Miss Jiang Chengcheng stayed behind, seemingly to report on her work.
She went over the progress of the "Overlimit Project" with Xu Shi in meticulous detail.
"At present, we can already establish the most basic connection between Ascendant Abilities and electronic unit catalysis."
She spoke seriously. "This is a modified upgrade based on the original 'Sand Nightmare' chip... I also found several Ascendants to test it on, and the feedback has been quite good."
"However, this form of cross-type enhancement is still rather broad. It can only target general directions like speed and strength. We still can't create personalized specialized versions according to your requirements, Chairman Xu, and its stability needs further improvement as well."
As she spoke, she handed Xu Shi a sample.
Xu Shi was not particularly surprised by the result.
"Sand Nightmare" was already available. Back then, to keep Shen He from snatching it, he had specifically sent Su Lin to guard it.
This thing had originally been the latest generation of military-grade tactical chips. It worked with brain-computer interfaces and combat armor to grant users greater combat power. In terms of stability, it might even be better than subdermally implanted nanocircuits.
In fact, Jiang Chengcheng had begun the research even before their partnership started. Now that Prism's team was assisting her as well, it was only natural that she had achieved preliminary results in such a short time.
This was far easier than Shen He's actions in the original story—given his capabilities, Luo Zhikang was the only useful person by his side, while most of his other personnel came from Sin City. Compared with Xu Shi, he was inferior in technology, equipment, funding, and practically every other aspect.
If Shen He could succeed with that sort of setup, Xu Shi would only do better than him.
