Chapter 716: Chapter 361 Hell Sect_2
Although research on the Life Essence has been exceptionally slow, the weakened third generation Life Essence can now be produced on a large scale.
Its effects cannot reverse aging, but it can significantly improve existing research and medicine.
This news directly stunned all the pharmaceutical companies present.
They furiously waved their checks, claiming that no matter the cost, they would meet Lin Beichen’s demands if only he would speak.
Some wanted regional sales rights, while others wanted to monopolize the formula.
However, Lin Beichen remained calm, gazing at the mountains of money like piles of golden checks, he rejected all proposals and announced a collaborative approach.
Quantitative sales.
The third generation Life Essence released in each batch would be divided among regional sales companies according to the auctioned shares after a public auction.
These sales companies must be wholly held by Lin Beichen; they only enjoy the rights to the distribution profits but cannot interfere with any of the company’s affairs.
Lin Beichen could sell them Life Essence, but he could also directly order the shutdown of a sales company, prohibiting their sales.
This requirement was undeniably strict, yet no one present objected.
The reason was simple, currently, no one could compete with Lin Beichen; thus, they had to agree.
Whatever Lin Beichen demanded, they had to accept.
Unless someone researches and produces a second Life Essence.
The meeting surpassed its time by at least three hours; it was only reluctantly interrupted when everyone was extremely exhausted.
Everyone left hastily, rushing to file reports and update their headquarters on today’s situation.
Lin Beichen glanced at the sky but did not return to his dormitory; instead, he stayed at the professor’s villa in Huadu University.
As a key professor, Lin Beichen naturally had a villa allocated by the university.
Huadu University’s campus is very large and elegantly set.
The small villa is nestled by mountains and water, and the forest isolates any noise, making it a rare tranquil retreat.
Ruan Yunyun was busy drafting documents, tabulating problems and collaboration targets, and finally confirming the accuracy of contact methods.
She wished she could split herself into four people, yet despite working into the deep night, she hadn’t finished everything.
"Stop working, don’t put too much pressure on yourself."
Lin Beichen smiled, pouring a cup of hot tea for Ruan Yunyun.
His little assistant was highly capable and very ambitious, but also somewhat too introverted.
"Professor Lin, is your girlfriend particularly outstanding?"
Ruan Yunyun, holding the hot tea, said listlessly, resembling a koala.
Lin Beichen mildly smiled, saying nothing.
The atmosphere in the room seemed to grow a bit awkward.
Ruan Yunyun blinked, her delicate face blushing, suddenly wanting to slap herself.
Dammit, why did she ask such a question?
Lin Beichen suddenly looked out the window and calmly said:
"Someone’s coming."
Ruan Yunyun, upon hearing this, quickly put down the teacup and went to open the door.
The door opened, and outside stood an exceptionally handsome man, with a familiar person behind him.
Song Weiliang.
"Ruan Yunyun, why are you here?"
Song Weiliang’s complexion slightly changed, his voice almost squeezed from his throat, trembling slightly.
He was a smart person and quickly suppressed the malice and killing intent in his heart, forcing his gaze towards Lin Beichen, coldly saying:
"Professor Lin, this is my classmate, an eminent professor from Evergreen Ivy University, the youngest lifetime professor at the World Science Academy, and the latest recipient of the Planetary Research Award, Professor Caesar Du."
Before he finished introducing, Caesar Du had already walked in, full of arrogance, sitting on the sofa without waiting for Lin Beichen to speak, as if he were the owner of the place.
Caesar Du, without hesitation, poured himself a cup of hot tea, took a sip, immediately disdainfully throwing it into the trash.
In Ruan Yunyun’s cold gaze, he ironically spoke in Dragon Country language.
"Mr. Lin, we’re people of the same world, so I won’t use my official identity."
Saying this, Caesar Du slowly extended a hand, with countless black insects seeming to dwell on the back of it, eventually forming a dark totem.
"I am the Abyssal Apostle, one of the twelve apostles of Hell, Caesar Du, pleased to meet you."
"After hearing about your deeds, I suspected you were not an ordinary person, and now it seems, indeed as I thought.
You are also an Extraordinary, but without family background, still unaware of what your abilities represent..."
"Caesar Du, when did you learn Chinese, why have I never heard you speak it before?"
Song Weiliang exclaimed in surprise.
Caesar Du didn’t even glance at Song Weiliang, as if he were merely an ant, unworthy of any response.
"Mr. Caesar Du, no matter your identity, you shouldn’t be so rude; this is not your place, but Professor Lin’s villa."
Ruan Yunyun said, excitedly.
Caesar Du.
This name is a superstar to all the young people aspiring in research worldwide.
Young, he became the most outstanding young person in the research field, with every published paper drastically changing the field, gathering countless research factors.
Like many girls, Ruan Yunyun also regarded Caesar Du as a research idol, imagining a beautiful fate with him through countless nights.
However, upon truly meeting Caesar Du, Ruan Yunyun felt extreme disappointment.
This person was too rude, utterly incomparable to Professor Lin.
Both world-class research professors, Professor Lin was courteous, kind, and always treated others equally; in contrast, Caesar Du was arrogant, treating everyone as fools in his eyes.
Such a person was unworthy compared to Professor Lin.
Yet Caesar Du only sneered at Ruan Yunyun’s words, not offering a rebuttal.
"Professor Lin, as a person of the Inner World, you should not be overly lenient with these mortals, they should understand their identity, know their insignificance, and never act presumptuously at any time!"
Caesar Du said coldly, his eyes flashing with dark light.
Ruan Yunyun, shrouded by the dark light, felt enveloped by infinite black ice, instantly paralyzed in place, trembling all over.
"Are you testing me?"
Lin Beichen squinted his eyes, thoughtfully.
"Professor Lin, don’t misunderstand, I’m here to invite you to join the Hell Sect."
Caesar Du straightened his expression, calmly stating:
"Every Extraordinary should join the Inner World; despite sharing a planet with mortals, we are the true masters. As a newcomer, you need guidance, and I believe we share a special connection."
"What if I refuse?"
Lin Beichen inquired again, his gaze growing exceedingly dangerous.
"Then I can only say unfortunate."
Caesar Du laughed heartily, his eyes gathering dark light.
"Your actions today have pushed you into a perilous situation. Do you really think these biotech corporations and pharmaceutical companies are harmless angels? Waving checks at your mercy, just to collaborate on sales?
At this moment, they have investigated your information thoroughly, found your weak points, and will use the most malicious means to breach your psychological defenses, even threatening the safety of your relatives and life, forcing you to hand over the Life Essence formula."
"These international biotech giants like to mask themselves as white-clad angels, but if you investigate closely, you’ll find their histories of origin are even more brutal than the demons in Hell!
Every drug development paid countless costs and lives before being released to the public!"
Caesar Du laughed heartily:
"Yet if you join the Hell Sect, we will deploy the most capable agents to protect you, no matter how powerful these companies and institutions are, they are no match for us."
Caesar Du extended a hand, the dark patterns on the back glowed green.
A black shadow seemed to appear behind him, reminiscent of a demon.
