Chapter 437 - 437 The First Drug Tester
437 The First Drug Tester
Wu Mo quickly determined that the production of the nourishment cabin was 90% complete.
Xu Wanqing put down her work and immediately reported to Wu Mo, “It’ll take about a day, Chief Engineer Wu.”
“Alright, we’ll check it several times once it’s done. I’ll be in charge of creating the nutrients and finding the drug user. We need to proceed with the human trials soon.”
Xu Wanqing nodded slightly and continued to focus on making the nourishment cabin.
Seeing this, Wu Mo did not say anything else and turned around to focus on the next stage of the project.
“The nutrients are quite easy to prepare. The difficulty is minimal.
“However, determining the first patient is a difficult decision.
“I have absolute confidence in the safety of the drug, but the old chief is busy with work, and he may not be able to spare a whole month to test the drug. We have to find someone who can keep the secret and understands the stakes.”
Life First could not be easily accessible in the early stages.
Therefore, the person who consumed the medicine had to keep it a secret, and it was best to get someone in the system.
At the same time, the person had to be of great significance so that there was a strategic effect. Only then would one be qualified to use Life First.
Wu Mo did not care whether Life First would be mass-produced in the later stages or not.
“My parents are on the list, but it wouldn’t be appropriate for them to be the first users.
“Let me think. I don’t know if there’s anyone suitable among the people I know.”
Wu Mo started to ponder and search for a suitable candidate from his network.
They had to meet the criteria: Be old and weak, have a good relationship with Wu Mo, and be able to agree without hesitation.
Wu Mo quickly found a suitable candidate.
“I think Phantom Wolf is absolutely suitable!”
Phantom Wolf’s real name was unknown. Due to confidentiality rules, he was only given the code name, Phantom Wolf.
He was once one of China’s ace fighter pilots.
He even boarded the space station and underwent half a year of adaptability training.
However, this highly regarded individual ended up losing his left arm in an accident.
After Wu Mo finished researching his exoskeleton armor, he helped the experts in the field of neurology to develop robotic prosthetics.
Phantom Wolf was the first person to try on a mechanical arm.
With Wu Mo’s help, Phantom Wolf was able to live a complete life again.
Hence, Wu Mo and Phantom Wolf’s friendship had been established. Although they had little contact, their friendship remained.
One could say that Wu Mo had saved Phantom Wolf’s career and made him more successful. He was also about to achieve a new military rank.
With that said, his glorious career was close to an end.
Phantom Wolf was almost 50 years old. He had even retired from the fierce frontline battles and become a space commander in the rear.
To Phantom Wolf, this was like torture. It was the same as preventing an eagle from flying high in the blue sky but keeping it in the nest to command other birds to learn hunting techniques.
However, Phantom Wolf could not give up his attachment to the army, so he spent every day in this torment.
“He’ll definitely agree.
“He’s the world’s number one mech warrior. He’ll definitely be able to accept my biological modification plan.
“Besides, his unique constitution will allow Life First to unleash its full potential.”
The miraculous potion, Life First, was exactly what Phantom Wolf needed. He now yearned to return to his youth and once again devote himself to the front line.
These had just been fantasies, but Life First could finally fulfill Phantom Wolf’s dreams.
“Let’s call Phantom Wolf now!”
Wu Mo went to his dedicated office and dialed the space station training camp through the landline.
The person who answered the call was a logistics soldier. After he gave his name and job number, the call was quickly transferred to Phantom Wolf.
“Hey, isn’t this old Wu? Why are you calling me?”
Phantom Wolf was as forthright as he was before. He got straight to the point before Wu Mo could open his mouth.
“It’s about something good for sure, but I have to invite you to my place.”
“Oh? What is it? Just tell me!”
“You’re going regain the youth you had in your 30s, so are you willing to come over?”
As soon as he said this, Phantom Wolf’s interest was piqued. Which man did not miss his 30s?
Phantom Wolf agreed without hesitation.
“I’m impatient, so you’d better tell me what you’re going to do first. Don’t keep me in suspense. Otherwise, I won’t do it.”
Wu Mo pondered for a moment and finally decided to tell him the truth about the experiment.
“I’m inviting you to try a magical medicine.”
“I don’t have that kind of need!” Phantom Wolf revealed his confusion.
When he heard the word “medicine” and thought of his age, he could not help but think of another possibility.
“It’s not that kind of medicine. I’ve been focusing on cross-field biological research, and I’ve invented a medicine that can increase one’s lifespan. Apart from that, it also has a certain youthfulness effect. It’s very suitable for you at the moment since you’re about to leave the battlefield because of your age.”
After he gained an understanding of the plan, Phantom Wolf agreed almost immediately.
“Really?”
“When have I ever lied to you? Furthermore, with my scientific research ability, it shouldn’t be a problem for me to develop a longevity medicine.”
Wu Mo had always been blunt with his old friends.
“You’re the first person I thought of. I know you’re about to retire, and you’re the heart of the orbital airborne team. Just like your code name, you trained them like wolf cubs. There has never been a leader who has voluntarily left his pack, so come and accept this transformation. I promise to return you to your peak condition.”
Wu Mo’s words deeply moved Phantom Wolf.
That’s right, an alpha wolf never voluntarily left his pack!
Moreover, Phantom Wolf had served in the army for decades, and he had gotten used to being on standby.
He was truly reluctant to retire.
With that, Phantom Wolf sounded even more determined.
“Okay, I’ll be right there. I’ll fill in the application now.”
Wu Mo stopped Phantom Wolf.
“You don’t have to write an application. I’ll report directly to the Air Force general. It’ll be faster this way.”
“I’ll have to trouble you then. Once I return to my 30-year-old state, we’ve got to have a good celebration.”
“Alright, you should get ready first!”
After the call ended, Wu Mo immediately reported the matter to the general of the Air Force.
After all, he was Phantom Wolf’s direct superior, and the old chief could not move away from his post.
His call was quickly connected to the Air Force general.
“Little Wu, what’s the matter?” The general asked.
“General, here’s the thing. I’ve already completed an innovative project. It’s related to a magical lifespan increasing drug. I believe the old chief has already mentioned this project to you?”
“Yes, he’s mentioned it to me. Have you really completed it?”
The Air Force general’s tone was filled with surprise.
After all, this drug could directly extend the lifespan of middle-aged and elderly people.
The Air Force leaders had been paying attention to this project, but they did not expect Wu Mo to complete it so quickly.
“General, I need someone to be the first tester, and I’ve already chosen Phantom Wolf. Please allow him to return to the ground.”
“I would also like to request the execution of an airborne landing to make things quicker.”
