From Terra to Terra, the Star Emperor's Holiday

"Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals is your company. Does signing this contract mean I'm employed by Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals? Does that mean I can apply for the full amount of mineralogy inhibitors for my research on mineralogy?"

Although the mineral sickness inhibitors also flowed out of Casimir, thanks to the timely control of the synths, the amount of the outflow was inversely proportional to the price. Even some of the top wealthy people would shake their heads when they saw it.

As the director of the Structural Department, Parvis's main research direction is the structure and morphology of Terra organisms. When it comes to the organisms themselves, Originium is an unavoidable factor. As a researcher who is quite stubborn about experimental results, he cares more about the resources he can obtain by signing this contract.

"Arents Parvis, I know you, but the [Ember Demon Project] or anything like it is meaningless to Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals. If you're willing to change your subject, I can introduce you to a top researcher in Originium studies to discuss with you."

Si Ye was making empty promises without any sincerity. It couldn't be said that what Parvis was researching was completely useless, but it certainly wasn't very useful either.

However, scientific researchers are all seekers of truth. If he is really willing to obey, Si Ye doesn't mind letting the doctor show off his skills to this old Caprini.

After all, compared to Muirses or Saria, Parvis is too old. It is unknown how many years he can live after learning the advanced technology of the empire. If he fails to show his value, the Star Empire's life extension technology will not be wasted on worthless people.

"...May I ask why? Imbuing weak creatures with fragments of powerful creatures to elevate their overall quality is crucial..."

Parvis was indeed a qualified scholar and researcher, but the Caprini were not a race characterized by longevity. Old age and frailty became a shadow in his heart, which was why he put all his energy into the [Chimera Experiment]. He was pursuing technology to sublimate the essence of life.

But Si Ye didn't let him finish his words. Instead, he pointed his finger casually, and a lavender electric light struck Parvis, completely submerging Parvis's figure.

"tutor!"

Hemer, who was standing by, screamed in fear, and the heads of various departments, thinking that Si Ye had launched an attack, began to hide and flee.

"That's why I rejected your project,"

The light faded, and Si Ye's voice echoed in the conference room. The department heads all looked in Parvis' direction, and then they saw a scene that made them drop their jaws.

Parvis was one of the sheep among the Caprini. His two distinctive sheep ears had always been a symbol of his identity, but now the ears disappeared, replaced by two rugged, forward-pointing horns. The originally gentle black eyes behind his glasses also turned into a mixed yellow.

"Vaivan..."

I don't know who said this, but the entire conference room fell into an even more solemn silence.

A living Caprini turned into a Vaifan with just a casual finger from Si Ye.

The heads of various departments present quickly used their portable instruments to detect and quickly rule out the possibility that this was a sleight of hand or Originium technique.

“…It’s incredible.”

For others, they can only see the changes in Parvis's appearance, but for Parvis himself, from the average Caprini to Vaifan, his aging body quickly became full of vitality and strength. These feelings are more terrifying than addictive drugs, making him intoxicated.

"Chimera hybrid technology is already a finished product. This is why I asked you to stop the [Evil Demon Project], because that kind of half-finished technology is no longer meaningful."

Of course, what Si Ye used on Parvis was actually psychic simulation, but he also communicated with the doctor, and the doctor did have the technology to chimera ordinary Terrans, so Si Ye was not deceiving Parvis.

There was another flash of light, and Parvez turned back into Caprini. The shock of this back-and-forth transformation made the gentle researcher's eyes bloodshot, and he almost stood up.

"I...you...didn't expect that my research has fallen behind? This is really..."

Parvis struggled to calm down his emotions, feeling a little depressed but also a little excited, and signed his name on the contract.

"I am willing to accept all your arrangements..."

Chapter 175 Ferdinand

First, the mineral sickness medicine.

Then there's the mysterious technology that rewrites race.

The heads of various departments, who originally had different thoughts, suddenly looked at the contract of selling themselves in front of them with clear eyes.

