Bai Ting was shocked when she heard this. "You mean..."
"There has been no movement from the Nirvana Guild during this period. If we don't have the strength, they will naturally think that we can't come up with anything new. But we are very strong, so they will think that we are hiding something from them." Yang Jia said.
In fact, this idea is not wrong, because what the Nirvana Guild is currently researching is indeed not something that can be told to outsiders.
Thinking about it this way, the six major guilds are not wronged.
"Then what should we do?" Bai Ting asked.
Yang Jia said thoughtfully, "Since we're seeking an explanation, then just tell them. The more we reason, the clearer the truth will be. We haven't done anything wrong, so we're not afraid of people coming to our door to reason with us."
Bai Ting looked at her and sighed softly. If she had to negotiate with anyone else, Yang Jia was naturally the most suitable person. Although she had said that out of anger before, now that she saw Yang Jia, she felt that such a momentary outburst of anger was unnecessary.
The fundamental purpose of the DIE virus is to transform the human body, a process that inevitably consumes the body's essential energy and places a tremendous burden on it. Therefore, although Yang Jia had only been infected for a short time, he had lost a lot of weight, his energy and spirit were completely different from before, and he spent most of his days in agony.
If not for this, they would not have forced Yang Jia to rest.
Now, because of this matter, Yang Jia has to deal with those who are looking for trouble while suffering from illness.
Bai Ting naturally felt bad.
Yang Jia himself, however, didn't mind it at all, and even looked quite interested. "It's not good to keep the guests waiting. Let's start preparing now. We must make sure they feel at home when the time comes."
Bai Ting's inner feelings immediately disappeared. "I think you're just too bored and just waiting for someone to come and relax you, right?"
"You figured that out already." Yang Jia couldn't help but smile. "If I keep lying like this, I'll be ruined. Do you believe that a little water can make mushrooms grow?"
Joking aside, Bai Ting still planned to prepare a new outfit for Yang Jia. Although Yang Jia's current thin figure probably wouldn't have much aura no matter what he wore, he was still the de facto leader of the Nirvana Guild and couldn't afford to tarnish his reputation.
Perhaps because she finally had something to do, Yang Jia seemed much more energetic. Finally emerging from the quarantine area, she couldn't help but wander around, inquiring about the progress of various matters. It was clear that everything was in perfect order; even without her, everyone was doing a great job.
When she arrived at the lab, she found that the once bustling experimental scene had disappeared. Although everyone here had serious expressions and hurried steps, and it looked very strict, there was almost no sign of the experimental scene. She couldn't help but stop and ask, "How far has the experiment progressed?"
"It's still in progress." Du Qing said vaguely.
Yang Jia frowned, already having a guess in his mind, "Why don't I see anyone doing experiments, and there don't seem to be any animals here."
"Because most of the experimental groups have been eliminated, only a few groups are still continuing. Haven't there been a lot of news recently? They have formed an alliance on the surface and are here to cause trouble, but they may not be obedient in secret. In order to avoid being spied on, the remaining experimental groups have increased the confidentiality level, divided into different laboratories, and are no longer concentrated together." Du Qing paused slightly and replied quickly.
This statement made sense and should be without any problems. But since she had her doubts, it was impossible for them to be dispelled so quickly. She turned to look at Du Qing and said, "Can I go and take a look? Any experimental group will do."
Du Qing was speechless. Her previous remarks were simply a hasty blunder, so Yang Jia couldn't possibly watch them. "The experiments have been critical these past few days, so we shouldn't mess things up. Let's wait until we have the results."
"Is there something you don't want me to see?" Yang Jia smiled and said without letting anyone know. "Let's go. Lead the way. Let's go take a look."
Du Qing glanced at Bai Ting standing behind Yang Jia and saw that she was also helpless. She had no choice but to lead the way to an unremarkable laboratory nearby. As soon as Yang Jia entered the room, she saw the person lying on the bed, confirming her suspicion.
The experiment progressed much faster than she expected and had already entered the human trial stage, but no one informed her and directly selected the experimental subjects to start the research.
Yang Jia knew why, but she was still a little unhappy. She turned around and looked at the person following her without saying a word.
