Dual Worlds: I Have a Doomsday World

Her expression was quite strange, as if to say, 'Old geezer! Do you even hear yourself?'

In the past twenty-plus years, those were words usually said by others about her.

Xu Qinghe had always been the recognized genius of Nanyun Potion, but now, after the appearance of Lin Qi and Liu Xuan, things seemed to have changed...

Xu Qinghe pouted, but she suddenly heard someone from her project team shout, "Chief, we've had a breakthrough! We've overcome the technical hurdle!"

A smile returned to Xu Qinghe's face.

Looking across the entire site, among all the teams, the one led by Xu Qinghe was making the fastest progress.

Her exceptionally high Inspiration Talent was still at work!

...

After settling Liu Xuan in, Lin Qi returned to the experimental site.

Lin Qi's own task wasn't finished yet. While the others were busy tackling technical difficulties, Lin Qi was writing his paper, word by word.

Lin Qi needed to articulate and refine the "Phase Theory" in writing, and even use logical language to explain the process by which he discovered it.

Without Spiritual Vision, it would have been nearly impossible for Lin Qi to discover the existence of the "Phase State."

But with Spiritual Vision, after formally discovering the existence of the "Phase State," Lin Qi could work backward from the effect to the cause, creating a closed logical loop.

Lin Qi cited a large volume of S-Class Pharmacy Literature, most of it from the papers of Lin Changshou, Xu Chun, Nan Tianming, and Li Miaomiao. By summarizing the hypotheses proposed in their work and adding his own insights, he successfully transformed his "deduction from effect to cause" into a "deduction from cause to effect."

He proposed the "Phase State" through conjecture and then proved it through experimentation.

In this massive paper, which already exceeded two hundred thousand words, Lin Qi used rigorous logical deduction, supplemented by the findings from the "inspiration" previously described by Xu Qinghe.

The "Phase Theory" was gradually growing roots, embedding itself firmly in the soil of established theory.

Looking at Lin Qi's paper alone, future Pharmaceutical Researchers would only see it as a natural step forward in the Pharmacy Domain's development, not a deus ex machina brought about by "Spiritual Vision."

'Writing it this way completely erases the dominant role of Spiritual Vision.'

'As long as they follow this line of reasoning, any S-Class Pharmaceutical Researcher can replicate the process of articulating this theory.'

Lin Qi had gone to great lengths to hide his "Spiritual Vision."

During his 24 hours in the Doomsday World, Lin Qi had already considered this aspect and had mentally constructed the basic framework for the paper.

After completing sixty percent of the paper, Lin Qi looked up in satisfaction, scanning his surroundings.

The rest of the paper needed to be filled with data, which required waiting for the machines to be set up for production and for the teams led by the numerous S-Class researchers to complete their respective tasks.

Just as he lifted his head, Lin Qi suddenly saw an old man.

His hair was graying and his skin was severely wrinkled. At first glance, he looked as if he were on his last legs.

'Who's this?'

The name "Lin Changshou" immediately popped into Lin Qi's mind, but he quickly dismissed the thought.

It was because a young man was following beside him.

According to his own old man's description, his "bargain-bin grandpa" would only ever be surrounded by women.

And they would definitely be women between the ages of eighteen and twenty-eight!

Seeing the old man's style of dress, Lin Qi instinctively glanced at Xu Zhengming.

'This must be someone from the Xu Family, right?'

When Xu Zhengming noticed this, he quickly put down his work and led the old man over to Lin Qi.

Xu Zhengming said to Lin Qi, "Brother Lin Qi, let me introduce you. This is my father, and also a second-generation founder of Nanyun Potion."

'Second generation?'

Lin Qi was taken aback for a moment.

In Lin Qi's mind, the second-generation founders of Nanyun Potion in the Pharmacy Domain were supposed to be four people: Lin Changshou, Xu Chun, Nan Tianming, and Li Miaomiao.

But he quickly understood.

Xu Zhengming hadn't introduced him as a second-generation founder of Pharmacy, but as a second-generation founder of Nanyun Potion.

The two sounded similar, but they were worlds apart.

The latter was likely based merely on seniority.

'As for his Ability?'

'It's probably not weak.'

