Chapter 22 Investing and Taking Risks

Such a billionaire actually lives in a laboratory, Tan Zongming can't understand.

Mark did not explain that he and Tan Zongming have different worldviews.

"Mark, why don't I live here too, so it's convenient to take care of Xiao Ming." Andy said.

Mark hurriedly shook his head: "No, Xiao Ming will leave it to me, and you have to preside over the company's affairs." You can come and see him whenever you have time. ”

The four of them walked around the laboratory, and Tan Zongming asked curiously, "Mark, what do I think of a small laboratory inside?" What's that for? ”

"It's just my private lab." Mark said casually.

Tan Zongming shook his head, he was not good at research work, so he didn't ask much.

Neither Tan Zongming nor Andy thought that for Mark, this private laboratory was his real purpose.

After sending Tan Zongming and Andy away, Mark arranged Xiao Ming next door. It was a two-bedroom dormitory, where Mark and Xiao Ming rested.

"Xiao Ming, these are the drinks I prepared for you, every hour, you drink a bottle. The time cannot be short, nor can it be long. After drinking these four bottles, you draw. After you're done, you go there to find me, understand? Mark explained.

Xiao Mingmu nodded, when he walked, his body was a little uncoordinated. However, these did not prevent him from carrying out Mark's orders.

What Mark gave to Xiao Ming was a nourishing elixir, but it was an enhanced version. Although the elixir has no effect on Mark himself, it is very precious to ordinary people. If you keep taking it, it is no problem for ordinary people to double their mental strength.

Mark judged that Xiao Ming's sanity was not confused, and his mental illness was only due to his lack of mental power, which caused him to be unable to control himself at some times. Therefore, he first replenished Xiao Ming's mental strength, and if it still didn't work, then he had to rely on Mark for spiritual counseling.

With Ming out of the way, Mark returns to his private lab.

Mark's private lab doesn't have any fancy equipment, it's more like a high school teaching lab, and all the equipment is primitive. It's not that Mark doesn't have the money to buy equipment, it's that he doesn't need it. The research results here, Mark is to bring back to the Magic Continent, and the Magic Continent does not have high-end equipment in the technological world.

Mark locks the door to the lab, and the lab goes dark. None of this had an effect on Mark, though.

A few minutes later, a silver light appeared in the center of the laboratory, and Mark's face loomed in the light of the silver light.

"Stargate, I want to see what secrets you have!"

Mark summoned the stargate, and the illusory stargate floated, looking fantastic.

Immediately afterwards, Mark took out the meteorite he got from Hu Yifei. On the same day, Hu Yifei finally agreed to Mark's request. Mark also made good on his promise and paid her 10 million.

"Ding......

After the meteorite appeared, a crisp sound was remembered in the laboratory, and after that, the meteorite slowly drifted towards the star gate, and finally disappeared into it. Mark looked at the stargate again, and the stargate seemed to have undergone some subtle changes.

"This meteorite actually merged with the stargate, strange, strange!"

Mark found that the truth was not what he had guessed, and he had thought that the meteorite was related to the first star to be lit up on the stargate, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Could it be that Stargate can absorb all the meteorites?" Mark couldn't help but have one more thought, he put away the star gate, walked out of the laboratory, and spent half a day buying a meteorite. This time, though, his experiment failed, and Stargate had no feelings for the meteorite.

"It seems that Yifei's meteorite is still different from ordinary meteorites."

Mark studied for two days and ended up with no results, which made him a little frustrated. At the same time, he was more curious about whether Andy had something similar.

"I can sense the stargate more clearly now, is this my delusion?"

After reclaiming the stargate, Mark noticed something different. In the past, although the stargate was in his body, he only had a vague sense, but now, Mark can already sense the specific outline of the stargate in his body. This shows that the connection between Mark and Stargate has deepened a lot.

"It turns out that this is what meteorites do."

Mark nodded secretly, the stargate is a treasure, that's for sure. But although this treasure is in Mark's hands, Mark can't control it. Mark suspects that if he doesn't master it thoroughly, maybe one day the stargate will fly away.

Something like this, Mark will definitely not allow it to happen!

"It's not in vain that I did this experiment, for the sake of the Star Gate, I even gave up the opportunity to become a magician in advance!"

Mark didn't have to let the meteorite and the stargate merge so early, with the meteorite in hand, Mark's spiritual power grew faster. Still, Mark took the meteorite out. It was important for him to be a magician, but it was even more important to find out where the Star Gate came from.

