383: Chapter 833 Mission Completed! Biology Experience +200,000!

All blood samples collected during this period were handed over to Shin-chan for analysis. Director Luo and his team could do very limited work; they understood too little about the molecular structure and mechanism of action of SOD-2.

Moreover, Zhao Yang did not give them any privileged data; after all, secrecy leads to success.

It was not that he didn't trust Director Luo and the others, but rather that the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better. The fewer people, the lower the possibility of a leak!

With the support of clinical data, Zhao Yang felt more confident about the direction of improvement. He set the smoothness of the metabolic decay curve as the primary optimization goal, followed by targeted transport efficiency.

Every fine-tuning of the molecular structure generated a full version of the pharmacodynamic prediction curve in Shin-chan's simulator. He would mark the differences on paper and then transmit the correction plan back to Shin-chan, letting it make the adjustments.

This was far more useful than the average academic workhorse!

After all, Shin-chan was simultaneously conducting hundreds of parallel experiments, using robotic arms to precisely add newly synthesized agents into reaction vessels on a sterile workbench, and transmitting real-time activity data and metabolite analysis for each group of cells.

The key was that it didn't complain about hardship or fatigue; the average academic workhorse didn't have this capability.

After screening through a large amount of clinical data and re-adapting it to the human body, SOD-2 began undergoing massive iterations.

Currently, the training efficiency improvement of SOD-2 had steadily exceeded thirty-five percent, finally reaching a peak, and the heart rate fluctuation at peak dosage had also become much smaller than in earlier versions.

At the same time, after Shin-chan's repeated experiments day and night, the optimal synthesis route for SOD-2 was finally verified.

From starting materials to the final product, it took a total of fourteen steps, and the catalysts were replaced with two cheap and easily accessible transition metal complexes, reducing the cost to a fraction of the early version.

But this was not enough; the system task still hadn't signaled completion.

He thought for a moment; perhaps a formally published paper was still missing.

In the document editor, Zhao Yang spent a lot of time organizing the SOD-2 research data into a complete academic paper. He used the real efficacy data and kept the toxicology data intact, but he blurred the synthesis route section, writing only the general laboratory-level route.

The core catalytic reaction steps were summarized in brief text, key process parameters were all hidden, and only a rough range was given for the dosage. After writing the paper, he did not send it directly to the editorial department, but sent it to Professor Gu Ming first.

Professor Gu Ming's call came quickly, his voice filled with irrepressible shock and excitement: "Zhao Yang, is the data in this paper real? An improvement in training efficiency of over thirty-five percent, and the toxicology data is still this good, with almost no harm to the human body. Do you know what this means for sports medicine and the rehabilitation field?"

"The data is real. The clinical trials were conducted in the military. In the first phase, a sufficient number of subjects were tested, with half in the drug group and half in the control group, over a twelve-week cycle. Currently, all physiological indicators are normal, and no obvious adverse reactions have been found."

After hearing Zhao Yang's words, Professor Gu Ming was silent for a while before saying slowly with some emotion.

"You actually achieved this level quietly. It's simply amazing! If this drug is mass-produced and hits the market, the entire landscape of physical training and rehabilitation medicine will be rewritten by you."

Zhao Yang looked at the paper on the screen and said: "I plan to put this paper in the second issue of the Spark Biology Journal as the main feature."

"I was just worrying about whose paper to use as the main feature for this issue! After all, your paper was the main feature in the last issue. If the quality was lower than that one, I would be a bit embarrassed, but with this paper of yours in the second issue, I feel much more relieved!"

Professor Gu Ming said to Zhao Yang with a smile.

"However, I won't go easy on the parts that need to be reviewed!"

"Hmm, feel free to be ruthless!"

Zhao Yang said directly.

The second issue of the Spark Biology Journal was officially released. Zhao Yang's clinical research report on the new SOD-2 physical performance enhancer was placed in the main feature position, occupying the largest space in that issue.

