Shen Qiu pondered for a moment, then gave Angie another instruction.
"Anji, we have to hide all the mechanical troops we brought back inside the fortress. We can't let others find them, otherwise we will be exposed."
"Yeah, okay."
Angie responded quickly.
"By the way, Angie, how long will it take you to produce all these resonators?"
Shen Qiu asked immediately.
Anji scratched his head and estimated, then said to Shen Qiu.
"If we ask the mechanical engineers to produce all of them, it will take at least ten days. After all, the efficiency of the production line is limited."
"Ten days, so I'll leave the fortress and do something."
Shen Qiu thought for a moment and replied.
"Ah, where are you going, boss? Do you want us to come with you?"
Chen Ye and others asked in surprise.
"No, I'm just looking for someone. It's not dangerous. I can do it by myself."
Shen Qiu shook his head and explained calmly.
"All right!"
After hearing this, Yun Xiaoxi and others didn't ask any more questions.
"What about me? Should I stay here or come with you?"
Angie asked impatiently at this time.
"You should stay in the fortress as well. I have another task for you."
"What's the matter?"
"The renovation plan for the floating fortress needs to be changed. Help me build a laboratory in the fortress and make it more advanced. If the budget is not enough, ask Huang Lang for it."
Shen Qiu then gave instructions to Anji.
"no problem."
Angie responded immediately.
"Then it's settled. You take the floating fortress back to the City of Stars first. I'll come find you after I'm done with my work. Once the resonators are produced, we'll head to the other world."
Shen Qiu settled the matter simply and neatly.
"good!"
Angie and others responded.
…
Not long after, on the G878 highway.
Shen Qiu rode the Black Knight motorcycle at a speed of 250KM/H. Since they were in the occupied area, there were no vehicles on the spacious road, only some roaming monsters.
The whole area was filled with dead silence, giving people a desolate feeling.
Shen Qiu took a deep breath, stepped on the accelerator and headed towards the City of Shenxing.
More than ten hours later, Shen Qiu passed through layers of checkpoints and finally arrived at the outskirts of Chenxing City. He drove along the highway into the city.
The scenery along the way remains the same.
But this time, Shen Qiu's eyes flashed with doubt. He found that although there were still many tents on both sides of the road, the density was not as exaggerated as before. There were even empty spaces, and many tents were put away.
There seem to be fewer migrants staying here.
Shen Qiu was a little confused. Where did everyone go? Unfortunately, he couldn't figure it out after thinking for a long time, so he stopped thinking about it and got down to business.
He quickened his pace and drove towards the parliament building.
…
After a long time, Shen Qiu arrived at the central parliament building. He walked in unimpeded with the dragon badge and headed towards the office of Parliament Speaker Long Yan.
Soon he appeared at the door of the office of the Speaker of the Longyan Council, but the door was closed.
Shen Qiu took a deep breath, reached out and knocked on the door.
Dongdong~
There was no response.
There was a hint of surprise in Shen Qiu's eyes, and then he knocked on the door again, but still no response.
"Not here?"
Shen Qiu was very surprised. He immediately raised his bracelet and tried to call Long Yan.
As a result, the busy tone indicated that the call could not be connected.
“Trouble!”
Shen Qiu muttered to himself with a headache.
"Master Shen Qiu?"
At this time, an uncertain voice sounded.
After hearing this, Shen Qiu turned his head and saw Secretary Lin Ping coming over. He greeted her happily.
"Secretary Lin Ping, it's great to see you."
"It's really Lord Shen Qiu. You were wearing a mask and I almost didn't recognize you. Are you here to see the chairman of the Longyan Council?"
Secretary Lin Ping said with a smile.
"Yes, but I knocked on the door for a long time and there was no response. Is he not here?"
"I'm sorry, Council Chairman Long Yan is not here. How about you go back first, and I'll tell him as soon as he comes back?"
"Well, I have something important to discuss with him."
Shen Qiu said with some headache.
"Is it important?"
After hearing what Shen Qiu said, Lin Ping confirmed it again.
"Um!"
Shen Qiu nodded heavily.
"Then come with me, I will take you to find him."
Lin Ping then said to Shen Qiu.
"Okay, thank you very much."
Shen Qiu quickly thanked Lin Ping and then left with her.
Not long after, Shen Qiu rode the Black Knight carrying Lin Ping on the No. 7 underground expressway, leading directly to the outside of Shenxing City.
Shen Qiu asked very puzzled.
