69 Medicine Reviving the Dead (1/2)

Dragonblood flower 35 milliliters, waterjade powder 17 grams, losoto solution 96 milliliters, catalytic cream 12 grams, spirit powder 15 grams, fluid ice 30 milliliters...

After modifications, a new and improved formula appeared before his eyes.

Aike was stunned to the point where he was speechless.

He did not believe this brat was capable of improving a finished formula. This was something that only a geneticist could accomplish. Even he could not do this.

He had never thought in a million years that Feng Lin would actually give a decent formula.

The original formula was modified with quite a bit of changes. There was also a new additional ingredient—30 milliliters of fluid ice.

This improved formula had certain logical medicinal properties that complemented each other.

Aike looked at the medicinal ingredients and their respective properties to estimate the final medicinal effects; however, he was unable to see any deficiencies.

He was instantly at a loss?

This brat actually provided an improved formula?

Was this what the idiom 'trying to steal a chicken but ending up losing the rice to lure it' meant? [TL note: it's an idiom meaning to try gaining an advantage but ending up worse off]

This was it!

He had originally planned to put the newbie in a difficult situation to knock him off his high horse.

However, he ended up providing an opportunity for the newbie to flaunt his ability.

...

Looking at this formula, Aike showed a face of disbelief. Feng Lin's expression was, however, as calm as water.

This formula had already reached the level of a high-grade potion; it was more medically sound than the original formula. This was something that Feng Lin had tested himself; thus, he was sure that no one would be able to find the flaws in this formula.

Team leader Aike's expression became grave. He ultimately retrieved his identity microchip and utilized the A.I. within the chip to estimate the effectiveness of the potion.

However, the results left him dissatisfied.

According to the A.I., there was a 52% chance that the medicinal effect was improved and the grade was raised to a high-grade potion level, 21% chance that the medicinal effect was unchanged, and 8% chance that the grade would decrease. Lastly, there was a 19% chance of unknown effect appearing.

Looking at this result theoretically, Feng Lin's formula improvement was a success, only the clinical trial was up next.

Seeing that Team leader Aike had purposefully caused trouble for the newbie, the entire R&D Department's members came to witness the chaos, but all they saw was his bite being worse than his bark.

Everyone was taken aback by the speechlessness of team leader Aike.

”What's going on? Team Leader has no reaction to the formula!”

”It can't be that the newbie actually developed a new formula, right?”

”Is that even possible?”

...

All of them discussed amongst themselves; most did not believe that Feng Lin had successfully improved the formula. However, witnessing Aike's grave expression, their chatter slowly died out until it became silent. They were not confident in what they were saying anymore.

Feng Lin was calmly observing without flustering.

After a long while, Aike finally lifted his head. He glared at Feng Lin, his expression like a knife piercing through Feng Lin's body as though he wanted to see through all his secrets.

Feng Lin looked at Aike without any hesitation, their gazes meeting directly.

Aike's eyes drooped a little, showing a hint of grudge. He then spoke fiercely, ”Don't celebrate so fast! The formula has not been tested yet; we will know once it passes the clinical trial!”

This line that called the validity of the formula into question created an uproar within the R&D Department.

What?

The formula can only be tested to know if it was effective or not? Even team leader Aike cannot find any deficiencies in the new formula?

Everyone was shocked.

R&D Department was the core technical department within the Giant Pharmaceutical Company.

He was a legitimate geneticist and was quite knowledgeable in the field of gene potions. If even Aike could not find issues with the formula, that meant the formula's success rate was very high.

How could this be possible?

Everyone in the room was evaluating Feng Lin. They could not help but be bewildered, where did this immortal come from?