After all, mineral disease drugs represent endless wealth on the Terra continent.

Mysterious technology represents the unknown, which is simply the strongest trap for those engaged in scientific research.

Rhine Life currently has only nine departments. Director Dorothy of the tenth department, the Originium Technology Research Department, should still be working in a Colombian government agency. Si Ye still has to consider whether to ask the President to transfer her over.

After the four departments represented by Kristen, Muirseth, Saria and Parvis signed the contract, excluding the Business Department responsible for business contact affairs and the Human Resources Assessment Department responsible for human resources management, there are only three departments left that are of value.

They are:

Director of the Energy Department, which studies energy utilization: Ferdinand Clooney

Nastie Runorei, Director of Engineering Department responsible for the maintenance and construction of Rhine Life Sciences equipment

Mariam Mary, Director of the Scientific Expedition Section, who is responsible for scientific research and expanding the scope of knowledge

However, the director of the scientific investigation department is still leading a team to conduct an investigation outside, and only an assistant director came. Due to the nature of its work, the engineering department cooperates closely with the energy department and is now basically waiting for the opinion of the director of the energy department.

Ferdinand Clooney, a middle-aged film director, is the director of the energy department. He has an extremely wide network of contacts in Colombia and can often obtain abundant resource support for Rhine Life.

But at the same time, his style of doing things is also very radical. In the original plot, he once cooperated with the Colombian military to undermine Kristen's power.

However, Si Ye showed his unfathomable strength on Parvis, and Ferdinand had to restrain his previous radical style and look at the contract in front of him with caution.

"Mr. Si Ye, the Energy Department has always had in-depth cooperation with various parties in Colombia. If we rashly interrupt this cooperation, various breaches of contract and obstacles will ensue, which will probably be detrimental to the development of Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals in Colombia."

Putting aside those regulations that were similar to a contract of sale, Ferdinand focused his attention on the commercial terms.

Energy is something that everyone cannot avoid in modern life, which also makes the Energy Department one of the most profitable departments in Rhine Life.

However, the terms proposed by Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals were as if money would fall from the sky without them having to make a profit. This counterintuitive regulation made Ferdinand, who was accustomed to various business payments, very uncomfortable.

"Liquidated damages are a minor issue. As for the constraints caused by the termination of cooperation, the relationship between Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals and the President of Colombia is closer than you imagine. I believe no company or individual would dare to put obstacles in the way of Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals."

It happened again. Si Ye's indifferent attitude towards money and resources made Ferdinand frown slightly. It was too counterintuitive. It gave him the feeling that the other party was not running a company, but just playing around.

"Closely related?"

The President of Colombia is the idol of every Colombian, so when Ferdinand heard Si Ye's words, he subconsciously asked.

"Yes, your President Mark Max. He's in the lounge downstairs now. Do you want me to call him up?"

Si Ye pointed to the floor. The President should still be pestering the doctor in the lounge downstairs. Compared with the slightly crazy President in the original book, this President recognized by the preserver is simply a living treasure.

"what?"

Ferdinand made a filin, but made the sound of Liberi.

First, there was the inexplicable kindness of the senior agent of the Melander Foundation, and then there was the President of Colombia. Ferdinand was a little overwhelmed. With such a background, Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals was not a foreign company at all. It was a local tyrant in Colombia.

"...There's no need to bother the President with this kind of thing... But if we follow your plan, what should Rhine Life or the Energy Department do next?"

Ferdinand's tone softened. As a scientific researcher, if he could focus on research without worrying about funding, he certainly wouldn't want to waste time dealing with those company bureaucrats.

"New energy, or rather, new energy that is independent of Originium energy."

It’s not that there are no coal mines or oil on the Terra continent, but with the high-energy mineral Originium in the former, the significance of the latter’s existence is too subtle.

Moreover, for a behemoth like a mobile plot, only the power of the Originium Furnace can meet its movement consumption.

