  “Everyone listen up. This is Feng Lin, a talented genetic researcher our company has just recruited. He’s now a member of your research team! Even though Feng Lin is young, his understanding of myths and legends far surpasses that of ordinary people, and he was also well-versed in genetic theories. Thus, all of you must work well together. The company has decided that as long as this topic is tackled, we’ll take out 100 million star coins as your bonus.”


  Manager Frank was in a very good mood after hearing personally from Feng Lin that he had agreed to stay. In order to show how highly he regarded Feng Lin, Manager Frank personally introduced him to the Research and Development Department (R&D Department). In addition, he also made a solemn announcement of a tempting bonus.

  “All hail, the Manager! You’re really generous!”


  “I can’t wait to get started on tackling this topic!”


  “100 million star coins! It’s 100 million star coins! Even if all of us were to split it evenly, we’d still be able to purchase one of the most luxurious villas on the lavish Pluto Resort Star!”
……

  Cheers broke out amongst the R&D Department. Everyone was extremely motivated.

  As for Feng Lin?

  Sorry, no one paid him any attention at all.

  He was just a newcomer and wasn’t worth paying too much attention to.

  Moreover, this person had just offended the team leader of the R&D Department’s Research Taskforce. The team leader was a very petty person.

  They seemed to already anticipate the tragic situation that Feng Lin would be put through. He would probably be chased out by the team leader very soon.

  Of course, Feng Lin didn’t care about their opinions and just pondered silently.

  100 million star coins would be paid out as the reward if the research topic was tackled?

  This was really exaggerating. What kind of research topic had such a great value?

  Feng Lin was a little surprised, but he felt more excited than he was surprised.

  A research topic like this would be very technical and involve profound genomics knowledge. If he was involved in this research topic and the technical difficulty was cleared, it would be a great experience for him as well. He would definitely benefit greatly from it.

  His path to becoming a geneticist in the future would become smoother as well.

  Feng Lin was glad that he had told Manager Frank that he agreed to stay. Otherwise, not only would he be unable to afford the penalty for the breach of contract, but he might also become like the other genetic researcher interns, sent to formulate medicine day and night, working like robots.

  Not only was it time and effort consuming, but he wouldn’t be able to learn much from it either. Other than getting a pay of 50,000 star coins a month, he wouldn’t be able to get away with anything else.

  If money was what he wanted, he wouldn’t have to come to this place. He could kill monsters in the virtual universe to get gene drops, then synthesizing them into high-grade gene modules before selling them. It would bring him a lot more money than the salary he was paid here.

  Knowledge was priceless!

  Knowledge concerning geneticists were considered to be extremely invaluable. This was what Feng Lin held in high regards.

  Manager Frank personally brought Feng Lin to meet the Research Taskforce’s team leader, Aike—the treacherous-looking man. “Aike, Feng Lin will be under your charge from now on. He has a unique understanding of genomic theories and you must put his talent to good use!”


  “Of course! Manager, please rest assured. I’ll definitely take good care of Feng Lin.” Aike said with a shadow of a smile, appearing to be cynical as he placed a greater emphasis on the words “take good care”.

  Feng Lin’s heart sank. This person was up to no good!

  “That’s good then!” Manager Frank didn’t think much about it and nodded before leaving.

  The moment Manager Frank left, Aike immediately glared at Feng Lin coldly. He was no longer smiling and his countenance had changed.

  “From today onward, you’ll be a member of our team! You must work hard. Our R&D Department is a core department in the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, and we don’t take in useless people. If I were to discover that you are slacking in your job, I will dock all of your bonus and even your pay!”


  “Yes, Sir!” Feng Lin replied calmly.

  Clearly, his earlier actions of objecting to human experiments had offended this person greatly.

  However, Feng Lin knew that as long as he didn’t let Aike get a handle on himself, there was nothing the latter would be able to do to him.

  After all, Aike was merely a Research Taskforce’s team leader, not yet the manager of the R&D Department. Aike could only make things difficult for Feng LIn and wasn’t able to control an employee’s destiny.

  Seeing that Feng Lin didn’t show any signs of apprehension, Aike’s eyes narrowed, revealing a viper’s glow. “Alright, it seems that you’re very confident. You can get to work now!”


  Feng Lin spread out his hands. “Since I’m going to start working, I need to at least be told what the research topic is, right?”


  Hearing that, Aike immediately revealed a malicious smile. “The topic? That’s easy! To formulate a genetic medicine that even ordinary people can take to increase their vitality!”


  Feng Lin’s eyes were agape and he instinctively said, “That’s impossible!”


  Gene potions contained spiritual substances and had astonishing energies. Ordinary people’s bodies wouldn’t be able to tolerate it, and drinking it recklessly would cause them to explode!

  It would be a real explosion!

  Even the potion of life, a gene potion that didn’t have a grade, would need to be diluted by a lot before ordinary people could take them, let alone actual gene potions.

  His first reaction was that Aike was toying with him.

  “Why is it impossible?” A ridiculing smirk appeared on Aike’s face, and he sent a set of the research topic onto Feng Lin’s microchip.

  Feng Lin opened it and discovered that this was actually real. It was real!

  To think that the Giant Pharmaceutical Company was really trying to research gene potions that ordinary people could take as well. If they were to really succeed, it was likely to become a great discovery that would astonish the entire Interstellar Space. How much would the patent alone sell for? One billion? Ten billion? 100 billion?……

  No, it was already inestimable.

  It was no wonder that Manager Frank would dare to bring out 100 million as a bonus. It wasn’t considered much.

  Seeing how Feng Lin’s eyes were wide open and his mouth agape, Aike kept on smirking at the side. “Ignorant and ill-informed. If you don’t know about something, it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist! Based on the archaeological discoveries from ancient relics, mysterious medicine that humans could take had existed in the era of myths and legends.

  “There were many myths and legends that said of how a person could reach the stage of ‘reborn’, instantly evolving into the higher level. There were also those that spoke of people that rose up to greater statuses in a flash. What we’re going to do now is to restore such amazing skills and bring great benefit to mankind. What are mere human experiments? They are contributing to mankind! These human trash can still be put to good use; thus, it is already the greatest blessings to them.

  “Kid, today, you’ve questioned the way our R&D Department does things. I’m already very displeased about it. From now on, I hope that you can have a clear view of things. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not going easy on you!”


  Feng Lin fell silent.

  Aike was the person-in-charge of this topic, and Feng Lin didn’t have to bicker with him over a mere momentary fury, landing himself in a difficult position.

  Having been humans of two lifetimes, Feng Lin’s mental age was no longer as young as how his appearance made him out to be. He held back his momentary anger.

  After warning Feng Lin, Aike walked up to an empty laboratory table and put a gene potion formula on it. He then said, “This is your spot! I’ll give you one day time to research and give me the improved formula for this Adrenaline Potion. This formula is extremely important to our research topic. If you don’t complete this mission, don’t blame me for deducting your pay.

  “I’ll give you another warning. Our Giant Pharmaceutical Company’s R&D Department won’t keep trash. Don’t think of bluffing your way through! Otherwise, hehe……”


  He laughed coldly a few times and left directly.

  Feng Lin’s countenance sank as he looked at the Adrenaline Potion formula, feeling very troubled.

  This was really troublesome……

  Improve a gene potion formula?

  Wasn’t this something that geneticists should be doing?

  He was merely a genetic researcher. This was clearly making things difficult for him!
