodies and memory are already failing. When they pass their work down to students, who might take thirty or forty years to reach their teacher’s level of research, they too are already in their sixties or seventies and are struggling.

This vicious cycle has prevented humanity from being able to explore or accomplish grand feats within the limited span of natural life.

Up to this point in scientific advancement, scholars from all around the world have realized that it isn’t the mysterious and forbidden realms of science that are holding them back, but their own lack of time!

The saying "Better a poor life than a good death" fully illustrates that no one would complain about living too long!

Therefore, the hall masters were also very concerned about the status of the drug.

"Feng merely brought it for me to test out; its feasibility isn’t necessarily high," Hall Master Song didn’t want to dampen their enthusiasm.

But deep down, she was quite hopeful.

After all, this was another unprecedented super project!

The other hall masters didn’t take those words to heart: "Since the kid brought it out, he must be fairly confident."

"Right, look at the academicians researching so intensely for such a long time. If the initial testing of the aging suppression project hadn’t been established, they wouldn’t be so dedicated to further study. It means the hypothesis is valid; we just need to wait and see to what extent the functions are proven effective!"

Elder Yan chimed in: "The academicians are being cautious, which is right because Feng only brought this one piece. It seems the materials he used for the refinement this time are limited."

The other hall masters immediately became alert: "Ah? Is that a technical or material obstacle?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Elder Yan: "It seems from what Feng said, it’s really tough dealing with the materials."

At this point, Hall Master Song realized something: "My secretary received a list of medicinal materials from Chen. Feng asked me to do whatever it takes to establish a domestic cultivation center, and for some medicinal materials, we even need to purchase them from abroad. And it would be best to form a monopoly."

Just then, the indicator light in the lab turned on.

All eyes immediately turned towards it.

The two academicians excitedly held up the complete report, saying with enthusiasm, "Leaders, it’s very effective, extremely effective!"

"Indeed, it not only suppresses cell aging it also has effects in regenerating and repairing organs. Just now, in our experiment, we found that this substance can even repair and rejuvenate your damaged organs."

Everyone present had shining eyes.

Hall Master Song eagerly asked, "Just tell us what significant effects we can expect if we were to take this elixir."

The pharmaceutical academician laughed: "If you, Hall Master Song, were to take this elixir now, it would slow and inhibit all natural aging of your genetic makeup, with a delay rate of 3 times! Simply put, if your current organs could function for another 10 years, it would extend it to 30 years!"

The pupils of several hall masters dilated in an instant.

The three hall masters of the sea, land, and air turned to look at Hall Master Song: "Old Song, you give us the list of medicinal materials Feng needs. No matter which country it is in, we are prepared to conquer it at any cost!"

Monopoly!

We must monopolize it!

Since technology isn’t an issue, if it’s just a matter of materials, then at all costs, we must keep this project tightly in our hands.

The excited old folks quickly turned their attention to Gu Dadong.

One after another, they laughed and teased. Old Song assertively put his arm around Gu Dadong’s shoulder: "Old Gu, that kid in your brother’s family, isn’t his name Gu Yi? I reckon he’s not young anymore, right? How about picking out a match for him in my family?"

The other hall masters followed up: "Old Gu, Old Song’s daughter is so clunky, don’t be foolish."

Gu Dadong didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

He was well aware of what these people were scheming.

Wasn’t it just to get him to ask Gu Feng for the elixir?