"Where are we going? Are we going to the hot spring resort?"
"No, but close."
Lin Ping smiled and said.
"Okay, by the way, Master Lin Ping, can I ask you something?"
"sure."
"When I came to Shenxing City today, I found that the number of people migrating and settling there has decreased. What's going on? Where are all the people going?"
Shen Qiu asked curiously.
"You've been in the City of Stars recently, so you may not have paid much attention to the Red Alliance. Let me briefly tell you that the Red Alliance is behind the City of Sunken Stars. They have learned from the methods of the destroyed civilization to deal with natural disasters and built two special underground cities to ease population pressure. At the same time, they have also opened up special underground planting areas and underground factory areas to resume production."
"That's great, but how come I haven't heard of such a big project before?"
"This was all planned by Council President Long Yan a long time ago. It is a secret among secrets. Otherwise, how could it be put into use so promptly?"
"Chairman Long Yan is indeed far-sighted."
Shen Qiu said with deep emotion.
Lin Ping smiled and didn't say anything more.
…
A few hours later, Shen Qiu drove Lin Ping to the halfway point of the hot spring mountain.
"Stop here."
Lin Ping said with a smile.
Shen Qiu immediately stopped and turned to look around. There were hot spring villas all around him. He was wondering where Council Chairman Long Yan would be if he was not in the hot spring villa
At this time, Lin Ping pointed to the distance and said.
"Master Shen Qiu, please park your car here, and then walk along the unmaintained mountain road. After you go over the mountain to the back, you will find the Chairman of the Longyan Council."
"Okay, thank you."
Shen Qiu then parked the car and walked towards the mountain road.
Lin Ping stood there, quietly watching Shen Qiu's figure gradually walking away.
More than half an hour later, Shen Qiushun walked along the mountain road at a very fast speed, crossed the Hot Spring Mountain, and kept moving forward.
At this time he heard the sound of a waterfall.
Shen Qiu then quickened his pace, and soon a dilapidated bamboo pavilion came into view.
There was a pile of clothes in the bamboo pavilion, and next to it was a small waterfall with rushing water constantly rushing down. Shen Qiu saw at a glance that Council Chairman Long Yan was sitting under the waterfall with his upper body naked and his eyes closed, letting the rushing water wash over his body.
"Chairman of the Longyan Council!"
Shen Qiu walked to the bamboo pavilion and shouted.
Council Chairman Long Yan opened his eyes at this time. After seeing Shen Qiu, he immediately stood up and walked towards the bamboo pavilion from under the waterfall.
Shen Qiu picked up the towel in the bamboo pavilion, handed it to Council Chairman Long Yan who was walking over, and greeted him respectfully.
"Chairman of the Longyan Council."
"Shen Qiu, why are you here?"
Long Yan took the towel and asked with a kind smile.
"Secretary Lin Ping brought me here. Why did you come here to rush to the waterfall, Chairman Long Yan?"
Shen Qiu asked curiously.
"Haha, this means that we don't have money to soak in the hot springs, so we can only take a free dip in the waterfall, right?"
Long Yan replied with a smile.
After hearing what Long Yan said, Shen Qiu couldn't help but laugh and replied.
"You are such a joke."
Long Yan said to Shen Qiu in a good mood.
"Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. Why did you come to me specifically? Are you in any trouble?"
"I have something very important to report to you."
Shen Qiu replied seriously.
"you say!"
When Long Yan saw Shen Qiu talking about serious matters, his expression suddenly became serious.
Shen Qiu raised the bracelet, tapped it a few times, and suddenly a projection appeared.
The image displayed in the projection was Zhou Yan, Bicas, Elvis, Zhuo En, together with the defeated army's deputy leader Sima Di, Lin Beize and others.
Long Yan looked at the projected image and couldn't help but frown. His cloudy eyes kept changing their gaze, and then he asked.
"How did you get this video?"
"I secretly photographed this. Not only did Zhou Sheng hang out with Shiben and the Gray Alliance, he also colluded with the Church of the Defeaters."
Shen Qiu said directly.
"Um."
Long Yan nodded in response.
"Lord Long Yan, with this evidence, can we convict Zhou Sheng?"
Shen Qiu tried to ask.
Long Yan shook his head and explained to Shen Qiu.
"Theoretically, the evidence is solid, but we cannot expose this matter now because it will not have any effect and may even backfire."
"Why?"
