But it’s only been a short time, not even 30 hours!

"I've already said it, it's just a test subject." Ai Yue shook his head and didn't directly respond to the question, "Where are the other patients?"

A single case is not enough to prove the reliability of a drug. Even if it is just to collect data, it must be

Spasi then remembered that the box in the other person's hand still contained a lot of light blue potions, which dispelled his last bit of doubt. However, he still subconsciously said, "Potions that have not been tested on animals cannot be..."

Before he could finish his words, he slapped himself and walked to the front: "Follow me."

The ground building of the Fifth Science Department is not so much a hospital for treating patients with Honkai disease as it is a place for providing hospice care for patients and collecting experimental data. From the time this hospital was founded to now, only one patient has been cured in the entire hospital, and that is Su.

Many scholars in the Fifth Science Department would laugh at themselves, saying that this place is actually a cemetery, and that these so-called doctors watched patients being sent here, obtained data related to Honkai disease from the patients, but were completely unable to cure them. After the patients died, they had to extract Honkai disease antibodies from their bodies. They were simply a group of zombies.

For these patients, even if the medicine in Ai Yue's hand can only give them a last glimmer of life and prolong their dying lives for a few days or even a few hours, it has far exceeded all the efforts made by the Fifth Scientific Department. In this case, why should he still abide by that outdated dogma?

Special things, of course, require special methods.

Ai Yue still had 19 doses of medicine in his hand, so Spasi also selected 19 patients with the most serious conditions. Accompanied by more and more other doctors who rushed over after hearing the news, all 19 patients returned to normal after receiving the medicine.

"Everything has been arranged. Each patient will undergo a complete physical examination and a one-week observation period." Inside the office, Su knocked on the door, then walked in and looked at his teacher and Ai Yue. "But from what I can see so far, the effect of the serum provided by Dr. Ai Yue is basically the same as the serum used on me."

"There is still a difference." Ai Yue sat on the sofa and said without looking up, "My potion takes effect faster."

"So, how did you do it?" Su now felt a sense of fear towards Ai Yue. "To be honest, I really can't understand it."

Most people feel fear when faced with things they cannot understand, and this is the case with Su now.

Before this, most of Su's knowledge of Ai Yue came from online rumors and descriptions from his friends. These contents were more or less distorted, so it was difficult for Su to intuitively realize how outrageous Ai Yue's abilities were.

But today he experienced it all firsthand.

Can one person really complete a difficult problem that the entire Fifth Science Department has spent nearly ten years trying to solve in just one day?

Su couldn't imagine how Ai Yue would behave in his laboratory, but he knew very well that even if he just designed the formula for the Honkai disease inhibitor, it would take much more time than this.

This doesn’t even include the subsequent steps of repeated experimentation and refinement.

Su is already a recognized genius in the Fifth Science Department. Spasi is even willing to use a bottle of Honkai disease serum made from the remains of a thousand patients for him. But compared with Ai Yue, what is he?

At this moment, in his eyes, Ai Yue's body had twisted and expanded, changing into some kind of incomprehensible existence. Only an existence that surpassed the limits of human imagination could be capable of doing such a thing.

There was nothing wrong with Mebius's evaluation; Ai Yue was indeed a miracle worker.

Su couldn't help but look at his teacher.

Spasi is a man who seems gentle and kind, but is actually very stubborn in his heart. He is extremely confident in his abilities, and is also proud of his career and keeps working hard for it. Even though he is now disabled and old, he still works as hard as a young man, and sometimes even can endure longer than Su.

Can such a person accept that his long-term efforts are so easily surpassed by others?

However, to his surprise, Spacey was laughing.

He didn't look at Ai Yue or Su, but looked out the window with a relieved smile.

It was as if what Ai Yue did did not cause him any harm, but instead freed him from some shackles that he had been unable to break free of for a long time.

After a moment, Spasi gathered his scattered thoughts. He stood up and bowed deeply to Ai Yue with a solemn expression: "Dr. Ai Yue, thank you."

