Chapter 457: No Success
Chapter 457: Chapter 457: No Success
Watching the emotionally charged Elder Yu, everyone’s face was a picture of astonishment.
"Elder Yu, you couldn’t really be that disturbed, could you?"
"You say it was successful? What was successful?"
"Could it be that another one of your projects was successful??"
...
All stopped what they were doing and looked at Elder Yu with confusion.
Everyone was guessing what Elder Yu could have succeeded at, and some even thought of other projects, but no one linked it with the Blood Coagulation Ointment.
Because the Blood Coagulation Ointment project was something everyone had researched together and had completely given up on after the final experiment failed today.
No one believed that a project that had been abandoned could still succeed.
Elder Yu’s eyes were red as he scanned the crowd, struggling to suppress his excited emotions as he said, "The Blood Coagulation Ointment was successful!"
"What?"
"Elder Yu, what kind of joke are you making? How could the Blood Coagulation Ointment, which so many of us have researched for such a long time without success, possibly be successful?"
"Elder Yu, are you maybe too tired recently? Why not rest a bit before you go back to work?"
...
People spoke over each other, and even at this point, no one was willing to believe that the production of Blood Coagulation Ointment had been a success.
Seeing the reactions of the others, Elder Yu became anxious, quickly raising the arm he had just cut with a knife, and said excitedly, "Can’t you all see? The wound on my arm has stopped bleeding."
Upon hearing his words, everyone finally turned their eyes to Elder Yu’s arm.
On Elder Yu’s arm was a dark brown paste, but the bleeding had completely stopped.
It wasn’t until this moment that everyone finally realized that it wasn’t Elder Yu who was insane, but that he had indeed successfully developed the Blood Coagulation Ointment.
"How is this possible? Hadn’t we already experimented with all possible solutions? How could there be another one?"
The incredulous face of the chief, Lao Yuan, was evident, despite the experimental results being right before his eyes, he still found it hard to believe.
Lao Yuan immediately grabbed a surgical knife from the nearby experiment table and made a decisive cut on his arm, his flesh instantly turned inside out, and blood began to gush out as if it were free.
Lao Yuan shouted, "Quick, quick, quick, Elder Yu, apply the Blood Coagulation Ointment to my wound."
Only at this moment did everyone realize that Lao Yuan had somehow cut his own arm, and they were instantly stunned.
Elder Yu hurriedly applied the rest of the Blood Coagulation Ointment to Lao Yuan’s wound.
Suddenly, everyone’s gaze was fixed on Lao Yuan’s wound, and in their astonishment, the blood that was furiously spilling out began to slow down.
Within just two minutes, Lao Yuan’s wound completely stopped bleeding and a thick scab had formed over it.
There was a deadly silence at the scene, and everyone was stunned by this astonishing sight.
Until someone let out an exclamation, "Is this really the effect of the Blood Coagulation Ointment? Isn’t this too exaggerated?"
"Hahaha..."
Lao Yuan could no longer hold back, and burst into triumphant laughter, tears streaming down his face as he choked out, "It’s successful! We’ve actually succeeded!"
He tightly grasped Elder Yu’s hand and said emotionally, "Elder Yu, thank you for your perseverance, which made our years-long project a success. I shall commend you to the Great Elder!"
"Elder Yu, well done, if it wasn’t for your refusal to give up, we would have missed out on such a miraculous medicine as the Blood Coagulation Ointment."
"Elder Yu, from now on, I will never again call you stubborn; I will be the stubborn one of our research base!"
...
Other people chimed in one after another, every face beamed with excitement, all smiling very happily.
The reason they were willing to spend their lives researching here was precisely to alleviate the suffering of Shen Zhou’s warriors through their own efforts, wasn’t it?
How many warriors’ lives could the successful development of the Blood Coagulation Ointment save?
They had already witnessed the miraculous efficacy of the Blood Coagulation Ointment firsthand; once mass-produced, it would undoubtedly be a historical, revolutionary medicine.
