Becoming Their Guiding Spirit

Countless large companies in Columbia had already proactively offered Jessica very attractive cooperation plans. Some companies even offered an absurd 9-to-1 profit-sharing plan in Jessica’s favor. As for the reason, everyone understood. If they could get on good terms with Raythean Industries through its young heiress, the company could basically be declared an instant success.

After all.

What level was Raythean Industries on?

A company that could produce ten billion in liquid cash was already a super-large company, but Raythean Industries casually gave Jessica ten billion to play with. The levels were suddenly different.

And since Shining and Liz joined Raythean Medica, they quickly threw themselves into their work. Although neither of them knew much about modern medicine, they had their own unique research in medical Originium Arts and could complement Silence and Ptilopsis perfectly.

With their addition.

The 2.0 version of the Oripathy-alleviating drug gradually made some breakthroughs. It was estimated that in another month or so, the 2.0 version could enter the clinical trial stage.

And the 1.0 version of the drug had also entered mass production, with Jessica continuously supplying it to the Reunion Movement and [Azazel].

Due to the lack of profitable projects and the massive funding required for scientific research.

Raythean Medica was temporarily operating at a loss.

But that was normal.

After all, the company was just starting out. And when Jessica’s parents found out their precious daughter had actually started a pharmaceutical company and had already successfully developed a drug, the extremely happy couple waved their hands and gave their daughter another ten billion as subsequent start-up capital.

After all.

Raythean Industries had also been involved in the pharmaceutical industry before.

The pharmaceutical industry was indeed extremely profitable once you had a patented special product, but the initial research and development investment was also notoriously expensive. Ordinary companies couldn’t afford to play, only a super-large company like Raythean Industries could.

As for the Reunion Movement, Lucas Reeve would occasionally go over to chat with Alina and FrostNova, and then ask about the current progress of the Reunion Movement.

The Reunion Movement was not marching quickly.

Because they had to bypass the Army Group’s defensive lines, the Reunion Movement basically followed the border of the Ursus ice fields. In a month and a half, they had covered a good portion of the journey. Once they reached the south, even if it was still a bit cold, life would be much better than before. The long-distance march exhausted some of the ordinary Infected, and under Patriot’s orders, the Shieldguards carried them one by one, moving forward together.

Now, the Reunion Movement was one.

Although there weren’t many people.

But no one would abandon anyone else.

And the counterattack from the Black Serpent and Ursus didn’t seem to come as quickly as imagined.

For a full month and a half, there was no sign of the Black Serpent. Lucas Reeve would also use his abilities from time to time to investigate the surrounding situation to prevent any tails from following. If they successfully shook off the Black Serpent, that would be for the best. In that case, the Reunion Movement might experience a brief period of peace and stability.

However.

The current Reunion Movement was like a small boat on a stormy sea. It had to be extremely careful, otherwise, there was a constant risk of capsizing...

”Mr. Reeve~~”

Today was Valentine’s Day in Columbia. In Columbia’s largest shopping mall, countless couples were hugging and happily shopping here. In the vast mall, the scent of hormones reached an all-time high.

For couples.

It was so sweet, so sweet.

And for single people.

Humph!

Just the sour stench of love, nothing special. Eating alone is the best.

However, saliva uncontrollably flowed from the corners of their eyes.

And Jessica was happily shopping with Lucas Reeve. Although to outsiders, it looked like Jessica was happily wandering through the mall alone, sometimes even muttering to herself involuntarily. The scene was a bit strange.

The only regret... Lucas Reeve didn’t have a physical body. Otherwise, she would definitely be like the couples coming and going around them, hooking her arm in his and leaning on his shoulder while they shopped sweetly.

Hehe!

Thinking of this.
