The matter of spice had taken them too far afield. In short, it was precisely because Ghost Academy controlled the production of Glitterstim that it had the conditions to be established, using this spice to stimulate the awakening of the Force in its trainees.
Gabriel Tosh's previous experiment had confirmed that Glitterstim was indeed effective on ghosts. It could also briefly trigger a Force awakening in people with a certain amount of Chlamydiae, but not enough to qualify as Force-sensitive.
However, Glitterstim was still far less effective than Jizz. For now, it was merely making do, while Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group continued further experiments into Glitterstim's effects on the Force.
Meanwhile, Sherry Birkin, Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group's chief director, often received inexplicable data and knowledge from Governor Tang Xiao. After organizing experts to study and verify it, they concluded that it represented an entirely different path from existing technology—and that it genuinely had something to do with medicine.
She did not know that what Tang Xiao had given her was a portion of the Sith Alchemy he had obtained from Karnes Muur.
Once Sherry Birkin understood Tang Xiao's intentions, she immediately established a dedicated department to study this type of technology, making Sith Alchemy a standing research program.
Ghost Academy did not have many people at present, and it recruited trainees in secret. After using the Population Census to identify people with Chlamydiae density between 1,000 and 4,000, it would conduct social background checks. Most of those selected lived miserable lives, had no family or friends, were homeless, and might even have antisocial tendencies.
The Fourth Civilization was no paradise. Where there were classes, there was oppression and injustice. Moreover, during its early development, Mega-corporations such as Fourth Group had received numerous preferential policies. Naturally, their development was accompanied by more than
