Chapter 136: Advanced Potions (II)
Leona stayed after all, and despite Robin's reluctance, Leona's offer made it impossible for him to refuse this tempting offer. (Vertex Hand Hit)
One hundred finished advanced elixirs, if the efficacy of this batch of advanced elixirs is roughly equivalent to the advanced elixirs injected by Shirley, then the price of these hundred advanced elixirs alone is as high as hundreds of millions of federal coins. With such a batch of potions, Robin can quickly build an elite army before the expedition to the Barnard system, and its importance for the future development of the fleet is self-evident.
In addition, Leona's personal worth was also an important reason for Robin's decision. Since the advanced potion developed by Leona is purely using nuclear energy, the cost is extremely low, and the production process is not complicated, so Leona alone can make this advanced potion that can quickly increase the combat effectiveness of the army on a large scale. In addition, Leona's superb medical technology can also provide excellent medical security for the autonomous region, and provide effective medical treatment for the military and citizens of the autonomous region.
In today's space age, the breakthrough leap of medical devices has solved most of the so-called terminal diseases of the old era, but genetic diseases, which are unique to the new era, have become more and more common, and have replaced cancer and cardiovascular diseases in the old era, becoming the disease with the highest mortality rate in the new era.
In a sense, genetic diseases are a major test for humanity in the new arena of the universe. When human beings from the earth fly into space and face a completely different living environment from the earth, radiation, various space rays, weightlessness, air pressure, air content ratio, etc. will imperceptibly change human genes, and this is often called genetic mutation in biology.
Genetic mutation, which is a huge help to promote the evolution of life on earth from single-celled organisms to higher intelligent life, in the history of life development on the earth for hundreds of millions of years, organisms have been experiencing such a process all the time, with the way of self-evolution according to environmental changes, to launch a unique competition for survival in nature.
Once, as the only advanced intelligent life on earth, human beings once transcended the shackles of nature and completely got rid of this cruel competition for survival. However, from the moment human beings stepped into the universe, this competition began again, and the genetic mutation of human beings, which had been stagnant for thousands of years, was once again active in human history.
The advancement of various basic abilities, the fusion of special supernatural abilities, and so on are all the evolution of human beings brought about by genetic mutations. But at the end of the day, the law of survival in nature is still survival of the fittest, and while there are evolutionaries among these humans, more people are actually losers.
Stimulated by the changing environment of the universe, human beings living in the universe are facing the threat of genetic mutation all the time. When a genetic mutation strikes suddenly, the wealthy may be able to turn to a doctor and use special gene chain repair therapy to get through the difficulty. But the poor can't be so extravagant, and there are only two paths in front of them, success or failure.
Success means the advancement of personal ability, while failure means a gradual death.
Robin's current autonomous region has a population of more than 6 million, the vast majority of whom are penniless and poor in the eyes of the Confederacy. Although Robin has built some medical equipment and medical institutions, it is limited by the lack of medical technology, including Masha, most of the staff working in medical institutions do not have very professional medical technology, here, can skillfully operate various medical equipment, it is already an extremely rare medical talent.
As a result, the medical institutions of the Autonomous Region are limited to a few trauma patients, and there is no support for those with genetic diseases that suddenly cause genetic mutations. According to statistics, during the three months of Robin's reign, one hundred and twenty-five people died suddenly due to genetic diseases, in other words, almost three people died every two days.
Perhaps for those freedmen who have been wandering in the universe all year round, genetic diseases have long been a part of life, and they have become numb to it, or even accustomed to it. However, Robin, who had the intention of establishing the Autonomous Region as another republic, did not think so, he needed a stable and prosperous Autonomous Region, and he needed to give the freedmen more a sense of belonging to the Autonomous Region. As a result, he urgently needed a skilled physician to solve this problem for him, so even though he knew that leaving Leona would cause many consequences, Robin made this extremely risky decision.
"I hope I won't regret this decision in the future......" Sitting alone in his office, Robin looked out the window at the ethereal starry sky in a silent daze.
Today, Leona's words had a big impact on Robin, and those dusty memories of the past resurfaced in his mind.
He remembers when he was a kid and he lived with his father on Europa. At the time, his father was still the leading mining expert on the immigration planet, so he and his father had been living a good life in that era of poor resources. However, when he was young, he always envied the other children to have their mothers by their side, and often asked his father questions about his mother, and each time, his father always answered vaguely, and sometimes even became angry.
Gradually, as Robin grew up, he buried this question of his own in his heart. Even if his father didn't explain it to him, he found a reasonable excuse for himself to bury this lack of heart.
And after the age of ten, his father wanted Robin to grow up and develop better, so he was ready to send him to Wald's Third Military Academy in Martian City. To this day, Robin vividly remembers the bleak back of his father carrying an old suitcase to the academy.
From this day on, he no longer depended on his father, who gave up his easy job on Europa and went to Mercury to become a pioneer who gambled his life.
Robin has always believed that his father gave up his well-paid job because he needed to pay for his daily expenses in Wald, Martian City, and was willing to go to Mercury to fight for a higher salary. It is precisely because of this that he has always felt indebted to his father, feeling that he is dragging his father down. However, Leona's words today shattered his preconceived notion that his father had a hidden motive for Mercury.
This statement inadvertently hurts Robin, and even breaks the goal that Robin is fighting for to some extent. Robin wanted to forget Leona's words, but whenever he calmed down, the evidence that Leona had listed haunted him like a spell, and he couldn't get rid of it.
"To the Hoffman Empire?"
Uncontrollably, Robin had such thoughts. But then, he shook his head vigorously and said to himself hysterically: "No, I can't be at her mercy anymore, she is a dangerous woman, and I must not step into the trap she has set again."
Robin was inevitably a little agitated by the fierce exchange of thoughts, and he paced back and forth in the office restlessly, trying his best to convince himself to forget many of Leona's words.
At this moment, the office door suddenly opened, and Cecilia, dressed in military uniform, walked in, looking at Robin with a worried expression.
"Cecilia ......" Seeing that it was Cecilia who suddenly came in, Robin hurriedly concealed his inner anxiety and forced a calm question: "Xia Zuo and Shirley's accommodation has been arranged?" ”
"Yes, they've met a lot of former colleagues here, so they should be able to adapt to life here. As for Sean, Martina and Old Jack are negotiating with him, and I'm afraid that a concrete result will be discussed soon. ”
"yes, that's good... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
