An Unexpected Surprise!

As long as those alien life samples are still there, the losses from this spaceship crash are negligible!

"No, we only retrieved three samples."

The Black woman answered with a serious expression.

"One of the aircraft samples escaped the sealed chamber and its whereabouts are currently unknown."

Hearing that three samples were still intact, Dr. Drake finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although one had escaped, the value of the remaining three alien biological samples was immeasurable. With them, his Life Foundation would surely be able to research new biotechnology achievements and create astonishing wealth!

That evening, Chen Mo arrived in San Francisco by plane.

After leaving the airport, Chen Mo had J.A.R.V.I.S. check Dr. Drake's location. Upon learning that he was at the Life Foundation headquarters, Chen Mo found a secluded corner nearby, equipped himself with his Iron Man suit, attached his cloaking device, and took to the air.

A few minutes later, Chen Mo arrived at the Life Foundation headquarters located on the coast of the Golden Gate Strait and slowly landed on the helicopter platform atop the huge, sprawling building built on the mountainside.

After putting away his Iron Man suit and stealth device, Chen Mo walked towards a passage next to the platform.

The passageway door was tightly closed, and on one side of the wall was a fingerprint scanner, which required pressing the entire palm of the hand on it for successful recognition before entry was permitted.

However, as Chen Mo approached, the recognition device started working automatically, and the tightly closed door opened automatically the next moment. Chen Mo walked straight in without stopping.

It was already past midnight, and most of the building's staff had already gone home, leaving only a few security guards patrolling the building.

However, given Chen Mo's perception, it was naturally easy for him to evade them. The surveillance devices throughout the building were completely unaffected by J.A.R.V.I.S.'s control, and Chen Mo swaggered towards Dr. Drake's residence.

The Life Foundation headquarters building is nestled on the mountainside of a large mountain. It is a very large building, and Dr. Drake has a large private space on the top floor where he usually lives.

Following the map J.A.R.V.I.S. had provided, Chen Mo quickly arrived at Dr. Drake's residence.

The tightly closed electronic door opened automatically again after Chen Mo walked over. The Life Foundation's most heavily guarded entrance, apart from the helicopter platform, is the only road leading to the outside world, where there are dedicated guard posts and security personnel. As for the interior of the building, it is a unified electronic access control system. Dr. Drake trusts his security personnel very much, so he did not upgrade his residence separately, but only restricted access.

Apart from the fact that the confidential information in the R&D department was physically isolated and not connected to the network, the security access control system in the entire building shared a local area network, which J.A.R.V.I.S. could easily intrude into and control, gaining the highest level of access.

Chen Mo walked in through the open door. Not long after, Dr. Drake, who had been asleep, came out with Chen Mo, though his expression was a little blank.

At this moment, Dr. Drake had been controlled by Chen Mo using Mind Stone control. Under the guidance of Dr. Drake, the master of the Life Foundation, the two went directly into the core research and development data server room of the research and development department.

This research and development server is a dedicated server used for research, experimentation, and storage of scientific research data. It is independent of the Life Foundation's security, access control, and office systems, and is used only within the research and development department. It is not connected to the company's local area network or external network, so even J.A.R.V.I.S. cannot directly hack into it through the network to obtain the data.

Now that Dr. Drake is available, things are much simpler. J.A.R.V.I.S. doesn't even need to spend time hacking in. Dr. Drake, controlled by Chen Mo, directly enters his highest-level password, and all of the Life Foundation's technical data is completely exposed to Chen Mo!

J.A.R.V.I.S. inserted a USB flash drive-sized portable data transfer module into the data interface of the R&D server. Through the data transfer module, Jarvis directly accessed the R&D server and filtered and copied a large amount of information stored inside.

The movie mentions that the Life Foundation is actually a world-leading pharmaceutical company that develops drugs through biotechnology and gene therapy. Dr. Drake had already developed a new gene therapy when he was nineteen years old, which could double the life expectancy of pancreatic cancer patients.

After amassing an astonishing fortune through pharmaceuticals, Dr. Drake set his sights on space, developing and building spaceships to explore the resources of the universe.

Chen Mo originally thought that the Life Foundation's biotechnology was limited to extending the life expectancy of cancer patients by several times, but after seeing the data in the research server, Chen Mo realized that he had underestimated the company.

They had so much money that they started researching and building spaceships, and the crash of one of their ships had no effect on them at all; they immediately began building a second one.

It's important to understand that, let alone spacecraft capable of space exploration, the development cost of the United States space shuttle, which can only reach near-Earth orbit, is over one hundred billion US dollars, and the cost of each space shuttle exceeds ten billion US dollars. The development and construction costs of this more advanced space shuttle will only be higher.

This demonstrates the terrifying power of the Life Foundation, and it's not something that can be earned simply by selling a drug that can extend the survival time of pancreatic cancer patients several times over.

In fact, after years of research and development, although the Life Foundation has not completely conquered cancer or found a cure, it has developed drugs that can suppress cancer cells in the long term.

This drug cannot kill cancer cells, but it can inhibit the proliferation and spread of cancer cells, prevent the disease from worsening and spreading. As long as the medication is taken continuously, the disease can be stably controlled, allowing patients to live with the disease and, theoretically, reach the lifespan of a normal person.

While it may not seem to cure cancer, its effectiveness is almost identical, and its value is self-evident. Moreover, due to the need for long-term continuous use, the demand for this drug is enormous, resulting in unimaginable wealth.

This was an unexpected surprise for Chen Mo. This drug was not just for a specific type of cancer, but was developed based on the characteristics of cancer cells, and could have the same effect on all cancers.

With this drug, although cancer is incurable, it will no longer be a terminal illness that everyone fears!
