The Alliance. Terminus Star Region. Quantum Holdings' genetic engineering headquarters.
Xia Fei had left. In order to pursue his dreams and greater power, he had gone to the Law Realm where ordinary people could not even dream of, but Quantum Holdings' development had not stagnated because of his departure.
After spending several years, Xia Fei had built a loyal and efficient team. In the days when Xia Fei was not around, this team displayed extraordinary control and combat power. While Xia Fei was advancing by leaps and bounds in the Law Realm, Quantum Holdings was also setting off a massive commercial revolution in the Alliance.
Charlie, Potter, and Sarah were the three main people in charge of this team. Sarah was in charge of the company's transportation and security forces. Potter was in charge of technological development and acting as the sole representative of Quantum Holdings' interests in TERMINUS. The young Charlie was the first person in charge of the team. He was in charge of finance, trade, and foreign affairs, the three core departments of the company.
Other than that, there were also the experienced Andre and Qin Mang as the company's advisors. Wu Long, Boateng, Allen, Yawei, and countless other elites were working in various departments of the company.
Quantum Holdings, once a nameless corporation on Earth, had developed to an unprecedented level of power!
Xia Fei's Quantum Holdings and the Starlink Corporation controlled by the Avril family were inseparable strategic partners, firmly holding onto the throne of the Pan-human Alliance's number one business alliance. Everyone knew that due to the relationship between Avril and Xia Fei, these two companies would merge sooner or later.
This was not to mention the robot army deep in the hidden dimension. Sentinel Goddess Sophie was currently leading this enormous army to build the ultimate warship for Xia Fei, the Titan! They were also one of Xia Fei's trump cards, and he would only use them at the most crucial moment!
It could be said that outside of the Law Realm, Xia Fei and his Quantum Holdings already possessed first-rate strength!
* Whoosh! *
The warship landed, and Charlie hurriedly disembarked. He took a deep breath of Terminus Star Region's air.
The gigantic genetic engineering research and development center before him made him feel gratified. It seemed that Uncle Porter had really done a lot of work in Terminus Star Region. Unfortunately, the urgency in his heart prevented him from enjoying the scenery.
Xia Fei had given Charlie the most important mission, one that could be said to be the safest mission in the history of Quantum Holdings: concoct the gene optimization fluid for Avrils. For this mission, Charlie had come to Terminus for the first time. He wanted to personally see the progress of the gene optimization fluid that Harris was in charge of.
"Charlie."
"Uncle Potter."
Potter was the only one who welcomed Charlie. Due to the importance of this project, there were only three people who truly knew the inside story: Charlie, Potter, and the top scientist, Harris.
Potter patted Charlie on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Hmm, I haven't seen you for a few years and you've become more and more mature. Has your journey been smooth?"
Charlie nodded. "Our fleet is now known to be invincible under the command of the military, so our journey has been very safe. Speaking of which, Terminus has been very peaceful these days. We didn't even see the shadow of a pirate along the way."
Potter laughed. "Pirates? That's all history now. Yawei and the three Ling brothers led their fleets and swept through the Terminus Star Region a few times. Now, the mere mention of the word 'Terminus' sends shivers down the spines of the pirates. Who would dare cause trouble now? "
The two of them chatted as they walked into the gene research center. The security here was so strict that it caused one to sigh in admiration. There were guards armed to the teeth and the most advanced security system everywhere.
"The guards are all direct descendants from Earth. Anyone who knows the inside story is not allowed to take even half a step out of the research and development center. They are monitored 24/7." Porter introduced.
"This is an important matter, so it's reasonable for you to make such arrangements. If we can't complete the mission, we won't be able to answer to Big Brother Xia Fei," Charlie said.
Porter nodded. "Xia Fei has given us so much, so we must complete his most important request no matter what, even if we have to pay a higher price."
They took the elevator to the seventh floor, and after going through a dozen or so checkpoints, Porter and Charlie finally entered the core structure of the research and development center.
Harris was waiting for them in the office. This craziest scientist in the history of the Alliance had hair as messy as a bird's nest. It was unknown how long it had been since he last washed his hair. He was nibbling on his index finger as if he was pondering over a problem.
After a simple greeting, Harris turned on a screen and said with a serious expression, "This is the final solution, codenamed Seraph, a catalytic slow-release gene optimization fluid."
Porter and Charlie stared at the small bottle of clear liquid on the screen, as well as the molecular equations that neither of them could understand.
"Are you certain that this model of optimization fluid meets all of Xia Fei's requirements?"
Harris nodded. "That's right. The Seraph gene optimization fluid is a pure, natural biological preparation. It's the product of a total of 4,179 preliminary formulas that Xia Fei and I have created. Its safety and medicinal strength have reached unprecedented levels. It can be said that this is the highest grade of optimization fluid that the Alliance can currently produce."
Charlie listened to Harris's solemn vow and said in a deep voice, "More than 4,000 preliminary formulas? You and Xia Fei came up with so many formulas? "
Harris looked ashamed as he said, "Actually, most of these are Xia Fei's formulas. I'm merely in charge of experimenting with them. His current level of pharmacology has long surpassed mine."
