The time is quietly seven or eight days, and the Ocean Group here has entered the golden autumn of October. However, this golden autumn, no one can get excited.

The plague has been raging all over the world for more than half a month, and although the world has established one quarantine zone after another under the call of the Ocean Group, the effect is not ideal.

The mobility of cultivators is too strong, and the germs move with the air, so there is no real safe place in the whole world.

Wild monsters have begun to fall, one by one.

The number of sick practitioners has already accounted for 20% of known practitioners, and it continues to spread, and the millions of seriously ill people choose to seal up and wait for their chance. At this time, there seems to be little hope in sight.

The whole world was in a panic. Society has also suffered serious damage. At this time, Dayang Group was also under too much pressure.

People may have been somewhat sane at first, but as the plague spreads and explodes, and as a large number of people become critically ill and sealed, people gradually turn their grievances against the Ocean Group.

Yes, no matter how nice your Dayang Group says, at least now this disaster broke out because of the direct cause of your Dayang Group.

In short, Dayang Group really did good deeds with tears in his eyes this time.

The negotiations between the Dayang Group and the Xuanhuang Group have basically stopped.

Under such circumstances, if everyone still cares about engaging in negotiations and bargaining, it will really be self-isolation from the people.

The Xuanhuang Group wanted to take the opportunity to exert pressure, but the Dayang Group put all negotiations on the grounds that disaster relief was the priority.

The only good news is that the plague has not affected the foundation period and below.

So what is maintaining the operation of society now is a group of "masters" in the foundation building period!

Oh, and there's also the Law Phase. After actual observation, everyone found that as long as the cultivation is really hot and runs continuously, it is basically possible to eliminate infection, but this is a privilege that only Faxiang-level masters have.

In particular, it is important to point out that not all of them are qualified to practice True Fire - most of those who are on the royal path are unable to practice, and this is a problem caused by the cultivation system.

Therefore, the current situation of Xuanhuang Group is not very optimistic. Dayang Group is now under tremendous pressure from public opinion, while Xuanhuang Group is under tremendous pressure to survive.

Under the huge crisis and pressure, Xuanhuang Group is also actively looking for solutions. But this time the plague was so extraordinary that it could be explained by the traditional and imperfect medicine of the world of practice:

This is caused by the invasion of external evils, not by the problem caused by heat stroke, cold, etc., so conventional treatment methods are almost useless. Even taking pills indiscriminately will aggravate the condition.

At present, the only thing that has a soothing effect on the condition is the cultivation of True Fire.

In addition, there is half good news - the sharks of the Ocean Group have found a phenomenon, that is, marine life does not seem to be affected, including the sharks themselves!

Life in the sea was almost unaffected, but most of the monsters in the land and freshwater were affected.

After the news was made public by the Ocean Group, the price of marine medicinal materials rose in response, and a large number of marine monsters were hunted - well, marine life was still affected.

However...... It's useless! There is no way for people to get what they need from marine life and medicinal herbs. The indiscriminate refining of the elixir caused a lot of deaths.

The Dayang Group specifically reported on this matter.

There are also people who try to enter the sea to practice, believing that it is caused by the environment of the sea. But the result is obvious, it still doesn't work.

Therefore, the discovery that marine life is not affected can only be regarded as half good news. It can only be said that it brings a little hope to the world, but that's about it.

The outside world is still chaotic, or panicked.

But Zu Qianyue was not easy. At this time, Zu Qianyue was sitting in the embassy - this was only recently built here in the Ocean Group, and the problem that Zu Qianyue was facing at this time was an allocation: 240 million spirit yuan/high-grade spirit stone.

And this is not the first grant.

Speaking of which, at the beginning, the Xuanhuang Group still wanted to drag and drag the yellow. But they underestimate the means of the Ocean Group too much.

First of all, Dayang Group allocated 3 billion Lingyuan very simply, and Luzhou Bank jointly established a 'plague fund' by combining the banking and financial systems of all parties in the strategic alliance.

The office address of the Plague Fund is located here at the headquarters of Dayang Group, that is, here in Ninghe City, and a one-story office building is temporarily rented.

The Plague Fund publishes bounties in the Fund's office or mercenary guilds in the form of posting quests, mainly for the plague.

For example, the merman tribe discovered the characteristics of marine life, and after approval, the plague fund finally gave the merman tribe a reward of 1.8 million spirit yuan/high-grade spirit stone.

It's just a discovery, but after all, it's the first discovery, and it's of great significance, so 1.8 million spirit yuan is still good.

From the perspective of fairness and justice, the establishment of this fund is still of positive significance, but for the Xuanhuang Group, for Zu Qianyue, this so-called plague fund is like a big mouth of blood, and it is facing the Xuanhuang Group.

