The next morning, Qin Ze got up feeling refreshed.
There's still over a day left before the Correction Mission ends, which is plenty of time.
Giant Overlord woke up from his coma this morning, but he is still very weak.
Qin Ze did not plan to take him on this trip to the research institute.
It's just a formality; I can do it all by myself.
After thinking it over, Qin Ze decided to go into battle alone.
Not just the Giant Overlord, but nobody else either.
Giant Overlord sat on the edge of the bed, rubbing his head.
His last memory was of a giant foot coming straight at him.
The Dharma King stood by, gloating.
"You almost got sent away by Qin Dog."
Qin Ze scoffed as he passed by, "You don't know anything. I was protecting the Giant Overlord."
The Dharma King grinned. "So, hitting someone is a sign of affection, and scolding someone is a sign of love."
Giant Overlord shook his head.
Such a fatal love is better left unfulfilled.
I'll take a stroll outside the city.
"You guys can stay home and tidy up your things if you have nothing to do."
"We'll set off for the Northern Territory no later than tomorrow or the day after."
The Dharma King nodded. "Yes, Troupe Leader."
The early winter Sea Capital were already a bit chilly.
Qin Ze stepped out the door, and a thin layer of white mist enveloped the street.
Freight trucks travel between Sea Capital and various cities every day.
Qin Ze hitched a ride out of the city.
On the way, he sensed something and took out the communication card that Brother Yuanzi had given him from the ring.
The card contained a message from Brother Yuanzi.
"The law enforcement and Military Department Inspection Team from Sea Capital Law Enforcement have already set off and will arrive at the research institute in an hour."
Qin Ze put the card away.
He arrived an hour later.
Brother Yuanzi has already made everything perfectly Bai Bai.
This Correction Mission couldn't be easier.
Half an hour later, Qin Ze arrived at the edge of the forest and left the freight convoy alone.
Following the coordinates given by Brother Yuanzi, he began searching for the research institute in the forest.
Boom boom boom--
Just then, the roar of a car engine suddenly rang out not far away.
Qin Ze immediately slipped into the Shelter Space and concealed himself.
A moment later, two jeeps drove up in the opposite direction, bearing the markings of the Sea Capital Law Enforcement.
"These are the people Brother Yuanzi was talking about."
Qin Ze leaped up and jumped onto the roof of the first car, catching another ride.
Twenty minutes later, a three-story building came into view.
Security was very basic.
There wasn't even a security guard at the entrance, just an old man watching over it.
Upon seeing the vehicle of the Sea Capital Law Enforcement, he offered no resistance and simply raised the gate's boom bar.
Qin Ze glanced at the sign on the gate, which read " Sea Capital Environmental and Geological Research Institute ".
The two vehicles drove into the yard and stopped.
Three people got out of each car.
The first three were a judge, accompanied by two ordinary Law Enforcement officers.
The three men behind them were wearing military uniforms.
Judging from the faint fluctuations in their qi and blood, Qin Ze determined that the leader was only at level four.
He followed the group into the research institute from the Shelter Space.
The receptionist was understandably flustered when she saw the joint Law Enforcement officers.
The judge flashed his badge and said in a deep voice, "I need to see your director."
The receptionist immediately made a phone call.
Two minutes later, a middle-aged man strode out of the elevator.
The director seemed to have received the news beforehand; his face remained expressionless.
Please follow me.
The director led everyone to take an elevator tucked away in a corner.
After entering a complex password and undergoing iris recognition, the elevator began to slowly descend.
Qin Ze was not surprised.
The main part of the Polaris Research Institute is buried deep underground.
Inside the elevator, the director sighed silently.
"We have just made a breakthrough in the Humanoid Combat Weapon Project."
"Especially regarding research on the spirit, the samples have only just been created."
The research institute has devoted a great deal of manpower and resources to this project.
He was truly unwilling to give up just like that.
The captain of the Military Department Inspection Team said in a deep voice, "This is a decision from above."
"You don't need to know the reason, just do it."
The director remained silent.
After the elevator descended more than ten meters, the doors finally opened.
Before me was a corridor similar to that of the Shi'an Research Institute.
There is an alloy gate every ten meters.
Only authorized personnel can pass through.
The director led the Joint Law Enforcement Team all the way to the central laboratory.
As soon as Qin Ze entered the central laboratory, he saw two familiar faces.
Nangong Qianrou lay quietly on the laboratory bed.
He was wearing a transparent helmet.
Various colored data cables were plugged into its body.
Next to it is a machine that is two meters tall.
Qin Ze was very familiar with this machine.
He just used it yesterday.
Human-Spirit Separation Machine.
To the left of the peeling machine is a huge transparent tank.
There was a large clump of light blue slime inside.
It moves around and around, making a "buling buling" sound.
The target of this Correction Mission is the Spirit of Primordial Origin.
Compared to the Spirit of Eternal Life in Otherworld, it was merely an infant in swaddling clothes.
The thing inside the jar was constantly emitting fluctuations of spiritual energy.
Extremely weak, at most at the level of Level One Martial Artist.
Qin Ze found it hard to believe that such a tiny little thing would one day become a being close to Demigod.
Not far from the experimental bed, Professor Lin Siyao was looking at the various data indicators on the screen.
"Everything is normal." She Nangong Qianrou on the bed, "Your spiritual strength is very high; after merging with the sample, it will become dominant."
"Therefore, your spirit will be further strengthened."
"After that, we will create a body that matches your needs."
Nangong Qianrou on the bed showed no expression or reaction.
She stared blankly at the ceiling.
I wonder what he's thinking.
Lin Siyao, no longer wanting to make a fool of herself, began a final check of the experimental equipment.
"It's over."
The captain of the Inspection Team walked up to Lin Siyao and showed her a document jointly signed by the Continental Alliance Council and the Military Department.
"We are Joint Law Enforcement Team."
"Effective immediately, the Humanoid Combat Weapon Project is officially terminated."
"Any related materials, samples, or facilities shall be destroyed on site."
"No private individual or organization may develop Humanoid Combat Weapon Project; violators will be subject to military law."
Upon hearing this, Lin Siyao's face turned ashen. She looked at the director in disbelief and said:
"Chief, tell me this isn't true!"
The director smiled wryly, " Xiao Lin, you've worked hard these past few days. Go home and get some rest."
Thump--
Lin Siyao collapsed to the ground, utterly dejected.
The judge helped Nangong Qianrou up from the bed and removed the tangled threads from her body.
The Inspection Team then led his subordinates to examine the data on the computer.
The central laboratory has been closed.
No one is allowed to enter or leave the area until the investigation is completed.
Nangong Qianrou was a little confused, and that adorable blank expression appeared on her face again.
Qin Ze sat in a chair at a distance, watching the Joint Law Enforcement Team at work.
This feeling of being a hands-off manager is absolutely wonderful.
After the documents were destroyed, the Law Enforcement Team turned their attention to the Spirit of Primordial Origin inside the jar.
Lin Siyao suddenly got up and ran to the lab bed. She put on a helmet and looked frantic.
"These are the fruits of my countless days and nights of hard work. How dare you destroy them?"
The Inspection Team immediately put down what he was holding and tried to calm him down. "Professor Lin, you're getting a little agitated."
"Please calm down. If you have any objections, you can raise them with the Council."
Lin Siyao sneered, "I will prove to you that my experiment is correct!"
Immediately, she pressed the start switch on the peeling machine.
