Do you desire eternal life? Come, negotiate with me. Do you wish for endless knowledge? Come, negotiate with me. Do you crave power beyond the mortal realm? Come, negotiate with me.
I am a me...
"Excuse me, you can't come near here." A bodyguard looked expressionlessly at the researcher in white.
The researchers, who were being stopped by the bodyguards, looked at them with puzzled expressions.
"I'm also from the research department. Is it alright for me to rest here for a bit?"
As she spoke, she showed her bodyguard her identification badge.
But the bodyguard remained expressionless as he spoke.
"I'm sorry, you can't come near here."
This sight infuriated the researcher, because the only place he wanted to rest was a tree, not some important research site.
So being rejected by the bodyguard like that made the researchers feel a little embarrassed.
He blushed and spoke to the bodyguard.
“I am a researcher in the research department, and my authority in the research department should be higher than yours, so I am now ordering you to let me rest for a while somewhere.”
Upon hearing this, the bodyguard first glanced lightly at the back of his ID badge.
Upon discovering that it was a new researcher, he immediately snorted coldly.
"Excuse me, but I am Professor Ye's personal bodyguard, so my authority is higher than yours. I also have the right to eliminate any threat unconditionally. So if you make me feel threatened, I will choose to get rid of you."
The bodyguard's eyes were very serious, and it was clear from them that he was not joking at all.
The researcher was startled by the cold language.
Then, bewildered, he took a step back.
At that moment, another voice suddenly rang out.
"Xiao Chen, what's wrong?"
The researchers, who were being called out to Xiao Chen, felt as if they had found a savior and shouted loudly.
"Teacher, Ye Yi's bodyguards are deliberately making things difficult for me and won't let me rest."
The sound was so loud that it immediately attracted the attention of many researchers in the laboratory.
These people all stopped what they were doing and looked at Xiao Chen and his bodyguard.
However, some people's eyes were filled with surprise, while others' eyes were filled with laughter and schadenfreude.
They all watched the two of them with expressions of anticipation, as if they were watching a good show.
"Comrade, what happened?" At this moment, an elderly man with white hair appeared between the two.
The old ancestor should have been very old, but his appearance was obviously very young, with the look of a child with white hair.
Upon seeing this, the bodyguard instantly understood that this old man was definitely a heavyweight researcher in China, which explained his current appearance.
This is clearly the appearance of someone who has taken enhancement potions, so this old man must be a top-tier figure in terms of both merit and ability.
Faced with such an elderly man, the bodyguard became noticeably more serious. He first saluted before speaking.
“Old sir, your disciple has been trying to break into the place I am guarding. I refused him and warned him.”
"Was that a warning? You clearly really want to kill me."
Xiao Chen vented his inner fear.
Upon hearing their conversation, the old man clearly frowned and then said.
"You mean, we researchers aren't allowed to go in here?"
"Yes, according to the orders I received, no one is allowed to enter this area."
The bodyguard remained expressionless as he spoke.
The old man was also clearly hesitant.
Just then, Xiao Chen, who was standing to the side, spoke up.
"Teacher, this is hardly an important place. If it were, why would it be located in the laboratory? It's obvious that Ye Yi sent this person to make things difficult for us. He doesn't want to see us enter the research department."
The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere at the scene instantly became strange.
The bodyguard's eyes, in particular, were full of threat as he looked at the two of them.
Of course, many researchers who originally belonged to the research department were also filled with anger.
It seemed that Xiao Chen had said something outrageous that made them very angry.
Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, the old man's face instantly darkened, but this dark expression was not meant for the bodyguard.
Instead, he scolded Xiao Chen beside him.
"Don't talk nonsense about things you don't understand. Is Professor Ye's name something you can call out to anyone? What right do you have to question a scientist who has made contributions to China? Now, immediately, go back to your room and reflect on your actions."
Xiao Chen was instantly startled by his teacher.
Seeing the teacher's gloomy face, Xiao Chen lowered his head and silently walked towards his room.
