Temporary Cooperation
Zhang Xuezhou once won a belt from Montes Steel in his early years. The belt could promote the absorption of blood agents and had a very obvious effect on promoting the sequence.
The Scarlet Alliance State also produced beast-themed products, and after nearly a year of research imitating the beast belt, they obtained a few useless beast feathers.
There is a certain gap between the two countries in the field of production, and this gap is not due to differences in the intelligence of researchers, but rather stems more from Badun.
Regardless of the productivity and systems of social development, different directions of technological development will lead to different advantages in each world.
Badun clearly possesses some unique advantages as well.
"I want your pharmaceutical technology!"
Instead of offering his own contribution, Badun first made his own demands.
"It seems you're interested in that drug that stimulates entry into the Seventh Sequence," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"Not bad," Badun nodded. "I selected four people, and two of them entered the Seventh Sequence after taking the drug. The drug's effect on sequences is very significant, and I hope to obtain the technology to replicate it!"
"I personally don't mind transferring this technology," Zhang Xuezhou said, spreading his hands. "If you're willing to make an exchange, I can even transfer the technology to you right now!"
"You agreed so readily?" Badun asked suspiciously. "Are you sure our technology isn't advanced enough to copy it?"
"I simply hope that we can cooperate in good faith and seek common development. You should know how open our Alliance States are to the outside world. If it were a few years ago, you wouldn't be able to come and go as you please in Western Capital City. Now, it's as simple as visiting someone's home for you. Only through continuous openness and cooperation can we work together to move forward!"
Zhang Xuezhou looked completely sincere, almost as if he were pointing at himself and saying, "I hope for world peace."
His sincerity made Badun question his life choices, feeling that Zhang Xuezhou and the others were being far too open, almost as if they were discussing a private collaboration.
Badun even began to reflect on whether he had been too selfish.
Based on past education and numerous case studies, leaders must maintain absolute power to securely and worry-free control of vast resources.
This has always been Badun's belief: only when he is powerful will he allow others to be powerful.
Badun would rather abandon someone than accept a lack of absolute loyalty.
Only when he possesses overwhelming control will he allow a large number of people to flood into the high-sequence level.
For example, he once entered the Eighth Sequence, but Badun found that this sequence level could not completely overwhelm those in the Seventh Sequence, which made him urge those in the Seventh Sequence to maintain a cautious attitude.
The Scarlet Alliance State is almost the opposite. Zhang Xuezhou, one of the leaders, suffers from many health problems and has never reached the Seventh Sequence. He can only rely on some of his original advantages to barely maintain his combat power.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if Zhang Xuezhou were awake, there would be many people who could pose a fatal threat to Zhang Xuezhou, including those who could use firearms.
But Zhang Xuezhou seemed completely unconcerned about this threat, and even continued to push the Scarlet Alliance State to improve themselves.
This situation is almost the opposite of Badun's understanding of power, and he finds it somewhat difficult to understand people like Zhang Xuezhou.
Zhang Xuezhou's proactive expression of sincerity made it difficult for Badun to refuse, and he eventually agreed.
"I've already transcribed the sequence drug I developed into a paper. You should also prepare more. Once you've finished transcribing your technical data, we'll proceed directly with the drug production. You can just stand by and watch. We can film if necessary, and discuss any problems on the spot," Zhang Xuezhou said. "We'll teach you step by step until you learn it. If you lack any relevant drug production equipment, we'll send you a set!"
"That'll work!"
Badun nodded, indicating that Zhang Xuezhou was right to do so; technology transfer should be this thorough.
With Zhang Xuezhou's words, Badun was actually quite willing to swap partners.
Even if he can't get help from the Sequence Holder of the Scarlet Alliance State this time, he is confident that he can create another group of Seventh Sequence and then attack the cave where the Seven Spiders are located to obtain unique benefits.
Badun had some thoughts on his mind, while Zhang Xuezhou remained calm and composed.
