Beast Tamer: The evolution path I made up has come true!

Chapter 85 The entire potion market will be reshuffled!

Professor Sun stood in front of the temperature-controlled chamber, staring at the sleeping No. 18, then turned to Su Mo and asked, "Xiao Su, have you finished your thesis?"

"It's already finalized."

Su Mo nodded and answered truthfully, "Before the broadcast, I sent the paper and the experimental data I have compiled to Director Xu for internal review."

"Sent it to Lao Xu? Good, very good!"

Professor Sun nodded after listening, then asked somewhat apologetically, "But... would it be convenient for me to take a look at your paper?"

"I've been researching the insectoid field for so many years, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to check and correct a few details for you."

Helping Su Mo correct the details was one thing, but seeing how amazing the medicine Su Mo produced made Professor Sun really eager to try it himself was another.

If Su Mo refuses, he will think of other ways to see Su Mo's paper.

"I would be more than happy if Mr. Sun were willing to help."

Upon hearing this, Su Mo smiled and replied, then tapped a few times on the terminal to forward the paper.

The title of the paper immediately appeared on the screen: "On the Enhancement of the Affinity of the Agent to the Wind Properties of the Green Velvet Worm".

Professor Sun put on his reading glasses and began to read it word by word.

The paper begins by citing experimental data left by Zhou Mingyuan: the activation effect of the juice from the tender leaves of *Breezegrass* on the wind-sensitive hairs of *Mammillaria elongata*, the rejection reaction of different wind-related materials to the body, and the energy flow generated after high-concentration wind crystal powder enters the insect's body...

Professor Sun had already seen most of this material, and some of it was even completed under his personal guidance by Zhou Mingyuan.

However, as the paper progressed, Professor Sun's expression gradually shifted from appreciation to amazement.

In the paper, Su Mo did not shy away from Zhou Mingyuan’s past failures. Instead, he reorganized the failed samples, pointed out the drawbacks of traditional catalytic agents forcibly suppressing wing buds, which would lead to energy stagnation, and then introduced the concept of element assimilation enzymes.

By extracting assimilating enzymes from shed downy hairs, establishing new guiding pathways, and generating energy demands through elongation training, the wind-attribute energy that originally flowed towards the wing buds is ultimately diverted throughout the body!

The theory is complete, the logic is closed, and the experimental data is incredibly clear.

As for the ingredients in the medicine formula, Su Mo noted their specific functions at the end.

Of course, Su Mo did not write down the amount of materials used or the extraction method.

Looking at the contents of the paper, Professor Sun continued to turn the pages with amazement in his eyes.

But when his gaze swept to the end and he saw the material cost of the regular version, his finger, which was swiping the screen, suddenly froze.

[Comprehensive material cost per vial: 473 yuan.]

[A total of three vials are expected to be used for the complete treatment.]

The total cost of materials for the complete treatment is 1,419 yuan.

Professor Sun stared at the string of numbers and fell silent.

After a while, Professor Sun finally realized what was happening and quickly flipped forward to re-examine the processing methods for several of the materials.

Tender leaves of *Breezegrass*, low-purity *Wind Crystal* powder, naturally shed hairs of *Microsorum pterosa*, basic insect-based nutrient solution...

The entire standard version of the potion did not use any rare materials; even the most expensive wind crystal powder was used in very small quantities.

Upon seeing this, Professor Sun's breathing became heavy, and he exclaimed, "This...this cost..."

"Xiao Su, is the cost budget in your thesis accurate? Are you sure you didn't omit any expensive main materials? Was the material used for number 18 just now...?"

"It's true. The potion I took during the live stream was the regular version."

Su Mo replied truthfully, "As for the premium version of the potion attached to the paper, it's just that the auxiliary medicinal materials have been replaced with milder rare resources. It's meant for people who don't mind having money."

"But in terms of core conversion rate, the difference between the two is actually less than eight percent."

"Moreover, the budget for this standard version is already generous. If the purification process can be optimized and industrialized for mass production, the cost can actually be reduced even further."

Upon hearing Su Mo's answer, Professor Sun was utterly astonished: "The younger generation is truly formidable... indeed, the younger generation is formidable!"

"To be able to concoct a potion with such an astonishing assimilation rate using the most common and ordinary materials... your talent in potion-making is simply enviable!"

"Xiao Su, you're not a graduate student yet, right? Do you plan to switch to pharmacy for your master's degree?"

"Pharmaceutics? Forget about that, I still quite like studying chemistry."

Hearing Professor Sun's question, Su Mo smiled and waved his hand.

Although evolutionary chemistry is a notoriously difficult major, now that I possess a system, why should I let it go to waste?

