Chapter 630

#630. There is no worthy opponent.

Seven Dragon Group.

It is said to control all wealth.

In fact, seven large groups dominating the market in everything from finance to food manufacturing and services.

Of course, there were many other amazing conglomerates in this iron age.

Mass-produce items cheaply with production skills.

Deal with the waste with the Purification skill.

such as curing diseases with healing skills.

Depending on their level and skill, there were players who could do dozens of jobs for a tolerable company alone.

However, even such high-level players did not dare to compete head-on with Seven Dragon Corporation.

enormous wealth.

Organizing power as the Seven Dragons.

Even the influence of a criminal organization.

Confronting a group of seven dragons that had everything was like hitting a rock with an egg no matter what skill you had.

They mainly have two options.

One is to aim for a small niche market that is not even reached by the influence of the Seven Dragon Group.

or to cooperate.

After all, the Seven Dragons are overflowing with money.

I could have been a good enough partner or investor if I didn’t invade their own territory.

“Mmm.”

in that sense.

Chairman Rahula was quite fond of the Seven Dragons.

The reason he was able to become the chairman of a huge drug distribution company from an ordinary drug dealer was because of his partnership with Chilryonghoe.

nonetheless at this moment.

He couldn’t hide his embarrassment.

“That… Family Head Joao.”

“Doctor is enough.”

“Yes, Dr. João.”

A middle-aged man with green hair.

Looking at João, who is the general manager of the Divine League of Quetzalcoatl Corporation and also a renowned physician in this Iron Age, Rahula continued her words with difficulty.

“To be honest, the situation at our company is very difficult these days.”

“Is it because of the potion?”

“As you know, there are not one or two places that are aggressively increasing their market share by promoting potions.”

Originally, it was distributed in secret.

After the World Federation started in earnest.

Rahula sighed when he remembered the potion that had begun to spread like wildfire.

A potion that can instantly heal any wound is a dream drug.

I can’t sell it because I don’t have it.

There were not one or two drug distributors that were rapidly expanding their companies just by offering such potions as bait products.

On the other hand, his company is in bad shape.

Unlike other companies, they did not touch the distribution of potions, so they were losing more and more sales offices.

So Rahula looked at João and opened her mouth.

“I’m sorry to ask you this, but are there still no special measures in Quetzalcoatl?”

“…If there is no countermeasure, are you saying that Chairman Rahula wants to distribute the World Federation’s potion?”

“Chemm! How can you do that with the grace you have received so far?”

Seeing the smile on João’s face, Rahula cleared his throat and actively denied it.

How dangerous it was to join hands with the World Federation and jump into the distribution of potions while having a cooperative relationship with the green dragon clan.

Having worked with the Green Dragon clan since before the Iron Age, he knew it all too well.

“That’s good. I wondered what would happen if Chairman Rahula made the same decision as President Sadda.”

“I’m sorry if you treat me like such an ungrateful bastard!”

“Excuse me. I apologize.”

“There is no need to apologize. There are not one or two traitors like Saddah, so Dr. João deserves to be worried.”

Of course, not everyone was like Rahula.

Those with a short collaboration period.

Or, those who only knew the aspect of the Green Dragon Clan as a company switched to the World Federation after seeing the potion.

Although it was rare to find Sadda who was successful in receiving investment from the green dragon clan and actively helping the potion business.

“However, I would like you to know that our company will not be able to survive for long if Dr. Joao does not take additional measures.”

You can’t get into the potion business.

If this continues, the company will go bankrupt.

It’s a real quandary.

Close your eyes and ask for permission to distribute the potions or take other measures.

At the end of staring at Rahula, who was begging in the utmost formality but practically begging.

Joao laughed quietly.

“Take it easy. Even so, the head office came up with a solution to deal with the potion business.”

“Are you saying you came up with a solution?”

“Yes, it is because of ‘this’ that I came to see President Rahula.

“If this is…?”

click.

Before the puzzled Rahula.

Joao pulled out a vial.

And he continued with a meaningful smile.

“It is a new drug developed by the princess herself.”

“Oh oh! Are you talking about the Green Dragon Princess?”

Seeing the bottle of golden potion slithering, Rahula blushed.

Green Dragon Princess is the best in the world.

Although the position of the best healer in the world has been given to the divine lord, he is still unrivaled in handling poison and medicine.

If it was a new drug she made herself to counter the potion, it couldn’t have been an ordinary drug.

but right after that.

He couldn’t help but harden his smile.

“It’s called nectar.”

“…Did you say nectar?”

“yes.”

“Um, as far as I know, when it comes to nectar…”

“Don’t worry. The official name is Nectar β, which was developed based on nectar, but it is not a drug.”

“Is that so?”

“If possible, try taking it yourself.”

“Do you take it? I mean?”

“If you do, you will be able to know the effect of this new drug for sure.”

“Thank you for being considerate of my stomach, but I don’t have any particular sore spots…”

“It doesn’t matter. The more healthy people take this medicine, the more effective it is.”