"Hey, don't be like this." Ai Yue rolled and crawled up from the sofa, avoiding the direction of the other party's bow. "You are so old, I can't bear it."

"No, you can bear it." Spasi did not stand up, but continued to bow. "Thank you for saving us from the quagmire of despair and numbness."

"Those things are all settled now." Ai Yue waved his hand, "Now can we talk about the conditions we agreed on before?"

"You win," Spacey said, finally standing up straight again. "Whatever terms you propose, I'm willing to accept them."

Ai Yue showed a playful smile on his face: "Even if I ask to disband the Fifth Science Department?"

Chapter 12 Sounding the Horn of Counterattack

"Teacher, do you really agree?"

Even after Ai Yue left, Su still didn't react.

Ai Yue's condition of "disbanding the Fifth Science Department" was outrageous enough, but what was even more outrageous was that Spasi agreed without much hesitation.

This made Su a little confused - he had just joined the Fifth Science Department not long ago, why was his department going to be disbanded all of a sudden?

"Why not?" Spasi asked in return. "Su, eighty percent of the projects in the Fifth Science Department are related to the Honkai Serum. Now that artificially synthesized Honkai Serum has been developed, are these projects still necessary?"

"If eighty percent of the Fifth Science Department's projects ceased to exist, then this department could naturally be disbanded, right?"

"But, as the world's top medical research institution, the Fifth Science Department isn't just focused on researching Honkai Serum!" Su asked, "There are so many diseases in the world that need to be conquered. Shouldn't we be working on solving them?"

"Su, you have to understand that the Fifth Science Department is a subsidiary organization of the Fire Moth." Spasi shook his head. "From the moment the Fire Moth was founded, it had only one goal: to completely eliminate the threat of Honkai to humanity."

"While what you said is certainly important, it's nothing compared to the collapse." Spasi lowered his head. On his desk were the documents left by Ai Yue before he left. "Besides, the disbanding of the Fifth Science Department isn't a bad thing."

As he said that, he handed the document to Su and motioned for him to open it and take a look.

"This..." Su glanced at it briefly, then looked at Spasi, "So, it's not disbanding, but breaking up into smaller pieces?"

"Break it down into pieces. I like that idea." Spacey smiled. "So, what do you think now?"

"I have to admit, this plan is very good." Su opened his mouth and finally sighed, "I can't think of any problems at the moment."

Ai Yue's plan was simple. The birth of the artificially synthesized Honkai disease serum meant that the production of this drug was no longer constrained by the number of patient remains, thus greatly improving the production efficiency. Combined with the mass production of Honkai energy adsorption devices, ordinary patients could already be treated without having to send them all to the Fifth Science Department to die.

Therefore, Ai Yue plans to establish hospitals specializing in the treatment of Honkai disease in major cities in order to launch a "counterattack" against Honkai disease.

To establish a hospital, one naturally needs experienced and knowledgeable doctors. But where in the world can one find doctors with experience in treating Honkai disease?

The answer is naturally the Fifth Science Department.

Therefore, in Ai Yue's plan, in addition to retaining a small number of scientific research talents and continuing to conduct research on projects such as the cost optimization of Honkai disease serum, all other personnel will need to go to hospitals in various places to take up positions, so there is talk of disbanding the Fifth Science Department.

Of course, this plan is not to be implemented starting today, so when Ai Yue handed the plan to Spasi, he was also conveying the message "you can do it yourself".

He even left behind the detailed information on the artificial synthesis of Honkai energy serum, obviously not intending to continue to take care of this matter.

From then on, whether Spasi decided to continue to retain the Fifth Science Department, or to carry out his plan, or to have other ideas, Ai Yue would no longer interfere.

It was as if he came here simply to help them get through this most difficult hurdle.

"Su, I've made my decision," Spasi suddenly said. "The Fifth Science Department will retain a laboratory to continue researching and optimizing the Honkai Disease serum, and you will be in charge of this laboratory."

"Teacher?" Su was stunned. He never expected that he would be responsible for such an important matter after just joining the Fifth Science Department. "What about you? Are you planning to retire?"