"Although we have an agreement with the Blue Alliance, we must unify our stance on anything involving the Silent Hermitage and the Church of the Vanquished! But that's just theory. The Blue Alliance doesn't care about Zhou Sheng colluding with the Vanquished. They only care about their own interests!"
"this… "
"Is it surprising? Let me give you an example and you will understand! Suppose you were hanging out with the Silent Hermitage and were discovered by the Blue Alliance, do you think I would care?"
Long Yan Council Chairman asked with a smile.
“It seems to make sense.”
"So once the relationship breaks out, Zhou Sheng will only side with the Blue Alliance. Moreover, Zhou Sheng is not as simple as you think. He is not a small ant, but a giant crocodile. He has the capital to make a deal with Speaker of the Oroco Council. If your evidence shows that he is involved with the Silent Hermitage, it may be more effective."
"So we're just going to leave it alone?"
"Not really. We are just forbearing temporarily. If we want to get rid of a giant crocodile, it is irrational to show our true colors before destroying his foundation. What we need to do is to dig out his foundation bit by bit, and when the time is right, we can bring out evidence and attack him directly, without giving him a chance to turn over."
The Speaker of the Longyan Council said with a smile.
"I see. I'll pass the evidence to you."
Shen Qiu operated the bracelet and transmitted the data to the chairman of the Long Yan Council.
At this time, Long Yan Council Chairman asked thoughtfully.
"Shen Qiu, you were able to take this picture. Did you find the location of Zhou Sheng's factory?"
"I found it. His factory is located in a different world called the Kingdom of Famn. That world is very civilized. There are special stabilization devices inside the royal city. It is difficult to enter without a resonance object."
Shen Qiu did not hide it from Council Chairman Long Yan.
"What a trick! I was wondering why I couldn't find his factory. It turns out it's hidden so deep."
Long Yan said with a serious expression.
"But don't worry too much. I have already taken down his factory."
Shen Qiu replied with a smile.
When Long Yan heard Shen Qiu's words, he looked surprised and asked in confusion.
"You took over Zhou Sheng's factory? How did you do it? They have so many experts, you alone can't be their opponent?"
"Hehe, it's hard to explain right now, but I was just lucky, and they don't even know it was me who did it."
Shen Qiu replied with a smile.
After listening to Shen Qiu's explanation, Long Yan was even more surprised. But he soon accepted Shen Qiu's words and praised him happily.
"You are amazing. So you have all of Zhou Sheng's resonators?"
"Yes, there are about 100,000 of them, but I still have use for these resonators and need to use them to save my friends. When I use them up, I can donate them to the Red Alliance."
Shen Qiu said with a smile.
In fact, Shen Qiu had considered selling this batch of resonators before, but he thought that if he dared to sell such a large number of resonators, Zhou Sheng would immediately know that it was him who did it, and he would be in trouble then, so it was better to give it to the Red Alliance.
At this time, Council Chairman Long Yan also smiled and said.
"The Red Alliance does need the Resonator, but you don't have to donate it. I can't just take your things for free. I will pay you accordingly when the time comes."
"Are you sure? You can't even afford a hot spring bath right now, and this batch is worth 200 billion Blue Alliance coins."
Shen Qiu replied jokingly.
"Haha, let's put things in perspective! I don't have money to soak in the hot springs, but that doesn't mean the Red Alliance doesn't have money."
Long Yan replied with a chuckle. It can be seen that he was having a very happy chat with Shen Qiu and was in a very good mood.
"Okay, I won't disturb you from taking a shower then."
Shen Qiu did not refuse either.
Long Zhanshen stretched out his hand and patted Shen Qiu on the shoulder, speaking earnestly.
"Well, go ahead. Also, be careful. If you find anything wrong or someone is watching you, remember to tell me immediately."
In fact, it’s not that Long Yan doesn’t trust Shen Qiu, but he is worried that he might inadvertently leave clues behind, which would be discovered by Zhou Sheng, and then he would be in danger.
"good!"
Of course Shen Qiu understood the hidden meaning in Long Yan's words, and felt warm in his heart.
"Go ahead."
Speaker Long Yan of the Council waved his hand.
Shen Qiu bowed, turned and left.
…
Not long after, Shen Qiu returned to the halfway point of the mountain and saw that his black knight was still parked there, but Lin Ping had already left.
Shen Qiu didn't think much about it, so he rode on the black knight, raised his bracelet and called Qi Lin.
Beep~
As a result, the call couldn't be connected.
"What's going on? Why can't I get through to any phone calls today?"
Shen Qiu was also very surprised.
