Rebirth: Controlled Nuclear Fusion

Part 197：Prescription

When the people of Dragon Country saw the video of Bai Yanlang kneeling and apologizing online, they were overwhelmed with a sense of satisfaction and justice.

Dragon Country Netizen 1: "Traitor! This is the consequence of betraying your own country! Ha-ha..."

Dragon Country Netizen 2: "Delightful!"

Dragon Country Netizen 3: "Seeing his swollen face kneeling before Dragon Country, I can only think of one word – 'satisfying!' Ha-ha..."

Dragon Country Netizen 4: "Let this be a lesson to anyone who dares to insult Dragon Country – this is the price!"

...

Watching Bai Yanlang receive the punishment he deserved, the people of Dragon Country felt as if they had won a great victory.

Soon after, the sales of Beautiful Country's products in Dragon Country slowly returned to normal, but through this incident, capitalists in Beautiful Country noticed a significant decline in their sales, now barely half of what they had been.

At the Dragon Country Medical Research Institute...

Upon hearing about Bai Yanlang's release of the 700-ton rocket engine technology and his subsequent suicide, Long Lao felt a mixture of emotions that were hard to describe. After all, Bai Yanlang had once been his student, someone he had invested a great deal of effort into cultivating. While Long Lao despised the student, he had never wished for his demise.

Jiang Fan, seeing Long Lao lost in thought on the second-floor balcony, understood that he was undoubtedly reflecting on Bai Yanlang.

"Teacher, everyone has their own fate. Besides, such a person is not worth your sorrow," Jiang Fan said.

Long Lao snapped out of his thoughts and smiled at Jiang Fan. Indeed! Everyone chose their own path; there was no need for him to be sentimental about someone else's fate.

"Xiao Fan, how are the preclinical trial data for the Long Dan pill?"

Jiang Fan smiled and replied, "They're perfect. The formula your student provided is absolutely reliable!"

Long Lao was pleased and chuckled.

"Xiao Fan, you didn't speak like this before. It's clear you've been spending time with Xiao Xi lately – even your way of speaking has a hint of hers. Heh-heh..."

Jiang Fan couldn't help but smile in response.

In truth, Jiang Fan did have a sense of humor, but during his years of rigorous scientific research, his sense of humor had been suppressed by the demands of seriousness.

"Teacher, our research on the NM-98 anti-cancer drug has already shown initial success in clinical trials. As soon as the Chinese medicine anti-cancer drug, Long Dan Pill, succeeds, we can mass-produce and launch it. This will solve the problem of cancer patients in Dragon Country not being able to afford their medication!"

Long Lao nodded in satisfaction.

When he founded the medical research institute, his original goal was to solve the problem of cancer patients in Dragon Country not being able to afford the treatment.

He never expected that with Jiang Fan's help, the research would be progressing so smoothly. If Jiang Fan's Chinese medicine anti-cancer drug, Long Dan Pill, could also succeed in trials, it would surely be a monumental achievement for Dragon Country's medical community.

Long Lao looked at Jiang Fan with great pride. His student always managed to surprise him.

At that moment, Long Lao suddenly had an idea and turned to Jiang Fan.

"Xiao Fan, I have a thought. After we successfully develop the anti-cancer drug, how about we discontinue research on Western medicine at the institute and focus on Chinese medicine? What do you think?"

"Teacher, that's a great idea. Dragon Country's traditional Chinese medicine is profound and vast. Many Chinese herbal remedies are far superior to Western medicine..." Jiang Fan agreed with a nod.

Long Lao also nodded in agreement.

In recent years, Western medicine had gained prominence, leading to the loss of many traditional Chinese medicine formulas. If they could revive Chinese medicine, it would be a significant preservation of their ancestral heritage.

At that moment, Jiang Fan's mind suddenly echoed with the system's voice.

[System]: "Mission released: Assist the medical research institute in successfully developing the anti-cancer drug Long Dan Pill. Reward: Two Chinese medicine formulas."

Jiang Fan, hearing the system's first-ever cycle mission, was puzzled and asked, "System, what is a cycle mission?"

[System]: "A cycle mission is an ongoing mission that repeats itself."

Three lines of black sweat appeared on Jiang Fan's forehead. That explanation was as good as saying nothing.

The system, sensing Jiang Fan's confusion, continued with a more detailed explanation.

[System]: "For example, assisting the medical research institute in developing the Long Dan Pill. The system will reward you with two Chinese medicine formulas. The next time you assist the institute in developing these formulas, the system will reward you with four formulas. This cycle continues until all the formulas are rewarded."

Jiang Fan now understood and asked, "If I just provide the formulas and others in the research institute do the development, does that count as completing the mission?"

[System]: "As long as you provide the formulas and the research institute successfully develops them, the mission is considered complete."

Jiang Fan felt reassured.

At that moment, Long Lao furrowed his brows and said, "Xiao Fan, it's a shame that we don't have the formulas yet."

Jiang Fan smiled mysteriously. The timing of the system's mission release was truly perfect.

"Teacher, I will take care of the formulas for Chinese medicine from now on."

"You? You have Chinese medicine formulas?" Long Lao asked in surprise.

"Yes. I mentioned earlier that the Long Dan Pill is from an ancient medical book. In fact, there are many other formulas in that book, but for now, I need to prove that the Long Dan Pill is effective first..." Jiang Fan replied.

Upon hearing this, Long Lao's face lit up with joy.

Based on the current experimental results, the Long Dan Pill showed great promise. If Jiang Fan was correct and could prove that the formulas from the ancient medical book were valid, then the medical research institute would never be short of formulas again.
