Chapter 519: 518, Life Extending Potion _1
Langqi sized up Prime Minister Gordon in front of him, and snapped his fingers at the same time.
The service robot in the office received his instructions and immediately poured a fresh glass of juice from the Leko Bug and delivered it to Gordon.
“Prime Minister Gordon.” Langqi gestured invitingly, “This juice is squeezed from high-quality Leko bugs harvested from the Sunshine Insect Farm at 45° north latitude, would you like to try it?”
Gordon: “…”
He took a look at the glass handed over by the robot, which was filled with green, viscous liquid that had a pungent smell.
Gordon had seen Su Yu’s “travel” video and knew what a Leko bug looked like, his brain sent waves of signals of nausea.
However,
If He doesn’t drink it, will it upset the Skurus? Would it affect the Skurus’ liking for him?
After careful deliberation, Gordon made a decision against his better judgement — to drink!
He closed his eyes, and gulped down the bug juice like medicine without daring to taste it.
However, the bug juice that remained in his mouth still left him with a strong taste of protein coating his tongue, accompanied by a strong, odd and fishy smell, which almost made him vomit.
This reminded him of his younger days when he curiously tried the famous Swedish dish — canned herring, comparing the two, both are equally bad.
Nevertheless, Gordon managed to suppress the urge to vomit with his own tolerance, and squeezed a smile at Langqi, uglier than crying.
“How’s the taste?” Langqi asked curiously.
“Er… the taste is good, quite characteristic.” Gordon lied with a guilty conscience.
Moreover, he felt that all the lies he had told in his life, all added together, did not weigh as heavily on his conscience as this lie did.
“Glad you like it.” Langqi smiled.
He recognized that the human in front of him was obviously lying, but he didn’t care.
“Our previous collaborations were very enjoyable.” Langqi got to the point, “You have provided us with a lot of valuable information from Huaxia Nation, much of which has been very useful to us. To express our appreciation, we would like to give you this potion.”
With a wave of his hand, the service robot appeared again, holding up a potion the size of a cola bottle and walked towards Gordon.
The potion was deep red like blood, and there was a meatball in the center of the potion bottle that throbbed like a human heart, grotesquely.
“What is this?” Gordon took the potion, which throbbed continuously in his palm, almost slipping out of his hand.
Fortunately, he held on tight, and the potion did not escape his control.
“This is a life-extension potion.” Langqi replied bluntly, “The age limit for you humans is around 130 years, most people can’t make it past seventy or eighty. This potion can raise your age limit to 200 years, while restoring your physical function to the state of a 40-50 year old. This is a special medicine we developed specifically for you humans, and it has absolutely no side effects.”
Extend life!
Restoring physiological function?
Prime Minister Gordon’s eyes sparkled, his body and arms trembling unconsciously.
For him, a 78-year-old man at the pinnacle of power on Blue Star, it’s simply unimaginable what it means to have seventy more years of life and restored physical vitality!
If measured in terms of money, he would rather spend a hundred billion…no, a trillion dollars for it!
Humans are like this, the older they become, the less they want to die.
The opportunity is now in front of him, as long as he drinks this potion, he could live another 70 years!
But…
Gordon wasn’t overly swept away by excitement.
After all, the efficacy of the drug was only the Skuru’s side of the story, was the potion as miraculous as they claimed?
Could it be that the Skuru were just trying to trick him into drinking this potion with a purposely fabricated lie, and in reality, after drinking the potion, his thoughts would be completely controlled by the Skurus?
Just as this thought occurred to Gordon, Jennifer, standing behind him, smiled faintly,
“Don’t worry, Prime Minister Gordon, we are allies, we won’t do such despicable things as controlling an ally’s thoughts…and besides, if we really wanted to control you, whether you drink this potion or not would make no difference.”
This time she used “psychological suggestion” again, and almost instantly, Prime Minister Gordon completely agreed with her idea.
“Alright then, thank you very much for the potion. Can I drink it now?” Gordon was completely impatient.
“Of course, you can.” Jennifer gave a kind smile to Gordon.
In the aesthetic sense of the Skuru, Jennifer could be said to be a top-notch beauty.
However, to humans, all Skuru females look almost the same, and the green skin is a negative, so Gordon was not attracted by Jennifer at all.
Upon getting the permission, he pulled out the wooden stopper of the potion and drained it completely without hesitation, swallowing the throbbing meatball in the middle as well.
After the potion had gone down, Prime Minister Gordon felt a burning sensation in his chest, reminiscent of drinking boiling hot water.
Then this burning sensation spread to his entire body through his bloodstream from his stomach. From the tip of his hair to his toes, every place in his body was filled with this burning sensation, as if he was being rotated in a microwave oven.
Langqi and Jennifer exchanged glances.
They remained completely composed, silently observing the special changes within Gordon.
…
The burning sensation in Gordon lasted for 2 minutes.
Two minutes later, he felt his own flesh and blood being remolded, telomeres were produced in cells in large quantities, intracellular telomeres which had previously disappeared were repaired in a short period of time.
His body’s function also quickly recovered, and his brain became increasingly clear.
Another five minutes later, he felt completely rejuvenated!
Age spots completely retreated, muscles and skeleton which were nearly atrophied also regained their elasticity.
He stood up from the dog-shaped robot, looking at his own hands, arms and waist in disbelief.
He had truly regained his youthful vigor in a matter of minutes, it was simply unbelievable! Unbelievable!
“Prime Minister Gordon, how do you feel?” Langqi leaned back in the leather chair, looking at Gordon with a slight smile on his face.
“This is truly unbelievable, it’s too magical!” Prime Minister Gordon replied in a daze. This feeling was like dreaming, and he felt like he hadn’t woken up yet.
“Don’t be surprised.” Langqi casually waved his hand, “This is just a welcoming gift, as long as we continue to deepen our cooperation, when we take over Blue Star completely, we will hand over the chairmanship of the Blue Star United Government to you. By then, not to mention living to 200 years, even living to 500 years, 1000 years is not impossible.”
Now, Langqi and Emperor Raging Sun’s thinking has also changed a little.
If more and more God Level powerhouses appear on Blue Star, they might not be able to annihilate all humans.
Training a few puppet governments like Gordon seems to be a decent choice.
