Li Fengnian shrugged and said, "This was my mistake. Mainly... We can't judge from the past. You should put yourself in my shoes and think about the situation at the time. After all, everyone only considers things from their own perspective. Differences in known information can cause different people to have completely different perceptions of the same thing.
When I first met you, I was truly shocked. I've never seen anyone as clean as you. Whether it was back in the Oasis of Life or during my journey from North America to settle in the surrounding areas of Qindao, I've never met a survivor like you who didn't smell any trace of pollution.
And you appeared before me, accompanied by Qin Yourong. In my understanding, Qin Yourong was just an ordinary Level 2 Awakener. I knew she must have a team behind her, but the fact that they allowed Qin Yourong to contact the Blackthorn Camp indicated that her team's strength was definitely limited.
This limited strength dooms the team to mediocrity. Add to that the Blackthorn Camp's inherent vulnerability, and under these circumstances, I suddenly encounter a unique existence like you, one I've never seen before even among the top factions. What do you think I'd think? Would I harbor some doubts?
Chen Yan pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly. "I do have doubts, but did this suspicion cause you to miss the perfect opportunity to force me to take the injection? After all, after I bought the Level 1 and Level 2 gene potions from you, I had already injected them all before we even left the Blackthorn Camp."
Li Fengnian sighed and said, "That's right. I only have one bottle of this potion. I have to think carefully before making a decision. Meeting you was an accident, but before I could think clearly, you were injected and became an Awakener.
Of course, even though you've become an Awakened, you still have a huge advantage over other Awakened. I can't smell any pollution on you. So compared to other Awakened, you're much cleaner.
In this case, I gave you the potion as a last resort, since it's the only one I have. Over the years, besides you, I've never met anyone else who could possibly make the potion have a real effect."
Chen Yan thought for a moment and then asked, "Then do you know what the effect would be if this medicine could produce an effect after injection?"
Hearing this question, Li Fengnian pondered for a moment, and after a while, he slowly nodded and said, "I don't know everything. I have explained the specific reasons to you before. When Life Oasis was developing this potion, they divided the research and development process into very detailed parts.
I was only responsible for one phase of research, and had no connection to the other phases. Although this approach significantly slowed down the overall progress of R&D, I have to say... at least in terms of confidentiality, this approach achieved excellent results.
However, through the research I was responsible for during that phase, I was able to roughly infer some of the previous research results. Although it is difficult to confirm the future research direction, I can at least make some basic guesses. So, I know some things, but it is not comprehensive.
At this point, Li Fengnian looked at Chen Yan seriously and continued, "The effect of the medicine should be a contagious virus, but in the structure of the medicine ingredients, I actually haven't found any tendency to be harmful to the human body. So calling it a virus... may not be accurate.
But besides being harmless to humans, its other characteristics are extremely similar to those of viruses, so I can only assume it is a virus. To be honest, at least in the phased research I'm responsible for, I haven't been able to see the specific function of this virus, which makes me very curious.
I gave you the potion because I know it's harmless. Plus, the Awakened's physical strength is far greater than that of an average person. Even an average person wouldn't have any problems injecting it, let alone an Awakened. So, I'm really curious about the potion's effects."
Chen Yan smiled and shook his head, saying, "I believe what you said is true, but the current situation seems... there is no need for me to take risks. If development at Kahn Company is not so smooth, then I might be willing to take the risk of injecting the potion to see its effect and whether it can help me change my fate.
But in reality, our development at Kahn Company has far surpassed even our best-case scenario expectations. We've already established a firm foothold within Kahn Company, and all we need to do now is rely on time and the vast resources of Kahn Company to improve ourselves. There's really no need to take any risks."
Li Fengnian wasn't surprised by this. A look of regret crossed his face as he spoke, "Then this potion will just sit there and go to waste. Besides you, I don't know anyone else in this world who can use it. It's incredibly rare to find someone like you whose body is uncontaminated. I have a question for you, and I hope you can answer it honestly."
"What's the problem?"
"What is the relationship between you and Purifying Dawn?"
"Purifying Dawn?"
"Yes! Whether it's your pure body or the teleportation abilities you demonstrated earlier, I really can't think of any other force in this world that can support you except the Purifying Dawn."
Looking at Li Fengnian's face full of determination, Chen Yan was speechless.
After a slight hesitation, he told the truth: "You may not believe it, but what I said is true. There is no connection between me and Purification Dawn."
This answer was beyond Li Fengnian's expectations.
After staring blankly at Chen Yan for a long while, Li Fengnian asked in confusion, "You have no connection with Purification Dawn? Then how do you explain what happened to you? Is there a sixth top power in this wasteland?! It shouldn't be..."
Chen Yan said sincerely, "As for the specific situation, because it involves some of my secrets, I'm afraid I can't explain it to you in detail. After all, although you are already half of our family, half is only half. You're still halfway to being a complete family member, right? I can't have absolute trust in you, and I believe you understand."
