657 Hot Sales in the Store
Professor Corrick could not accept the fact that their bodily fluids were normal.
The third result concerned their hair and hormone levels. Those were completely normal too!
The world was instantly shocked. Those who saw this went into an uproar.
Everyone knew that the outcome of the bet had been decided. Wu Mo had won without a doubt.
Professor Corrick, on the other hand, had lost the bet and his dignity.
Everything he understood had been turned on its head.
Although he was not wrong from a biological standpoint, everyone knew that the truth mattered most.
It was a fact that the ten volunteers were all incredibly glad after they took the Super Satiety Potion.
There was nothing wrong with their bodies, and all their data came out normal!
Under such circ.u.mstances, Corrick was completely defeated.
“Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! How could I be wrong? If I’m wrong, then biology is wrong too!”
Corrick refused to accept defeat and issued a statement to the magazine.
He believed that Wu Mo must have used some unknown power to challenge biological science.
If he was wrong, then the biological science that humans learned was wrong.
Following his conclusion, Wu Mo merely smiled and said to a group of confused researchers, “I’d like to make an announcement that reads as follows…”
Then, Wu Mo declared, “If biological science contradicts today’s facts, then it’s undoubtedly wrong. In fact, biological science itself is incomplete. It doesn’t fully reveal the true face of the universe.”
These words were like a bolt from the blue, but everyone acknowledged Wu Mo’s point of view.
“The science we pursue is, indeed, based on our understanding of the world around us. If science is wrong, it would be more accurate to say that we lack understanding!”
Everyone agreed with this, especially Wu Mo.
They all knew that Corrick had been defeated, but he was in denial. It was obvious that he was unwilling to accept defeat!
Such ungentlemanly behavior was truly disappointing.
According to their previous agreement, Corrick had to publish an official apology in a world-renowned magazine. But he never did so.
Wu Mo knew that Corrick was obviously concerned about his reputation, hence he found it difficult to write an apology.
However, none of this seemed important. The moment the results of their bet came out, the sales of all the potions on China’s official website began to increase dramatically!
“Wow, Chief Engineer Wu! We sold more than twenty thousand bottles of potions today. This is really shocking!” a researcher said in surprise and joy.
“That’s to be expected,” Wu Mo replied with a smile. “The bet with Corrick has greatly boosted their sales.”
At the rate they were selling, Wu Mo estimated that he would complete the goal he had set in a maximum of ten days.
Besides, the ships from Dark Star would not be able to reach Eternal Sun in ten days.
Even if they arrived ten days later, Wu Mo would not be afraid.
On the tenth day, Corrick still did not withdraw his statement.
Therefore, Wu Mo handed the matter over to China’s Science Department.
He would let them negotiate with Corrick and urge him to issue an apology as soon as possible.
At the same time, Wu Mo began to implement his original plan on the base.
It was an incomparably huge s.p.a.ceship.
If the giant ships on the sea were called aircraft carriers, then this giant s.p.a.ceship that soared in the starry sky could be called an aerial aircraft carrier!
This huge s.p.a.ceship was equivalent to a mobile supply base.
Wu Mo named it the Replacement.
The name represented the fact that this s.p.a.ceship had surpa.s.sed everything they previously knew and surpa.s.sed the limits of human technology!
The Replacement carried the hope of all mankind. It was about to conquer the universe and fight against alien civilizations.
Of course, there would be a grand press conference for the Replacement’s birth. It was of great significance after all.
Once the entire world learned that China had created a huge s.p.a.ceship that was comparable to a s.p.a.ceship carrier, everyone was stunned.
“Heavens! The Replacement? That name sounds pretty threatening!”
“Yes. Plus, Chief Engineer Wu created it. How can it be bad?”
“Ah, I can’t wait to see the Replacement’s true face!”
Reporters from all over the world arrived at the press conference.
Before long, the Replacement’s model appeared on the screen.
Everyone instantly fell silent. No one spoke as they fixed their eyes on the screen.
The Replacement’s size was mind-blowing!
Even though it was just a model, viewers could still sense how big it was.
Based on the model, the normal s.p.a.ceships of the past paled in comparison to the Replacement.
It was ten times bigger than those regular s.p.a.ceships!
“Oh, my G.o.d. The antimatter propulsion system of such a big s.p.a.ceship has to be very powerful. China has made great technological progress again!”
Experts from other foreign Scientific Research Departments could not help but sigh.
Even if they worked as fast as they could, they would not be able to catch up to China.
The distance between them was not decreasing. In fact, it was increasing like a spring being pulled taut.
“Listen up. I have some shocking news to share with everyone. The Replacement will carry nearly one hundred combat mechs. If necessary, these mechs will engage with the extraterrestrial creatures in intense combat!”
Wu Mo’s declaration shocked everyone. The atmosphere was as cold as winter.
A brave reporter stood up and asked suspiciously, “Mr. Wu, how is that possible? I thought that mechs are used to fight sea monsters? How can they guarantee our safety in s.p.a.ce? How can they fulfill the conditions for close combat?”
His questions undoubtedly expressed everyone’s confusion.
Wu Mo smiled. “Mechs are our trump cards. If the situation permits, they’ll remain hidden within the Replacement.”
This explanation enlightened everyone. They realized that Wu Mo did not intend to let his mechs fight in s.p.a.ce as the main force. They were just there in case things took a turn for the worse!
Wu Mo was a true visionary.
Everyone knew he was great at careful planning.
His work was always impeccable. In addition, people admired his comprehensive consideration of all aspects.
‘Placing so many mechs in a large s.p.a.ceship should give a shocking effect at a critical moment, right?’ a reporter thought to himself.
He mustered up his courage and stood up to ask a question that he had wanted answered for a long time.
“Mr. Wu, Dark Star’s s.p.a.ceships will arrive at Eternal Sun in a few days. Should we send all our weapons and equipment to our Eternal Sun base in advance?”
Everyone was concerned about this.
Right now, Dark Star had ten high-tech s.p.a.ceships.
Their combat systems were quite advanced.
Under such circ.u.mstances, China had to plan ahead and lead the world to victory!