In just a few days, the Dayang Group and the strategic alliance led by the Dayang Group have continued to inject funds into the plague fund.

Each injection is not much, except for a large amount of capital injection at the beginning, the next two days will basically inject money, a family of about millions at a time, but when gathered, it is not a small number. Almost every time the overall capital injection is about 200 million.

The Dayang Group and the strategic alliance took advantage of this to hype up and control public opinion.

Zu Qianyue was a little reluctant to take out 100 million yuan at the beginning and inject it into the plague fund, but with the actions of the Dayang Group, Zu Qianyue suddenly understood that this was not a fight for wealth, but an alternative war.

Therefore, the Xuanhuang Group can't help but say something, and it can't be too low.

But here's the problem, this plague fund is completely the white glove of the strategic alliance itself, no matter how much money people inject, it is a matter of left hand to right hand. But the Xuanhuang Group injected capital into the fund, that is, real money was thrown out - money is not such a waste, not to mention that the Xuanhuang Group is now overstretched.

Next to him, Zuo Baihong looked at Zu Qianyue's hesitant and even trembling hands, and couldn't help but say, "Palace Master, why don't we create a fund by ourselves?"

When Zu Qianyue heard this, he smiled bitterly, "It's easy to say." But we don't have the experience, let alone the talent.

Moreover, the Dayang Group already has this fund, and if we open up another one, what do you think others will think of us? Do you think the Dayang Group will let go of this opportunity?"

Zuo Baihong opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word. Yes, if the Xuanhuang Group sets up another fund, the Ocean Group will definitely not let go of this opportunity - in this case, you Xuanhuang Group wants to play splitting, what do you mean.

But just accepting the exploitation of Dayang Group, Zuo Baihong was not reconciled. Of course, Zu Qianyue and the Xuanhuang Group were not reconciled.

But no matter how unwilling he is, he can only grit his teeth now.

But it didn't end there. Just three days later, less than 20 days after the outbreak of the plague, the Great Ocean Group finally made a very official announcement:

The laboratory has achieved decisive research results. Zhou Xueyao led the research team to extract multiple groups of active substances from marine life, which can specifically inhibit the fungus of this plague.

Yes, suppress, not exterminate. But for cultivators, as long as they can inhibit the reproduction of fungi, their strong physical fitness can heal themselves.

Zhou's team has extracted a variety of active ingredients from marine life, specifically amino acids found in several types of marine life.

Some of these amino acids are slightly toxic but have significant effects, while others are non-toxic and have weak effects.

The sources of amino acids are also different, some from seaweed, some from jellyfish, some from high-level dragon monsters, and some from low-level, ordinary fish monsters.

Different amino acids are needed for different cultivations, different physiques, different ways of practice, and even different diseases.

The specific is still being studied, but at least for now, it has been determined that these amino acids extracted from marine life have miraculous effects.

Moreover, after clinical trials, these carefully selected amino acids have very few side effects, at least for cultivators, even if they are used wrongly, it is just a big deal to have a bad stomach. Compared to the current plague, it is completely negligible.

When the news spread, it immediately caused a storm.

Most people only see the surface and feel that the plague has been solved by the Ocean Group again.

However, the slightly clever people, or perhaps the little clever, began to figure out: it was only less than twenty days to come up with the 'antidote', this plague could not have been deliberately caused by the Ocean Group, right? Not to mention, such a statement is very marketable, and there are some ill-intentioned guys behind it.

But the really smart people see it more profoundly: in the face of sudden things and global disasters, the response methods and efficiency of the Ocean Group are amazing.

From the beginning of the red flying insects to the current plague, the strong response ability shown by Dayang Group is ...... Disturbed!

But there are smarter people, but they see the next turmoil: there is an 'antidote' on the side of the Dayang Group, so the relationship between the Dayang Group and the Xuanhuang Group is afraid to move.

Previously, the Xuanhuang clique had also explicitly or covertly promoted the slogan of "one world, two blocs" and had received widespread support, especially those that did not deal with the Dayang clique and some neutral forces.

But now, I'm afraid the situation is about to change.

Now the majority of smart people are more concerned about: how to start next for Dayang Group?

In the attention of the whole world, the next day Dayang Group finally made a move: Dayang Group applied for financial support from the 'Plague Fund' and prepared to build a factory completely against the plague;

The factory is a joint-stock plant and collects funds from all over the world. The amount of shares held by each party is calculated according to the capital injection of each party, and the shares will also be directly related to the distribution of the 'antidote' in the later stage.

At present, the Ocean Group is only a proposal for the time being, and more specifically, it is natural to convene a 'world congress'. The news spread, and there was an uproar.
