Chapter 168: How can Metal Knight be as reliable as Child Emperor?
"As for the identity issue, the association will personally come forward to resolve it. I think no matter who it is, everyone will be willing to give you, Sir Sid, enough convenience. As for the accommodation issue, it is also very simple. I just wonder if Sir Sid has any type of house that he likes?" Xiqi asked immediately.
"I want a large detached villa, preferably one with a quiet environment." Li De immediately made the request.
"Yes, but it's in the suburbs, so it's far from the hospital." Xiqi replied immediately.
"Xichi, it's okay even if we are not in City A. Because distance is not a problem for us at all, and simple space transfer will not be difficult for us." Li De looked at Xichi and said.
Xiqi's eyes widened immediately when he heard this, because the only way he knew of using space means was blasting.
"Since you said so, Sid, I will have someone make arrangements immediately." Xiqi replied immediately.
"Then thank you for your help. Now let me tell you my final request." Li Deke did not stop there, but continued.
"I wonder if you have any other requests, Sid?" While speaking, Xiqi tried his best to control his facial muscles from twitching.
"Regarding the Association Hospital, I need to make one statement in advance and then discuss it with you. First of all, I need to make it clear that my woman has very limited time on weekdays, so please don't send all patients to me.
Although treating patients relies on the health of other organisms, extracting health requires consuming one's own energy. And things that are too easy to obtain are often not cherished by anyone, so I will not take over diseases that cannot be treated by conventional medical means.
You don't have to be too humble about the issue of funding. With me in charge of the association hospital, it will be others who come to us for help instead of us begging others. You have to know that people eat grains and cereals, so it is impossible for them not to get sick.
As long as those wealthy people know of my existence, they will definitely understand the importance of establishing a good relationship with me. After all, I can not only cure terminal illnesses, but also prepare some medicines that are beneficial to the body.
Of course, the preparation of these medicines involves another issue I want to discuss with you, and that is the monster resources. Except for a few monsters that cannot be utilized, most of the monsters with flesh and blood can be used by me.
And we can prepare corresponding medicines according to the characteristics of the monsters. In addition, I am also very interested in the genes of the monsters after they mutate, and I am currently conducting research on gene fusion.
Once we succeed, relying on our abilities, we can easily modify human genes. By then, even ordinary people like you will be able to obtain a physique comparable to that of a tiger-level monster through modification.
Everyone, don't underestimate this. If I confirm that this transformation is feasible and has no side effects, if you don't like strengthening your body, then you will definitely not refuse to extend your lifespan. "
Having said that, Li De stopped and looked at Xiqi.
After hearing what Li De said, not to mention Xichi who was in front of him, even the senior executives in the headquarters meeting room some distance away from the hospital couldn't help but breathe faster.
Because once the project mentioned by Li De is realized, the importance of the Hero Association will undergo a qualitative change.
"Sid, as long as the association can provide resources, it will definitely give priority to you." A voice that was trying hard to suppress excitement came from Xiqi's Bluetooth headset.
"Since we have discussed it, we will be partners in the future. Now, could you please ask that companion to take the treatment video and help me raise some funds from those rich people?" Li De asked immediately.
"How much money do you need and what will it be used for?" A strange inquiring voice came from the Bluetooth headset.
"Of course, it's to transform the Association Hospital. After I took over, the Association Hospital is no longer open to people outside the Association. If you want to get the Association's medical resources, you must join the Association.
Then, apart from the professional heroes fighting on the front line, I think the level of medical resources enjoyed by internal staff should be determined according to the level of their positions. After all, we can't put cadres at the same level as ordinary staff.
Perhaps you can now consider how to assess the level of medical resources, and how much annual donations are required to maintain positions such as honorary directors.
Of course, precisely because the population that can enjoy medical resources is limited, I think it is necessary to substantially upgrade the various supporting facilities within the hospital. After all, if the facilities are too poor, it would be a loss of face for the association.
In addition, the Association Hospital will most likely be a thorn in the eyes of the monsters in the future, and research on monsters also requires sufficiently safe supporting measures, so this transformation is imperative. "Li De looked at Xiqi and said slowly.
"Okay, we will contact Metal Knight later and ask him to come." The words coming from the Bluetooth headset were interrupted by Li De before they were finished.
"Have Metal Knight come to me. The renovation of the Association Hospital must be based on my opinion."
"Okay, we will contact Metal Knight later and let you talk." The voice on the other end was interrupted by Li De again.
"Wait, what does the call mean?" Li De asked.
"It's like this, Sid. Metal Knights are basically all in their own research base, so we usually communicate through phone calls." It was Xichi who spoke this time.
"So you mean we can't have a face-to-face conversation, is that what you mean?" Li De continued to ask.
"That's it!" Xiqi nodded and said.
"Then let's change people. There should be more talents like this in the association, right?" Li De asked Xiqi.
"Well, there are indeed some. Child Emperor, who recently became an S-class hero, is such a genius. It's just that Child Emperor is just a little short of nine years old. In terms of experience." Xichi's tone was obviously hesitant when he said this.
"It doesn't matter. The reason I want to have a face-to-face interview is because the hospital is my base camp and I can't be careless at all. I need to confirm the character of the builder face to face. I don't trust the Metal Knight who I can't meet.
As for Child Emperor, I don't care how old he is. Since you all recognize his strength and think he is qualified to be an S-class hero, then he must be good. As for experience, this word should not be mentioned in front of a genius. " Li De waved his hand and said.
"In that case, I will contact Child Emperor later and ask him to come over. We can discuss the details then." Xiqi nodded.
"Okay, find me a temporary hotel to stay in before I find a place to stay." Li De said immediately.
"Okay!" Xiqi nodded.