So Shen Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and dialed Zhang Shi's number. Fortunately, the call went through this time and Zhang Shi picked up the phone quickly.
"Lord Shen Qiu!"
Zhang Shi greeted respectfully.
"Zhang Shi, is Qi Lin at the Black Owl Research Institute? I have something to discuss with him."
"I'm sorry, Master Shen Qiu, Master Qi Lin is not here."
"Ah? Where did he go?"
"He went to the Gamma Lab to attend the Red Alliance's research conference. If you have something important to talk to him about, you can go directly to the Gamma Lab."
"Okay, I got it!"
Shen Qiu immediately hung up the phone and rode the black knight towards the City of Shenxing.
…
At dusk.
Shen Qiu rode the Black Knight with ease and arrived at the gate of the Gamma Laboratory in the underground area of Shenxing City.
He parked the Black Knight and headed for the gate.
When approaching, a middle-aged man with a burly back, thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing gray modular armor stretched out his hand to stop Shen Qiu.
"I am the garrison captain, Tang Shi. This is a confidential area. Please show your identity."
Shen Qiu then took out his ID card and handed it over.
Tang Shi took Shen Qiu's ID card, took a look at it, and immediately asked respectfully.
"Are you Lord Shen Qiu, the Third Star Envoy?"
"Yes, can I come in?"
"Okay, but Master Shen Qiu, I have a suggestion."
"you say."
"You'd better take off your mask. A research conference is being held in the Gamma Laboratory right now. All the important researchers are inside. Therefore, a lot of security has been strengthened. If you don't take off your mask, you will definitely be questioned constantly, and it will be difficult for you to move forward."
Tang Shi explained respectfully.
"Thank you. I see."
Shen Qiu then took off the mask and walked straight inside.
Walking along the way, there was a soldier wearing black armor and holding a beam gun standing guard almost every ten meters, and there were also teams of patrolling soldiers.
They looked at everyone who was moving around, but when they saw Shen Qiu walking over, they did not stop them, but saluted them one by one.
Soon Shen Qiu passed through layers of checkpoints and arrived outside the conference hall inside the Gamma Laboratory.
The thick conference door was closed, and it was obvious that a meeting was still going on inside.
Shen Qiu stopped immediately. He had no intention of going in to disturb them. Instead, he leaned against the wall in the corridor and waited for them to finish the meeting.
Since he had nothing to do, Shen Qiu picked up his bracelet and went online to browse the forum to see what was going on with the Red Alliance and how the situation was changing.
At this time, Shen Qiu browsed to a very popular post. The title read "Summary of the latest Red Alliance events", updated in real time!
Shen Qiu immediately clicked on it.
Real News 1: The defense line of Clear Sky City was hit by a new wave of monsters and was torn apart. Ye Han, an emerging hero of the KPI department, stepped forward and single-handedly held the torn defense line for two hours, buying precious time for reinforcements.
Real News 2: The Red Alliance has activated Xiguang Underground City No. 1 and Xiguang Underground City No. 2, and relocated a large number of people! The pressure on the three cities has been reduced sharply.
Real News 3: A large-scale overlap occurred in the City of Glory, resulting in the death of 16,230 people. City Lord Wang Song personally presided over the mourning meeting.
Real News 4: The price of resonators has skyrocketed, and many people have become rich overnight.
…
Shen Qiu continued to flip through the pages. He was also very surprised that so many things had happened recently.
In the conference room at this time.
Vice President Wang Heng stood on the podium and presented awards to the many research doctoral students below with a solemn expression.
"Now please welcome Dr. Chen Bolong to the stage."
Pah pah
Warm applause broke out and Chen Bolun stood up and went on stage.
Vice Speaker Wang Heng picked up a very beautiful platinum badge and handed it to Chen Bolong, commending him solemnly.
"On behalf of the Red Alliance, I sincerely congratulate Dr. Chen Bolong on the successful research and development of the XSC-01 production device. With this device, we can synthesize a large number of necessary survival supplies, greatly alleviating the Red Alliance's increasingly scarce demand for survival supplies."
Suddenly, there was even more enthusiastic applause at the scene.
"Thanks!"
Chen Bolong bowed to everyone and then walked off the stage.
"Now please invite Dr. Muchen to the stage."
Vice Speaker Wang Heng then announced.
Muchen immediately stood up and walked towards the conference podium amid warm applause.
