Chapter 117: Explanation
Hearing Boyce's words, not only Eddie, but even Lu Yuan in the other world also sneered a few times. Boyce's guess was not surprising, since Eddie's ability to go on a killing spree at the FBI shows that he is not from the government, and he can come up with NZT, so it is not surprising to guess that it is the user of NZT.
Speaking of the appeal, Beuys slowly explained, as if he understood Eddie's purpose.
It turned out that he was also a user of NZT, but much earlier than Eddie got the drug, as early as more than a year ago, he was just an ordinary person, because of an accident, he was involved in something, and since then he has been entangled with NZT.
According to Beuys, NZT is a drug developed by Dr. Caris over a period of more than 20 years, but in the beginning, the efficacy of NZT was not valued by funders, not only was it not effective, but also the side effects were very large.
It was against this backdrop that funders withdrew their funds, but Dr. Caris did not give up and finally succeeded in developing the efficacy of NZT to Phase III.
In this third period, although NZT still has side effects, as long as you continue to take medicine, it will not be reflected in the body for a while, but it can be reflected in the human body, but it can bring amazing special effects.
Having been hit before, Dr. Carris did not rush to launch NZT, because he knew that such side effects would not be reflected in a short period of time, but it was still impossible to pass the FDA review, and he still would not get funding from those rich people.
Even during this time, the brain's potential will be fully developed and the person will become quite intelligent.
To address the side effects of NZT. Dr. Carris began to select clinical trials, secretly dispensing NZTs to them. Conducting clinical trials without approval would have led to decades in prison if caught, and Dr. Caris did not dare to take any more risks after personally sending out the drugs several times. Instead, several people were selected, ready to be used as assistants.
Boyce is one of them.
After eating NZT and experiencing the magical effects brought by NZT, Beuys fell into it and couldn't extricate himself, so he obeyed the doctor's orders and began to take over the work. A small amount of NZT is recorded, and the physical condition of the user is recorded as data for clinical trials.
"So...... Side effects solved? Hearing this, Eddie suddenly asked.
“…… Right. The side effects were resolved. ”
Boyce replied that it was because the side effects were successfully resolved that the clinical trial data was no longer needed, which is why he said last night that he no longer needed Wesson to ship.
"Take me to Dr. Karris." Eddie immediately asked to go to Dr. Karris, and the NZT side effects were resolved, meaning that he would not have to suffer the tragic consequences, neither for him nor for that person. All of them attach great importance to this.
Without saying anything more, Beuys began to show the way. Following the path he pointed, Eddie drove for about an hour and stopped at a farm in the suburbs.
"The Doctor is inside."
Boyce stepped out of the car and walked towards the door of the house, followed by Eddie vigilantly with a gun. Watch as Beuys expertly opens the door and looks back at him with a smile.
The house looks to be more than 20 years old, and you can always smell a musty smell when you walk in, and the layout in the hall of the house is quite in the style of the 80s of the last century. The biscuits on the table are moldy and haven't been touched for a long time.
"The Doctor is used to living alone, so he doesn't have the energy to clean up."
Seeing Eddie frowning, Boyce explained.
"Come with me, the Doctor should be in the basement by now."
It was obvious that the old house could not afford the space for pharmaceutical experiments, and it was obvious that the equipment would be moved to the basement. Eddie didn't feel any strange, and watched as Boyce pulled open the basement door and walked slowly.
The light in the basement was not bright, like an old incandescent lamp, emitting a faint glow, and Beuys had been here many times, and was very familiar with the situation, even if the light was not bright, he was used to going down.
Eddie first adjusted his eyes to the darkness inside, and then slowly stepped down the steps, looking around as well. Originally, a basement like this should not be too big, but when Eddie looked around, he immediately found that this basement had been expanded, and the area had increased tenfold, and under the dim light, he could not see the end.
"The Doctor has remodeled this place so that behind each door there is a separate lab."
Beuys explained, pushing open a door and shouting, "Doctor, are you there?" ”
The light behind the door was still a little dim, and after Beuys walked in, he shouted a few times without responding, and said strangely: "Why isn't the doctor here today?" Is something out of here? ”
"Not here?"
Eddie frowned and walked in, "Then where did he run to?" ”
"Boom!"
As soon as Eddie stepped into the door, Boyce suddenly dodged and rushed to the right, and suddenly there was a door on the right, and he just pushed it open and closed it immediately.
"Smack!"
Eddie's reaction was fast enough that Boyce shot as soon as he didn't even think about it.
Unfortunately, the lights were dim, and he didn't see the secret door, so he only had time to shoot on the right side of Boyce, and then lost his chance. At the same time, at the moment when he fired, the door to enter closed silently and automatically, and with a sudden slap, the metal vibration from it told Eddie that it was not something that could be destroyed by man.
"It's a pity, I'm just going to die here."
The dim light was suddenly replaced by a somewhat harsh white light, and Beuys's smug laughter was transmitted from all directions, making it impossible to tell where he was.
About twenty square rooms, empty, with a hard concrete floor and a clear glass on either side, and Beuys stood in the glass room on the right.
Eddie glanced at Boyce coldly, and instead of shooting, he stepped forward, touched his hand to the glass wall, and suddenly understood that it was bulletproof glass, no wonder Boyce dared to stand inside.
"Don't waste your efforts, with the gun in your hand, it is impossible to break this bulletproof glass."
Beuys said indifferently.
"You're not Boyce!"
Eddie didn't try to shoot the bulletproof glass with his gun, and after scanning around, he slowly withdrew his gaze and focused on Boyce, and said categorically.
"Oh?" Beuys was stunned.
"You're Dr. Karris, aren't you?" Eddie didn't fall into the trap of anger and said calmly.
“……”
Boyce was silent for a while, and then smiled slowly: "Guess right, I'm Karis, it's not your fault, under the asymmetry of information and intelligence, you definitely didn't think of it before." ”
"yes, what I didn't expect was how Dr. Karis could be so young. It was because of your youth that I believed your words and didn't think much about it. ”
"Yes, no one would have predicted how I could be so young."
Karis smiled: "NZT-48, this code name is obvious, it is not just a random number code. ”
"So you just said earlier that Dr. Karis is constantly updating the NZT and recording the patient's body data from clinical trials, so I would think that 48 is the code name that is constantly updated." Eddie said.
"I'm not lying to you, I've been improving the effects of NZT over the years, but I'm not just developing NZT that activates the brain's potential, but also NZT that can remodel DNA fragments that are missing due to complete transcription, enhance cell division rate, and broadly improve the repair ability of damaged tissues."
He opened his hands and was very proud: "Now that I have succeeded, not only the side effects of NZT-48 have been suppressed, but even NZT-44 has also succeeded at the same time, you see, am I physically strong?" If I told you that I was seventy years old, would you believe it? (To be continued.) )