The key to boosting the Seventh Sequence lies not in the complexity of the process, but in the scarcity of the herb, romaine.
Without the Scripture of the Snake Cave, Zhang Xuezhou would not have been able to concoct the medicine.
He doesn't mind the technology leaking out at all; there's no need for technology transfer discussions or negotiations—the relevant agreements can be reached privately directly.
But deep down, Zhang Xuezhou hoped that the countries could develop together and help each other.
His words to Badun were not a threat; proactive development is always the best approach, rather than resorting to last-minute scrambling.
Based on the timeline of the Mirror Remains, this world was discovered by explorers from outer space at least five hundred years ago. The arrival of this alien civilization brought about change and inevitably caused shock.
Those with mild temperaments like Badun are one thing, and even tyrannical rulers like Nagoth have their value, but non-human monks only bring disaster.
The vast territory prevented this disaster from manifesting immediately, but change was something that would have to be faced sooner or later, and this disaster would not end simply by killing a few fireball creatures.
Zhang Xuezhou also expressed his hope that countries would establish a defense mechanism and jointly promote technological development, so that they could quickly launch an investigation once relevant clues were discovered.
If a civilization can be integrated into it, it should be accepted; if it poses a significant threat or contradicts the development of the civilization, it should be eradicated.
Only by advancing their civilization's technology to a certain level can they ensure that their civilization will not be destroyed by outsiders.
"It's a pleasure working with you. Let's keep in touch!"
Zhang Xuezhou politely shook hands with Badun, then gestured that he would not disturb him, before whispering to Wang Haoran, who had been waiting for several days.
Wang Haoran had practiced the Realm Technique a long time ago, and the time when he promoted the Mental Strengthening Chapter was when he and Ren Yisheng were building their team.
People of Wang Li's grandson's generation are already over thirty years old, while Wang Haoran is already in his seventies, only appearing youthful thanks to various gene drugs and gene sequencing.
As a second-generation resident of Western Capital City, Wang Haoran Wang Haoran a step behind his father, Wang Jiangtao, but the development of science and technology in the era pulled him up.
The combination of gene-based drugs, sequence locks, snake pit elixirs, and Realm Technique related to the mental series, along with many other factors, allowed Wang Haoran to surpass his father's generation in combat power.
Now, Wang Haoran has surpassed Wang Jiangtao's level, a period of groundbreaking significance for the Wang Household.
Wang Haoran lacked confidence in entering the Seventh Sequence, and even though he already possessed relevant extracts from ferocious beasts, he hesitated to try it.
"Am I really capable? Should I hone my skills for a while longer?"
Hearing Zhang Xuezhou and Luo Burang talking on the phone and then immediately arranging the experiment, Wang Haoran felt a little uneasy, feeling that he hadn't accumulated enough knowledge.
"This sequence isn't cumulative; as long as the body meets the basic requirements, it will inevitably be achieved!"
The Seventh Sequence is not a state of State of Mind, nor does it involve control or domain, and it has nothing to do with fighting; it is simply about repairing the body's deficiencies.
As long as a certain number of gene sites in the body are activated to meet the basic requirements and can promote the formation of sequence locks, the body can be stimulated by extracts from ferocious beasts, thereby guiding the body's evolution.
If, in the future, Fifth Sequence individual, or even Fourth Sequence individual, were to emerge with a resistance layer, Zhang Xuezhou felt he wouldn't be surprised at all.
The standards required for evolution are not high, Wang Haoran possesses the basic qualities to enter the Seventh Sequence.
Zhang Xuezhou, however, had some reservations. He felt that he needed to minimize his efforts this time and try to find the pattern of the human body's reaction equation as soon as possible.
This was his first time creating his own cultivation method, and even if it was an imitative innovation, it was still extremely important to him.
If he achieves something, he can be said to have progressed from imitating his predecessors to relying on others, and finally establishing his own doctrine.
Only by reaching this level will he possess the confidence of a grandmaster who is no less capable than others.