"Retire? Of course not." Spasi smiled and subconsciously clenched his right hand. "Honkai took away everything from me, so I will fight it until the last moment."

"I will be on the front lines of the hospital and work until I die."

Spasi's wife and daughter both died of Honkai disease. Spasi was at the scene when they fell ill. Because he was unwilling to let go of his wife and daughter's hands until they died, his left hand also became infected, and he eventually had to rely on amputation surgery to save his life.

Although Spasi now uses a bionic prosthesis, he hardly uses this arm due to some inner resistance.

However, today, he tried hard to control his prosthesis, opened a long-dusty drawer, and took out a flat wine jug with a curved shape.

"Come drink with me, Sue." Spasi raised the wine jug and smiled happily. "Maybe there won't be another chance in the future."

"Teacher..." Su looked at Spasi, who seemed to have aged a lot. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said, "There is something I want to tell you."

"I met Dr. Mebius the other day."

Ai Yue naturally had no idea what kind of conversation took place between the master and the disciple after he left. Now he had returned to his room and just wanted to have a good sleep.

In order to complete the research project of artificially synthesizing serum as quickly as possible, Ai Yue has not slept for nearly thirty hours. After all, technology in the medical field has always been his weak point. If it were not for Prometheus getting all the basic knowledge related to Honkai disease from Spasi's computer, he might not be able to complete this project today.

Of course, artificially synthesizing Honkai disease serum is not actually a very difficult technology. After all, fifty thousand years in the future, a certain blond devil man completed this project with the knowledge of his predecessors and his own efforts.

However, compared with the version in Ai Yue's hand, even the "HSN-b64 Serum" is slightly inferior.

After all, the version in Ai Yue's hands only needs a little optimization before it can be put into mass production directly. It is completely different from those things that cannot be manufactured without specific materials.

As he thought about it, Ai Yue couldn't help but yawn.

Although this level of fatigue is nothing to him now, as a sleep lover, Ai Yue really cannot allow himself to go without sleep for such a long time.

But before going to bed, he still made a phone call.

"Dr. Ai Yue?"

Ying's slightly puzzled voice rang out from the other end of the line: "Why are you calling me at this time? Do you have a mission?"

"No, it's just that the problem on my side has been basically solved." Ai Yue said straight to the point, "When are we going to pick up your sister?"

Chapter 13: Such a strong gravity

For Ai Yue, Ying's request was a very important matter.

On the one hand, Ying's willingness to entrust her most important family member to Ai Yue not only shows that she recognizes Ai Yue's ability, but also shows that she is willing to trust Ai Yue, so she exposes her most critical weakness in front of Ai Yue.

On the other hand, the bell itself is also very special.

In the original plot, she is the host of the twelfth Herrscher, the "Hersher of Corrosion", and looks no different from an ordinary person. However, after Ling's death, the ultimate virus called "Hersher of Corrosion" will awaken, becoming the last straw that completely crushes human civilization.

If possible, Ai Yue naturally hopes to avoid such an ending. Even if it is impossible to prevent the appearance of the Twelfth Herrscher by protecting Ling, at least it can change the tragedy that the sisters once experienced.

Therefore, he chose the safest option at the moment.

The next morning, Ai Yue was woken up by the doorbell. Rubbing his eyes, he went downstairs and saw the projection of Prometheus floating out, also rubbing his eyes. "That's Miss Ying outside the door. Strange, why would she come to see you so early?"

"Maybe you're a little impatient." Ai Yue smiled and looked at her strangely. "You don't feel tired or sleepy, do you? Why are you rubbing your eyes?"

"This is how I want to learn to become human." Prometheus blinked, and a yellow bean-like expression with rolled eyes appeared on his head. "Because humans do this, so I have to do it too."

"So, you didn't sleep well last night, right?" Ai Yue nodded thoughtfully. "Rose, I told you not to play games too late, didn't I?"

Prometheus instantly put away the expression on his face, then turned around and floated into the laboratory as if nothing had happened: "I have to get busy with work. Goodbye, Dr. Ai Yue."

