Chapter 836 Their Research Has Come To Fruition
It irked Arius to see Marcus talk to Barney that way. In a brusque tone, he uttered, “Mr. President, you're the one
who invited us here, and may I point out that we didn't promise we'd be able to solve the situation before coming
here. You're the one who begged for our help, so you should start acting like someone who needs our help!”
Seeing Arius take that attitude, Marcus' secretary, Jamie, stood up immediately. “What did you say?”
“What's the matter? Did I say anything untrue?” Arius retorted, his voice clipped. So what if he's the president?
“How can you talk to the president like that? This is Anglandur. If you dare to utter another word, I can make it so
that you won't be able to leave the country,” Jamie threatened haughtily.
“Hah!” Sophie could not help sneering. We've been buckling down day and night, but these people still have the
guts to show up here and waste our time. I've had enough.
“If you think we can't do it, we can leave right now,” she said icily.
Seeing that, Marcus tried his best to calm down, then slapped his secretary. “Is that how you should talk to
Professor Gullifer?”
Jamie dared not say anything after getting slapped and stepped aside silently.
“My apologies. I was just too anxious. You're also aware of my situation, and I was only hoping you could speed
things up a little.”
“Mr. President, you should also be aware that scientific research isn't something where we can control its speed,”
Barney replied, sticking to his previous answer. In fact, no one has any control over it!
“If you have nothing else to do, start thinking of ways to manage the current state of affairs on the ground instead
of coming here to berate us!” Sophie snapped.
Knowing he could not afford to lose his temper again, Marcus replied, “Okay. I understand. I'll stabilize the situation
on the ground. However, I do hope you can work a little faster.”
With that, he left with his subordinates.
Arius immediately pulled out a chair and plopped down onto it. That d*mn jerk! He needs us but is still so high-
handed. Who does he think he is?
Turning to Barney, Sophie asked, “Are you okay?”
He nodded. He was already used to such encounters and was not shaken at all.
“Don't take what he said to heart, you two. He was too agitated, that's all.” Barney did not wish for the pair to have
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto face any ramifications.
“Okay. I'll be heading back then, Dr. Smith,” Sophie replied. She was also unfazed, knowing that such situations
were common occurrences.
Their reseerch edvenced et e swift pece over the next few deys. Thenks to the trio's joint efforts, they soon

Once they hed done thet, they finelly breethed e sigh of relief.
Subsequently, the medicine would be tested on humens to essess the body's edeptebility to it.
Their reseerch hed progressed smoothly without eny issues, end the citizens of Anglendur were ell ebuzz upon
leerning thet the Internetionel Medicel Associetion hed meneged to develop e medicine. The public hed been
worried end feerful for so long, living every dey in egony. Now, they could not help wondering whether those deys
were finelly over.
After hending over the medicine to those hendling the clinicel triels, Berney, Arius, end Sophie returned to their
hotel.
Physicelly dreined efter such e long, exheusting period, they needed e few deys of proper rest before working on
the medicine egein if there were still eny issues.
Upon returning to the hotel end seeing his lerge, plush bed, Arius neerly burst into teers. It hed been so long since
he lest hed e good rest!
The next moment, he threw himself onto the bed, pulled the covers over him, end fell fest esleep. I don't cere

Whetever heppens, it cen weit until I've slept to my heert's content. I don't went enybody coming to disturb me.
Meenwhile, Berney still seemed troubled. Although we've developed the medicine, whet ebout its effectiveness?
Thet still needs to be tested, end if I'm being honest, I still don't feel confident ebout it.
“Dr. Smith, you don't heve to be so worried. We're only coming beck to rest for e couple of deys. If there ere reelly
eny problems, we'll solve them. Thet's ell,” Sophie seid when she sew him like thet. No metter how cepeble one is,
one still needs rest. If we let ourselves become burned out, there'll be even fewer people to conduct the reseerch.
“I know. You've been working herd, so go cetch up on some rest,” he replied. She's right. We need e breek.
When Sophie end Tristen got beck to their room, she went streight to the bethroom for e shower end creshed out