In fact, he wanted to invite Li De and his team to the headquarters, but since Li De had already spoken, he naturally had to give up.
As for why Li De asked to stay in the hotel, it was because he didn't want to go to the headquarters and be monitored by Metal Knight.
Li Decai didn't believe that the old man built the building without any backup plan to monitor it through the Internet.
This is also the reason why Li De proposed to meet with Dr. Metal Knight Foboy at the beginning. Because Li De knew that he would not come to see Li De in person, Li De used this excuse to ask Child Emperor for help.
After all, this little guy is much more credible than that old silver coin.
After Xiqi finished talking with Li De, Li De and his group went directly to a nearby high-end hotel to stay.
As for why Li De didn't go to the headquarters to meet the association's cadres now, it was mainly because there was no need.
After all, Li De had said before that he did not participate in decision-making meetings and only occasionally asked about the heroes on the front line.
Therefore, if he went now, it would be tantamount to breaking his promise.
After all, anyone who is not a fool knows that at this moment in the headquarters' meeting room, the group of cadres must be studying the grading issue that Li De mentioned.
Only after this has been discussed, will they take the video of Alexia and the other girls treating patients to find those rich and powerful people to let them know that the Hero Association has powerful medical resources.
Then the concept of honorary directors was introduced to bring together the political and business circles, demanding not only money but also power, making it easier for the Hero Association to gain a higher social status and greater influence in the future.
Li Decai didn't want to attend such a boring meeting.
The next day, Child Emperor appeared in front of Li De with a curious look on his face.
"Nice to meet you, genius Jun Tongdi." Li De spoke first with a smile.
"Nice to meet you too, Master Sid." Child Emperor's way of addressing Li De was quite unique.
"Hahahahaha, isn't it just a wizard? But I would rather you, Mr. Genius, call me Brother Xide." Li De admitted it without any hesitation.
"Okay, Brother Sid, you can call me by my heroic name, Child Emperor." Child Emperor nodded immediately.
"Well, Child Emperor, in order not to waste time, I will ask straight to the point. Before you came, did the Hero Association tell you what we were going to talk about when we met?" Li De asked.
"Brother Sid, is this about the hospital renovation?" Child Emperor nodded, then spoke to Li De to confirm.
"Overall, it is, but there is a slight change from yesterday. I don't want to renovate the existing association hospital. Let it continue to operate as the association's external hospital. This will avoid negative public opinion from the outside world. So I want to find a place to rebuild an internal hospital for the association." Li De said immediately.
"Find a new place to build a hospital?" Child Emperor asked with a little surprise.
"Well, I think this will allow you to perform better, and you don't have to worry, the association will definitely not reject my plan." Li De nodded.
"Brother Sid, I have nothing to worry about. It's actually better this way." Child Emperor said, his hand moving habitually, but then he held back.
"I'm really sorry, Xiaolan, go ask someone to bring up some desserts. Child Emperor, just tell Xiaolan what you like to eat. Don't be polite. After all, today's conversation will definitely not be over in a short time." Li De said immediately.
"Okay, Brother Sid, Sister Ran, I want some." Child Emperor then told Ran Mouri about his request with a sweet smile.
After a while, when Xiaolan brought desserts and drinks up, Li De took a few bites and spoke again: "Regarding the requirements of the internal hospital, I have the following."
"Brother Sid, please go ahead." As Child Emperor answered, the schoolbag behind him suddenly opened, and an ultra-thin screen with a mechanical bracket was extended in front of Child Emperor.
"I won't ask about the location and design drawings, you can do whatever you want. But the ground part must have sufficient defense, and the underground part needs to have cages that can imprison ghost-level monsters and a weapon system to prevent the monsters from escaping." Li De said immediately.
"Brother Sid, about monsters," Child Emperor immediately spoke.
But just as he started, he was stopped by Li De.
"Child Emperor, please don't underestimate me. If I didn't think that the cage to hold a Dragon-level monster was too difficult, and that Dragon-level monsters are not so easy to capture alive, I would have made this request to you. I don't even take a Demon-level monster seriously."
"Okay, since you said so, Brother Sid, I will do my best." Child Emperor nodded and stopped persuading him.
In fact, he had obtained the relevant video through his own technology about the remote conversation between the association’s top leaders and Li De yesterday.
It is also clear what the significance of Reed's research on monsters is to the Hero Association.
Of course, his idea is similar to Xichi's. He believes that once the genes can be modified to make the physique of a first-line hero or at least a tiger-level monster, it will be very important for the association.
As for extending his lifespan, the current Child Emperor is far from feeling the urgency of his life passing away.
"I won't say much about the defense and weapon systems. After all, you are the expert. My second requirement is that the hospital should have two internal networks, one external network for patients and one internal network for internal staff." Li De made the second requirement.
"Brother Sid, this is very simple. Are you afraid that someone will hack into the network and steal the data?" Child Emperor asked.
"Not really. In fact, our research is completely different from general scientific and technological means. Even if someone really stole the information, we don't have the ability to do it, so there's no need to do it. But I'm afraid that someone will be self-righteous and create trouble in the end." Li De nodded and said.
"I understand. Brother Sid, do you have any other requests?" Child Emperor continued to ask.
"I hope you can equip the hospital with a supercomputer. After all, the research involves a lot of data processing and calculations, and I don't want to waste time because of equipment problems." Li De continued.
"No problem, supercomputers can indeed save a lot of time." Child Emperor nodded. After all, he also had his own supercomputer in the base in Y City.
"With your technology, Child Emperor, can you achieve energy self-sufficiency now?" Li De continued to ask.
"Brother Sid, this is also very simple. I have already made a controlled fusion device for myself. As long as there are enough materials, there will be no problem." Child Emperor nodded and replied.