"A few days ago, the experiments on animals reached the deadline. Currently, there are no problems with these animals. Time is running out, so we will continue to observe them while starting to conduct experiments on players. The progress is currently going smoothly." Du Qing gave a brief explanation.
Normally, human experiments wouldn't be conducted so frivolously. Without years of research, stable experimental results, and sufficient clinical data, how could anyone dare use the drug on humans? But they couldn't afford to delay now, especially with nearly 100,000 NPCs.
In reality, Yang Jia couldn't wait any longer than they did, but precisely because of this, she was even more worried about them moving too fast. She was silent for a moment before asking, "Why didn't you notify me?"
Du Qing was about to explain, but Bai Ting spoke first, "I stopped you from saying it."
Seeing her angry face, Yang Jia couldn't help but feel helpless. "I haven't said anything yet, and you're already making a face. This is really the bad guy complaining first. Who was it that promised to tell me when the time came?"
"What difference does it make whether you tell me or not? We can't do the experiment on just you. We'll still need volunteers in the end. One more or one less won't make a difference." Bai Ting said, "You should know that you have more important responsibilities."
"but……"
Yang Jia was about to say something, but was interrupted by Bai Ting, "Alright! We didn't just randomly arrest anyone for research. We explained the pros and cons in detail and got their permission."
Having said this, she paused, then gritted her teeth and said, "You're not the only one who has the spirit of dedicating yourself to humanity. You've done enough. You should give others a chance to show their talents, right?"
Her tone sounded fierce, but her words meant nothing like that.
Yang Jia looked at her for a while, lowered his head and smiled, "Okay, you've said everything. You're right, I can't do everything by myself." In the current situation, after the six major guilds formed an alliance, no one knew when they would send people, and she really couldn't be free to be an experimental subject.
So Yang Jia took a deep breath, looked at the door for a while, and then turned around and said, "Show me the experimental data."
She might not have understood this kind of thing before, but now things are different. After regaining her original memory, even if Yang Jia doesn't dare to do it herself, she has no problem just looking at the experimental report and various data.
In fact, she sometimes thought it was incredible. No matter how she looked at it, she didn't think she had any qualities of a researcher. Even before she regained her memories, she had participated in discussions in the laboratory, but she didn't realize that she had any talent in this area.
Therefore, Yang Jia never felt real about this matter.
This thought flashed through his mind, and Yang Jia quickly focused his attention on the data in front of him.
One had to admit that Du Qing was incredibly capable. Even in this rushed situation, she still managed to ensure the accuracy of the data from each experiment, constantly making adjustments to ensure the multi-pronged experimental process went smoothly.
"Have you ever thought about going to Hope Star?" She couldn't help but ask as she put down the information.
The conditions on Hope are certainly harsh and dangerous, but for anyone passionate about research, it's a paradise, filled with unprecedented species, and any research could have a profound impact on the progress of human civilization.
And Du Qing's abilities should be fully utilized in such a place.
The surprise on Du Qing's face disappeared for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure and shook his head, saying, "I applied, but was rejected because my physical condition did not meet the requirements."
That's right. If your health is too poor, you probably won't even be able to survive space flight, let alone live on another planet. If you can't adapt to the local environment and climate, it will be even worse. However, Yang Jia believes that this situation won't last long, or that she and Li Bai won't let it continue for too long.
After knowing that he had another body in reality, Yang Jia immediately changed his previous plan of not interfering in Li Bai's affairs, and began to actively advise her, and of course, also make plans for the future of the two.
The current situation on Earth is so complex that Li Bai is severely constrained in everything he does. On the other hand, Hope Star, while a top priority for all parties, has very few core personnel. Instead, scientific researchers hold a dominant position.
For Li Bai, this is a good time to accumulate strength.
If she can seize the initiative and unite the entire population of the Hope Star Base, then she will naturally have more say when humans begin to migrate here in the future.
Of course, even with Li Bai's personal strength, achieving this wouldn't be easy. But if they could truly resolve the DIE virus within the game world, Li Bai would have a bargaining chip. If he could send enough researchers over there and gradually infiltrate the system, the results would be quite good.
