Talents: sixth sense, extraordinary endurance, ability to control oneself, memory palace, good weather and favorable harvests.
This mission rewards two skills at the same time. The planting skill is easy to understand, but the national destiny: good weather and good harvest is more metaphysical.
If Lu Cheng governs a region, or becomes an emperor, the climate in the area under his rule will be affected. The longer Lu Cheng is in office, the higher the people's support and the greater the impact of good weather and good harvests.
Of course, this skill will only work if Lu Cheng becomes the chief official above the county magistrate.
After taking a quick look at the rewards, Lu Cheng turned his attention to the new reincarnation mission.
"Quest world: Blood Orchid of Anaconda, main quest: Search for blood orchids. Find at least ten blood orchids."
This mission is somewhat different. It is not the wish of a certain individual or a group, but a direct request from the system.
Lu Cheng didn't have time to think about it, a new journey of time travel had already begun...
…………World dividing line…………
In July 2004, a biotechnology company named Byron Mitchell in New York City, USA, was about to go bankrupt due to poor management. In order to save their company, the company's owner Gordon Mitchell and biology doctor Jack Byron had to show some of the company's research results to venture capital companies.
There is a magical plant in the distant Borneo, called the blood orchid, which has a dormant period of 7 years and blooms once every 7 years, each time for half a year. The blood orchid contains a special chemical component that may greatly extend the life of cells and enable human cells to break the "Hayflick limit".
The Hayflick limit is a theory proposed by biologist Hayflick. This theory holds that there is a limit to the number of cell divisions in vertebrates. The number of divisions of human cells is about 40 to 60 times, and each division takes about 2 years.
Once this limit is reached, cells can no longer divide, leading to aging and death.
In simple terms, if we can make full use of this chemical substance in the blood orchid to help the human body break the Hayflick limit, we may be able to extend human life and even enable humans to evolve.
Therefore, Weihe Venture Capital and Byron Mitch Biotechnology each selected some people to form a scientific expedition team to go to Borneo to look for blood orchids.
Borneo, also known as Kalimantan, is located in Southeast Asia and is the third largest island on Earth. There are large tracts of tropical jungle on the island, with lush vegetation and a rich variety of plants and animals, ranging from elephants, tigers, and clouded leopards to various poisonous insects, snakes, and ants, including some mysterious species that have never been discovered.
The island is divided into three areas, belonging to three different countries, Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia.
This island began to pay tribute to China during the Liang, Sui and Tang dynasties. Zheng He of the Ming Dynasty passed by this island twice during his voyages to the West. In Chinese history, this island was named Borneo.
At this time, Palan Province, western Borneo.
Inside a bar, Lu Cheng was sitting at a table in the corner, facing a burly European and American man wearing a black T-shirt and a black baseball cap.
"Lu, even though you've given me a lot of money, I still want to give you a suggestion. It's the rainy season now, and it's very risky to go through the rainforest. Also, the target you're looking for is uncertain, and you may need to stay in the jungle for a while, which is undoubtedly even more dangerous."
Lu Cheng picked up his glass and clinked it with the other party: "I'll add another 20,000, making it 50,000 US dollars."
"Okay, deal!"
A few days ago, Lu Cheng had already arrived in this world, but he was not in Borneo at that time, but on a tourist bus heading to Myanmar.
Afterwards, Lu Cheng and his two compatriots were taken to a dilapidated building in Laogai, Kokang. They were surrounded by a group of people. It was obvious that it was a fraud den.
Lu Cheng was also a little surprised that fraud in northern Myanmar had already begun to emerge in this era.
That night, Lu Cheng took direct action and wiped out the entire fraud den. Finally, through interrogation, he followed the clues and found their boss.
Following the principle of not remembering grudges and taking revenge on the same day, Lu Cheng killed more than 12 people before o'clock that night, dismantled an entire fraud gang, and seized a large amount of cash, including Myanmar kyat, RMB, and US dollars, as well as gold, silver, jewelry, guns and ammunition, sticks, machetes, and other items.
Afterwards, Lu Cheng found an Internet cafe in the local area and used his extraordinary hacking skills to find the Byron Mitch Biotechnology Company in the United States that was researching blood orchids. He found all the information he wanted, including the approximate location where the blood orchid grew and the itinerary of the expedition team formed by Byron Mitch Company and Weihe Venture Capital.
By the way, Lu Cheng looked up some information about the Golden Triangle and went there. He found a warlord who had shipped contraband to China. He first looted the other party's arsenal and got a batch of guns and ammunition, grenades, explosives, rocket launchers, gasoline and other supplies. He also sent the warlord who liked to worship Buddha to the West to see the Buddha, and took away the US dollars and gold that he had not spent before his death.
It took Lu Cheng less than a day to complete all of this.
Afterwards, Lu Cheng evaded the layers of pursuit and hunt, forged a new identity for himself on the Internet, and found a black intermediary to handle a complete set of documents. He successfully boarded a plane to Borneo and arrived smoothly in Palan Province. In this bar, he found an important character in the movie, the captain and combat force of the expedition team, Bill Johnson.
At the same time, an expedition team from New York also happened to arrive here, also looking for Bill, wanting to hire his ship to go look for the blood orchid...
