After writing down the list of required medicinal ingredients, the young master immediately a.s.signed some teenagers the task of finding the ingredients he needed.
The kids were efficient in using the Internet; in less than an hour, they had managed to gather all the required ingredients needed for the Bugu Dan. Now he only needed the pharmacy to deliver the goods. The ingredients for the Baidu Dan were slightly more difficult to find, especially considering that there were over a hundred poisons that were needed. Currently 30-40% of the poisons had been found. The rest of the poisons were scattered around the world which made acquisition harder, but he believed he would receive news about them soon. ScU4Vf
Gong Lizhen ended the call, relieved by how quickly all the ingredients had been gathered and were just waiting to be delivered. His eyes brightened as he thought about his school's chemical laboratory. He hadn't expected for this world's refining tools to be so advanced; there were high-pressure boilers that could raise the temperature to over a thousand degrees, liquid ammonia bottles that were able to lower the temperature to below freezing point, and there was no need to worry about purifying substances because there was countless types of equipment that could be used. With these tools, he would be able to refine at least a few hundred pills each day. His speed would increase as his familiarity with the equipment increased.
Since the Bugu Dan's effects would last for a month or two, the young master would thus only need to eat four to five pills a year since his cultivation of "Reverse Spirits" would extend the time limit of the Bugu Dan's effects by a month. The reason why he was refining so many Bugu Dans was because he was preparing them for the Gong family. He might not need as many, but that wasn't to say his loved ones didn't need them. As for the Baidu Dan? It was useless for those who did not have internal force since it was the equivalent to intestinal poison. Gong Lizhen didn't dare to risk his family with the Baidu Dans.
Because they knew about Gong Xiangyi's s.p.a.ce ability, food was being bought en ma.s.se. With her support, Gong father, Song Big Brother and others would not have to worry about hunger too much. Moreover, the Bugu Dan tasted bitter and was hard to swallow; it was in no way comparable to the fresh food collected by Gong Xiangyi. However, the world was changing, and because he could refine the Bugu Dans now, he would. He would always be prepared. The Dans would be used in case Gong Xiangyi was no longer on good terms with them, or if she met an accident.
Gong Lizhen didn't care whether Gong Xiangyi had an accident or not, his mood would forever be unchanging when it came to matters concerning his sister. At first he had held some expectations but whenever he attempted to deepen their relations.h.i.+p, he was met with hostility from the girl. Those expectations disappeared immediately, and now Gong Xiangyi would forever be a stranger to him. v9cHgJ
After preparing the medicinal ingredients, Gong Lizhen went downstairs to have breakfast. The other people in the Gong family had already gone to work. There were still ten months before the apocalypse, everybody was utilising this period of time to complete all the preparations.
Gong Lizhen's mood was poor as he sat at the empty table. He finally had a happy family and he could explore the colorful world. The sun and the hustle and bustle of the city would disappear when the apocalypse begun. Was G.o.d that desperate to take life away?
His mood was no longer depressing as he thought about G.o.d. If G.o.d truly wanted to take life away, then he would do all he could to fight against G.o.d. He had already died once, what else was there to fear? With his mind made up, Gong Lizhen discarded the distracting thoughts and began enjoying the hearty breakfast in front of him. The delicacies that could be eaten now should be enjoyed; he wouldn't let matters that would occur in the future affect his appet.i.te.
Gong Lizhen took his bag and went to school when he had finished eating. Once he arrived at the school, he made his way to the princ.i.p.al's office so he could gain permission to use the senior laboratory that was usually reserved for the university's usage. VaqFfo
Facing Gong Lizhen, the princ.i.p.al did not dare to refuse the request. He gave him the key to the laboratory without asking anything.

Sincerely thanking the princ.i.p.al, Gong Lizhen skipped cla.s.s to utilise the laboratory. With the key, access to the laboratory was un.o.bstructed. He began memorising the functions of the various equipment he would be using. He then familiarised himself with the operation methods. Once he was confident in his ability to use the equipment, he picked up the medicinal ingredients that needed to be refined, and put it aside. He had called the pharmacy earlier to have them send the bought ingredients directly to A affiliated secondary school.