Porter continued, "I don't know much about pharmacology, but I know that experimentation is the only way to verify the truth. Tell me more about the human experiments."
The atmosphere turned a little gloomy. Using humans as an experiment was absolutely forbidden in the Alliance, yet Xia Fei had insisted on carrying out human experiments, experiments that did not care about the consequences!
From Xia Fei's point of view, even ten thousand lives would not be enough to exchange for a single strand of Avrils hair. He only cared about the people he cared about, and nothing else mattered to him.
Harris pulled out a form and said seriously, "There are 12,305 experimental subjects, and the ratio of males to females is six to four. Their ages range from sixteen to a hundred and seventy, and there are both those who have opened their seventh brain regions and those who haven't."
"No one has suffered any adverse reactions during the experiments, let alone died. The average seventh brain region expansion rate is forty-nine percent, and the probability of opening it is one hundred percent."
Harris's eyes shone with excitement. A one hundred percent probability of opening and a one hundred percent survival rate. The functions of the Seraph gene optimization fluid could be said to be outstanding!
The most powerful and safest gene optimization fluid in history had been born!
Charlie and Porter could not help but stand up. They were very clear what this new gene optimization fluid meant. Once it was mass-produced, humans would completely break through the limits of the seventh brain region, and all of them would become Ability Users!
No one spoke for a long time. What else could they say in the face of such a heaven-defying super drug?
"Uncle Porter, how many human subjects do we have left?" Charlie asked.
"About one hundred and twenty thousand people, all of whom are captured pirates and criminals."
"Immediately begin a larger scale human experiment. Use these one hundred and twenty thousand people." Charlie said in a deep voice, "Big Brother Xia Fei has instructed us to do it without fail, so we must do it without fail!"
Porter and Harris were both moved. Using a hundred thousand people to conduct human experiments? This decision was simply insane to the extreme!
Walking out of Harris's office, Porter said in a deep voice, "Charlie, do you understand the weight of Seraph?"
Charlie nodded. "Big Brother Xia Fei has created the most heaven-defying gene optimization fluid in history. If it is popularized, humans will be free from the control of the laws of the universe."
No one was a fool, and going against the laws of nature often meant taking risks. The universe had its own laws and predestination, and Xia Fei breaking the laws of the seventh brain region might not necessarily be a good thing for him, or for humanity as a whole.
"This thing was created by Big Brother Xia Fei, so we will follow Xia Fei's decision on how to use it. I believe in him," Charlie said.
Porter agreed, but his heart was filled with worry about this drug that could change the laws of the universe.
Changing the topic, Charlie talked about something else in an attempt to shake off this oppressive atmosphere.
"Do you still remember Butcher?"
"Oh, him. He's a pretty good ability warrior and a friend of Xia Fei's. I haven't heard from him for the past few years. I heard that he went to explore Eden."
The existence of Eden had once caused a stir in the Alliance, and countless people yearned for it. However, due to the war with the insectoids, the legendary pure land of humans was gradually forgotten.
Charlie smiled. "Recently, the company received a long-distance communication from Butcher, saying that he has returned and wants to personally report to Xia Fei on the progress of his exploration. Unfortunately, it's too far away, and Butcher's fleet doesn't have a Black Bat radar, so there's no way to tell him that Xia Fei has left the Alliance."
Porter was stunned. "Did Butcher's exploration team find Eden?"
"He didn't say. He only said that he wanted to have a private chat with Xia Fei. I reckon that even if he didn't find Eden, he should have found some clues."
Porter smiled. "Xia Fei has always been very curious, so he'll surely be very excited if he knows this news. Find a chance to tell him about it and Seraph's progress."
Charlie nodded. "The Black Bat radar's connection to the Law Realm is sometimes good and sometimes bad, and there hasn't been any news from Big Brother Xia Fei recently. Who knows what he's doing in the Law Realm."
The two could not help but be filled with yearning. The starry sky that mortals could not reach was a fatal attraction to anyone.
…
While Charlie and Porter were happy and worried about the effects of the Seraph gene optimization fluid, curious about the news from Butcher's exploration team, and Avril was training hard every day in preparation to open her seventh brain region one day, Xia Fei was suffering from a hellish training.
* Thump! Thump! *
Figures fell to the ground one after another, panting heavily and looking miserable.
Xia Fei expressionlessly looked at the hundred thousand kilometers of desert behind him. He shared the Origin Crystals with Furball, taking advantage of this rare break to replenish his exhausted stamina.
Everyone was exhausted, but no one would give up so easily.
"There are actually 605 people left! You candidates are so annoying! If you don't have the strength, hurry up and quit so that you don't waste my time. " Busey expressionlessly said, "Now, we'll begin the third trial. The last ten who entered the spatial gate will be eliminated!"
The first trial had given them thirty seconds to rest, but in the second trial, Busey was even worse, not giving the candidates even a second to rest!