At that moment, an Old Divine Doctor suddenly asked, "By the way, we’ve already gone through all viable solutions and they’ve all failed. Elder Yu, how did you manage to succeed?"
Upon hearing his words, everyone’s gaze fell on Elder Yu, which indeed was what they were all very curious about.
Elder Yu’s excitement had mostly subsided, and he replied with a wry smile and a shake of his head, "The credit for Blood Coagulation Ointment has nothing to do with me; I simply followed the sequence in which that young man arranged the medicinal ingredients and remade the ointment. I didn’t expect it to actually succeed."
When they heard this explanation, everyone was stunned.
They naturally understood that Elder Yu wasn’t hiding anything—if he wanted to, he could have just claimed the credit for himself, couldn’t he?
After Lao Yuan learned the truth, he felt exceedingly ashamed, his face turning flush with embarrassment, and he spoke with great self-reproach, "I was narrow-minded. I never expected that young man to actually understand Hua Tuo’s ancient prescription."
"He only needed one glance at the prescription to identify the issues in our failed attempts, which clearly shows his medical skill is far beyond ours..."
As he spoke, Lao Yuan’s eyes grew brighter and he excitedly continued, "We have many ancient prescriptions that we haven’t deciphered yet. If he could join us, our work would certainly be more efficient!"
Upon hearing his words, others also snapped out of their daze.
"Lao Yuan is right, if we could get him to join us, it would be a hugely beneficial thing for all of Shen Zhou!"
"Lao Yuan, let’s go see the Great Elder now and ask him to assign that young man to our team."
"Aren’t you thinking a bit too much? Not to mention that we’ve already offended him just now, based on the mere fact that he spotted the flaw in our approach with one look, do you think he is an ordinary person? If he were, how could he possibly be here with the Great Elder?"
There were rational minds among them, and at these words, everyone fell silent again.
This person spoke in a serious tone, "I believe we should invite him to assist us, but we must not force him. If such a person could serve Shen Zhou, it would indeed be fortunate for Shen Zhou."
Lao Yuan sighed and said, "I was too presumptuous. With such capability and such a young age, to make him join us would truly be too much."
Elder Yu then said, "Let’s not get ahead of ourselves with wild thoughts. In my opinion, we should continue with the subsequent research on Blood Coagulation Ointment, after all, we still haven’t clarified if there are any side effects."
Everyone nodded in agreement, setting aside their work to join Elder Yu in making another batch of Blood Coagulation Ointment.
An Old Divine Doctor said, "I have an allergic constitution; let me test it this time to see if the Blood Coagulation Ointment causes an allergic reaction on me."
With that, he followed the example set by Elder Yu and Lao Yuan, taking a knife and cutting his arm. Blood immediately gushed out.
Elder Yu hurriedly applied the freshly made Blood Coagulation Ointment to the Old Divine Doctor’s wound, but soon, all the Old Divine Doctors started panicking because the bleeding simply wouldn’t stop.
To be precise, it wasn’t that there was no effect, but the blood-coagulating effectiveness of this batch of Blood Coagulation Ointment was very weak.
As the Old Divine Doctor’s complexion grew paler and paler, Lao Yuan shouted in urgency, "Quickly attend to Lao Huang’s wound with emergency treatment! If we don’t, he’ll die from excessive blood loss."
"No good! Lao Huang’s heart has stopped!"
"Hurry, hurry up and resuscitate Lao Huang!"
For a moment, the entire research base sprang into frantic action.
But soon, the emergency response ended, for they were at a loss with Lao Huang’s condition.
Within the large research base, a deathly silence ensued, sorrow apparent on every face.
They were all Old Divine Doctors who had retired from the Battle Domain; any one of them considered a leading expert in the medical field on the outside. Yet at this moment, so many were unable to save their colleague.
"How about asking that young man to give it a try?"
Just then, Elder Yu suddenly spoke up.
Instantaneously, everyone’s gaze landed on him, and Lao Yuan’s eyes lit up as he turned and dashed towards the Great Elder’s office.