At this time, a 30-meter-tall weapon appeared on the screen behind the conference table. The entire weapon was made of silver-white metal parts, with nine restraining mechanical dragon claws in the center. The whole device gave people a very strong visual impact.
"On behalf of the Red Alliance, I would like to congratulate Dr. Muchen on the successful development of the NLX-01 energy restraint device. With this new device, we will be more confident in fighting against unknown monsters in the future. In addition, Dr. Muchen has also made unprecedented breakthroughs in the field of cell activity research. Let us congratulate him with warm applause."
Wang Heng introduced it vividly.
Pah pah
Suddenly, the entire conference hall was filled with even louder applause.
Vice President Wang Heng then handed the badge to Muchen.
"Thanks!"
Muchen took the medal, bowed and thanked him, then walked off the stage.
Vice Speaker Wang Heng cleared his throat and continued speaking.
"Now please invite the last award winner, Dr. Sun Yue, to the stage."
At this time, a young man with a few pimples on his face, a somewhat arrogant look, and wearing a white research coat walked onto the stage.
Vice President Wang Heng picked up a platinum badge and handed it to Dr. Sun Yue, while speaking to everyone.
"On behalf of the Red Alliance, I congratulate Dr. Sun Yue on the successful development of a new type of single-body mechanical weapon, the Iron Guard! The birth of this weapon will greatly improve the combat capabilities of ordinary soldiers."
As Wang Heng finished his words, the Iron Guard appeared on the screen behind him.
The so-called Iron Guard is a mecha with an extremely simple structure. It is only 3.5 meters high, with the operating cabin on the chest. It is made of printed materials. Its hands are equipped with two 12.7MM caliber Fire Snake machine guns and a grenade launcher. It has light and agile mobility. The most important thing is that it is cheap and can be mass-produced quickly.
Pah pah
Everyone at the scene burst into applause.
"Thanks!"
Dr. Sun Yue received the badge and thanked everyone.
"Well, today's commendation meeting is about to end. Let me say a few words in the end. Everyone present here is the backbone of the Red Alliance. It is because of your existence that the Red Alliance can continue to move forward. But now the Red Alliance is in crisis and urgently needs various advanced technologies. I hope that everyone can learn from all the award-winning doctors and make breakthroughs as soon as possible."
"OK."
Many doctors present responded.
"Very good, I officially declare this conference a successful conclusion."
Vice Speaker Wang Heng immediately announced, and then he hurriedly left from the backstage.
All the doctors present stood up at once and left the stage talking and laughing.
Qi Lin looked at the scene with an expressionless face and sat on the chair, his hands crossed in front of his chest, looking like a boss.
At this time, Muchen stood up and walked towards Qi Lin.
Just then, Dr. Sun Yue and several other doctors came over and called out to him.
"Dr. Muchen."
"Hmm? What's going on?"
Muchen looked at Dr. Sun Yue and asked politely. He was still very polite to the new genius doctor born in the institute.
"Are you going to look for Qi Lin?"
Dr. Sun Yue asked with a smile.
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Dr. Muchen, why are you looking for him? Qi Lin has a bad temper and likes to curse people. Why would you care about him? And the most important thing is that he is arrogant and unwilling to communicate with others. As a result, he has no scientific research results now, and he didn't even have a share in today's commendation meeting."
Dr. Sun Yue simply criticized Qi Lin as worthless.
"That's right. He's usually pretty arrogant, but now he doesn't even have any research results. You see, no one wants to get close to him."
Several doctors nearby echoed this.
At this time, Qi Lin, who was not far away, took a look over here. Although the distance was a bit far, Qi Lin still heard something more or less, but he didn't care at all and just thought it was a few dogs barking.
Muchen couldn't help but look at Dr. Sun Yue and the others again. In fact, Muchen was not surprised at all about what they said.
After all, Qi Lin's interpersonal relationships are really bad. Now that he has not produced any research results, many people have begun to take advantage of his misfortune, thinking that this is an opportunity to suppress him.
Of course, they don’t know that it’s not that Qi Lin doesn’t have research results, but that he hasn’t presented them.
Muchen spoke in a calm tone.
"I'm sorry, I don't agree with your idea. And I have the right to be close to whoever I want."
Sun Yue and others were also stunned. They didn't expect Muchen to say that.
Muchen ignored them and walked straight towards Qi Lin.
Sun Yue's expression suddenly darkened and he was extremely annoyed, but he didn't dare to directly criticize Muchen. After all, Muchen now had a very high status and very good interpersonal relationships, so he could only snort coldly.