'But regardless of his achievements in the Pharmacy Domain, he was definitely a powerhouse in the field of Extraordinary Professions.'

Lin Qi showed his respect and greeted him according to their respective seniority: "Uncle Xu, hello. I've heard so much about you."

When Xu Tianyun heard Lin Qi's "I've heard so much about you," he knew the kid had most likely never heard of him.

But he didn't mind. Xu Tianyun just asked in a steady voice, "You must be Elder Lin's grandson, right? What you've kicked up this time is going to cause a massive stir. According to the intelligence I've received, quite a few Mercenaries have already accepted missions in the Pharmacy Domain, and that even includes moves from T0-level Mercenary Corps."

'Mercenary Corps?'

Hearing those two words, Lin Qi suddenly thought of Guang Ling.

He had been in World City for so long, yet there had been no word from Guang Ling at all.

Guang Ling had clearly said before that the Highest-Level Mercenary Corps might be making a lot of moves in World City.

Seeing Lin Qi fall silent, Xu Tianyun chuckled and said, "But you don't need to worry. The Alliance has already dispatched a sufficient number of experts to protect you. Besides, I'm here now. If some petty thieves dare to make a move, it'll be a good chance for an old man like me to stretch his legs."

As he spoke, Lin Qi sensed a powerful Spiritual Power and Will Power emanating from Xu Tianyun.

Lin Qi instantly made a judgment about Xu Tianyun's basic strength.

'A Tier Four Extraordinary Professional!'

'And definitely not a weak one among the Tier Fours!'

The pressure he exuded was much stronger than that of a novice Tier Four like King Arthur.

'His strength should be about the same as Master Ma's. He's most likely in the Tier Four Third Stage.'

'Stronger than King Arthur, weaker than Baili Xueyuan.'

'Taking the average, his strength is probably around Master Ma's level. He could probably take on one and a half to two and a half King Arthurs.'

'As for a Tier Four on Baili Xueyuan's level, even ten King Arthurs probably wouldn't be enough for her to fight.'

Lin Qi quickly replied, "With Uncle Xu here, I can rest easy."

Hearing Lin Qi's "flattery," Xu Tianyun was clearly in a good mood.

After all, in Xu Tianyun's eyes, Lin Qi was all but guaranteed to become a third-generation founder of Pharmacy.

This had nothing to do with the seniority of the previous generation.

As long as Lin Qi ushered in a new era for the Pharmacy Domain, he would essentially be starting a new page in the "genealogy of seniority."

While Lin Qi had yet to usher in this new era, Xu Tianyun could still indulge in the feeling of being his senior.

After getting his fix, Xu Tianyun didn't forget the real business at hand.

"Little Qi, is the experiment going smoothly? If you run into any difficulties, these old bones of mine can lend a hand."

"When it comes to Talent in Pharmacy, not many are stronger than me, Xu Tianyun. Although this old man is over ninety, my inspiration is still as strong as ever."

"I made a point of arriving early precisely to contribute to the progress in our Pharmacy Domain!"

Xu Tianyun spoke righteously, directly "demanding" work from Lin Qi.

Hearing Xu Tianyun say this, Lin Qi felt a bit troubled.

All the work had already been assigned!

What spare project was there for Elder Xu to mess around with?

You have to understand, just to get Nanyun Potion on board, Lin Qi had already wracked his brains to cobble together numerous projects.

A lot of the work only seemed important but was, in fact, unnecessary.

Lin Qi frowned.

Xu Zhengming, who was standing to the side, saw what was happening and quickly said, "Qinghe's project is facing some difficulties. Father, why don't you go help her out?"

Xu Tianyun just wanted to be involved in the dawn of the Pharmacy 3.0 era. As for how he'd be involved, or how much he'd contribute?

Xu Tianyun didn't care.

"Qinghe? Sigh, Qinghe is bringing shame to our Xu Family. Fine, I'll go help her out myself. At least she's still a genius of our Xu Family..."

Not far away, Xu Qinghe overheard this, and even more question marks popped up over her head.

'Old geezer!'

'Do you even hear what you're saying?'

'Looking at this whole site, is there any other project team whose progress is faster than mine?'

'Stop spouting such blatant lies!'