After seeing Xiao Chen leave, the old man's expression softened, but he still raised his head and asked the bodyguard.
"May I ask why people are not allowed to approach this place?"
Upon hearing the old man's question, the bodyguard hesitated for a moment, because he knew why this place was off-limits to others, but he didn't know what to say.
Just as the bodyguard was at a loss, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Professor Qian, Professor Ye is looking for you. He will tell you why."
Shi Qiao appeared here and said that behind him stood several enhanced humans.
After Shi Qiao gave him a look, the group, along with the original bodyguard, walked to the spirit tree, picked it up, and prepared to move it away.
Old Qian did not stop him, but nodded slightly at the stone bridge and said.
"Lead the way."
Shi Qiao immediately and respectfully led the way in front of Qian Lao.
…………
Upon seeing Shi Qiao and Mr. Qian enter his office, Ye Yi immediately jumped up from his seat, walked up to Mr. Qian, and respectfully greeted him.
"Old Qian."
Upon seeing Ye Yi, Old Qian immediately smiled and said with a chuckle.
"You must be Old Ye's grandson. You've grown so much, and your abilities far surpass those of this old man. From now on, the future of our Dragon Kingdom truly rests on your shoulders."
"Mr. Qian, you're too kind. There are actually a few things I need to ask you to do for me by inviting you here today."
Ye Yi said respectfully.
Ye Yi held Qian Lao, who belonged to the same generation as his grandfather, in high esteem.
After all, they have endured countless hardships for this Dragon Kingdom and made outstanding contributions to its strength.
Therefore, Ye Yi respected these people greatly, both personally and in terms of public principles.
"If there's anything we old folks can do to help, just say so. We may be old, but we still have some abilities."
Mr. Qian agreed, because he saw the future of the Dragon Kingdom in Ye Yi.
"Then I'll tell you."
"Go ahead and say it."
“Okay, I hope that you, Professor Qian, can take over my current position as the head of the research department.”
The moment these words were spoken, the scene fell silent. Even Shi Qiao stared in disbelief at Ye Yi, who had uttered those words.
Because he had no idea that Ye Yi actually wanted to resign from his position as head of the research department.
It's important to know that the position of Minister of Scientific Research is extremely prestigious in the entire Dragon Kingdom.
He seemed to have surpassed the director of the research institute, so Shiqiao was filled with incomprehension after hearing Ye Yi's words.
After hearing this, Mr. Qian was silent for a moment before speaking.
"You rascal, tell this old man what's on your mind. I'm making a decision."
"Hehe, I knew you'd understand, Professor Qian. I just want to be a simple researcher studying supernatural powers, and I don't want to get involved in other things, as that would waste my time. Professor Qian, look at what the entire research department has become under my management. So I hope you can help me out."
Ye Yi chuckled and said.
It was clear that Ye Yi had spoken his mind.
"Why didn't you tell the organization before? I believe the organization will definitely consider it."
Mr. Qian thought for a moment and asked in confusion.
"That's because we didn't wait for you to come. I wouldn't feel comfortable letting anyone else come. Only you can keep the current research department in check. Right now, the entire research department is in complete chaos."
"Okay, I understand. I will help you manage the research department well, as long as you don't mind this old man."
Mr. Qian also spoke up.
Qian Xuesen had long heard about the chaos within the research department. As the department was headed by Ye Yi, the people in the department had a sense of pride that other departments did not have, which was why things were like this.
Upon hearing Ye Yi's words, Old Qian instantly understood that this situation arose because Ye Yi lacked the energy to manage the department.
Qian Lao was quite confident about this matter, after all, he was the previous director of the research institute. It was only because his health deteriorated and he could no longer get out of bed that Yan Zhengnan became the current director of the research institute.
Now that Ye Yi's enhancement potion has appeared, these older generation researchers are able to devote themselves to scientific research once again.
Therefore, Qian Lao was still very happy with Ye Yi.
After all, without Ye Yi developing this strengthening potion, Old Qian might have been lying in a hospital bed, closing his eyes in pain.