"Dr. Muchen is so willful and won't listen to other people's advice. Sooner or later, he will suffer a great loss."
"that is."
Several doctors beside him responded one after another.
At this time, Muchen walked up to Qi Lin and said with a smile.
"Let's go together."
"Let's go. Don't come to this meaningless meeting next time. It's a waste of time."
Qi Lin replied coldly.
Mu Chen suddenly smiled bitterly, and while walking out with Qi Lin, he persuaded him.
"You'd better say less. If others hear you, they will complain about you again."
"Hmph. Whatever."
Qi Lin didn't care at all.
Just as Qi Lin and Muchen walked out of the conference hall, they saw Shen Qiu waving at them from afar while leaning against the corridor.
"Shen Qiu?"
Muchen said in surprise.
Qi Lin was also a little surprised that Shen Qiu actually came here to wait for them, so he walked over with Muchen.
"Are you finally done with the meeting? You kept me waiting for so long."
Shen Qiu said to the two of them with a smile.
"What do you want from us?"
Qi Lin didn't bother to respond to Shen Qiu's complaints and asked directly.
"I have something good to show you."
Shen Qiu said with a smile.
Mu Chen also became interested for a moment. You know, it must be extraordinary if Shen Qiu said it was a good thing, so he asked.
"Can I come too?"
"Of course."
When Shen Qiu saw Muchen also joining in, he smiled even more brightly, that smile was just like a big bad wolf luring a little white rabbit.
At this time, Sun Yue and others also came out. They saw Qi Lin and Muchen chatting enthusiastically with Shen Qiu.
Sun Yue also said in surprise.
"Isn't that the third star envoy Shen Qiu?"
"yes."
"Why does Qi Lin seem to be chatting with him so intimately? Are they close friends?"
"We don't know this either?"
Several doctors present were also surprised.
Dr. Sun Yue's eyes immediately revealed a hint of jealousy and annoyance. It would have been fine if Qi Lin had been extremely talented and produced numerous research results in the past.
As a result, now that he has run out of ideas, he can still have such a good relationship with the Star Envoy. He is really blind.
Unfortunately, no matter how angry Dr. Sun Yue is, it will be of no use.
At this time, Shen Qiu hooked his arm around Qi Lin's shoulder with a smile on his face, and walked out talking and laughing.
…
Not long after.
Shen Qiu, Qi Lin and Muchen returned to the Black Owl Research Institute laboratory.
Qi Lin asked Shen Qiu.
"What good stuff is that? Take it out and let us see it."
"no problem."
Shen Qiu was already accustomed to Qi Lin's character. He immediately took out a mechanical capsule from his pocket and threw it on the ground, then took out the hard drive that was removed from the Abercrombie laboratory.
"What's this?"
Qi Lin looked at Shen Qiu with a frown.
"Good stuff, you can read the information inside."
Shen Qiu handed the hard drive directly to Qi Lin.
Qi Lin took it without any further ado and walked towards the laboratory workbench. Muchen immediately followed him to help.
Shen Qiu leisurely walked to a recliner nearby and lay down, quietly waiting for Qi Lin and the others to crack the scheme. The bait had already been thrown out, and now he just had to wait for the fish to take the bait.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Qi Lin and Muchen to crack the hard drive and read out the research data inside.
The two of them looked at the research materials and their expressions became a little tense.
Qi Lin immediately rushed over to ask Shen Qiu.
"Where did you get it?"
"Have you heard of Shengyue Group?"
"I have heard of it, what's wrong?"
"From their laboratory."
Shen Qiu smiled brilliantly.
When Muchen heard Shen Qiu's words, he took a breath and said.
"You, you actually dared to rob the laboratory of Shengyue Group? Those people are not easy to mess with."
"There's nothing we can do about it. It's already been taken."
Shen Qiu replied with a smile.
"So what? I'm asking you now, where are the things they were researching? Don't tell me you only took the hard drive, but didn't take the most important things?"
Qi Lin looked at Shen Qiu with fanaticism on his face.
"Oh, you mean the same thing as the brain."
"Hurry up and tell me, don't be so careless."
"Robbed!"
Shen Qiu saw that Qi Lin's patience had reached its limit and immediately replied.
"Give me!"
Qi Lin couldn't wait to reach out to Shen Qiu.
"Brother, that thing is quite big, there is no way I can carry it with me."
"Where is that?"
"Of course I hid it. Now Shengyue Group is frantically looking for the lost items. I have to be careful."
