Chapter 121: Priority Choice
In a temporary military tent on Tianming, Lieutenant General Jin Wei was frowning hard, and so were the other people in the tent.
Huang Mao confessed everything after the soldiers took him back. What he said about the space gem let Jin Wei know how tricky the situation was.
Once the news was out, some of the senior experts of the Universal Federation would definitely fight for the space gem.
If they were to start a battle on Tianming, this planet would instantly be reduced to dust.
“Tell me, how do you think we should handle this space gem?” asked Jin Wei.
The officers in the tent thought for a moment and offered their opinions.
“I suggest that we contact the Military Department immediately so that more experts can reinforce us.”
“That’s right. The senior experts won’t talk to us if they’re here.”
“Although the Military Department is one of the five biggest forces in the Universal Federation, we’re not good enough for those senior experts.”
“We can contact our superiors while we send soldiers to capture Xi Rongxuan. We’ll be greatly rewarded if we can obtain the space gem.”
“That’s not a bad idea!”
All the officers nodded their heads. They were the most powerful force on Tianming, and they were likely to get the space gem first.
As long as they got the space gem and submitted it, they would definitely receive generous rewards.
“It’s indeed not a bad idea. Ask the soldiers to hunt down Xi Rongxuan.” Jin Wei nodded and said, “Is the guy named Wang Hao here?”
“He’s already here,” replied a soldier. “Today, Wang Hao has been selling the antidote for the zombie virus. Many infected people have been cured.”
“Huh…” Jin Wei nodded and said, “Transfer three billion to buy antidotes. Let’s cure our brothers first.”
The Military Department had a military base on every planet. When Tianming was attacked by the zombie virus, many soldiers in the base were hit, too. They were only surviving with antibodies.
Thankfully, only a thousand soldiers contracted the virus.
“Well…” The soldier looked at Jin Wei and said carefully, “General, Wang Hao sells a dosage of the antidote for ten billion.”
“Ten billion?”
All the officers were stunned at first, before they exclaimed in shock. The price was simply too outrageous!
“He has crossed the line…” Jin Wei slapped the table and sniffed. “Even if he is the best genius of the Guild of Pharmacists, he cannot peg the drug at any price. Does he think that there’s no law in the Universal Federation?”
The soldier said in a low voice, “General, according to our investigation, Wang Hao is a level-three Medical Grandmaster. Also, he’s only seventeen. The leadership of the Guild of Pharmacists think highly of him, which is why they didn’t intervene when Wang Hao sold the expensive antidote.”
“A seventeen-year-old level-three Medical Grandmaster?” Everybody gasped. This guy was definitely the best genius in the history of the Guild of Pharmacists and would lead the Guild of Pharmacists in the future.
The Guild of Pharmacists would definitely protect such a genius as long as he did not betray the Universal Federation. As for the high price of the antidote, it was not worth mentioning at all.
Jin Wei was rather gloomy. With the Guild of Pharmacists at Wang Hao’s back, it was barely possible for him to ask Wang Hao to lower the price.
However, he would definitely be mocked by his colleagues if he were to pay such a high price for the drugs.
“General, we also found something else.” The soldier spoke up again. “Although Wang Hao is the best genius of the Guild of Pharmacists, he’s currently studying in the No. 11 school of Empyrean North University.”
“The No. 11 school?” Jin Wei remembered that Wang Hao was wearing the badge of Empyrean North University. But why was a genius of the Guild of Pharmacists in Empyrean North University?
The soldier replied, “Our investigation suggests that Wang Hao is not just a genius in pharmaceutics but also in martial arts. He has grasped a couple Natural techniques. But since he’s only a level-three Martial Master, he can only study in a branch of Empyrean North University for now.”
“A couple of Natural techniques?” The other officers were unconvinced. A seventeen-year-old couldn’t have grasped a couple Natural techniques and become a level-three Medical Grandmaster even if he had started training in his mother’s womb.
The soldier smiled bitterly and played Wang Hao’s footage for them.
The whole tent fell silent immediately.
Wang Hao’s gun, his sword, his gait… They were indeed all Natural techniques.
Jin Wei heaved a long sigh and said in shock, “I think I need to visit this Wang Hao in person.”
The officers nodded their heads, feeling that it was necessary. It would be best if they could make friends with such a genius.
If they could ask Wang Hao to give them a discount, they would be very proud of themselves.
…
In the safe area, a bunch of technicians were modifying the Dark Dragon and installing two level-four Laser Cannons and two level-four machine guns.
Wang Hao patted Chen Yao’s shoulder and said, “Chen Yao, I didn’t expect you to complete the mission so quickly!”
Chen Yao sighed. “Boss, in order to complete your mission, I sacrificed myself and signed a series of unequal treaties with Xiaoyu, promising that I’ll marry her as soon as possible.”
“You’ve done a great job!” Wang Hao comforted him. “When we’re stronger, other people will sacrifice themselves to please us, and you will get to choose them first.”
Chen Yao said tearfully, “Thank you, boss. I’ll definitely live up to your expectations. You must come to me when anyone has to sacrifice themselves…”
Qian Wanyang was quite jealous. When could he join the conversation of those two shameless scoundrels?
At this moment, Lieutenant General Jin Wei arrived with a group of soldiers.
“Boss, Lieutenant General is here.” Qian Wanyang pulled at Wang Hao and whispered, “I’m told that many soldiers on Tianming were hit by the zombie virus and will die without antibodies.”
“So, they’re here to buy a cure?” Chen Yao narrowed his eyes. “But it’s not a friendly gesture to visit us with so many soldiers.”
“Will you be friendly if you are to buy a bottle of antidote that costs ten billion?” snorted Wang Hao.
Qian Wanyang and Chen Yao turned around and looked at Wang Hao in amazement. So, their boss knew that the cure he was selling was expensive!
“Wang Hao, we’ve met again.”
Jin Wei nodded at Wang Hao but frowned. Every time he saw Wang Hao’s face, he felt that he had seen it somewhere before. He couldn’t have interacted with Wang Hao before, but why was Wang Hao’s face so familiar?
