Online Fortune Telling: Your Son Has Another Dad-Chapter 389 - 387: The Ambitions of the Religious Affairs Bureau
Yanjing, Religious Affairs Bureau.
The conference room on the fourth floor was filled with mid to high-level leaders of the Religious Affairs Bureau.
Director He and Director Xing were also present.
Everyone was not arguing or discussing as usual, but all wore serious expressions as if waiting for something.
About ten minutes later, Group Leader Qi and Director Li hurriedly pushed open the conference room door.
At this moment, everyone’s eyes converged on him.
"Qi, have the test results come out?"
"Do those Pills have any side effects?"
"What are the ingredients? Can we synthesize them?"
"What about the clinical trials? After taking the Heaven-Supporting Pill, are there any side effects?"
"What about the Vitality Pill?"
"Yes, yes, after taking the Vitality Pill, can one become a Cultivator?"
The conference room, which had been silent just now, became noisy at the appearance of Qi and Li.
"Quiet down!"
"Let Qi speak for himself, why are you all chipping in?"
At this time, Director Xing frowned and pounded the table heavily.
Seeing his annoyed expression, everyone immediately fell silent.
Facing everyone’s questions, Qi and Director Li exchanged a glance.
"Li, you talk!"
Qi said with a smile.
Simultaneously, he handed the test report in his hand to Li.
"Okay!"
Hearing this, Director Li nodded lightly and took the test report handed over by Qi.
"Fellow leaders, the five Pills provided by Xiao Yan have been tested by us."
"The test results are now out..."
He quietly scanned everyone in the conference room, each person’s face displaying a trace of anticipation.
After Director He presented those five different Pills, the high-level leaders within the bureau were eager to know if these Pills had any side effects and if they could be perfectly replicated.
Therefore, they divided into two teams.
The first team, consisting of Qi and himself, was responsible for testing the active ingredients of these five Pills.
The second team, led by Director Xing’s capable officer Fu, gathered five volunteers from within the bureau for preliminary human trials.
The results of the second team’s trials have not yet been released.
However, the first team’s test results have been released in advance.
Addressing everyone’s curiosity, Director Li cleared his throat and said aloud, "We conducted detailed tests on these five Pills and successfully identified the active ingredients of each."
"Test identification number one, the active ingredient of Satiety Pill is..."
Director Li slowly listed the active ingredients for all five test identifications, which were the five Pills.
Those present were listening in a fog.
After all, they were neither chemists nor pharmaceutical specialists, and upon hearing these chemical compositions, each felt overwhelmed.
"Li, there’s no need to read those active ingredients."
"Just tell us whether these five pharmaceuticals contain any harmful toxic side effects to humans."
"And whether we can synthesize these five pharmaceuticals using similar methods."
At that moment, a deputy director was the first to speak.
Everyone else nodded in agreement.
They were not concerned with the compositions of these Pills, only whether there were toxic side effects and if they could be successfully replicated.
"Okay, Director Qiao!"
Responding to this, Director Li immediately nodded and turned to the last page of the test report.
Then, in a deep voice, he said, "According to test analysis, none of these five Pills contain any harmful toxic side effects to humans."
"Synthesizing these five Pills is not impossible either."
"But it will take time..."
"How much time?"
Director He asked.
"I and Group Leader Qi have consulted experts in the pharmaceutical field, and it will take at least ten years, possibly twenty or more years."
Director Li answered truthfully.
Upon hearing this, the attendees in the conference room could not conceal their disappointment.
Even Director Xing couldn’t help but sigh lightly.
Previously, they thought it was feasible that since these five Pills were made using existing medicinal materials, the active ingredients could be directly extracted from the related materials and synthesized using modern pharmaceutical technology.
Once the pharmaceuticals were successfully synthesized, they had planned on showing them to Xiao Yan, that proud and arrogant old guy, to demonstrate that modern humans were not inferior to you Cultivators.
But things didn’t turn out as well as anticipated...
"What about Fu’s results?"
"Call him and hurry him up."
Director Xing instructed.
"Yes, Director!"
The secretary immediately took out his phone and dialed Fu’s number.
After exchanging a few words, the secretary said excitedly, "Director, Fu has the results too."
"He’s on his way and will arrive in ten minutes."
Director Xing nodded slightly and said, "Alright, let’s wait ten minutes for him."
Ten minutes later, Fu walked into the conference room, panting.
"Fellow leaders, the two-day clinical trial is complete!"
Fu grinned, smiling brightly.
He imagined Director Xing and others would be pleased to hear the clinical trial results.
However, reality was somewhat different from what he imagined...
Including Director Xing, the people’s reactions were rather subdued.
How could they not be, when their expectations had suddenly collapsed?
"Go ahead!"
Director Xing spoke.
"Oh...oh!"
Fu scratched his head, perplexed by the subdued reaction.
He didn’t have time to think much about it, and directly said, "According to the results of the two-day clinical trial, none of the five types of Pills have any harmful side effects to humans."
"Test subject number one, the Satiety Pill, indeed has a satiating effect."
"Subject number one has not eaten anything for two days after taking one Satiety Pill."
"Before leaving, I specifically asked him, and he said he did not feel any hunger."
"I believe the Satiety Pill’s effect is very likely as described, one pill could be taken, and one wouldn’t need to eat within three days."
"The Calm Mind and Clear Spirit Pill, numbered as two, showed somewhat special effects."
"After subject number two took it, he had no desires for a whole day."
"Even when looking at his favorite things, he felt no ripple of emotion."
"But on the second day, he returned to normal..."
Here, Fu paused briefly.
After swallowing, he continued, "The Heaven-Supporting Pill, identified as number three, has remarkable effects!"
"After taking it, subject number three was full of energy for two consecutive days."
"As for long-term effects and whether it is harmful, it’s still unknown."
"As for the Antitoxic Pill, number four, due to its special effects, no willing testers were found."
"As for number five, the Vitality Pill..."
When Fu mentioned the crucial Vitality Pill, everyone’s attention was immediately drawn.
The Vitality Pill relates to the future mass cultivation of Cultivators.
Therefore, everyone was very concerned...