But later, the main body of Originium was moved away by the doctor and his team. Although some Originium will still remain on the Terra continent, the loss of the main Originium veins will inevitably lead to the disappearance of natural disasters. Originium will become a non-renewable resource, and it is inevitable to find new energy alternatives.

Just treat it as a test paper. If Mr. Ferdinand can complete the discovery and utilization of new energy under Si Ye's guidance, then there will definitely be a place for him in the Academy of Sciences of the Star Empire.

"new energy?"

Ferdinand hesitated, as if he didn't understand what Si Ye meant.

Originium has been entangled with the current civilization of Terra for far too long. People suffer from oripathy and pray for a cure, but have never considered what to do if Originium disappears.

“The Energy Department has always…”

"Whether it's the energy furnace or the energy well developed by the Energy Department, their essence is to make more efficient use of Originium energy. I hope you can come up with a new energy source that can get rid of the constraints of Originium."

It goes against common sense, too much against common sense. Ferdinand frowned, not understanding why Si Ye would go so far as to seek the answer. But Si Ye seemed not to notice the confusion on his face and continued to talk.

"To be honest, Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals, or rather, I, possess an energy system that is even more perfect than Originium. So, you can treat this new energy issue as a test. If you succeed, I promise you a vaster world where you can fully display your talents."

It's not like Si Ye hasn't done this kind of thing before, capturing scientists from pre-nuclear civilizations. It can only be said that he is very familiar with using coercion and inducement.

"A more vast world?"

Ferdinand was a very enterprising scientist, and Guangmao hit the nail on the head. He subconsciously looked at Christen beside him, wanting to get some information from the former commander-in-chief.

“It is indeed a vaster world…”

Seeing Ferdinand looking over, Christen nodded. Just that spaceship must have used technology that was completely different from the energy technology tree of the Terra continent. It would not be a problem to say that it was a more vast world.

"…Ha ha."

Although he was still a little skeptical, Ferdinand's curiosity as a scientific researcher was indeed aroused. He read the contract again and then signed his name.

"That's true. I haven't taken an exam in years since graduation. It's a truly novel experience. I'm looking forward to the new world you mentioned. I hope Energy Co., Ltd. and Ferdinand will serve you."

Chapter 176: The Test on the Tundra

Ursus Tundra...

The snake scales in unmarked military uniforms advanced on the frozen ground. Subtle sounds were transmitted between these snake scales. They were communicating through secret codes between the snake scales.

"The nearby infected patrol team has been transferred away."

"The number of young and strong people in the village is also wrong. They are very vigilant. Without using strong measures, I can't get more information."

They were ordered by the Black Snake Kashena to investigate the plans of the integration movement in the tundra.

But as soon as they arrived in the tundra, the Snake Scales discovered that this place was far stranger than the news they had received in the Holy Castle.

The army group is in an abnormal state of contraction. This month is the time for each mine to recruit miners. The infected patrol teams that should be actively catching infected people are not active in the tundra, where there are the most infected people, for some reason.

The young and strong people in the village are nowhere to be found, and the elderly people who stay in the village are extremely wary of anyone who inquires about the information of the infected people, and even Snake Scales almost overturned the car.

"These villages seem to be helping a mysterious organization."

"There is only one organization in the tundra that doesn't belong to the Empire: the Reunion Movement, controlled by the Grand Duke's daughter."

"But a group of infected people shouldn't have such power, even if that person's 'Shield' is also in the Reunion Movement."

The snake scales were full of doubts and confusion. The black snake Kosice's plan could succeed or fail, but what was going on with this current situation?

"Whether or not we should risk getting close to the Reunion Movement, you and I can both sense that there is also a Lord Black Snake here."

"us..."

One of the snakes wanted to express some opinions, but accidentally glanced at a potato next to a tree that was half submerged in mud and water, and an inexplicable sense of crisis came over him.

boom!