“Is that so…”

The healthier you are, the surer the effect.

Rahula broke into a cold sweat at those words, which, rather than reassuring her, fueled her anxiety even more.

Poisoned South America in the past.

The culprit who turned Brazil into a country of drugs.

To him, who knew the legend of nectar, this beautiful golden potion felt more terrifying than any poison.

However, in front of Joang, the head of the prestigious family of the green dragon clan, he could not doubt and reject the medicine that the green dragon princess made himself.

Rahula finally closed her eyes and swallowed the nectar in one bite.

And…

my eyes are stained with gold.

A sense of ecstasy soars.

The feeling of happiness soars as if being held in the arms of an exquisite beauty.

…there was no work.

“…?”

I just feel like my stomach is getting hot.

João quietly asked him who was more than relieved at the situation where he felt no effect other than that.

“How are you feeling?”

“I know for sure that it’s not a drug…”

“If you don’t feel any effect, don’t worry. It is proof that Rahula is really healthy.”

“…Anyone who is not healthy can feel the effects?”

“At least more so than healthy people.”

“But you said earlier that the healthier you are, the better it works.”

“yes. The effect is great if you are healthy. If there is a problem in the body, the medicinal effect is concentrated in that area, and it can feel like the effect is great.”

The more I listen, the more I duck.

what the heck is this effect?

João said with a meaningful face to him who had an expression that he couldn’t even guess at all.

“Do you know that there is a panacea?”

* * *

“…are you sure?”

“It will take some more time to verify, but at least from what I’ve seen so far.”

“is that so.”

Leviathan.

Li Qingyu, the black-haired girl who was receiving a report from Youin on the top floor, smiled bitterly.

She knew that no matter how busy she was with Limon’s treatment, Maia would not be able to easily lose the pharmaceutical market.

That’s why I calmly accepted the news that Quetzalcoatl was releasing a new drug…

“You’re crazy, Maia.”

Li Qingyu repented.

He said he underestimated her too much.

Rather like a potion…

No, if you made a panacea that surpasses a potion, you would have admired it and finished it.

But Maia’s new nectar was nothing like medicine.

It was the worst drug that surpassed even the original that poisoned the entire South American continent in the distant past, and it was an extreme poison that would color the whole world.

“No, should I say it’s like you?”

Li Qingyu was sure.

As long as this drug is finished.

That the potion would pose no threat.

No, no one dared to destroy the stronghold built by the green dragon clan.

And that the reason Maia made this medicine in the first place was because of a man.

“I really don’t have anyone I can compete with.”

I thought that it would be more comfortable to deal with the Lord of the World Federation or the Sword Master.

Before being the princess of the Seven Dragons.

as a single woman.

Li Qingyu couldn’t help but sigh.

* * *

There is no panacea in the world.

It was a fact that anyone who knew anything about medicine would know.

Even the potion released by the World Federation this time could regenerate all wounds, but it was impossible to cure diseases such as cancer or the common cold.

“This drug prevents dementia. It has a great effect on beauty, and just taking it makes you healthy.”

So this moment.

Rahula couldn’t help but put on a strange expression.

It wasn’t just because João was talking like a drug dealer selling cheap medicine as a panacea.

Even though it’s not a panacea, it’s because I knew that there was a drug that had a similar effect to what he was talking about.

“…In short, it’s a restorative medicine, isn’t it?”

“Yes that’s right.”

“….”

Restorative medicine.

Not to get sick.

A medicine taken to replenish energy.

Rahula couldn’t hide her trembling as Joao said that the true value of this nectar was to make a healthy body healthier.

“Health supplements and tonics sell well, but can you really stand up to potions with only these?”

“Of course. This nectar has a decidedly different effect than ordinary restorative medicine.”

“What effect do you mean?”

Rahula was suspicious.

No matter how good the green dragon clan’s medicine was, it would be able to stand against the potion with just that.

Because I wasn’t sure.

But the moment he heard Joao’s words that continued.

He couldn’t help but doubt his ears.

“This Nectar β regenerates DNA telomeres.”

“…yes?”

“There is some degree of cell regeneration effect, but the key is to replenish exhausted DNA telomeres.”

“Wait a minute. Could that be…?”

“As you can guess.”

Rahula’s eyes twitched.

Even though he is not a doctor, he has lived selling medicine for decades.

It was because he, who had medical common sense as good as most specialists, could understand the terrifying meaning of João’s explanation at once.

Telomeres are the ends of DNA chromosomes.

It is a factor that determines the lifespan of cells by being lost little by little whenever cell division occurs.

The reason aging occurs in the first place is because all of those telomeres are lost, making it difficult for cells to divide further.

There is only one meaning that such telomeres can be artificially regenerated and replenished.

“Immortal youth.”

“…!”

“That is the effect of this nectar.”

If you take nectar regularly.

Of course, aging slows down.

Even ordinary humans can enjoy a lifespan of at least 200 to 300 years.

Rahula couldn’t help but put on an expression as if his eyes were about to pop out as he watched Joao speak with a smile.
