Chapter 64: No Matter How Powerful You May Be, You’re Still Only An Individual

Modican did not have E-grade medicinal materials in his inventory. After dialing a number and giving some instructions, someone sent the materials over in less than five minutes. He only asked for three batches, yet they sent ten.

Gu Ding read the prescription that Neptune gave him, took the material, and began refining using the set of B-grade refining equipment he had just received.

Watching Gu Ding’s skillful movements, Modican nodded approvingly. “It seems like you have refined this kind of medicine before. You’re quite skillful.”

“I haven’t. This is my first time doing it. I just finished reading the prescription,” Gu Ding’s movements did not waver as he replied.

Modican was taken aback. He did not interrupt Gu Ding further because, under normal circumstances, it was a form of challenge for pharmacologists to refine a new medicine especially when they were doing it for the first time. There were no past experiences, hence the failure rate was extremely high. If Gu Ding had refined this sort of medicine before, Modican could simply say anything to interrupt him and it would not matter. However, this was his first time refining. He would not want his butting in to be the cause of Gu Ding’s failure in refining the medicine.

Go Ding’s refining speed was exceptionally fast. More than ten minutes later, he was done refining a bottle of medicine.

Staring at the faint green medicine in Gu Ding’s hands, Larry looked rather doubtful. He had not heard of any E-grade gene repair agent that had a color like this one. A standard quality E-grade gene repair agent would be aqua blue; good quality would be azure; excellent quality would be light blue. Whereas the legendary ultimate quality one would be green in color.

Beside them, Liliath asked in a slightly uncertain manner, “This can’t be the perfect E-grade quality gene repair agent, can it?”

“You’ve refined the perfect quality medicine the first try itself. Earlier, I’ve only watched you do it on videos. I can’t believe that it’s so much more interesting watching it on the spot.” Modican nodded pleasingly. He had also offered his evaluation, “There was not the slightest error in the entire refining process. You can even call it perfection. I heard Parma saying that your medicinal refinement skills are all self-taught. Are these techniques self-taught too?”

“Other than reading and graphic materials, I’ve also watched a lot of video materials.” Gu Ding nodded.

“I’ve also reviewed a lot of materials in the last few years. This also includes certain A-level pharmacologists’ competition videos. These are all internal materials shared within the circle. Initially, I planned to arrange and send them to Parma. I’ll transfer them to you first this time. Anthony has also informed me that you agreed to participate in the Newcomer’s Ranking Competition. It’s in more than two months. These will be useful for you.” As Modican said those words, he packed the materials and sent them to Gu Ding’s mailbox.

He handed the bottle of medicine over to Larry, saying, “Take this and use it.”

“This is a perfect quality one… I can’t afford this…” Although Larry found it hard to move his attention away from the bottle of medicine in Gu Ding’s hand, he did not stretch out his hands to take it.

“The medicinal material is supplied free of charge by Hermean Alliance. My refinement of it will be your reward for sending us here this time.” Gu Ding placed the medicine in Larry’s hands. “Besides, I still need to stay one to two days in Fengyuan. I’ll leave when I obtain an E-level Pharmacologist license. Didn’t you say that you’re familiar with this planet? Perfect. You can be our tour guide for the next few days.”

“Mm. That’s a deal then.” Larry took the medicine in his hands. Carefully, he took out a small box and wrapped it properly before placing it inside the inventory.

Hearing that Gu Ding wanted to take the test for an E-level pharmacologist certification, Modican said, “Gu Ding, I suggest that you skip the test for the E-level pharmacologist license and participate in the competition with your identity as an F-level pharmacologist. When the competition takes place, you’ll definitely stun a bunch of your competitors. I think the situation will be even more interesting then. As for the medicinal materials during this period, I’ll supply you with whatever you need.”

“That sounds good. Initially, I planned on taking the E-level pharmacologist test to obtain the free E-grade materials so I could do some practice.” Modican had solved this problem for him. Of course, there was no need for him to take the E-level pharmacologist test anymore.

“You can all stay here for the next few days. Hermean Alliance grants the right to asylum to every pharmacologist. Whether the other party is an Interstellar Pirate, Independent Alliance, Interstellar Hunter, or anything else, Hermean Alliance will offer asylum. The Federation Army will not do anything to you here.” Modican knew that Gu Ding had become a wanted fugitive. “I’ll stay here over the next few days and leave only after all of you have left to avoid further complications.”

“I need to make a trip back home first. I’ll come back again tomorrow morning.” Larry was in a hurry to get home so he could inject his brother with the gene repair agent.

“Larry, you can head back first if you have things to do. Since I don’t need to take the pharmacologist certification test anymore, there’s no need for me and Lili to linger too long on this planet. When Lili is done strolling the trading center tomorrow, you can come and pick us up and send us to the port in the morning in two days’ time. Then, we’ll leave Fengyuan on that day.” Gu Ding rearranged the itinerary.

After sending Larry away, Modican had asked someone to arrange a place for Gu Ding and Liliath to stay.

“I can’t believe that you actually hid it so well. Didn’t you tell me that you’re an F-level pharmacologist?” Liliath turned one circle around Gu Ding, sizing up Gu Ding all over again.

“I’m an F-level pharmacologist, that’s not a lie. I think it’ll be another three months before I can take an E-level certification test.” Gu Ding shrugged.

Lilianth thought very carefully. Gu Ding was right. She was the one who did not think too much about it from the start. She thought that it was already impressive for Gu Ding to earn an F-level pharmacologist certification at his age, yet what she did not expect was that she had underestimated Gu Ding from the start. Even so, she still drummed up her cheeks, asking, “Then why didn’t you tell me that you’re a genius in pharmacology?”

“Have you ever heard anyone call themselves a genius?” Gu Ding questioned her instead. “Besides, if I said so at the time, would you believe me?”

“I don’t care. In the future, you will oversee all the pharmacologists’ works. You get free materials. We don’t need to spend a cent on leveling up our genes next time. Using this gimmick to recruit members, I’m sure there will be a bunch of people lining up to join us.”

“More team members doesn’t mean things will be better. It’s enough to have me alone as the pharmacologist and it should suffice to have you as the gunner, but we also need some essential professions to fill up the gaps. For example, a chef, a mechanic, a bartender…”

“We can’t skimp on powerful main attackers. Apart from you, we still need one to two more powerful main attackers, at the very least. That’s how we can make a strong team.” Liliath had also offered her suggestion. Auxiliary professions were certainly important, but a team without main attackers would undoubtedly be weak. If they encountered a formidable enemy, the entire team might risk getting completely wiped out.

“Yeah. When we leave Fengyuan and get the spaceship repaired, we’ll need to recruit new comrades. The new route will not be one not filled with challenges that’s for sure.” Gu Ding was not naive at all. Kohld Blood’s words were still clearly embedded in his mind. “No matter how powerful you may be, you’re still only an individual.”

Even genius powerhouses like Kohld Blood had come to understand this. Naturally, Gu Ding would not arrogantly assume that he could walk his path alone.