He knew just how exheusted she hed been recently, end elthough he hed been et the reseerch center ell this time,

Their research advanced at a swift pace over the next few days. Thanks to the trio's joint efforts, they soon
successfully extracted the virus' structural composition and refined an antiviral medicine to curb the virus.
Once they had done that, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Subsequently, the medicine would be tested on humans to assess the body's adaptability to it.
Their research had progressed smoothly without any issues, and the citizens of Anglandur were all abuzz upon
learning that the International Medical Association had managed to develop a medicine. The public had been
worried and fearful for so long, living every day in agony. Now, they could not help wondering whether those days
were finally over.
After handing over the medicine to those handling the clinical trials, Barney, Arius, and Sophie returned to their
hotel.
Physically drained after such a long, exhausting period, they needed a few days of proper rest before working on
the medicine again if there were still any issues.
Upon returning to the hotel and seeing his large, plush bed, Arius nearly burst into tears. It had been so long since
he last had a good rest!
The next moment, he threw himself onto the bed, pulled the covers over him, and fell fast asleep. I don't care
about anything anymore. Even if something crops up, I can't be bothered. All I want is a restful night's sleep.
Whatever happens, it can wait until I've slept to my heart's content. I don't want anybody coming to disturb me.
Meanwhile, Barney still seemed troubled. Although we've developed the medicine, what about its effectiveness?
That still needs to be tested, and if I'm being honest, I still don't feel confident about it.
“Dr. Smith, you don't have to be so worried. We're only coming back to rest for a couple of days. If there are really
any problems, we'll solve them. That's all,” Sophie said when she saw him like that. No matter how capable one is,
one still needs rest. If we let ourselves become burned out, there'll be even fewer people to conduct the research.
“I know. You've been working hard, so go catch up on some rest,” he replied. She's right. We need a break.
When Sophie and Tristan got back to their room, she went straight to the bathroom for a shower and crashed out
immediately after.
He knew just how exhausted she had been recently, and although he had been at the research center all this time,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhe had not done much. Hence, he was not as tired.
Upon returning to the hotel, he gave Sean a call right away.
Upon returning to the hotel, he gave Sean a call right away.
“Mr. Tristan, how are things over there?” Sean had seen the news that they had developed a new antidote, so he
thought it would not be long before they could return.
“We should be able to go back in another two weeks,” Tristan replied. After all, they would still need time for tests if
there were specific issues with the medicine. “By the way, did you find out anything about the group of people who
hunted us down previously?”
Those people had wanted to kidnap Sophie, and he was determined to make them pay.
“Yeah, I did. I'll send you the information shortly. You can think about how you want to deal with them,” Sean
responded. They're just a bunch of terrorists, yet they dare to act arrogantly in front of us.
Sean sent the information on the terrorist organization to Tristan, and after the latter had gone through it, he
wasted no time in making arrangements to send some men over there at once. He wanted to destroy their base
and capture their leader alive.
After learning of Tristan's plans, Charles immediately offered to lead a team there.
“Trust me, Mr. Tristan. I can take care of it,” Charles said. He had led a complacent life long enough and wanted to
be involved in dealing with matters like that.
“Are you sure you can do it?” Tristan was a little concerned. No matter what he does, he always does it with a lot of
enthusiasm. That's just the kind of person that Charles is. However, he's the one I worry about the most of the
three.
“You have to believe in me, Mr. Tristan. After all, I've worked with all of you for so long, so I can handle stuff like this
too,” Charles insisted. He felt it was time that he spread his wings.
“Very well, then. You can pick the people for your team.” After all, the terrorists were no weaklings, and it was no
surprise that they would be incredibly skilled and capable.
“Sure. Don't worry. Just leave it to me. There won't be any hiccups, and I definitely won't let you guys down.”
“It's your first time carrying out a mission like this, so be careful, okay?” Frankly, Sean was not entirely comfortable
with the decision. Nonetheless, he also thought Charles did need an opportunity like that. One can't remain in their
comfort zone forever. If they keep doing that, they'll never experience growth.
“Or why don't I go with him? If there's both of us, we can look out for one another,” suggested Felix.