"Have you guys read the main feature paper in the second issue of the Spark Biology Journal? A training efficiency increase of over thirty percent; God Zhao is truly fucking amazing! The clinical trial data is crystal clear. If this could be popularized, I can't even imagine what humanity will be like in the future!"

"As a potential customer from the General Administration of Sport of China, I will reserve a batch for the athletes first. With this, the future of Chinese track and field and swimming is truly promising!"

"Last time when the Chinese Academy of Sciences rated it as Tier 1, some people were still making sarcastic remarks. Now that they see the data in this paper, does their face hurt? In terms of academic weight alone, this paper is at the level of a main feature in any top international journal. God Zhao putting it in his own journal shows that he is really feeding his journal with the best manuscripts."

"The sports medicine community exploded today. My supervisor went crazy at the group meeting this morning, declaring that this is simply an epoch-making invention!"

Just as the journal was released, a system notification sounded in Zhao Yang's mind.

"Ding! Detected that User has published an SOD-2 paper in the Spark Biology Journal as the first author, and the paper has attracted widespread attention in the fields of sports medicine and rehabilitation. Gained Biology experience + 200,000!"

"Ding! Detected that User has independently completed the research and development of a drug with an effect not lower than the spark stimulant without relying on system power. Task completed. Rewards obtained: two one-hour inspiration burst cards, and three random lottery draws."

Zhao Yang leaned back in his chair, looking at the prompt on the system light screen in front of him, a smile appearing on his face.

This task was finally completed!

Not only was the task completed, but this paper was actually worth 200,000 Biology experience points; this was something that exceeded Zhao Yang's expectations.

Three random lottery draws.

Zhao Yang just pondered for a moment before choosing to draw all of them.

"Ding! Obtained 100,000 free experience points!"

"Ding! Obtained one Gold-level optional task card!"

"Ding! Obtained a piece of trash."

A Gold-level task card and 100,000 free experience points!

Zhao Yang's eyes lit up; the results of this card draw were quite good!

Needless to say about the Gold-level task card, this free experience was hard currency! He had rarely drawn this before!

Zhao Yang was quite satisfied with this lottery draw.

He decided to strike while the iron was hot and use that Gold-level optional task card immediately. The card shattered, and a light blue light screen displayed three lines of text.

[Optional Task 1: Go Further. Serve as the dean of a university college and lead the college to achieve significant progress in discipline evaluation. Task reward: some random discipline experience, five random lottery draws.]

[Optional Task 2: Landing on the Moon. Personally step onto the lunar surface and return safely. Task reward: +5 physique points, one random Gold-level item, five random lottery draws.]

[Optional Task 3: Passing the Torch. Within a three-year cycle, train at least two students and have them independently publish high-level research papers as first authors in SCI Tier 1 journals or equivalent journals. Task reward: 100,000 free experience points, five random lottery draws.]

Zhao Yang looked over these three options. Task 1 was too time-consuming; administrative chores would take up the time he spent on research, and Zhao Yang had no interest in that.

Task 2, moon landing, this idea was indeed very tempting, but it was really unrealistic; a manned moon landing project could not be started in the short term.

After looking at the first two options, Zhao Yang shook his head helplessly and could only choose Task 3!

Although training students was difficult, if he screened them well, gave them research topics and laboratories, and provided them with the best environment, a three-year cycle was generous enough, and publishing an SCI Tier 1 paper would be quite easy.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yang did not hesitate at all and chose Task 3 directly.

Meanwhile, in the outside world, because Zhao Yang's paper on the SOD-2 physical performance enhancer had caused a huge shock in the Chinese academic community, its influence had already begun to spread to broader fields.

Because this paper was written in Chinese, all descriptions of clinical data were clear and easy to understand, and even ordinary netizens without a medical background could roughly understand it.

Screenshots of the effects of Zhao Yang's new drug and clinical data began to spread wildly on the internet!

Public opinion online finally began to ferment further!