This guy, I'll replace the fiber optic cable with a telephone line later.

After complaining in his heart about his internet-addicted girl, Ai Yue quickly opened the door. The fox-eared girl, standing upright outside the door, saw Ai Yue's tired face and immediately reacted: "Sorry, Dr. Ai Yue, I'll come back at noon."

Her mind was full of her sister's affairs last night, but she ignored the fact that Ai Yue must be very busy as well, and ended up disturbing his rest.

"No need, come in and sit down." Ai Yue, who had slept for almost fifteen hours yesterday, waved his hand and invited Ying in. "I can pack up and leave soon. Rose, you entertain Ying."

"Well, excuse me for disturbing you." Ying hesitated for a moment, but finally walked in. Then she looked at Prometheus who had floated out again, "Well, there's no need for hospitality."

"What a shame! I was thinking of trying to say 'coffee or tea'." Prometheus shrugged and then continued, "Ms. Sakura, you came here for your sister, right?"

Ying was not surprised that Prometheus knew about this. Even someone like her who was not good at using the Internet knew very well how powerful Prometheus was. As Ai Yue's only and most capable assistant, she would probably play an indispensable role in this matter.

"Yes." Sakura nodded, a gentle smile on her face, "My sister, Ling, she is a very cute child."

As she spoke, Sakura took out the photo that she had kept close to her body and handed it to Prometheus, as if she wanted the artificial intelligence to also understand how cute Ling was.

"I'm sorry, Miss Sakura, my current image is just a projection." Prometheus showed a yellow bean-like expression on his head, wiping sweat. "If you want to show me something, you need to put the photo in this position."

As she spoke, she pointed to the soles of her feet. Sakura lowered her head and discovered that there was a movable device on the ground that looked like a sweeping robot. It was the projector on top of the device that was projecting the image of Prometheus.

"Sorry, I forgot." Ying nodded, then squatted down and placed the photo in front of the camera. "Can you see it like this?"

"Of course, Miss Sakura." Prometheus nodded. "Judging from a human perspective, this is indeed a lovely child."

Sakura also smiled, as if she really enjoyed hearing others praise her sister.

"Well, Miss Sakura, I have a question for you." Prometheus waited for Sakura to stand up before continuing, "What does 'family' mean to you?"

"Well...if I'm going to use bells to explain it," Sakura thought for a moment before saying, "My family is everything to me."

"All of them?" Prometheus repeated. "It seems that Miss Ling is really important to Miss Sakura."

"Lin and I escaped from our hometown. Our father and mother... stayed there." Perhaps because she was in front of the artificial intelligence, Sakura became a little more talkative. "Of my family, only Ling is left. The reason I joined the Fire Moth and the Poison Chrysalis was because I wanted Ling to live a good life. This is my responsibility as a sister."

"If there's no younger sister, then the older sister naturally ceases to exist, right?"

Prometheus's expression didn't change at all, but a thoughtful expression appeared on his head: "Miss Ying, your words are a little difficult to understand."

"I'm sorry, I'm really not good with words." Ying blushed slightly, "Please forget about this, it's not something important."

At this moment, Ai Yue finally came down from upstairs: "I've done it, let's go."

"Dr. Ai Yue, your 'cleaning' time has been reduced by another twenty seconds." A skeptical look appeared above Prometheus's head. "Are you really taking good care of yourself?"

"Men go out so quickly, not to mention that someone is waiting for me today." Ai Yue waved his hand, not caring about these trivial matters, "Let's go, Ying, Hua will be here soon."

"Okay, Dr. Ai Yue." Ying nodded, then looked at Prometheus again. Although she knew she was just a projection, Ying still looked into his eyes out of habit. "Then we'll take our leave."

"No need to say goodbye, Miss Ying." Prometheus's projection disappeared from the spot, but the voice came from Ai Yue again, "I will go with you."

Ying was slightly stunned, but didn't say anything else.

But Ai Yue took out his cell phone.
