Chapter 441 - 441 Becoming the Second User of Life First
441 Becoming the Second User of Life First
As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere became tense.
It was not difficult to notice this. Wu Mo did not deliberately hide it in the early stages and revealed some information at the right time because of this too.
In the later stages, everyone could speculate about the existence of an elixir of immortality.
“That’s indeed possible. I remember the head once warned me not to find out what project Chief Engineer Wu is working on. I was wondering about the specific content before, but now I understand.”
“Although it sounds like science fiction, it’s most likely an elixir of immortality.”
“I might be suspicious of others, but if we’re talking about Chief Engineer Wu, then there’s absolutely no doubt.”
Everyone was shocked.
The elixir of immortality was too attractive to the female scientists!
Even though they were shocked, they did not take the initiative to ask questions because there were rules. They could only watch as Wu Mo and Phantom Wolf returned to the laboratory.
Phantom Wolf later returned to his dorm to rest. He used the excuse that he was too tired.
Wu Mo quickly went to the office and got ready to inform the old chief and the Air Force general of the news.
The first person he looked for was naturally the old chief.
His call went through almost immediately.
“Little Wu, I’ve been anxiously waiting for your call. Hurry up and report on Comrade Phantom Wolf.”
Wu Mo immediately reported Phantom Wolf’s situation.
“Chief, we can start the next phase of the test, the large-scale human adaptability experiment.”
Even though he was confident in the drug produced by the system, he still had to go through the necessary procedures to appease the others.
Then, Wu Mo explained the situation after Phantom Wolf used the drug.
“Comrade Phantom Wolf is in great condition,” he reported.
“In addition, this drug is more suitable for people with obvious Chinese features. However, the degree of transformation will depend on the physique,” he continued.
“If you use this medicine, you might be able to raise your body’s functions to Phantom Wolf’s level. In other words, you might regain the vitality of a 60-year-old and increase your lifespan by 30 years,” Wu Mo said confidently.
The old chief heaved a sigh of relief. The heavy boulder in his heart had finally been lifted.
Earlier on, he had been worried about whether Life First could be successfully used.
Now, these doubts had disappeared without a trace.
“In that case, we should enter the mass production phase as soon as possible and discuss the scope of the first batch of users.”
The old chief raised the issue because the manufacturing cost of Life First was extremely high.
The cost of each drug was as high as nine million yuan due to the complexity of the raw materials and the inability to use the assembly line with artificial intelligence.
The manufacturing process required graduate level researchers to personally handle it.
Aside from the nine-million-yuan cost, the researchers’ time was extremely precious.
On top of the drug’s confidentiality requirements, it could only be manufactured by military units in secret places deep in the mountains.
Wu Mo began to express his opinion, “Chief, I think this drug should be given to those frontline combatants who are about to retire first. Our old comrades like Phantom Wolf who have great combat strength and strategic value can be given priority.”
The old chief nodded in agreement.
“In addition, researchers in technical positions, namely scientists, such as Dr. Chen and certain academicians who have retired or are about to retire, can also use Life First.”
This drug had been made for these two types of people from the day it was invented.
“I don’t really recommend that others use it,” Wu Mo said solemnly.
The old chief smiled in satisfaction and continued, “Indeed, some people will not be able to use Life First.”
As for who it was, Wu Mo and the old chief had a tacit understanding, so there was no need to say it out loud.
“Regarding the universal vaccine, we’re still quite far away from our goal. I can only provide laboratory manufacturing at the moment, and it can’t enter the assembly line for production. Perhaps in the future, the seniors of the Academy of Sciences would be able to figure out the assembly line for manufacturing.”
Wu Mo looked forward to it.
“Imagine, in the near future, the era of universal inoculations will come.”
There was a gleam in Wu Mo’s eyes.
“When that happens, this information can no longer be kept a secret. People all over the world will be proud of having Chinese blood,” he said emotionally.
The path to immortality had been pursued by countless people all over the world.
For the young, it might not prove to be much.
However, for the rich and old, they would not hesitate even if they had to spend billions or even tens of billions to buy this drug.
After some discussion, the old chief finally made a decision.
“Even those we prioritize are ranked.
“For example, I’ll make you the first user, followed by your family,” he said.
“Thank you for thinking about me, Old Chief!” Wu Mo said gratefully.
There was no need for him to refuse such an offer.
“You should have this opportunity. You can administer Life First in the Institute of Special Biology,” the old chief said.
“Yes, Sir!”
After he hung up, Wu Mo immediately returned to the laboratory.
Xu Wanqing also arrived at the laboratory, and the two of them worked together to create Life First.
During the process, Xu Wanqing curiously asked, “Chief Engineer Wu, are the others and the old chief the next users?”
“No, the old chief asked me to use it first,” Wu Mo replied.
Xu Wanqing responded softly and continued to focus on the production of Life First.
Wu Mo contemplated for a moment and told her the range of other users.
“I’m not the only one. You’re also on the list. As the deputy chief engineer of this project, you should be one of the first to use it. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be against the heavens?”
Xu Wanqing smiled and nodded. She then lowered her head and continued to work.
Wu Mo was used to her expression.
Xu Wanqing had a calm personality, and she was not easily angered or agitated.
She often just smiled and frowned to express her emotions.
This was also one of the reasons why Wu Mo felt that they were only suited to work together: She was incredibly calm.
Thanks to his previous experience and intellect, the production speed of this potion was very fast.
Three days later, the new Life First was finally completed.
Wu Mo was also ready for the inoculations.
Before the test began, Wu Mo took off his clothes and changed the life-support equipment and oxygen delivery device.
Xu Wanqing sat at the side and made preparations for him.
“Chief Engineer Wu, we’ve already obtained the results of your genetic sequence measurement. As a pure Chinese, coupled with your outstanding physique, the effects of Life First will be maximized on you,” Xu Wanqing told him.
Wu Mo nodded to express his understanding.
