222 Research Discussion

"Have you made the account for the trading platform?" Manuel Chavez asked.

"I already did, sir." His assistant nodded.

"Good. Since Mr. Roa sent these weapons to be traded, put them up on the platform." Manuel Chavez felt a bit of a heartache when he said this. He wanted to arm his soldiers with these weapons, but he couldn't do it without Arlan's approval. Furthermore, he didn't want to offend Arlan for he was now working for the latter.

"Alright, Mr. President. By the way, the researchers from Last City have arrived and they are now resting at the building. Do you want to see them?"

Hearing this, Manuel Chavez nodded his head. "I have to see them before the meeting. How much time do we have left before the meeting starts?" He asked.

His assistant checked the time on his watch and replied. "The meeting will begin at 10:30 a.m., sir. We still have more than an hour to spare."

"That's enough. Take me to them." Manuel Chavez said.

His assistant brought him to the accommodation of the researchers. The people Arlan sent this time were not the main researchers of his laboratory. One was an old man named Aurelio Vilbar, while the other one was a middle-aged man named Mickoy Bondoc. Both were professors from the same university and they were once colleagues before the zombie outbreak. Aurelio Vilbar was a biology professor, while Mickoy Bondoc was a physics and chemistry professor. They had major roles in the laboratory of Last City and they were sent here to show the results of their research.

Manuel Chavez greeted them respectfully. "It's good to see you both here."

"We are honored to get your invitation, Mr. President." Aurelio Vilbar smiled kindly. More wrinkles appeared on his face when he smiled. Meanwhile, Mickoy was a silent man. He just nodded at the president to acknowledge his presence.

Manuel Chavez chatted with them briefly.

When the time hit 10:15 a.m., the president's assistant reminded him about the meeting.

"Gentlemen, please follow me to my office. The meeting is about to start." Manuel Chavez brought them to his office.

Soon, the meeting of the global leaders started.

"Hello, everyone! I'm here with the head researcher of our research team…" The US president introduced the person beside him.

The leaders of the other nations also introduced the researchers they brought.

The discussion began and the researcher from the US told everyone about the results of their studies. The US government put a lot of focus on studying the virus. Their research had more depth. They informed everyone about what they had observed from the virus.

The researchers from other nations also reported the results of their studies, but their findings weren't as conclusive. Other than the US, only the powerhouse countries like Russia, China, the United Kingdom, Japan, Canada, and a few others managed to show some solid data. There were even some weaker countries who only had a minor understanding of the virus.

In the middle of the discussion, Aurelio Vilbar who was silent the whole time finally spoke. "Everyone, I am Aurelio Vilbar, a researcher from Maharlika. This is my colleague, Mickoy Bondoc. I'd like to show you the results of our research."

The researchers from other nations turned their attention to the two after hearing his words, but when they heard that he was from a small country in Asia, everyone had low hopes for them.

"We collected samples from the…" At the start, no one paid attention to them, but everyone realized that their research was actually more concrete and detailed. They had a better understanding of the different types of zombies and they even managed to discover the weaknesses and advantages of each type of zombie. They had a slight edge over other countries when it came to understanding the zombies, but their research was still a bit lacking compared to the US and its leading rival, China. However, this was already enough to shock the entire world. They never would have thought that a small country in the southeastern part of Asia would actually provide such deep insights into the zombie virus.

The eyes of the US president and the president of China gleamed as they stared at Aurelio and Mickoy. They both believed that it was such a pity for two talented researchers to stay in such a small country.

The global leaders realized that the discussion about the zombie virus might take longer than they had expected. In order to not waste time, they decided to begin the preparations for the trading platform.

"Gentlemen, I believe everyone here has already created their accounts. You can now put up the items that you want to be traded. We will send an appraiser to your bases to inspect the goods and after the inspection is done, you can begin trading using the platform." The US president taught them how to use the tools of the platform. The website was designed neatly so everyone quickly learned how to use the platform.

After the leaders of every nation had put up their items, the US president announced. "Ladies and gentlemen, our appraisers will arrive within two days to inspect your items. I hope that…"

After some more words, their meeting concluded.

In the office of the US president, President Joe Wallace leaned on his seat. "How is the meeting of the researchers going?" He asked while looking at his assistant.

"They are still in the middle of discussions, Mr. President." His assistant replied.

"Send James to Maharlika and tell him to persuade their two researchers to come to our country. We can't let such talented individuals rot in there." President Joe said.

"Yes, Mr. President!"

President Joe Wallace adjusted his posture and asked. "What about the trading platform? Is there something interesting among the items they put up for trade?"

His assistant checked the data on the platform. "There's nothing worth looking into, but…"

"But what?" President Wallace furrowed his eyebrows.

"Maharlika put up thousands of weapons for trade. They are models from 2010 to 2020 so they still have some value. If put together, these weapons should be worth around 22 million Earth Dollars." His assistant's words made President Joe Wallace fall into deep thought.

"Send ten of our agents to come with James. Their task is to obtain information about the base in Maharlika." The US president said in a serious voice.

"Yes, sir!"
