Chapter 432 - 432 New Research Direction
432 New Research Direction
Wu Mo opened the system’s store page decisively.
Before he started, he needed to understand more.
“System, open the store!”
Wu Mo searched for the items he had found earlier.
[Beginner Human Life Potion: This medicine can be used on humans. After consumption, it can release special protein and activate a human’s blood system. It can extend one’s lifespan by up to 100 years and has the effect of rejuvenation!
[Selling price: Five million points. Prerequisites: Introduction to Human Life, Hematopoietic Stem Cell Science, Advanced Pharmaceutical Production!]
As the name suggested, this potion could prolong human life.
Its core ability was to regenerate human cells, thereby restoring the functions of various organs.
The biggest highlight was the extension of life expectancy by 100 years, extending the life expectancy of the elderly, who might die at the age of 80, to 180 years old.
This way, humans could live a lifetime longer.
“System, what is the effect of extending one’s lifespan by 100 years?”
“The specific effect depends on the individual’s const.i.tution. One’s lifespan can be prolonged by up to 100 years.
“If a person’s physique is not good enough, he can only prolong his life by 10 years, but there is a certain rejuvenation effect. It can make a person’s physique younger by a maximum of 20 years.”
Wu Mo did not immediately decide on this plan. He pondered and said “I can use this drug in military applications to revive soldiers who are about to retire.”
“It may not be as effective on military personnel as it is on civilians, but it’s enough to deal with current issues. Unfortunately, I don’t have enough points. At present, I only have five million points. If I continue to study other things, my research progress may stagnate.”
“I’ve browsed the system’s store, so let’s take a look at the system’s customizations.”
[Tailored research and development: Enter the project or technical requirements here, and the system will automatically develop it according to the required factors. Different requirements will consume different points!]
With that, Wu Mo quickly began to customize it.
[Project Requirements: Research and develop a device that can increase the lifespan of humans on the Blue Planet!]
The system provided feedback soon after.
[Project creation completed. Initial requirement: 50 million points. Your current points are insufficient. Unable to start R&D.]
Fifty million?
Was there a malfunction in the system?
The potion earlier only sold for five million points. How did it suddenly jump to 10 million?
‘Maybe I didn’t set a limit,’ Wu Mo thought to himself.
‘I should clarify the value of the increase in lifespan.’
“Again! This time, the restrictions are even stricter! Not only do we have to increase the lifespan, but we also have to specify the race. It’s best if it’s only used by the Chinese so that it doesn’t fall into the wrong hands.”
As a Chinese, Wu Mo naturally prioritized China.
Other items might be available for commercial use, but the lifespan-prolonging drug should not. That would cause endless trouble.
If the drug was used on old men, China would be in trouble.
[Project Requirements: Research and develop a cost-friendly life-increasing drug. It has to be suitable for the Chinese people, and the experimental carriers are all humans.
[It must have a certain rejuvenating effect. It should also be cost-friendly. If it is not possible to save points, pick the most suitable plan.]
Wu Mo made his request clear, and the system continued to provide feedback at an astonishing speed.
[Human Life Potion: According to your request, the system has developed a cost-friendly human life potion suitable for the Chinese people.
[The maximum lifespan that this medicine can provide is 30 years. It is suitable for people aged 30 and above. The principle is to stimulate cell division factors. At the same time, it has a certain rejuvenation effect. It can make one’s physique 20 years younger at most. The effect varies according to the user’s physique.
[Note: Requires two million points. You currently have enough points. Would you like to begin research immediately?
[Note: After injecting the Life Potion, the user must quickly enter a nourishment cabin and sleep to maximize the effect of the potion.]
Wu Mo pondered seriously.
“Nourishment cabin? It sounds pretty similar to the hibernation pods in movies.”
Actually, he could have chosen one of the system’s readymade plans instead of a customized plan.
However, this was his first time in the field of biology. The plans given by the system were often conservative, and they might not meet his expectations. Therefore, Wu Mo decided to customize one.
“Two million points isn’t a lot. Now, one project can give me millions of points.”
The system quickly responded.
[The product, Human Life Potion, has been successfully selected!
[The research and development of the product, Human Life Potion, has officially begun!]
The next moment, a familiar R&D interface appeared before Wu Mo.
[Human Life Potion: Increases the lifespan of humans. It is especially suitable for Chinese people and has a certain rejuvenating effect. (Development progress: 0%)
[Requires auxiliary facility: Nourishment cabin!]
[Prerequisite technology: Comprehensive theory of human lifespan extension, reactivation theory of blood-forming system, advanced drug manufacturing technology, and theory of nourishment cabin manufacturing!
[As this product is custom-made, every 10,000 points will increase the development progress by 1%. Self-mastery of the prerequisite technology will reduce the points required for research and development!]
“Let’s start researching the prerequisite technology now!
“I’ll end my vacation at home as soon as possible and return to Research Laboratory No. 261.”
During the past few days of learning, Wu Mo did not find the biology field particularly difficult to deal with.
This was all thanks to his years of experience in scientific research, as well as his mature scientific and worldview.
In addition to the theoretical and experimental data provided by the system, he had achieved remarkable results in just a few days.
“It’s truly not easy to delve into other fields.
“Basic knowledge cannot be ignored.
“This biotechnology is obviously beyond modern. I need to consolidate the knowledge of this era’s biotechnology first.”
While he learned the system’s prerequisite techniques, Wu Mo also spent more time on the basics.
The study room at home was filled with comprehensive books on the fields of medicine and biology.
A few days later, Wu Mo finished his studies and sighed with emotion.
“It’s not simple. I feel like my intelligence is limited, and I have to think of a way to improve myself.
“I still have to rely on the system.
“I’ll be able to return to Research Laboratory No. 261 after half a month of rest.”
Half a month later, Wu Mo and Xu Wanqing met at the entrance of Research Laboratory No. 261.
Being an outstanding blacksmith, she entered the laboratory as Wu Mo’s a.s.sistant.
The two returned to the courtyard together.
Wu Mo’s return made the entire research laboratory boil.
With his outstanding talent, many of the laboratory’s members worshiped him.
During his lunch break, he was surrounded by everyone.
“Leader Wu, you’re amazing. You’re my idol!”
“That’s right. Your s.p.a.ce device is too magical. It’s the most advanced weapon device on Earth. It’s thousands of times more powerful than the Dragon Shield device!”
“Leader Wu, are you still accepting disciples?”
“Are you trying to become Leader Wu’s disciple? Stop dreaming!”
Wu Mo was touched as he faced the crowd’s warm welcome.
“Thank you for your praise. If there’s an opportunity in the future, I’ll definitely work with you on a research project!”
This was a greeting and a promise.