Shen Qiu said with a smile.
"What do you mean? How can we study without anything?"
Qi Lin asked with a frown on his face.
"Don't worry, I haven't finished what I'm saying yet. I've built a new advanced laboratory, and the things are stored there and are absolutely safe. Do you want to consider going there to do research?"
Shen Qiu asked with a smile.
Qi Lin reacted immediately after hearing these words, and he replied in a cold voice.
"If you want me to move to your place, just tell me straight away. Why are you beating around the bush?"
"Oh, don't say that. Isn't this research that needs to be kept secret? The Black Owl Research Institute isn't secure enough."
Shen Qiu smiled and explained.
"Okay, I agree for the sake of the stuff."
Qi Lin finally agreed to Shen Qiu.
Shen Qiu suddenly couldn't stop smiling, but he still suppressed his excitement and looked at Muchen.
"Dr. Muchen, do you want to come together? You can do research with Qi Lin. It would be fun for two of you to work together."
Muchen was very conflicted for a moment when he heard Shen Qiu's invitation, but he finally couldn't resist and spoke.
"Okay, I'll go too!"
"Then it's settled. This is Huang Lang's contact information. When the time comes, just contact Huang Lang directly. He will arrange everything."
Shen Qiu was afraid that the two would go back on their word, so he finalized the matter directly and quickly sent Huang Lang's phone number to Qi Lin.
"Well, once I'm ready, I'll have Zhang Shi dismantle the experimental equipment and transport it to the City of Stars."
Qi Lin said to Shen Qiu very straightforwardly.
"No problem, but there is something I need to tell you."
Shen Qiu spoke to Qi Lin and Muchen very seriously.
"What is it?"
"If you want to bring people to participate in the research, you must trust them and never leak any secrets."
"I see."
Qi Lin nodded in response.
"That's good. By the way, can I ask you something? What exactly is Shengyue Group researching?"
Shen Qiu asked curiously.
"Why are you asking so many questions? You don't have to get involved in things that are not your business. You will know after you finish the research."
Qi Lin replied bluntly.
"Haha, okay..."
"There is one more thing you need to prepare."
"What's going on?"
"Prepare 10 billion Blue Alliance coins as research funding for us."
"10 billion Blue Alliance coins!"
Shen Qiu’s eyes widened.
"Do you think research doesn't cost money? This project is very expensive. Even I can't afford it. As for Muchen, don't count on him. He survives on his salary."
Qi Lin replied unhappily, as if he was looking at a fool.
Muchen felt very embarrassed when he heard Qi Lin's words, but he didn't know what to say because all his research funds were allocated by the Red Alliance.
He really doesn't have the money for a private research project.
Shen Qiu suddenly realized at this moment that it turned out that Qi Lin had paid for his help in researching things in the past.
Thinking of this, he felt a little embarrassed and quickly agreed.
"As for the money, I'll find a way."
"Take your time to figure it out. I still have the initial expenses."
Qi Lin also knew that he wanted a lot, so he didn't make things difficult for Shen Qiu.
"good."
Shen Qiu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Qi Lin waved at Shen Qiu and impatiently ordered him to leave.
"That's it. You can leave now! Don't disturb us while we study the information."
Shen Qiu also said with a wry smile.
"Leave immediately."
Muchen then waved goodbye to Shen Qiu.
"Take care, Mr. Shen Qiu."
"good!"
Shen Qiu turned and left the laboratory.
…
…
City of Stars, 3rd Ring, Deep Blue Villa.
In the luxurious hall, Zhou Sheng was wearing loose pajamas, sitting on a furry snow bear leather sofa, holding a glass of deep red wine in his hand, and he was shaking the glass gently.
At this time, Zhao Yun walked in and reported to Zhou Sheng respectfully.
"Sir, Zhou Yan is back. He wants to see you and talk about something urgent."
Zhou Sheng frowned slightly, his expression darkened. At this point in time, Zhou Yan should be in the other world, but he rushed back in a hurry. Even a fool would know that something had gone wrong, but Zhou Sheng still kept his composure and replied.
"Let him in."
"yes!"
Zhao Yun responded respectfully and then walked out.
Soon Zhao Yun led Zhou Yan in, who was leaning on a mechanical crutch.
Zhou Yan's face was extremely pale at this moment, and his lips were trembling slightly, and it could be seen that he was extremely nervous.
"What happened?"
Zhou Sheng asked directly.
At this time, Zhou Yan fell to his knees in front of Zhou Sheng and reported in a trembling voice.
