Chapter 152: Zhang Qin Feng\'s Ambition (3)
"How was the result today?" the guards asked after opening the door upon their return to the base. It seems he\'s not as bright as how he looks.
"It was another failure… The number of zombies was too much for us to handle with what we have." a soldier replied.
"Just rest. Leave it to us tomorrow. We\'ll eventually get there." the guard replied. After the eighteen of them came through the gate, it was shut tight to prevent outsiders or zombies from coming in.
"Feng, what do you like for dinner today?" Satella asked. She was seen holding a packet of instant noodles and canned meat.
"Come here, Satella. I have something to talk about with you." Zhang Qin Feng patted the seat beside him after he finished saying what he wanted. His word made Satella came to his side obediently with the food still in her hands.
"What you want to talk about?" Satella asked. She\'s curious because she hardly sees Zhang Qin Feng with such an expression.
"What do you think about giving the members of our Wind Base a powerup?" Zhang Qin Feng asked. So far down the road, the distribution of serums was not regularized. Once in a while, the survivors would find a few diluted serums in their hunt.
But they hardly use this serum on themselves because the improvement in their ability was too trivial for them to realize.
"Hmm… The number of serums you will be needing is going to be astronomical. Are you sure you can afford it?" Satella asked. She was not worried about how much he can afford but how long can he sustain the expenses.
"It depends. What\'s the cost if we wanted to strengthen the thirty soldiers we have?" asked Zhang Qin Feng.
"Well… Based on the cost of the Substance and Matter Printer, we\'ll need 20 Antiviral Materials and a single Duranium Shard to hasten the maturity process. The end result was a diluted serum capable of strengthening our people by 0.1 points in Physical and Fitness." Satella explained.
With 30 soldiers for the base to be responsible for, that\'s a total of 300 vials of Strengthening-based serum. Based on the cost of 20 Antiviral Materials and a Duranium Shard each, that\'s a total of 6,000 Antiviral Materials and 300 shards.
\'Stein, what is the cost where the system was to handle this workload?\' he asked. From his understanding and experience, all it took from the system was 10 Antiviral Materials to craft a pure Grade-H version of the serum.
[Toot…]
-
[The system would only need 150 vials of serum to achieve the same estimated results from the individual called Satella. Furthermore, as the non-diluted version of serum would work better than expected, the system can guarantee a 99% success rate for an increment of 1 point in Physical and Fitness Status after injection]
-
[The rebound from taking ten doses of the serum would also be lessened by half because the non-diluted version of serum had lesser side effects]
-
[Projected cost would be 1,500 Antiviral Materials. No Duranium Shard is required during the crafting procedure. Ten minutes is needed to craft [ONE] vial of serum. The system will take 25 hours to complete the crafting of 150 vials of Grade-H Strengthening Serum]
-
[Would the user like to proceed?]
-
[Toot… Antiviral Material in Dimensional Storage is 4,955 units. Estimated impure Antiviral Material available in the Wind Base\'s Warehouse is 5,500]
Zhang Qin Feng was quiet as he studies the number\'s report from Stein. The difference was quite significant. Furthermore, all he need was a day of wait for the Strengthening Serum to be completed.
"Feng?" Satella nudged him gently on his shoulder.
\'Go ahead with the production. Make an equal number of Concentration Boost Serum as well. Keep me updated with the numbers.\' Zhang Qin Feng communicates with Stein mentally before he turned his attention to Satella.
"Satella," he called her name using the same lovely, attentive tone he always has.
"En." Satella nodded. Her behavior was no different from a puppy waiting for Zhang Qin Feng\'s instruction.
"Tell Valerian to set the machine to produce some Decrystalization Serum. Get Victor and Marvin to our place. I have something to discuss with them while you\'re preparing for dinner, alright?" Zhang Qin Feng pinches her cheek gently while smiling at her.
"Alright! I\'ll go and…"
"We\'re here, boss." both Marvin and Victor were standing by the door. They were curious as to why it took Satella so long to order them.
"You two will see what the boss needs. I\'ll get the dinner ready," said Satella as she runs out of the living room with a blushed cheek.
Alright. Both of you, come here. I have something for both of you to do. Victor, you\'re our mechanical specialist. I want to know how fast can you come out with something I\'m going to ask. This is going to be a big one." Zhang Qin Feng said.
"Boss, just give me the word. This one will work day and night to make it happen. If you say you want it to be done in a day, I\'ll finish it in half a day." Victor said.
"Furthermore, I have Marvin here helping me. We can move both of our printers together to increase the output. Worst come to worst, we\'ll get the equipment downstairs and rely on the Reprinter Unit. As long it was not for a food product, the Reprinter Unit will be a great help to our cause." he added.
"Good. This is what I want you two to come out with. The video clip quality is not that good, so bear with it." Zhang Qin Feng took his smartphone out and pressed the play button to a short 90 seconds video.
The one-and-a-half-minute video was an advertisement for a rocket launcher. But from the quality of the video, it seems to be at least a year or two years old.
"Boss… You want us to create something like this for the vanguards?" Marvin said. All it took was a quick look at the video to give him an idea of what to do. It seems that Victor had the same expression on him as well.
"Yes. Can you two get it done in a week?" Zhang Qin Feng asked.
"That\'s too long, boss. Two days?"