But after a brief moment of excitement and emotion, Professor Sun's expression turned serious, and he asked Su Mo, "Su, besides you and Lao Xu, who else has seen the complete contents of this formula?"

"I completed both the simulation and the allocation independently."

Su Mo responded, "The original formula is still in my personal terminal and the main unit in the mixing room."

After hearing Su Mo's answer, Professor Sun did not relax; instead, his expression became even more serious.

At this moment, Lu Junfeng sensed that something was wrong and couldn't help but ask, "Professor Sun, is there a problem with this paper?"

"There are no problems with the paper."

Professor Sun took off his reading glasses, slowly exhaled, and said, "The problem is that it's too good."

"Do you know how much an evolution resource that can reliably improve a pet's affinity attributes costs on the market right now?"

"Ordinary auxiliary materials cost tens of thousands, while resources that can truly change the property structure start at least in the hundreds of thousands or even millions!"

"Some rare materials from high-risk secret realms can even sell for tens of millions!"

At this point, Professor Sun pointed to the cost data on the screen: "And Su Mo's set of medicine costs less than two thousand yuan for a complete course of treatment."

"After the first attack, Number 18's wind attribute affinity soared to 45%!"

"If the next two experiments can replicate the current effects, what will happen after this drug enters the market?"

After listening to Professor Sun's explanation, and thinking about what might happen in the future, the joy on Lu Junfeng and He Ya's faces immediately froze.

Once Su Mo's potion is mass-produced, the entire wind-evolving evolution resource market will be reshuffled!

Those conglomerates who have long controlled the relevant secret realms, resource production areas, and potion companies would never stand idly by and watch their enormous profits be destroyed by a cheap formula!

"The live broadcast has now ended, and everyone has seen what happened on the 18th."

Professor Sun suddenly stood up and quickly said, "Fortunately, we still have the specific formula!"

"Xiao Lu, immediately disconnect from the external network and transfer core data to local storage with the highest level of encryption! Xiao He, shut down all wireless terminals! Until the patent application is completed, everyone is prohibited from connecting to the internet using any terminals!"

"understand!"

The two men straightened up and, without the slightest hesitation, immediately split up to carry out their tasks.

As researchers who participated in the entire project, Lu Junfeng and He Ya knew the dosage of the medicine better than anyone else.

Once Su Mo's research is implemented, they will surely be recorded in academic history as key contributors.

At this moment, they are already bound to Su Mo. For both public and private reasons, they will guard the secrets to the death and not allow the slightest mistake!

The sounds of keyboard typing mingled with the notification sound of the device losing internet access.

Sensing the change in atmosphere, Fugui, with his slippers in his mouth, silently stood guard in front of the laboratory door, his eyes sparkling like stars, like a guardian deity.

Seeing everyone's actions, Professor Sun took out his personal terminal and found a number in his contacts.

As soon as the call connected, a laugh came from the other end: "Old Sun... what brings you here today?"

"Old Cai, enough with the nonsense."

Professor Sun said directly, "I have a patent here that could revolutionize the entire breeding industry market. Give me expedited review!"

Chapter 86 The Simps of Number Eighteen (Part 2)

"You want me to open a expedited review channel for you?"

On the other end of the phone, Lao Cai, who was holding a thermos, almost choked on his tea when he heard Professor Sun's sudden request.

The so-called "red expedited review channel" bypasses the regular federal review process, forcibly jumps to the first line, and uses the central authority's central control to lock up the patent data.

As the deputy director of the patent office, Lao Cai's biggest headache is when people try to use his connections to get through this channel.

"Old Sun, you've been drinking today?"

Old Cai said helplessly, "There are thousands of patents queuing up every day in the entire Federation. You want me to give you a special channel to cut in line right away?"

"Even if you and your students come up with some amazing formula, I can just give you a regular expedited processing order privately."

"Isn't it a bit of an overreaction to go straight to the red channel?"

"Moreover, once I open it, I will have to write an explanation, go through the confidentiality committee, and explain to others why I cut in line."

"Don't tell me that one of your students made a small improvement, and you get so excited that you want to be their protector."

Upon hearing this, Lu Junfeng and He Ya instinctively looked at Su Mo.

Feeling their gazes, Su Mo blinked, looking completely innocent.

"Minor improvements? Making a mountain out of a molehill?"

Professor Sun snorted coldly and replied without any politeness, "Old Cai, if it's just a minor improvement, I'll hang up right now. I don't have time to joke with you!"

"Let me ask you, if there were a potion that could instantly increase Meowth's wind affinity to 45% without causing it to evolve prematurely, would you think it deserves to be in line?"
