Wang Wei couldn't help but ask in confusion.
"Shouldn't the superpowered individuals you're talking about be those who can control fire, water, or space and time?"
Ru Xuan's face darkened, and she looked at Wang Wei with a hint of helplessness, saying with disdain...
"I think you've been reading too many novels. Do you really think those ethereal things are so easy to control? If such an ability truly existed, China could simply send people to enemy countries and create natural disasters in no time. Then we could just sit back and win..."
"Then what kind of superhuman are you talking about? Don't superhumans possess these kinds of abilities?"
Wang Wei instinctively offered his defense…
"You're wrong, and terribly wrong. This is the real world, not a magical world. You have to be scientific in everything you do..."
This location is the largest life research institute in China. We study various organisms here and have synthesized some biological agents. These agents will have different effects on different people...
For example, after using the biological agent, my strength increased greatly. Combined with my ancient martial arts skills, catching bullets with my bare hands would be no problem...
Wang Juelong, on the other hand, received a physical enhancement. He hadn't fully absorbed the potion yet; once he did, his strength would definitely experience a dramatic leap forward…
There are also some strange and unusual abilities, such as people who shed their skin every day, people whose farts are so smelly they can poison people, people with exceptional intelligence, and people with skin as strong as steel...
This is the superpower I was talking about. We can't develop reliable biological agents, and we can't control the direction of superpower awakening, which makes many people hesitant to inject themselves..."
Hearing Ru Xuan's explanation, Wang Wei finally understood the composition of this department. Thinking back to the conversation between Wang Juelong and Qi Laoliu, he also understood why Qi Laoliu avoided people with superpowers so much; nobody wants to be poisoned by a fart…
This thing isn't very harmful, but it's extremely insulting, and most importantly, you can't afford to lose face like that...
If someone asks you how you got poisoned, would you have the nerve to say you were hit by a fart?
"I don't have any superpowers, what use is it for you to summon me?"
Hearing Wang Wei's words, Ru Xuan couldn't help but complain.
"You call this no superpower? You knocked down a super soldier like me who was enhanced with biological agents, and you call this no superpower? How else do you expect to have superpowers? We recruited you because we value your strength, not because you're a poor loser with money."
"etc…"
Wang Wei objected, and looking at Ru Xuan, he said with great bravado.
"I'll tell you right now, my superpower is being rich..."
Hearing Wang Wei's words, Ru Xuan pouted and said...
"You really have the nerve to say that? Since your superpower is money, could you sponsor our biological drug research and development?"
"How much…"
Wang Wei didn't waste any time and went straight to asking him how much money he needed...
"Seeing you like this, if you could sponsor 100 million, I'll grant you one request..."
Ru Xuan said nonchalantly, she never really thought Wang Wei could come up with a hundred million...
"One hundred million for a single request? That's way too expensive..."
Wang Wei couldn't help but make a comment, which prompted Ru Xuan to retort.
"Do you know what my request means? Even the head of state can't ignore my request, and it's not impossible for you to become mayor tomorrow..."
Holy crap…
Wang Wei sighed inwardly, but lacking in education, he could only express his frustration with a single "Holy crap!"
Power is such a wonderful thing; even becoming mayor isn't a problem...
However, Wang Wei had no such need; he had no interest in becoming an official, and most importantly, he lacked the ability to do so…
However, this also proves that Ruxuan's request was indeed very valuable...
"Can I make a few more requests?"
Wang Wei felt that it was like the turtle in the wishing well; there was nothing wrong with making a few more requests. You could come and make a wish anytime, and it would always come true—how wonderful…
If Ruxuan knew that this guy was treating him like a turtle in a wishing well, she would definitely jump up and fight Wang Wei to the death again. A scholar can be killed but not humiliated, and she would also retort by saying that his whole family are turtles...
"Don't push your luck. You can't even meet one request, yet you want more? You're really good at bragging..."
Ruxuan, her face dark with disdain, said...
When had Wang Wei ever been treated like this? He quickly said...
"Let me just show you my account balance. You can calculate for yourself how many requests I can grant you..."
After Wang Wei finished speaking, he showed Ru Xuan his account balance. When Ru Xuan saw the eight zeros following the four-digit number, she was stunned. Wasn't this a bit too low a price to pay?
"Your money management skills are indeed quite impressive..."
Ru Xuan murmured, this was the first time she had ever seen so much money, it would be a lie to say she wasn't shocked...
How much research funding are you planning to allocate?
Ruxuan looked at Wang Wei with burning eyes. The research on biopharmaceuticals was currently lacking funding; otherwise, it wouldn't have been stuck there without any results. If Wang Wei could provide a large amount of funding, perhaps there would be a breakthrough in biopharmaceuticals soon…
"This money is currently frozen. You should know my situation; I'm under immense pressure from the Wang family. If you can get the Wang family to back down, it's not impossible for this money to be used entirely for research. However, I need to carefully consider your more than 1,700 requests. After all, making a promise worth 100 million should be done with caution..."
Wang Wei said with a serious expression…
"Don't worry, once you join the Dark Division, all your information will be top secret, and even the Wang family won't be able to target you..."
Ruxuan said confidently...
Hearing about the benefits, why hesitate? Wang Wei originally wanted to control the Wang family to solve his current predicament, but he had no chance to get in touch with the core members of the Wang family, and those small fry were useless, so he had never done so...
Now, by simply joining the Dark Side, all crises can be resolved. This deal is really tempting...
Most importantly, his money came too quickly, and he became numb to it; it was just a number. Taking it out now would not only win Ru Xuan's favor but also help China progress—a win-win situation. How could he refuse?
"Alright, I'll join, but I have one condition: I'm used to being free and don't like being tied down, you know what I mean..."
Hearing Wang Wei's words, Ru Xuan felt helpless. She thought to herself that this Lao Liu was a real scoundrel, unwilling to contribute anything except money. But there was nothing she could do; after all, he was rich.
"Don't worry, if there really is a mission, I'll discuss it with you beforehand..."
Having received Ru Xuan's assurance, Wang Wei nodded in satisfaction, then immediately looked at Ru Xuan with a mischievous grin and said...
"Since you've agreed to one of my requests for 100 million, could I possibly get an advance on one of them?"
Looking at Wang Wei's lewd appearance, Ru Xuan had a bad feeling...