It would have been even more impossible to see the incredibly powerful Dragon Kingdom that exists in the world today.
Because of the extraordinary power of the Dragon Kingdom, it is now recognized as the world's leading power.
After all, the powerful deterrent force of individuals has made all countries in the world aware of the terror.
The fact that a superhuman single-handedly beheaded a head of state made the power of superhumans even more terrifying.
Of course, some countries want to actively block the power of superhumans, but superhuman power is related to the ability to live forever.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to prohibit the power of superhumans.
Therefore, these countries have all tacitly acknowledged the Dragon Kingdom as the leader.
"Then thank you very much, Elder Qian. And please don't mind what happened earlier. That sapling is an extraordinary sapling, which may be related to the future of our martial arts path. That's why all these people are so nervous."
Ye Yi chuckled and offered an explanation, pointing to Shi Qiao and the others beside him as he spoke.
"It's alright, it's just that my disciple was being too unreasonable. He was my last disciple, and I originally thought the old man wouldn't live much longer, so I spoiled him too much, even more than my grandson. I never expected it to turn out like this."
"Old Qian, there's no need to worry too much now. After all, you have plenty of time now. Even in the future, you will live and die with the nation. As long as the Dragon Kingdom is not destroyed, we can live forever."
Ye Yi said with a smile.
Ye Yi's words caused a strange look of envy to flash in Old Qian's eyes, because immortality evoked a unique kind of doubt in everyone.
For someone like Qian Xuesen, retiring with the nation is an honor and an aspiration.
So after hearing Ye Yi's words, Old Qian nodded heavily.
However, Mr. Qian quickly frowned again and said.
"So, will the path of superhumans inevitably lead to immortality?"
"Well, based on my scientific model, it is now predicted that both gene enhancement and martial arts training will lead to immortality."
Upon hearing this, Old Qian frowned even more nervously, and then he immediately asked.
"According to basic biology, the stronger an individual becomes, the more difficult it is for them to reproduce. So, I wonder if there will be a population crisis in the future?"
Professor Qian's question instantly made Ye Yi and Shi Qiao gasp.
Because everyone is now caught up in the promise of a bright future, they have completely forgotten this enormous danger.
After all, as individuals become stronger, the ability to reproduce becomes increasingly difficult, so what Qian Lao said is indeed a huge problem.
In particular, the entire Dragon Kingdom now has a plan for everyone to become a dragon.
That is to make everyone in the entire Dragon Kingdom an extraordinary being.
This will also bring a huge fertility crisis to China.
"It was you, Mr. Qian, who enlightened me. I need to start this experiment immediately. I want to see if the path of the extraordinary will affect our future reproductive crisis."
Ye Yi stood up decisively and said.
"Yes, I'll get ready right away."
Seeing Ye Yi's appearance, Shi Qiao immediately rushed to make preparations.
As Ye Yi's personal bodyguard and part-time deputy, Shi Qiao was quite capable.
So upon hearing this, I instantly realized the seriousness of the matter.
And Mr. Qian also stood up and spoke.
"If you don't mind, I'll lend a hand. After all, I haven't been involved in research for a long time, and I might not be in the best shape right now. I'll be your assistant for now."
Upon hearing this, Ye Yi was taken aback for a moment, then quickly laughed.
"I couldn't be happier. With your help, it seems we'll be able to conduct the experiment very soon."
With Qian Xuesen's arrival, the entire laboratory was quickly prepared.
However, the extraordinary individuals within the entire Dragon Group subsequently received a perplexing order.
That means having a baby while you're resting.
The entire Dragon Group's superhumans were stunned, but when they saw that the statement was issued by Ye Yi and Elder Qian, they fell silent.
And then he started working in a strange way.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the entire Dragon Group became extremely strange.
Especially those couples with extraordinary abilities, when seen by people who know them, will whistle at them a few times.
After Ye Yi submitted the reasons for the experiment,
The entire leadership of the Dragon Kingdom also attaches great importance to this.
Because this concerns the future livelihood of the Dragon Kingdom.
