26: A top domestic professor's response: There is no cure for the poison of the corpse beetle!

"Yes!"

"She is the dean of the School of Biology, but she is also an expert specializing in toxin research, especially viruses and toxicity in ancient organisms. She once developed a vaccine for a virus from tens of thousands of years ago, and even medicines. She is the best in the country, perhaps she might have some methods."

The executive nodded firmly.

"Strange! Didn't she go abroad? Did she come back?" the director asked suspiciously.

Professor Bai was a renowned figure in the country.

Especially in the medical field, she had made great contributions to the medical community. In the country, no one could compare to Professor Bai when it came to detoxification.

Originally, she held a very important position in the country, but in order to better serve humanity, she resigned from her position as dean, went abroad for further studies, and found a highly prestigious professor to research antidotes together.

The antidote that was popular on the market before was her masterpiece.

When did she come back?

"Director, not only is she back, but she is also in this city."

The executive continued.

"Ah? She's in this city?" The director was pleasantly surprised.

"Not only that, the most prestigious professor she researched viruses with seems to have come along as well. Now that they have received our call, they are on their way here. Perhaps once they arrive, they will be able to find a way to save Reba."

When the executive said this, his tone was full of excitement.

The director and the other executives were extremely excited at this moment. Not only was Professor Bai here, but that very powerful detoxification expert had also come?

These were experts in detoxification; perhaps there was still a chance to save Reba.

Thinking of this, their hearts could be somewhat at ease for the moment.

Now they were all waiting for Professor Bai's arrival.

...

On the other side, inside the School of Biology.

Professor Han saw the bullet comments flashing in the Live Stream Room, and his eyes lit up.

Yes! He remembered.

"I remember now. No wonder I felt the term 'Corpse Beetle' was so familiar; I have heard of this thing before."

Professor Han slapped his forehead, as if he had just remembered, and exclaimed.

"Teacher? What are you talking about? Where did you hear it?"

Xiao Song looked at him in confusion.

"That was when Professor Wang from the Archaeology Academy told me about the Corpse Beetle species. This is a creature that only exists in the Ancient Tomb. This thing cannot be seen outside. Back then, the Archaeological Team from the Archaeology Academy suffered quite a lot; it is said that they lost quite a few members to the Corpse Beetle."

"I was very interested in that Corpse Beetle at the time, but because it was too fierce, I didn't have the opportunity to study it."

"I didn't expect to see it here..."

When Professor Han said this, he hurriedly took out his phone to call Professor Wang.

"Teacher, what are you doing?"

Xiao Song asked, puzzled.

"I want to tell Old Wang that the Corpse Beetle has appeared in this Forbidden Ground; this is problematic! Also, they know more about this Corpse Beetle. If we ask clearly about these things, maybe we can save that girl named Reba."

Professor Han said as he dialed a string of numbers.

But the other end showed that the call could not be connected.

"Oh! This old fellow must have gone to research ancient artifacts."

Professor Han said as he shuffled his shoes and stood up anxiously from his chair.

"I will go to the Archaeology Academy myself. Time is tight and the task is heavy. What if that girl can still be saved?"

While speaking, Professor Han shuffled towards the door.

"Teacher, wait for me!"

Xiao Song saw that Professor Han was about to leave, so he hurriedly chased after him.

...

Inside the program production office.

Besides the director and other executives, there were also a woman in her fifties wearing a white coat and an elderly foreigner in his sixties with gray hair.

And this woman in the white coat was the famous Professor Bai.

When the director saw Professor Bai enter, he hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to shake her hand.

"Professor Bai, you have finally arrived. This time, we are counting on you."

Professor Bai shook hands with the director briefly, her expression very grave.

"This matter concerns a human life, I will do my best." Professor Bai said while looking at the elderly foreigner behind her, "This is my mentor and also my good friend, Professor Boro."

The director hurriedly greeted him.

"Professor Boro, I'm sorry to trouble you this time."

Professor Boro nodded, "Mr. Director, I heard that this is a live broadcast. I would like to see the insect that injured her, would that be convenient?"

After all, this was a matter of great importance. They wanted to determine the toxicity of this thing, so they had to carefully check whether it was a creature they understood.

They could not just listen to one side of the story.

"Yes, yes, yes!!" The director hurriedly pulled up the feed.

When Professor Bai and Professor Boro saw the Corpse Beetle, their expressions darkened, and they looked at each other.

"This creature is called a Corpse Beetle. I once heard about this species from the Archaeology Academy, but I never had the chance to see it. I didn't expect to see it under such circumstances."

"I have researched the toxins of this creature, but the effect..."

Professor Bai hung her head in shame.

"Xiao Bai, how is the effect?"

Professor Boro looked at her curiously.

"Professor Boro, the toxins of this creature might be stored in the Corpse Beetle's body for a long time, but once they leave the Corpse Beetle's body, these toxins require extremely high environmental conditions."

"I only researched a little bit at the time, so I don't know much about this Corpse Beetle toxin. I only know that its toxicity is not only powerful, but it also has the function of corroding cells."

Professor Bai frowned as she looked at Professor Boro, "Professor, can you neutralize this toxin?"

After hearing this, Professor Boro was silent for a long time. He shook his head, "I can neutralize the toxin, but I cannot fix the damaged cells. Especially since it is a toxin that is still corroding cells, I cannot do that either."

"If this thing really was a bite from a Corpse Beetle!"

Upon hearing this, the smiles on everyone's faces stiffened. No one spoke; they looked at Professor Bai and Professor Boro in shock.

"Is there really no other way?"

The director asked, still unwilling to give up.

"Yes, this kind of toxin is very powerful. I can detoxify, but I cannot stop the damaged cell tissue. So... you should notify her family. After all, there is only one hour of time left. It is better to let her spend more time with her loved ones."

Professor Boro spoke the truth; it was better to let the patient get closer to her family now.

The director and other program executives fell silent. When they realized that there was absolutely no hope for Reba, they all fell silent.

Reba was finished...

They would also be finished along with her.

Professor Bai still wouldn't give up and asked, "Is there really no way at all?"

Professor Boro shook his head, his tone very firm, "There is no way. Even if the patient were in a hospital right now, or in our medical research lab, there would still be no way."

After hearing this, Professor Bai's eyes were filled with complete despair.

Inside the Forbidden Ground —

Seeing Reba's suffering, Ye Bai opened his arms without hesitation, then drew the black gold ancient blade.

Clang!

The blade flashed, drawing blood!
