Chapter 455: Reverse Optimization
“Fang Heng, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” Fang Heng came back to his senses. He eagerly patted Tian Zhen’s shoulder. “To be honest, I’ve thought of a plan. Aren’t we short of money? Tell me, can we ask the Federation for money?”
“Hmm? Ask the Federation for money? What does that mean?”
Tian Zhen was baffled when he heard that.
“Hehe,” Fang Heng chuckled and whispered into Tian Zhen’s ear.
Tian Zhen had a strange expression.
“T-this would work?”
“But, but...”
“There are no buts. Leave the rest to me. You just need to prepare the follow-up materials.” Fang Heng took out a list from his pocket, “By the way, there’s also a new recruitment list for the Scavenger Army. Help me see if there’s anyone familiar...”
Tian Zhen was still a little suspicious as he took the list.
He knew about the list, but Fang Heng’s plan was too...
“Alright, you guys go ahead. Leave the rest to me.”
Fang Heng said as he pushed Tian Zhen and Zhong Lei out of the hall.
“Bang!”
The door to the hall was tightly shut. Zhong Lei and Tian Zhen could hear the sound of the door being locked.
Zhong Lei felt awkward. He turned to Tian Zhen and asked, “Commander, this...?”
Tian Zhen thought for a moment.
Now that things had come to this, he decided to continue trusting Fang Heng.
“You stay here. If Fang Heng needs anything, help him do it.”
“Okay.”
“If you have any news, let me know immediately.”
“Understood.”
...
The next day, Tian Zhen returned to the game shelter.
In the morning, he had just signed an agreement with a company to purchase the assets of the shelter in District 7 in installments.
Too many things had happened in District 7 recently, making him physically and mentally exhausted.
All the chaos and disorder had started when Fang Heng entered District 7.
Tian Zhen realized that Fang Heng’s thinking was a little off after his brief contact with Fang Heng over the past few days.
To be more precise, Tian Zhen felt that Fang Heng’s plan was a little unrealistic.
Perhaps cooperating with him was not the best plan?
No!
Tian Zhen braced himself and cleared the chaotic thoughts in his mind.
Since he had made his choice, he had to go all out!
“Commander.”
While he was thinking, Zhong Lei hurriedly pushed the door open and entered. “You’re finally back. Fang Heng needs a lot of construction materials and medicinal ingredients. He told us to make preparations in advance. He said that he would send a batch of materials over later, and he also told us to prepare to purchase the next batch of medicinal ingredients. He will provide us with the details of the medicinal ingredients in a while.”
“So soon?”
Tian Zhen frowned.
For this gamble, he had already applied for a loan from a financial institution. However, it was not so fast. The loan still needed some time to be approved.
Their capital chain was very tight. They had no spare money to buy medicinal ingredients.
“Yes, he is in a hurry.”
“Our current funds are simply not enough.” Tian Zhen frowned. “Forget it. I’ll go and talk to him.”
“Don’t go. He has already left.”
“He left?”
Tian Zhen was even more confused. Didn’t they agree to build a teleportation door inside their shelter? Why did he leave just like that?
Zhong Lei closed the office door behind him. He walked to the front of the office with excitement and whispered, “God Fang Heng used the teleportation passage to return to the main base of the Scavenger Army in the morning. When he left, he left us some blue crystal pieces.”
Tian Zhen was stunned.
“Wait, slow down. You mean, Fang Heng has already built the teleportation device?”
“Yes, yes, I saw it with my own eyes.”
In one night?
The teleportation passage was completed?
Tian Zhen didn’t believe it at first, but then he thought of the plan that Fang Heng said last night...
After being stunned for a long time, a smile appeared on Tian Zhen’s face.
“Good!”
This was good!
It turned out that he was too small-minded!
In that case, Fang Heng could really carry out that plan!
Tian Zhen sighed in his heart.
After so many years, he had finally found a good teammate!
Those teammates in the past, it was already fortunate that he did not have to help them wipe their asses.
Tian Zhen’s mood instantly improved, and the dejected look on his face disappeared.
He was extremely glad that he had made such an excellent choice.
No!
Tian Zhen suddenly stood up again.
He could not be an incompetent teammate who would drag him down!
“Zhong Lei, get ready. Gather all the people in the team that we can trust. We have urgent matters to do next, and we must not make any mistakes.”
“Yes!”
In Zhong Lei’s impression, Commander Tian Zhen had always been very calm. It was rare for him to show such great joy and sorrow like today.
“What are you waiting for? Settle it quickly!”
“But Commander, regarding the funding, we should...”
“Don’t worry. The Federation will help us solve the problem soon.”
...
At the Scavenger Army headquarters.
“Commander Fang Heng, I have completed the research and development of the vaccine body. We can start mass production now.”
“In addition, I have already reengineered the vaccine according to your request. The antibody potion extracted from the vaccine can take effect on the mutant worm body. Even if it is already invaded by the mutant worm body, the vaccine can immediately kill the mutant worm body that is parasitic in the body.”
“However, it is only effective at the initial parasitical stage. Once the parasite takes control of the host’s nerve center, the death of the mutant worm body will cause the death of the host body as well.”
Ding Min reported her work to Fang Heng in a serious manner. However, her face was still covered with a mask, which made Fang Heng feel a little strange.
[Hint: Player has obtained an item — Mutant Worm Body Injection.]
Item: Mutant Worm Body Injection.
Description: After injecting, the human body’s blood will contain a special antibody. The antibody will cause the mutant worm body to react, making the human body immune to the mutant worm body parasite.
Fang Heng held the completed sample of the injection in his hand and looked at it.
Good stuff!
With this thing, he could exchange it for three shelters from the Federation!
But...
It seemed to be a loss?
The three large-scale shelter materials were equivalent to giving his own fusion Tyrant form a big cut.
Fang Heng touched his chin and pondered for a moment, then turned his gaze to Ding Min.
Ding Min looked at Fang Heng. “You have other questions?”
“Uh, Dr. Ding Min, can you further optimize the effect of the injection?”
Ding Min refused, “There’s no need for that. The effect has already been pushed to the limit.”
“No, no, no. I mean, can you adjust it in the opposite direction to weaken the effect of the injection and change it to the temporary effective one?” Fang Heng gestured with his hand. “Oh, it is to change it to an injection that can only be effective after it has been parasitized.”
Ding Min showed a puzzled expression.
It was not the first time she had done drug research and development. It was the first time she had heard of such a strange request.
“Also, you must pay attention to confidentiality during research and development. Add a few more dispensable medicinal ingredients to increase the difficulty of cracking the formula. Can you do it?”
Ding Min looked at Fang Heng suspiciously.
She really couldn’t understand Fang Heng. He kept bringing up these strange requests.
It was still alright. The difficulty of changing it was almost nothing to her.
