Chapter 578 -354: Lin Changshou: How Could It Be…
Baili Xueyuan rolled her wrists, which seemed to be a little sore.
She turned her head to look at Lin Qi, the exasperation in her eyes growing ever deeper.
“Minister Baili? You actually came in person!”
Xu Zhengming, standing not far away, suddenly spoke up. He clearly recognized Baili Xueyuan.
Baili Xueyuan glanced at Xu Zhengming before turning her gaze back to Lin Qi. “You’ve caused such a huge commotion that even Elder Lin Changshou was alerted, so of course I had to make a trip myself. After all, according to your families, if this succeeds, you might just secure ninety percent of the weight in the Pharmacy Domain at this conference.”
Baili Xueyuan had never expected Lin Qi to cause such a huge stir so soon after arriving in World City.
He hadn’t revealed a single research finding, yet he had somehow convinced the four major families of Nanyun Potion to voluntarily report this up their chain of command and mobilize their respective resources.
One had to understand that Nanyun Potion was an absolutely unique company to the Eastern Alliance.
It was only the size of a top-tier corporation, but the influence wielded by the researchers working within this “mere” company was unimaginably vast.
The four great families were less families with a legacy in Pharmacy and more families with a legacy in Extraordinary Professions—and the most elite ones at that.
Nearly every S-Class researcher who retired from Nanyun Potion would go on to become a high-level combatant for the Alliance.
Between the four families, the number of Tier Four Extraordinary Professionals was over forty!
And that wasn’t even mentioning the 150-year-old living fossil.
Baili Xueyuan was almost certain that the Lin Family’s old scumbag had definitely become a Tier Five Extraordinary!
With that kind of influence, Lin Qi’s actions were brought before the highest decision-making body of the Eastern Alliance in minutes. The heads of several of the Eastern Alliance’s Intercontinental Giant Corporations even convened for a rapid meeting.
The final decision was also clear: Baili Xueyuan would personally lead a team to the S-Class Pharmaceutical Society and deploy security for the project’s duration.
If the research ultimately failed, the cost of the mobilized personnel and resources would be borne solely by Nanyun Potion.
If it succeeded, the Alliance would undoubtedly take the initiative to invest even more resources!
It was common knowledge around the world that companies within the Eastern Alliance supported one another; otherwise, the number of Intercontinental Giant Corporations originating from the Eastern Alliance wouldn’t exceed that of the rest of the Asian Administrative Region combined.
Baili Xueyuan looked at Lin Qi and said, “At least six Tier Four Extraordinaries are on their way. They’re a bit slower, but now that I’m here, this place is secure.”
“If you’re pressed for time, you can begin now.”
Baili Xueyuan made the announcement without any further ado. Light and shadow swirled around her, and in the next instant, she vanished.
Seeing the method Baili Xueyuan used to depart, Lin Qi was no longer as ignorant as he once was.
‘Is that another space-manipulation technique?’ he thought. ‘Why does a trump card like that feel so… common?’
Having gained the power of Spatial Pulling, Lin Qi had become much more sensitive to spatial fluctuations and was therefore able to see the true nature of Baili Xueyuan’s movement Ability.
But Lin Qi was in no mood to dwell on such things. The most important matter at hand was completing his research on “Phase Theory,” finalizing the paper, and building the measurement device.
He turned his head, met Liu Xuan’s gaze, and said, “There’s no time to waste. Let’s begin. You have to go back in two days, which means we only have about 48 hours.”
Only 48 hours to complete such a project—the timeline was incredibly tight.
The faint blue glow in Liu Xuan’s left eye indicated her emotions were perfectly stable, which in turn showed just how confident she was.
Multiple lines of thought were already forming in her mind.
“The experiment requires a large number of samples with inconsistent ‘Phase States.’ Beyond that, I might need to find a material that can contain the phenomenon described in your theory.”
“We can use a single-beam bombardment method for a directed impact, allowing the ‘puzzle pieces’ to combine via collision. After all, according to your theory, a vast number of universal particles exist in the world.”
Liu Xuan absorbed the theory Lin Qi described with incredible speed; she had almost completely grasped the existence of Spiritual Particles.
As Liu Xuan laid out her ideas, Lin Qi’s own thoughts immediately began to follow her train of logic.
“That’s right. Universal Spiritual Particles can combine with Spiritual Particles of almost any ‘Phase State,’ extending a vast number of new ‘bonds.’ This is the core of Phase State changes, and it’s also the reason researchers might see slight variations in a material’s properties each time they process it.”
“As for the material you mentioned…”
Lin Qi actually had something!
The Extraordinary Material Technology he’d had King Arthur acquire earlier was now unexpectedly proving its worth.
Although the material was akin to a one-way permeable membrane, it could constrain Spiritual Particles as long as it was oriented correctly.
With this, the bombardment channel Liu Xuan wanted could be easily created.
“But the problem is, even if we achieve bombardment, it will be difficult to detect changes in the ‘Phase State’ with an instrument…”
Just as Lin Qi raised his doubt, the light in Liu Xuan’s left eye brightened slightly.
Liu Xuan said, “For that, we’ll need the Extraordinary Core from an instrument I developed years ago. The manufacturing process is complex, but two days should be enough time. That Extraordinary Core was originally something I created to bridge the gap between ordinary people and Extraordinary Professionals. The data you want can be detected directly with it.”
After she finished speaking, Liu Xuan’s brow furrowed slightly.