"Sir, our factory and laboratory have been looted."
When Zhou Sheng heard Zhou Yan's words, he immediately smashed the wine glass in his hand to the ground.
Bang~
The crystal clear glass shattered into pieces, and the deep red wine spilled all over the floor.
Zhou Sheng stood up in extreme anger and said to Zhou Yan fiercely.
"Say it again!"
“Our factories and laboratories were looted.”
Zhou Yan said, trembling all over.
"Everything was looted?"
Zhou Sheng still didn't quite believe it, so he confirmed it again.
"Everything was looted, whether it was finished products, raw materials, production lines, or laboratory research materials. All were looted, and everyone was killed."
Zhou Yan said with extreme fear.
"What do you do? There are so many experts and troops there, how can your lair be looted?"
"Sir, we really tried our best. We were clearing the mechanical cube in the center at the time. When we heard that the base was attacked, we immediately returned to provide support, but it was too late."
“Who did it!”
"We don't know who did it. The other party was very cunning. They controlled the mechanical army of the Farmen Kingdom to attack us without showing their faces. And when we returned to fight, they also dismantled the entire base."
Zhou Yan explained tremblingly.
When Zhou Sheng heard Zhou Yan's words, his expression changed and then he spoke.
"No, if it's as you said, then the other party must have planned it in advance! Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to do it so perfectly."
When Zhou Yan heard Zhou Sheng's words, he immediately agreed.
"My Lord, I think so too! This was a premeditated attack. And there must be something wrong with the forces we are cooperating with. I now seriously suspect that Warhammer Heavy Industries is robbing the other gangs. Because only they have such a big hand, and they have enough technology to control the mechanical army."
After hearing Zhou Yan's words, Zhou Sheng's brows were twisted into a mess, but he finally spoke.
"It can't be a Warhammer!"
Although all signs point to Warhammer, Zhou Sheng is very clear that Warhammer is in the same boat with him and would never do such a thing.
"That's the Gray Alliance. They are very suspicious. The Gray Alliance has always wanted to join the City of Stars. It's possible that they sold us out in order to please Speaker Oroco."
Zhou Yan quickly changed his target.
“You mean it was Oroko Council President who did it?”
"It's possible, sir. Think about it! You just accepted his order and shipped the materials here, and then something happened at the base. It's too coincidental."
"Do you have any evidence?"
Zhou Sheng asked with a very ugly expression.
"No, but it can't be the defeated church that did it, right?"
Zhou Yan swallowed and said.
"It's not impossible. The defeated church has always been ruthless. In short, these people are all suspects. Send someone to keep an eye on them."
Zhou Sheng spoke directly.
"Yes, yes."
Zhou Yan responded quickly.
At this time, Zhao Yun also asked with a frown.
“Sir, now that the factory is destroyed and the materials are lost, what about the order from Speaker Oroko?”
"What can we do? Of course we have to find a way to deliver the goods. Do you dare not deliver the order of Speaker Oroko?"
Zhou Sheng said angrily.
"But sir, we don't have the resonator now, what can we use to deliver the goods?"
Zhou Yan replied tremblingly.
"Recover some resonators from the guys down there."
"But that's not enough."
"Idiot, if you don't have enough, get it from somewhere else. Collect a large number of resonators from individual teams. If they don't know what's good for them, let the people from the Church of the Defeaters snatch them away! I don't care what means you use, you must get the goods that Speaker Oroko wants."
Zhou Sheng said with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Yes, but what if he continues to place orders? Now the production line is gone, and the two most critical machines are gone too. We have no way to produce at all."
"If he doesn't answer, tell him that there's a problem with the production line. If he wants the technology, give it to him!"
"good!"
Zhou Yan responded quickly.
“Also, keep an eye on the market from now on to see who is selling the resonators in large quantities.”
Zhou Sheng then gave the order.
Zhao Yun reacted immediately and said.
"Sir, you mean whoever sells it is the one who did it?"
"That's right! And Zhou Yan, you must return to the Famn world immediately and organize people to attack the central mechanical cube. Since such machines can be found in the external base, there must be some in the mechanical cube as well. Take them down quickly."
Zhou Sheng made arrangements very decisively.
"yes!"
Zhou Yan responded immediately.
"Listen to me, if anyone messes up again this time, don't blame me for being rude."
Zhou Sheng warned with murderous intent.
"yes!"
Zhou Yan and Zhao Yun shuddered and responded.