Mark had no choice but to put it aside. In the past few days, Mark has been studying in the laboratory with other researchers, who were dug up by Mark at a great price, and his foundation is very solid. With their teachings, Mark has made rapid progress.

During the day, Mark worked with the researchers, and at night, Mark was busy in his private lab. In addition to keeping an eye on Xiao Ming's condition, Mark spent almost all of his energy on studying. At the same time, under the stimulation of the electric current, Mark's spiritual power is getting closer and closer to the threshold of the magician.

"Andy, where's Mark?" Red Pine Forest Beverage Company, Tan Zongming found the busy Andy.

Andy didn't raise his head and said, "He's in the lab." ”

"Andy, how long has it been since Mark came to the company?" Tan Zongming asked.

"It's been more than two months...... Old Tan, what's wrong? Andy said.

Tan Zongming said: "Recently, many venture capital institutions have approached me and want to invest in Korean pine forests, because they believe that the development potential of nourishing drugs is very high, especially in medical treatment. In this regard, Xiao Ming's recovery is the best evidence. Mark is the company's largest shareholder, and this matter is still up to him to decide. ”

"Old Tan, with the current state of the company's development, it is not a wise decision to accept investment." Andy said.

Tan Zongming nodded: "I also have this idea, but Mark seems to be in a hurry to get money." He had told me before that he could transfer a portion of his shares as long as the price was right. ”

"Then let's go find him together, it just so happens that I also want to see Xiao Ming."

When Andy and Tan Zongming came to the lab, Mark was taking Xiao Ming to do a purification experiment. This time, they were going to extract a substance from a tree that grows in the Amazon forest, which has a strong stimulating effect on the human spirit.

"Xiao Ming, have you remembered the steps of the operation?" Mark asked.

Xiao Ming nodded, his mental illness had been cured, and now, his mental power was stronger than that of ordinary people, and there was no problem at all to be Mark's helper.

"Be careful when operating!" Mark told him that what he was going to extract could be said to be a neurotoxin, and ordinary people would hallucinate as long as they inhaled it, and then have a mental breakdown, and in any more serious case, they would die directly. Xiao Ming's spiritual power is stronger than ordinary people, but he can't carry this substance.

"Buzz ......"

The machine was turned on, and the two pieces of red wood were chewed up by powerful plates, and under the action of centrifugal force, the dark purple goo was slowly separated, and finally entered the bottle that Mark had already prepared.

"Xiao Ming, you can stop!" Mark said, and Xiao Ming nodded and turned the machine off.

"Finally the kiss of death......" Mark looked at the viscous layer of the bottle, his gaze uncertain.

"Big brother, what are you going to do with it?" Xiao Ming walked behind Mark and asked, "This thing is too dangerous, once the bottle is broken, this smell from the Kiss of Death can kill nearly a hundred people!" ”

Mark looked at Xiao Ming, a smile on the corner of his mouth. Xiao Ming and Andy are worthy of being sisters and brothers, both of whom have high IQs. Previously, because of mental problems, Xiao Ming's IQ could not be brought into play, but after being cured by Mark, Xiao Ming's talent quickly appeared. Otherwise, he would not have been Mark's assistant.

"This kiss of death will work a lot for me...... Mark sighed.

Half a month ago, Mark's spiritual power had exceeded nine times that of ordinary people, close to the bottom line of a formal magician. But after half a month, Mark's mental power could no longer increase a little, and the electric shock lost its effect. To this day, Mark is still stuck outside the threshold of an official magician.

This situation made Mark scold his mother, and he was about to achieve his goal, but he missed the door!

After calming down, Mark knew he must have hit a bottleneck. You must know that magicians are not so easy to achieve, otherwise there would not be only a few magicians in the entire Roman Continent.

Mark himself is not very qualified, and if he does not have adventures, he has no hope of becoming a magician in this life. But just because there are adventures doesn't mean it's going to be smooth sailing.

"It's a hurdle for an apprentice magician to become a magician. Ten times the spiritual power and nine times the spiritual power seem to be not much different, but in fact, they are really worlds apart! Nine times the spiritual power, this is the limit of ordinary people, break this limit, in order to become a magician. ”

Mark knew very well that his current cultivation was in a bottleneck, and in order to cross this ditch, Mark decided to take a risk and use the Kiss of Death to stimulate his spiritual power, so as to break through!

This is the reason why Mark refined the kiss of death!
