The Highest Bounty

Speed enhancers were also a kind of gene enhancing medicine. Unlike the White Rhinoceros Enhancer, which strengthens the power gene, it strengthens the speed gene. The gene enhancing medicines had mostly the same refining process, and the only differences were in the details.

Gu Ding had used the microscopic instrument to work on the refinement of the White Rhinoceros Enhancer once. Now, it was the second time he was refining with it, which obviously made it a lot easier. It took him less than two minutes to find the gene chain he needed from the material, and although he was still much slower than Sa Ze, it was already considered a normal speed.

Many of the onlooking pharmacologists were a little surprised to see Gu Ding’s refining speed. After all, this should only be the second time Gu Ding was using the microscopic instrument, whereas ordinary people would only get familiar with it after using it at least six to seven times.

As for Sa Ze, his refining speed was frightening. He had already completed the extraction and had begun the distillation process. His movements flowed like water and you could not pinpoint any flaws in his actions. The pharmacologists who were watching praised him one after another.

However, Gu Ding and Sa Ze both paid full attention to the medicinal materials in front of their eyes, ignored the thoughts of the people around them. They steadily processed the materials at hand at their own pace.

In less than eight minutes, the medicine in Sa Ze’s hand was complete, and he began using a special modulation method to shake the fusion cup from side to side. The plethora of different colored materials in the cup soon began to fuse quickly and turned milky white in front of everyone’s eyes.

“It’s perfect quality!” Came a cry from the crowd.

Sa Ze’s first bottle of medicine was refined to perfect quality. This doubled the pressure on the many pharmacologists in Skyriver Sector. If Gu Ding lost, it meant that the entire Skyriver Sector had lost.

Meanwhile, Gu Ding did not seem to realize what was happening outside his world. His refining speed was still very steady as he reached the comparison stage.

In reality, different pharmacologists had similar refining processes for the same prescription with only very slight differences between them. However, Gu Ding’s prescription from Neptune had three very different comparison orders. One of the most difficult steps required one to continuously add three different extraction materials within three seconds of each other. This sort of comparison order had a high probability of achieving a perfect quality result.

Three different extraction materials were dripped in succession within three seconds of each other, which sounded easy, but this operation was, in fact, akin to defying the natural order. This was because the mixture ratio of the three different materials could not have even the slightest deviation. Not only that, the mixture ratio also needed to take into account the amount of the other eleven materials already inside and could not just be arbitrarily added until complete.

Nevertheless, Gu Ding felt that he should try it out. The other two comparison orders were not that challenging. After making his decision, Gu Ding simulated the conversion process in his mind and concluded that he should be able to do it. Then, he began working.

A variety of medicinal materials were so constantly added by Gu Ding that even Sa Ze eventually stopped refining the second bottle of medicine. Instead, his eyes remained fixed on Gu Ding. He wanted to see Gu Ding’s refining progress.

Seeing that Gu Ding had started to compare the medicinal materials, he was also somewhat expectant as the speed enhancer had three kinds of comparison orders for the comparison round. This was already an open secret of the Hermean Alliance; amongst them, one was a sorting order in which he tried many times before but had not ever succeeded in completing. Even his teacher, Men Ze had said that only a A-level genetic pharmacologist who had refined tens of thousands of medicines could successfully do so.

Could he do it?

The questions in Sa Ze’s heart were quickly answered when he saw the four fingers of Gu Ding’s right hand pick up three tubes of medicinal materials at the same time. With the slight movement of his fingers, the three medicines were continuously added. The entire process did not even take two seconds.

Sa Ze stared intently at the bottle of medicine in Gu Ding’s hand that had not yet been completed, waiting patiently for the final result. For that level of continuous dripping, he could not be quite sure whether Gu Ding’s rations were right and thus, could only wait for the final modulation result to come out.

Gu Ding’s comparison was completed quickly. He picked up the fusion cup with two fingers as the corner of his mouth finally opened. He flicked the cup with the index finger of his other hand, and the color of the solvent in the fusion cup immediately began to change dramatically.

A few moments later, the fusion cup became milky.

“It’s a perfect quality result again!” The crowd on the sidelines exclaimed.

“He did it!” Sa Ze stared at the fusion cup in Gu Ding’s hand, muttering as if he were talking to himself.

After pouring the medicine in the fusion cup into the medicine bottle and then sealing it, Gu Ding ignored the others and started making the second bottle of medicine.

Sa Ze also recovered from his shock and continued to make the second bottle of medicine.

The onlooking crowd was already raging. Gu Ding refining a perfect quality medicine for the second time showed that he was not relying on luck but real skll. His comparison order had also been seen by many of the pharmacologists there. There were even two B-level pharmacologists who were not quite sure whether they would even be able to do the kind of operation Gu Ding had just performed.

“This genius-level talent… just whose disciple is he?” Many people started to grow curious.

“Is this young genius really of our Skyriver Sector? Could it be that he is a hidden disciple of Master Modican?”

All sorts of questions started popping up, but no one could answer any of them.

“Looking at his serial number, he seems to be a newcomer that had only just arrived in Medical King Valley a few days ago. Based on his serial number, it should be possible to find the person who invited him into Medicine King Valley,” someone suggested suddenly.

After entering the Medicine King Valley, a lot of personal information remained completely undisclosed by default. Only a serial number and the identity corresponding to the number could be checked to ascertain whether the person was a pharmacologist or a temporary resident. Furthermore, pharmacologists with slightly higher authority could find the referrer of a person via their number.

A B-level pharmacologist secretly checked Gu Ding’s serial number and saw that the introductory column read: [Jointly recommended by Modican and Parma.]

“This kid really does have something to do with Master Modican.”

Some pharmacologists with insufficient authority also found Gu Ding’s referrer at some cost. After seeing the referrer, many people also began to suspect that Gu Ding was a disciple of Modican.

By now, the videos of the White Rhinoceros Enhancer previously refined by Gu Ding had also been seen by many pharmacologists in Medicine King Valley, including even Modican himself.

There were a total of three videos of Gu Ding refining the White Rhinoceros Enhancers, which were taken by three onlookers from different angles. One of the videos was titled, “Young Genius Refines the Perfect White Rhinoceros Enhancer.”

Modican himself was attracted by the name. The White Rhinoceros Enhancer prescription was flawed, so even an A-level pharmacologist would find it impossible to make a perfect quality prescription. Although he initially thought the name of this video was just a gimmick, he decided to take a look anyway since he was idle.

When he saw Gu Ding in the video, Modican did not react. Because Parma had only told her teacher Gu Ding’s name and sent a video with a rear view of Gu Ding refining, Modican had never seen Gu Ding’s appearance before. Therefore, he only knew that there was a young genius around, but not what he looked like.

After watching the video, Modican felt slightly sluggish. “This young man even knows the complete prescription of the White Rhinoceros Enhancer? Although his refining speed is slow, it was obviously his first time operating a microscopic instrument. Nevertheless, it was very steady, probably surpassing even Parma in terms of psychological strength. Who is this disciple?”

With some doubt in his head, Modican gave the video a like. Modican himself was a madman, and when he saw something he enjoyed in Medicine King Valley, he would like it. The video department in Medicine King Valley would then automatically forward the recommendation, notifying others that a person had liked it.

Since Modican liked it, many more pharmacologists soon came to watch the video. There were even some A-level pharmacologists who, after watching it, silently gave it a like…

Gu Ding did not know it but he had suddenly become famous…
