Gao Wu: Work Hard? Who Would Work Hard After Being Immortal?

Gu Bai saw his face clearly and paused before he recalled the identity of the person.

This person was Huo Yuanzhong, whom he had met at Jiangbei College more than ten years ago. He was a friend of Hao Zhengyi's old master.

"Brother Huo? What's the matter so late?" Gu Bai asked. There was basically no intersection between the two of them. Gu Bai also wondered what he could ask him for?

"Yes, there is something!" Huo Yuanzhong nodded.

Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Gu Bai also knew that this was not the place to talk about things.

"Go in and talk, Brother Huo!" After parking the car next to the company, Gu Bai entered the building after scanning his identity.

The first floor was converted into a reception hall. Gu Bai invited Huo Yuanzhong to sit down, then brewed a pot of spiritual tea and placed it between the two of them, filling the teacup in front of him.

"Brother Huo, can you talk now?"

As he said that, Gu Bai controlled the death nightmare worm clone hidden in his clothes to move to his chest to prevent accidents. Although the probability of Huo Yuanzhong attacking Gu Bai was very small, Gu Bai would generally be on guard against unfamiliar or strange people.

Huo Yuanzhong didn't keep the secret and said, "It's like this, I want to invite you, Professor Gu, to join our [Xinghuo] pharmaceutical research group!"

Gu Bai was stunned when he heard this. I just want to live a peaceful life, why would someone come to me and ask me to join?

Gu Bai stood up and walked to the main entrance of the hall, keeping a relatively safe distance from him, and said helplessly: "Brother Huo, I have no grudges against you!" Seeing this, Huo Yuanzhong smiled, "Professor Gu, you make me look like I'm going to do something to you! I'm just here to invite you, not to threaten you!" Gu Bai waved his hand, "I just think the door is more ventilated and it's more comfortable to talk!" "Excuse me, Brother Huo, why do you want to harm me? Bah, why do you want me to join [Xinghuo]!" Huo Yuanzhong didn't beat around the bush and directly told the reason why he invited Gu Bai: "Because Professor Gu, you have a simple background and are the developer of the awakening potion, I want you to join the [Xinghuo] pharmaceutical research team!" "Also, let me formally introduce myself. I am a senior pharmacist, the president of the Jiangbei Pharmacist Association, and the director of the Pharmaceutical Research Institute of Jiangbei Longke Academy! I am also the person in charge of [Xinghuo] in several surrounding base cities!" After Huo Yuanzhong said this, Gu Bai understood why he knew that he was the maker of the awakening potion. With so many identities, he must have a lot of authority in the Pharmacist Association.

However, Gu Bai still politely rejected Huo Yuanzhong's invitation, "Brother Huo, I'm not the material to join [Xinghuo]! I'm a person who is more greedy for life and afraid of death, an egoist, not the kind of person with lofty beliefs!"

Gu Bai said this, and he didn't believe that Huo Yuanzhong still wanted him to join [Xinghuo].

Huo Yuanzhong picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip, "Professor Gu, it's not too late for you to consider it after I finish talking!"

Putting down the teacup, clearing his throat, and then said: "In essence, [Xinghuo] is also an interest organization, not for any lofty ideals. Of course, it is not denied that many people joined for their own ideals or because they were oppressed by aristocratic families before, but ideals are ideals, reality is reality, and in reality, power is everything!"

"Not many people will join [Xinghuo] because of their ideals. The heroes in the world are like crucian carp crossing the river, and the fish leaping over the dragon gate is just to become a dragon for themselves! ”

“About 70% of Longxia’s top powerhouses are from aristocratic families, and they also own at least 70% of Longxia’s wealth!”

“Among the top officials of Longxia and even the top officials of Longke Academy, 70% are from aristocratic families!”

“In fact, this is an inevitable development of a civilization or family!”

“Just like you, Professor Gu, if you have some strength, then marry and have children, after a few generations, you will also be a member of a small family, and the small family will gradually evolve into a blood-related aristocratic interest group!”

“So, aristocratic families will definitely exist,”

“They can be the pillars of Longxia, or they can be parasites of Longxia!”

“You should understand by now that [Xinghuo] is an organization composed of the remaining 30% of the people except the aristocratic families. It is not organized for some lofty ideals, but because the aristocratic families have too strong control over Longxia, so strong that if you don’t join them, you will be excluded and reduced to the margins! So you have to keep each other warm later!”

“[Xinghuo] can compete with the aristocratic families because the aristocratic families are not a monolithic entity…”

"What are you doing~"

Seeing Gu Bai's action, Huo Yuanzhong, who was talking halfway, was stunned and made a puzzled sound.

Gu Bai covered his ears with his hands, looking as if he didn't care about what was happening outside.

Gu Bai let go of his hands and smiled awkwardly: "Brother Huo, why don't you just get to the point? I'm afraid I'll be killed if you know too much. Try not to talk about things that have nothing to do with me!"

Huo Yuanzhong:...

Why do I feel that this kid is really afraid of death...

"It's okay, these are not important information, they are things that everyone in the organization knows!" Huo Yuanzhong waved his hand.

Gu Bai walked out of the hall after hearing this, found a chair outside and sat at the door, "Then Brother Huo, continue talking!"

As he said this, Gu Bai took out a spiritual plant fruit from the space ring and ate it.

Huo Yuanzhong: ...

After taking a deep breath, Huo Yuanzhong said, "Let's talk about something related to you. Beidoutang, the largest force in Longxia besides [Xinghuo], is also a part of [Xinghuo]. As the largest chamber of commerce in Longxia, Beidoutang can buy things that the official can't buy, and Beidoutang can also buy things that the official can't buy!"

"Becoming a member of [Xinghuo] also pays you a salary every month, and you can also get priority supply from Beidoutang!"

"If you have good talent, you can also get our resource supply to help you grow or research!"

"And now the [Xinghuo] high-level officials in Longxia are only in a cold war with the high-level officials of the aristocratic families in the official, so the identity of [Xinghuo] will not affect you!"

"What do you think after listening?"

At this point, Huo Yuanzhong looked at Gu Bai.

Gu Bai pondered for a while. It sounds like there is indeed some benefit. If a fight really breaks out in the future, it is actually very simple to change his identity and run away.

"What was the purpose of the previous attack on the base city and those things on the Internet?"

"For the people's hearts!"

"Oh?" Gu Bai was a little confused. People's hearts? I didn't expect to hear it in this era.

"That's why I asked you to come to us to study the potion. The fact that you can develop a refreshing potion already shows your ability! The difficulty of the cultural questions in the college entrance examination has increased a lot in recent years, just because of your refreshing potion! The effect of the refreshing potion on those with low cell strength is no less than that of the cell potion!"

Huo Yuanzhong's eyes were full of praise.

"Have you seen those orcs?"

Gu Bai nodded.

"Those are the exotic animal gene potions we are researching. They can integrate the genes of exotic animals into human cell genes! But there are some defects, such as half-animal transformation when using this ability, and even loss of sanity due to gene collapse in severe cases! Although the probability is very small, it still exists!"

"Although this potion can greatly improve strength in a short period of time, it will affect the fundamentals of the human body and reduce the talent for cultivation!"

"So we are recruiting people with lofty ideals throughout Longxia in order to research the perfect exotic animal gene potion. If it succeeds, then in the future, talent may not be predetermined! Then the people's hearts will be much more important at that time!"

"Joining us can also get guidance from many senior pharmacists, so that you can conduct potion research on a better platform! Are you interested?"

Gu Bai did not answer Huo Yuanzhong, but continued to ask.

"What is the ultimate goal of [Spark]?"
