Amiable

Zhang Xuezhou experienced the feeling of being famous for the first time.

Wherever he went, the people attending this academic conference would address him with great courtesy as "Professor Zhang," treating him with the same warmth and respect as if he were a second parent.

"He?"

"A longevity drug?"

"The damned can't die?"

The elderly flocked to Zhang Xuezhou, but the younger generation still had a relatively normal judgment about Zhang Xuezhou.

Zuo Quan and Zuo Luo looked at each other and whispered to each other, discussing the negative effects of the drug.

"Does this medicine extend lifespan by one year, two years, three years, or five years?"

"I'm a little afraid that this drug might develop the ability to extend lifespan by ten or twenty years!"

"If those old Sequence Holder don't die, things will get complicated!"

Zoro may look down on Gene Sequence Gene Sequence, but he must admit that the combat advantage they bring is significant.

Even someone as strong as Luo Zhong could perish, killed by a group of masters skilled in traditional martial arts. And once these people obtain the power of the Gene Sequence, they will become even more dangerous.

"These damn hybrid genetic beings!" Zoro cursed. "Their unique Gene Sequence have reduced too much of the genetic influence of the ingredients!"

"It is indeed very difficult for us to control," Zuo Quan nodded.

"What's most infuriating is their strong regionalism, which makes it difficult for seeds to spread throughout the country. Even after decades of development, it's still hard to Luo'an Province!"

"No need to rush. A product called online shopping has emerged that can break the local monopoly. As long as the price is low enough, planting will inevitably spread!"

Amidst the whispers, Zuo Luo stopped his discontented mouth.

He watched as Zhang Xuezhou, who had walked quite a distance off the stage, also shouted and joined the revelry.

"One or two years? Three or five years? Ten or twenty years?"

For Zhang Xuezhou, whenever he discovered that Zuo Luo and Zuo Quan were communicating, he would definitely prick up his ears to eavesdrop.

The cacophony of congratulations and greetings thundered in his ears, yet Zhang Xuezhou could also hear the subtle whispers between the two.

He had to admit that Zuo Luo and the others overestimated him. The effects of his current life-extending drug were likely only a few seconds to a minute or two, and he couldn't take too much because of drug resistance.

The Immortal Court's Life-Extending Golden Elixir could add twenty years to one's lifespan out of thin air; this was used as a trump card to control the mortal court.

If his longevity medicine had such an effect, Zhang Xuezhou would have to use it to the limit, regardless of whether the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon was on him or not.

In reality, the effects of his life-extending medicine were so weak that they were beyond repair.

Otherwise, Zhang Xuezhou wouldn't have repeatedly declined with politeness; rather, his medicine was truly ineffective to the point of being almost fake.

Zhang Xuezhou was prepared for the frenzy and was well aware that Ren Yisheng and others were pushing the aging committee members to attract criticism, but he didn't expect to overhear some unexpected things.

This involves Ron's identity, and at this time it also involves the seeds of Luo'an Province, even allowing him to determine the true situation of Huang Daoxian being trapped in Luo'an Province.

"Is it difficult to spread seeds throughout the entire country, and even after decades of development, it's still hard to Luo'an Province?"

"Couldn't Zuo Quan buy some seeds in Luo'an Province and plant them in Western Capital City?"

"Ron didn't farm either... Oh right, he probably wants to overthrow the committee and then use force to promote genetic engineering!"

"But why can Zodiac flowers only be grown in Luo'an Province a large scale?"

What exactly were his living conditions?

Through conversations with Zuo Quan and others, Zhang Xuezhou managed to come up with a somewhat feasible way to deal with Huang Daoxian.

Huang Daoxian hopes to promote genetically modified seeds in Luo'an Province, while they can take the opposite approach by pushing crops from other provinces to Luo'an Province, gradually cutting Luo'an Province's original genetically modified crops.

While it's unclear how effective this approach will be, generally speaking, going against the other party is never a bad idea.

Zhang Xuezhou, all smiles, kept greeting and responding to the crowd as he walked, until he took his honorary medal and certificate and sat down in his original seat. Only then did the loud congratulations around him subside.

But Zuo Quan and Zuo Luo didn't discuss the matter further, which left him feeling quite disappointed.

Normally, private discussions wouldn't take place in such settings, especially when it involves matters of great importance, but Zuo Quan had previously revealed information at the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum.

Perhaps due to their confidence in their own strength, or perhaps because their different strengths led to different defensive measures, these two failed to evade Zhang Xuezhou's perception of their realm, or perhaps their individual strengths were not as perfect as Zhang Xuezhou had imagined.

As they continued to interact, Zhang Xuezhou learned more and more about him.

His extreme wariness of Huang Daoxian gradually subsided, and he was no longer as afraid as before of being killed by a casual blow from the other party.

Although Zhang Xuezhou remained very wary, he was at least able to return to normalcy. He could even try to interact with Zuo Quan and Zuo Luo instead of using Zuo Teng as a shield.

"Our sixth honorary professorship..."

Zhang Xuezhou's appointment as an honorary professor has sparked much speculation, but he is merely one of the participants in the awarding ceremony.

When the applause rang out again, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but clap along enthusiastically.

Anyone who is allowed to enter has undergone repeated screening and guarantees, and the identities of these researchers are highly confidential. People can be relaxed in this hall, but once they leave the High-Tech Agricultural Products Research Center, they will return to normal and only communicate within their own small circles.

"He's a top expert in compressed explosives!"

In more modern societies, explosives seem like a common product; some people even use them to blast fish, making their use extremely common.

However, advanced explosives are still being developed and require continuous advancement.

The products of the sixth honorary professor, Huang He, were not put into the market for verification, but were only used on a small scale. The products included bullets, rockets, and miniature explosive packs, and were also guaranteed by influential figures involved in military affairs.

The person who did this research is amazing!

Zhang Xuezhou thought about the firearms he was using and felt that future firearms would be more powerful, the range and power of rocket launchers would also expand, and explosive charges would most likely become a tool used by some of the Sequence Holder.

Zhang Xuezhou will clearly be one of the beneficiaries.

He couldn't help but crane his neck to listen to Huang He's speech.

"You actually like explosives?"

It's easy to tell whether someone is acting proactively or passively. Zhang Xuezhou had been sitting upright and clapping enthusiastically, but now he was craning his neck to look around, clearly very fond of the product Huang He was researching.

This surprised Zuo Luo, who only occasionally paid attention to Zhang Xuezhou, and he felt that dealing with someone like Zhang Xuezhou was too difficult.

A fondness for explosives is clearly not a good hobby, but if he needs to guide the direction of the younger generation, he can't avoid dealing with them.

"Could you get me a research fellowship for explosives?" Zuo Luo asked Zuo Quan in a low voice.

"It's easy to manipulate at the lecturer level, it takes a little time for associate professors, but it's much harder to do anything beyond that," Zuo Quan a low voice.

"Get me an associate professorship in explosives sometime!"

Zuo Luo whispered a word of advice, then ignored Zuo Quan.

His gaze swept in all directions, and when Zhang Xuezhou turned his head unintentionally, their eyes met. Zuo Luo saw Zhang Xuezhou nod and smile slightly, his attitude much more amiable than before.
