In the dimly lit room, only a few wall lamps cast pale and weak light, barely illuminating a huge oak round table and the high-backed leather chairs around it.
Abstract paintings hang on the walls, their lines wild and unruly, their colors somber and chaotic.
The heavy curtains were tightly drawn, isolating the outside world and turning this place into a closed space, isolated from the world.
On the high-backed leather chairs beside the table, figures half-hidden in the darkness sat in various postures, silent, as if waiting for something.
The room had an eerie and quiet atmosphere, with the occasional tapping of fingers on the table echoing in the empty space, sending chills down one's spine.
With a "beep," a subtle yet clear electronic recognition sound rang out.
Immediately following, with a deep and powerful electromagnetic drive sound, the heavy electric door slowly started moving.
A slender, tall figure walked in against the light, accompanied by the "tap-tap" of high heels, and sat down in an empty chair in front of the conference table.
"Hehe, everyone's here, let's begin!"
A hoarse, unpleasant voice rang out.
As the words fell, the figures sitting in their various postures straightened up a bit.
"After rounds of competition, those who are capable of competing for the ownership of reagent number three are all here. Let's not waste any more time. Let's just state our strengths and let the most capable person win."
"It would be best to finalize the allocation of reagent number three today; it's been almost half a month already."
Then another slightly lazy voice rang out.
"I'll go first. I can submit three articles to the organization in world-class journals."
“I took on that mechanical intelligence project that had been vacant for a while.”
"All the data from my research on the application of third-generation semiconductor materials."
"Comprehensive upgrade plan for the air purification and circulation system of the Far North Base".
...
"Five hundred billion plus the latest achievements in biological gene modification technology!"
A cold, emotionless voice rang out in the room, suddenly chilling the atmosphere.
This is currently the only one where money is mentioned in the chips.
Money talks, and this applies even in a secluded place like God.
The operation of a global presence, the maintenance of major bases and laboratories, and breakthroughs in cutting-edge human technology research—all of these require massive amounts of capital to support them.
Money isn't everything, but you can't do anything without it.
Even God is no exception in this respect.
As expected, the entire room fell into a brief silence upon hearing this.
There's no way around it; although they're not short of money, most of them live deep in the area year-round, and few can be so extravagant.
"Hehe, as expected of Miss Chu, the head of a wealthy family is indeed different!"
At this moment, a man who looked young looked at the slender figure sitting opposite him and suddenly spoke.
"Rosso, I'll say it one last time, I'm definitely taking reagent number three!"
The slender figure sat up straight from the darkness, revealing half of her delicate and pretty face; it was Chu Liyue.
Her eyes were cold and indifferent, her voice was hard and cold, and she exuded a powerful aura like an empress.
The man sitting opposite him was named Vito Rosso, a brilliant medical scientist, one of the developers of Reagent No. 3, and also one of the strongest contenders for Reagent No. 3.
"Miss Chu, you are the developer and holder of Reagent No. 2, why do you need to compete with us for Reagent No. 3!"
Vito Rosso gave a cold smile and said indifferently.
My reasons for being myself are none of your business.
Chu Liyue showed him no respect whatsoever, replying coldly.
Vito Rosso frowned almost imperceptibly upon hearing this, and his gaze darkened.
He is an unparalleled medical genius; even among God, a place teeming with geniuses and eccentrics, he is an absolute standout.
Having grown accustomed to the admiring and envious gazes of others, he was quite displeased to have been repeatedly humiliated by this woman in recent days.
"This third reagent is renowned for its restorative effects; it can even restore the virginity of someone who has lost their primordial yang and yin."
"I heard Miss Chu has a boyfriend, hehe, could it be..."
Vito Rosso gave a sinister laugh, but before he could finish speaking, a dagger shot straight toward his throat with a whooshing sound.
Vito Rosso's pupils contracted sharply as he instinctively shifted to the side, dodging the fatal blow.
When he turned around, a long bloody gash was left on his face, from which streaks of blood oozed.
"Don't be so stupid!"
Chu Liyue stared at him with cold, emotionless eyes, a storm brewing within them.
With barely perceptible trembling, Vito Rosso lightly brushed the blood from his face, his gaze equally cold as he looked at Chu Liyue.
He saw an almost tangible killing intent in the eyes of this troublesome woman, and he thought that if they were in another place, she might have already killed him.
But coincidentally, at that very moment, his desire to kill the woman in front of him also reached its peak.
What he hates most is anyone touching his face!
This woman successfully enraged him!
"You can't just take the No. 3 reagent as you please. Since the bargaining chips are all here, let's report this directly and let the higher-ups decide the ownership of the No. 3 reagent!"
Vito Rosso said in a cold voice, his fists clenching unconsciously under the table.
Without waiting for anyone's reaction, he snorted coldly and left the room with a gloomy expression.
What a coincidence! He's also ordered this third reagent!
He was willing to use any means necessary...
