One hour later, in the second martial arts training hall of the Biological Prosthetics Research Institute, Linghu Mingde was practicing swordsmanship.
It was a Dragon Stage Sword technique, ‘Heavenly Variable Sword Technique’. Linghu Mingde performed it with ease and fluidity, exhibiting the visible aura of a Grandmaster.
He did not deliberately constrain his power, allowing Sword Qi to crisscross within the training hall, slicing through space, shockingly leaving the walls, floors, and ceilings completely undamaged, not even a scratch.
“How does it feel?” Fei Yunlai quietly asked Gong Hengdao, “Do you think this technology is reliable?”
Actually, it would have been more appropriate to ask Wang Tianwu.
That guy was not only an Illusion Master and a Magic expert but also had some understanding of Armament technology.
...
However, the matter of Wang Tianwu signing a lifetime contract not only failed to repair their friendship but instead made Fei Yunlai feel a bit of a crisis.
He knew this guy too well; with just a small movement from Wang Tianwu, he could roughly guess his thoughts.
This guy not only wanted to compete with him for the directorship of the Alien Company but also had his eyes on his current position as Chief Operating Officer.
Although Wang Tianwu’s human resources department also wielded significant authority, its income was less than the three major divisions under his command: Alien, Escort, and Security.
They received a high commission for each mission they completed.
“These data are too complex, I can’t make heads or tails of it,” Gong Hengdao initially shook his head slightly, then gestured with his chin towards Lu Hanyuan: “That guy should know what’s going on.”
Gong Hengdao noticed that Lu Hanyuan was earnestly studying the data from several monitoring devices.
Noticing the two men’s gaze, Lu Hanyuan nodded slightly, “The spiritual burden on Linghu Mingde has indeed been significantly reduced. According to his testing data, it appears to have reduced by about 3% overall.”
The combined effect of these two armaments was truly astonishing.
Linghu Mingde was a Super Monarch of Eight Realms, sporting twenty or thirty pieces of armament. If they were all replaced, how much spiritual power could be freed up?
Although Lu Hanyuan struggled to suppress the emotional surge in his chest, his words still revealed some excitement, “Moreover, the effectiveness of these two pieces of armament is also very strong. Compared to the corresponding models released by major prosthetic companies, they enhance performance by 42% and 35% respectively, especially that set of meridians, which can truly connect with the human meridians, greatly aiding Linghu Mingde.”
Fei Yunlai’s pupils suddenly narrowed slightly, “That set of meridians can increase effectiveness by 42%? Really?”
Was the technical manual Xue Lingxue sent them actually true? Not only did it contain no false information, but it was also very conservative.
Wang Tianwu, with his hands behind his back, looked at the two beside him with a demeaning gaze, “It couldn’t be truer! Right after Linghu Mingde’s armament was complete, his Qi surged, almost advancing him to the Ninth Realm. It was only because he wasn’t absolutely confident in completing ‘Divine Illumination’ that he temporarily suppressed it. Didn’t you feel it?”
Fei Yunlai thought about how proficient Linghu Mingde is in martial arts. As both being of Eight Realms, Linghu Mingde might well be able to fight ten Wang Tianwus.
Under the circumstance where Linghu Mingde deliberately reined in his Spirit Mechanism, except for Wang Tianwu, whose spiritual power was extremely strong, most others likely could not sense it.
By now, Linghu Mingde had already sheathed his sword and walked back: “Xiao Rui! How much more funding do you need to replace all the armaments on me? How much time will it take?”
Lin Rui pondered for a moment, then discussed with Si Malin and Xie Qing, before answering: “Subtracting the part you previously invested, it still requires more than 500 billion federal coins. As our research is now on the right track, it’ll probably be completed in 3 to 5 months.”
This Heavenly Fox has 8 main armors and 22 auxiliary equipment, with a total armament rating of 8SSS+.
“I’ll have someone transfer the funds to your research institute account later.” Linghu Mingde pressed his hand on his sword, listening to the surging blood within him.
Can I advance to the Ninth Realm in three to five months?
Actually, there was no need to wait until a complete replacement; even halfway through, Linghu Mingde was confident about advancing.
“I’ll also invest!” Lu Shouyang’s voice was firm, cutting and decisive: “BOSS, give me a bit of time to gather the funds, I hope to also install the new armaments within half a year.”
He knew what Lin Rui meant by the new technology that allows for ‘spirit and body integration’—their BOSS is a god!
Lin Rui nodded: “I can fulfill that, the research institute already has enough technical backbone, and we’re currently expanding recruitment.”
Wang Tianwu licked the corner of his lips: “I’ve invested too, hoping to get equipped as soon as possible.”
He had already calculated, just 452 billion federal coins! A total of 452 billion could allow him to advance to the Super Monarch of Eight Realms— he could afford that!
However, Fei Yunlai’s face turned pale; although he had escaped the bankruptcy crisis, he was still deeply in debt. Where could he find money to fund research on armaments?
Lin Rui then smiled and glanced at Fei Yunlai and Gong Hengdao: “Those who are short on money can take loans from me—interest-free!”
Moved beyond words, Fei Yunlai suddenly thought—I, Fei Yunlai, have drifted half my life, but today I finally found a wise leader!
Gong Hengdao’s expression remained calm; he had already gone bankrupt once, becoming indifferent to money. Whatever the BOSS says, goes.
At this moment, Lin Rui suddenly raised his eyebrows, all because the First General of the Security Bureau had sent him a message.
Li Xianglong: Are you free now? Take a video call from me.
Lin Rui was currently hosting Linghu Mingde, surrounded by many sensitive matters, and immediately declined.
Li Xianglong then sent a message: Xiao Rui, the President has decided to assemble an envoy group, heading to Great Song Luojing two days later to negotiate personally with the inhabitant of the East Abyss. I hope during this time, you can ensure the President’s safety to the best extent, offering him some protection.
Lin Rui was taken aback by the words, thinking what a bold President!
He then sensed something unusual happening with his Alien.
Moments later, Lin Rui replied oddly to the message.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): It’s also a coincidence, the Divine Envoy has just appointed me to be responsible for the President’s safety during his stay in Luojing, and to temporarily act as the Deputy Chief of Honglusi, overseeing the matters of charging the Heavenly Demon.
