Chapter 214: A Modern World's Serum (1)
"I'll ask you again. Are you sure about this?" Su Ruolin stopped before the entrance and questioned Zhang Qin Feng. From the look of it, she's worried that Zhang Qin Feng will regret his decision and left in the middle of the lunch.
"Just get in and order what you like. My treat, today." Zhang Qin Feng shook his head while replying to her question.
"Alright. Then let us get in and order loads of food." Su Ruolin happily entered the restaurant, and the two enjoyed an unforgettable lunch. She was no different from a beast starved for a week.
After lunch, Zhang Qin Feng left since she still has to work until late afternoon. Coincidently, Stein's message came in right before he started the car engine. It seems that the next meeting with another buyer is just an hour away.
Zhang Qin Feng's time mainly dealt with the buyers interested in the WIFE-Coins and fetching Wang Yufei to work for the next few days. The work here was not as exciting as what he had to do in the post-apocalypse world.
But for him, a peaceful time like this is like a retreat that he can enjoy while he can.
Monday morning.
Zhang Qin Feng teleported to the post-apocalypse world after seeing Wang Yufei leaving to work with his car. He took a walk somewhere around the neighborhood. He vanished from sight when Stein found a covert location to execute the dimensional travel.
Visiting Valerian's lab was the first priority on his to-do list. It seems that the few days he wasn't around given Valerian enough time to research the medicine and came up with a version of her own.
Her action can be said to be modernizing the medicine that was deemed to be traditional. Such a feat can be said to be only achievable in this world. At least, if it were to be done in the modern world, the success rate for disassembling the medicine into its very own component would be nothing more than a dream.
"Looks like your research had some results. What kind of answer you're going to give me?" Zhang Qin Feng sat down on one of the chairs in Valerian's office and opened a canned coffee. Unsure if she was interested in the coffee or not, Zhang Qin Feng left another one on the table.
Valerian was smiling after hearing Zhang Qin Feng's words. Knowing that this boss is expecting some answers, she went to the nearest Laboratory fridge. A few flat cultures containers were taken out from the inside as she sexily walked to Zhang Qin Feng's side.
"I've done breaking the component apart and assembling it together into an enhanced version of medicinal serum. Plus, do you remember that you gave me a few vials of your blood sample before this?" Valerian placed the tray on the table and activated a tablet computer.
The sophisticated graphs and research results are shown on the tablet were filled with complicated meanings Zhang Qin Feng had difficulty understanding. But from the look of it, the results seem to be promising.
"Yes, I remember. Is there anything wrong with the blood sample?" Zhang Qin Feng asked. He remembered that before this, Stein already mentioned that his blood contains a unique trait capable of changing this world.
"I won't use the word wrong on your blood sample. If I had to say something, your blood is unique. Perhaps the boss is naturally conceived instead of getting cloned by the Shelter's sustaining program?" Valerian asked.
As a researcher, it was nothing wrong with her finding out the difference between Zhang Qin Feng and them. It was also part of her job to ensure that she had the blood sample of everyone living inside this Wind Base.
And to be honest, with the Gene Modifier Chair now in use, she had more responsibility than others to ensure that the modification will not create any undesirable effect. The serum might be just the lowest grade body augmentation resource. Still, there's no promise there won't be any side effects after application.
Valerian's sentence made Zhang Qin Feng fell silent for a moment. He might seem calm from the surface, but Valerian could tell that it might be bad for her if she continues to push Zhang Qin Feng to disclose the information.
"I'll assume that I never ask about this before, boss. You don't have to worry about it. Should I delete the record, so this will remained secret as you wish?" Valerian suggested. She knew that she might have stumble across something she shouldn't.
"No… It's fine." Zhang Qin Feng calmly answered her. In fact, he was in a conversation with Stein when he was remaining silent. The system sounded confident in this regard. Even if Valerian were to bring this research to other factions, it wouldn't be detrimental.
His blood might be different, but it could not change everything if it was exposed. The value of his blood comes from the long run, not instant.
"But, how did you find out about this. Is there any difference between my blood and the others?" Zhang Qin Feng asked. He knew that Stein might have the answer for him, but it was better to listen from Valerian, as his personal researcher.
His question made Valerian stares blankly at him. Chuckling twice after listening to Zhang Qin Feng's question, her hand reached out to the canned coffee on the table. She imitates Zhang Qin Feng's opening the coffee and took a sip after laughing at his foolish question.
"Gah! It was so bitter! What is this thing?" Valerian complained after taking a big sip from the ice expresso. But the bitterness caused her to itch for more instead of pushing the canned drink aside.
She felt that the more she tried, to more she get addicted to the taste.
"Ahem… Valerian?" Zhang Qin Feng glared at her as he was supposed to get his answer from her.
"Oh… How I found out that you might be different from everyone else? It's easy. I'm sure you have no idea, but you're the only man in this world, perhaps, that's capable of creating copies of your Gene Sample from having intercourse with us. You can create offsprings, you know?" Valerian shamelessly announced what she found.
